Hackensack Meridian Health, New Jersey’s largest and most comprehensive health network, announced that nationally recognized orthopedic surgeons are partnering with the network to launch Orthopedic Specialists of New Jersey.
What if your physician could predict if—or when—you might experience a heart attack, cardiac arrest or another heart-related problem?
Multiple myeloma is a rare blood cancer caused by the uncontrolled multiplication of abnormal plasma cells. These plasma cells are a special type of white blood cells that play an important role in the immune system by producing essential antibodies in the bone marrow and lymph nodes.
In a new translational study from UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center, researchers analyzed genetic changes in the organs of recently deceased patients to understand how metastatic cutaneous melanoma spreads in those who had initially benefited from precision therapies.
Researchers at Cornell University have developed a knitted wearable tool to treat hand edema – swelling caused by excess fluid accumulation, from injury or disease – that can be personalized and used in the comfort of one’s own home.
Researcher will discuss the study which involved a sleeping aid known as suvorexant that is already approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for insomnia, hints at the potential of sleep medications to slow or stop the progression of Alzheimer’s disease.
The time period in which muscles heal after injury may depend on biological sex, and applying personalized treatment may help optimize recovery, according to a new study.
Cedars-Sinai investigators are developing a novel way to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and retinitis pigmentosa using engineered stem cells that may eventually lead to personalized treatments.
To address the unique needs of today’s patients with breast disease and breast cancer, the American College of Surgeons (ACS) National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC) has released new standards for accredited centers that place patients at the center of the framework.
Black and socioeconomically disadvantaged patients with peripheral arterial disease have more severe symptoms before bypass surgery – and are at greater risk for amputation and other complications after the procedure, a new study shows. Researchers say health care providers need to recognize the vulnerability of certain subgroups to adverse outcomes and be on alert for early signs and symptoms of PAD to manage patients accordingly.
Cedars-Sinai Cancer’s commitment to convergent science—the deep melding of computational, physical engineering and biological sciences—is evident throughout its 2023 Annual Report.
El uso de la prescripción de opioides puede tener un efecto negativo en la función cognitiva de los adultos mayores de acuerdo con un estudio reciente de Mayo Clinic publicado en la revista de la Sociedad Estadounidense de Geriatría.
A study has found that ketamine may be more helpful in preventing postoperative pain among a subset of patients with a higher tendency toward central sensitization as measured by TSP (temporal summation of pain).
A new study led by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center discovered that co-occurring mutations in three tumor suppressor genes – KEAP1, SMARCA4 and CDKN2A – are linked with poor clinical outcomes in patients with KRAS G12C-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with the KRAS G12C inhibitors adagrasib or sotorasib.
A new CALM mutation causes lethal arrhythmia in humans. Using cardiomyocytes -- or heart muscle cells -- from human iPS cell and recombinant calmodulin proteins, the group studied catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia -- or CPVT, a rare and life-threatening genetic condition. The team was able to reproduce severe arrhythmia in patient-derived iPS cell models of exercise-induced CPVT with calmodulin mutations.
Receber uma massagem de um robô pode parecer algo saído de uma história de ficção científica, mas essa pode ser uma realidade em um futuro não muito distante.
Recibir un masaje de parte de un robot puede parecer algo salido de un cuento de ciencia ficción, pero podría ser una realidad en un futuro no tan lejano.
