| |  A new research paper was published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on June 10, 2025, titled "Exceptional responders to immunotherapy in pancreatic cancer: A multi-institutional case series of a rare occurrence." | |
|
| |  A single dose of a chromium-enriched glucomannan-fructo-oligosaccharide fiber complex significantly reduced postprandial insulin and increased fullness in healthy adults, without affecting blood glucose. These findings highlight the potential of this functional fiber blend to support appetite control and metabolic health. | |
|
| |  A large real-world Italian cohort study found that daily low-dose aspirin use significantly lowered the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The protective effect appears linked to aspirin’s anti-inflammatory properties, though bleeding risks require caution. | |
|
| |  Women who work night shifts are more likely to suffer with moderate or severe asthma compared to women who work in the daytime, according to a study published today (Monday) in ERJ Open Research. | |
|
| |  Hyponatremia, or low blood sodium concentration, is typically viewed as a symptomless condition-until recently. | |
|
| |  A single pellet of recycled plastic can contain over 80 different chemicals. A new study with researchers from University of Gothenburg and Leipzig shows that recycled polyethylene plastic can leach chemicals into water causing impacts in the hormone systems and lipid metabolism of zebrafish larvae. | |
|
| |  The placenta and the hormones it produces may have played a crucial role in the evolution of the human brain, while also leading to the behavioral traits that have made human societies able to thrive and expand, according to a new hypothesis proposed by researchers from the Universities of Cambridge and Oxford. | |
|
| |  Excess fat mass estimated by waist circumference-to-height ratio predicts the risk of liver damage better than body mass index (BMI) estimated obesity, a new study shows. | |
|
| |  Researchers uncovered how estrogen heightens gut sensitivity in females by activating PYY-secreting L-cells, which stimulate serotonin release from EC cells. This paracrine circuit intensifies pain signaling and may explain the sex bias in conditions like IBS. | |
|
| |  New technology that allows a University of Virginia-developed artificial pancreas system to adapt to users' changing bodies – and lets users test changes to how the system operates – improved control of their type 1 diabetes, a study has found. | |
|
| |  Iodine content in plant-based milks is often insufficient, risking deficiencies that affect metabolism and public health, especially in reproductive-age women. | |
|
| |  A clinical trial involving adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) has found a combination therapy may reduce chronic kidney disease and improve health outcomes. | |
|
| |  Pancreatic cancer is a severe illness and major challenge in cancer medicine since it is difficult to diagnose, while potential therapies are scarce. | |
