Study reveals high alcohol consumption in men increases mortality risks in China
The associations of cause-specific mortality with alcohol intake.
Potential breakthrough in breast cancer: Five proteins identified as risk markers
Researchers used a Mendelian randomization approach to conduct a genetic association analysis of the levels of over 3,000 proteins to identify biomarkers for early breast cancer detection.
Study finds diet-derived trans-vaccenic acid boosts anti-tumor immunity
Dietary components that impact anti-tumor immunity.
Study validates cancer risk reduction through lifestyle adherence
Researchers examined associations between adherence to cancer prevention recommendations by the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF)/American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR) and cancer risk.
Associations between socioeconomic status, clinical variables, and non-COVID-19 sepsis risk
The impact of socioeconomic status and clinical variables on sepsis incidence and mortality.
New computational model simulates cancer cell movement with unprecedented precision
Biomedical engineers at Duke University have significantly enhanced the capabilities of a computational model that simulates the movement of individual cancer cells across long distances within the entire human body.
Study exposes tobacco smoke's alarming impact on breast milk, elevating toxic elements
Study reveals that both active and passive tobacco smoke exposure during pregnancy or lactation significantly increases the levels of toxic micro-elements like mercury, cadmium, lead, and arsenic in breast milk, posing serious health risks to infants.
Traffic-related air pollution raises blood pressure, study finds
For more than a century, American cities have been sliced and diced by high-traffic roadways. Interstate highways and wide arterials are now a defining feature of most metropolitan areas, their constant flow of cars spewing pollution into nearby neighborhoods.
Machine learning unlocks secrets of antimicrobial resistance, identifying over 900 key genes
Researchers employed advanced techniques like gene annotation, pangenomics, and machine learning to identify over 900 genes responsible for antimicrobial resistance in 12 bacterial species, outperforming traditional identification methods. This breakthrough approach offers new insights into the genetic basis of resistance, potentially guiding the development of more effective antibiotics
