A study by FDA and USDA confirms that commercial milk pasteurization effectively inactivates the Highly Pathogenic H5N1 Avian Influenza virus in cattle milk. This ensures the safety of the U.S. milk supply against this virus.

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine, the University of Cambridge and collaborating institutions have discovered that alterations in the human gene TRPC5 cause obesity and postpartum depression.

With a $300,000 grant, the Welch Foundation is supporting University of Texas at Arlington research into creating new materials to safely and effectively deliver medications to treat diseases such as cancer.

A study in Nutrients journal finds that both the quantity and quality of carbohydrates impact inflammation and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Higher refined carbohydrate intake is linked to greater inflammation and CVD, emphasizing the need for personalized dietary recommendations.

A new study reveals that sedentary behavior and increased screen time significantly contribute to the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) among Chinese children and adolescents, with 5.5% affected. Urban living, older age, and higher sedentary time increase the risk of MetS.

A new study found that school-aged children who consumed more isoflavones from soy foods exhibited better thinking abilities and attention.

Scientists at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have uncovered a brain circuit in primates that rapidly detects faces.

When it comes to managing blood sugar levels, most people think about counting carbs. But new research from the University of British Columbia shows that, for some, it may be just as important to consider the proteins and fats in their diet.

Tumors arising in the base of the skull are among the most difficult to remove in neurosurgery. The current treatment method is to perform surgical removal by what is known as the microscopic anterior transpetrosal approach (ATPA).

Schizophrenia, which affects up to 1% of the population, is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by multiple symptoms.

Drugs that selectively kill senescent cells may benefit otherwise healthy older women but are not a "one-size-fits-all" remedy, Mayo Clinic researchers have found.

Whole genome sequencing has improved clinical care of some children with cancer in England by informing individual patient care.

A new study in mice hints at the promise of an eventual alternative treatment option for the "wet" version of age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
