Machine learning gives nuanced view of Alzheimer's stages

A Cornell-led collaboration used machine learning to pinpoint the most accurate means, and timelines, for anticipating the advancement of Alzheimer’s disease in people who are either cognitively normal or experiencing mild cognitive impairment. The modeling showed that predicting the future decline into dementia for individuals with mild cognitive impairment is easier and more accurate than […]

90% of young women report using a filter or editing their photos before posting

AIHBA / By Editor

Professor Rosalind Gill, from City, University of London’s Gender and Sexualities Research Centre, has today published a new report to mark International Women’s Day. The report — Changing the Perfect Picture: Smartphones, Social Media and Appearance Pressures — is based on research with 175 young women and nonbinary people in the UK. Covering a range

Researchers identify drug resistance factors for advanced prostate cancer

AIHBA / By Editor

In a new study published in Molecular Cancer Research, Mayo Clinic researchers identified critical genomic changes in response to abiraterone acetate/prednisone, a standard treatment option for men with progressive, incurable and castration-resistant prostate cancer. “We defined a potential strategy for both responders and nonresponders of the drug that may help men overcome resistance and prolong

Decades-long suffering from obstetric injuries

AIHBA / By Editor

Bowel leakage, the need for anal incontinence protection and a restricted social life may cause severe, decades-long suffering among women with obstetric injuries to the anal opening, according to a study from the University of Gothenburg. The study, published in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, comprises a total of more than 11,000 women

Potential hidden cause of dementia detected

AIHBA / By Editor

A new Cedars-Sinai study suggests that some patients diagnosed with behavioral-variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) — an incurable condition that robs patients of the ability to control their behavior and cope with daily living — may instead have a cerebrospinal fluid leak, which is often treatable. Researchers say these findings, published in the peer-reviewed journal Alzheimer’s

3D 'bioprinting' used to create nose cartilage

AIHBA / By Editor

A team of University of Alberta researchers has discovered a way to use 3-D bioprinting technology to create custom-shaped cartilage for use in surgical procedures. The work aims to make it easier for surgeons to safely restore the features of skin cancer patients living with nasal cartilage defects after surgery. The researchers used a specially

New epigenetic markers for prostate cancer discovered

AIHBA / By Editor

New epigenetic biomarkers to predict more aggressive forms of prostate cancer have been discovered by scientists at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research. The biomarkers can be used in combination with traditional clinical tools to predict if a man will go on to develop a more metastatic and lethal form of the disease and could

Previously unknown cell mechanism could help counter cancer and aging

AIHBA / By Editor

As time passes and we get older, many cells need to replenish themselves. They do so by dividing into new cells: Heart cells, skin cells and so on. But when cells continue to divide and make new cells, they lose some of the information from their mother cell. In the end, they may have lost

Wearable sensor uses ultrasound to provide cardiac imaging on the go

AIHBA / By Editor

Engineers and physicians have developed a wearable ultrasound device that can assess both the structure and function of the human heart. The portable device, which is roughly the size of a postage stamp, can be worn for up to 24 hours and works even during strenuous exercise. The goal is to make ultrasound more accessible

Internal compression stocking helps against varicose veins

AIHBA / By Editor

In cases of severe varicose vein disease, dilated veins are usually removed or destroyed. However, when patients later need a bypass due to circulatory problems, the large blood vessels are then not available as a substitute. In a multicentre study led by Dr. Dominic Mühlberger from the Vascular Surgery Department at Ruhr-Universität Bochum’s St. Josef
