- X-rays miss it for weeks: How a blood test may spot a common post-surgery condition earlyon March 3, 2026 at 9:40 pm
Heterotopic ossification (HO) is a common post-surgery condition where bone abnormally forms within soft tissues. A new study out of Mass General Brigham assesses the viability of a simple blood test to detect HO long before it can be picked up by imaging techniques. The research is published in the journal Nature Communications.
- Tuberculosis cases have been rising as public health agencies struggle to keep upon March 3, 2026 at 9:30 pm
In Johnson County, Iowa, the number of tuberculosis cases has increased in recent years—and so has the cost of containing it. The cost of contact tracing and surveillance, traveling each day to patients’ homes to ensure they take their meds, or booking hotel rooms to quarantine patients has surged from $17,000 in 2020 to $65,000 last year.
- Brain activity and breathing rhythms operate separately in deepest sleep, finds researchon March 3, 2026 at 9:20 pm
Could the deepest parts of the brain hold some of the secrets of sleep that still remain elusive to science? A team from Hackensack Meridian Health and its Center for Discovery and Innovation (CDI) has produced a new in-depth study penetrating into the brain, finding that during the deepest sleep, breathing patterns and brain activity become more independent from one another—unlike lighter sleep or quiet wakefulness.
- Specific protein and sugar molecules affected by aging and disease identifiedon March 3, 2026 at 9:20 pm
Neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are typically diagnosed after irreversible pathology has developed. Aging, the strongest risk factor, drives molecular changes that predispose the brain to synaptic dysfunction and proteinopathy (neurodegenerative diseases characterized by the abnormal folding, aggregation, and accumulation of specific proteins within neurons or brain tissues).
- Strong alcohol labeling and pricing policy could reduce cancer in Canadaon March 3, 2026 at 9:10 pm
If Canadian jurisdictions mandated warning labels on alcohol and minimum pricing tied to the number of standard drinks in a container, it could prevent hundreds of cancer diagnoses and deaths, according to a new study led by University of Victoria’s Canadian Institute for Substance Use Research (CISUR). The work is published in The Lancet Public Health journal.
