    • Scientists find novel way to slow and even reverse aging of the heart
      24 Jun—Medical News Today
      A new study examines how a lesser-known part of cell biology may impact the aging heart. Specifically, the scientists investigate the extracellular matrix, which helps support the structure of cells, among other things. The authors hope that their study might lead to innovative ways to slow and even reverse the aging of the heart. As we grow older, the body’s organs and systems tend to slow and become less efficient, and the heart is no exception. According to the authors of a new study, the...
    • New AI Model Boosts Radiology Efficiency with Speed, Accuracy
      10 Jun—Healthgrades
      A new study demonstrates how an Artificial Intelligence (AI) tool can transform the workflow of a large radiology department. According to the paper, the tool “doubled efficiency” without impacting accuracy. The bespoke system successfully alerted staff to life threatening conditions prior to review by a radiologist. Researchers at Northwestern Medicine recently designed and deployed an AI system across the radiology departments of their 12-hospital system. On average, radiologists...
    • Could psilocybin help treat IBS? A new study investigates
      6 Jun—Medical News Today
      Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common conditions affecting the gut. Despite its prevalence and decades of research, treatments are limited, and the underlying causes remain shrouded in mystery. An ongoing study, conducted by Erin Mauney, MD, is taking a fascinating new approach to this mysterious condition: psychedelics, and more specifically psilocybin. In this article, we will investigate why researcher Erin Mauney believes psilocybin — the active compound in magic...
    • Alzheimer's affects biological aging, fat metabolism, and gut health, study shows
      21 May—Medical News Today
      Alzheimer’s is characterized by a buildup of proteins in the brain, which disrupts their function. A new study in fruit flies shows that these proteins may also significantly impact the functioning of other organs. The researchers also identified mechanisms that might explain how proteins in the brain can have such wide-reaching effects. A new study in fruit flies concludes that proteins associated with Alzheimer’s disease not only influence brain health, but also have effects further...
    • Fart Walking May Promote Digestive Health, Lower Diabetes Risk. Here’s How
      4 May—Healthline
      A new viral TikTok trend known as “fart walking” involves going for a stroll after eating to help release gas. Proponents say a fart walk helps promote digestive health, while regular fart walking could reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes by preventing blood sugar spikes. While the benefits of this health hack lack scientific evidence, research supports the benefits of movement, particularly after a meal. The internet is awash as ever with dangerous fad diets and expensive health hacks, many...
