Ketamine, whether given as an IV, a nasal spray or sublingual, may harm a developing fetus, but a study shows clinics vary greatly in handling patients who could become pregnant during treatment.
In a study using human breast cancer cells, scientists say they have potentially identified immune system white blood cells that appear to be the closest neighbors of breast cancer cells that are likely to spread.
Study from the Michigan Child Health Equity Collaborative finds substantial errors across three health systems in racial and ethnic designations in their electronic medical records.
Eating any amount of fish during pregnancy was associated with about a 20% lower likelihood of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnosis, particularly in females, and a slight reduction in autism-related traits in offspring, according to a new study funded by the Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Program at the National Institutes of Health.
A computer model developed by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers significantly enhances the ability of scientists to detect communication between cells, according to a new study published in Nature Methods.
New research reveals that Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) conducted on proprietary blockchains are fundamentally much more likely to succeed in the long term, highlighting the significant impact of network effects on ICO performance.
The researchers used magneto-induced electric field (MIEF) technology to explore the structural and rheological properties of citrus pectin under different pH conditions. This technology is not only green and safe, but also easy to operate and low cost, suitable for industrial application.
Heart failure during pregnancy is a dangerous and often under-detected condition because common symptoms – shortness of breath, extreme fatigue and trouble breathing while lying down – are easily mistaken for typical pregnancy discomforts. Late-breaking research presented at the European Society of Cardiology Congress on a Mayo Clinic study showed an artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled digital stethoscope helped doctors identify twice as many cases of heart failure compared to a control group that received usual obstetric care and screening. Full study findings are published in Nature Medicine.
