The APPROACH pilot study looked at how well people with cancer could use a smartphone app and extra support to get more exercise. They used a simple app called NHS Active 10, which helped them track their steps and encouraged them to walk faster. On top of that, participants got calls and helpful pr
A standing president has not stepped foot into a NFL's biggest game until 2023, and it was not for free. For instance, Carl’s Jr. have made the choice to bring back the good old days of racy content in its ads has got people talking. Some of them were super excited about the return of those
Organ transport these days is a lot different than it used to be. For most of history, organs were kept on ice during transit before transplant. But that's not the case anymore. Imagine this: a kidney being pumped with a nutrient-rich solution, tracking its journey to the recipient. Now imagine tha
Imagine a special type of metal, Mn-52, that makes it easier to see details inside the body while scanning cancers. With a half-life of 5. 6 days, Mn-52 can stay active for a while, making it great for imaging. Separating Mn-52 safely is tricky, though. Researchers have found a way to use a particl
Cancer treatment has changed a lot with immunotherapy. But herein lies the problem. Some patients do not respond well to treatment. This is on top of having to deal with serious side effects caused by the immune system going into overdrive. Scientists have found a novel way to tackle this
The internet has long become a hot spot for people to voice their thoughts, experiences, and questions about cancer immunotherapy. Doctors and researchers might have a clear understanding of this cancer treatment, but what about everyone else? With the rise of immunotherapy in the medical field, it'
Imagine tiny, urchin-shaped materials that could vastly improve your phone or laptop's battery life. These 3D structures are made from a special material called Wadsley-Roth phase TiNb2O7. This material has a lot of potential for making better batteries, but it's not perfect. It faces issues like s
A recent study explored the use of post-transplant high-dose cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) from mismatched unrelated donors (MMUD) in patients with acute myeloid malignancies. The research focused on whether PTCy, along with a calcineurine inhibitor and my
An interesting thing about lithium-ion batteries is how tiny oxygen holes can boost power. Imagine something really small—that's an oxygen vacancy. These vacancies are missing oxygen atoms in a material. When researchers looked closely at a material called Cu2Nb34O87-x/N-doped carbon composite, they
Microbe detectives dilemmas Colon cancer, unfortunately , affects so many globally. The gut microbiome plays a suspiciously important part in as there is an entire universe living in our guts. Let's learn then about how this microscopic world makes you cancer-rate. So each microbe inhabits a librar
