Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) is a treatment that sends mild electric pulses to the spine. It's mainly used to help people with nerve pain, also called neuropathic pain. But how does it affect how much people move around and how confident they feel about managing their pain? That's what researchers
Sepsis can cause serious heart problems, often leading to heart failure. This condition is tough to treat, but there might be a surprising helper from the sea: fucoxanthin, a compound found in seaweed. Researchers found that fucoxanthin can protect the heart from damage caused by sepsis. They teste
Diabetes is a huge problem. More than half a billion people around the world have it. In India, especially in the northeast, many people don't know how diabetes can hurt their eyes.
