Biology / Biochemistry |
Scientists may have found 'best time' to administer chemo drugs A genome-wide map of busiest DNA repair times could reduce chemotherapy damage to healthy tissue through optimum 24-hour timing of dosage, say researchers. | New protein may help to catch lung cancer early Japanese-based researchers have uncovered a biomarker that may help to diagnose lung cancer much earlier than the current tests can. |
Blood / Hematology |
High-potassium foods to avoid with kidney disease People with chronic kidney disease need to avoid eating potassium-rich foods. Damaged kidneys cannot process potassium properly, which can then build up in the blood and cause weakness, fatigue, and tingling. In this article, learn which high-potassium foods to avoid with kidney disease and what to replace them with. |
Cancer / Oncology |
Why ovarian cancer spreads and how we might stop it A new study unlocks the mystery of ovarian cancer metastasis. The findings may lead to new treatments, using existing drugs to stop tumors from spreading. | Scientists may have found 'best time' to administer chemo drugs A genome-wide map of busiest DNA repair times could reduce chemotherapy damage to healthy tissue through optimum 24-hour timing of dosage, say researchers. | New protein may help to catch lung cancer early Japanese-based researchers have uncovered a biomarker that may help to diagnose lung cancer much earlier than the current tests can. |
Crohn's / IBD |
What causes undigested food to appear in stool? Certain foods, including high-fiber foods and sweetcorn, are more difficult to digest than others. It is normal for a person to notice undigested bits of these foods in their stool. If undigested food in the stool occurs with other symptoms, including diarrhea, they may have a medical condition, such as Crohn's or IBS. |
Dermatology |
Existing drug may be the answer to hair loss Treating hair loss is an ongoing challenge for researchers. A recent paper concludes that an osteoporosis drug may just hold the secret. |
Eye Health / Blindness |
How to get rid of yellow eyes Yellow eyes can result from damage to the liver, pancreas, or gallbladder. These organs help to filter bilirubin, a yellow compound, from the blood. While most cases require medical attention, we look at whether home remedies can be safe and effective. Learn about the causes and treatments of yellow eyes here. |
Food Allergy |
Do nightshade vegetables make arthritis worse? Some believe that nightshade vegetables, including potatoes, tomatoes, and eggplants, may cause inflammation or make arthritis worse. There is no current evidence for this, though some people may be allergic to nightshades. Here, we explore the effects of nightshades and provide tips for an anti-inflammatory diet. |
Food Intolerance |
