    Scientists reverse stroke damage with stem cells

    Stem cell transplantation can reverse stroke damage, researchers at the University of Zurich report. Its beneficial effects include regeneration of neurons and restoration of motor functions, marking a milestone in the treatment of brain disorders.

    One in four adults suffer a stroke in their lifetime, leaving around half of them with residual damage such as paralysis or speech impairment because internal bleeding or a lack of oxygen supply kill brain cells irreversibly. No therapies…

    Stanford scientists reveal simple shift that could prevent strokes and obesity nationwide

    Every spring, Americans dutifully adjust their clocks forward to daylight saving time, and every fall, back to standard time — but no one seems very happy about it. The biannual time shift is not only inconvenient, it’s also known to be acutely bad for our health. The collective loss of an hour of sleep on the second Sunday in March has been linked to more heart attacks and fatal traffic accidents in the ensuing days.

    Now, a study by Stanford Medicine researchers finds there are longer-term…

    Semaglutide may silence the food noise in your head

    New research being presented at the Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Vienna, Austria (September 15-19) shows that individuals who are taking semaglutide for weight loss experience less food noise than before.

    Food noise refers to obsessive and intrusive thoughts about food and eating. This preoccupation with food can hinder healthy lifestyle implementation and lead to overeating, making weight loss difficult.

    Previous research has found that 57%…

    COVID-19 is still a threat, but getting a vaccine is harder for many people

    Traveling across state lines in search of an available shot. Scrambling to get a doctor’s prescription. Showing up for a pharmacy vaccination appointment only to be denied. Those are some of the stories people have been describing to journalists and on social media as they share whether or not they could get the latest COVID-19 vaccine, updated to better match coronavirus strains in circulation.

    This reality contradicts Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy…

    Aging and inflammation are deeply interconnected processes shaping much of the human experience. New scientific findings reveal that healthy aging may be possible by managing chronic inflammation—a phenomenon now called “inflammaging.” For decades, aging was seen as the body’s inevitable breakdown. New evidence is overturning that view. It shows instead that aging reflects a delicate balance between defenses that once…

    Why so many young kids with ADHD are getting the wrong treatment

    Young children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder often receive medication just after being diagnosed, which contravenes treatment guidelines endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics, a Stanford Medicine-led study has found.

    The finding, published on Aug. 29 in JAMA Network Open, highlights a gap in medical care for 4- and 5-year-olds with ADHD. Treatment guidelines recommend that these young children and their families try six months of behavior therapy before starting ADHD…

    New drug could be first to stop deadly fatty liver disease

    Researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine have identified a new investigational drug that shows promise in treating metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), a serious form of fatty liver disease linked to obesity and type 2 diabetes that can lead to cirrhosis, liver failure, and even liver cancer.

    The study, published in the August 23, 2025 online edition of The Lancet, found that the medication, ION224, targets a liver enzyme called DGAT2, which…
