New Research Sheds Light on the Initial Stages of Brain Cancer Development

Recent research has identified processes that could lead to the growth of tumors. The research was conducted by a team at the University of Plymouth’s Brain Tumour Research Centre, led by Dr. Claudia Barros. This institution is focused on providing new understanding of certain groups of common, low-grade brain tumors. For their research, the investigators used Drosophila fruit flies. This allowed them to identify changes that could play a role in a healthy cell becoming a cancerous one in the brain. Once this was done, investigators translated their discovery using glioma cells.

The need to reform physician payment is dire, with the American Medical Association (AMA) showing that the system in use at the moment is unsustainable. This comes after Medicare physicians received a 2% reduction in their pay in 2023.  In a statement, Jesse M. Ehrenfeld, president of the American Medical…

Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients Face Heightened Risk of Depression, Study Finds

Recently published data shows that rheumatoid arthritis patients have a heightened risk for developing depression. This study is the first to investigate the link between rheumatoid arthritis and the risk of developing depression. The researchers’ objective was to examine the effect of anticyclic citrullinated peptide and rheumatoid factor antibodies on depression in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and find data on the effect of DMARD prescriptions on rheumatoid arthritis-associated depression. These antibodies serve as markers of illness severity and offer insights into the risk of comorbidity. On the other hand, DMARD prescriptions are often given with other drugs such as NSAIDs…
