Researchers Trace Glioma Brain Tumor Origins to Epigenome

Estimates from the American Cancer Society show that doctors will diagnose around 24,000 malignant spinal cord or brain tumors this year, with an estimated 18,990 people losing their lives to the condition. Gliomas are a class of tumors that grow on the brain or spinal cord, applying pressure onto crucial parts of the brain and causing symptoms such as headaches, memory loss, cognitive decline, irritability, personality changes, vision problems, seizures and speech difficulties.

Review Shows AI Could Be Pivotal in Infectious Disease Prevention

How to Leverage Relationship Marketing to Boost eCommerce, Onsite Sales

The past three decades have seen ecommerce rise from a plucky new upstart in an already established business ecosystem to one of if not the most dominant form of commerce on the globe. Companies such as Amazon revolutionized trade in a major way and allowed companies to significantly spread their reach and serve more customers than they could have previously dreamed of before. With many businesses having either merchant websites or a social media presence to help them attract and retain more customers when the pandemic hit, switching to contactless purchases and home deliveries was relatively easy. After over three…

Data Shows Stress Could Trigger Hair Loss

Around 25% of men and 12% of women will suffer some degree of hair loss by age 30. By age 50, half of men and 25% of women can expect to experience some hair loss.

The condition affects more men than women and is often associated with increasing age, genetics, and changes in testosterone levels. Recent data now indicates that excessive hair shedding or telogen effluvium may be caused by stress as well.…

Clinical Trial Testing Modified Viruses as Brain Cancer Treatment Begins

Researchers from Henry Ford Health’s Hermelin Brain Tumor Center have begun working on a brain cancer treatment that would use modified viruses to fight cancer cells.
