Senate Review Reveals Screening Mistakes Caused Organ Transplant Failures, Illnesses, Deaths

There have been more than 25,000 organ transplants per year in the United States since the mid-2000s. On average, around 95 organ transplants are carried out in the country per day, with someone being added to the national organ transplant waiting list every nine minutes. Kidney transplants tend to have the highest post-transplant survival rate followed by liver, heart and lung transplants. A recent report from the Senate Finance Committee has revealed a disturbing fact: a lack of oversight in the organization charged with supervising organ testing and transplants in the country has led to dozens of cases of illness…

Researchers Want to Manage Cancer By Keeping Malignant Cells Restricted in Place

Cancer is one of the deadliest diseases on the planet. It affects millions of people across the world, takes more than 10 million lives every year, and still doesn’t have a cure. Most cancer-management therapies involve treatments such as chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy and immunotherapy that are meant to remove the cancer cells as much as possible. However, these treatments aren’t always effective, and many patients have gotten cancer again years after the initial cancer was treated. Always on the lookout for novel therapies that can manage and potentially cure cancer, researchers are now exploring how they can manage and…

Brain Fingerprinting Adolescents Could Predict Future Mental-Health Issues

New research has demonstrated how the uniqueness of the brain of an adolescent may forecast mental-health outcomes. For this study, researchers focused on the adolescent brain, as changes during this period are dynamic and rapid and help form every individual’s uniqueness. Additionally, most mental-health conditions show up during this period, with more than one-half occurring by the time a child is 14 and about three-quarters of mental-health conditions occurring by the time an individual is 25 years of age. The researchers hypothesize that observing and tracking changes in the brain as they occur may make it easier to tackle emerging…

Research Shows Access to Health Insurance Invaluable in Early Cancer Diagnosis

Researchers Leverage Apps in Treatment of TBI

A 1999 report to Congress stated that traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are the top cause of disability and death in children and young adults in the United States. Two decades later, an estimated 2.8 million Americans sustain TBIs every year resulting in 280,000 hospitalizations and 50,000 fatalities. Depending on the region of the brain that received trauma, some patients have to deal with long-term effects, including speech difficulties, trouble with logic and understanding others, and apraxia. The cognitive deficiencies caused by TBIs can result in reduced brain activity and significantly impact the patient’s way of life. Although it is virtually…
