In March, when the pandemic was in its earliest days, COVID-19 was spreading like wildfire aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier, a ship home to more than 4,000 Navy sailors. In just a matter of weeks, nearly 1,200 sailors tested positive and one died, after the virus spread silently from sailor to sailor. Could […]

Researchers find that common cancer treatments don’t worsen coronavirus infection
A team of researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) reported on the epidemiology of COVID-19 illness experienced at an NCI-designated cancer center during the height of pandemic in New York City. The characterization of COVID-19 in patients with cancer remains limited in published studies and nationwide surveillance analyses. Reports from China and Italy […]
Gene variant staves off Alzheimer’s in some people, scientists find
People with a gene variant that puts them at high risk for Alzheimer’s disease are protected from its debilitating effects if they also carry a variant of a completely different gene, Stanford University School of Medicine investigators report in a large new study. Their findings, to be published Apr. 13 in JAMA Neurology, suggest that […]
Scientists find RNA affecting skin cancer progression
Researchers at the University of Turku, Turku University Central Hospital, and Western Cancer Center (FICAN West) have discovered a new RNA molecule, PRECSIT, which regulates the growth and invasion of squamous cell carcinoma of the skin. In the future, PRECSIT could potentially serve as a new marker for the detection of rapidly advancing or spreading […]
AI helps find signs of heart disease on lung cancer screens
Artificial intelligence (AI) provides an automated and accurate tool to measure a common marker of heart disease in patients getting chest CT scans for lung cancer screening, according to a study presented today at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA). Low-dose chest CT is approved for lung cancer screening in […]
Scientists find timekeepers of gut’s immune system
As people go through their daily and nightly routines, their digestive tracts follow a routine, too: digesting food and absorbing nutrients during waking hours, and replenishing worn-out cells during sleep. Shift work and jet lag can knock sleep schedules and digestive rhythms out of whack. Such disruptions have been linked to increased risk of intestinal […]
Why does tuberculosis find a 65-year-old drug so hard to resist?
Since its discovery in 1954, there have been almost no recorded cases of tuberculosis becoming resistant to the antibiotic drug D-cycloserine (DCS) in patients. With resistance to many other drugs on the rise, a team of Crick researchers set out to find out why DCS has evaded resistance for so long. In a new study, […]
Scientists find biological link between high blood pressure and breast cancer
Researchers have identified a protein that may be a risk factor for both high blood pressure and breast cancer. Previous studies have found women with high blood pressure have about a 15% increased risk of developing breast cancer compared to women with normal blood pressure. High levels of the protein GRK4 (G-protein coupled receptor kinase […]
British volunteers give up alcohol to find out if it improves health
Proof you DON’T need to give up booze to live longer: Fascinating experiment on a group who admit to drinking most days (but not to excess) finds reducing their alcohol intake had surprisingly little impact on their health TMOS recruited volunteers to find out if giving up alcohol improves health New government-guidelines suggest a person […]
