Rewriting History: Researchers Uncover a Forgotten Amazon Civilization That May Have Housed 3 Million People

For nearly 1,500 years, the Aquiry civilization shaped southwestern Amazonia, and new research suggests it supported a much larger population than previously believed. Beneath the dense forests of southwestern Amazonia, airborne lasers revealed a landscape covered with geometric earthworks, straight roads, and large ceremonial centers. The remains point to the Aquiry civilization, a multicultural society […]

Why Arthritis Can Come Back Stronger After Cancer Immunotherapy

What if the immune system’s memory of cancer treatment also teaches it how to restart painful arthritis? Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center found evidence that inflammatory arthritis triggered by immune checkpoint inhibitors can repeatedly call on the same populations of immune cells. When the arthritis returns, those cells appear to […]

New Research May Change How We Think About Weight Loss Drugs Like Ozempic

Why do drugs like Ozempic produce far greater and more lasting weight loss than older appetite suppressants? Scientists are beginning to uncover an unexpected answer in the brain. Semaglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic and other GLP-1 medications, may owe part of its remarkable weight loss effects to an unexpected group of brain cells. A […]

Your Teeth May Reveal a Surprising Clue About Pancreatic Cancer Survival

A person’s teeth may hold a surprising clue to how long they survive after pancreatic cancer surgery. In a new study, patients with at least 21 natural teeth survived nearly two years longer, on average, than those with fewer teeth. Researchers suspect that the mouth may preserve signs of inflammation, nutrition, frailty, and other health […]

Coffee Drinkers Show Surprising Differences in Fat, Muscle, and Hormones

Habitual coffee consumption was associated with differences in body composition, metabolism, and sex hormones, but causation remains unproven. A daily coffee habit has repeatedly been associated with lower risks of conditions including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, but exactly how coffee might relate to those health differences remains uncertain. Research from Finland now connects […]

Researchers Discover a Potential Weak Spot in One of the Deadliest Brain Cancers

Targeting SET may make glioblastoma more responsive to radiation and chemotherapy. Glioblastoma can survive attacks that destroy many other cancer cells, helping make it one of the deadliest cancers and leaving patients with few major treatment advances. Researchers at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. […]
