Medical Xpress / Early initiation of statins after diagnosis of type 2 diabetes associated with a lower risk of dementia
Early initiation of statins after diagnosis of type 2 diabetes was associated with a lower risk of dementia, according to a study presented at ESC Congress 2026 and published in The Lancet Regional Health – Europe.
Medical Xpress / Machine learning model identifies heart failure with reduced ejection fraction using routine lab indicators
A 13-indicator routine laboratory model shows moderate discrimination for distinguishing heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), according to a study published online Aug. 9 in Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine.
Medical Xpress / Breast cancer survivors could avoid lifelong heart medication, research suggests
Many breast cancer survivors whose treatment caused them to develop problems with their heart function can safely stop their medication after their heart recovers, and most won't need to continue treatment long term, according ...
Medical Xpress / Cardiologist referrals improve cholesterol levels in prostate cancer patients, but may not be necessary for all
Men with prostate cancer have a high risk of heart disease, especially when treated with hormone therapy. A large international, first-of-its-kind study led by Hamilton researchers found that routine referrals to an internist ...
Tech Xplore / Some US cities have begun rewarding careful drivers with fewer red lights
Officials struggled for years to curb high-speed crashes along a residential corridor cutting through Albuquerque, New Mexico, but simply punishing the lead-footed drivers didn't seem to work.
Phys.org / Know your pest pressure: Monitoring is the foundation for managing lucerne seed wasp
Lucerne seed wasp (LSW) is a serious pest in alfalfa crops, causing damage that is difficult to see in the field. Its larvae feed inside developing seeds, meaning losses may not become apparent until harvest, cleaning or ...
Medical Xpress / Major changes made to the ESC Guidelines on heart failure
Reflecting improved understanding and treatment advances, new European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines on heart failure have been published online today in the European Heart Journal and will be presented at ESC Congress ...
Phys.org / The crisis in cosmology continues: Critical problems in a recent defense of cosmic acceleration
Doubts about the standard model of cosmology are deepening after a new study identified fundamental problems in a recent analysis that defended the conventional view that the universe is currently undergoing accelerated expansion ...
Phys.org / Gamma-ray signal could be long awaited evidence for WIMPs
Dark matter is known to make up roughly 85% of all mass in the universe, as evidenced by the way galaxies spin and how galaxy clusters are held together under gravity. Yet despite decades of searching, physicists have never ...
Phys.org / Engineered bacteria offer a new way to accelerate rock weathering for carbon removal
Rock weathering, the breakdown and dissolving of rocks and minerals caused by their exposure to water, air and biological life, is a major regulator of Earth's atmospheric CO2 levels and climate. Throughout Earth's history, ...
Phys.org / Milky Way's own gravity can mimic dark matter clues, stellar stream simulations suggest
Most of the stars in our Milky Way galaxy sit neatly on a flat plane. But the space around our galaxy is much more chaotic. Rogue bands of stars called "stellar streams" orbit the Milky Way much like planets in our solar ...
Phys.org / Mercury's crust points to deeper, hotter volcanic origins than expected
The evolutionary histories of Earth and Mercury differ fundamentally. The smallest planet, closest to the sun, likely began cooling early on, much like a setting pudding: As early as about 1 billion years after its formation, ...
