The latest advance in wearable robotic technology promises to solve a 200-year-old problem by revolutionizing the fit of prosthetic limbs, transforming the lives of millions of amputees worldwide.
When a person’s hearing and vision are uncompromised and function at a relatively high level, the human brain is able to take in various sights and sounds from any environment and seamlessly allow said person to perceive what’s happening around them.
Ypsomed and CamDiab today announced the launch of the mylife CamAPS FX app for automated insulin delivery on iOS platforms.
A decade of studies provide a growing evidence base that increasing the power of the brain’s gamma rhythms could help fight Alzheimer’s, and perhaps other neurological diseases.
A new, highly efficient process for performing this conversion could make it easier to develop therapies for spinal cord injuries or diseases like ALS.
A researcher at Northeastern University has found a groundbreaking new way to diagnose people with sleep apnea that could open the door for mass screenings of a sleep disorder that affects millions of people.
A team of Ohio University researchers have made a groundbreaking development in the fight against obesity. In a study recently published in Obesity, the researchers highlight a protein that is naturally produced in the body but could potentially be applied to combat weight gain and improve metabolic health in patients with obesity.
A groundbreaking study has uncovered new insights into the pain pathways associated with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. Using an innovative in vivo imaging tool to capture functional activity in mouse models of TMJ injury and inflammation, the discovery could pave the way for more effective treatments for the millions affected by TMJ-related facial pain.
A technology developed by the Brazilian company brain4care has been shown to be able to measure absolute values of intracranial pressure (ICP) more accurately than existing non-invasive methods. This is the result of a study published in the journal npj Digital Medicine by researchers from the University of São Paulo in Brazil, the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom, Emory University in the United States, and the company itself.
Surgical adhesions—common, sometimes life-threatening complications that arise after open or laparoscopic abdominal surgery—can be prevented in mice and pigs by a gel impregnated with a molecule that blocks a key signaling pathway in the formation of scar tissue.
