The 5:2 diet is effective at achieving weight loss in women with gestational diabetes

Weight loss after gestational diabetes can prevent the onset of type 2 diabetes. Yet finding the most effective way to lose weight and keep it off can be a challenge, especially for mothers with a new baby.

Study focuses on helping shiftworkers to better manage their eating habits

In Australia, one in every five employees are shift workers. But when you work irregular hours, you eat at irregular hours and this can put you at increased risk of weight gain, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.

Neighborhood fast-food environment associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes

An increasing number of studies suggest a link between a neighborhood's built environment and the likelihood that its residents will develop chronic diseases such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes (T2D), and certain types of cancers.

If Congress adds dental coverage to Medicare, should all seniors get it?

William Stork needs a tooth out. That's what the 71-year-old retired truck driver's dentist told him during a recent checkup.

New method reveals changes in protein structure more efficiently and accurately than before

Important processes take place among the subunits of the molecules that make up our cells. Defects in these processes or distortions in the subunits can lead to serious diseases.

SARS-CoV-2 vaccination lowers risk of several outcomes after breakthrough infection

Researchers at the University of Oxford have conducted a study showing that vaccination against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with a lower risk of several sequelae among those who experience breakthrough infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Modulating glycogen metabolism in fat cells may offer new approaches for weight loss

Humans carry around with them, often abundantly so, at least two kinds of fat tissue: white and brown. White fat cells are essentially inert containers for energy stored in the form of a single large, oily droplet.

Researchers develop genetic risk score to predict development of alcohol-induced cirrhosis

An international research group led by the Centenary Institute has developed a world first genetic risk score (GRS) test able to identify patients at high-risk of developing alcohol-related cirrhosis.

Scientists show how cold could alleviate multiple sclerosis symptoms

In evolutionary biology, the "Life History Theory", first proposed in the 1950s, postulates that when the environment is favorable, the resources used by any organism are devoted for growth and reproduction.

Breastfeeding may positively impact postmenopausal women's cognitive performance

A new study led by researchers at UCLA Health has found that women over the age of 50 who had breastfed their babies performed better on cognitive tests compared to women who had never breastfed.

TEDDY study adds to a growing body of evidence that type 1 diabetes is not a single disease

New findings from the international The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study add to a growing body of evidence indicating that type 1 diabetes is not a single disease. The presentation and, perhaps, cause of autoimmune diabetes differs among genetically high-risk children, the research suggests.

Novel Einstein-developed strategy successfully suppresses HIV infections in mice

Armed with a novel strategy they developed for bolstering the body's immune response, scientists at Albert Einstein College of Medicine have successfully suppressed HIV infections in mice - offering a path to a functional cure for HIV and other chronic viral infections.

Skeletal muscle in individuals with type 2 diabetes has a different circadian rhythm, research shows

Almost all cells regulate their biological processes over a 24-hour period, otherwise called a cell's circadian rhythm. To do so, cells use a biological clock that cycles different genes on and off throughout the day and night. Scientists already know that our metabolic health can suffer when our biological clock breaks down, due to shift work or sleep disorders, for example. However, it's unclear how exactly the biological clock of people with type 2 diabetes differs from healthy people.

Researchers develop a new method to remove old cells from tissues to slow down aging

No one knows why some people age worse than others and develop diseases -such as Alzheimer's, fibrosis, type 2 diabetes or some types of cancer- associated with this ageing process.

Breastfeeding and later introduction to gluten may have a protective effect against type 1 diabetes

Research on the role of diet in the development of type 1 diabetes is generally of low evidence, but there are some high-quality studies indicating that longer breastfeeding and later introduction to gluten may reduce the risk of disease.

Researchers identify protein that plays a key role in how the brain regulates appetite and metabolism

Researchers from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University have identified a protein that plays a key role in how the brain regulates appetite and metabolism.

Engineered 3D scaffolds of human brown adipose tissue as a new therapeutic strategy for obesity and diabetes

A group of researchers from various institutes in the USA addressed the limitations of BAT therapy by transplanting a low dose of brown adipocytes (BAs) without Matrigel to determine if this could alleviate high-fat diet-induced OB, metabolic symptoms, and T2DM in mice.
