A new study has found a staggering rise in the number of ADHD medication errors among US youth over the last 22 years, most of which occurred at home. The researchers say their findings highlight the need for greater patient and caregiver education to … Continue reading ADHD medication errors in under-20s have increased by almost 300%
Researchers have developed an “inverse vaccine” that reverses the damage caused when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s healthy organs and tissues in autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis, type 1 diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis. It… Continue reading “Inverse vaccine” reverses autoimmune diseases like MS, diabetes & arthritis
Researchers have found that an intranasal immunotherapy drug, currently being tested as a treatment for multiple sclerosis, reduced brain inflammation and improved cognition in mice with Alzheimer’s disease, independent of the amount of beta-amyloid plaques present. They say the treatment could benefit people in the later stages of the disease.

A new study has proposed the ideal snoozing strategy when you’re staying up all night, examining whether taking no naps, one long nap or two shorter ones is better at combatting drowsiness and fatigue and maintaining work performance.Continue ReadingCa… Continue reading The best snoozing strategies for surviving an “all-nighter”
Researchers have used a low-emissions method to harvest hydrogen and graphene from waste plastics. They say it not only solves environmental problems like plastic pollution and greenhouse gas production, but the value of the graphene by-product could o… Continue reading Low-emissions flash method upcycles waste plastic into “free” hydrogen
Researchers have analyzed available topical and systemic treatments for eczema and identified the ones that are most effective. They say their findings present a full range of treatment options to inform the optimal management of this common chronic sk… Continue reading The most effective treatments for eczema according to science

Researchers have identified how the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19 takes advantage of our cellular machinery to replicate and spread in the body, and, importantly, a way to stop it. The finding could lead to the development of a new class of ant… Continue reading COVID’s – and other viruses’ – Achilles’ heel identified
Two new studies have found that using focused ultrasound to open up the blood-brain barrier generated a positive immune response in the brain and allowed for the admission of gene-editing technology. The technique could be a non-invasive way of treating neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.
