Good news: a new blood test, called Mionco-DX, could detect cancer much earlier! Here’s what you need to know, explained simply: What is this new test? Researchers in the UK, from a company called XGenera (originating from the University of Southampton), have created a smart blood test. It uses modern technology (artificial intelligence) to analyze […]
A Smart Aid for Celiac Disease Diagnosis Scientists have developed a machine learning (or AI) model that can assist in diagnosing celiac disease. It photographically analyzes magnified images of small tissue samples (biopsies) taken from the small intestine, just as a medical specialist (pathologist) would do. Why is this important? Faster diagnosis: Sometimes, it […]
Imagine that after surgery for colorectal cancer (large intestine cancer), the doctor could find out, through a simple blood test, if there are still very small traces of the disease in your body and if you truly need chemotherapy. A recent study, presented at Digestive Disease Week 2025, suggests that this might be possible in […]
Recently, doctors and researchers presented the results of a very promising study about a new way to treat certain types of early-stage cancer. This treatment is called immunotherapy and uses a drug called dostarlimab. What is special about this treatment? Helps your own body fight cancer: Immunotherapy is not like chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Instead, it […]
What is being studied? Doctors from five hospitals in France are testing a new method of breast reconstruction after breast cancer surgery. This technique uses a special prosthesis, called MATTISSE, which helps the body reconstruct the breast in a more natural way. How does breast reconstruction usually work? Until now, there were two main methods: […]
Imagine that genes are like instructions in our body that tell cells how to function. Sometimes, these instructions can have small “errors” or changes. This study analyzed whether certain genetic changes in gastric cancer tumors can influence how the disease progresses and how patients respond to treatment. How did they do this? Researchers analyzed in […]
What is PillSense and how can it help you? Imagine a small intelligent pill, called PillSense, that you swallow. This pill was created to help doctors quickly and safely find out if you have bleeding in the upper part of your digestive system (such as in the stomach or the first part of the small […]
What did the researchers want to find out? Doctors wanted to see if there was a link between how much poultry (chicken, turkey, etc.) we eat and the overall risk of death, including the risk of dying from digestive cancers (for example, stomach, liver, intestines). How did they conduct the study? They collected information from […]
A recent study conducted in the United States has discovered something important: more and more young people, meaning individuals under 50, are being diagnosed with certain types of cancer. This trend is particularly observed in women. What did the study show? More cases in young people: Between 2010 and 2019, doctors observed an increase in […]
Recently, health experts, including from the World Health Organization, discussed an important link: some types of cancer can be caused by infections. In fact, in 2022 alone, approximately 2.5 million new cancer cases were linked to an infection. The good news is that if we better prevent and treat these infections, we can reduce the […]
