A study published in iMetaMed reveals that the mTOR inhibitor Everolimus treats ulcerative colitis through a two-pronged approach: inhibiting the CLEC4E inflammatory pathway in macrophages and promoting beneficial gut bacteria that produce propionic acid, thereby restoring the intestinal barrier.

A new Curtin University study has found people diagnosed with sarcoma – a cancer disproportionately affecting teenagers and young adults – are being left without the resources they urgently need.

A new editorial published in Med Research addresses the critical imbalance between rapid technological advancements and global health accessibility. The authors outline a vision for a new interdisciplinary platform designed to bridge the gap between basic research and clinical application, advocating for an open, collaborative ecosystem that ensures medical breakthroughs benefit populations worldwide, regardless of geographic or economic limitations.

Primary malignant pericardial mesothelioma (PMPM) is an exceptionally rare and aggressive tumor originating in the lining of the heart. Due to its ambiguous symptoms and lack of specific guidelines, misdiagnosis is common and survival rates are low. A new expert consensus, published in the journal Med Research, synthesizes multicenter clinical expertise to establish the first standardized protocols for PMPM. The consensus highlights the necessity of multimodal imaging, molecular pathology, and the emerging role of immunotherapy in extending patient survival.
