Success after refractive surgery is often measured by visual acuity, but patients also care about how comfortable their vision feels in daily life. Glare, halos, haze, blurred vision, and night-vision discomfort can shape the early postoperative experience even when the eye chart looks excellent. A new prospective cohort study published in Eye Discovery by researchers from the Eye and ENT Hospital of Fudan University and collaborating institutions provides a detailed early picture of both objective and subjective visual quality after keratorefractive lenticule extraction using the VISUMAX 800 platform.

JMIR Publications, a leading Open Access digital health research publisher, and Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) are pleased to announce a two-year extension of their Institutional Publishing Agreement, prolonging their successful partnership through June 30, 2028.

In a randomized controlled trial, researchers tested whether a plant-based, whole-food, complementary-protein meal consumed immediately after a bout of weight training would stimulate a stronger muscle-building response than a nutritionally matched shake made with free amino acids. The study found no differences between the two, even though each contained 20 grams of protein. Both options yielded much lower muscle-protein synthesis than a post-workout meal of 20 grams of lean pork.

BUFFALO, NY — June 23, 2026 — A new research paper was published in Volume 18 of Aging on May 28, 2026, titled “p38MAP kinase regulates senescence in human iPS-derived myocytes.”

A new algorithm could drive breakthroughs in understanding cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, and other potentially fatal conditions.

Researchers from the University of Waterloo developed the machine learning algorithm, called  RNovA, to detect changes in the proteins in human cells.

Brian Adams, MBA, MOT, OTR/L, newly appointed Chief Operating Officer of UH Portage Medical Center, recently celebrated his 20th anniversary with University Hospitals, marking two decades of service rooted in patient care and operational leadership.

A research paper by scientists from Tsinghua University presented a novel text sequence stimulation paradigm that combines periodic visual stimulation with orthographic information and elicits distinct occipital and occipitotemporal scalp response patterns relative to conventional brightness flicker.

The new research paper, published on Jun. 15 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems, developed a novel text sequence stimulation paradigm that dramatically improves user comfort without sacrificing performance.

According to a new study, 3D-printed spine models may support the work of spine surgeons, particularly in understanding highly complex cases and planning surgical procedures. The findings come from a study conducted at the Doctoral School of Semmelweis University and published in the journal World Neurosurgery. The researchers found that the technology could benefit not only physicians but also patients and their families by making it easier to explain spinal conditions and planned interventions.
