Study suggests physicians may need to follow patients with both conditions more closely. A study led by the National Institutes of Health's RECOVER Initiative and supported by NYU Langone Health found that sleep apnea significantly increases the risk of long COVID in adults. The research team ana

The risk of developing long COVID symptoms may be significantly increased in adults with sleep apnea.

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have identified four important signs and symptoms that signal an elevated risk of early-onset colorectal cancer.

Newly-identified red flags may be the key to earlier detection and diagnosis of early-onset colorectal cancer among younger adults.

By applying machine learning to medical record data, scientists found that secondary bacterial pneumonia that does not resolve was a key driver of death in patients with COVID-19. It may even exceed death rates from the viral infection itself. The scientists also found evidence that COVID-19 does not cause a “cytokine storm,” so often believed to cause death.

The first genome-wide significant study of the epigenetics of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) has yielded a trove of genetic mechanisms and pathways that are responsible for this disease, a leading cause of severe vision loss in older adults. AMD results from damage in the macula, which provides clear, straight-ahead vision, and therefore is critical to the ability to read, drive and recognize faces.

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have identified four important signs and symptoms that signal an elevated risk of early-onset colorectal cancer. The incidence of colorectal cancer is rising in people under 50, making it important to recognize such signs.
