Williamsport, Pa. — After 12 years of working in cardiac surgery surrounded by death, high-stakes decision-making, and exhausted healthcare workers, Lauren Velkoff says one thing kept her going: purpose. “There’s a purpose with death and dying. There’s a purpose with the staff, with the nurses that come to you with everything,” she said. “There’s a purpose on rounds to make sure the day is executed well. There’s so much purpose to it.” Leaving that world was both relief and loss. “I identify with it so much,” she said. “I never thought I wouldn’t be doing that… there’s that whole identity

In a groundbreaking advancement in the field of oncology, researchers Wenxian and Shuwen have unveiled a novel gene set specifically associated with necrosis, aimed at enhancing the prognostic assessment of skin cutaneous melanoma (SCM).

By harnessing the potential of MPT (mitochondrial permeability transition) pathways, the authors have opened new avenues for both predicting patient outcomes and tailoring immunotherapeutic strategies in SCM cases. Melanoma remains one of the most challenging forms of skin cancer, with

Cycle class at a gym on July 18, 2007. www.localfitness.com.au // Contributed Photo. While many people always rave about workout classes at Tremble, TruFusion and Body Hot classes, some of us wonder how to get in a great group workout without spending hundreds of dollars on a membership. The Herbert Wellness Center classes are completely free to students, so let’s test how they compare with five days of different group workout classes.

Chef Menachem Cone has opened a kosher food truck named Ruth, offering what he describes as “world food from a kosher lens” in the parking lot of the Chabad of Burlington community center at 57 South Williams Street in Burlington.

In the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, Hill’s Pet Nutrition performed on par with parent company Colgate-Palmolive’s corporate average on profitability and year-to-date momentum. Hill’s Pet Nutrition accounted for 22% of total company sales and grew net sales 1.4% year-over-year, but its organic sales declined 1.3%, reflecting volume pressure partially offset by pricing.  In the quarter, Colgate-Palmolive’s total net sales rose 2.0% to US$5,131 million, with organic sales up 0.4%, including a 0.8 percentage point drag from lower private label pet sales following the company’s exit from that business.  Hill’s sales volume fell 2.6% in the quarter and organic

BYLINE: Naedine Hazell Newswise — Two therapies can be better than one for treating some cancers, concludes a Yale study published Oct. 22 in the Journal of Clinical Investigation Insight that finds promise in pairing a drug that blocks a distinct immunosuppressive arm of the immune response with an established therapy that boosts the immune system to fight cancer. The protein called MIF, or macrophage migration inhibitory factor, is usually associated with regulation of inflammation, but in certain conditions, such as cancer, MIF fuels cancer growth. MIF suppresses the body’s initial immune response, called innate immunity, which helps the body recognize abnormal cells

Vitamin D is crucial for bone health and immune function by helping the body effectively absorb calcium. However, the recent surge in supplement use has amplified the risk of overdosing (hypervitaminosis D), often occurring when people take high doses without medical oversight. The primary danger lies in the resulting hypercalcaemia, excessive calcium in the blood. The kidneys are forced to filter this overload, causing calcium to deposit in their tissues, a condition known as nephrocalcinosis. This prolonged strain can severely damage the filtering units, leading to acute kidney injury or irreversible failure. Recognising the subtle warning signs is vital, as

Multiple sclerosis (MS) and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) share similar symptoms but are two biologically distinct conditions, with different immune signatures, a study found. These findings help explain why treatments approved for MS generally show limited effectiveness for MOGAD, researchers said. “These findings support MOGAD as its own disease entity, distinct from other neuroinflammatory conditions such as MS,” Anne-Katrin Pröbstel, MD, PhD, who co-led the study from the University of Bonn in Germany and the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases, said in a university press release. The study, “Immune signatures link myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody–associated disease to other
