Ketogenic Diet Enhances CAR-T Cancer Therapy
Summary: Researchers have found that a ketogenic diet boosts CAR T cell therapy effectiveness by enhancing tumor control and survival in mice with lymphoma. The key is beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), a…
ChatGPT Matches Radiologists in Brain Tumor Diagnosis Accuracy
Summary: Researchers compared the diagnostic accuracy of GPT-4 based ChatGPT and radiologists using 150 brain tumor MRI reports. ChatGPT achieved 73% accuracy, slightly outperforming neuroradiologists (72%) and general radiologists (68%).…
Cancer Drug Shows Promise for Autism Cognitive Function
Summary: A new experimental cancer drug could ease cognitive difficulties for those with Rett syndrome, a rare autism-linked disorder, by enhancing brain cell functions. The drug, ADH-503, improves the activity…
New Technique Shows Promise in Fighting Brain Cancer
Summary: Researchers developed a new method, burst sine wave electroporation (B-SWE), to treat glioblastoma, a fast-growing brain tumor. B-SWE disrupts the blood-brain barrier more effectively than traditional methods, allowing cancer…
Depression and Anxiety Are Not Cancer Risk Factors
Summary: The association between depression, anxiety and cancer risk has been a point of contention in scientific circles. In an new study a multi-national team refutes the idea that these…
