Cardiovascular disease is often managed through broad clinical categories: heart failure, cardiomyopathy, ischemic injury, arrhythmia risk.

A large study links long sedentary bouts with higher cancer mortality risk, while light activity breaks may be associated with lower risk.

Cancer cachexia has long been viewed as a systemic inflammatory syndrome driven primarily by tumor-secreted molecules circulating through the bloodstream.

Researchers developed a rapid ex vivo lung cancer platform that tests drug response from small diagnostic biopsies within about two weeks.

Not all immune activity inside a tumor is disorganized. In some patients, tumors contain tertiary lymphoid structures, or TLSs: organized clusters
