On average, people spend more than three hours looking at a cell phone screen. It’s not just a phone, cell phones are used by Google, browsing directions, checking emails, reading news, watching movies, and the list remains optimistic. Studies have shown that cell phone use is associated with obesity, neck pain, and addictive behaviors. "A smartphone is a blessing and a curse," said Drs. Julia Brailovskaia based in Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB) in Germany. To find out how much these substances affect our lives, Drs. Brailovskaia and his team set out to determine if we would be better off without a cell phone. Not entirely without a cell phone, but the team wante...

Doctors rarely detect a tumor before it causes symptoms, and in the meantime, it has spread to other tissues. Of the few patients diagnosed before the cancer spread, the five-year survival rate was about 60%; if not, the survival rate is less than 5%. Drs. Andrew Lowy, clinical director of Cancer Surgery at UC San Diego School, explains Dr. Andrew Lowy, Dr. Medicine. "Pancreatic cancer is known to be very difficult to detect early, in a stage where surgical resection, which is the only treatment option, is possible." Lowy and his colleagues are determined to build a novel test site for cancer early detection. Their method, recently published in Nature Communications Medicine, revealed more than 95% of early pancreas cancers. Their strategy was to break into the network of communication between the cell phones. Extracellular ve...
