Following the course of lung function in treatment-naïve patients, researchers found that lung function decline does not accelerate prior to mechanical ventilation.

Identifying suitable patterns in complex biological interaction networks helps understanding network functions and allows for predictions at the pattern level: by recognizing a known pattern, one ...

A new study sheds light on sleep and cognitive changes in older adults. Namely, sleeping for a short amount of time and sleep variability were linked to poor cognitive function, the authors reported.

Researchers have identified a number of nutrient biomarker patterns in blood that are associated with cognitive function and brain volume in older adults.
