New study discovers tiny molecules found in blood called piRNA could predict whether older adults are likely to survive two ...

As people age, it becomes harder to know who is on track for healthy years ahead and who may be at higher risk for serious ...

Another challenge facing test designers is that early detection may not necessarily save lives. A crucial factor, and something that is still unknown about the new multi-cancer tests, is whether they ...

People who lived longer had lower piRNA levels, suggesting these molecules may play a direct role in how long we live.

Six of these molecules were found to be more accurate at predicting two-year survival than things like age and cholesterol levels.

Duke Health researchers found small RNA molecules known as piRNAs can accurately predict whether older adults are likely to ...

The FDA recently cleared the Lumipulse blood test for early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease in people 55 and over with memory loss. The noninvasive Lumipulse blood test measures the levels of two ...

"No cancer signal detected." The blood test results popped up in my online health portal without much fanfare. A doctor would chat about them with me later, congratulating me on the "phew"-worthy ...

At the very moment there’s a dramatic rise in cancer rates in young people, there’s also a dramatic rise in ads, social media and conversations about new blood tests and scans that claim to catch ...
