			<title>A common painkiller may be quietly changing cancer risk</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/01/260120000323.htm</link>
			<description>Ibuprofen may be doing more than easing aches and pains—it could also help reduce the risk of some cancers. Studies have linked regular use to lower rates of endometrial and bowel cancer, likely because the drug dampens inflammation that fuels tumor growth. Researchers have even found it can interfere with genes cancer cells rely on to survive. Still, experts warn that long-term use carries risks and shouldn’t replace proven prevention strategies.</description>

			<title>What will the new cardiovascular risk calculator mean for patients?</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/07/240729125211.htm</link>
			<description>If current guidelines for cholesterol and high blood pressure treatment remain unchanged, a newly unveiled heart risk calculator would render 16 million people ineligible for preventive therapy. Loss of eligibility for cholesterol and blood pressure medicines could lead to 107,000 more heart attacks and strokes over 10 years but may reduce new diabetes cases by 57,000 over the same period. The findings underscore the importance of reexamining current treatment cutoffs in parallel with new risk estimates to better individualize therapy and improve clinical decisions.</description>

			<title>A new method for improving checkpoint inhibitor therapy for cancer</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/06/240620152233.htm</link>
			<description>Research scientists found that a &#039;one-two punch&#039; of combining the immunosuppressive drug ruxolitinib with existing checkpoint inhibitor therapies may be a more effective way to fight some cancers, including Hodgkin lymphoma. Checkpoint inhibitor therapies can be thought of as the molecular &#039;brake release&#039; for the immune system. These drugs eliminate the protein barriers that impede the immune system from recognizing and targeting cancer cells in the body.</description>

			<title>Some blood pressure medicine may decrease the aneurysm rupture risk for people with high blood pressure</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2022/06/220603094902.htm</link>
			<description>A new study has found that RAAS inhibitors, a class of blood pressure-lowering medicine, may be better at reducing the risk of brain aneurysm rupture. People with a brain aneurysm -- a weakened area of a blood vessel -- who were being treated for high blood pressure with medication from the class of drugs called RAAS inhibitors had a significantly lower risk of a ruptured aneurysm compared to those who took other blood pressure medications. These results indicate that RAAS inhibitors may be preferable to other blood pressure-lowering medications and could inform treatment decisions for people with high blood pressure who have unruptured intracranial aneurysms.</description>

			<description>People taking TNF inhibitors, a kind of immunosuppressive drug used to treat rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune conditions, produced a weaker and shorter-lived antibody response after two doses of Pfizer&#039;s COVID-19 vaccine, according to a new study. A third vaccine dose drove antibody levels back up, indicating that this additional dose may provide protection as the virus&#039;s delta variant continues to spread.</description>

			<description>PARP inhibitors, used to treat patients with cancer of the breast, ovaries, prostate and pancreas, work by inducing persistent DNA gaps in tumor cells with BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations. The discovery offers the potential to monitor tumors for the development of resistance to PARP inhibitor therapy, and to identify drug combinations that could prevent drug resistance and improve the efficacy of cancer therapies.</description>

			<description>In an analysis of almost 3 million patients taking a single high blood pressure medication for the first time, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) were as good as angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors at preventing cardiovascular events linked to hypertension, including heart attack, stroke and heart failure. 51 possible side effects and safety concerns were examined: The patients taking ARBs were found to be significantly less likely to develop tissue swelling, cough, pancreas inflammation and bleeding in the digestive tract.</description>

			<title>Choosing common pain relievers: It&#039;s complicated</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/02/200205132318.htm</link>
			<description>About 29 million Americans use over-the-counter nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to treat pain. Every year in the US, NSAID use is attributed to approximately 100,000 hospitalizations and 17,000 deaths. All of these drugs have benefits and risks, but deciding which one to use is complicated for health care providers and their patients. To assist in clinical decision-making, researchers address cardiovascular risks and beyond, which include gastrointestinal and kidney side effects of pain relievers.</description>

			<title>Inactive receptor renders cancer immunotherapies ineffective</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/10/191015131620.htm</link>
			<description>The aim of immunotherapies is to enable the immune system once again to fight cancer on its own. Drugs known as checkpoint inhibitors are already in clinical use for this purpose. However, they are only effective in about one third of patients. Based on analysis of human tissue samples, a team has now discovered one reason why this is so: an inactive receptor in cancer cells prevents the drugs from reactivating the immune system.</description>

			<title>Study of rare cancer yields therapeutic clues to combat drug resistance</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/08/180829115508.htm</link>
			<description>The team set out to explore cancer drivers that allow NUT midline carcinoma -- a rare, aggressive cancer that can arise in multiple organs -- to become impervious to drugs. Their results may apply to several forms of cancer fueled by the same mutated driver gene, and their approach may be applicable to other types of cancer whose genomes have been sequenced.</description>

			<description>An estimated 45 percent of people are at risk of developing knee osteoarthritis (OA) in their lifetime. According to a network meta-analysis research article the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) naproxen was ranked most effective in individual knee OA treatment for improving both pain and function, and is considered a relatively safe and low-cost treatment method.</description>

			<description>Ibuprofen, aspirin, and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications are among the most commonly utilized medications in the United States. Primarily for treating pain, inflammation, and preventing cardiovascular disease, NSAIDs&#039; promising anti-cancer properties have been highlighted by a growing body of data in recent years. However, a new study indicated that non-aspirin NSAID use was associated with shorter overall survival in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC).</description>

			<title>Cancer researchers hit a bullseye with new drug target for Ewing sarcoma</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/01/180125230343.htm</link>
			<description>Researchers have found that Ewing sarcoma cells die if an enzyme called CDK12 is knocked out genetically or chemically inhibited. What&#039;s more, when a CDK12 inhibitor is combined with another drug, called a PARP inhibitor, the two drugs double down to deliver a lethal punch to Ewing sarcoma cells.</description>
