New Blood Tests Fall Short of Replacing Food Challenge (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Blood tests for food allergy have become more specific over time, but none can yet replace the oral food challenge, which remains the gold standard for both diagnosis and threshold analysis, according to leading experts. Although component testing, which increases blood test specificity compared with older tests, is now a staple of routine practice, other attempts to deliver a better blood test have so far fallen short. Most prominently, the basophil activation test (BAT), which entered the 2023
Standing Up More May Not Cut Risk for Cancer Death (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Taking breaks from long stretches of sitting is not, on its own, associated with a lower risk of dying from cancer, but replacing that sitting time with physical activity is, an accelerometer study of more than 91,000 adults showed. Over more than a decade of follow-up, cancer death occurred in 2.8% of participants in the highest quartile of daily sedentary time compared with 1.3% in the lowest quartile, reported senior author Frederick K. Ho, PhD, of the University of Glasgow, Glasgow, Scotland
Breast Cancer Survivors: Who Benefits From Weight-Loss Meds? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Adding a non-GLP-1 weight-loss drug could help breast cancer survivors achieve target weight loss when lifestyle intervention falls short, a phase 2 trial suggested. Among women who were unable to lose 5% of their body weight after 2 months of a behavioral program, adding naltrexone-bupropion to their treatment regimen helped 42% successfully achieve that 5% threshold. “Our findings highlight the importance of patient selection for weight-loss medications and the additive effects when combined w
Fecal Transplant Raises Peanut Tolerance (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Oral fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) can increase the allergic threshold in some adults with peanut allergy, based on results of a phase 1 trial. Six of 15 highly peanut-allergic adults responded to the transplant, with their reaction threshold rising from approximately half a peanut to one to two peanuts, reported lead author Rima Rachid, MD, associate professor of pediatrics at Harvard Medical School and co-director of the Food Allergy Program at Boston Children’s Hospital in Boston. These d
Which Cancers Are Still More Deadly in Black Patients? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The cancer mortality gap between Black and White individuals in the US has narrowed, but disparities in breast, uterine corpus, and prostate cancer specifically have remained wide or gotten worse, according to a new analysis. The excess cancer mortality rate among Black patients fell by 98.4 deaths per 100,000 in men and 21.7 deaths per 100,000 in women, when comparing the 1991-1995 period with the 2019-2023 period. A closer look at the data, however, reveals stubborn or even widening disparitie
