Another year later, the proportion remained below half. For this young patient group, returning to work is a key health factor. Every year, some 100 people in Sweden are diagnosed with low-grade brain tumor […] Using a novel technique which enables high resolution imaging of damaged lung tissues, scientists have found the changes caused by severe Covid-19 in the structure of the organ’s blood vessels and air sacs, findings that may support the development of new treatment methods against the disease. In the study, published in the journal eLife, the scientists developed a new X-ray […] (HealthDay)—Young people seldom say a food or drink is “too sweet.” A new study suggests that may be because they’re less sensitive to sugar than adults and prefer more of it.
