Health workers are gearing up for the World Cup, ready to catch any disease outbreaks early. They will monitor everything from hospital visits to what people say on social media. A big heat wave could hurt fans, but crowds also create perfect spots for viruses to spread. Measles is a top wo
Healthy ageing programs don’t always help everyone equally. Many people get left behind because of where they live, how much money they make, or even their education level. This isn’t just about unfairness—it actually changes how well these programs work. A closer look at different communities shows
Researchers looked at why people in India and the UK feel satisfied or frustrated with digital health services. They found that three things matter most: whether the service works without glitches, if users see real benefits in their daily lives, and if they trust the organization behind it. But he
Researchers wanted to see if where women with endometriosis live changes how the disease shows up in their bodies.

Research shows that people with diabetes face a higher chance of developing certain cancers. The strongest links are found with breast, colon, uterus, liver, pancreas, and gallbladder cancers. But figuring out if diabetes actually causes cancer or if other factors play a bigger role isn’t simple. Li
Research shows that when young people see smoking in movies or shows, it can make smoking seem more appealing. But what happens when a well-known actor lights up on screen? Does it matter more than the way they act while they smoke? Scientists wanted to find out if celebrity status and emotional rea
Research shows happiness isn’t one big moment but many small daily choices. Two habits keep showing up across cultures: kindness and movement. Kindness works like a happiness multiplier. A study had people from almost 30 countries try one week of small kind acts—helping friends, strangers, even the
