Short summary

A Washington State University-led study suggests community-based dog vaccination against rabies could protect children in Africa. NYU Abu Dhabi researchers found a single cancer-causing gene can trigger different cellular responses. A SEER-Medicare analysis of over 265,000 adults found major depressive disorder linked to higher cancer mortality, while psychotherapy within four weeks of diagnosis was associated with 21% lower risk. Other studies report mental health problems more likely to persist, a patented polymer for oral drugs, breathing out linked to faster responses, three drugs eliminat
