A new study from the Harvey L. Neiman Health Policy Institute found that attrition (i.e., exit) from the radiology workforce increased for all subspecialties, but with varying magnitude. The study, published in the American Journal of Roentgenology, was based on all Medicare radiologists who submitted claims between 2014 and 2022 and covered 159,490 radiologist-year observations for 29,770 radiologists practicing as subspecialists.

In human sociability, cooperation occupies a central place. Compared to other species, humans cooperate with one another in a more flexible manner and across a wider range of contexts. This pro-social disposition leads us to contribute to others' goals and to shared goals, often setting aside immediate interests to benefit partners and broader social groups.

As part of the Socialization To Enrich Participation & Support Sexuality (STEPS2) Health Education study, two CUNY SPH researchers have published papers that spotlight trauma-informed sex education and data integrity in disability research. Together they argue that people with disabilities deserve safer, more responsive systems—both in the classroom and in public health research and practice.

People who get just a few minutes of vigorous activity daily are less likely to develop eight major diseases, including arthritis, heart disease and dementia, according to research published in the European Heart Journal. The researchers carried out a detailed study of around 96,000 people, comparing their overall activity levels with the amount of vigorous activity and their subsequent risk of eight major diseases.

For many older people, humor can be a lifeline. It's not easy to discuss the challenges of aging—from loneliness and the loss of a loved one to dealing with chronic pain. But laughter can be an invaluable way of opening up about how hard life sometimes feels.

Teens in the U.S. are obtaining medication abortion pills through telehealth, and young people aged 18 to 24 are ordering medication abortion at much higher rates than older adults.

Scientists have used a tiny plastic "obstacle course" to test how much sperm would struggle to navigate during sex in the weightlessness of space.

Results of a Phase I clinical trial show that patients who undergo a blood stem cell transplant involving a donor have a lower risk of relapse and lower rates of graft-versus-host disease when they receive the targeted therapy VIC-1911 along with the standard-of-care regimen that includes post-transplant cyclophosphamide and sirolimus.

The fight against widespread burnout in the health care workforce should begin with the training of future health care administrators, according to a new paper from the George Mason University College of Public Health. Published in the Journal of Health Administration Education, the paper examines how health administration programs can better prepare future leaders to address burnout by focusing on workplace factors such as working conditions, leadership support, job design and workload, social connections, and opportunities for advancement.

Most people who have heard of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (more commonly known as CRISPR) associate it with gene editing—the precise molecular scissors that allow scientists to cut and rewrite DNA. But the same underlying technology that makes CRISPR so powerful for editing genes also makes it a versatile diagnostic tool.
