Researchers have developed an AI powered model that — in 10 seconds — can determine during surgery if any part of a cancerous brain tumor that could be removed remains, a study published in Nature suggests.

After a man suffered a stroke at a University of Michigan football game, his wife’s recognition of his symptoms helped him receive lifesaving treatment and make a full recovery.

Obstructive sleep apnea, a common and underdiagnosed sleep disorder, contributes to dementia in older adults — particularly women, a study suggests.

In a study of commonly used treatments for multiple sclerosis, both medical and behavioral interventions, and a combination of the two, resulted in significant improvements in fatigue.

Despite having no greater chance of developing problems after high risk cardiovascular surgery, women are more likely than men to die from post-operative complications, a University of Michigan-led study suggests.

Bystander CPR saves a first year college student who collapsed from sudden cardiac arrest while running during his first week of school.

People having heart surgery to repair leaking mitral or tricuspid valves may receive a pacemaker more often than necessary — leading to a greater risk for life threatening complications.

Doctors and pharmacists treating people with blood thinners can now reduce the rate of inappropriate dosing — as well as blood clots and strokes that can result from it — using an electronic patient management system.

Research found that it took approximately 28 minutes longer for a Black patient to be brought in for emergency care after displaying symptoms of a stroke.

Having a mental health condition also increases the risk of developing chronic complications of diabetes, according to new research.

People with higher levels of metals found in their blood and urine may be more likely to be diagnosed with — and die from — amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS, a University of Michigan-led study suggests.

More than two-thirds of those people take a type of blood thinner called a direct oral anticoagulant. These DOACs, such as rivaroxaban (brand name Xarelto) and apixaban (brand name Eliquis), are under- or over-prescribed in up to one in eight patents. These prescribing issues can have life-threatening consequences, and they most often occur after a provider writes the initial prescription, according to a study led by Michigan Medicine.

A study found personalized text messages effectively promoted increased physical activity for patients after significant heart events — such as a heart attack or surgery — but those effects later diminished.

A study led by Michigan Medicine narrows in on the cumulative effects of years of high systolic blood pressure — the top number on the blood pressure reading and how hard the heart pumps blood to the arteries — finding that a higher average reading during adulthood is linked with a greater risk for the two most common types of stroke.

Women over the age of 65 who require complex heart surgery are more likely than men to receive care at low quality hospitals — where they also die in greater numbers following the procedure, a Michigan Medicine study finds.
