Do calorie-free sweeteners cause appetite disruption?
A new study from the Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California reveals that calorie-free sweeteners, like sucralose, can disrupt brain signals related to appetite and potentially increase cravings, particularly in people with obesity. Published in Nature Metabolism, the study shows sucralose activates the hypothalamus, a region of the brain that helps regulate hunger and body weight. While it mimics the sweetness of sugar, sucralose does not provide the expected caloric energy. This mismatch may lead to an increase in appetite and overeating, especially over time. “But are these substances actually helpful for regulating body weight? What

What are 'poppers' and why is the FDA cracking down on them?
Alkyl nitrites – commonly known as “poppers” – have a complex regulatory history dating back to the 19th century, when amyl nitrites were used as medical treatments for chest pain and asthma.

As amyl nitrite gave way to other alkyl nitrite formulations, the products maintained popularity in clubs during the 1970s. By the 1980s, use became largely concentrated among gay men, partly due to the stigma associated

Drug-resistant fungus spreads rapidly in hospitals across the U.S.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has identified Candida auris – a deadly and drug-resistant fungus – as an “urgent threat” due to its rapid spread in healthcare facilities across the United States. Cases have surged since its first U.S. appearance in 2016, with over 4,000 new clinical cases reported by March 2023. California recorded 1,566 infections during this same period, more than any other state. Candida auris is a type of yeast that can cause severe infections, particularly in individuals with weakened immune systems. The fungus is notably resistant to multiple antifungal medications, complicating treatment efforts. “The

How often do disadvantaged patients use emergency services?
A new University of California, Los Angeles-led study reveals socioeconomically disadvantaged individuals continue to underuse the Emergency Department (ED) services for potentially serious illnesses, despite an overall rebound in ED visits following the COVID-19 pandemic. Published in Health Affairs, the study found that while ED use rebounded for those with commercial insurance or Medicare, it remained lower for patients covered by Medicaid or dual Medicare/Medicaid, often those from disadvantaged backgrounds. The research highlights a concerning trend where Medicaid and dual-eligible patients are avoiding emergency care, even when they need it most. “Our findings highlight a mixed reality: while fewer potentially
