SAN FRANCISCO, CA — Earlier this week, the Institute of Medicine (IOM), after conducting a comprehensive review of the scientific literature, stirred up some controversy by concluding that the data ...

High blood sugar levels can cause blood sodium levels to appear low. However, this is usually due to a dilutional effect. Doctors can use a sodium glucose correction formula to calculate accurate ...

Researchers developed an optoacoustic (OA) terahertz spectroscopy system that can be used for long-term, non-invasive monitoring of blood sodium levels. Their approach successfully reduces signal ...
