JACKSONVILLE, FLa. – Researchers say 70 million people have sleep disorders like insomnia, sleep apnea or narcolepsy and more than 100 million Americans just aren’t getting enough sleep.
Adults should get anywhere from seven to nine hours of sleep a night according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Are you shaking your head asking, “When was the last time I got that much sleep?” You are not alone.

Researchers identify new immunotherapy treatment target for acute myeloid leukemia in children
Researchers have identified a gene expressed in children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that could serve as a new immunotherapy treatment target, according to a new study published today in
Blood Advances, a journal of the American Society of Hematology. The study, co-authored by researchers with Nemours Children s Health System, outlines the process and potential path for new immunotherapy drugs that improve survival and reduce treatment-related toxicity in children with AML.
Leukemia is the most common cancer in children and teens, and AML accounts for nearly one-fourth of those cases. AML is a fast-growing cancer that typically starts in immature bone marrow cells.
