Wearable sweat sensor tracks vitamin levels in real time

Researchers developed a wearable electrochemical patch that detects six vitamins in sweat at nanomolar levels, combining sweat induction, microfluidic sampling, wireless readout, and pH/ionic-strength calibration. Human testing focused mainly on vitamin B9, showing sweat levels rose after supplementation or a vitamin B9-rich diet and correlated with serum levels, supporting future use for non-invasive nutrition trend monitoring.

Why H2N2 flu is back on the pandemic preparedness radar

A historical review in Vaccine warns that global H2N2 immunity has sharply declined since the 1957 Asian influenza pandemic, leaving most people without H2-specific protection if the virus re-emerges. The authors highlight animal reservoirs, waning birth-cohort immunity, and modern H2 vaccine platforms as key priorities for pandemic preparedness.

CAR-PRISM trial reports promising results in high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma

Results of the single-center, phase 2 CAR-PRISM (PRecision Intervention Smoldering Myeloma) clinical trial, the first to investigate Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy in patients with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma, showed that all 20 patients were negative for minimal residual disease (MRD) within two months of treatment and remained MRD-negative after a median of 15.3 months of follow-up, and none experienced high-grade side effects, according to results presented at the AACR Annual Meeting 2026, held April 17-22, in San Diego, Calif.

Why clinical proteomics faces a mass spectrometry vs. high-throughput profiling dilemma

This Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine review examines a central challenge in precision medicine: whether medical laboratories should prioritize metrologically sound, proteoform-resolving protein quantification by mass spectrometry or adopt scalable, affinity-based proteome profiling platforms built for high-throughput discovery and machine learning. It concludes that while emerging proteomics technologies expand diagnostic possibilities, careful validation, standardization, and quality assurance will be essential, with a hybrid path likely offering the most practical way forward.
