Blood metabolites reveal lifestyle links to brain health before dementia

Blood metabolome profiling in dementia-free middle-aged adults linked 14 metabolites to cognition and 22 metabolites to MRI markers of brain health. Lifestyle, clinical factors, medication use and gut microbiota appeared to shape many of these metabolites, with ergothioneine emerging as a notable cognition-linked signal.

New eye imaging technology captures clearer details of retina

Modern OCT devices can look inside the eye without a scalpel - but they do not always capture everything that matters. Some critical information is simply lost, blurred by scattered photons.

Micro and nanorobots could transform blood clot treatment

Newer tethered devices address some of these limitations: the "milli‑spinner" thrombectomy device applies compressive and shear loading to compact a clot to about 10% of its original volume, enabling ultrafast removal even in pulmonary and cerebral arteries (in vitro and porcine studies).

Study finds no detectable short-term brain harm after one youth soccer season

A prospective European cohort study found that one season of competitive youth soccer was not associated with detectable short-term differences in cognition, behavior, balance, MRI measures, or blood biomarkers compared with noncontact sports. However, soccer players had higher preseason tNAA, GFAP, and NfL levels than controls, highlighting the need for larger, multiyear studies to clarify whether repeated heading has cumulative effects.
