Tufts researchers identify new vulnerabilities to combat persistent C. diff infections

Affecting roughly half a million Americans each year, bacterial infections caused by Clostridioides difficile—commonly known as C. diff—are a serious and persistent problem for patients and hospitals alike.

Distinct spatial tumor–immune ecosystems predict lung cancer treatment response

Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have identified distinct spatial tumor–immune ecosystems that predict whether patients with advanced non–small cell lung cancer will benefit from immunotherapy.

New AstroID database integrates clinical and genetic data for large-scale cancer studies

Researchers from the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center and The Johns Hopkins University have created a novel database structure that allows investigators anywhere to more easily study multiple types of cancer data - including laboratory results, genetic sequencing and imaging data - in one setting.

Detecting major neurological disorders via saliva

A team of Korean researchers has, for the first time in the world, developed a technology capable of enabling early diagnosis of major neurological disorders, including epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, and schizophrenia, using only a small amount of saliva.

Brain imaging study reveals distinct subtypes of ADHD in children

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is often talked about as if it were a single condition. But anyone who works with children with ADHD-or raises one-knows that symptoms can look very different from one child to another.

New fragmentome technology can detect early liver fibrosis and cirrhosis

Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center report that an artificial intelligence (AI)-based liquid biopsy test using genome-wide cell-free DNA (cfDNA) fragmentation patterns and repeat landscapes can detect early liver fibrosis and cirrhosis, and may also reveal signals of broader chronic disease burden.

Protein linked to Parkinson's may drive faster Alzheimer's disease progression in women

Alzheimer's-related brain changes progressed up to 20 times faster in women who also had abnormal levels of a Parkinson's-related protein, according to a Mayo Clinic study published in JAMA Network Open.

Researchers develop versatile machine learning tool to automate complex clinical diagnostics

A research team funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has developed a versatile machine learning model that could one day greatly expand what medical scans can tell us about disease.

3D-printed model offers chance for surgeons to rehearse heart surgeries

Washington State University researchers have developed a 3D-printed model of the left side of the heart that contracts and beats, offering the chance for surgeons and medical students to rehearse important heart surgeries on a model that acts like the real thing.

Periodontal bacteria trigger bone density reduction via the gut

Periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory disease of the gums, affects hundreds of millions of people worldwide and is increasingly linked to systemic disorders beyond the oral cavity.

Stem cells from human primary tooth pulp may help treat chronic-phase cerebral palsy

Cerebral palsy is a condition usually caused by brain damage before or during birth, resulting in impaired posture and movement.

Minimally invasive ablation effective for early-stage kidney cancers

A large national study in Denmark following nearly 1,900 patients over almost a decade found that a minimally invasive procedure called ablation is as effective as surgery for treating small kidney cancers, with faster recovery and fewer complications. Results of the study were published today in Radiology, a journal of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA).

Study finds widespread microplastics in children and suggests diet may shape exposure

Researchers detected 19 types of microplastics in the urine of 10-year-old children, with particles present in over 91% of samples and a median concentration of 250 particles per milliliter. Greater adherence to the Mediterranean diet was associated with shifts in specific microplastic polymers, suggesting dietary patterns may influence exposure pathways.

New blood biomarker may detect Alzheimer’s pathology more accurately

Researchers compared total plasma pTau217 with a brain-derived pTau217 assay to determine which better identifies Alzheimer’s disease–related amyloid and tau pathology. Brain-derived pTau217 showed strong diagnostic performance and appeared less affected by kidney dysfunction, supporting its potential as a more specific blood biomarker for Alzheimer’s disease.

Nature reduces stress by shifting brain activity

This review examines how nature exposure impacts brain function, stress reduction, and emotional well-being, highlighting gaps and future research directions.

Eye movement testing reveals long-term effects of mild traumatic brain injury

A study from researchers at the CU Anschutz Marcus Institute for Brain Health suggests that veterans with concussions may continue to show subtle but measurable brain function differences more than a decade after their injury.

Poverty linked to early motor delays in babies as young as six months

Poverty can affect babies' motor development as early as six months of age. This is the conclusion of the first Brazilian study to examine the quantity and quality of motor development month by month and its relationship with socioeconomic vulnerability during the first months of life.

FDA clears cloud-based AI system to forecast predicted delivery date

Ultrasound AI, a pioneer in artificial intelligence applications for medical imaging, today announced it has received FDA De Novo clearance for its flagship Delivery Date AI technology, a cloud-based SaMD that determines a Predicted Delivery Date (PDD) solely from standard ultrasound images and seamless integration into current OB/MFM prenatal visit workflows; PDD is provided in real-time for actionable decision-making by the clinical team.

Chronic back pain linked to heightened sound sensitivity in the brain

People with chronic back pain process everyday sounds differently, and more intensely, than people without pain, according to new research from the University of Colorado Anschutz.
