AI scans arteries and predicts risk after heart attack better than traditional review

Researchers found that AI applied to OCT imaging can standardize detection of thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) and identify post–heart attack patients at higher two-year risk. Whole-segment AI analysis outperformed lesion-focused human review, offering stronger prognostic value and reassurance for low-risk patients.

Advances in ultrasound improve prenatal detection of congenital heart disease

A new study published in The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, the journal from The Society of Thoracic Surgeons, suggests that prenatal detection of congenital heart disease (CHD) has improved in recent years largely due to advances in ultrasound screening practices.

Study reveals how dormant E. coli bacteria survive antibiotics

A groundbreaking study by researchers from Wuhan University, York University (UK), and Peking University has uncovered how Escherichia coli (E. coli) persister bacteria survive antibiotics by protecting their genetic instructions.

Dormant tumor cells targeted to reduce breast cancer relapse

A first-of-its-kind, federally funded clinical trial has shown it's possible to identify breast cancer survivors who are at higher risk of their cancer coming back due to the presence of dormant cancer cells and to effectively treat these cells with repurposed, existing drugs.

Brain pulsations driving glymphatic function differ in narcolepsy patients and healthy individuals

A hormone produced by the brain, orexin, may play a central role in the functioning of the brain’s glymphatic system, which clears waste, according to a new study from the University of Oulu.

Study provides evidence for a causal genetic link between prostate cancer and urothelial carcinoma

Prostate cancer is among the most common cancers in men and a leading cause of cancer-related deaths. With improved detection and therapies, survival rates have risen, but this progress comes with a new concern: the risk of secondary primary malignancies.

KRISS develops ultra-sensitive platform to detect Alzheimer’s biomarkers in body fluids

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS, President Lee Ho Seong) has developed a diagnostic platform that amplifies the unique optical signals of molecules by more than a hundred million times, enabling the precise detection and quantification of trace amounts of Alzheimer's disease biomarkers in body fluids.

$New hypothesis links internal fat biology to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction$

New hypothesis links internal fat biology to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) appears to develop as a result of changes in the biology of a person's internal fat tissue, according to the Adipokine Hypothesis, a new way of understanding how fat may impact the heart.

Research finds no added benefit from routine CT imaging after left main coronary intervention

Routine coronary computed tomography (CCT)-based follow-up after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of the left main coronary artery did not reduce death, myocardial infarction (MI), unstable angina or stent thrombosis compared with symptom-based follow-up, according to late-breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2025.

Updated guidelines aim to standardize valvular heart disease care across Europe

Updated ESC/EACTS Guidelines, being published today at ESC Congress 2025, aim to improve the way that patients with valvular heart disease are diagnosed and treated, responding to robust new evidence that suggests some newer and less invasive treatments could be offered more widely and consistently to patients.

Visualizing lipid transport inside living cells with fluorescence microscopy

Lipid molecules, or fats, are crucial to all forms of life. Cells need lipids to build membranes, separate and organize biochemical reactions, store energy, and transmit information.

New study reveals how child neglect impacts critical brain pathways

When we think of child abuse, physical violence or emotional cruelty often comes to mind first. However, the most common form of maltreatment is actually much quieter: neglect.

Daily use of low-dose colchicine may slow growth of blood mutations linked to disease

Taking low-dose colchicine daily may slow the progression of a common acquired gene mutation found in the blood of older adults that can lead to certain blood cancers and increased risk of cardiovascular disease, according to a subanalysis of the LoDoCo2 trial published in JACC, the flagship journal of the American College of Cardiology, and simultaneously presented at ESC Congress 2025.

Signaling mechanisms driving olfactory neurogenesis in zebrafish

Cellular differentiation of stem cells into specialized cells requires many steps, including division, to create more cells; fate determination, which is a commitment to a specific lineage or developmental path; and migration, to integrate the cell into its final location.
