Special MRI technique predicts onset of mild cognitive impairment and cognitive decline

A special MRI technique that detects iron levels in different regions of the brain can predict the onset of mild cognitive impairment and cognitive decline in cognitively unimpaired older adults, potentially creating a pathway to earlier interventions, according to a study published today in Radiology, a journal of the Radiological Society of North America.

Single-dose vaccine developed to prevent chlamydia in koalas

In a world first, a vaccine has been approved to protect Australia's endangered koalas from infection and death caused by chlamydia.

Experts review the evidence on coenzyme Q10 and cognitive decline

Researchers reviewed evidence on coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and cognition, finding strong biological support and positive results in animal models but mixed outcomes in human trials. Larger, high-quality studies are needed to clarify whether CoQ10 can protect against cognitive decline and neurodegenerative diseases.

Researchers reveal why no level of air pollution is safe for respiratory health

A review in the Journal of Clinical Investigation shows how particulate matter damages the lungs through oxidative stress, inflammation, and immune disruption. It links air pollution to asthma, COPD, lung cancer, infections, and millions of premature deaths, with no safe exposure threshold.

Planetary health diet links to longer life and lower emissions

Greater adherence to the Planetary Health Diet was linked to lower all-cause, cancer, and respiratory mortality across large US and UK cohorts, supported by a meta-analysis of 37 studies. Diets higher in PHD foods also had smaller greenhouse gas footprints, reinforcing health and environmental benefits.

High consumption of ultra-processed foods increases a sensitive marker of inflammation

Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrially altered products – like soda, snacks and processed meats – packed with additives and stripped of nutrients.

IFITM3 found to be critical regulator of immunotherapy sensitivity in small cell lung cancer

New research presented identifies interferon-induced transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) as a critical regulator of immunotherapy sensitivity in small cell lung cancer (SCLC), offering a promising new avenue for overcoming resistance to PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint blockade.

Fatty acids circulating in the blood predict bone mineral density from childhood to adolescence

A recent study by the University of Eastern Finland is the first to report that the fatty acid composition of blood and the enzyme activity associated with it predict the development of bone mineral density from childhood to adolescence.

Amino acid homocysteine plays a key role in aortic stiffening

In addition to cholesterol, the amino acid homocysteine also plays a role in aortic stiffening. Researchers from Graz University of Technology, the University of Graz and the Medical University of Graz were able to prove this in a new study.

Study uncovers three-way relationships between gut fungi, genetics and disease risk

A new genome-wide study uncovers evidence of the first three-way relationships between human genetic variation, variation in the fungal component of the human microbiome - known as the mycobiome - and risk of developing chronic disease.

Exploring whether chemotherapy disrupts biological clock in the brain to impair circadian rhythms

During and after chemotherapy, nearly half of cancer patients endure circadian rhythm disruptions, which worsens treatment side effects.
