How COVID mRNA vaccines may make cancer treatments more effective

Researchers found that COVID-19 mRNA vaccines, when given within 100 days of starting immune checkpoint inhibitors, were linked to significantly longer survival in lung and melanoma cancer patients. The vaccines trigger a powerful type-I interferon response that primes tumors to become more responsive to immunotherapy.

Global study maps how trade and travel fuel the worldwide spread of disease-carrying mosquitoes

Researchers compiled the first global database tracing how, when, and where non-native mosquito species that transmit human diseases have spread and established. The study reveals accelerating introductions since 1950, driven by trade, transport, and socio-environmental factors, highlighting actionable hotspots for global surveillance.

Football injuries, not injections, explain why retired players face higher osteoarthritis risk

Retired UK male footballers face a markedly higher risk of foot and ankle osteoarthritis (OA), primarily due to prior injuries sustained during their careers. While corticosteroid injections were linked with OA, this association likely reflects treatment for injury rather than a direct cause.
