 Could a fingerprick at home flag your Alzheimer's risk? New study says yesCould a fingerprick at home flag your Alzheimer's risk? New study says yes
 
Researchers demonstrated that self-administered fingerprick blood tests measuring p-tau217 and GFAP, returned by post, correlate strongly with venous blood biomarkers and cognitive performance across the Alzheimer's disease continuum. Combined with computerized cognitive testing, this at-home approach offers a scalable, patient-friendly tool for triaging individuals at risk of AD-related impairment.

Findings suggest that egg consumption is associated with lower Alzheimer's disease risk, supporting the need for further research on diet and brain health.
 
   A new combined therapy to boost the immune system against cancerA new combined therapy to boost the immune system against cancer
 
Cancer immunotherapy is built on a simple but powerful idea: the immune system can recognize and destroy cancer cells if it is properly activated. In many patients, however, this response is too weak or too slow to be effective.

A landmark study recently published in the Nature Portfolio journal Scientific Reports reveals that cognitive decline is not an inevitable part of aging.
 
 Insulin-dependent diabetes linked to sharply higher dementia risk
 
Insulin-dependent diabetes linked to sharply higher dementia riskIndividuals with diabetes are at an increased risk of developing dementia but those with insulin-requiring type 2 diabetes and type 1 diabetes have the greatest risk, according to research presented at the 28th European Congress of Endocrinology in Prague.
 
 
 Cardiometabolic diseases remain leading cause of excess American mortality
 
Cardiometabolic diseases remain leading cause of excess American mortalityBetween 1999 and 2022, the US had substantially higher death rates than other wealthy nations, largely due to cardiovascular disease, metabolic diseases (including diabetes), Alzheimer's disease and related dementias, and drug and alcohol complications.

 Do repeated football head hits disrupt the gut microbiome?
 
Do repeated football head hits disrupt the gut microbiome?A small exploratory study of collegiate football players found that non-concussive head impacts are correlationally linked to acute and season-long shifts in gut microbiome composition, with changes most pronounced 48–72 hours after significant impacts. However, most associations weakened after correction for multiple testing, and the authors stress the findings are preliminary and hypothesis-generating.

 Intensive caregiving may accelerate cognitive decline
 
Intensive caregiving may accelerate cognitive declineOnerous caring responsibilities reduce brain function for people aged 50 and over, whereas light caring duties can actually be beneficial to middle-aged and older people's mental abilities, a new UCL study finds.
