 | | |  How gut microbes shape sleep: New review reveals microbiome clues to insomnia and apnea A new Brain Medicine review maps how gut microbes influence sleep disorders, from insomnia and sleep apnea to circadian disruption, via bile acids, neurotransmitters, and immune pathways. The findings highlight gut-driven targets for improving sleep quality through diet, probiotics, and microbiome modulation. | | | | |  American Cancer Society releases first-ever U.S. Tobacco Atlas The American Cancer Society (ACS) today announced the inaugural release of The U.S. Tobacco Atlas, a fact-based, digital scientific resource offering comprehensive data and insights on tobacco use, control policies, and their impact nationwide.

| | | | |  By creating high-resolution cellular and molecular visual maps of lung cancer before and during development, researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have discovered that the earliest stages of lung cancer may be driven by inflammation, suggesting that targeting proinflammatory pathways could be an early intervention approach. | | | | |  Two new studies being presented at the 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting of the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) show that people with allergic conditions - including eczema, asthma, and hay fever - may face more problems after certain types of surgery. | | | | |  A new study finds that thunderstorms can trigger sharp increases in asthma-related emergency department (ED) visits, underscoring the importance of storm preparedness for people with asthma. The research is being presented at the 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting of the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) in Orlando. | | | | |  Streptococcus pyogenes or invasive Group A Streptococcus (iGAS) is a major clinical concern around the world, since iGAS infections can quickly escalate into life-threatening conditions such as necrotizing fasciitis, septic shock, and pneumonia. | | | | |  A research team from Trinity College Dublin has unveiled a groundbreaking new approach to vaccination that could redefine how we protect against respiratory infections. | | | | |  U.S. Veterans who served in Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) face an increased risk of developing several chronic respiratory conditions, according to new research presented at the 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting of the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) in Orlando. | | | | |  A large-scale screen of tuberculosis proteins has revealed several possible antigens that could be developed as a new vaccine for TB, the world's deadliest infectious disease. | | | | |  Many pregnant women experience allergies, asthma, or reactions to medications - conditions that can affect both mother and baby if not carefully managed. Yet new research presented at the 2025 American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) Annual Scientific Meeting suggests a reluctance among obstetricians to refer their pregnant patients to allergy specialists, even when a referral could help improve care. | | | | |  From rare tick-borne meat allergy to everyday asthma, millions of people turn to social media for health advice. | | | | |  The risk of dying is six times higher among patients who become short of breath after being admitted to hospital, according to research published today (Monday) in ERJ Open Research. Patients who were in pain were not more likely to die. | | | | |  Foreigners seeking visas to live in the U.S. might be rejected if they have certain medical conditions, including diabetes or obesity, under a Thursday directive from the Trump administration. | | | | |  NYU Langone Health researchers found that a type of cell death caused by a buildup of highly reactive molecules suppresses lung tumor growth. | | | | |  Two new studies being presented at the 2025 American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) Annual Scientific Meeting in Orlando shed light on how hereditary angioedema (HAE) – a rare, potentially life-threatening disease which causes unpredictable swelling – profoundly affects the daily lives, emotional wellbeing, and medical experiences of young patients and their caregivers. | | | | |  Research shows that concussions elevate the risk of motor vehicle crashes, particularly in the weeks following injury, necessitating enhanced safety measures. | |
