	World’s first experimental lung cancer vaccine to enter clinical trials People at high risk of lung cancer will soon be able to receive the first ever experimental vaccine designed to prevent the disease, in a world-first clinical trial led by researchers at UCL and the University of Oxford.

	Machine learning tool helps evaluate ICU resource efficiency in severe pneumonia care A study published in the Journal of Critical Care, conducted with the participation of the D'Or Institute for Research and Education (IDOR), investigated how to measure efficiency in the use of resources for patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), an illness contracted outside hospital settings and most common among older adults.

			Study links higher glycemic index diets with increased lung cancer risk In this study, researchers examined whether people who follow higher-GI or higher-GL diets have different risks of developing lung cancer.

			Study offers new insights on patient care and lung cancer surveillance rates Despite recommendations for posttreatment surveillance in lung cancer patients, there is wide variability in the follow-up care that lung cancer patients receive. A recent study, led by senior author Leah Backhus, MD, MPH, Professor of Cardiothoracic Surgery (Thoracic Surgery) in the Stanford Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, offers new insights on patient care and lung cancer surveillance rates.

			New study links untreated sleep apnea to higher Parkinson’s disease risk New research reveals that people with untreated obstructive sleep apnea have a higher risk of developing Parkinson's disease. However, they can significantly reduce the risk by improving the quality of their sleep by using continuous positive airway pressure, or CPAP.

	Kennedy sharpens vaccine attacks, without scientific backing As the federal government prepares for the next meeting of its Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has intensified his attacks on aluminum vaccine components used in many shots to boost the body's immune response.

	New report outlines recommendations to improve chronic disease care for Latinos Latinos face significant health disparities, especially in chronic conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, asthma, and cancer.

	New clinical trial shows promise for shorter TB treatment New clinical trial results presented by TB Alliance at the Union World Conference on Lung Health show that the novel antibiotic candidate sorfequiline (TBAJ-876), a next-generation diarylquinoline, has the potential to improve tuberculosis (TB) treatment when combined with pretomanid and linezolid in a treatment regimen known as "SPaL."

	Pairing antiviral therapy with immune modulation restores lung repair in lethal Influenza Recovery from deadly influenza infection may hinge on helping the lungs heal in addition to stopping the virus, according to a new study in mice, which shows that pairing modest antiviral therapies with immune modulation can restore damaged tissues and lung function, even after severe infection has taken hold.

	Identifying vulnerabilities and new targets for hard-to-treat carcinomas Some tumors are almost impossible to treat. That's especially true for carcinomas, which don't behave like other malignancies.
