Blocking a female-only GABA signal that helps glioblastoma evade immunity may boost surviv

Researchers have identified a critical biological difference in how glioblastoma develops in male and female laboratory models, pinpointing an immune pathway that fuels tumor growth only in females. The study shows that the neurotransmitter GABA boosts the cancer-protecting activ

AI and polygenic scores improve breast cancer risk assessment

A risk model that combines a mammographic artificial intelligence (AI) risk score with polygenic and clinical risk scores more accurately identifies women at high risk of developing breast cancer than clinical risk scores used alone, finds a new Kaiser Permanente study. The study

Seeing through optical noise: New method offers sharper way to image the eye

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become one of the foundations of modern ophthalmology. A patient sits in front of the device and focuses on a target, and moments later the physician can see a detailed cross-section of the retina, layer by layer, without any physical contac

Language models read doctors' notes to reveal why patients discontinue medication

Researchers at the University of Tartu showed that large language models can identify with high accuracy why patients stop using antidiabetic medications or statins based on doctors' electronic clinical notes. The study opens new possibilities for using clinical information that

New Tfr cell model uncovers molecular switches that restrain antibody responses

For the immune system to effectively combat pathogens, antibody responses must be precisely controlled. So-called follicular regulatory T cells (Tfr cells) play a key role in this process by limiting excessive immune responses and helping to maintain immune tolerance. Researchers

New tool helps uncover rare genetic mutations in common diseases, including Parkinson's

Studies of genetics conducted in yeast cells, human neurons, mice or other model systems often reveal networks of genes that could contribute to complex diseases, such as breast cancer, type 2 diabetes and Parkinson's disease. But those findings don't always translate to human bi

Some patient groups are far more vulnerable to near-perfect privacy attacks from medical A

From detecting pneumonia on a chest X-ray to assessing whether a dark spot on the skin is benign or malignant, medical AI systems are playing an increasingly important role in clinical diagnosis. Unfortunately, the models used to train these AI systems are often victims of cybera

Hospital AI tool predicts low blood sugar in patients up to 24 hours in advance

Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University investigators developed an AI-based model that can identify hospitalized patients at risk of low blood sugar up to 24 hours before the condition occurs. The long short-term memory (LSTM) model, described in npj Digital Medicine, could help
