Genetically lower systolic BP linked to increased risk of allergic rhinitis

Genetically predicted lower systolic blood pressure (SBP) seems to increase susceptibility to allergic rhinitis (AR), according to a study published online May 29 in Tobacco Induced Diseases.

AI-guided pathology analysis can help predict immunotherapy response in rare cancers

Researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center demonstrated that an artificial intelligence (AI)-based analysis of tumor biopsies can predict responses to immunotherapy in a study of patients with rare cancers, published in the Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Can

Moms' responsiveness to their babies may predict later childhood psychiatric disorders

When mothers were slower to vocally respond to their 1-year-old children's vocalizations, the children were more likely to have been diagnosed with a psychiatric disorder by age 7, according to a study published in PLOS One by Bethany Stanley of the University of Glasgow in the U

Novel biomarker beats leading diagnostic blood test at predicting Alzheimer's progression

Small loops of genetic material may be strong indicators of imminent Alzheimer's disease (AD) symptoms. In a new study published in Nature Medicine, researchers showed that elevated levels of certain circular RNAs (circRNAs) in the blood nearly tripled patients' risk of developin

Invisible threads: How our environment quietly shapes disease

From the air we breathe to the food we eat, we are constantly exposed to thousands of chemicals—yet how these exposures affect our health has remained surprisingly difficult to understand. A new study led by researchers at the CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Au

AI tool improves prediction of who will respond to cancer immunotherapy drugs

Cancer immunotherapy drugs known as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) can be miracle drugs for cancer patients, curing some and turning deadly disease into a manageable chronic condition in others. But these drugs work for only a subset of patients, with few indications why—a k

Immature immune cells predict chances of survival following a heart attack

In the event of a severe heart attack, immature immune cells are released into the bloodstream from the bone marrow. A research team led by the University of Münster has demonstrated that the maturity level of neutrophils can be used to determine the short-term risk of death, and

Genetic information helps predict the onset and progression of glaucoma

Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible visual impairment worldwide. Because the disease often progresses without symptoms for years, many patients are diagnosed only after permanent damage to the optic nerve has already occurred. Earlier detection through targeted screenin

AI test predicts breast cancer recurrence in hours, not weeks, across 3,500 patients

In recent years, notable advances have been made in diagnosing and treating breast cancer. However, its recurrence continues to plague thousands, deepening the need to find ways to better predict the likelihood of its return.

Gut microbiota can predict risk of type 2 diabetes years before it develops

The presence of certain bacteria in the gut microbiota, and fluctuations in a person's metabolism, can be seen in people who go on to develop type 2 diabetes years later. This has been shown in a large Swedish study led by researchers at Chalmers University of Technology. The stu

First AI agent and risk prediction model for precision diabetes management

A research team at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) has developed Hong Kong's first "AI Agent for Precision Diabetes Management—PIPE-AI" (AI Agent), designed specifically for Asian populations, together with a related disease risk prediction model. Leveraging artifici

Researchers chart a genetic path to diagnosing pulmonary fibrosis and predicting outcomes

Researchers have validated a genetic scoring tool that may help physicians diagnose idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and identify which patients are at greatest risk for severe outcomes, including death or the need for a lung transplant. The findings come from a new international st
