New AI tool predicts hip fracture risk years ahead4:37 Preventing hip fractures depends on identifying people at high risk early. Researchers at the University of Gothenburg have now developed a new clinical decision support tool that makes this possible-without requiring clinic visits or patient questionnaires. Study links later-life food insecurity to elevated dementia risk4:37 Older adults who experienced food insecurity in both midlife and later life had nearly four times the risk of probable dementia as those who remained food secure, according to new University of Michigan research. HRT linked to lower dementia risk, but timing and menopause type matter4:05 In a UK Biobank study of 183,450 postmenopausal women followed for an average of 13.3 years, hormone replacement therapy use was associated with a modestly lower risk of dementia, with stronger associations in women who had surgical menopause or shorter natural estrogen exposure. The relationship also varied by age at HRT initiation, while the observational design means the findings cannot establ… Researchers tested dozens of clues for long COVID. One finding stood out3:34 A nationwide study of 218 people in the Faroe Islands examined clinical, neurological, and blood-based markers associated with persistent symptoms around six months after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Despite extensive testing, researchers found no convincing biomarker for long COVID, while a statistical association with lower INR remained within the normal clinical range and requires replication. Sunlight, blood sugar and diabetes: a new study finds an intriguing connection3:02 Higher short-term ambient UVA exposure was associated with modestly lower blood glucose levels, particularly during winter, in a large UK Biobank analysis. Separately, more frequent solarium use, used as a proxy for habitual sunlight exposure, was associated with a lower hazard of type 2 diabetes, although the observational findings do not establish causality. Pomegranate phytobiotics offer natural alternative to synthetic veterinary drugs21:11 Researchers have identified a broad range of biological properties in pomegranate with potential for use in medical applications, including antimicrobial, antiparasitic, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, liver-supporting, and wound-healing effects. Unexpected discovery points to a possible route for childhood brain tumor treatments21:11 When researchers at Lund University investigated how the molecule UM171 works, a molecule used to make blood stem cells multiply, they made an unexpected connection. Personalized nutrition promotes weight loss without counting calories20:39 The great majority of people taking part in a study lost weight by following personalised nutritional insights, rather than going on a calorie counting or restrictive diet, reveal findings from a new study. Mayo Clinic joins multi-million dollar gene-editing project for children20:39 Mayo Clinic is a clinical collaborator on an award of up to $27.7 million from the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) to help develop affordable, scalable gene-editing therapies for children with rare inherited immune disorders. Ketogenic diet excels at reversing prediabetes and fatty liver20:39 There is no shortage of popular diets to try, and they can generally produce weight loss if followed to the letter. But are all diet plans created equal in terms of reducing the cardiometabolic risks that come with obesity, such as Type 2 diabetes and liver disease? |
