Three advances in TB diagnostics: a portable $300 device delivering results in 30 minutes, a Quick DNA kit detecting drug resistance in 5 minutes, and an ultrasensitive test finding TB DNA in 12-16% of hospitalized US patients.
Generative AI processed complex medical datasets faster than traditional teams in a preterm birth study, while the healthcare market for the technology reached US$2.92 billion in 2024. The market is projected to grow to US$30.68 billion by 2033 as adoption expands in clinical workflows, imaging, drug discovery and precision medicine.
New research reveals red blood cells absorb large amounts of glucose in low-oxygen conditions, explaining why high-altitude populations have lower diabetes rates. A drug mimicking this effect completely reversed high blood sugar in diabetic mice.
Researchers at UC San Francisco discovered that exercise triggers liver production of GPLD1, which removes TNAP protein buildup from blood-brain barrier cells, reducing age-related leakiness and cognitive decline.
Scientists at Gladstone Institutes have discovered why living at high altitude reduces diabetes risk: red blood cells absorb large amounts of glucose in low oxygen environments. A drug mimicking this effect reversed diabetes in mice.
Researchers demonstrate that a fully implanted brain device can detect walking states in Parkinson's patients during unsupervised daily activities, opening the door to adaptive deep brain stimulation therapies that adjust to real-world movement.
