The application of an artificial intelligence (AI)-based screening tool for retinal disease in India and Thailand highlighted the myths and reality of introducing medical AI, which may form a framework for subsequent tools
A multi-ancestry genetic meta-analysis identifies 12 new loci associated with preeclampsia and gestational hypertension and proposes the integration of polygenic scores and clinical factors for disease prediction
A modified seed aggregation assay detects minute amounts of serum α-synuclein seeds in individuals with synucleinopathy, demonstrating high performance as a diagnostic biomarker.
In a study of two children with the metabolic condition D-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria type II, the drug enasidenib, developed as a selective mutant IDH2 inhibitor for treatment of acute myeloid leukemia, had beneficial effects on cardiac and neurodevelopmental abnormalities, indicating the potential for the repurposing of this drug for this hereditary condition.
Cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses of tau pathology in preclinical Alzheimer’s disease reveal that tau tangles accumulate as a function of amyloid-β burden only in individuals positive for an astrocyte reactivity biomarker.
A single-cell analysis of tumor-infiltrating T cells from 16 cancer types identifies new T cell subsets and a stress response cell state enriched in tumors resistant to immunotherapy.
Patients, physicians, and hospital administrators in the USA are often unaware of how legislation governs medical data—but agree that rights over such data should be expanded for patients and curtailed for health systems
Findings from the SURPASS-AP-Combo trial demonstrate that addition of tirzepatide is non-inferior and superior to insulin glargine for glycemic outcomes at 40 weeks when used as second-line or third-line therapy in an Asia-Pacific (predominantly Chinese) population with type 2 diabetes.
In an open-label, randomized controlled trial, normothermic machine perfusion of kidneys from donation after circulatory death was found to be feasible and safe but did not reduce the rate of delayed graft function compared to static cold storage.
For women who choose nonhormonal therapy for hot flashes, fezolinetant appears to be one of several modestly efficacious and safe options — but women want more.
Nature Medicine explores the latest translational and clinical research news, with FDA approval of Seres’ orally administered pill SER-109 for the treatment of recurrent Clostridioidesdifficile infection.
A large, publicly available dataset integrating RNA, whole-exome, T cell receptor and 16S rRNA sequencing from patients with colon cancer enables the discovery of a prognostic score consisting of tumor, immune and microbial features.
The health sector must play its part in decarbonization efforts; this Perspective outlines the principles of fair pathways to net-zero healthcare that are attentive to health and socioeconomic inequalities.
Multilevel stakeholder engagement in policy decision-making and implementation-planning is needed to build trust and deliver evidence-based health interventions.
We characterized cancer cells, immune responses and the microbiota composition in a cohort of primary colon cancers. Multi-omic analyses defined parameters associated with favorable prognosis, including a score that captured the intratumoral immune response and a specific microbiome signature. This data repository (atlas and compass of immune–cancer–microbiome interactions (AC-ICAM)) is publicly available.
