Dozens of HIV experts at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention received emails earlier in June revoking notices they received 10 weeks ago that laid them off. Damage to their projects may be permanent, however, and ongoing restrictions on their research will harm lives, multiple HIV scientists at the CDC told KFF Health News on condition of anonymity because of fears of retaliation.
Boston Children's Hospital scientists have unveiled a five-day approach to generate functional vascular organoids capable of supporting blood flow and in vivo engraftment.
A cancer patient's sense of agency as an active individual is not fixed, according to a study from the University of Eastern Finland. The study, published in Qualitative Health Research, explored how a cancer patient's experience of agency, i.e., their sense of being able to influence their life, changes during diagnosis and treatment, as well as in response to wider societal crises. Conducted as a co-research project, the study followed the long-term experience of a single patient.
A new statement from leading heart and blood vessel experts in Europe is providing clinical guidance for treatments to prevent blood clots in patients with a serious condition called chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI), after they have had procedures to restore blood flow in their lower limbs. The statement, and the systematic review it is based on, comes from the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Working Group on Aorta and Peripheral Vascular Diseases and Working Group on Cardiovascular Pharmacotherapy.

The gut microbiome and the metabolites it produces offer promising insight into disease severity in critically ill patients. In a collaborative effort, researchers from the U.S. and the Netherlands developed the metabolic dysbiosis score (MDS), a novel biomarker index based on the levels of 13 key fecal metabolites—the chemical byproducts of digestion. The designed index can identify high-risk patients early and guide timely interventions that could save the lives of critically ill hospitalized patients.
Kennedy researchers have uncovered key design parameters for bispecific T-cell engagers (TcEs)—a class of cancer immunotherapy drugs. The findings may help unlock the full potential of TcEs and revolutionize cancer treatment for patients.
Winter is here, along with cold days and the inevitable seasonal surge in respiratory viruses.
