Researchers at the University of Florida College of Medicine say mRNA technology could "educate" the immune system to identify and attack cancer anywhere in the body. A promising proof-of-concept study using mice was published in Nature Biomedical Engineering.
Ritesh Kalra, MD, allegedly wrote 31,000 opioid prescriptions between 2019 and 2025, many of which were illegitimate. He is accused of inappropriately touching patients in exchange for oxycodone scripts as part of a five-count criminal indictment.

Heartflow, known for its AI-based CCTA evaluations, appears to be going public. The news follows years of momentum for the California-based company, including improved Medicare reimbursements for cardiac CT and a new Category I CPT code for its Plaque Analysis software.
One of the study's most significant findings was that patients managed using the advanced AI software saw LDL cholesterol drops of 18.7 mg/dL, with a 15% reduction in their risk of a cardiac event. Even patients with no calcified plaque saw significant changes in care management.
A heart team chose to perform BASILICA before valve-in-valve TAVR in a failed Lotus device to help minimize the risk of complications. These scenarios will likely grow more and more common as patients outlive their TAVR valves.
Are care teams doing enough to take on inflammation? The American Heart Association hopes this new research initiative can help answer that question, and many others.
Over 97% of all counties in the U.S. see high or very high levels of consolidation in Medicare Advantage markets, with UnitedHealthcare and Humana owning the most plans nationwide.
Former Steward Health Care CEO Ralph de la Torre, MD, and other executives are accused in a $1.4 billion legal filing of paying themselves hundreds of millions of dollars in bonuses, despite the health system being insolvent.
