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.
A problem with the B/V filters on SunMed adult resuscitators can cause the devices to malfunction. Due to the high safety risk this poses to patients, the FDA has assigned this recall its most serious designation.
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.
The devices are manufactured by Integra LifeSciences. Due to a manufacturing error where inadequate welding has caused bits to get stuck in patients’ skulls, this recall has been designated as the most serious type.
Josh Hawley (R-MO) voted for the “One Big, Beautiful Bill Act,” which narrowly passed the Senate. Now he’s introducing legislation to increase funding for rural hospitals and roll back cuts to safety-net healthcare programs.
American Society of Echocardiography President David H. Wiener, MD, said one of his biggest goals is to help the group thrive in the face of ongoing workforce challenges. He also hopes to get new members involved.
