Low-Molecular-Weight Fucoidan in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Recent research has investigated whether low-molecular-weight fucoidan, a compound derived from brown seaweed, could enhance the efficacy of TACE.

ERS 2025: Dog Allergen Exposure in Infancy Lowers Childhood Asthma Risk

The CHILD study analysis found that early exposure to higher levels of dog allergen reduced asthma risk and improved lung function at age 5, with effects modified by genetic background.

Endometrioma Surgery Before IVF May Not Help Fertility

A new study finds that surgery for ovarian endometriomas before IVF or ICSI does not improve live birth rates, supporting a more tailored fertility approach.

Preterm Birth Linked to Higher Malaria Risk in Children

A Mali cohort study shows preterm birth elevates malaria infection risk in children, particularly in multigravid mothers without pregnancy malaria, suggesting targeted prevention and vaccination strategies.

TGF-β1 Blockade Restores Bone Marrow Endothelial Function

A study reveals that TGF-β1 drives maladaptive bone marrow endothelial cell repair, impairing haematopoietic support. Blocking TGF-β1 with luspatercept restored cell function and improved blood cell recovery in post-transplant patients.

ERS 2025: Robotic Bronchoscopy Redefines Early Lung Cancer Diagnosis

Robotic-assisted bronchoscopy with cone-beam CT achieved far higher diagnostic yields than conventional bronchoscopy, particularly for small and ground-glass lesions, offering a powerful new tool for early lung cancer diagnosis.

Pre-Bedtime Habits Have Limited Impact on Sleep in Teens

Research in adolescents shows that screen use, physical activity, and pre-bedtime food have little impact on youth sleep outcomes, though screens delay sleep onset. Guidelines for bedtime behaviors may need updating.
