Can playing Super Mario change the structure of the brain? Two months of regularly playing Super Mario 64 was associated with increased gray matter volume in brain regions involved in, among other things, spatial navigation, planning, and motor control. https://t.co/lsAeDMITgG #SuperMario64 #BrainHealth #Neuroscience #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthetweet.
Hot beverages and esophageal cancer. Drinking very hot beverages (coffee and tea) was associated with a more than 3-fold higher risk of developing esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), but not adenocarcinoma. Given these findings, it’s probably worth waiting a little while https://t.co/075EfWMl78 #EsophagealCancer #HotBeverages #HealthRisks #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.
One thing I’ve learned: AI is incredibly powerful in medicine not only inside clinical tools, but in building them. Especially deterministic, guideline-based solutions: auditable, reproducible, predictable. AI helps build them fast - but the final product doesn’t need a https://t.co/reNa6amjR6 #AIinMedicine #HealthTech #Innovation #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthetweet.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.
Sleep deprivation can impair cognitive and motor skills to a degree comparable to the effects of alcohol. Already 17-19 hours without sleep was associated with a clear decline in the speed and accuracy of task performance. Scientific studies show that such a period of wakefulness reduces efficiency.

Will AI help optimize allergy treatment? The tool primarily identified situations where treatment could be better aligned with guidelines (in 41% of patients, it suggested intensifying treatment, in 27% continuing it, and in 17% reducing it). (translated)
AI can help detect fatty liver, which is not always noted in the report during routine tomography. AI identified fatty liver in 480 studies, while radiologists described it in only 32.7% of those cases, meaning that 67.3% of changes were meeting. (translated)
A new drug will help lower the level of lipoprotein (a)? Lipoprotein (a) is an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, and a new phase 1 study shows that a single dose of experimental siRNA (small interfering RNA) can very strongly and durably... (translated)
Nitrates in food and colorectal cancer. Higher intake of nitrates was associated with a 23% increased risk of colorectal cancer in men, while no such association was found in women. (translated)
Will AI help assess the risk of breaking the neck of the femur? RACTURE-ML successfully identified individuals at risk of hip fractures based on data routinely collected in the healthcare system; for a 2-year forecast, the model had a sensitivity of about 83-84%. (translated)
Cancers related to radiation in pilots and crew members. Among 503 professions, cabin crew and pilots had the highest and second highest share of deaths due to cancers related to radiation exposure. Cancers related to radiation (translated)
Biomarker allowing for the assessment of cardiovascular risk. Emerging or ongoing heart stress, defined based on NT-proBNP, was associated with a significantly higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and death. (translated)
Important: night shift work and cancer risk – what does the latest edition of the European Code Against Cancer say? Working at night is not biologically neutral. In the latest report on occupational carcinogenic factors, the authors of ECAC5 remind us that night work... (translated)
This could be one of the most important moments in the development of personalized cancer immunotherapy: for the first time, an mRNA-based neoantigen therapy has achieved a positive result in a phase III trial. (translated)
I believe AI models could eventually design end-to-end pipelines for mRNA therapeutics in both cancer and autoimmune diseases. In personalized cancer vaccines, the pipeline could look like this: Tumor WES/RNA-seq → somatic mutation identification → mutant allele expression → #AIMedicine #mRNAtherapeutics #CancerResearch #Therearenospecificcountriesmentionedinthetweetprovided.Therefore #theresponseisempty.
I don’t think AI will fully replace doctors. i believe the optimal model will be hybrid: doctors who know how to use AI tools effectively. At the same time, I believe AI will help us develop new therapies - perhaps based on mRNA platforms - that could enable us to cure, rather #AIinHealthcare #HybridModel #mRNAtherapies #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthetweet.Therefore #theresultis:
I believe mRNA could reshape medicine far beyond infectious disease. In cancer, it can teach the immune system what to kill. In autoimmune disease, it may do the opposite: teach the immune system what to tolerate again. Same platform. Opposite immune instruction.

A groundbreaking non-opioid painkiller may be another way to treat acute postoperative pain. LTG-001 reduced acute postoperative pain compared to placebo, acted relatively quickly, and at a higher dose reduced the need for rescue opioids. (translated)
January 2022: 4 points on Hacker News for a simple AI email extension. August 2026: Cursor acquired by SpaceX for $60 billion. 4.5 years. From 4 HN points to $60B. AI changes the rules. https://t.co/rfk6ImMHS2 #AI #HackerNews #SpaceX #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.
Wow: AI vs primary care physicians in simulated video consultations. AMIE (Video) performed as well as or better than PCPs across several clinical competencies - though this does notmean AI is ready to independently treat real-world patients. Clinical reasoning: 90% vs 76% https://t.co/TR17hgH2hd #AI #Healthcare #Telemedicine #Therearenospecificcountriesmentionedinthetweet.
I’ve taken a deep dive into the theft of medical data. Forget about fraudulent loans - that’s not the biggest problem. The real problem? Someone may now know your diagnoses - including psychiatric ones - and the medications you take. You can change a password.
