Rozanolixizumab prevents congenital heart block in high-risk pregnancy

Congenital heart block, sometimes referred to as cardiac neonatal lupus, is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition that affects babies born to mothers with specific autoantibodies - called anti-SSA/Ro antibodies - which can attack the fetal heart via its electrical conduction system, leading to a slower heart rate.

Noninvasive optical system measures blood flow with precision

Measuring how well blood flows to the brain is crucial for understanding a wide range of neurological issues, from strokes to migraines to traumatic brain injuries. Obtaining such measurements noninvasively, however, remains a challenge. The scalp and skull not only obstruct viewing the brain directly but also have their own blood supply, further complicating cerebral blood flow measurements.

Can strawberries help prevent diabetes? New trial shows promising results in prediabetic adults

Daily consumption of freeze-dried strawberries for 12 weeks improved antioxidant defense, reduced inflammation, and lowered fasting glucose in adults with prediabetes. The randomized crossover trial highlights strawberries’ potential as a simple, food-based strategy to enhance metabolic and vascular health.

Fortress, filter, and gatekeeper: New insights into how the blood-brain barrier safeguards the brain

Researchers provide a comprehensive overview of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), detailing its cellular architecture, transport mechanisms, and role in protecting the brain from toxins. The paper highlights how BBB dysfunction contributes to neurological diseases and explores emerging technologies to overcome drug delivery challenges.
