A large study finds AI can read breast arterial calcification on routine mammograms to predict cardiovascular risk in women, with mild, moderate, and severe calcifications linked to 30%, 70%, and 2–3 times higher risk, respectively, suggesting screening programs could double as heart-disease risk tools.
A citywide randomized trial in Singapore found releasing Wolbachia-infected male mosquitoes drastically reduced dengue transmission by about 71% and lowered local mosquito counts, providing robust evidence that IIT-SIT can control dengue.
A Cleveland team identified SCoR2, an enzyme that removes nitric oxide from proteins controlling fat storage and production. In mice, inhibiting SCoR2 prevented weight gain, reduced liver damage, and lowered cholesterol, suggesting a first‑in‑class drug could treat obesity and cardiovascular disease, with clinical trials anticipated in about 18 months.
