Specific Bacterial Strains are Linked to Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Rapid advances in computational and genetic tools have allowed researchers to delve into the mystery that is the human gut microbiome. There are trillions of microbes in the human gastrointestinal tract that are intimately connected to various aspects of our ...

Donor Milk or Formula: Which is Better for Preterm Infant Neurodevelopment

A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association explores the impact of feeding extremely preterm infants with nutrient-fortified, pasteurized donor human milk versus preterm formula. 483 infants were randomized, with 239 in the donor milk ...

AI Tool Predicts Alzheimer's Progression with 82% Accuracy

Researchers at the University of Cambridge, UK, have developed a new AI tool that predicts Alzheimer's disease progression with 82% accuracy from routinely collected cognitive tests and MRI scans. The corresponding study was published in eClinicalMedicine. Early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease and ...

Lifestyle Choices Account for an Estimated 40% of Cancer Cases

A recent study published in CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, the flagship journal of the American Cancer Society, reports that an alarming number of cancer cases and deaths in the United States result from “modifiable risk factors.” Health professionals, policymakers, and individuals interested in ...

AI Model Estimates Lung Function from Chest X-Rays

How can artificial intelligence (AI) contribute to the healthcare industry? This is what a recent study published in The Lancet Digital Health hopes to address as a team of researchers from Japan investigated how AI could be used to analyze radiographs, commonly known as x-rays, for determining if a ...

Improving the Diagnosis of a Tick-Borne Illness

Ticks carry the bacterium, Borrelia burgdoferi, which causes Lyme disease. Lyme is becoming more common, in part because of climate change. Tick season is getting longer, and people spend more time outside in warmer months. In around 15 percent of people with Lyme disease, a condition affecting the nervous system ...

How can clinicians use spatial transcriptomics data to interpret the complexity of tumor microenvironment?

Kwon Joong Na - Chief Medical Officer, Portrai

Spatial transcriptomics offers a revolutionary approach to understanding the tumor microenvironment (TME) in solid tumors by preserving the spatial context of gene expression, which is crucial for comprehending the interactions between various cell types, such as cancer cells, immune cells, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells. By integrating high-throughput sequencing and imaging technologies ...
