A new study of more than 4 million cases finds that adults who never married face nearly double the cancer risk—especially for preventable cancers tied to smoking, infection and reproductive factors. These findings suggest that marital status could help target screening and prevention efforts.

A research paper by scientists from Suining Central Hospital proposed a novel residual-guided spatiotemporal transformer with graph fusion enhancement (RST2G) framework for precise breast tumor segmentation in ynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI).

The new research paper, published on Mar. 23 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems, developed a groundbreaking deep learning framework for precise breast tumor segmentation in DCE-MRI.

Insilico Medicine (03696.HK), a clinical-stage, generative AI-driven drug discovery company, today announced the nomination of ISM6200 as a potent, potentially best-in-class preclinical candidate (PCC) targeting NR3C1, for the treatment of ovarian cancer, Hypercortisolism (Cushing’s Syndrome), and other disorders related to excess cortisol including obesity. The process was empowered by Chemistry42, the generative chemistry engine affiliated to Insilico’s Pharma.AI, as well as the specialized applications across the molecule discovery and optimization cycle. 

Psychological stress during pregnancy is known to affect birth outcomes, but isolating its effects has been difficult. Researchers found that babies born in Japan immediately after the Fukushima nuclear accident were more likely to be born preterm or with low birth weights. Radiation exposure-related maternal anxieties significantly contributed to the differences in birth outcomes. The findings underscore the importance of clear communication and psychological support for pregnant women during crises to help prevent intergenerational harm.
