This comprehensive study provides crucial insights into the changing landscape of respiratory pathogen infections in Guangzhou over an 11-year period. The predominance of MP, particularly among school-age children and females, highlights the need for targeted interventions. The unexpected coagulation profiles in confirmed infections suggest complex pathophysiological mechanisms that warrant further investigation. These findings have important implications for clinical management, diagnostic approaches, and public health strategies in urban settings.

(WASHINGTON, June 13, 2025) – Women with breast cancer who were also carriers of the BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation and received textured breast implants as part of their reconstructive surgery after mastectomy were 16 times more likely to develop breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL), a rare T-cell lymphoma, compared with similar women without these genetic mutations, according to a study published today in Blood Advances.

The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) has launched a new mobile app that offers surgeons and multidisciplinary medical providers real-time access to its suite of adult cardiac surgery and thoracic surgery risk calculators.

New research has been published ahead-of-print by The Journal of Nuclear Medicine (JNM). JNM is published by the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, an international scientific and medical organization dedicated to advancing nuclear medicine, molecular imaging, and theranostics—precision medicine that allows diagnosis and treatment to be tailored to individual patients in order to achieve the best possible outcomes.
