HOW SOCIAL MEDIA BECAME A STOREFRONT FOR DEADLY FAKE PILLS

  Hong Coco loved being the life of the party—cracking jokes, doing pranks and making people laugh, her mom, Julianna Arnold, recalled recently. “Her favorite pastime was fashion,” Arnold said. “She didn’t like looking at magazines or going to fancy stores, but preferred to make her own creations from used clothing she would find at thrift stores….

KIDS IN FAMILIES WITH TOO MUCH SCREEN TIME STRUGGLE WITH LANGUAGE SKILLS, STUDY SUGGESTS

Screens have become ubiquitous in our daily lives—which means they’ve also become part of children’s lives too. So what effect does this have on children’s developing brains, especially critical language skills? To understand this, scientists in Estonia surveyed the parents of more than 400 children about their screen use, their children’s screen use, and their children’s language skills. They found that parents who use screens a lot also have children who use screens a lot, and that children’s higher screen time is associated with poorer language skills.

YOUR EYES COULD REVEAL THE FIRST SIGNS OF MANY DISEASES

Melissa, a 30-year-old educator, came to the emergency department with a sudden onset of double vision. She had not been in an accident or suffered any trauma and had never experienced this symptom before. However, she noted that a few months earlier, the vision in one of her eyes had become blurred and then returned to normal shortly after. She told herself it was a sign of fatigue after a period of intense work on a screen. After some basic optometric tests, then more advanced tests of visual perception,

FIVE PICKY EATING HABITS—AND HOW TO HELP YOUR CHILD OVERCOME THEM

 Have you ever found yourself negotiating with a pint-sized dictator about eating a single pea? You’re not alone. Almost half of kids go through a stage of picky eating, and this typically peaks around the age of three. Our hunter-gatherer ancestors developed a natural aversion to unfamiliar foods and bitter flavors to avoid ingesting toxins. They also learned to seek and store specific types of high-energy, palatable foods to avoid starvation during periods of food scarcity. But the food we eat from an early age

AUTOMATED INSULIN DELIVERY TECHNOLOGY HELPS MARATHON RUNNERS WITH TYPE 1 DIABETES

A series of case reports to be presented at the Annual Meeting of The European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD), held in Madrid (9–13 Sept), describe how a technology giving insulin doses informed by an insulin pump algorithm helped three adults with type 1 diabetes better manage their blood sugars, enabling them to lead more active lives, and even run marathons. The AID system contains an advanced hybrid closed loop algorithm that automates the delivery of both basal and correction bolus insulin every five minutes based on sensor

SUPPORTED YOUTH BECOME SUPPORTIVE ADULTS, RESEARCHERS FIND

Adolescents who had emotional support from friends and relatives, and who were biologically prepared to respond well to others, were more likely to exhibit prosocial behavior and empathy for others as they entered young adulthood, compared to adolescents without that kind of backing. The findings came from a recent University of California, Davis, study of Mexican-origin teens living in the United States. The work was published in Developmental Psychology. The study is part of a continuing assessment of multiple generations of Mexican-origin families living in the United States

RESEARCHERS QUESTION EFFECTIVENESS OF HEALTH ADVICE FROM PROFESSIONALS

Health care professionals are increasingly giving advice to patients on how to improve their health, but there is often a lack of scientific evidence about whether this advice is actually beneficial. This is according to a study from the University of Gothenburg, which also offers a guide for more effective recommendations. The researchers do not criticize the content of the advice—it is good if people lose weight, stop smoking, eat a better diet or exercise more. However, there is no evidence that patients actually change their lifestyle after receiving this

NEW FORM OF ADDICTION CARE FOR PEOPLE WITH MILD INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY IS EFFECTIVE, SAYS RESEARCHER

  Problematic substance use occurs relatively frequently in people with a mild intellectual disability. But the mainstream addiction care is not always effective for this group. During her Ph.D., psychologist Lotte Gosens and colleagues working in intellectual disability care and addiction care developed a treatment that does work. “The participants used less alcohol and fewer drugs at the end of the program,” said Gosens. She will graduate from Radboud University on 16 September. People with a mild intellectual disability often fall outside the mainstream addiction care,

UNDERSTANDING WHAT HELPS FAMILIES WITH TEENS MAINTAIN HOUSEHOLD VAPING BANS

In the roughly 20 years since e-cigarettes were introduced in the United States, use among young people has grown substantially. By 2022, more than one in five high school seniors reported they had vaped nicotine in the previous month. Household smoking bans—rules against anybody smoking inside a home—are an effective tool for delaying or preventing teen cigarette smoking, according to Jennifer Maggs, professor of human development and family studies at Penn State, and her collaborators, so they examined whether the same might hold true for vaping. They assessed how many

QUALITY INDICATORS FOR PALLIATIVE CARE ESTABLISHED

Palliative care aims to improve the quality of life of patients and their families facing problems associated with life-threatening illnesses. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that each year, an estimated 56.8 million people, including 25.7 million in the last year of life, need palliative care. The global need for palliative care will continue to grow due to the aging of populations and diseases. In addition, by 2060, an estimated 48 million people will die each year with serious health-related suffering such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases, AIDS,

A NEW BIOMARKER MAKES IT EASIER TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN ALZHEIMER’S AND PRIMARY TAUOPATHY

 Patients regularly show up at university hospitals with diseases so rare and specific as to be scarcely known to physicians in private practice. Primary 4-repeat tauopathies are a good example. These are diseases which are primarily associated with movement disorders, but with symptoms that can often resemble those of Alzheimer’s disease, making precise diagnosis difficult. Now researchers at LMU University Hospital have found biomarkers that enable doctors to reliably distinguish the two

BABIES BORN TO WOMEN CONSUMING A HIGH FAT, SUGARY DIET AT GREATER RISK OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE AND DIABETES: STUDY

  Babies born to pregnant women with obesity are more likely to develop heart problems and diabetes as adults due to fetal damage caused by the high-fat, sugary diet of the mother. That’s the finding from a new study published in The Journal of Physiology that shows for the first time that maternal obesity alters a critical thyroid hormone in the fetal heart, disrupting its development. Consuming a high-fat, sugary diet during pregnancy also increases the likelihood of the unborn baby becoming insulin

‘RITE OF PASSAGE’ PREPS YOUNG GAMBLERS FOR FUTURE HARMS, FINDS AUSTRALIAN REPORT

  New research reveals that initiation to gambling and alcohol before the age of 18 is often seen as a rite of passage—but is linked to riskier behavior and greater gambling and alcohol harms as an adult. The survey of more than 1,100 people aged 16-35 years who had gambled in the past year revealed that around one-third of participants (29%) had gambled before the age of 18, and three-quarters (75%) had consumed alcohol before

ARTIFICIAL PANCREAS SHOWS PROMISE IN PEOPLE WITH TYPE 1 DIABETES ON KIDNEY DIALYSIS

Automated insulin delivery systems have, for the first time, been tested for people with type-one diabetes and end-stage kidney disease. The results found that they were safe and able to offer improvements in managing the patient’s blood glucose. An automated insulin delivery system (also known as an artificial pancreas) consists of an insulin pump and a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system with a control algorithm that works together to automatically deliver the appropriate amount of insulin dependent on the level of glucose. This technology has been proven to improve blood

MOUSE STUDY FINDS SEX-BASED DIFFERENCES IN HOW BRAINS HANDLE THREATS

 A new study has uncovered significant differences in how male and female mice process threats, even as they exhibit similar behavioral responses. The discovery suggests that including both male and female subjects in neuroscience research will lead to more accurate conclusions and ultimately better health outcomes. Understanding the influence of sex on brain function can help explain why males and females develop certain psychiatric disorders at different rates or with different symptoms, the researchers said. “Unless we

A NOVEL NEURAL EXPLANATION FOR CHOKING UNDER PRESSURE

  Every professional who functions at a high level of performance knows the value of keeping things loose during harrowing tasks. Choking under pressure, or being unable to perform to one’s highest standard when it matters most, is an undesirable alternative. While athletes are often associated with this phenomenon, people choke under pressure in many settings, for example, test-taking, giving presentations, puzzle-solving, and beyond. New research from Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh reveals a first-of-its-kind neural explanation for choking under pressure: a

LOW LEVELS OF MANGANESE CAN AGGRAVATE INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE

 Researchers at the University of Michigan have delved deeper into the relationship between manganese deficiency and inflammatory bowel disease and found that low levels of the micronutrient can exacerbate intestinal injury and inflammation. Their study, published in Nature Communications, centers around the genetic variant of the manganese transporter SLC39A8, which affects manganese levels in the body. People with a genetic variant in SLC39A8, or ZIP8, can have manganese deficiency,

NEXT-GEN GENE THERAPY VECTOR FOR MUSCLE DISEASES USES AI PREDICTIVE METHODOLOGY TO IMPROVE EFFICACY AND SAFETY

  A new study describes the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in designing a new generation of capsids, the structures that envelop genetic material of adeno-associated viruses (AAV), to improve gene therapies for muscle diseases. The new capsids effectively target the muscle and avoid the liver, while reducing the doses of vectors required. These results pave the way for more effective gene therapies for neuromuscular diseases, while reducing the risk of side-effects and production costs.

HIGH DOSES OF SOME PRESCRIPTION STIMULANTS TIED TO INCREASED PSYCHOSIS RISK

Prescribing rates for stimulants that treat attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) have increased significantly over the past decade, with some of the largest increases reported during the COVID-19 pandemic. A new study of adult emergency department admissions at Mass General Brigham, led by McLean Hospital researchers, found that individuals who are taking high doses of amphetamine (e.g. Adderall) face more than a five-fold increased risk for developing psychosis or mania. The findings are published in the American Journal of Psychiatry. Overall, individuals with past-month prescription amphetamine use had a greater likelihood of

STUDY IDENTIFIES FIVE KEY FACTORS THAT PREDICT RESPONSE OF CANCER PATIENTS TO IMMUNOTHERAPY

A team of researchers at IRB Barcelona has identified five independent factors that predict cancer patients’ response to checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs). The study, which has been published in Nature Genetics, validates these factors in more than 1,400 patients and diverse types of cancer. These findings provide a framework to interpret biomarkers of response to CPIs and suggest a future pathway to improve personalized cancer medicine. Immunotherapy has transformed cancer treatment in recent years by enabling the immune system to attack tumor cells. However, only 20–40% of patients respond positively to
