COVID Not Primary Driver of Pediatric Type 1 Diabetes Rise
Evidence suggests the observed increase in pediatric type 1 diabetes predates the COVID-19 pandemic, indicating other factors are at play.
ASCO 2026 June 1st Program Highlights: Novel Immunotherapy Data
The ASCO 2026 June 1st program focused on advancements in immunotherapy, particularly for solid tumours, with new data presented on combination strategies.
Alcohol and Sugar: A Dual Metabolic Challenge for Patients
Patients consuming alcohol and high-sugar diets face a compounded metabolic risk, impacting liver function and glucose regulation. Clinicians must address both factors.
Antihypertensive Use Linked to Higher Fall Risk Across Patient Groups
Antihypertensive medications are associated with an increased fall risk across various patient demographics, necessitating careful risk-benefit assessment.
Myasthenia Gravis in Pregnancy: Exacerbations Common in Peripartum
Myasthenia gravis (MG) in pregnancy presents diagnostic and management challenges, with exacerbations common in the first trimester and postpartum period.
FDA Approves OTC Switch for Topical Adapalene 0.1% Gel
The FDA has approved the first over-the-counter retinoid, adapalene 0.1% gel, for acne treatment, expanding access to a previously prescription-only therapy.
CAR T-Cell Therapy Shows Efficacy in Refractory Autoimmune Disease
CAR T-cell therapy, traditionally for cancer, demonstrates potential in severe autoimmune conditions, offering a new therapeutic avenue.
Amyloid Therapies Show Limited Cognitive Benefit in Alzheimer's
Amyloid-beta targeting therapies for Alzheimer's disease demonstrate modest effects on cognitive decline, with clinical significance remaining uncertain.

CAR-T Therapy Versus Bispecific Antibodies
The next phase of CAR-T addresses its biggest limitations: off-the-shelf allogeneic products, in vivo gene delivery, and bispecific antibodies that redirect T cells without any gene engineering. Sarah Mitchell and James Carter explore where the technology is going - and what blood cancer management looks like by 2030.
Small Molecules VS CAR-T In CLL
By the time CAR-T arrived in CLL, the disease had already been transformed by BTK inhibitors and venetoclax. TRANSCEND CLL 004 showed 18% CR in BTKi/venetoclax-refractory disease. Sarah Mitchell and James Carter explore why CLL is harder for CAR-T, where it still has a role - especially in Richter's transformation - and why timing of T cell collection matters.
Moving CAR-T To Earlier Myeloma Lines
Ciltacabtagene autoleucel achieved a 97% overall response rate and 67% complete response in triple-class refractory multiple myeloma - numbers not thought achievable a decade ago. CARTITUDE-4 has now moved it to the second line. Sarah Mitchell and James Carter cover the BCMA story, the new targets, and the resistance mechanisms driving the next generation.

Managing Acute Heart Failure And Cardiogenic Shock
Acute decompensated heart failure drives over one million hospital admissions annually. 30-day readmission rates are 25%. When the heart cannot compensate, the tools change entirely - IV diuretics, inotropes, mechanical circulatory support. Sarah Mitchell and James Carter cover ADHF management, cardiogenic shock, and how to prevent the revolving door.
Semaglutide For Obese Heart Failure Patients
More than 80% of HFpEF patients are overweight or obese. STEP-HFpEF showed semaglutide 2.4mg improved symptoms by 16 points on the KCCQ and reduced weight by 13.3% - now a Class IIa ESC recommendation. Sarah Mitchell and James Carter explore why treating the metabolic environment is the new paradigm for HFpEF.
Diabetes Drugs For Stiff Heart Failure
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction accounts for more than half of all HF diagnoses. For two decades every major drug trial failed. Then SGLT2 inhibitors changed everything - twice. Sarah Mitchell and James Carter explain why HFpEF was so hard, and what finally worked.

A new assessment tool, G-TRUST, evaluates the relevance and trustworthiness of cardiovascular risk guidelines, including statin recommendations.
The GLP-1 Muscle Loss Dilemma
GLP-1 receptor agonists drive significant lean mass loss alongside fat loss — a concern that may undermine long-term metabolic health and physical function. Sarah Mitchell and James Carter examine the muscle loss evidence, the role of resistance training, and emerging strategies to preserve lean tissue during weight loss.
The Velvet Rope Of Weight Loss Drugs
Semaglutide and tirzepatide produce results that obesity medicine has never seen before — but demand vastly outstrips supply, cost remains prohibitive for many, and prescribing criteria vary widely between health systems. Sarah Mitchell and James Carter examine who is getting GLP-1 therapy and why equity matters.
