Type 1 diabetes incidence in Norwegian children rose 11% after rotavirus vaccination began, but similar rises followed unrelated vaccine changes.
Type 1 diabetes screening: Why one protocol worked across 8 nations
EDENT1FI tested 140,568 young people and found early-stage type 1 diabetes in about 1 in 45 with a relative and 1 in 350 without, across 8 countries.
Marathon running with type 1 diabetes: Is it finally safe?
Adults with type 1 diabetes can safely complete marathons by leveraging continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and traditional glucometers for real-time glucose management.

Can mice learn to control their own brains? A new neurofeedback system
A real-time closed-loop neurofeedback system allowed mice to modulate cortical activity and movement, adapting to rule changes for reward acquisition.
Lifelong odor sensitivity: What early exposure means for your patients?
Early-life exposure to specific odors permanently suppresses an odor processing channel in Drosophila, demonstrating lifelong changes to odor sensitivity via glial pruning.
Fibromyalgia: Is the pain real if the tissue damage isn't?
Fibromyalgia is increasingly understood as a central nervous system disorder, not a peripheral tissue disease, challenging traditional diagnostic approaches.
