Medical device adverse event reports are often incomplete, inaccurate and delayed

Study Finds Gaps in FDA Medical Device Event Reports

Researchers reviewed 6,308 FDA summary reports covering 159,503 adverse events from July 2019 to June 2025.
Fifty-five percent of reports exceeded the FDA’s 30-day reporting deadline.
The study calls for improvements to preserve the ability to detect device-safety signals.

AI Came for Math. Now It’s Chasing the Rest of Science

AI’s Scientific Reach Expands Beyond Mathematics

MIT-linked researchers tested frontier AI models on theoretical problems with later-published solutions.
The best systems rose from about 2% to about 35% correct between mid-2024 and mid-2026.
The study was limited to theory questions not requiring simulations or experiments.

Healthy diet during pregnancy associated with reduced risk of infant colic and eczema

Pregnancy Diet Linked to Lower Infant Colic and Eczema

More than 1,300 Project Viva participants completed pregnancy food questionnaires.
A higher Mediterranean Diet Score was associated with lower infant colic and eczema risk.
Regular seafood consumption during pregnancy was also associated with lower risk.

Quantum 'birthmarks' hold lasting traces of a system's past

Quantum ‘Birthmarks’ May Explain How Isolated Systems Remember

Researchers propose “quantum birthmarks” as persistent traces of an isolated quantum system’s early history.
The framework challenges the expectation that long-term behavior necessarily loses all connection to initial conditions.
The work could guide studies of quantum thermalization, coherence, and quantum chaos.

Regular periods, but worse symptoms: Women with bipolar disorder may be losing out on gynecological care

Study links regular cycles to worse premenstrual symptoms in women with bipolar disorder

Survey of 267 women with bipolar disorder found higher reported premenstrual symptom burden among those with regular cycles.
The study is preliminary and does not establish cause and effect.
Researchers say reproductive mental health in severe mental illness needs more study.

Daily peanut consumption beneficially affects brain insulin responsiveness, new research finds

Peanut Intake Linked to Brain Insulin Response in Older Adults

Researchers studied daily unsalted, skin-roasted peanut consumption over 16 weeks.
A beneficial insulin-response change appeared in a right-hemisphere cluster including memory-related regions.
The finding concerns a physiological brain response, not proof that peanuts prevent cognitive disease.

Maternal house cleaning behaviors during pregnancy associated with child developmental screening outcomes

Pregnancy Cleaning Habits Linked to Developmental Screens

Researchers analyzed 81,125 mother-child pairs in a nationwide Japanese cohort.
More frequent dust-related cleaning during pregnancy was associated with lower odds of developmental screening concerns through age 3.
The observational study cannot establish that cleaning behaviors caused the outcome.

Genetic analysis reveals that some specialty coffee seeds do not match their commercial identity

Genetics Finds Specialty Coffee Seed Mix-Ups

Researchers examined coffee plants grown from seeds marketed as Sidra and Gesha in southern Ecuador.
Only two of four morphotypes matched the declared commercial identity.
One Sidra-batch morphotype had a genetic profile consistent with Batian.

Tumor biology could guide mantle cell lymphoma treatment from the time of diagnosis

Researchers argue mantle cell lymphoma treatment should start with tumor biology

A new Lancet Haematology article argues mantle cell lymphoma should be treated according to biological risk at diagnosis.
The authors highlight TP53 changes, Ki-67, and blastoid morphology as key high-risk markers.
The proposed shift could intensify care for aggressive cases while avoiding unnecessary treatment for indolent disease.

Fake doctor reviews often trusted more than real ones, study finds

Fake doctor reviews can outshine real ones online, study finds

Researchers studied 35,000 clinician reviews collected in India from 2015 to 2017.
They verified 8,313 fake reviews posted by providers or clinic staff impersonating patients.
Fake reviews were longer, more medically detailed, and received more helpful votes than genuine ones.
The study argues that privacy limits on real patients can make deceptive reviews seem more credible online.

Why Tough Methane Cuts Are Crucial For Keeping Warming "Well Below" 2°C - CleanTechnica

Study Says Methane Cuts Are Essential to Keep Warming Below 2C

A new study argues methane and CO2 should not be treated as interchangeable in climate planning.
The authors say current ambitious net-zero targets still allow peak warming above 1.85C without methane cuts.
Methane’s stronger warming effect and shorter lifetime make it especially important for near-term temperature limits.
The study calls for stringent methane reductions alongside net-zero CO2 targets.

Too much coffee may weaken bones, study finds

Heavy coffee intake tied to lower bone density in long-term study

A 10-year study tracked nearly 10,000 women aged 65 and older.
Tea drinking was associated with slightly higher total hip bone mineral density.
Moderate coffee intake was not linked to harm, but more than five cups a day was associated with lower bone density.

Thousands of Interstellar Objects May Be Lurking in Our Solar System

Study Suggests the Solar System May Hold Captured Interstellar Objects

Researchers modeled how close stellar encounters could transfer small bodies between star systems.
The study suggests thousands of captured interstellar objects may reside in the Oort cloud.
Direct exploration is not currently feasible, so the result is a theoretical population estimate rather than direct detection.

Google’s WikiSkill gives AI agents a memory of failure

WikiSkill pairs AI agents with a persistent wiki-like knowledge base that records failures and successes.
The framework separates raw execution traces, accumulated knowledge, and active procedural skills.
A validation gate tests proposed skill changes and can roll them back if performance drops.
The approach does not retrain the model; it improves future runs through documented, reusable instructions.

Recombinant shingles vaccination and the risk of cardiovascular events | Nature Medicine (via www.nature.com)

Study links recombinant shingles shot to lower cardiovascular burden

A U.S. natural experiment compared adults vaccinated just before and after the shift to the recombinant shingles vaccine.
The recombinant vaccine was associated with a 9% lower seven-year cardiovascular burden versus the older live attenuated shot.
Significant associations were reported for ischemic heart disease, heart failure, and ischemic stroke in males.
The authors say the findings justify clinical trials and mechanistic studies rather than proving causation.

Can traditional medicines go mainstream? | Nature Medicine (via www.nature.com)

Can Traditional Medicines Go Mainstream?

Traditional medicine is already used by billions globally, making it a significant part of global health.
The WHO is actively working on strategies to integrate safe and effective traditional medicine into national health systems.
Researchers are building an evidence base through modern clinical trials, while regulators focus on quality control and safety.
Integrative healthcare models are emerging as a path forward, combining conventional and traditional approaches.

Endometriosis diagnosis linked to long-lasting mental health burden

Endometriosis study finds mental health burden starts years before diagnosis

A Danish registry study analyzed data from 136,842 women.
Women later diagnosed with endometriosis showed elevated antidepressant and anxiety medication use years before diagnosis.
The gap widened after diagnosis, suggesting diagnosis alone does not remove the mental health burden.
