Psychiatry > Anxiety & Stress — BNC210 benefits kicked in as early as 4 weeks by Michael DePeau-Wilson, Enterprise & Investigative Writer, MedPage Today December 8, 2024 Last Updated December 9, 2024 An investigational therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) improved symptom severity as soon as one month into a 12-week, phase IIb study. In
Novel BTK Inhibitor Succeeds in Heavily Pretreated Immune Thrombocytopenia
Meeting Coverage > ASH: Hematology — Rilzabrutinib specifically designed to reduce platelet-targeting autoantibodies by Ian Ingram, Managing Editor, MedPage Today December 8, 2024 SAN DIEGO -- Treatment with an investigational oral inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) was safe and boosted platelet counts in heavily pretreated patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a phase III trial
Novel Burden Score May Better Predict Asthma Severity
Allergy & Immunology > Asthma — New measure incorporates exacerbations and healthcare utilization by Sophie Putka, Enterprise & Investigative Writer, MedPage Today November 27, 2024 A novel asthma burden score that incorporated asthma exacerbations and healthcare utilization better reflected disease severity and predicted asthma remission with high sensitivity and specificity, according to an analysis of
Novel physical reservoir computing device mimics human synaptic behavior
With the rapid growth of sensor networks, innovative technologies can be created to forecast emergency situations like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, heart attacks, and buried pipeline failures using artificial intelligence (AI). As the number of sensors rises, various challenges arise, such as higher network load, delayed data transfer, and increased power consumption on the server. To

Serving tech enthusiasts for over 25 years. TechSpot means tech analysis and advice you can trust. In context: A new hacking technique raises concerns about how cyber warfare and espionage continue to evolve. As nation-state actors develop more sophisticated methods, the line between physical and digital security becomes increasingly blurred. Russian hackers have devised a highly sophisticated
Novel CAR-T for Glioblastoma Induced ‘Dramatic’ Responses in Early Trial
Oncology/Hematology > Brain Cancer — In three patients, one-time infusion of CARv3-TEAM-E T cells resulted in rapid tumor regression by Mike Bassett , Staff Writer, MedPage Today March 13, 2024 A new approach to chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy showed promise in treating recurrent glioblastoma, according to a small phase I study. In the
The existence of dark matter- about a quarter of our universe- is puzzling. Several astrophysical and cosmological observations have confirmed its presence. However, no experimental observation of dark matter has been reported. Scientists from the University of Manchester, working with the ATLAS experiment at CERN, have developed a new way of searching for Dark Matter.
A novel DNA nano-engine
Molecular engineering aims to develop modular functional units that can be used in the bottom-up design of nanoassemblies capable of carrying out challenging tasks. These systems need fuel-consuming nanomotors that can actively push passive followers downstream. With rare exceptions, Brownian motion drives the majority of artificial molecular motors, but the forces that are created are
NRC discovers novel seafood toxin that causes ciguatera poisoning
The National Research Council of Canada (NRC) has unearthed a novel seafood toxin responsible for ciguatera poisoning. The toxin, known as ciguatoxin, is found in large fish such as barracuda, moray eel, snapper and grouper, and can cause tingling and numbness in fingers and toes, nausea, abdominal pain, and even poisoning. Ciguatera poisoning affects approximately
