The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Unveiling the Hidden Inner Architecture of Biomolecular Condensates
The cell's biomolecular condensates harbor nanodomains that trap RNA and proteins, controlling residence time and function; as they age these nanodomains move to the surface, linking internal architecture to fibril formation in neurodegeneration and promise new therapeutic strategies.
Measurement of women's breast cancer risk
Breast cancer screening adjusted to each woman's risk seems attractive for many reasons, but an important prerequisite is - of course - that the risk measurement is valid. That is what we set out to test in the recent publication in British Journal of Cancer.
Very old patients need palliative care,not intensive care - an empirical and normative analysis
The Swedish COVID-19 ICU guideline was criticised for age discrimination and lacking legal grounds. We examined ICU admission decisions for older patients during the first wave, using quantitative and qualitative data from four sources to understand how these choices were actually made.
Impact of nutrition counseling on dietary improvements, glycemic control, and neonatal outcomes in pregnant women with pregestational diabetes mellitus
Pregestational diabetes increases risks for both mother and infant. This study analyzed medical charts to evaluate how individualized nutrition counseling improved diet quality, glycemic control, and neonatal outcomes in women with pregestational diabetes.
