Discharge Mobility After Osteoporotic Thoracolumbar Fractures Using a 2-Stage Machine Learning Prediction Model: Prospective Cohort Study
Background: Discharge mobility after osteoporotic vertebral fractures is heterogeneous and difficult to predict at admission. Machine learning offers structured approaches for multiclass functional outcome prediction, but existing models predominantly address binary end points and…
Single-Nucleus Multi-Omic Profiling Reveals Muscle Genetic Regulation Layer
Population-scale transcriptomics and chromatin accessibility profiling uncover thousands of disease-associated regulatory signals missed by transcriptomic analyses, raising questions about how many therapeutic targets are unknown. The post Single-Nucleus Multi-Omic Profiling Reveals Muscle Genetic Regulation…
Short-Term Low-Fat Diet Has Lasting Inflammatory Disease Benefits
Switching low-fat diet for just a few days at the onset of an inflammatory disease such as psoriasis could impact its trajectory in both the short and long term, according to a preclinical study.…

Psychological function in the context of protracted stress during war: a multi-sample, multivariate longitudinal study
Continuous traumatic stress has wide-ranging implications for important life outcomes across multiple domains. We present the design protocol from the first waves of one of the most comprehensive studies of the impact of one pervasive continuous traumatic stress context—war—on individuals.…
Cyclothymic and anxious affective temperament in perinatal depression: findings from an exploratory cross-sectional study
IntroductionThe perinatal period represents a vulnerable period in which women may experience high psychic distress due to psychological, biological and social changes. The prevalence of perinatal depression (PND) is estimated around 15%-20% during pregnancy and 16%-18% after childbirth. Although several…
Auditory processing and communication in autism: exploring verbal abilities and vocal affective cues
This study examined the role of auditory processing in autism spectrum disorder, focusing on its association with verbal and non-verbal vocal communication skills in children and adolescents. A total of 97 English-speaking autistic participants (ages 7.9–17.4 years, mean = 12.3)…
Association between the geriatric nutritional risk index and postoperative delirium: a meta-analysis
BackgroundMalnutrition has been suggested as an important contributor to postoperative delirium (POD). The geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI), a simple indicator based on serum albumin and body weight, has been increasingly evaluated in surgical patients. This meta-analysis aimed to clarify…

Intestinal metaplasia is the only precursor to esophageal adenocarcinoma
Nature Medicine, Published online: 23 April 2026; doi:10.1038/s41591-026-04332-7We integrated large-scale epidemiological and genomic data from patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma to compare cancers with and without Barrett’s esophagus (BE). We found shared risk factors, molecular features, evolutionary trajectories and BE lineage…

Early dopamine disruption in the entorhinal cortex of a knock-in model of Alzheimer’s disease
Nature Neuroscience, Published online: 23 April 2026; doi:10.1038/s41593-026-02260-wThe authors reveal entorhinal cortex dopaminergic and behavioral dysfunction in Alzheimer’s model mice, suggesting the possibility that entorhinal dopamine loss may contribute to aspects of Alzheimer’s disease.

Will fusion power get cheap? Don’t count on it.
Fusion power could provide a steady, zero-emissions source of electricity in the future—if companies can get plants built and running. But a new study suggests that even if that future arrives, it might not come cheap. Technologies tend to get…
