I Gostivar, Nordmakedonien, har en pump upptäckts som slussat Vardarflodens vatten direkt in i dricksvattensystemet. Detta misstänks ha orsakat en epidemi med hundratals fall av diarré, kräkningar och feber sedan den 13 juli. Åklagare har inlett en utredning mot det kommunala vattenbolaget Vodovod och kommunen.

Scientists utilized a cutting-edge RUSH3D-HR microscope to observe electroacupuncture's ability to suppress immune cell movement to inflammation sites in mouse spleens, providing real-time evidence of its anti-inflammatory mechanisms and potential for future biological research.

A comprehensive review of IVF add-ons found most lack reliable evidence of effectiveness, offering false hope and financial strain to patients. Only three showed weak evidence of possible benefit.

Clair Health, a startup founded by Stanford graduates, has raised $11.6 million to develop a wearable device and AI-powered voice analysis for tracking women's hormonal health, aiming to provide insights into cycle irregularities, perimenopause, and hormonal fluctuations.
Cardiologists suggest focusing on four markers beyond LDL cholesterol for a comprehensive cardiovascular risk assessment: ApoB, hs-CRP, insulin resistance, and abdominal obesity. These factors provide insights into harmful particle counts, inflammation, metabolism, and fat distribution, aiding earlier detection of potential heart attacks and strokes.

Recent studies reveal that certain carbohydrates, particularly those rich in fiber and plant compounds like buckwheat, oats, purple potatoes, sorghum, and spelt, can help reduce inflammation and promote overall health, contrary to the common belief that all carbs increase inflammation. Refined carbs, however, are still linked to increased inflammation.
Thyroid dysfunction affects 42 million in India. Dr. Vaibhav Gupta explains that while many hypothyroidism cases require lifelong treatment, temporary inflammation or postpartum issues may resolve, allowing for gradual medication reduction. Hyperthyroidism aims for remission. Stopping medication abruptly is dangerous.

Scientists from the University of Kentucky have found that the experimental drug MW150 can reduce brain inflammation associated with alcohol withdrawal. Originally developed for dementia and Alzheimer's, MW150 targets the p38α MAPK pathway, which is linked to neuroinflammation.

Japan faces rising temperatures, with heatstroke risks amplified by humidity. Experts warn of the "inflammation domino" effect, where inflammation can persist even after body temperature normalizes, potentially leading to severe complications.

Former Chelsea forward is thriving on the south coast and targeting victory over Liverpool in the Women’s FA CupFran Kirby knows what she brings. She always has. The Brighton forward is not young for a footballer but, at 32, she’s not old either and, injury free, is reminding people she still has it. “I know I am not the same player that I was when I was 25, I’m not naive,” she says. “That’s not who I am anymore, but I know what I can bring and that is creativity, the passes that other people won’t try. I’ve always said it: I will always try a pass, even if it doesn’t come off. That’s how I play. I play with risk. Sometimes it doesn’t work, sometimes it does.”That eye for a pass is regularly on display. A recent standout was Kirby’s assist for Kiko Seike in Brighton’s thrilling 3-2 win over Manchester City. The obvious move was to play a pass into Seike’s feet; instead Kirby squeezed the ball between two defenders, taking them out of the action, and into space for her Japanese teammate to collect and fire in. It was vintage Kirby and, after her Chelsea career was blighted by injuries and pericarditis (inflammation of the heart lining), it is wonderful to see a woman who earned 77 caps for England playing at such a level.

The Boston Red Sox placed ace left-hander Garrett Crochet on the 15-day injured list with inflammation in his pitching shoulder before Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays in Toronto. The 26-year-old two-time All-Star is off to a rough start with a 6.30 ERA over six starts, including a career-worst 10 earned runs against the Twins two weeks ago. The Red Sox fired manager Alex Cora and multiple coaches later the same day Crochet pitched six shutout innings against the Orioles. The team has not named a replacement for Crochet's next start Friday.

A study by University of Cambridge researchers reviewing 44 existing studies found that Black women experience higher levels of oxidative stress, inflammation, and uteroplacental vascular resistance during pregnancy—physiological pathways linked to pre-eclampsia, preterm birth, and foetal growth restrictions. The researchers conclude these differences are not genetic but result from socioenvironmental stressors including systemic racism and socioeconomic deprivation. Black women in the UK are 2.7 times more likely to die during childbirth and Black babies are twice as likely to be stillborn compared to white counterparts.
