          Blocking Brain Inflammation Molecule May Halt Alzheimer’s

          A new study has uncovered a surprising culprit in the progression of Alzheimer’s disease: the immune molecule STING. Scientists found that STING, normally involved in defending the brain, becomes hyperactive with age, causing harmful inflammation and accelerating brain damage.

          Sound-Powered Microbubbles Halt Brain Lesion Growth

          A new, noninvasive technique using focused ultrasound and microbubbles has halted the growth of cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) in mice, offering hope for safer treatment options. CCMs are abnormal clusters of blood vessels in the brain that can cause serious symptoms, often treated with risky surgery or radiation.

          HIV Drugs Linked to Lower Alzheimer’s Risk

          New research shows that HIV drugs called NRTIs may significantly reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. Analyzing two large health databases, scientists found that patients on NRTIs had a 6% to 13% annual decrease in Alzheimer’s risk.

          A recent study examines how the structure of social networks influences the spread of both diseases and ideas, using data collected during the COVID-19 pandemic. Researchers developed a model to analyze not only social connections but also the mechanisms driving contagion and information diffusion.

          Near Death Experiences May Strengthen Human Interconnectedness

          A new study shows that out-of-body experiences (OBEs), including near-death experiences, can dramatically increase empathy and transform how individuals connect with others. Researchers suggest this may result from "ego dissolution," where individuals lose their sense of self and feel deeply connected to the universe.

          New Imaging Technique Identifies Autism Markers with 95% Accuracy

          Researchers have developed a system that detects genetic markers of autism in brain images with 89-95% accuracy, potentially enabling earlier diagnosis and treatment. This method, which identifies brain structure patterns linked to autism-related genetic variations, offers a personalized approach to autism care. The technique, called transport-based morphometry, could transform the understanding and treatment of autism by focusing on genetic markers rather than behavioral cues.

          Brain-Boosting Gummies May Contain Illegal Hallucinogens

          Researchers warn that mushroom gummies sold to boost brain function may contain illegal hallucinogens and other harmful ingredients, after five people, including a 3-year-old, fell ill. Testing revealed that three out of five brands contained psilocybin or psilocin, Schedule I drugs, which were not listed on the labels. This poses a public health threat, as consumers are unaware of what they are ingesting.

          Nonspeaking autistic individuals may possess undervalued literacy skills, suggesting the potential for written communication as an expressive alternative. By adapting an innovative method akin to Whac-a-Mole, the research team demonstrated that a significant portion of the study's nonspeaking autistic participants could predict letter sequences in sentences, indicating a foundational understanding of written language.
