America's Largest Hospital System Ready to Start Replacing Radiologists With AI, Its CEO Says The CEO of New York Health and Hospitals said he's ready to start replacing highly trained X-ray experts with AI as soon as it's legal.

“growing body of research suggests that AI in the X-ray room is a disaster waiting to happen”

Also: medicine advances integrating new patient information and research. Doctors see patients to get info - AI just repeats findings - so how will medicine advance?

The protective effect of breastfeeding on infant inflammation: a mediation analysis of the plasma lipidome and metabolome - BMC Medicine Background Inflammation has long-term health impacts across the life course. Breastfeeding substantially reduces inflammation risk, but key pathways, including the extent that this is due to protection against early life infection, are poorly understood. We aimed to investigate the relationships between breastfeeding, inflammation, and infection burden, and to determine the extent to which metabolomic and lipidomic profiles associated with breastfeeding mediate these health outcomes. Methods We utilised data from the Barwon Infant Study (BIS), a longitudinal birth cohort in Victoria, Australia. Infants (n = 889) with available breastfeeding (categorised as yes/no) clinical, metabolomic, and Lipidomic data at 6 and/or 12 months were included (n = 793 at 6 months, n = 734 at 12 months). Inflammation, measured via glycoprotein acetyls (GlycA), at 6 and 12 months and infection burden, including parent-reported and medically attended infections assessed through standardised 3-monthly questionnaires were used as outcomes. Results Any breastfeeding, regardless of supplementary feeding, was associated with lower inflammation, fewer infections, and significant, potentially beneficial changes in metabolomic and lipidomic markers, particularly plasmalogens. There was evidence of bidirectional mediation: metabolomic biomarkers and lipids mediated breastfeeding’s effects on inflammation, while inflammation partly mediated breastfeeding’s impact on certain metabolites and lipids. Conclusions These findings highlight pathways through which breastfeeding reduces inflammation and infection burden, identifying potential targets for optimising infant feeding.

A study in BMC Medicine finds that breastfeeding up to 12 months of age is associated with reduced infection burden and inflammation, as well as differences in metabolomic biomarkers and lipids, mediating much of these beneficial effects.

Analysis of microarray and single-cell RNA-seq identifies gene co-expression, cell–cell communication, and tumor environment associated with metabolite interconversion enzyme in prostate cancer Cancer does not have a universally agreed-upon description, but it is characterized by the unregulated proliferation of cells, which may result in the infiltration of the cell basement or the spread to other organs in the body.

In a Discover Oncology Behind The Paper blog post, the author discusses new perspectives on the molecular properties and pathways of differentially expressed genes in prostate cancer and potential biomarkers that play a crucial role in its genesis.
