Sticks and stones – mending bones
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: A novel biomaterial demonstrates enhanced bone regeneration in critical defects, offering potential improvements in orthopedic repair. In immunology, a second booster dose of mRNA COVID-19 vaccine is shown to elicit robust responses in older adults in Taiwan. Hepatology research explores new therapeutic strategies for managing hepatitis B in kidney transplant recipients. Biomarker discovery advances with a new assay enabling the use of miRNAs for non-invasive diagnosis and staging of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Finally, an optimized elastase assay improves FISH-based detection of ALK gene rearrangements, enhancing diagnostic accuracy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
