VOLGA is positive: perioperative durvalumab + neoadjuvant EV improves EFS and OS in cisplatin-ineligible MIBC.
Key difference from KEYNOTE trials: no adjuvant ADC here, only IO. So in pCR patients, is adjuvant ADC really needed? Looking forward for details.

Do you still believe that cognitive decline is an inevitable part of aging?
A double-blind, randomized clinical trial (the gold standard of science) challenges this narrative.
The study found that for adults aged 65-80, daily consumption of wild blueberries improved brain processing speed.
Anthocyanins, abundant in wild blueberries, sharpen how quickly your neurons communicate with each other.
If a simple dietary shift can measurably upgrade your executive function, why are you still waiting for a pharmaceutical "fix"?
Action Plan:
1. Opt for wild blueberries (often found in the freezer aisle)
2. Aim for approximately one cup daily to match the levels used in clinical studies.
3. Make it a non-negotiable part of your morning routine to see the cumulative metabolic benefits.

Marlboro maker accused of ‘exploiting’ young people with new global ad campaign.
Philip Morris claimed it wanted to end cigarette sales, but experts and campaigners say new promotions seem designed to attract younger consumers.

Aging is a silent thief of Nitric Oxide (NO).
As we get older, our endothelial lining, the inner skin of our blood vessels, loses its ability to produce this vital molecule. The result? Stiffer vessels and higher cardiovascular risk.
Over the lifespan (ages 20–91), flow mediated dilation (a measure of a blood vessels ability to expand) drops by 48–64% in healthy nonsmoking adults
But you can bypass the factory and provide the raw materials directly.
The Nitrate-to-Nitric oxide pathway allows these 6 powerhouses to do the heavy lifting for your heart:
•Arugula (The undisputed nitrate king)
•Beetroot
•Radish
•Spinach
•Celery
•Lettuce
Pro-tip: Don't use antibacterial mouthwash immediately after eating these. You need the bacteria on your tongue to convert nitrates into nitrites!
Eat your greens. Your blood vessels will thank you. 🥬🩸

@_atanas_ @_MCRicardo_ We spent decades isolating compounds and acted shocked when whole-body outcomes never matched. Systems biology is hardly new, yet UK policy still chases narrow drug targets.

@_atanas_ @DHPSP @_MCRicardo_ And we are far more than a bag of stimulus-response circuits and chemicals fading into Entropy’s dispersive hands.

@_atanas_ @_MCRicardo_ And epigenetics makes choices and consequences that are not linear at all. Global complexity altered by need. It’s lovely stuff this thing called Life.

@_atanas_ The result of increasingly advanced technology is that we die knowing exactly what's going on . Looks like from now on, not only should we eat less takeout to avoid technology and harsh work, but we should also wash our vegetables twice more to avoid pesticides

@_atanas_ If an AI system can prescribe, then it must be governed like something that can cause clinical harm, not like ordinary software with a medical use case.

@_MCRicardo_ Reductionist nutrition failed because humans do not metabolize isolated compounds

New urine test for lung 🫁 health? Scientists have developed an injectable nanoprobe that detects therapy-induced cellular senescence and pC- simply by peeing in a cup.
The probe releases gold nanoclusters when cut by MMP-7, an enzyme elevated in senescent lung #cancer cells and fibrotic tissue. These tiny clusters pass into urine, where a simple colorimetric assay reveals disease activity.
In mouse models, the test tracked chemotherapy-induced senescence, monitored senolytic drug effects, and spotted early #lung fibrosis - noninvasively and longitudinally.

Obesity has risen in all countries - but at a faster pace in poorer ones.
New global study of 232 million people reveals a dramatic split in the #obesity epidemic: In high-income Western countries, the rise in obesity has plateaued or even begun to reverse, especially among children, with countries like Japan, France, and Denmark stabilizing at low prevalence levels (3–6%).
But in most low- and middle-income nations, obesity is accelerating faster than ever, with 2024 velocities hitting record highs across Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Pacific Islands.
The study, analyzing four decades of data from 200 countries, shows that while some wealthier nations have curbed the rise (likely due to food policies, social norms, and health awareness), developing regions are seeing obesity surge - even where prevalence already exceeds wealthy countries.

Your brain is only 2% of body weight, but it uses 20% of your oxygen and 25% of your glucose.
So, it’s a “fuel hog.”
But the bigger story is blood flow.
Most adults deliver about 15% of their cardiac output to their brain, and that ratio is higher in women and declines with age. (Cerebral blood flow & aging: Iadecola et al., Neurology/PMC review 2017)
Your heart is essentially a delivery service for your brain and and dependent on the quality of your cardiovascular system.
Supporting heart health is one of the most direct ways to protect brain energy, cognition, and resilience.
3 simple wins today:
• Take a 15-minute walk.
• Work from a different chair or take a phone call while standing. Tiny environmental shifts build new brain connections.
• Prioritize 7+ hours of sleep.

SIRT6 overexpression counteracts chromatin aging in the male murine liver
“Furthermore, AAV-mediated SIRT6 overexpression in aged male mice demonstrates that SIRT6 not only slows age-related chromatin changes but can also reverse them, rejuvenating chromatin accessibility to a youthful state.”
