Intracardiac noninferior to transesophageal echo for preventing thromboembolic complications

19 Oct 2025

For patients undergoing atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation, intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) is as good as transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in terms of reducing the risk of thromboembolic complications, according to a study.

Paliperidone 6-month LAI sustains symptomatic, functional remission in schizophrenia at 3 years

18 Oct 2025 by

Patients with schizophrenia who either continued on the LAI paliperidone palmitate (PP) 6-monthly for up to 3 years or transitioned from PP 3-monthly treatment have sustained symptomatic and functional remission, as shown in a post hoc analysis of the single-arm, OLE study PSY3016

Shorter noninferior to standard acetylcysteine regimen for paracetamol overdose

17 Oct 2025 by

A shorter acetylcysteine regimen shows similar safety and effectiveness to the standard regimen for moderate paracetamol overdoses ≤30 g, reveals a recent study. This almost halves the duration of treatment required.

Olive leaf extracts lower BP in hypertension

17 Oct 2025

The use of oral olive leaf extract (OLE) appears beneficial to patients with hypertension, inducing reductions in 24-h blood pressure (BP), BP load, and diastolic BP variability. OLE also improves lipid profile, systemic inflammation, and body weight.

Deep learning-based model shows promise for personalizing ESCC treatment

17 Oct 2025 by

A retrospective analysis shows the ability of Vision-Mamba (Vim), a novel deep-learning (DL) model, to predict pathologic complete response (pCR) in individuals with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) following neoadjuvant immunotherapy and chemotherapy (nICT).

WHtR, body roundness predict incident CVD in males

16 Oct 2025

Body roundness index (BRI) and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) are more effective at predicting incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) in males than BMI, waist circumference (WC), and a body shape index (ABSI), as shown in a study with a 13-year follow-up.
