Omaveloxolone slows neurological progression in earlier-onset Friedreich’s ataxia

22 Jul 2024 by

The treatment effect of omaveloxolone in halting progression, based on change in mFARS score, is particularly pronounced in individuals with Friedreich's ataxia who had disease onset at ≤15 years of age, suggests a post hoc subgroup analysis of MOXIe Part 2 presented at EAN 2024.

Osteosarcopenia found in CT scans predicts higher mortality after TAVR in older adults

21 Jul 2024

Detecting osteosarcopenia in older adults using CT scans appears to be useful for identifying those with frailty, who may have a threefold increased risk of mortality following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), according to a study.
