Recent advancements in brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are providing new communication tools for individuals with paralysis, as demonstrated in clinical trials and research presented at Neuroscience 2026.
Recent research highlights the development of new biomarkers that may improve the detection and treatment of neurological and psychiatric disorders, including Alzheimer's disease and depression.
A Nov. 13, 2026 Medical Xpress report, republished from The Conversation, describes a Nature Medicine study of Tu-stroma. It reports encouraging detection of Stic in stored blood but no evidence that screening saves lives or that the marker is ready for clinical use.
A Science Advances paper reports NAD conversion in human cells and better outcomes in injured mice and flies. Stool data link lower N-MNA to more inflammation in IBD, but no patient treatment trial was run.
A Vilnius University study finds stable NAD in healthy men and a small rise in healthy women, lower levels in cardiovascular disease and hypertension; researchers caution that cause, tissue meaning and supplement benefits remain unproven.
A HealthDay report published by Medical Xpress pairs APA survey figures with clinician and institutional commentary to separate short-term stress responses from chronic risk, while leaving causation, thresholds and intervention effects open.
