I've been learning a lot about medtech since I joined @FRE_SCI. The EU-funded MiWear project is developing a wearable device to monitor metabolic syndrome - a group of health problems that put you at risk of type 2 diabetes or conditions that affect your heart or blood vessels.
Using Big Data in healthcare means better insights: 🔬 More precise drug targets ⏱️ Earlier diagnosis 💊 Safer, more effective treatments 🛡️ Better disease prevention and patient safety 👉 Find out more: miwear.eu/2025/04/28/big-dat… #DigitalHealth #BigData

Top 5 advances in medicine this week (🧵) 1. The shingles vaccine reduces dementia risk by 20% People born either side of Sept 2 1933 (in Wales) are equivalent, with one difference: eligibility for the shingles vaccine Those who were vaccinated (due to their eligibility) had a 20% lower risk of dementia This might be because shingles (or its treatment) increases dementia risk, or could be a shingles-independent benefit of the vaccine (or a bit of all three) - the effect is mainly in women, though why isn't yet clear These data do provide causal evidence, but a randomised trial is planned to confirm the findings Study: nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Top 5 advances in medicine this week (🧵) 1. A tool to image inflammation Inflammation happens in a range of diseases - autoimmunity, aging, cancer - but we lack a tool to visualise it This study used CD45, which is expressed by all - and only - immune cells, as a marker of inflammation Combined with positron emission tomography (PET), this approach was used to detect inflammation (in mice!) in the lungs and colon (shown in the movie) nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Taking on Paediatric Metabolic Syndrome: A Team Effort Metabolic Syndrome (#MetS) is rising among kids and teens in parallel to the obesity epidemic. Stakes are high: more risk of Type 2 diabetes, heart disease & other complications later on. Early detection and action are key!

The #Microbiome: A Key to Metabolic Health 🌟 Did you know your gut microbiome could influence your #metabolism, insulin resistance, & #inflammation level? Leveraging this could become a future game-changer for conditions like #MetabolicSyndrome (MetS) and those related to it.

Time to Wake Up to #SleepHealth! Yes, #sleep💤: it feels amazing when we get enough, but modern life is a sleep thief. Late-night scrolling, irregular schedules, & “just one more episode” are taking a toll. But did you know poor sleep is linked to #T2DM, #CVD, and #obesity?
