Micro-X plans human trials for ambulance stroke CT
Micro-X's new stroke ambulance head CT unit prototype is nearing field trials in Australia. When completed, the Micro-X Head CT will weigh less than 70 kg (154 lb) and will contain 21 mini x-ray tubes, as opposed to a conventional CT that is more than 1,200 kg (2,646 lb) with one x-ray tube in a rotating gantry, according to the company. Its nanoelectronic x-ray technology uses carbon nanotubes to miniaturize x-ray tubes. (Source: AuntMinnie.com Headlines)

Study Links Tiny Bits of Plastic to Worse Heart Health
We breathe, eat, and drink tiny particles of plastic. But are these minuscule specks in the body harmless, dangerous, or somewhere in between? A small study published Wednesday in the New England Journal of Medicine raises more questions than it answers about how these bits—microplastics and the smaller nanoplastics—might affect the heart. The Italian study has weaknesses, but is likely to draw attention to the debate over the problem of plastic pollution. Most plastic waste is never recycled and breaks down into these particles. “The study is intriguing. However, there are really substantial limitatio...

Puzzling skin side effects stymie advance of promising HIV vaccine
One of the most promising attempts to reinvigorate the stalled quest for an HIV vaccine has hit a snag that might seem minor but has major consequences: delaying the larger trials needed to show whether the concept works. In small safety and immune tests of the innovative vaccine strategy, which relies on a series of messenger RNA (mRNA) shots, an unusually high percentage of recipients developed rashes, welts, or other skin irritations. “We are taking this very seriously,” says Carl Dieffenbach, who heads the Division of AIDS at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, which funded a recent pha...
