Indian J Pediatr.
  • Next-generation sequencing (NGS) expands diagnostic scope for rare genetic disorders.
  • Early use in diagnostic pathway improves cost-effectiveness vs prolonged workup.
  • Challenges: genomic literacy, lab capacity, workforce, variant interpretation.
  • Requires expertise in pre/post-test genetic counseling for optimal clinical utility.

Front. Nutr.
  • Repeated low serum Mg (<1.7 mg/dL) in ≥50 yrs linked to increased incident all-cause dementia vs normal Mg.
  • Strongest risk seen for vascular dementia (HR 1.63), suggesting cerebrovascular mediation.
  • Associations also observed with stroke (HR 1.37) and all-cause mortality (HR 1.52).
  • High Mg associated with increased dementia risk (HR 1.25); highlights importance of Mg homeostasis.

Int. J. Infect. Dis.
  • Antibiotics for uncomplicated sore throat prevent few invasive Group A Streptococcus (iGAS) cases (≤6.7% children, ≤2.8% adults).
  • Targeted strategy prevents even fewer cases (≤1.6% children, ≤1.2% adults).
  • Very high number needed to treat (NNT)(12,000–110,000) and swabs needed (45,000–110,000) to prevent one iGAS case.
  • Routine antibiotic use not justified due to minimal benefit, adverse effects, and increased w...

Cardiovasc Diabetol.
  • TyG-KDM-BA index, integrating metabolic dysfunction (TyG index) & biological aging (KDM-BA), predicted CVD risk in CKM stages 0–3
  • Each 1 SD rise in TyG-KDM-BA was linked to higher risk of CVD in UKB cohort (HR per 1-SD=1.65) & CHARLS cohort (HR=1.25)
  • Higher quartiles showed elevated risk (UKB HR=3.97; CHARLS HR=1.92)
  • AUC 0.657–0.659 indicated superior discrimination vs conventional indices, validated externally.
