Vorasidenib Slows Tumour Growth and Reduces Seizures in IDH‑Mutant Grade 2 Glioma — Robust PFS and Preserved Cognition in the INDIGO Phase 3 Trial
In the INDIGO phase 3 trial, vorasidenib markedly prolonged progression‑free survival and time to next intervention, reduced volumetric tumour growth and seizure burden, and preserved quality of life and neurocognitive function in patients

Tackles, Rucks and Trade-offs: How Contact Role and Tackle Characteristics Drive Head Acceleration in Community Rugby
Instrumented mouthguards in 259 male community rugby players show tackles and rucks produce the majority of head acceleration events; tackle height and player posture create safety trade-offs and younger players face greater secondary impac

Outcomes of Maintenance Immunotherapy in Susac Syndrome
This case series evaluates relapse rates associated with various maintenance immunotherapies in 54 patients with Susac syndrome, highlighting treatment efficacy and challenges in managing this rare autoimmune disorder.

Quit Smoking Anytime: How Stopping in Midlife Can Preserve Your Memory and Thinking Skills
New research reveals that quitting smoking in mid to late life significantly slows cognitive decline, offering an added three years of brain health regardless of quitting age.

SGLT2 Inhibitors Linked to Lower Parkinson’s Disease Risk Than Metformin in Type 2 Diabetes: Large Real‑World TriNetX Study Signals Class Neuroprotection
A 20‑year TriNetX analysis of 913,428 T2DM patients found SGLT2 inhibitor use associated with a 28% lower Parkinson’s disease risk versus metformin (aHR 0.72), suggesting possible superior neuroprotection and prompting need for prospective

Patritumab Deruxtecan (HER3-DXd) Shows Promising Activity in Breast Cancer Patients with Active Brain Metastases: Insights from the TUXEDO-3 Phase 2 Trial
The TUXEDO-3 trial demonstrates that patritumab deruxtecan, a HER3-targeted antibody-drug conjugate, offers clinical benefit and a manageable safety profile in metastatic breast cancer patients with active brain metastases.

Cognitive Control Deficits in Specific Problematic Internet Uses: Insights From Clinically Validated Neurocognitive Assessments
This study reveals distinct impairments in executive functions and inhibitory control across types of problematic internet use, highlighting the need for tailored interventions to address self-control deficits in internet addiction.

Polygenic Influences and Anticholinergic Burden: Unraveling Their Joint Impact on Cognition and Brain Structure in Psychosis Spectrum Disorders
This study reveals that genetic predispositions interact with anticholinergic medication burden to influence cognitive deficits and brain gray matter volume reductions in psychosis spectrum disorders, offering new insights into personalized

Cognition-Guided EEG Neurofeedback Enhances Response Inhibition in Methamphetamine Use Disorder: A Promising Neuromodulation Approach
Cognition-guided EEG neurofeedback targeting methamphetamine cue-related brain activity significantly improves response inhibition in men with methamphetamine use disorder, surpassing standard rehabilitation outcomes and offering a novel in

Reduced Brain Iron Linked to Striatal Hyperdopaminergia in Schizophrenia: Insights from QSM MRI and PET Imaging
This study reveals that lower brain iron levels in the substantia nigra-ventral tegmental area are associated with elevated striatal dopamine synthesis in schizophrenia, highlighting a potential new target for therapeutic intervention.

Harnessing Effective Connectivity Between Cerebellum and Fronto-Temporal Regions for Objective Major Depressive Disorder Diagnosis: Insights From a Multi-Site fMRI Study
A multi-site fMRI study demonstrates that effective connectivity patterns between the cerebellum and fronto-temporal areas accurately classify major depressive disorder with over 94% accuracy, offering a promising neuroimaging biomarker to

Decoding the Genetic Complexity of Impulsivity and Its Neurodevelopmental Impact
This study reveals the heterogeneous genetic architecture of impulsivity, uncovering diverse biological pathways linking it to neurodevelopment and psychopathology across the lifespan.

Environmental and Social Injustices Elevate Dementia Risk in Older Adults with End-Stage Kidney Disease: Insights from a National Registry Study
This national registry study reveals that older adults with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) exposed to high fine particulate pollution and racial/ethnic segregation face significantly elevated dementia risk, highlighting critical environmen

Grip Strength as an Indicator of Brain Network Integrity and Well-Being in Early Psychosis
This study links diminished grip strength in early psychosis to altered resting-state brain connectivity within key networks, suggesting grip strength as a potential marker for neural integrity and overall well-being in psychotic disorders.

Evaluating Alteplase Use in Minor Ischemic Stroke: Insights from a Nationwide Chinese Registry
A nationwide Chinese registry analysis reveals no overall benefit of intravenous alteplase in minor ischemic stroke but suggests select subgroups, especially those with disabling symptoms or higher NIHSS scores, may experience improved func

Reevaluating Intravenous Tenecteplase in Minor Disabling Stroke: Insights from the TEMPO-2 Secondary Analysis
A secondary analysis of the TEMPO-2 trial shows that intravenous tenecteplase does not improve 90-day outcomes in minor disabling stroke defined by NIHSS scores, highlighting the need to reconsider thrombolysis in this patient population.

Apixaban Versus Aspirin for Recurrent Stroke Prevention in Patients with Left Ventricular Dysfunction: Insights from a Secondary Analysis of the ARCADIA Trial
A secondary analysis of the ARCADIA trial reveals that apixaban significantly reduces recurrent ischemic stroke risk compared to aspirin in patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction post-cryptogenic stroke.
