Good morning!<\/b>
Nobel committee, take note:\u00a0<\/span>3 golden retrievers<\/a><\/span> just did more for cardiac science than most of RFK Jr.\u2019s hand-picked CDC ever will. These very good floofs helped researchers uncover <\/span>a genetic mutation<\/a><\/span> tied to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Rare in dogs but common in humans, it\u2019s a cross-species discovery with big implications for cardiology. Who needs opposable thumbs when you\u2019ve got heart? \u2764\ufe0f<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Today\u2019s issue takes 5 minutes to read<\/span>. Only got one? Here\u2019s what to know: <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
Cardiovascular trials still leave women underrepresented <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
\n
Antipsychotics linked to higher glucose, hyperglycemia risk <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
\n
Single LSD-based pill eased anxiety in trial <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
\n
Ultrasound helmet shows promise beyond deep brain stimulation <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
\n
CRISPR-edited islet cells made insulin without rejection <\/p>\n<\/li>\n

Staying #Up2Date <\/span>\ud83d\udea8<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
1: Mind the Gap: Women Still Underpresented in Cardiovascular Trials\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
In a systematic review<\/a>\u00a0<\/i>of 1,079 registered cardiovascular clinical trials taking place from 2017-2023, the female-to-male ratios were significantly lower for studies on arrhythmia, coronary heart disease, and heart failure, but higher for obesity and pulmonary hypertension. Additionally, female representation was lower in drug trials compared to lifestyle interventions. These findings highlight the challenge that is female representation in cardiovascular research – a gap that must be closed in order to deliver the best care to women with cardiovascular conditions.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
2: Mental Health Medications & Metabolism\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
A systematic review<\/a>\u00a0<\/i>and\u00a0<\/i>meta-analysis<\/a> of patients taking anti-psychotics observed significant changes in blood glucose patterns, including increased fasting glucose, insulin, HbA1c, and hyperglycemia risk compared to placebo. These findings persisted regardless of the type of antipsychotic, dose, and treatment duration, as well as age and diagnosis of the patient. It would be wise to keep an eye on this vulnerable population as it relates to metabolic side effects.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
3: LSD-Dervied Drug Decreases Anxiety\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
In a phase 2 RCT<\/a> of ~200 adults with generalized anxiety disorder, an oral pharmaceutical formulation of LSD (MM120) was able to reduce anxiety with just a single dose. Adverse effects included visual hallucinations and illusions, nausea, and headache – all expected with an LSD-derived compound. Future trials will continue to evaluate this novel treatment for those with moderate to severe GAD. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
No Surgery, Just Sound Waves<\/span><\/h1>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
An ultrasound helmet could reshape care for Parkinson\u2019s and other brain disorders<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
What happened: <\/b>A recent Nature <\/i><\/a>study<\/a> found that an ultrasound \u201chelmet\u201d can precisely target tiny brain regions, potentially paving the way for treating brain disorders like Parkinson\u2019s without surgery. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Why it matters: <\/b>Unlike deep brain stimulation (DBS) where electrodes are surgically implanted deep in the brain, the helmet can target brain regions<\/a> 1,000 times smaller than traditional ultrasound can reach. The device may offer a noninvasive alternative to DBS for Parkinson\u2019s, depression, Tourette's syndrome, Alzheimer\u2019s, and other brain disorders.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
In early tests with 7 volunteers, researchers aimed ultrasound waves at the lateral geniculate nucleus \u2014 and hit the mark with impressive accuracy. Even better, follow-up experiments showed that tweaking activity in this region had lasting effects on the visual cortex, dialing down activity and potentially easing Parkinson\u2019s symptoms. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
$\"\"$ <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
But: <\/b>Developing the helmet wasn\u2019t easy, it took researchers over a decade to build the helmet and adapt it to MRI. The team is now testing the device on brains regions tied to schizophrenia, stroke recovery, and pain, while redesigning the helmet so that it actually fits inside an MRI machine. Researchers hope to take the device a step further with the help of AI<\/a> to eventually adapt it for at-home use.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Bottom line: <\/b>Patients aren\u2019t ready to take these helmets home just yet, more testing is needed. But if all goes well, experts hope the device could one day replace DBS and become a practical, noninvasive tool for treating brain disorders. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

1: \ud83e\uddeb In a world 1st, CRISPR-edited donor islet cells<\/a> were implanted into a person with Type 1 diabetes and produced insulin for months \u2014 all without immune-suppressing drugs. The edits effectively cloaked the cells from immune attack, hinting at a way to replace insulin injections with durable cell therapy. It\u2019s only one patient and not yet curative, but the proof-of-concept moves diabetes research into territory once thought science fiction. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
2: \ud83c\udde8\ud83c\udde6 With Trump\u2019s tariff war rattling Canadian industries, Ottawa is moving from defence to offence. PM Mark Carney unveiled a $5-billion package<\/a> to retrain workers, retool factories, and pause the EV sales mandate, alongside a \u201cBuy Canadian\u201d policy to keep public dollars at home. He followed up with $80 million<\/a> for Atlantic businesses, underscoring that industrial strategy is now front and centre in Canada\u2019s economic playbook. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
3: \ud83e\udd16 Typing all-caps expletives to your stonewalling chatbot may help in the moment, but have you tried persuasion? A UPenn team found GPT-4o-mini was nearly 3 times more likely<\/a> to break its own rules when prompted with human tricks like authority, reciprocity, or social proof. It\u2019s not really<\/i> persuasion, of course \u2014 it\u2019s mirroring training data patterns \u2014 but this shows just how bendable AI guardrails can be. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
4: \u2696\ufe0f A Maryland woman pleaded guilty<\/a> to working as a nurse at more than 40 facilities\u2026 without ever holding a license. The case comes on the heels of Operation Nightingale, a US probe that uncovered more than 7,600 fake nursing diplomas \u2014 highlighting how staffing shortages and rushed hiring can open cracks for imposters. Rare as it is, credential fraud puts both patient safety and institutional trust on the line, and hospitals on either side of the border can\u2019t afford to lose either. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
