Nearly half of Americans with kidney failure who are referred for transplantation never begin the process required to be considered for a new organ, a new study shows, while less than a fifth actually complete the assessment and get on the waitlist. While experts have studied what happens once people make it onto the list, little attention has been paid to challenges in making the waitlist in the first place, the study authors said.

A gene therapy designed to replace a missing brain protein restored normal brain activity and improved behavior in a mouse model of fragile X syndrome (FXS), according to a study led by researchers at the University of California, Riverside.

Thrombospondin-1 is a component of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) produced by senescent cells. It has been shown in the past to induce blood-brain barrier dysfunction, but here researchers show that it also degrades mitochondrial function in macrophages, biasing those cells into the inflammatory M1 state. This in turn contributes to chronic inflammation and dysfunctional bone regeneration. The accumulation of senescent cells with age is known to be an important aspect of degenerative aging, and the SASP is known to change bystander cell behavior for the worse. There are likely countless mechanisms of this nature taking place in the aging body, all of which could be suppressed via reduction of the burden of senescent cells. The aging bone marrow microenvironment is characterized by chronic low-grade […]

Researchers here report on an interesting in vitro exercise in the comparative biology of aging. They took fibroblast cells from ten difference mammalian species with widely divergent life spans and chemically induced DNA damage in the cells. Modern DNA sequencing approaches allow an accurate measure of the amount of mutational damage produced by this chemical treatment, which in turn allows a comparison of the degree to which cells from different species can resist such damage via the operation of DNA repair systems. Long-lived species have more efficient DNA repair mechanisms, as determined by this approach. We test the hypothesis that excess mutations induced in primary fibroblasts by a low dose of N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) are inversely correlated with species-specific maximum life span. To measure excess mutations […]

Adjusting the operation of metabolism to modestly slow aging has long formed the bulk of fundamental research into intervention in aging. All living organisms exhibit some plasticity of life span when subject to mild stresses, such as lack of nutrients, heat, cold, and so forth. Unfortunately this strategy seems unlikely to lead to therapies that greatly improve upon the effects of exercise and lifestyle choice, particularly given the evidence for metabolic adjustment to produce ever smaller gains in longevity as species life span increases. Nonetheless, this form of research persists, driven by the scientific urge to obtain complete understanding of the way in which aging progresses in detail. Here, for example, researchers provide evidence for there to be multiple options for the adjustment of metabolism […]

arXiv:2606.19823v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automatic speech recognition remains unreliable for dysarthric speech due to data scarcity and high inter-speaker variability. While synthetic data can address these gaps, traditional methods often require extensive speaker-specific data, reintroducing the collection bottleneck. We investigate zero-shot voice cloning as a low-burden augmentation strategy, using Higgs Audio V2 to clone speakers in the TORGO dataset. We fine-tune (FT) Whisper-medium on cloned, real, and hybrid data and evaluate on held-out real speech. Compared to the zero-shot (31.62%), Clone FT achieved a competitive 26.00% WER, nearly matching the 24.44% and 25.12% seen with Real and Hybrid FT, respectively. Notably, Clone and Hybrid FT outperform Real FT for moderate-severe speakers. Clone FT achieves the best results (11.45% relative) in cross-corpus evaluation on the SAP-1102. These results suggest that zero-shot cloning provides scalable training data that

arXiv:2606.20323v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep Transfer Learning (DTL) allows for the efficient building of Intelligent Fault Diagnosis Systems (IFDS). On the other hand, DTL methods still heavily rely on large amounts of labelled data. Obtaining such an amount of data can be challenging when dealing with machines or structures faults. This document proposes a novel approach to the design of vibration-based IFDS using DTL in condition of strong data scarcity. A periodic multi-excitation level procedure leveraging intrinsic non-linearities of real-world systems is used to produce images that can be conveniently analysed by pre-trained Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to diagnose faults. A new data visualization method and its augmentation technique are proposed in this paper to tackle the typical lack of data encountered during the design of IFDS. Experimental validation on a railway pantograph structure provides effective support for the proposed method.

arXiv:2606.20164v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Real-world clinical decision support requires reasoning over heterogeneous and longitudinal patient information rather than answering isolated medical questions. However, current medical large language models and retrieval-augmented generation systems often rely on single-step prompting or retrieval, which can be fragile when clinical evidence is distributed across long electronic health records, medical images, sensor streams, guidelines, and referral constraints. This paper proposes MedRLM, a Recursive Multimodal Health Intelligence framework for long-context clinical reasoning, sensor-guided screening, and community-to-tertiary referral support. Instead of compressing all patient information into one prompt, MedRLM treats the patient case as an external clinical environment that can be recursively inspected, decomposed, retrieved, verified, and synthesized. The framework coordinates specialized agents for clinical text, longitudinal

With tens of millions of annual cases, gonorrhea is the second most frequently reported sexually transmitted infection (STI). In the U.S. alone, more than 600,000 cases are reported each year. If left untreated, gonorrhea can result in severe reproductive health issues, including infertility in both women and men and pelvic inflammatory disease. The infection also increases the risk of HIV transmission, and—if the pathogen spreads from the genitals or throat to other parts of the body—it can damage the heart and cause meningitis and sepsis.

Early isolation can be a biomarker for patients at increased risk for poor outcomes.

arXiv:2606.18536v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The large-scale digitization of educational assessment has made the continuous oversight of item banks both essential and complex.

However, this algorithm-centric trajectory has also revealed a growing imbalance: while computational methods advance rapidly, the conceptual foundations that define imaging tasks, evaluation metrics, and clinical meaning sometimes remain underexamined. In this Perspective, we distinguish algorithmic innovation, which focuses on improving computational implementations and performance within a fixed problem definition, from conceptual innovation, which reframes what problems are posed, how success is measured, and why an approach is clinically relevant.

arXiv:2606.19042v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In vibe coding, an emerging AI-driven paradigm, an LLM generates an entire program from a natural language prompt, but what happens to the variability that traditional software engineering carefully builds into code? To answer this question, we conducted an exploratory analysis on 10 vibe coded C/C++ projects, which suggests that there is near-zero in-artifact variability, i.e., at compile and runtime. All variability decisions are resolved at a single new binding time, generation time, the moment the LLM produces the source code. Rather than treating this as a defect to fix, we propose Variability by Regeneration (VbR), to our knowledge the first product-line approach in which the LLM acts as the derivation engine, generating a purpose-built, free of dead code binary for each variant from a declarative specification, while a variant dispatcher transparently routes user requests to the matching binary. We formalise VbR, contrast it with

arXiv:2606.18816v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Hybrid brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) that integrate motor imagery (MI) and steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP) provide high-dimensional neural decoding but typically exceed the computational limits of embedded hardware. To address this, we propose SwitchBraidNet, a compact EEG classification architecture designed for low-power deployment. The model employs a dual-path temporal braid to extract multiscale oscillatory features, an adaptive squeeze-and-excitation spatial switch for electrode gating, and a log-variance readout layer for direct band-power encoding. Furthermore, through systematic quantisation-aware training on the OpenBMI dataset, we compared SwitchBraidNet against four established baselines across FP32, FP16, and INT8 precisions. Experimental results demonstrate superior efficiency and performance, achieving MI accuracy of 69.49% (FP16), SSVEP accuracy of 93.48% (FP32), and a hybrid information transfer rate of
