Brain mast cells are sparse and predominantly located in perivascular niches rather than forming dense aggregates, a feature that...<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_author\">Author: Shivani Mandal<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_date\">Posted: May 13, 2026, 10:00 am<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item\">\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/42125477\/?utm_source=SimplePie&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=None&amp;utm_content=1n3mGKHZyalujwPkqwUbwAn07fCGhPg2z0aIa7FCdEf3MAIk3p&amp;fc=None&amp;ff=20260614071456&amp;v=2.20.0\" target='_blank'>Pre-diagnosed sleep apnoea is linked to severe courses in community-acquired pneumonia<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_description\">CONCLUSION: Our results highlight SDB as a potential novel risk factor for severe courses of CAP, including the need for ICU and MV. It suggests that SDB should be considered a critical component in the risk stratification and management of CAP and that established CPAP treatment may have a protective effect. Additional study data are needed to further substantiate these findings.<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_author\">Author: Thomas Bitter<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_date\">Posted: May 13, 2026, 10:00 am<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item\">\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/42128767\/?utm_source=SimplePie&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=None&amp;utm_content=1n3mGKHZyalujwPkqwUbwAn07fCGhPg2z0aIa7FCdEf3MAIk3p&amp;fc=None&amp;ff=20260614071456&amp;v=2.20.0\" target='_blank'>EPIMETRIC: A cfDNA Methylation-Based Algorithm for COPD Diagnosis and Stratification<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"hungryfeed_item_description\">CONCLUSIONS: EPIMETRIC represents the first blood-based cfDNA methylation signature for COPD diagnosis and GOLD stratification.
