Traumatic Brain Injury Significantly Raises Malignant Brain Tumor Risk
A study of 150,000 adults found those with moderate to severe traumatic brain injuries had a significantly higher risk of developing malignant brain tumors within 3-5 years compared to those with mild injuries or no history of TBI, prompting calls for long-term patient monitoring.

Air Pollution Accelerates Cognitive Decline and Causes Brain Atrophy
A study published in 'The Lancet Healthy Longevity' found that long-term exposure to nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter in middle age (45-64) correlates with slower mental processing, impaired memory, and brain structural changes (reduced hippocampal volume, enlarged ventricles) in older adults...

Rapid Spread of Asian Tiger Mosquito Across Europe Poses Growing Disease Risk
The Asian tiger mosquito, first found in Europe in 1979, is rapidly expanding its range northward, reaching 20 kilometers annually in France by 2024, driven by climate change and urbanization; this poses a risk of increased dengue and chikungunya virus transmission in Europe.

FDA Suspends Chikungunya Vaccine License Due to Serious Side Effects
The U.S. FDA suspended the license for the Ixchiq chikungunya vaccine due to four reports of adverse events, three of which were serious and occurred in individuals aged 70-82. This follows the EMA's initiation of a review and comes amid a WHO warning of a potential large chikungunya outbreak.

Omega-3 Deficiency Linked to Higher Alzheimer's Risk in Women
A study of 841 Alzheimer's patients found that women with the disease had significantly lower levels of unsaturated fats, especially omega-3 fatty acids, compared to women without it, potentially explaining why women are disproportionately affected.
