The giving, some of which is still underway, will make him one of the largest known left-leaning donors in the midterms. His team provided details on the donations before most of them show up in new campaign finance filings Tuesday and Thursday. “He believes in participation in our democracy,” Howard Wolfson, Bloomberg’s political adviser, said in an interview. “And obviously, the scale of his participation, given his resources and his means, is greater than other people’s financially. But other people are participating in different ways.”Will the money make a difference? After all, Bloomberg spent more than $1 billion on his own failed 2020 presidential campaign. “He is of the view that resources matter in campaigns,” Wolfson said. Still, Wolfson said that Bloomberg, 84, who exited elected office more than a decade ago, “expects a result.”Bloomberg is particularly focused on ensuring a sizable Democratic majority in the House of Representatives, the chamber that Democrats are most hopeful of flipping and that he tends to focus on.

Researchers developed a drug for Alzheimer's disease, and then discovered that the molecule already exists in human blood, and is found in lower levels in cognitively impaired people. Now the authors are exploring the peptide as a biomarker as well as a treatment. Sergey A. Kozin and colleagues designed a peptide to interfere with the growth of amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) plaques in the brain. Preventing the formation of such plaques has been proposed as a way to prevent Alzheimer's disease or treat it in its earlier stages, in part because Aβ plaque formation is believed to precede and potentially cause the spread of toxic tau protein. Specifically, the authors sought to disrupt abnormal interactions between Aβ and zinc ions, an interaction thought to be key to the plaque formation process.

Indocyanine green may be highly sensitive in the identification of ovarian cancer metastases, though with low specificity. IntroductionOvarian cancer is the second most common malignancy of the female genital tract in the United States, according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, 2017.1 In terms of mortality, it ranked eighth worldwide in 2013 and fifth in Poland in 2019 among all cancers.2,3 The high mortality rate associated with ovarian cancer is mainly due to its late diagnosis. At the time of diagnosis, two-thirds of patients present with intraperitoneal dissemination, corresponding to International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage III or IV.4 The most important prognostic indicator in patients with advanced-stage ovarian cancer is the volume of residual disease after cytoreductive surgery.4 The primary treatment approach remains debulking surgery. The goal of this procedure is to achieve complete cytoreduction.
