Objektiv adherensmätning öppnar vägen för bättre prognoser vid förstaepisod psykos. En finsk långtidsstudie på 78 patienter visar att aktuella positiva symptom är den starkaste förklaringsfaktorn till behandlingstrogenhet — varje punkt högre på symptomskalan motsvarar cirka 4–5 procent lägre adherens — medan tidigare icke-trogenhet paradoxalt förutsäger senare trogenhet. Forskarna använde terapeutisk läkemedelövervakning (TDM) genom plasmakoncentrationsmätningar av antipsykotika vid baseline, två månader och tolv månader. Traditionell väisdom om insikt och negativa symptom som adherensdrivare fick inget stöd. Fynden innebär att kliniker bör fokusera on-demand insatser på perioder med höga positiva symptom snarare än på statiska baslinjemål. Regioproducenters inköpsstrategier för TDM-kapacitet och tidiga interventionsprogram bör byggas på dynamisk symptomövervakning.

**Maternal- och neonatal hälsa kräver ompositionering efter 2030-målens utgång** The Lancet Commission on Maternal and Newborn Health presenterar en omvärdering av strategier för moder- och neonatal hälsa när Agenda 2030 löper ut. Arbetet utgår från svenska institutioner—Lund University, Sahlgrenska och Skåne University Hospital—tillsammans med portugisiska motsvarigheter. Kommissionen analyserar vilka interventioner och policybeslut som effektivast reducerar mödra- och barnsdödlighet framöver. Studien adresserar luckor i nuvarande evidensbaserade riktlinjer och identifierar prioriteringsområden för kommande decennium. För regionala inköpschefer och medicinska ledare är detta relevant för att justera anskaffningsstrategier för mödravårdsresurser och nyföddsintensivvård. Regulatoriska specialister följer uppdaterade WHO-rekommendationer som kommissionen förväntas påverka. Långsiktiga planeringscykler bör förberedas redan nu för att möta nya evidensstandards.

ChatGPT-assisterad inlärning förbättrar tandläkarstudenter förståelse för intraorala röntgenteknik jämfört med egen studier. I en jämförande studie på 48 tredjearsstudenter vid BDS visade gruppen som använde strukturerade ChatGPT-samtal signifikant högre poäng efter undervisning, särskilt för bisektringsteknik och okklusalröntgen avseende principer, filmplacering och strålpositionering (p < 0,05). Kontrollgruppen som studerade självständigt visade försämrade resultat för flertalet komponenter. Intergruppanalys påvisade statistiskt signifikant skillnad för filmhållarkomponenten (p = 0,044). Fyndet är relevanta för utbildningsavdelningar inom regionvård och tandläkarkliniker som investerar i kompetenshöjning. Eftersom intraorala röntgenteknik är obligatorisk men komplex utbildningskomponent, kan AI-drivna verktyg minska studietid och standardisera inlärning. Resultaten föreslår att chatbotintegration som supplement till traditionell undervisning möjliggör tidigare tvärsäkrad kunskap hos tandläkarstudenter.

Typ 2-diabetespatienters komplikationsrisk beror på sjukdomsursprung — inte bara glukoskontroll. En dansk registerbaserad studie med 7 867 nydiagnostiserade patienter visar att individer med genetisk benägenhet, låg fostervikt eller övervägande livsstilsfaktorer utvecklar distinkt olika sjukdomsprofiler. Genetiskt betingade patienter hade bäst kardiovaskulär prognos: 11,5 procent tiouarsrisk för allvarliga hjärtkärlhändelser. Fosterviktgruppen uppvisade högst risk (14,8 procent) trots senare sjukdomsdebut. Livsstilsgruppen — 56 procent av kohorten — låg däremellan (13,2 procent). Alla grupper utom den genetiska visade nedsatt insulinkänslighet och förhöjd inflammation vid diagnos. Dansk forskning från Steno Diabetes Centers och Aarhus University Hospital avslöjar att riskstratifiering vid diagnos bör inkludera genetisk profil och fosterviktshistoria. Detta möjliggör målriktad preventionsstrategi och differentierad behandlingsintensitet redan vid debut.

Salivkemi kan skilja prediabetiker med tandlossning från friska personer och öppnar vägen för enklare diagnostik inom primärvården. Forskare vid Helsingfors universitet och Karolinska institutet identifierade en biomarkörprofil — höga nivåer av matrix metalloproteinase-8 (tMMP-8) kombinerat med låga adiponektinnivåer — som effektivt särskiljer den högriskgruppen från kontroller (AUC = 0,925). Studien omfattade 84 vuxna stratifierade efter metabol och periodontal status. tMMP-8 korrelerade starkt med blodsocker (HbA1c), tandlösningsmått och BMI, medan adiponektin visade omvänd relation till dessa parametrar. Kompositprofilen förklarade 37,1 procent av inflammationen. För regionvården betyder detta en möjlig screening-verktygskombination som kräver endast ostimulerande saliva — kosteffektivt och patiëntacceptabelt — samtidigt som det adresserar den ofta missade kopplingen mellan metabol sjukdom och muntlig hälsa.
