A Mayo Clinic-developed artificial intelligence (AI) model can help specialists detect pancreatic cancer on routine abdominal CT scans up to three years before clinical diagnosis. It identifies subtle signs of disease before tumors are visible, when curative treatment may still be possible. The findings, published in Gut, mark a milestone in Mayo Clinic's multiyear research effort to enable earlier detection of one of the deadliest cancers.

Pulmonary embolism (PE) may not be the first thought for clinicians presented with a pregnant woman with leg swelling or sudden shortness of breath, but prompt evaluation for thromboembolism could be lifesaving. And D-dimer testing alone may not reveal the full spectrum of risk.
Pregnant women and women in the postpartum period carry a four- to fivefold higher risk for thromboembolism than nonpregnant women, and about 80% of these events are venous, reported the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) https://t.co/6fY6uVJT9a

Intensive long-distance running could be a risk for advanced adenomas (AAs) of the colon, a small prospective study reported this summer at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2025.
Refined screening strategies for this running population are therefore warranted, and pathologic and epidemiologic evaluations should explore causation and ancillary risk factors in this unique population, according to Timothy L. Cannon, MD, oncologist at Inova Schar Cancer Institute in Fairfax, Virginia, and colleagues. https://t.co/ijkg2n605S

Clinicians are seeing growing demand for vitamins, minerals, and botanicals, driven by marketing and high expectations despite limited added value for people with balanced diets. Evidence and product quality remain inconsistent. This series reviews the data behind common supplements and offers guidance on identifying high-quality products, assessing claims, determining when supplementation is appropriate, and avoiding those that provide little benefit or may mislead patients. https://t.co/8OjwOohiBS
