ExpandAmong children newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, 48.8% underwent at least one autoantibody test during the six months before or after the diagnosis. Of those tested, 70.1% had at least one positive result and 44.3% tested positive for two or more autoantibodies.

ExpandInfluenza rates are off to their earliest start in the post-pandemic era. The rate of influenza visits across office, emergency department, and inpatient settings reached 140.6 encounters per 100,000 patients the week of September 13, 2026, which is the highest mid-September level in the last five years and the earliest any of those seasons reached this rate.
ExpandThe share of adults diagnosed with shingles between 2019 and 2026 rose steeply with age, from about 7 per 10,000 among those born between 2006 and 2008 to 182 per 10,000 among those born between 1968 and 1975.
ExpandFor nearly every mental health condition we studied, rates of diagnoses were higher among patients with a diagnosed gambling disorder than among those without.

ExpandThe intensity of heat-related illnesses peaks in the summer and has varied from year to year with a slight upward trend: in 2017, the summer rate was 24.4 per 100,000 patients and in 2025 reached a high of 36.5 per 100,000 patients.

ExpandAmong adults aged 18–44 undergoing a first colorectal cancer (CRC) screening, a pre-screening AST below 14 U/L was associated with a 65% higher likelihood of an early-onset CRC diagnosis, and an ALT below 14 U/L with a 68% higher likelihood, each compared with patients whose values fell in the range of 14–29 U/L.

ExpandThe self-pay share of encounters rose in all four care settings studied between early 2022 and early 2026, but unevenly: the increase was steepest in the emergency department (5.5% to 7.6%), more modest for inpatient admissions (1.9% to 2.6%) and births (0.8% to 1.3%), and moved just a little in primary care (1.8% to 1.9%).

ExpandMale patients aged 10 to 15 who had an ED visit for a motor vehicle crash (MVC) were as much as four times as likely to experience a subsequent firearm injury compared with those whose ED visit was for a fall, in some parts of the United States.
ExpandThe risks of myocardial infarction (MI), ischemic stroke, and hemorrhagic stroke are increased for patients with high or low average systolic blood pressure (BP). The risks are greater at very low systolic BP than at very high systolic BP.
ExpandAt 24 months post-cessation, 56% of semaglutide, 52% of liraglutide, and 55% of tirzepatide patients kept the weight off or lost additional weight.
