The former U. S. Attorney General, Pam Bondi, spoke before a small group of lawmakers on Friday. The committee was led by Republican House Chairman James Comer, who said the group would ask why some documents had not yet been shared. Bondi’s team released over three million pages about the inv
The racing legend died at 41 after a sudden collapse during a training session. He was coughing up blood and became unresponsive before help arrived. Investigators found he had pneumonia that worsened into sepsis, a life‑threatening infection. The condition also caused severe blood loss, leading
Doctors often see low platelet counts in people with heart valve infections. These low counts make surgery riskier and recovery harder. Normally, doctors would give extra platelets to raise the count before an operation. But some patients, like Jehovah’s Witnesses, can’t take blood products for reli

Many patients deal with constant seizures that don’t go away even with strong medications. Recent research took a close look at two markers in the blood—neurofilament light chain and ca
The U. S. Food and Drug Administration has cleared a new artificial‑intelligence system that can spot sepsis much faster than clinicians normally do. Developed by researchers at Johns Hopkins University, the software scans patients’ electronic health records and flags possible infection signs up to

New research digs into how long someone has epilepsy and whether it affects their brain’s waste removal system. Using a special brain scan called DTI-ALPS, scientists measured how efficiently fluid moves through the brain’s tiny cleaning tunnels. They found that the longer epilepsy lasts, the more t
Epstein’s ambition stretched beyond finance; he wanted to own pieces of the holy places he visited. By using contacts in Middle‑East circles, he managed to acquire fabric that had once draped the walls of Mecca’s Kaaba. Those same textiles later appeared in his New York townhouse, where he posed wit
The week started with a shock: Melania Trump, usually silent about politics, stepped forward to deny ties with Jeffrey Epstein and called for a hearing on his victims. Her words came out of nowhere, sparking speculation that she might be trying to protect her husband’s image or to signal a new stanc
