A study published 11 November in Science Translational Medicine found monoclonal antibodies selectively inhibiting MMP9 reduced pain, slowed epidermal nerve fibre loss and improved wound healing in preclinical models of painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy.[^1]

Work co-authored by Newton Tech and published 10 November in Nature Medicine describes an artificial intelligence model that identifies health correlations through movement analysis.[^2]

The model analysed data from 3,328 adults. It found associations with 1,887 of 3,210 tracked health measures across 18 body systems.[^3]

Research published the same day, co-authored by Patrick Merle, director of Florida State University's School of Communication, found infographics increased study participants' perceptions of susceptibility to tick bites and Lyme disease.[^4]

That study suggests public health messaging should tailor visuals and numerical information to audiences' background knowledge and math skills.[^5]
