Children who need life‑saving emergency surgery after a serious injury are almost six times more likely to die if in poorer countries than in wealthier ones, according to an international study led by the University of Cambridge.

A new study finds that large language models (LLMs), used with straightforward prompting, perform poorly on routine number-crunching tasks that hospital administrators depend on every day to track patients and allocate resources. The findings were published this week in the open-access journal PLOS Digital Health by Eyal Klang of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, USA, and colleagues.

The TCT Geoffrey O. Hartzler Master Operator Award will be presented to Rebecca T. Hahn, MD, during Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT), the annual scientific symposium of the Cardiovascular Research Foundation (CRF). TCT will take place October 31 – November 3, 2026, in San Diego, California. The award is given each year to a physician who has advanced the field of interventional cardiovascular medicine through technical excellence and leadership. Dr. Hahn is the first imager ever to receive this distinction — a testament to how profoundly she has advanced the role of imaging in cardiovascular care.
