Does grouping related research by topic help it get found? We compared Collection and non-Collection articles on reads, downloads, and citations. The new blog post shares the numbers.
In 2018, three studies combined more than one type of medical data. By 2024, that number hit 150. Where's multimodal AI actually paying off, and where's it stuck?
A blue toe kept worsening even after doctors treated its suspected source. A new Cureus case report follows a 72-year-old woman from one discolored toe to a below-knee amputation.
Rare cancers make up 25% to 30% of U.S. cancer diagnoses, but tools are built for common tumors. A new open-source AI pipeline matched 30% of tested sarcoma patients to a drug option for about $1.17 each.
A memorable case is not automatically a strong case report. The key is turning the clinical lesson into a clear, ethical story without overstating what one case can show.

New on the blog: how any specialty can enter Cureus's Longevity Medicine contest before it closes Oct 16.
Three weeks postpartum, a mother had a seizure-like episode, then collapsed into cardiac arrest. A new Cureus case report found the cause: a massive pulmonary embolism, not epilepsy.
A blocked artery in one spot rarely stays alone. Atherosclerosis is systemic disease. A new Cureus review makes the case for a bedside vascular exam, even alongside routine CT and MRI scans.
For decades, Europe has used low-dose radiation for painful joints. The U.S. hasn't caught on. A new Cureus review weighs LDRT's evidence and risks for osteoarthritis.
Afghanistan's infectious disease burden declined modestly but steadily from 1999–2023. The decline was not even: some pathogens stayed high-burden, and men and women were affected differently. Published in Cureus.
Healthcare reform usually fixes one problem at a time. A new theoretical article in Cureus proposes treating primary care centers as one connected system built from 17 parts. Still needs real-world testing.
A 20-bed ICU in India tried something different for noise and chaos: a free, behavior-based staff bundle. Nurse-reported calmness scores roughly doubled, with no added cost. Published in Cureus.
AI search increasingly decides which medical research gets found and cited. A few concrete choices—abstract structure, open access, and citation consistency—determine whether AI can trust and cite a study.

A new review of 15 studies found AI-guided chemo selection linked to better survival and response rates, and could spot patients unlikely to benefit from a drug before it's tried. Published in Cureus.
HFpEF now has effective therapies, but most guidance is written for cardiologists, not the doctors who see these patients most. A new report in Cureus offers a four-step framework for non-specialists.
MRI showed cervical cord compression, but the patient kept deteriorating. Progressive weakness, areflexia and respiratory involvement pointed to a polyneuropathy.
