(Press-News.org) Chicago, IL — The JAMA Network announces the launch of JAMA+ Women’s Health, a new digital resource designed to elevate the visibility and accessibility of trusted, peer-reviewed content that advances health care for women across the globe.
Recognizing that women’s health is more comprehensive than reproductive care, gynecologic and breast cancer, and menopause, JAMA+ Women’s Health will showcase rigorous studies that include or focus exclusively on women from across JAMA and the 12 JAMA Network journals.
Linda Brubaker, MD, MS, the JAMA+ Women’s Health Editor in Chief, will curate the site.
“There’s been so much conversation about personalization of medicine, getting down to a single individual” says Brubaker. “But if we even made the big step forward to understand the differences in genetic and physiology that women have, we will improve health care outcomes.”
JAMA+ Women’s Health curates resources from across the JAMA Network:
A select library of hundreds of peer-reviewed studies and reviews
Multimedia content including expert interviews, podcasts, and explainer features
Content that highlights underrecognized or underutilized approaches
“I understand the critical importance of women’s health scholarship, and I know that we need more of it. It’s essential that top journals actively promote this work,” said Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo, M.D., Ph.D., M.A.S., Editor in Chief of JAMA and the JAMA Network. “At the JAMA Network, we have a broad and influential platform to do just that. JAMA+ Women’s Health is our way of amplifying the rich, deep content published throughout our network. Under the leadership of Dr. Linda Brubaker, this vital scholarship will receive the visibility and recognition it deserves.”

Surface plasmon driven atomic migration mediated by molecular monolayer
2025-09-05
Highly efficient controlling the individual atomic migration is the basis of the modern atomic manufacturing. Although one-by-one atom migration can be realized precisely by STM technique, such a delicate operation is time consuming and restrictive conditions (e.g., high-vacuum) is required.
A research team from the Institute of Modern Optics and the Center for Single Molecule Science at Nankai University, China, has now reported a breakthrough method to achieve efficient atomic migration under room temperature and atmospheric conditions. Their study, titled “Surface Plasmon Driven Atomic Migration Mediated by Molecular Monolayer,” was recently published in PhotoniX.

AI turns printer into a partner in tissue engineering
2025-09-05
Organ donors can save lives, for example those of patients with kidney failure. Unfortunately, there are too few donors, and the waiting lists are long. 3D bioprinting of (parts of) organs may offer a solution to this shortage in the future. But printing living tissues, bioprinting, is extremely complex and challenging.
The team of Riccardo Levato at UMC Utrecht and Utrecht University is now taking an important step toward printing implantable tissues. Using computer vision, a branch of artificial intelligence (AI), they’ve developed a 3D printer that doesn’t just print, it also sees and ...
What climate change means for the Mediterranean Sea
2025-09-05
Temperatures in the Mediterranean are currently rising to record levels. Instead of a refreshing dip, holidaymakers in places like Greece, Italy, and Spain, among other places, are now facing water temperatures up to 28°C or even higher. With an average water temperature of 26.9°C, July 2025 was the warmest since records began for the Mediterranean Sea, according to the Copernicus Earth Observation Service. Warming caused by climate change is considered – alongside stressors such as overfishing, pollution, and habitat destruction – a major factor threatening marine and coastal habitats. “The consequences ...
3D printing “glue gun” can generate bone grafts directly onto fractures in animals
2025-09-05
Scientists have developed a tool made from a modified glue gun that can 3D print bone grafts directly onto fractures and defects during surgery. The tool, described September 5th in the Cell Press journal Device, has been tested in rabbits to quickly create complex bone implants without the need for prefabricating in advance. What’s more, the team optimized the 3D-printed grafts for high structural flexibility, release of anti-inflammatory antibiotics, and promotion of natural bone regrowth at the grafting site.
Historically, bone implants have been made of metal, donor ...
150-million-year post-mortem reveals baby pterosaurs perished in a violent storm
2025-09-05
The cause of death for two baby pterosaurs has been revealed by University of Leicester palaeontologists in a post-mortem 150 million years in the making.
Detailed in a new study in the journal Current Biology, their findings show how these flying reptiles were tragically struck down by powerful storms that also created the ideal conditions to preserve them and hundreds more fossils like them.
The Mesozoic, or age of reptiles, is often imagined as a time of giants. Towering dinosaurs, monstrous marine reptiles, and vast-winged pterosaurs dominate museum halls and the public consciousness. But this familiar picture is skewed. Just as today’s ...
New and recurring food insecurity during and after the COVID-19 pandemic
2025-09-05
About The Study: In this survey study examining food insecurity in the U.S. during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, food insecurity declined among all subgroups between 2019 and 2021 but exceeded pre-pandemic levels by 2023; new food insecurity accounted for much of that increase. The increase in new food insecurity is concerning, as these households face elevated risk for adverse health outcomes.

Pre-dialysis nephrology care disparities and incident vascular access among Hispanic individuals
2025-09-05
About The Study: This retrospective cohort study of incident hemodialysis patients found that system-based disparities in pre-dialysis access to nephrology care contribute to approximately one-third of incident vascular access disparities among Hispanic individuals. Targeted system-based remedies and policies are needed to improve timely identification and nephrology referrals among Hispanic individuals, for equitable improvements in incident kidney failure outcomes.

Rutgers and RWJBarnabas Health study finds pocket ultrasound reduces hospital stays for patients with shortness of breath
2025-09-05
New Brunswick, NJ, September 5, 2025 -- When hospitalized patients struggle to breathe, doctors typically reach for their stethoscopes, but results from a Rutgers and RWJBarnabas Health clinical study in JAMA Network Open suggest they should diagnose the problem with portable ultrasounds instead.
The study found initial exams with portable ultrasounds led to better diagnoses, shorter hospital stays and big cost savings. However, the findings revealed a need for additional training and workflow integration to help clinicians ...
