Artificial pancreas moves toward patient testing phase
An experimental artificial pancreas developed by the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and Johnson & Johnson with DexCom could reach patients in under a year of initial testing, with a commercial model possible in four years. It would continuously monitor blood sugar and automatically adjust insulin, easing daily management for about 6 million U.S. diabetics and potentially reducing severe complications.

Donor Windpipe Grows In Arm Then Joins Throat
Linda De Crouck endured two decades of pain from a crushed windpipe before Belgian surgeons implanted a donor windpipe into her arm to grow tissue, then transplanted it to her throat. The approach, reported in the New England Journal of Medicine, could enable body-grown organs and reduce immune rejection, though it remains rare and complex. De Crouck, 54, no longer needs anti-rejection drugs and reports a life transformed, with ongoing scans every six months.
