In today's episode, Dr. Jennifer Lincoln (@drjenniferlincoln) joins Medlines as a new anchor! She and Eva Johnson cover an FDA advisory panel vote on an early cancer detection blood test for adults 50 and older. The panel called the test safe, then split on whether it works. The agency still has to rule. They also walk through a UCSF comparison of myomectomy and radiofrequency ablation for uterine fibroids. Both treatments improved symptoms over two years, and neither difference reached the study threshold for a clinically important advantage. Plus: new findings on animal therapy, and more.
