- The Vatican said Leo XIV has lung cancer and underwent removal of the lower lobe of his right lung.
- A minimally invasive, camera-guided operation confirmed lung adenocarcinoma that doctors had suspected beforehand.
- The Vatican reported a successful procedure without complications; Leo spent about three hours in the operating room.
- After waking as expected, the pope returned to his 10th-floor room; recovery was expected to last about a week.
Together, let us raise our prayer that the Lord may sustain our bishop, Pope Leo, and bring comfort to all those who are hospitalized here. May Mary, Health of the Sick and Mother of the Church, accompany our prayer and teach us to remain steadfast in love.— Cardinal Baldassare Reina, Vicar General for the Diocese of Rome, said

- Research analyzing brain scans from thousands of children identified unusual connectivity between the frontal cortex and deep brain structures in ADHD cases.
- This abnormal pattern suggests a disruption in the brain’s natural process of eliminating excess neural connections during development.
- Findings contradict the belief that ADHD results from poor parenting or lack of discipline.
- Future studies aim to explore how these brain differences evolve and vary among ADHD subtypes.
These findings definitively show that ADHD is not caused by poor parenting or lack of discipline, but rather by fundamental differences in brain development. We're seeing clear biological evidence of altered neural pathways in these children.— Dr. Sarah Chen, lead researcher at the NIH's National Institute of Mental Health
