apnews.com/article/havana-syndrome-diplomat-health-brain-ea64e5c59d57e44a19aab40ac1b91e0d
Quick Glance: Study Finds No Brain Injuries in 'Havana Syndrome' Patients
- A five-year study by the National Institutes of Health revealed no brain injuries among U.S. diplomats and government employees suffering from mysterious health problems previously known as 'Havana syndrome.'
- While the study did not provide an explanation for the symptoms, it found no significant differences in brain volume, structure, or cognitive tests between the affected individuals and healthy government workers.
- Approximately 28% of Havana syndrome cases were diagnosed with a balance problem called 'persistent postural-perceptual dizziness,' linked to inner-ear issues and severe stress.
- The results indicate that there is no evidence that a foreign power or external phenomenon has caused persistent or detectable pathophysiologic changes that could explain the symptoms of Havana syndrome.

Dad found guilty of murdering his one-month-old son: Ollie suffered a broken neck and more than 20 broken ribs
walesonline.co.uk/news/uk-news/michael-davis-found-guilty-murdering-28868705
Quick Glance: Verdicts in Leicester Baby Murder Case
- Michael Davis was convicted today for the murder of his son, after physically abusing his one-month-old child and causing 40 bone fractures, including a broken neck that led to the infant's death.
- Paramedics were called to a residence in Upper Temple Walk, Beaumont Leys, Leicester, in October 2017, where Davis discovered the baby unconscious in the crib next to his bed. Experts identified severe injuries during the autopsy, such as brain damage and body wounds that indicated prolonged abuse rather than a single incident.
- Kayleigh Driver, 29, the baby's mother, was also charged with murder. Today, the jury at Leicester Crown Court acquitted her of murder but found her guilty of causing or allowing the death of a child and causing serious physical harm to a child.
- Throughout the trial, several medical experts provided testimonies. Professor David Mangham revealed that the neck injury to Ollie occurred at least four days before the baby's death, resulting in continuous bleeding. The post-mortem examination determined the broken neck as the fatal injury.
