Guangzhou – October 12, 2026 -- Nasdaq-listed Pomdoctor Limited (POM) said it will integrate AI, wearable devices, remote patient monitoring (RPM) and real-world healthcare data with its existing physician resources, aiming to move care from "diagnose and treat" to "predict, alert and intervene."

Pomdoctor bets on chronic disease management as the first use case

The company said continuous monitoring and timely intervention are particularly relevant to chronic disease management. Wearables and RPM can collect health indicators outside clinical settings, while longitudinal and real-world data give a broader view of changes in an individual's health status. AI would analyze these datasets, flag potential risk signals and support earlier healthcare decisions.

Vancouver – – October 12, 2026 -- The long-term uranium price closed September at $96.50 per pound, above the $95 peak set in 2007, according to figures published by Cameco. The spot price ended the month at $89.63. Prices utilities agree to pay years in advance now run ahead of spot, which market commentary attributes to buyers planning for tighter supply later in the decade.

Cameco shares were down 6.9% for the year and 11.6% over the prior month as of early October, according to Yahoo Finance. The VanEck Uranium and Nuclear ETF (NLR) was down 16.4% year to date. Market observers cite utilities' slow pace of new term contracting as one reason the contract price has not yet lifted share prices.
