'LifeLeaf delivers clinically validated performance without the usual barriers of needles, cuffs, or cost,' said Dr. Samuel J. Asirvatham and Dr. Narayan G. Kowlgi of Cardiovascular Medicine, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN. 'By making blood pressure and glucose monitoring effortless and non-invasive, it drives better patient adherence, which is crucial for managing chronic conditions like hypertension and diabetes. This scalable solution has a strong potential to transform care models globally by enabling proactive, patient-friendly disease management.'
Global Dataset
LifePlus has collected and analyzed over 70,000 paired multi-biomarker datapoints from more than 500 human subjects across 14 countries and 4 continents. 'This robust dataset spans a wide range of demographics—including skin tone, age, gender, and BMI—supporting the development of proprietary signal processing and highly generalizable, multi-biomarker advanced AI/ML algorithms and models,' said Ben Mbouombouo, Chief Operating Officer and Product GM of LifePlus.
Clinical Results
LifePlus has already conducted multiple clinical studies to demonstrate clinical validation for LifeLeaf. The most recent results of its performance vs BGM for glucose monitoring are scheduled to be showcased at the upcoming American Diabetes Association (ADA) Meeting, June 20-23, 2025. Earlier, LifeLeaf's performance vs CGM was shared at the Advanced Technology and Treatment for Diabetes (ATTD) meeting in 2023. LifePlus also published clinical validation results for blood pressure in the European Society of Hypertension meeting in 2023. Please see key highlights below:
Glucose Monitoring
In head-to-head studies, LifeLeaf achieved an impressive 10.8% MARD against BGM references 1 and 8.5% MARD against Dexcom G6 2 for a target dynamic range of 70-250 mg/dL, demonstrating non-invasive glucose monitoring is not only possible, but viable and scalable for real-world use.
LifeLeaf attained a low 2% outlier rate 1 in blinded continuous glucose monitoring studies, comparable with invasive alternatives and underscoring its clinical reliability.
Blood Pressure
The cuffless blood pressure feature of LifeLeaf demonstrated impressive accuracy, with a mean difference ± standard deviation of –0.02 ± 12.5 mmHg for systolic and 0.03± 8.4 mmHg for diastolic measurements 3 for a supported dynamic range of 90/55-170/110 mmHg, validated across multiple clinical studies and real-world settings.
LifeLeaf collected indefinite long-term blood pressure data as opposed to traditional ambulatory monitors, offering continuous, real-world views. LifePlus is engaged with the world's leading clinicians to establish a new longitudinal metric for assessing arterial stiffness that may better predict long-term effects of hypertension and related cardiovascular outcomes.
LifeLeaf is unique because it does not require needles, cuffs, or calibration as current solutions do. It is 70% more cost-effective over a 12-month period and supports effortless daily use, which is critical for maintaining a high degree of patient adherence and delivering preventive insights.
'The results presented at ADA this year show that LifeLeaf has the potential to provide accurate data, without invasiveness or complexity,' said Dr. Timothy S. Bailey of Headlands Research – AMCR Clinic, Escondido, CA, and Dr. Jerome S. Fischer of MDRequest, San Antonio, TX. 'This kind of non-invasive monitoring is uniquely poised to improve patient adherence and enable earlier detection – two critical factors in managing chronic conditions.'
Upcoming Global Clinical Trials
LifePlus is now initiating additional longitudinal outcome studies for LifeLeaf across Asia, Europe, Middle East and North America, focusing on prediabetic and hypertensive populations. The goal: to prove that continuous, passive monitoring can lead to earlier interventions and measurable reductions in chronic disease incidence.
'We're incredibly encouraged by the clinical validation at world-class institutions like Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic,' said Dr. Alodeep Sanyal, co-founder and CEO of LifePlus. 'It confirms what we have believed from the beginning: that non-invasive, AI-powered monitoring can be reliable and scalable. The growing global interest from healthcare providers, partners and investors reaffirms that we are at the forefront of a major shift in how we manage and prevent chronic disease.'
With global spending on diabetes and cardiovascular care projected to exceed $1.5 trillion annually by 2030, the market is primed for solutions that go beyond reactive treatment. LifeLeaf is the first clinically validated solution of its kind in this space, targeting a $100B+ total addressable market.

Terra Firma Energy Welcome UK Government Consultation on Hydrogen Blending into Great Britains Gas Transmission Network
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--At Terra Firma Energy, we welcome the UK Government's consultation into the blending of Hydrogen into Britain's Gas Transmission Network as a timely and positive step forward for both the UK's decarbonisation goals and the future of flexible power generation. All our projects are engineered to be hydrogen-ready from the outset, ensuring long-term operational flexibility and resilience in a rapidly evolving energy landscape. By anticipating changes in fuel supply and regulatory frameworks, we have future-proofed our generation assets to adapt quickly to low-carbon solutions like hydrogen blending. The ability to support hydrogen integration, even at early-stage blend levels, reinforces our commitment to sustainable innovation and positions our portfolio to contribute meaningfully to a net zero grid. Terra Firma Energy welcome UK Government Consultation on Hydrogen Blending into Great Britains Gas Transmission Network. Share The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) has launched a new consultation exploring the potential for blending low-carbon hydrogen into Great Britain's gas transmission network. Following previous consultations on hydrogen blending into local distribution networks, the government is now seeking views on whether introducing hydrogen at the transmission level - the high-pressure National Transmission System (NTS) - could offer strategic and economic value. A Step Toward Net Zero Hydrogen is seen as a key player in the UK's push to reach net zero emissions by 2050. Blending low-carbon hydrogen with natural gas could offer a transitional path, supporting early-stage hydrogen production while reducing the carbon intensity of the existing gas network. DESNZ is currently evaluating whether to enable blending of up to 2% hydrogen by volume into the NTS. This small percentage could act as an 'off-taker of last resort' for hydrogen producers, providing a backup market when dedicated customers are not available. Balancing Innovation with Risk The consultation outlines both the potential benefits and challenges. While hydrogen blending could support the growth of the hydrogen economy and help manage electricity system constraints, it also raises concerns for industrial users connected to the transmission system. Many of these users rely on stable, high-quality gas supplies, and even a 2% hydrogen blend could affect equipment performance, increase costs, or require infrastructure upgrades. Terra Firma Energy have been proactive in ensuring all our projects have been built utilising hydrogen ready generation sets that can accommodate a 20% blend of hydrogen into the network. Studies cited in the consultation show that most transmission-connected users could technically handle a 2% blend with minimal changes, though feasibility studies and equipment modifications may still be necessary. At higher blends (5% or 20%), the risks and costs escalate significantly. Cross-Border Considerations The UK's ability to blend hydrogen is also influenced by developments in the EU. Under the EU Hydrogen and Decarbonised Gas Market Package, Member States can blend up to 2% hydrogen by volume, but are not required to do so. This creates potential interoperability issues with the UK's gas inter-connectors to Ireland, Belgium, and the Netherlands - especially if hydrogen blends exceed that threshold.

Chris Meloni's Family Members Mistook Early Lyme Disease Signs for This Common Bug
It took years of testing, doctors visits, and debilitating symptoms before Chris Meloni and his family knew one of their loved ones was living with Lyme disease. The Law & Order: Organized Crime star and father of two has since been very vocal about his family's experience with the illness, including how early signs of Lyme disease presented as something as common as a stomach bug. Chris Meloni's family members thought Lyme disease signs were stomach flu symptoms In a 2024 interview with Meloni opened up about how his family initially mistook Lyme disease symptoms for a common illness. "We first thought we were dealing with the stomach flu," Meloni said, explaining that symptoms included brain fog, fatigue, joint pain, migraines, and depression, while antibiotics only briefly helped. "Before you know it, you're dealing with a completely debilitated human being." In search of answers, Meloni told that his loved one saw a variety of specialists and underwent many tests before they were ultimately diagnosed with Lyme disease, a bacterial infection most commonly transmitted to humans by tick bites, the Mayo Clinic explains. Signs and symptoms of Lyme disease typically include fever, headache, fatigue, and a skin rash, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Lyme disease is "almost always readily cured" with antibiotics early on, according to the American Lyme Disease Foundation, but, without treatment, the infection could potentially spread to the joints and nervous system. "If Lyme disease is part of your life, your life will literally never be the same," Meloni told RELATED: The Most Intense Fights Between Benson & Stabler on Law & Order: SVU In a 2023 interview with People, Meloni shared that it took his family years to get answers. 'My family was affected by this disease in a very dramatic way," he told the magazine. "And it was a whole big learning curve because it took us two years to get the correct diagnoses. It was pretty heartbreaking." Once they finally figured out what they were dealing with, Meloni added that he was surprised by the lack of information and awareness there is about the disease. 'It presents itself as any number of things,' Meloni told People. 'In my family's case, we thought we were dealing with a stomach flu and then later it turned into relentless migraines and then we were dealing with arthritis. It's a laundry list of horror show potentialities, and I was surprised how little and poor the information was being given out to the public.' Chris Meloni is a vocal advocate for Lyme disease awareness and research Inspired by his family's firsthand experience, Meloni has since become a strong advocate for Lyme disease awareness and research. The actor is an ambassador for the Global Lyme Alliance, he's appeared in PSAs, and has also lobbied Congress with fellow advocates to push for more Lyme disease funding. RELATED: Chris Meloni Reveals the Key to His 28-Year Marriage with Wife Sherman Williams In October 2023, Meloni and his wife, Sherman Williams, attended a gala for the Global Lyme Alliance, where he took the stage to deliver an impactful speech. In an Instagram post following the event, which raised over $1.6 million, Meloni commended "all the hard work EVERYONE in this community has done, and the continued commitment everyone has dedicated themselves" to raise awareness.
