<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Calidi Biotherapeutics Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLDI#NYSE">CLDI</a>) ("Calidi"), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing a new generation of targeted antitumor virotherapies, presented data at the International Oncolytic Virotherapy Conference (IOVC) and the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Annual Meeting to support the targeted capabilities of its proprietary RTNova&#x2122; systemic enveloped virotherapy technology. This data supports the potential use of RTNova to target every metastatic site in multiple oncology indications including metastatic lung cancer.
RTNova is uniquely designed to overcome key challenges in systemic virotherapy, including rapid immune clearance and limited therapeutic targeting. By incorporating enveloped technology into its tumor-selective vaccinia virus platform, RTNova now has the potential to target multiple metastatic tumor sites, killing and transforming, not one, but potentially all tumor microenvironments in the body. Calidi's enveloped virotherapies demonstrated robust therapeutic potential as a monotherapy and as a viral vector, allowing future expansion of functionality to support delivery of therapeutic gene or medicine payloads into all tumor sites.

Lipocine Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LPCN#NASDAQ">LPCN</a>), a biopharmaceutical company leveraging its proprietary technology platform to augment therapeutics through effective oral delivery, today announced the publication and discussion of a manuscript "Oral LPCN 1148 Improves Sarcopenia and Hepatic Encephalopathy in Male Patients with Cirrhosis: a randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 2 trial" in the journal Hepatology and discussion at The Liver Meeting (AASLD) 2024 Editor's Cut: Clinical Study Session held on November 16, 2024. LPCN 1148 is targeted to be a "First in Class" product candidate with a novel mechanism of action for overt hepatic encephalopathy and sarcopenia indications. A copy of the publication can be accessed <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4304805-1&amp;h=1195872298&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fjournals.lww.com%2Fhep%2Fabstract%2F9900%2Foral_lpcn_1148_improves_sarcopenia_and_hepatic.1074.aspx&amp;a=here">here</a>.
The publication features the results from a Phase 2 proof-of-concept clinical trial (LPCN 1148-21-001) that evaluated LPCN 1148 in men with cirrhosis and sarcopenia awaiting liver transplantation. The trial was conducted in two stages. Stage 1 was double blind, placebo-controlled with participants randomized 1:1, to receive either oral LPCN 1148 or placebo. This was followed by Stage 2, a 28-week single-arm open label extension. The publication reports the analyses from the Stage 1 readout.
The results at 24 weeks showed that LPCN 1148 therapy resulted in a significant improvement in sarcopenia when compared with placebo. Furthermore, despite most participants already on background therapies for HE, participants receiving LPCN 1148 also experienced significantly fewer episodes of overt hepatic&nbsp;encephalopathy (OHE) compared to those on placebo. Additional beneficial effects of LPCN 1148, including improved muscle quality, hemoglobin, and patient reported symptom improvement are also covered in the manuscript.
The publication was discussed at The Liver Meeting during 'The Editors Cut: Clinical Studies' session. This session critically discusses the most notable, influential, cutting edge, game changing clinical research papers published during the past year.

<li>Published in the Journal of Clinical Anesthesia, results from the two-phase, 250 patient pilot study show clinicians found a majority (82%) of the alarms from the wireless and wearable Portrait Mobile monitoring solution to be informative or useful to optimize patient care in medical-surgical units.1</li>
<li>Study findings suggest that continuous monitoring helps provide critical information to clinicians, enabling them to intervene effectively before a patient deteriorates.</li>
<li>Undetected patient deterioration, particularly post-surgery, can lead to hazardous yet preventable consequences, with 30-day mortality after surgery representing the third leading cause of death globally.2</li>

GE HealthCare (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GEHC#NASDAQ">GEHC</a>) today announced the publication of data from a two-phase pilot study conducted with Cleveland Clinic in the peer-reviewed <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sciencedirect.com%2Fscience%2Farticle%2Fpii%2FS0952818024002903%3Fvia%253Dihub&amp;esheet=54153539&amp;newsitemid=20241118649936&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Journal+of+Clinical+Anesthesia&amp;index=1&amp;md5=3882fc8ec1955dd12edab44322fe51f9">Journal of Clinical Anesthesia</a>, highlighting performance of the wireless and wearable Portrait&#x2122; Mobile monitoring solution in the post-surgical ward environment.
With published alarm rates from critical care and cardiac telemetry units that number in the hundreds per bed per day, healthcare systems may be concerned with alarm management in lower acuity settings.3,4 The results from this study highlight the potential of the wireless and wearable Portrait Mobile monitoring solution to provide meaningful alarms for clinicians and help encourage clinical intervention while minimizing alarm fatigue.1
The COSMOS (Continuous Ward Monitoring with the GE HealthCare Portrait Mobile Monitoring Solution) pilot study compares continuous monitoring with Portrait Mobile to routine intermittent vital signs assessment only. Key findings include:
<ul>
<li>In the Portrait Mobile group, there was an average of less than three alarms per patient per day.</li>
<li>Clinicians found a majority (82%) of the Portrait Mobile alarms to be informative or useful.</li>
<li>Portrait Mobile alarms informed clinical decisions, and the most common nursing intervention was theinitiation of oxygen therapy or increase in the concentration of oxygen administered to a patient. Clinicians were prompted to supplement oxygen in about 60% more patients assigned to the Portrait Mobile group compared to patients with intermittent monitoring only (49 vs. 33, respectively).
<ul>
<li>In the Portrait Mobile group, continuous monitoring and alerts led to clinical interventions that reduced vital sign abnormalities by approximately 25%.</li>
</ul>
