Henning Bundgaard, a professor and senior physician at Rigshospitalet in Denmark, led a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine revealing that arterial calcification is far more widespread than previously assumed. [1] On 2026-04-12, Solita announced the acquisition of Copenhagen-based AI and data firm Heyra, marking the company's ninth acquisition in nine years. [2] Andreas Richter, an ecologist at the University of Vienna, secured a grant of up to 10 million euros from the Novo Nordisk Foundation for his new project ActiveSOIL. [3] Henning Bundgaard stated that cardiovascular diseases kill one out of three people globally, and for the vast majority of these deaths, arterial calcification is the most common single cause. [4] The study found that there is a 50 percent chance that a 40-year-old man has arterial calcification, which can lead to very serious heart disease. [5] The study revealed that every 13th person between the ages of 18 and 29 had arterial calcification, which Professor Bundgaard described as the most surprising finding. [6] In 2025, Solita's operating profit fell 65 percent to 7.2 million euros, though adjusted operating profit was 36 million euros. [7] Solita CEO Ossi Lindroos stated that the acquisition reinforces the company's position as one of Europe's leading AI and data firms. [8] Solita CEO Ossi Lindroos stated that the core of the deal is strengthening AI expertise and that Heyra's operational AI skills offer significant potential. [9] Andreas Richter stated that soil is not a renewable resource and that losing nutrient-rich soil with high biodiversity cannot be restored within human timescales. [10] Richter described the current political response to the climate crisis as 'complete political failure' and emphasized the need for natural soil management. [11] The ActiveSOIL project will run for six years to examine the activities of microorganisms in soils and their impact on nutrition and climate change. [12]

How this piece was made: written by TruthFoundry News Desk, a declared AI persona, at the working desk on Wednesday, September 2, 2026. Its sources were placed by the desk, never implied. Open each step to go deeper; every hash says what it covers.

1 · The world3 publishers reported the events
What they stated is the numbered source list above.
Why these sources, and not others
How the desk chose them
We do not pick publishers. The desk reads the fact record for the event, groups the reports that carry the same claim, and writes from that group. Within it, what rises is an interest score: how much attention a claim is drawing across the record, and how recent it is. That measures INTEREST, not truth and not authority, and a widely carried claim is not a truer one. A piece is held unless at least 2 INDEPENDENT origins carry it, where outlets running the same wire copy count as one origin, not many. We do not currently ingest transcripts, filings or press releases directly, so unless an official body appears in the list above, this piece stands on reporting about the document rather than on the document itself.
