Rapid Medical™ Completes Enrollment in DISTALS Trial Evaluating TIGERTRIEVER 13™ for Distal Vessel Occlusions9.12.2025 17:47:00 EET | Press release
Rapid Medical™, a leading developer of active endovascular devices, announces the completion of patient enrollment in the DISTALS Trial, a multicenter randomized study assessing the TIGERTRIEVER 13™ device in patients with distal medium vessel occlusions (DMVO) in acute ischemic stroke. “DMVO strokes represent up to 40% of ischemic strokes and can cause significant disability, yet their treatment has remained uncertain.

Completing enrollment is a major step toward evidence that can truly advance care for these patients.” The TIGER 13 is purpose-built for distal interventions.

Suzano Launches Nature Strategy and Reinforces the Strategic Importance of Biodiversity Conservation to the Business9.12.2025 17:41:00 EET | Press release
Suzano, the world’s largest pulp producer, has launched its Nature Strategy, reaffirming the company's commitment to biodiversity and how it guides decision-making within the business. Suzano's operations depend directly on nature, and the company recognizes that its longevity and ability to innovate are intrinsically linked to the health of ecosystems. Therefore, nature occupies a significant strategic role in the business’ vision. The science-led Nature Strategy, developed in collaboration with IUCN, is guided by the mitigation hierarchy: avoid, reduce, restore and transform. This approach enables the prevention of impacts, the minimization of risks, and the promotion of ecosystem regeneration. With support from IUCN, Suzano has pioneered the use of the STAR metric – a tool that enables the company to map sensitive areas within the territories where it operates, identify endangered species, and set priority actions required to reduce their risk of extinction.
