What is admiralneuro?

admiralneuro is widening from Alzheimer's PET into general nervous-system findings.

The package launched in September 2025 with amyloid and tau PET analysis for Alzheimer's studies — centiloid computation, five neuro datasets, and ADAPET/ADTPET template programs. The February 2026 update is tagged twice on the same day, 0.2.0 and 0.2.1 carrying the same notes, and adds olfactory testing plus a nervous-system findings template.

What is OpenCTI?

OpenCTI spends a release unblocking queues and hardening upserts

7.260817.0 is a fix release. The most consequential item is malformed STIX messages nacking forever and blocking worker queues indefinitely — a stall in the ingestion path rather than a display bug. Alongside it: upsert clearing an existing createdBy when incoming confidence is higher, draft upserts crashing on existing attack patterns, OTP handling in the stream middleware, and case template relation authorization. Score fields were added to threat actor groups, intrusion sets and malware.

admiralneuro is widening from Alzheimer's PET into general nervous-system findings.

◆ Current state

The package launched in September 2025 with amyloid and tau PET analysis for Alzheimer's studies — centiloid computation, five neuro datasets, and ADAPET/ADTPET template programs. The February 2026 update is tagged twice on the same day, 0.2.0 and 0.2.1 carrying the same notes, and adds olfactory testing plus a nervous-system findings template.

◆ Where it's heading

Development is moving from one disease area toward a general neuro toolkit: UPSIT smell-identification percentiles now sit alongside PET quantitation, and the ADNV template covers nervous-system findings broadly rather than PET specifically. Internal SDTM test data was retired in favour of pharmaversesdtm, tying the package more tightly to the shared pharmaverse data layer.

◆ Prediction

More assessment-specific compute functions on the UPSIT pattern are the obvious next step, each arriving with a vignette and a template program alongside it.

OpenCTI spends a release unblocking queues and hardening upserts

◆ Current state

7.260817.0 is a fix release. The most consequential item is malformed STIX messages nacking forever and blocking worker queues indefinitely — a stall in the ingestion path rather than a display bug. Alongside it: upsert clearing an existing createdBy when incoming confidence is higher, draft upserts crashing on existing attack patterns, OTP handling in the stream middleware, and case template relation authorization. Score fields were added to threat actor groups, intrusion sets and malware.

◆ Where it's heading

The platform's feature energy went into the connector catalog and integrations rework in July, and the releases since have been consolidating: mass operations on relation times, shareable saved searches, and now a pass over ingestion robustness. Adding score to more entity types continues the slow enrichment of the data model that runs underneath the feature work.

◆ Prediction

Given score arriving on three entity types in one release, expect it to keep spreading across the data model, and the queue-blocking class of bug to draw more worker-side hardening.
