The Statnews article I linked is a good example of reporting for this kind of very early result. It does clearly mention that this is at an early stage and that no clinical data has been collected yet. I think this is certainly interesting, it's just so tiring to see this kind of stuff turn up again and again in extremely misleading articles in mainstream media.

Though I think it would have been better to wait until peer review before making a press release. This is not a paper that has immediate clinical applications, and the peer review might still turn up some problems with the paper.
