With the Lumipulse test, there is a new option that can typically be completed the same day and can give doctors the same information regarding brain amyloid status, without the radiation risk, to help determine if a patient’s cognitive impairment is due to Alzheimer’s disease.
The single lead ECG tracing gains significance as a standard ECG uses 12 electrode leads strategically placed on a person’s chest, arms and legs to create a tracing used to evaluate the heart’s electrical signals. A previous Mayo research showed that the 12-lead ECG and AI algorithm can identify a weak heart pump. However, this information is useful to clinicians in an office setting.
While the specific causes of early onset colorectal cancer remain elusive, data suggest that diets with high intake of red and processed meat, as well as refined grains and processed sugar can alter gut microbial composition, resulting in chronic inflammation, increased rates of obesity and a higher risk of colorectal cancer.
Mayo Clinic researchers found plasma neurofilament light levels were elevated in all types of frontotemporal dementia, and in people who had mutations but hadn’t shown symptoms yet.
The latest study by Mayo Clinic researchers suggests CAR-T cells can deliver the oncolytic virus to the tumour. Then the virus can infiltrate tumour cells, replicate to bust the cells open, and stimulate a potent immune response.
The fastest way to recover is to take things slow and easy at first, then try to gradually increase your activities.
Medical experts are of the view that kidney swap transplant procedure seems one of the best solutions to India’s critical shortage of compatible kidneys for patients suffering from kidney failures.
The request includes $3.7 billion in budget authority – including an increase of $356 million, and $3 billion in user fees – an increase of $153 million. It also includes $1.6 billion in mandatory funding to support the FDA’s ability to prepare for future pandemics.
The condition of long Covid, which is defined as persisting symptoms including fatigue, chest pain, brain fog, heart problems, lungs and respiratory issues persisting beyond three months after the virus infection, has been widely reported among Covid survivors from across the world.
Xuanbai Chengqi decoction or XBCQ, a Chinese remedy used to treat COPD, was found in a mice model study that it potentially changes the gut microbiome to modulate immune cells, improve lung function and reduce lung inflammation.
