Artificial Intelligence Could Improve IVF Outcomes

A study conducted in 2017 forecasted that artificial intelligence (AI) could extensively improve health-care results by 30–40%. AiVF, an Israeli ML company, has suggested that artificial intelligence bears the potential to grow the success rate of IVF by almost three times when compared to conventional methods. It should be noted, however, that pregnancy is dependent on other factors, such as age. IVF, or in vitro-fertilization, is a series of procedures that involves the extraction of mature ova from a woman’s body, which are then fertilized in a lab setting with sperm in a liquid. The fertilized ovum is then implanted…

Tired of Dairy? Tel Aviv Researchers May Have Just What You Need, Milk From Yeast!

A researcher from Tel Aviv University has developed a way to produce dairy products from yeast. Professor Tamir Tuller from the university’s Department of Biomedical Engineering is the researcher behind this innovative development. Tuller worked together with Dr. Eyal Iffergan, a food technology entrepreneur, to set up Imagindairy, a start-up company that plans to make cow’s milk using yeast. This development comes at a time when researchers are working on finding substitutes for milk because dairy farming damages not only the environment but also human health. Tuller explained that Imagindairy’s objective was to create milk that contained all the nutritional…

Magnetic Nanoparticles May Be Used to Improve Cancer Treatment in the Near Future

A team of researchers from the University College London has demonstrated how small magnetic nanoparticles can be used to improve cancer treatment. Those nanoparticles can transport chemo drugs to cancer cells while also generating a minimal heating effect once stimulated through the use of an alternating external magnetic field. The combination of chemotherapy and particle-mediated heat treatment brings about synergistic effects in the elimination of cancer cells. This proposes that the technology may be a useful tool in the fight against cancer. The nanoparticles are made from iron oxide, which make them magnetic. These particles can be stimulated to generate…

Ultrasound, Nanodroplets to Be Used in Eliminating Difficult Blood Clots

Every year, anywhere from 300,000 to 600,000 individuals are affected by deep vein thromboses in the United States. One of the major obstacles of vascular surgery has been penetrating extensive and compacted blood clots. This is mainly because the retracted clots are of low porosity and high density. While there are tools such as catheter-based devices that have been created for that specific purpose and are being used today, the challenge still presents itself in patients with plaques that are too difficult to penetrate, even for the best devices in existence. However, there may be an alternative as researchers from…

Cooling Vests May Be Solution to PPE Discomfort for COVID-19 Healthcare Personnel

A team of scientists from the Radboud University Medical Center have tested out cooling vests that were initially designed for elite athletes on nursing staff who work long shifts in coronavirus wards wearing personal protective equipment (PPE). While PPE is essential, it can cause discomfort. The majority of the staff in the facility reported that they felt more comfortable with the vest on because it combats heat stress. The vest is now part of the center’s standard equipment. PPE’s are important as they help keep healthcare personnel, who are on the frontline of duty, safe during the coronavirus pandemic. However,…
