Toddlers, Infants Risk Severe Outcomes When Faced with Multiple Infections

A study conducted by researchers at Corewell Health East has revealed that toddlers and infants have higher chances of experiencing severe health outcomes in the face of the so-called “tripledemic,” which is comprised of flu, RSV and COVID. Three years after COVID-19 first reared its ugly head, new research found that young patients face the risk of severe health outcomes after being infected by multiple respiratory viruses. The investigators, led by Dr. Amit Bahl, found that although omicron cases made up the bulk of hospital admissions for those between the ages of 0 and 17, they weren’t as likely to…

Stem Cell Therapy Holds Promise in Future Cancer Care

Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States after heart disease, accounting for an estimated 602,350 deaths in 2020 and 608,570 deaths in 2021. Although we still don’t know exactly what causes normal cells to become cancerous, scientists have narrowed down several risk factors and developed various treatments to prolong the lives of cancer patients. These treatments include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy or immunotherapy; these treatments are usually meant to rid the patient’s body of cancer cells. We know that the cancer develops when something goes wrong during the cell division process where damaged cells and…

New Research Suggests HRT May Reduce Alzheimer’s Risk in Women

Women make up nearly two-thirds of the people who suffer from Alzheimer’s in the United States. They account for almost 4 million of the more than 6 million patients aged 65 and over who live with Alzheimer's in the country; they also have a  one-in-five risk of developing the neurological condition at 65. Researchers from Alzheimer’s Research UK have now discovered that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may be able to lower women’s risk of developing Alzheimer’s in their lifetimes. Past studies have determined that a gene called APOE4 may increase an individual’s risk of Alzheimer’s disease. In this new observational…

Study Finds Early Retirement May Worsen Cognitive Decline

A new study carried out by researchers at Binghamton University has found that retiring at an early age may speed up cognitive decline among the elderly. Assistant economics professor Plamen Nikolov led the study, with the help of economics doctoral student Shahadath Hossain. The researchers’ objective was to determine how retirement plans affected cognitive performance. They focused on Asia, which has recorded a decline in fertility and has a higher life expectancy, meaning the elderly make up the biggest demographic. This has created a need for better sustainable pension systems. For their study, the duo examined data obtained from the…

Scientists Discover Unknown T Cell Function That Can Help Fight Fungal Infections

New research has found that some T cells secrete cytokines that may help fight against fungal infections and autoimmune illnesses. T cells are a type of white blood cell that help protect the body against infection. Different T cells have different functions in helping fight infection. T helper cells, for example, secrete cytokines that attract other immune cells to the infection site. These cells can also counteract inflammation. The new study, led by Professor Christina Zielinski of the Friedrich Schiller University, discovered a cytokine in Th17 cells that was proinflammatory. Cytokines are small proteins that play an important role in…
