A 'weak spot' discovered that potentially makes multi-drug resistant tumors vulnerable Posted: 22 Jul 2022 09:33 AM PDT Researchers have discovered one of the causes of the multi-drug resistance of some tumors, and a potential strategy to overcome it. This new 'weak spot' can be exploited using existing drugs that kill tumor cells by activating their stress responses. |
COVID-19 vaccine does not negatively affect placental health, study finds Posted: 22 Jul 2022 09:32 AM PDT Vaccination against COVID-19 had no impact on the health of placentas in pregnant women, according to new research. The findings further emphasize the safety of vaccination during pregnancy for babies and pregnant women, the investigators note. |
Posted: 21 Jul 2022 05:49 PM PDT This monoclonal antibody cocktail is deliverable via a nasal dose, and it is also effective against SARS, MERS and several coronavirus cold viruses. The antibodies are engineered for long-acting effectiveness, potentially lasting a year or more when used. |
New clinical symptoms identified in largest international study series of confirmed monkeypox cases Posted: 21 Jul 2022 05:49 PM PDT An international collaboration of clinicians has identified new clinical symptoms in people infected with monkeypox in the largest case study series to date. Their findings will improve future diagnosis, help to slow the spread of infection and help the international community prioritise the limited global supply of monkeypox vaccines and treatments to communities most at risk. |
Posted: 21 Jul 2022 05:48 PM PDT For a glimpse into the future of SARS-CoV-2 immunity, scientists are investigating how the immune system builds its defenses against common cold coronaviruses (CCCs). |
Discovering new treatments for tuberculosis Posted: 21 Jul 2022 11:15 AM PDT Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, remains the leading cause of infectious disease worldwide, affecting approximately a quarter of the globe's population. Treatment of infections is problematic due to the emergence of drug-resistant strains; however, an expert in antibiotic resistance is leading research on new potential therapeutic treatments for the disease. |
AI speeds sepsis detection to prevent hundreds of deaths Posted: 21 Jul 2022 10:20 AM PDT Patients are 20% less likely to die of sepsis because a new AI system catches symptoms hours earlier than traditional methods, an extensive hospital study demonstrates. The system scours medical records and clinical notes to identify patients at risk of life-threatening complications. |
Quantum digits unlock more computational power with fewer quantum particles Posted: 21 Jul 2022 10:20 AM PDT For decades computers have been synonymous with binary information -- zeros and ones. Now a team has realized a quantum computer that breaks out of this paradigm and unlocks additional computational resources, hidden in almost all of today's quantum devices. |
