Can the keto diet help beat the flu?

Source: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/327186.php Results of a new study in mice suggest that the body may be able to defeat the influenza virus if a person has the right sort of diet — a ketogenic, or keto, diet. Infection with the influenza virus, better known as the flu, has accounted for 12,000–61,000Trusted Source deaths every year since 2010 in the United States, with an annual economic burden of $87.1 billionTrusted Source. The introduction of the flu vaccine has greatly improved infection and morbidity rates. However, there is still currently no cure for the illness. Healthcare professionals and scientists alike are continuing the search for novel therapeutics to combat the flu, yet the key may lie within the body’s own immune system. Moreover, it may be activated by the keto diet. Following the keto diet involves eating foods that are high in fat and low in carbohydrates. Meals tend to consist of ...

Study outlines concerns around natural psychoactive substances

Source : https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/327192.php#1 Medical news today New research finds that over a period of 17 years, people in the United States increased their use of natural psychoactive substances, believing them to be safe. This has led to many reports of adverse symptoms in adults and children alike.People have been using natural psychoactive substances for hundreds or even thousands, of years in traditional medicine and as a part of spiritual practices. Because these substances come from sources such as plants and mushrooms, many people believe them to be safe to use.However, because they interfere with biological processes in the central nervous system, they can be a threat to human health. These interferences can also cause euphoria and altered states of consciousness. The Center for Injury Research and Policy at the Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, OH, collaborated with the Ohio State University College of Medicine, also in Columbus, to ...

Fasenra Granted US Orphan Drug Designation for Eosinophilic Oesophagitis

AstraZeneca today announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) to Fasenra (benralizumab) for the treatment of eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE). EoE is a rare, chronic, inflammatory disease that occurs when eosinophils, a type of white blood cell, accumulate in the oesophagus causing injury and inflammation. The FDA grants ODD status to medicines and potential new medicines intended for the treatment, diagnosis or prevention of rare diseases or disorders that affect fewer than 200,000 people in the US. About Fasenra Fasenra (benralizumab) is a monoclonal antibody that binds directly to the IL-5 receptor alpha on eosinophils and attracts natural killer cells to induce rapid and near-complete depletion of eosinophils via apoptosis (programmed cell death). Fasenra is AstraZeneca’s first respiratory biologic, now approved as an add-on maintenance treatment in severe eosinophilic asthma in the US, EU, Japan and other countries, with further regulatory reviews ongoing. In June 2019, the European Medicines ...

Ebola ‘no longer incurable’

By Anna Smith A new study in the BMJ has identified two new drugs, mAb114 and REGN-EB3, that can dramatically cut mortality from Ebola, and both are being immediately offered to all patients in an effort to control the Democratic Republic of Congo’s (DRC) worst-ever outbreak. The trial initially compared four potential treatments proposed by four different companies: ZMapp, remdesivir, mAb114, and REGN-EB3, and preliminary data convinced the trial’s monitoring board to stop the study and randomize all remaining patients to either mAb114 or REGN-EB3. Data from the first 499 patients showed that REGN-EB3 had met early stopping criteria, and mAb114 was ‘not far behind’. Among all patients who took the drugs, those treated with REGN-EB3 had a mortality rate of 29%, while those who got mAb-114 had a mortality rate of 34%. Both drugs are monoclonal antibodies, proteins that bind to other proteins on the outer shell of the Ebola ...

Proof-of-concept system uses smart speakers to catch signs of cardiac arrest

Author: Dave Muoio In an effort to tackle in-home cardiac arrest, University of Washington researchers have devised a novel contactless system that uses smartphones or voice-based personal assistants to identify telltale breathing patterns that accompany an attack. The proof-of-concept strategy, described in an NPJ Digital Medicine paper published this morning, involved a supervised machine learning model called a support-vector machine that was trained for use in the bedroom, a controlled environment in which the majority of in-home cardiac arrests occur. “Sometimes reported as ‘gasping’ breaths, agonal respirations may hold potential as an audible diagnostic biomarker, particularly in unwitnessed cardiac arrests that occur in a private residence, the location of [two-thirds] of all [out-of-hospital cardiac arrests],” the researchers wrote. “The widespread adoption of smartphones and smart speakers (projected to be in 75% of US households by 2020) presents a unique opportunity to identify this audible biomarker and connect unwitnessed ...

WiFi may interact with signaling pathways in the brain, causing irreversible damage

A recent study reviewed evidence from 23 controlled scientific studies which investigated the health effects of WiFi on animals, human cell lines, and humans to determine once and for all, whether WiFi has a detrimental effect on human health.

World Immunization Week 2019

Theme: #VaccinesWork World Immunization Week – celebrated in the last week of April – aims to promote the use of vaccines to protect people of all ages against disease. Immunization saves millions of lives every year and is widely recognized as one of the world’s most successful and cost-effective health interventions. Yet, there are still nearly 20 million unvaccinated and under-vaccinated children in the world today. The theme this year is Protected Together: Vaccines Work!, and the campaign will celebrate Vaccine Heroes from around the world – from parents and community members to health workers and innovators – who help ensure we are all protected through the power of vaccines. Vast progress but fragile gains In 2017, the number of children immunized – 116.2 million – was the highest ever reported. Since 2010, 113 countries have introduced new vaccines, and more than 20 million additional children have been vaccinated. But despite gains, all ...

Protein C Deficiency

One of the main functions of protein C is to prevent blood clotting by inactivating proteins that encourage blood clotting. Deficiencies in protein C are associated with higher risks of developing blood clots known as deep vein thrombosis.
