Analyzing longitudinal genomic surveillance of carriage intensive care unit
AI SummaryHospital staff work to prevent patients from acquiring infections while in the hospital, but infections still occur. A study suggests that the main cause of the bacterium Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) infections may be the characteristics of the patients themselves rather than hospital transmission. The study analyzed fecal samples from ICU patients and found… Continue reading Analyzing longitudinal genomic surveillance of carriage intensive care unit
Stem cell therapy shows promise in treating COVID-19 complications
AI SummaryA systematic review and meta-analysis conducted by researchers at the University of São Paulo (USP) in Brazil, in partnership with colleagues in Germany and the United States, found that the use of cell therapy in COVID-19 patients can reduce the risk of death from the disease by 60%. The review covered 195 clinical trials… Continue reading Stem cell therapy shows promise in treating COVID-19 complications
New immunoregulatory protein linked to autoimmune disease
AI SummaryResearchers at MedUni Vienna have discovered a protein called Rinl that may be associated with the development of autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis. Rinl, found in T cells, could be a target for new immunomodulatory therapies. The function of Rinl in the immune system has been deciphered, with its role in controlling the development… Continue reading New immunoregulatory protein linked to autoimmune disease
Possible new treatment for triple-negative breast cancer
AI SummaryScientists have discovered a new method to combat aggressive breast cancer by silencing the ACSS2 gene, potentially improving existing treatments for patients.Scientists demonstrate a double-acting mechanism for fighting a particularly aggressive, difficult-to-treat form of breast cancer. The research shows how silencing a certain gene, ACSS2, may improve existing treatments for patients.
