Small-molecule A485 mobilizes white blood cells on demand

White blood cells, or leukocytes, are the body’s first and second lines of defense against foreign organisms and particles. However, few drugs target these cells’ production and movement for clinically useful purposes. A new study published in the journal Immunity explores the signaling molecule landscape to identify potentially druggable targets for leukocyte migration into the […]

New review aims to help clinicians diagnose and manage PCOS

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is an increasingly common diagnosis among women in their reproductive years. Not only is it associated with adverse reproductive outcomes, but it also underlies a host of chronic metabolic conditions that affect long-term health. A recent review article in CMAJ explores the state of current knowledge on the diagnosis and treatment […]

The association between handgrip strength and functional outcomes in long COVID-19

In a recent longitudinal study published in Scientific Reports, researchers from Brazil investigated the potential association between dynapenia (loss of muscle strength and power) with functional outcomes in patients with long coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). They found that in patients with long COVID, low handgrip strength (HGS) is associated with worse functional outcomes. They further […]

Does closing the toilet lid before flushing prevent viral contamination?

Toilet flushes are known to produce aerosols, which could carry pathogenic viruses to various surfaces in the restroom. A new study in the American Journal of Infection Control examines the impact of closing the toilet lid before flushing on the odds of cross-contamination of other surfaces. Study: Impacts of lid closure during toilet flushing and […]

Study shows Omicron variants evade immune system like predecessors, suggesting key evolutionary trait in SARS-CoV-2

In a recent study in Nature Microbiology, researchers compared severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron variant of concern (VOC) replication in human cell lines and primary airway cultures and measured host responses to infection. Study: Evolution of enhanced innate immune suppression by SARS-CoV-2 Omicron subvariants. Image Credit: Naeblys/Shutterstock.comBackground SARS-CoV-2 evolution has led to […]

addressing N-AIDS for better outcomes

In a recent review published in the journal BMC Global and Public Health, researchers explored the current evidence on nutritionally acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (N-AIDS). They discussed why N-AIDS needs to be recognized as a crucial determinant and comorbidity among tuberculosis (TB) patients across the globe. They have emphasized the importance of addressing nutrition with a […]

Traditional CBT as effective as exposure therapy for fibromyalgia

There does not appear to be any profound differences between so-called exposure-based CBT and traditional CBT in the treatment of fibromyalgia, according to a study led by researchers at Karolinska Institutet. Both forms of treatment produced a significant reduction in symptoms in people affected by the disease. The study is one of the largest to […]

Dietary shifts to less processed foods significantly lower triglycerides in women

During reproductive age, poor nutrition quality increases obesity rates and, as a result, the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes. Dyslipidemia also impacts health, particularly among women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). In pregnant women, elevated triglycerides increase the risk of gestational diabetes, which can lead to type 2 diabetes and CVD […]
