The American Association of Neuromuscular & Electrodiagnostic Medicine (AANEM) proudly announces Dr. Ghazala Hayat as the 2024 Distinguished Physician Award recipient for her outstanding work and achievements focused on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and neuromuscular disorders (NMDs), particularly in regard to teaching and involvement with the AANEM.
Los niños que nacen con ciertos defectos cardíacos se someten a un implante de shunt para mejorar el flujo sanguíneo. El shunt debe cambiarse a medida que el cuerpo crece. Los investigadores informan que un nuevo shunt expandible que reacciona a la luz podría reducir el número de cirugías a las que se someten estos niños. Presentarán sus resultados en la ACS Fall 2024.
En el calor abrasador del verano, cualquier persona que pase tiempo afuera podría beneficiarse de un tejido refrigerante. Pero ahora, los investigadores han innovado con un revestimiento de microescala a base de tiza que enfría el aire debajo del tejido tratado hasta 13 grados Celsius. Presentarán sus resultados en la ACS Fall 2024.
Children born with certain heart defects receive a shunt implant to improve blood flow. The shunt must be replaced as their bodies grow. Researchers say a new light-reactive expandable shunt could cut the number of surgeries these children receive. They will present their results at ACS Fall 2024.
Heart failure is especially fatal for people without access to medical facilities. A research team aims to bring heart failure screening from the lab to the home with a biosensor that uses a drop of saliva to screen for biomarkers of the disease. They will present their results at ACS Fall 2024.
La inteligencia artificial (IA) ha explotado en popularidad, pero al igual que un ser humano, es difícil leer la mente de la IA. La IA explicable (XAI), un subconjunto de la tecnología, podría ayudarnos a hacer justamente eso justificando las decisiones de un modelo.
Artificial intelligence (AI) has exploded in popularity, but it’s hard to know what’s going on inside. Explainable AI (XAI) gives justification for an AI model’s decisions, and now, researchers are using it to make better antibiotics. They will present their results at ACS Fall 2024.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen may be a simple way to reduce the risk of postoperative delirium. Combining two common blood tests may help doctors identify pregnant women who are at higher risk for life-threatening preeclampsia.
Preterm birth accounts for nearly a quarter of mortality in babies with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), according to a new study from Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.The study, led by Kuan-Chi Lai, MD, MPH, found that, at a population level, 24% of mortality in babies with CDH can be attributed to being born premature.
DIABETES & COGNITIVE DECLINE - Learn How to Reduce Your Risk
Neonatal shock is an acute and potentially life-threatening condition for babies. To treat it, physicians must determine whether systolic or diastolic dysfunction—or both—is causing a lack of oxygen to the baby’s organs.But that’s not always a simple task.
The team led by Dr. Shin of KERI has proposed a novel approach which is to suppress appetite by stimulating cerebral cortex electrically through scalp.
Today at ADLM 2024 (formerly the AACC Annual Scientific Meeting & Clinical Lab Expo), researchers will present data on a novel test that predicts whether Alzheimer’s patients are genetically predisposed to side effects from anti-amyloid drugs, a promising new class of Alzheimer’s therapeutics.
Exciting research at the frontier of artificial intelligence and data science in laboratory medicine was presented today at ADLM 2024 (formerly the AACC Annual Scientific Meeting & Clinical Lab Expo).
A head-to-head comparison of six commercially available blood tests for Alzheimer’s disease led by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis reveals that two are accurate enough to replace brain scans and spinal taps in some patients with cognitive impairments.
Breaking research shows that rates of cannabis use during pregnancy are far higher than previously thought, a finding that could improve efforts to identify pregnant cannabis users and inform them of potential risks.
In a new study, researchers have demonstrated that there is an insufficient basis for incorporating race in prenatal screening for birth defects. In a second, separate study, researchers have found that HIV-exposed uninfected children are at higher risk for health problems compared to uninfected, unexposed children.
At ADLM 2024 (formerly the AACC Annual Scientific Meeting & Clinical Lab Expo) in Chicago, more than 300 experts will present cutting-edge research and technology that will shape the future of laboratory medicine and improve patient care.
The American Society of Retina Specialists is honoring Richard B. Rosen, MD, ScD (hon), FACS, FASRS, FARVO, CRA, the Belinda Bingham Pierce and Gerald G. Pierce Distinguished Professor of Ophthalmology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, with the prestigious Founders Award for 2024.
