A new statement from the American Heart Association recommends a much more conservative approach to treating high blood pressure in acute care.
El futuro de la curación de enfermedades puede involucrar una jeringa, una fuente de alimentación de alto voltaje y soluciones de polímeros que se unen para diseñar tejidos. En este momento, investigadores de Mayo Clinic están estudiando estos diferentes elementos utilizando un electrohilador, un dispositivo que convierte fibras bioterapéuticas en una estructura — o plataforma — para tejer bioterapéuticos regenerativos.

Though the number fell sharply to only 3 cases during the June through December 2023 multisite surveillance period compared to the previous highs, concern for its reemergence continues due to, among other things, incomplete knowledge among other groups.
Using artificial intelligence technology to identify patterns of DNA fragments associated with lung cancer, researchers from the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center and other institutions have developed and validated a liquid biopsy that may help identify lung cancer earlier.
A new study demonstrates that minimally invasive blood collection devices could increase the participation of people experiencing homelessness (PEH) in public health studies and clinical research.
A novel study, led by the Department of Biomedical Sciences at Cedars-Sinai and published today in the peer-reviewed journal Nature, shows how cells use a protein called PD-L1 to rally white blood cells to battle infections.
