New, Cost-Effective Dental Technique Cuts Risk Of Cavities In Children By 80%
The new technique can be performed by a dental nurse and not necessarily by a dentist.
‘Cutting-Edge’ Cancer Treatment Technology Uses ‘Targeted Radiation’ To Cure Cancer
The new technology also reduces the exposure of healthy cells to radiation.
‘Severe’ Changes In Brain Found In Long COVID Patients: Study
Scientists found that even mild COVID-19 could lead to structural alterations in the brain.
Surge in nitrous oxide abuse: New guidelines to help clinicians recognize cases and prevent spinal cord damage
Recommendations from research published today on the diagnosis and treatment of spinal cord damage caused by nitrous oxide abuse have been simultaneously adopted as official clinical practice guidelines by the Association of British Neurologists. The unprecedented speed in translating research into practice is necessary as medical cases of nitrous oxide abuse surge in parallel with increased use of what is now the second most popular recreational drug among young people in the UK.
After 25 years of AI health tech research, computers are slowly beginning to listen to patients
Patients’ experiences of health conditions are slowly being integrated into health care AI studies, a review of 25 years of studies has found.
Research team creates statistical model to predict COVID-19 resistance
Researchers from Johns Hopkins Medicine and The Johns Hopkins University have created and preliminarily tested what they believe may be one of the first models for predicting who has the highest probability of being resistant to COVID-19 in spite of exposure to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes it.
Neuropsychologist argues for implementing value-based dementia care
The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) Catalyst recently published an article by Ochsner Health neuropsychologist R. John Sawyer, Ph.D. along with Ashley LaRoche, CCRC, Sakshi Sharma, MS and Carolina Pereira-Osorio, MS. “Making the Business Case for Value-Based Dementia Care” is an in-depth look at the critical need for value-based care models for patients with dementia and their caregivers.
Microcalcification ‘fingerprints’ can yield info about cancer
An interdisciplinary collaboration 10 years in the making used a materials science approach to “fingerprint” the calcium mineral deposits known as microcalcifications that reveal pathological clues to the progression of breast cancer and potentially other diseases.
Mapping unknown territory in the zebrafish brain to gain insight into neural structure
When one travels through rough terrain, maps come in handy. They also help researchers to study the complex organization of the brain. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Intelligence have created a new set of maps for the zebrafish brain. They determined the activity of hundreds of genes with single-cell resolution and assembled the maps into an interactive atlas. The online resource supports researchers in finding their way around the brain of this vertebrate and provides new insights into neural structure and function.
