Inflammatory protein linked to severe COVID-19

Inflammatory protein linked to severe COVID-19: Patients with severe COVID-19 show increased levels of a key protein in their blood, which researchers believe may help identify those most at risk. In an analysis of more than 500 COVID-19 patients across the UK, researchers identified several inflammatory markers in blood which increased within the early stages […]

Myelin: one of the major factors of age-related brain deterioration

A new study led by the University of Portsmouth has identified that one of the major factors of age-related brain deterioration is the loss of a substance called myelin. Myelin acts like the protective and insulating plastic casing around the electrical wires of the brain – called axons. Myelin is essential for superfast communication between […]

Selecting treatment for breast cancer: mathematics for precision medicine

Selecting treatment for breast cancer: mathematics for precision medicine: The precise choice of treatment for breast cancer depends upon the status of the hormone receptors (for oestrogen and progesterone). Their conventional determination by means of immunohistochemistry (IHC) is associated with a certain error rate, which can be reduced by adding genomic data. Even conventional statistics […]
