In seeking a safe yet effective way to predict Alzheimer's disease, researchers found a sugar molecule in the blood of affected patients. When combined with a simple memory test and genetic analysis, the research team was able to predict the onset of the condition up to a decade in advance with a…| New Atlas
Obesity caused by a high-fat Western diet damages the pancreas, affecting insulin production and blood sugar control even after dietary changes and weight is lost. The new research suggests that early intervention is needed to stop obesity from causing permanent pancreatic damage.| New Atlas
An international team of researchers has found a genetic link to long-term symptoms after COVID-19. The identified gene variant is located close to the FOXP4 gene, which is known to affect lung function. The study, published in Nature Genetics, was led by researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden and the Institute for Molecular Medicine Finland. Biological causes behind persistent […] The post A gene variant increases the risk of long COVID appeared first on Journal of Anaesthesia ...| Journal of Anaesthesia Practice
