Exploring the Link Between Atrial Fibrillation and Dementia – Neurology Advisor

Posted: Published on December 5th, 2019

Both atrial fibrillation (AF) and dementia are highly prevalent pathologies, with reported rates of approximately 33.5 million and 40 million worldwide.1,2 Experts anticipate that the prevalence of both conditions will continue to increase along with the growing elderly population, and accumulating research suggests that AF may increase the risk for cognitive decline and dementia.2,3 There are many studies showing an increased rate of all types of dementia in patients with [AF], said Hugh Calkins, MD, FHRS, FACC, FAHA, FESC, the Catherine Ellen Poindexter Professor of Cardiology and director of the electrophysiology laboratory and arrhythmia service at Johns Hopkins University. New data [have] also shown that treatment of AF lowers the risk of cognitive dysfunction, he told Neurology Advisor Continue reading →

New research reveals how antiretroviral drugs may damage the hearts of infants exposed to HIV but uninfected – UB Now: News and views for UB faculty…

Posted: Published on December 5th, 2019

Research News By ELLEN GOLDBAUM Published December 4, 2019 All babies born to mothers infected with HIV are exposed to the virus in utero, but not all of them become infected with it. Yet, all pregnant women in the U.S. with HIV receive antiretroviral therapy (ART), so both infected and uninfected babies exposed to HIV in utero are exposed to these powerful drugs.

Duke Researchers Show How Stem Cell Mutations Arise and Metastasize in the Colon – Clinical OMICs News

Posted: Published on December 5th, 2019

Scientists at the Duke Cancer Institute report that they have observed how stem cell mutations quietly arise and spread throughout a widening field of the colon until they eventually predominate and become a malignancy. Working with mice, the researchers visually tagged colon cancer mutations by causing stem cells to glow. Continue reading →

Stem cells may trigger immune repair to mend hearts – BioNews

Posted: Published on December 5th, 2019

2 December 2019 Stem cell therapies may become redundant in repairing cardiac function after a heart attack, suggests a new study in mice. It showed how stem cell treatments can heal hearts by triggering an immune response which can be achieved by using a chemical instead. 'This work is paradigm-shifting because it demonstrates a mechanism to explain a perplexing phenomenon that has intrigued cardiologists as a result of decades of cardiac stem cell trials,' Dr Jonathan Epstein at the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine in Philadelphia told The Scientist.
