Recommendations for Reducing Death and Disability Among Stroke Victims to be Released at International Stroke …

Posted: Published on February 9th, 2015

Nashville, TN (PRWEB) February 09, 2015 To reduce death and disability among stroke victims and help healthcare providers lower rates of life-threatening venous thromboembolism (VTE) in ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke patients leading neurological health and patient safety experts will release Stroke VTE Safety Recommendations during the International Stroke Conference (ISC) 2015, February 11-13 in Nashville. Created by a group of leading neurological health and patient safety experts brought together by the Physician-Patient Alliance for Health & Safety, the Stroke VTE Safety Recommendations will be presented at a special luncheon taking place on the opening day of ISC 2015 Wednesday, February 11 from 12:50-1:30pm - CV Expert Theater, Booth 636. Presenters will include: The recommendations take direct aim at reducing VTE, commonly referred to as blood clots, which is a common and preventable cause of death and illness in hospital patients. Each year in the United States, an estimated 300,000 cases of VTE occur. Mortality can be as high as 3.8 percent in patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and 38.9 percent in those with pulmonary embolism (PE). VTE is associated with a high risk of death in the United States and Europe, with an estimated incidence rate of 1 in … Continue reading →

Scientist Ted Sourkes pioneered Parkinsons treatment

Posted: Published on February 9th, 2015

Theodore (Ted) Lionel Sourkes worked to solve the riddle of chemicals within the body like a detective in the mystery novels he enjoyed. He was both a biochemist and a neuropsychopharmacologist, a specialist who makes connections between different chemicals in the brain in order to understand and develop new medications for mental and neurological disorders. In this pursuit he was highly successful. Dr. Sourkes was one of the pioneers behind the concept of todays most effective treatment against symptoms of Parkinsons disease. The Montreal scientist also studied the metabolism of brain neurotransmitters and the role of vitamins in the nervous system. Long before the notion became widely accepted, he recognized that mental illnesses might be caused by biochemical alterations in specific regions of the brain. Dr. Sourkes died of pneumonia on Jan. 17 at Montreal General Hospital. He was 95. Dr. Sourkes had a reputation worldwide as one of Canadas great scholars. He published hundreds of papers, and wrote books, one on the biochemistry of mental disease (with the same title), and another on the history of Nobel Prize winners in medicine and physiology. Although the Nobel Prize eluded him, he received numerous honours including the first Heinz-Lehmann Award in … Continue reading →

Peptide may help treat heart attack, stroke

Posted: Published on February 9th, 2015

Jerusalem, Feb 9: A naturally occurring peptide may lead to drug therapies for traumatic brain injury, stroke and heart attack, scientists say. Strokes, heart attacks and traumatic brain injuries are separate diseases with certain shared pathologies that achieve a common end cell death and human injury due to hypoxia, or lack of oxygen. In these diseases, a lack of blood supply to affected tissues begins a signalling pathway that ultimately halts the production of energy-releasing ATP molecules a death sentence for most cells. By employing derivatives of humanin, a naturally occurring peptide encoded in the genome of cellular mitochondria, researchers at Ben Gurion University of the Negev in Beer-Sheva, Israel, are working to interrupt this process, buying precious time for tissues whose cellular mechanisms have called it quits. The present findings could provide a new lead compound for the development of drug therapies for necrosis-related diseases such as traumatic brain injury, stroke and myocardial infarction conditions for which no effective drug-based treatments are currently available [that work by blocking necrosis], said Abraham Parola, a professor of biophysical chemistry at Ben Gurion University of the Negev. The humanin derivatives work by counteracting the decrease in ATP levels caused by necrosis. The … Continue reading →

Researchers create 'shuttle' to cross blood-brain barrier

Posted: Published on February 9th, 2015

February 8, 2015 This image shows the detail of one millimeter of a mouse brain. In green, capillaries that form part of the blood-brain barrier; in red, molecules attached to the shuttle patented by IRB Barcelona have managed to cross the barrier and reach the brain (black background). (Credit: Benjam Oller/IRB Barcelona) Provided by Snia Armengou, Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB Barcelona) The brain is protected by a barrier of cells that tightly regulates the transport of substances into this organ in order to prevent infection. The essential protective function of this barrier is also a red light for 98% of drug candidates for the treatment of the central nervous system. Tuesday, inAngewandte Chemie, scientists at the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB Barcelona) presented a shuttle able to cross the blood-brain barrier and transport various substances into the brain. The team of chemists at IRB Barcelona is now studying its application for specific medical conditions. Together with clinical researchers, they are preparing treatments for glioblastoma, the most aggressive brain cancer in adultsFriedreichs Ataxia, a hereditary neurodegenerative disease, and a type of pediatric brain cancer. It is estimated that 20% of humans at some time will need a treatment … Continue reading →

Stem cells cure hope for diabetes

Posted: Published on February 9th, 2015

Research scientists (from left) Dr Jim Faed, Vicky Nelson and Dr Paul Turner talk about the possibilities of finding a cure for type 1 diabetes, during the Lion's Lark in the Park at the Dunedin Botanic Garden yesterday. Photo by Gregor Richardson. Cell biologist, haematologist and project leader Dr Jim Faed, of the University of Otago, made the promise during the Lion's Lark in the Park event at Dunedin's Botanic Garden yesterday, which aimed to help raise some of the $2.46 million needed to run the trials. Dr Faed said their research involved trials using stem cells taken from the bone marrow of people with type 1 diabetes, and using them to stimulate insulin production. The cells appeared to be able to ''turn off'' the auto immune response that causes type 1 diabetes, he said. ''We see this as the low hanging fruit of research into a cure for type 1 diabetes because it has already been done once before.'' Trials had already been carried out on mice and humans. It just needed fine tuning, he said. Much of the funds raised would go towards the Spinal Cord Society which will develop its stem cell production facilities in Dunedin, so … Continue reading →
