Cellular IPOD plays role in prion biology

Cells take advantage of a biologically ancient compartment to sequester prions, an action that can initially prevent the prions' phenotypic expression, according to Whitehead Institute researchers. While in this compartment, less heritable prion plaques mature to a more transmissible state.

Study results confirm safety and efficacy of INSIGHTEC's Exablate Neuro system for the treatment of essential tremor

INSIGHTEC, the leader in MR-guided Focused Ultrasound (MRgFUS) therapy, has announced that the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) has published the results of a pivotal study of their Exablate Neuro system for the non-invasive treatment of essential tremor (ET). The study met its primary endpoint with patients treated with Exablate Neuro demonstrating a clinically significant 47% improvement in a composite tremor score at three months as compared to no change in the sham cohort.

TSO3 files patent application for innovations made to its sterilization systems

TSO3 Inc., an innovator in low temperature sterilization technology for medical devices in healthcare settings, through the use of ozone (a cost effective, safe and eco-friendly method) today announced that it has filed a patent application in the United States seeking protection in that market as well as preserving rights in many other countries of recent innovations made to its sterilization systems, which enable both significantly faster and gentler cycles.

What happens in the first few days of SARS-CoV-2 infection?

New research, published in PLOS Biology, has evaluated SARS-CoV-2 infection in primary cultures of well-differentiated cells to determine how the virus affects the body and how the infection starts. Answers to these questions are essential to forming a general understanding of viral pathogenesis, which helps us develop effective prevention and treatment strategies for COVID-19.

Vascular Access

The arteriovenous (AV) fistulae is considered long term vascular access for hemodialysis because it allows good blood flow, lasts a long time, and is less likely to get infected or cause blood clots than other types of access. Patients who don't have time to get a permanent vascular access before they start hemodialysis treatments may need to use a venous catheter as a temporary access.
