Flavanol-rich diet is assumed to help people lower blood pressure. Some of the flavanol containing fruits include berries, tea, and apples. According to the researchers from the U.K., consumption of food along with the diet plays an important role in cardiovascular diseases. Previous studies have shown a strong connection between flavanols and health benefits. Thus, the researchers basically wanted to measure the intake of compounds by identifying the presence of biomarkers present in the urin
According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration(FDA), recently, anovelmedicationhas been approved as a part of aninfluential and three-pronged treatment program for the deadliest strain of tuberculosis. The drug named Pretomanid in combination with linezolid and bedaquiline was sanctioned to be utilizedin adults havingXDR-TB, which is extensive multidrug-resistant tuberculosis,of the lungs. It is triggered by a bacterium that attacks the lungs. However there are other forms of TB that can a
Early life trauma is likely to have a hugeimpact the structureof the brain in a way that makes clinical depression more prone to be serious and recurrent, as per to a 2-Year observational research of 110 patients. The researchers have published this new finding inThe Lancet Psychiatry. Previousstudies have shown astrong connection between maltreatment and modified brain structure as well as a link betweenmaltreatment and serious depressive disease. It is the first time that a straightway conne
Coronavirus pandemic has taken the entire world by a world storm as a permanent cure and means to resist the virus has not yet been found. Currently, the medical professionals have tried many therapies and existing drugs to inhibit the spread of the virus in COVID-19. Researchers have found remdesivir and dexamethasone to be the only drugs that have hastened COVID-19 recovery. It is remdesivir that has been approved by the FDA as a drug for curing COVID-19. Additionally, the blood thinners are
It has been found that the CD2AP gene probably plays an important role in enhancing Alzheimers disease vulnerability. A team from Baylor College of Medicine has used mice, fruit flies, and human brains to find the CD2AP gene involvement in synaptic spread, which is ameans neuronsuse to interact. Similarly, the team found CD2AP to have an impact on neuronal communication by measuring the levels of important regulatory proteins present at neuron terminals synapses.This study published in the jou
As the UV rays are harmful for the skin, there are thousands of skincare products being manufactured to protect the skin from such unsafe radiations. The current additions to the list of aggressors that damage the skin include Blue light. It was earlier considered that the Blue light is usually emitted only by the Sun but now it has been found that the screens of a number of digital devices also emit such rays. Majorly, the devices emitting the light include TV, laptops, phones, fluorescent li
Switching the visualization concept to 3D is what the researchers are currently working on. The Kota Kumagai and his colleaguesat the Utsunomiya University in Japan used a volumetric bubble display to make 3D images, which clearly represents the three-dimensional concept.Though the volumetric bubble technology is still in the millimeter scale it still has highly advanced full color volumetric display. This new colorful bubble graphics could be viewed through a wide range of angles as well as u
It has been found that the interaction between a patient and his or her physician does have a huge impact on the patients response to treatment. However, there is still no clue about which part of the brain plays an important role in the interaction and which behavior is likely to influence the clinical response, thereby making it crucial to standardize patient-clinician interactions for clinical benefit. The team of researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) has developed a method
To predict the spread of infectious disease, the researchers from Mayo Clinic have developed a web-based analytics that has the ability to analyze Google web searches for keywords related to COVID-19. It has been found that there is a robustlink between keyword hunts on the Internet search engine, like Google Trends, and COVID-19 plagues in the different U.S regions. On detailed studying the researchers saw information obtained from Google Trends to follow the outbreaks and thus, using the pre
Recently, a team of chemists from the University of Bayreuth has developed a material that could help make an important contribution to climate protection and sustainable industrial manufacture. The new material is expected to help separate the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) from industrial waste gases,biogas, or natural gas and further be recycled. The separation process is energy efficient as well as cost-effective. In the journal Cell Reports Physical Sciencethe researchers have provid
