Leanne Aciz Stanton November 21, 2023 at 7:29 PM Kellan Lutz. Cindy Ord/WireImage Kellan Lutz is impressed by how realistic special effects in films can be — so much so, that he believes movie blood looks “way better” than the blood he saw during wife Brittany Gonzales’ C-sections. In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly, […]
There’s new insight into so-called ‘zombie’ cells that can age the brains of Covid-19 patients, contributing to brain fog and memory loss. Scientists have uncovered how to reverse the ageing effects of ‘zombie’ cells in Covid-19 patients, sparking fresh hope the findings could be used in Alzheimer’s research. Senescent cells, also known as zombie cells, […]
Dogs in at least seven states have been infected. Symptoms include coughing, fever, lethargy and intermittent loss of appetite. A mysterious respiratory illness that has been sickening dogs continues to spread across the United States while veterinarians try to determine its causes and the best methods for treating it. The symptoms are similar to kennel […]
Key Points Question Is long-term use of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) medication associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD)? Findings In this case-control study of 278 027 individuals in Sweden aged 6 to 64 years who had an incident ADHD diagnosis or ADHD medication dispensation, longer cumulative duration of ADHD medication use was associated […]
When I first started dental hygiene school, I learned instrumentation on a typodont. After much practice, I became more confident and knew I would do well as a dental hygienist. Then I encountered a real mouth, and a tongue—a squirmy, large muscle that seemed to inflate and take up all the space in the mouth. […]
Abstract Through extensive multisystem phenotyping, the central aim of Project PICMAN is to correlate metabolic flexibility to measures of cardiometabolic health, including myocardial diastolic dysfunction, coronary and cerebral atherosclerosis, body fat distribution and severity of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. This cohort will form the basis of larger interventional trials targeting metabolic inflexibility in the prevention […]
Characteristics of the population stratified by triglyceride glucose index As presented in Table 1, baseline patient characteristics were stratified by TyG index quartiles (Q): Q1: < 8.148; Q2: 8.148–8.569; Q3: 8.570–9.019; Q4: ≥ 9.020. The mean TyG index levels in these quartiles were 7.811 ± 0.271, 8.365 ± 0.122, 8.783 ± 0.130, and 9.499 ± 0.471, respectively. In comparison with patients with lower TyG index values, those […]

Transmissible cancer affects marine bivalve mollusks worldwide, but how genetic mechanisms influence cancer evolution and disease spread remains largely unexplored. Two new studies provide insights into the ancient origin of founder clones and the long-term tolerance of contagious cancer cells to extreme genome instability. Two studies in this issue of Nature Cancer set out to […]
