Study may offer insights into novel therapeutic strategies to treat COVID-19 related blood clots

Blood clots or thromboembolic complications in patients with COVID-19 are associated with increased levels of various proteins that cause blood to clot, compared with people with blood clots unrelated to COVID-19, according to a small study by Yale Cancer Center researchers.

Impact of tumor environments on susceptibility and course of disease in those infected with SARS-CoV-2

A review assessed the impact of "hot" vs. "cold" immune/tumor environments (and associated therapies) on susceptibility and disease course in subjects with these two types of tumors and infected with SARS-CoV-2 to decipher the mechanisms that drive these adverse outcomes in COVID-19 infected cancer patients.

Environmental exposure to low-levels of toxic metals may increase risk of clogged arteries

Environmental exposure to low-levels of the toxic metals arsenic, cadmium and titanium appears to increase the risk of plaque buildup in arteries in the neck, heart and legs, according to new research published today in the American Heart Association's journal Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology (ATVB).

Study reveals how a protein in the blood is attracted to key component of Adenovirus-based vaccines

A collaborative team from the School of Medicine at the University of Cardiff, Wales and a range of US institutions used the UK's national synchrotron, Diamond Light Source, to help reveal the details of how a protein in the blood is attracted to a key component of Adenovirus based vaccines.

Octapharma USA announces FDA approval of cutaquig 16.5% for pediatric PI patients

Octapharma USA today announced the U.S. Food & Drug Administration has approved cutaquig [Immune globulin, Subcutaneous (Human)-hipp, 16.5% Solution] for the treatment of pediatric patients age 2 and older with primary humoral immunodeficiency (PI). The FDA previously approved cutaquig for adults with PI.

Extreme heat associated with greater risk of adverse cardiovascular incidents

A consequence of global warming is a greater frequency and intensity of extreme heat events. This extreme heat is associated with a greater risk of adverse cardiovascular incidents, especially for adults with pre-existing cardiovascular diseases.

Lung autopsies provide a clearer picture of how SARS-CoV-2 virus spreads and causes damage

Lung autopsy and plasma samples from people who died of COVID-19 have provided a clearer picture of how the SARS-CoV-2 virus spreads and damages lung tissue.

Thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome rare but serious adverse event associated with Ad26.COV2.S vaccination

A recent study conducted in the United States has revealed that thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome following adenoviral vector-based coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination is a rare event.

Study analyzes association between obesity and endothelial dysfunction in COVID-19 patients

In COVID-19 patients, obesity is the factor most associated with the development of endothelial dysfunction, a condition in which the blood vessels become unable to contract and relax adequately, increasing the risk of events such as heart attacks, thrombosis (blood clotting), and stroke.

Oral drug works just as well as conventional therapy for anemia in patients with kidney disease

Anemia is a common and sometimes debilitating problem among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Anemia can occur when the kidneys become damaged, limiting the production of erythropoietin (EPO) -; a hormone that signals to the body to make red blood cells.
