Rare diseases are characterized by their low prevalence, affecting a small number of people across the world. These diseases often come with significant challenges, including accurate diagnosis, availability of effective treatments, and limited resources for research and development. However, recent advancements in diagnostics technology hold promise for speeding up the field of rare disease ...
As we all know, proteins play important roles in human bodies since all physiologic events are related to the structural or mechanical functions of certain proteins. Studying the synthesis process of proteins is a way to study the etiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of certain diseases. The human genome contains approximately 3 billion base pairs of DNA. Among them, only about 30 ...
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has recently been recognized as the single greatest unmet need in cardiovascular medicine, overtaking heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and becoming the most common form of heart failure, with a prevalence that is increasing by 1% annually.[1] Despite this, there remains no gold standard in diagnosing HFpEF. Diagnosing ...
Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that is most commonly known for affecting movement. It primarily impacts dopaminergic, or dopamine-producing, neurons in a specific area of the brain known as the substantia nigra. Typically, symptoms develop slowly over years and continue to worsen as the disease progresses. While the manifestation of symptoms tends to vary ...
One of the common misconceptions related to virtual triage / symptom checker tools is that the more questions the system asks, the more accurate the list of possible conditions / triage level recommendations will be and so, overall, the conclusion is that it is more thorough and, therefore, a better tool. If you are looking to provide your patients with a symptom checker/triage tool or are a ...

Bromelain is closely related to pineapple. Chemist Vicente Marcano first discovered bromelain in pineapple in 1891, and then another chemist, Russell Henry Chittenden, extracted bromelain from pineapple fruit, which was then called "proteolytic enzyme in pineapple juice". Scientists have found that ripe pineapple stems have higher levels of bromelain. Many tropical fruits, such as papaya, mango, ...
Genetics (i.e., mutations) are considered to be the main factor predisposing to the etiology of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but they account for only a few changes in RA disease risk, and in contrast to genetics, the environment may have an important impact on epigenetic properties associated with disease etiology. Recently, in a study published in the journal Scientific Reports entitled ...
In response to the COVID-19 caused by the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), there are currently many vaccines on the market worldwide. However, despite the fact that major manufacturers are working hard to produce vaccines, the speed of vaccination still cannot keep up with people's needs.

That represents approximately $7 billion per year in sick days and lost productivity. Most of us have seen a sick co-worker trying to make his way through the workday instead of ...
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is commonly grown on residual moisture after rice (Oryza sativa L.) in inland valley swamps (IVS), but not much work has been done to select genotypes that could bulk early, and have high storage root yield in the IVS. Earlier improvement work focused on development of varieties adapted to upland conditions (12-mo cycle), but recently farmers are requesting ...
