The Future of Radiology And Artificial Intelligence
What if an algorithm could tell you whether you have cancer based on your CT scan or mammography exam? While I am confident that radiologists’ creative work will be necessary in the future to solve complex issues and supervise diagnostic processes, A.I. will definitely become part of their daily routine in diagnosing simpler cases and taking over repetitive tasks. So rather than getting threatened by it, we should familiarise ourselves with how it could help change the course of radiology for the better. Radiologists who use A.I. will replace those who don’t There is a lot of hype and plenty of fear around ar...

Fight Aging! Newsletter, July 18th 2022
In conclusion, we show that PVS morphology in mice is variable and that the structure and function of pia suggests a previously unrecognized role in regulating CSF transport and amyloid clearance in aging and disease. Reversing Ovarian Fibrosis in Mice https://www.fightaging.org/archives/2022/07/reversing-ovarian-fibrosis-in-mice/ Researchers here provide evidence for ovarian fibrosis to be an important mechanism in limiting the age at which female mammals can remain fertile. Interestingly, existing antifibrotic drugs can produce some reversal of this fibrosis, enough to restore ovulation in mice. Fibros...

How Does Systemic Inflammation in the Body Cause Neuroinflammation in the Brain?
The chronic inflammation of aging is harmful, disruptive of tissue structure and function, altering cell behavior for the worse. The immune system reacts to many of the varied signs of molecular damage that become prevalent in old tissues, such as DNA debris from dying cells, and the result is unresolved inflammatory signaling. Neurodegenerative conditions in particular appear to be driven by inflammation, but given that the brain is separated from the body by the blood-brain barrier, and the immune systems of brain and body are also distinct and separate, how is it that inflammation in the body generates neuroinflammation...

How IoT Medical Devices Save and Improve Lives
The following is a guest article by Erik Kling, Interim Head of IoT Americas at Vodafone Business. IoT, or the Internet of Things, has transformed our homes with connected lights and smart appliances. It’s also revolutionized all areas of business, including manufacturing. Sensors connected to the internet can track goods throughout the supply chain — from sourcing materials to delivering completed products to consumers. IoT technology has improved the way we live, but its most profound impact may be in healthcare, where it’s saving lives and improving health. Before IoT revolutionized healthcare, doctors and care pr...

Precision medicine: the rifle vs. shotgun approach to cancer treatment
Why does one person respond favorably to lung cancer treatment while another does not? The answer lies in their DNA. Just 20 years ago, lung cancer was broadly categorized into two groups:  non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Relatively recently, the treatment of NSCLC shifted from chemotherapy as a single treatment optionRead more …Precision medicine: the rifle vs. shotgun approach to cancer treatment originally appeared inKevinMD.com.

June 09, 2022 Edition-----The Russian war on Ukraine is now well over 100 days old. The destruction and deaths are just awful and the world is being seriously re-shaped. Where this ends is unknowable but unlikely to be good.In the US we are seeing almost daily mass shootings and no-one seems to know what to do. Just pathetic.In the UK the hangover is slowly lifting after the 4 day royal celebration.In OZ we are having an energy crisis which we hope we will find solutions for soon!-----Major Issues.------https://www.theaustralian.com.au/business/economics/australias-labor-government-faces-a-whole-new-economic-ball-game/news...

Nothing Good Can Come From FDA ’s Proposed Ban of Menthol Cigarettes
Jeffrey A. SingerFood and Drug Administration Commissioner Robert M. Califfannounced today that the agency plans to seek a ban on menthol cigarettes and cigars.This ironically comes in the wake of recentresearch that shows menthol smokers have no greater difficulty giving up smoking than non ‐​menthol smokers. Even more ironic is the fact that FDA researchersreported in the journalNicotine and Tobacco Research:We found evidence of lower lung cancer mortality risk among menthol smokers compared with non ‐​menthol smokers among smokers at ages 50 and over in the U.S. populationAnd a prospective cohort study...

Fight Aging! Newsletter, April 18th 2022
In conclusion, our results suggest that SAH extends lifespan by inducing MetR or mimicking its downstream effects. Since the lifespan-extending effects of SAH are conserved in yeast and nematodes, and MetR extends the lifespan of many species, exposure to SAH is expected to have multiple benefits across evolutionary boundaries. Our findings offer the enticing possibility that in humans the benefits of a MetR diet can be achieved by promoting Met reduction with SAH. The use of endogenous metabolites, such as SAH, is considered safer than drugs and other substances, suggesting that it may be one of the most feasible ways to ...

Bacteria Promote Cancer Metastasis
Given the onset of a particular type of cancer, why does that cancer become a much worse prospect for only some individuals? Why are some people more prone to metastasis, for example? A perhaps underappreciated factor is the interaction of infectious agents with the tumor microenvironment, as researchers discuss here. Exposure to pathogens, and particularly persistent pathogens, may be a good explanation for many areas of medicine in which only some people bearing all of the traditional risk factors go on to develop the worst outcomes. Microbes play a critical role in affecting cancer susceptibility and tumor prog...

If You ’ ve Seen One Robot – Wait, What?
BY KIM BELLARD If You’ve Seen One Robot – Wait, What? We think we know robots, from the old school Robbie the Robot to the beloved R2-D2/C-3PO to the acrobatic Boston Dynamics robots or the very human-like Westworld ones.   But you have to love those scientists: they keep coming up with new versions, ones that shatter our preconceptions.  Two, in particular, caught my attention, in part because both expect to have health care applications, and in part because of how they’re described. Hint: the marketing people are going to have some work to do on the names.  ———– Let’s...
