Population Health Management: SDOH Challenges and Solutions
Conclusion SDOH data collection has its challenges. The first step is to convince organizations and policymakers of its utility and promise to offer whole-person care. Without SDOH, providers are only taking in a fraction of their patient’s health. Therefore, the dismissal of SDOH only widens health disparity gaps and fuels a cycle of reduced patient engagement.  However, the use of focused SDOH benchmarking, routine screening assessments, and robust analytics tools can help organizations take steps toward greater health equity. This gives each patient the potential to achieve and maintain optimal physical hea...

Fight Aging! Newsletter, August 7th 2023
In conclusion, here, we demonstrate a novel mechanism for ESC-EVs to protect cells from senescence. However, whether ESC-EVs rejuvenate aged mice via miR-15b-5p and miR-290a-5p remains unknown. Next, we plan to use miR-15b-5p and miR-290a-5p antagonists while treating aged mice with ESC-EVs to further investigate the mechanism by which ESC-EVs resist aging in vivo. « Back to Top Fatty Acid Metabolism as a Commonality in Different Approaches to Slowing Aging https://www.fightaging.org/archives/2023/08/fatty-acid-metabolism-as-a-commonality-in-different-approaches-to-slowing-aging/ It seems...

Extracellular Vesicles from Young Cardiac Progenitor Cells Produce Benefits in Old Mice
The signaling environment in the body is generated by cells, communication mediated by the molecules that cells release and take up, many of which are packaged into extracellular vesicles. This signaling changes profoundly between development and adult life, and then again in important ways with advancing age. In principle, providing aged tissues with the signals passed back and forth during embryonic development will spur greater maintenance and regeneration. In practice, tissues are systems of great and only partially understood complexity, and attempts to beneficially manipulate signaling in this way are still very much...

Yesterday I discovered that a huge tree limb had fallen on my property. It came from an oak tree so tall I couldn ' t actually see the scar where it had broken off. It would have been a pretty big tree all by itself. I heat with firewood so on the one hand, this was a bonanza, but on the other hand it was complicated and laborious to clean it up. I ' ve been harvesting firewood and cleaning up deadfall since I was a kid, and I have have the necessary fixed capital - two chainsaws, a tractor with a loader, a peevee. There ' s a lot of knowledge, skill and judgment involved to do it safely. You have to start by removing...
