Emory researchers identify key immune cell type that drives the transition from early to late COVID-19

Determining how SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, moves from an early stage of infection, when patients are largely asymptomatic, into a later stage when people may experience life-threatening inflammation in the lungs, is a critical step in understanding how to target and treat the disease more efficiently.

Study identifies interesting sequence features in SARS-CoV-2 at start of COVID pandemic

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* pre-print server, researchers studied the sequence data from the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases from the Huanan seafood market in Beijing, China, to define the minor variant genome populations from the start of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-induced pandemic.

Improving dental care by linking medical and dental records in health Information exchanges

Dental professionals require access to each patient's complete electronic health record – including laboratory test results and current prescriptions – so they can provide the best care possible; care that is safe for the patient, promotes preventive management and improves dental treatment outcomes.

Evidence-based study shows how hypnotherapy provides positive outcomes for IBS patients

It is common that Hong Kong people might have experiences of disordered defecation with unknown reason, such as diarrhea and constipation. It is also easy to observe that abdominal discomforts often come along with stress. Emotion disturbance and stress might affect our intestinal functions.

Genomic analysis of the 2022 monkeypox outbreak

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* pre-print server, researchers analyzed two genomic sequences of the Monkeypox virus from Belgium and Portugal termed ITM001 and PT0001, respectively, to show that the May 2022 Monkeypox outbreak most likely originated from the West African clade of the virus.
