Study reveals blood markers to predict healthspan and aging trajectories

University of Pittsburgh researchers have uncovered blood-based markers linked with healthy and rapid aging, allowing them to predict a person's biological age -; how fast a person's cells and organs age regardless of their birthdate.

Parental obesity linked to higher odds of adult offspring obesity

Individuals have six times the odds of living with obesity in middle age if both their parents lived with obesity at that age, new research to be presented at the European Congress on Obesity (ECO 2024, Venice, 12-15 May), has found. Having one parent living with obesity trebles the odds.

Common age-associated changes in the blood found to be a risk factor for acute kidney injury

A U.S.-Canadian research collaboration led by Vanderbilt University Medical Center has identified common, age-associated changes in the blood as a risk factor for acute kidney injury (AKI), which occurs in more than 1 in 5 hospitalized adults worldwide.

"Copy-paste" genetic mechanism increases the genetic diversity of malaria parasite

By dissecting the genetic diversity of the most deadly human malaria parasite – Plasmodium falciparum – researchers at EMBL's European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) have identified a mechanism of 'copy-paste' genetics that increases the genetic diversity of the parasite at accelerated time scales.
