Postmenopausal Women At Greater Risk For Subsequent Bone Fractures by Karishma Abhishek on May 5, 2021 at 11:57 PM
Fractures in the arm, wrist, leg, and other parts of the body should also set off alarm bells for increasing the risk for subsequent bone breaks in the current guidelines for managing osteoporosis apart from specifically calling out hip or spine fractures as per the University Of California - Los Angeles Health Sciences (UCLA) -led study, published in the peer-reviewed journal EClinicalMedicine. A fracture, no matter the location, indicates a general tendency to break a bone in the future at a different location. Current clinical guidelines have only been emphasizing hip and spine fractures, but our findings challenge that viewpoint. By not paying attention to which types of fractures increase the risk of future fractures, we are missing the opportunity to identify people at increased risk of future fracture and counsel them regar

A study led by the University of California- Los Angeles Health Sciences (UCLA) used 3D-printed blood vessels to explain how the COVID-19 virus increases the risk of stroke. Researchers did a study about the running fluid spiked with a COVID-19-like protein through a 3D-printed model of the arteries of a patient who had suffered a stroke. Although COVID-19 was first identified by its severe respiratory symptoms, little is known about how the virus increases the risk for stroke. Another discovery shows that when the scientists analyzed which genes were turned on in the endothelial cells after the coronavirus spike proteins bound to them, they found that the genes that were activated were a specific set of immune-response genes that are found in brain blood vessel cells, but not in endothelial cells from other organs of the body. The researchers intend to conduct follow-up studies using a live coronavirus in the 3D-printed blood vessel model, whi
