Confirmed by research: Intellectual disability is rarely inherited - Risk for younger siblings is low

Date Time Confirmed by research: Intellectual disability is rarely inherited – Risk for younger siblings is low Intellectual disability is most often caused by changes to the genome that take place in early foetal development and are not found in the parents’ DNA. This is why the risk of recurrence in the next sibling of the family is very small, as indicated by a study conducted at the University of Helsinki. Furthermore, Finns do not have a higher risk of inherited developmental disorders compared to other Europeans. The prevalence of intellectual disabilities, which means difficulties with learning and understanding new things, is roughly 1-2% in the population. People with a severe intellectual disability need help from others in daily activities throughout their lives.

Canadian activist makes inaccurate claims about Covid-19 vaccine safety

Copyright AFP 2017-2021. All rights reserved. An Ontario anti-mask activist makes false claims in an Instagram video about the safety of Covid-19 vaccines available in Canada and misleadingly refers to potential adverse vaccine reactions recorded in the United States. Medical experts said the shots do not alter the DNA of recipients or make people infectious, and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said that it has not detected safety issues with the vaccines. “All the reasons not to take an experimental mRNA injection never before used on humans,” reads the caption of a February 21, 2021 video that has been viewed more than 195,000 times on Instagram as of March 5, 2021.

Preventing seizures after brain injury could stave off dementia

E-Mail Blocking seizures after a head injury could slow or prevent the onset of dementia, according to new research by University of Alberta biologists. Traumatic brain injury is a major risk factor for dementia, but the reason this is the case has remained mysterious, said Ted Allison, co-author and professor in the Department of Biological Sciences in the Faculty of Science. Through this research, we have discovered one important way they are linked namely, post-injury seizures. There is currently no treatment for the long-term effects of traumatic brain injury, which includes developing dementia, added lead author Hadeel Alyenbaawi, who recently completed her PhD dissertation on this topic in the Department of Medical Genetics in the Faculty of Medicine & Dentistry.
