Efficient Disease Risk Prediction a Long Way Off, Experts Say

AppId is over the quotaAppId is over the quota THURSDAY, May 24 (HealthDay News) -- Detailed information about a person's genetic makeup and their environmental risk factors does not significantly change their disease risk prediction, according to the results of a new simulation study.The researchers, from the Harvard School of Public Health, said that much more research is needed before information on patients' genetic variants could actually help...

Prenatal Factors influence Kwashiorkor: Evidence for the Predictive Adaptation Model

AppId is over the quota AppId is over the quota Severe acute malnutrition in childhood manifests as oedematous (kwashiorkor, marasmic kwashiorkor) and non-oedematous (marasmus) syndromes with very different prognoses. Kwashiorkor differs from marasmus in the patterns of protein, amino acid and lipid metabolism when patients are acutely ill as well as after rehabilitation to ideal weight for height. Metabolic patterns among marasmic patients define them as metabolically thrifty, while kwashiorkor patients function as metabolically profligate. Such...

Turning Up The Heat: Immune Brinksmanship In The Acute-phase Response

AppId is over the quota AppId is over the quota AbstractThe acute-phase response (APR) is a systemic response to severe trauma, infection, and cancer, although many of the numerous cytokine-mediated components of the APR are incompletely understood. Some of these components, such as fever, reduced availability of iron and zinc, and nutritional restriction due to anorexia, appear to be stressors capable of causing harm to both the pathogen and the host. We review how the host benefits from differences in susceptibility to stress between pathogens...

AppId is over the quota AppId is over the quota This article introduces a special issue of the Journal of Molecular Medicine on Evolutionary Molecular Medicine. The first paragraphs are below. New technologies have always been the driving forces for major developments in science. Medicine is no exception. New sequencing technologies have enabled us to begin understanding the genomic and molecular origins of life and the reasons for disease; they are also transforming evolutionary biology into a new, precise, molecular science that has enormous...
