A new study looked at the effect of patient genetics on their response to secukinumab, an anti-IL17 therapy commonly used to treat inflammatory conditions including arthritis and psoriasis. No link was found between a patient’s genetic variants and their response to therapy. This study challenges the idea that genetics might significantly account for the variable […]
A Japanese research team led by the National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center Research Institute has identified for the first time progenitor cells that specifically transform into the contractile cells of the left ventricle during heart development. Identifying one of the diverse progenitor cells involved in the formation of the heart will guide future studies and […]
With the men’s Rugby World Cup in France almost upon us, the risk of injury during the summer warm-up games has been a serious concern for coaches and players. While injuries are a feature of any contact sport, our new research shows that the imbalance in size between the quadriceps and hamstrings muscle groups is […]
A research team, affiliated with UNIST has achieved a milestone in tissue regeneration by developing a technology that utilizes autologous blood to produce three-dimensional microvascular implants. These implants hold immense potential for various applications requiring vascular regeneration, including the treatment of chronic wounds. Led by Professor Joo H. Kang from the Department of Biomedical Engineering […]

Invasive medical procedures, such as surgery requiring local anesthesia, often involve the risk of nerve injury. During operation, surgeons may accidentally cut, stretch, or compress nerves, especially when mistaking them for some other tissue. This can lead to long-lasting symptoms in the patient, including sensory and motor problems. Similarly, patients receiving nerve blockades or other […]
