Researchers at Osaka University have developed a therapeutic method using periostin1-specific neutralizing antibodies to inhibit the onset of cardiac failure in the chronic phase, improving patients' quality of life and reducing medical costs. The study's findings suggest that periostin1 is the primary cause of cardiac failure after AMI.
Quantum liquids exhibit unique properties in the non-equilibrium regime, contrary to Landau Fermi-liquid theory's predictions. The discovery opens up new avenues for exploring quantum many-body physics through fluctuations.
A study found that up to 66.8% of households experience catastrophic health expenditure for tuberculosis care, with the poorest households bearing the brunt. Expanding universal healthcare and increasing reimbursement rates could lower these costs and have positive economic effects.
A major winter storm has departed the Eastern Seaboard, bringing record-breaking snowfall to the Mid-Atlantic region. The storm set multiple snowfall records in states such as Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania, with some areas receiving up to 3.5 feet of snow.
