Plasma Exchange Of No Use In Multiple Myeloma

New findings published in the Annals of Internal Medicine this week have found that the standard therapy for patients who are on the verge of kidney failure is useless. //The study conducted by researchers at Lawson Health Research Institute scientists in London, Canada found that a treatment called "plasma exchange" in patients with multiple myeloma has no benefits. This means that the...

Patients with HIV-1 can predict plasma lipids level based on race

It is a known fact that your race has a profound effect on your health status. Confirming that study is a research held at University of Massachusetts// and Pennsylvania which shows that race/ethnicity is a predictor of plasma lipids in patients with HIV-1 on HAART (highly active antiretroviral therapy). The study was conducted on 626 patients participating in several ongoing AIDS Cli...

Toxoplasma Linked to a Protein

London: Scientists in Britain are trying to investigate the reason why the common parasite Toxoplasma,// does not cause harm to most people, but could make many others seriously ill. Toxoplasma is a genus of parasitic protozoa which is carried by cats, but can also be passed on by many other warm-blooded animals, even humans. Toxoplasma causes the disease called toxoplasmosis, which i...

Findings on Dangerous Parasite, Toxoplasma Gondii Published

Montana State University researchers and their collaborators are gaining widespread attention for discoveries involving// a common parasite that can threaten everyone from babies to AIDS patients. Their findings about Toxoplasma gondii and toxoplasmosis were published recently in three major scientific journals. Nature published a paper in its advanced online version. "I...

Multiple Low-energy Plasma Skin Treatments Beneficial in Reducing Facial Wrinkles

A recent study has demonstrated the benefits of multiple low-energy treatments, combined with a plasma skin regeneration tool//, that can help reduce wrinkles and enhance the appearance, in record healing time. These multiple treatments have the same impact of a single high-energy session, with reduced healing times. "Plasma is a unique state of matter in which electrons are stripped...

Low Energy Plasma Treatment Better in Reducing Wrinkles

A new study finds that faster recovery may be possible with many low energy treatments than with one high-energy treatment for reduction of wrinkles. // The results of this study were published in the "Archives of Dermatology." The study was conducted on eight participants over a three-month period during which they underwent low-energy plasma skin regenerations. Plasma ski...
