Changes in biochemical, hematological parameters seen before IBD diagnosis

Changes in multiple biochemical and hematological parameters occur up to eight years before diagnosis of Crohn disease and up to three years before diagnosis of ulcerative colitis, according to a study published in the Nov. 21 issue of Cell Reports Medicine. Marie Vibeke Vestergaard, from Aalborg University in Copenhagen, Denmark, and colleagues used measurements from …

Unstable ‘fluttering’ predicts aortic aneurysm with 98% accuracy

The fluttering instability parameter can predict where abnormal growth will occur in the aorta. Credit: Tom Zhao/Northwestern University Northwestern University researchers have developed the first physics-based metric to predict whether or not a person might someday suffer an aortic aneurysm, a deadly condition that often causes no symptoms until it ruptures. In the new study, …

Biomedical engineers unveil the dynamics of maternal immune responses

Mechanistic model captures IgG subclass-specific transfer dynamics. Credit: PLOS Computational Biology (2023). DOI: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1011109 Sepideh Dolatshahi, an assistant professor of biomedical engineering at the University of Virginia, is spearheading an exploration of systems immunology in its crucial development phase—during pregnancy. Systems immunology is about unraveling concealed patterns within the human immune system, said Dolatshahi, whose …

Microbiome insights found in poop help predict infections in liver transplant patients

Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain In a new study, researchers at the University of Chicago were able to predict postoperative infections in liver transplant patients by analyzing molecules in their poop. Their analysis represents a key leap forward in exploring the connection between the gut microbiome—the bacteria that inhabit the human body—and overall health. “Antibiotic resistance …
