A new type of coronavirus believed to have originated in dogs was detected among patients hospitalised with pneumonia in 2017-2018, and may be the eighth unique coronavirus known to cause disease in humans if it is confirmed as a pathogen, a study said. Researchers in the study, published in the Clinical Infectious Diseases journal on Thursday, said their findings underscored the public health threat of animal coronaviruses. The researchers said they had tested nasal swab samples taken from...

New research suggests that actively playing music may have a small but positive impact on cognitive function, even in older adults who already show signs of dementia. Music does wonders for your mood, but did you know it might give your brain a boost, too? In fact, playing music— not just listening to it —has a positive effect on your cognition, even if you’re already showing signs of dementia , new research suggests. For a new meta-analysis published in the Journal of the American...

2021.8 by Elleen Xue When the crystal ball isn’t so clear . . . . . . one looks to the murkiness in the sphere. Having one foot in the eastern hemisphere and one foot in the western one, in real time, afforded me a unique view of the pandemic. I know, I know, you have read a trillion articles on the pandemic (and here I take the liberty of using hyperbole by exaggerating by orders of magnitude the numbers of cases of the crown prince pestilence) but alas I digress… Just how was it that data...

As confirmed cases of a novel virus surge around the world with worrisome speed, all eyes have so far focused on a seafood market in Wuhan, China, as the origin of the outbreak. But a description of the first clinical cases published in The Lancet on Friday challenges that hypothesis. The paper, written by a large group of Chinese researchers from several institutions, offers details about the first 41 hospitalized patients who had confirmed infections with what has been dubbed 2019 novel...

A new analysis of blood samples from 24,000 Americans taken early last year is the latest and largest study to suggest that the new coronavirus popped up in the U.S. in December 2019 — weeks before cases were first recognized by health officials. The analysis is not definitive, and some experts remain skeptical, but federal health officials are increasingly accepting a timeline in which small numbers of COVID-19 infections may have occurred in the U.S. before the world ever became aware of a...

The organ donation system should be based on the form of expressed consent, because the expressed consent policy respects patients’ bodily autonomy. Competent patients give expressed consent by signing authorization which allows the doctors to proceed with a certain medical treatment. The applying of this consent to organ donation makes organ donation a voluntary act. More specifically, individuals will not become organ donors without clear statements. It respects a human’s right in making...

In recent years, there has been a lot of talk about the Coronavirus transmission rates and symptoms this virus brings. From March 11, 2020, to the current year of February 2022, Covid-19 is still classified as a pandemic. However, one question still remains in the air: When will this pandemic end? First, let us distinguish the difference between an epidemic and a pandemic. According to Oxford Languages, a pandemic is defined as “ (of a disease) prevalent over a whole country or the world”...

In the unprecedented era of the pandemic, the hidden toll of mental illness was unveiled, intertwining with a troubling revelation about the prevalence of narcissistic personality disorder. As isolation engulfed communities and individuals grappled with fear, anxiety, and loss, the conditions created by the pandemic seemed to serve as a catalyst, unmasking the fragility of mental health and illuminating the disturbingly narcissistic tendencies that emerged amidst the chaos. This...

Background: about protein Almost every activity inside human body utilizes proteins. Protein is categorized as a type of macronutrient. Macronutrient is defined as one of the nutrients able to provide energy. For most people, providing energy is protein’s least significant role in the human body since body will prioritize the energy provision by metabolizing fats and carbohydrates. Protein is regularly spared from energy provision for its unique functions. Its components, the amino acids,...

In a medical miracle that has stunned the world, 12-year-old Suleiman Hassan’s life was miraculously saved after a traumatic accident left him decapitated. After being hit by a car while riding his bike, Hassan was left with a condition known as atlanto-occipital dislocation, or ‘internal decapitation’, an injury that is extremely rare and considered fatal. Atlanto-occipital dislocation involves a disruption of the ligaments between the occiput (base of the skull) and the upper cervical...

The cranial nerves are a set of paired nerves in the back of your brain. Cranial nerves send electrical signals between your brain, face, neck and torso. Your cranial nerves help you taste, smell, hear and feel sensations. They also help you make facial expressions, blink your eyes and move your tongue.They are a key part of your nervous system. The cranial nerves emerge from the central nervous system above the level of the first vertebra of the vertebral column. The terminal nerves (0),...

The following report analyzes the topic.

Ms. Stacy Pike-Langenfeld, cofounder of the Krabbe disease advocacy KrabbeConnect, gave birth to her daughter Makayla in 2001. Makayla “was perfect until she wasn’t”—Krabbe disease visited her at 3.5 months of age and took her away at the age of 2. “There are no words that capture the vileness of infantile Krabbe disease. Absolutely none,” said Ms. Pike-Langenfeld. 20 years after the tragedy, hope has finally emerged for Ms. Pike-Langenfeld: her home state, Minnesota, has started universal...

The World Health Organization started to emphasize the intersectional of health and urban planning years ago. In 2020, The World Health Organization and UN-Habitat have released a resource book “Integrating Health in Urban and Territorial Planning,” aiming to guide decision makers in the various sectors including public health, urban planning and other related sectors to prioritize human health in urban planning. The sourcebook provides a variety of resources, including frameworks,...

Abstract Grip is an essential hand movement to human function and health. The stronger one’s grip strength (GS), the more stable their grip, and the better they can perform tasks with their hands. Society is in need of a simple and effective hand exercise to strengthen individuals’ GS. One potential solution is grip training with strengtheners. This study investigated the effectiveness of grip training, with resistance from grip strengtheners, in helping improve GS. 24 participants (14 males...

Note: this research article is adapted from a group PowerPoint presentation. I conducted the research along with four other students and primarily edited the presenter notes. The work was finished by June 26, 2024, one day before the Supreme Court made its decision on Moyle v. United States. The original PowerPoint presentation is attached to the article. The References section is also attached. This is one of the scenarios Supreme Court Justices brought up to case advocate Joshua N. Turner...
