Children living in poverty before the first anniversary at increased risk of asthma and other chronic diseases later in life, according to a comparative study of children in the United Kingdom (England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland) and Quebec Canada. Published in the journal Pediatrics, the study was conducted by researchers at the University of Montreal in Canada and the University of Warwick in the UK.

“We found that chronic poverty, compared with transient poverty is more harmful to the health of children. In fact, chronically poor children are more prone to asthma attacks,” said lead author Beatrice Nikiema, a researcher at the Department of the University of Montreal Preventive and Social Medicine.

The survey also found a link between poverty and the risk of experiencing one of the following chronic diseases: allergies, heart disease, bronchitis, kidney disease, mental retardation, epilepsy, cerebral palsy or any other health problem that has lasted six months or more. Data were collected through interviews with parents of 14,556 children who participated in the British Cohort Study Millennium (at least nine months and 36 months) and 1950 children who participated in the Longitudinal Study of Child Development (five months and 41 months).

The reduction or no fill “for ECG triggered coronary CT angiography (CTA) results in a substantial reduction in radiation doses without compromising image quality and performance, according to a study published in the April edition in American Journal of Radiology. ECG triggered coronary CTA is a common, minimally invasive procedure used to evaluate blockages in the coronary arteries.

“During ECG-triggered coronary CTA, there is a mandatory minimum that the scanner should be the course of each heartbeat, and there is usually an extension was added before and after what is called” filler, “said Troy LaBounty , MD, lead study author. ” By reducing or eliminating the filler that shorten the scanning time and reduce the dose of radiation, “LaBounty said.

The study was conducted at three sites, including Weill Cornell Medical College in New York, NY Radiology Associates Fairfax in Fairfax, Virginia and the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. We included 886 patients who underwent ECG-triggered coronary CTA with a time of filling 0, 1-99, 100-150 or milliseconds.

Canadian researchers have discovered a previously hidden channel to attack leukemia and other cancer cells, according to a new study published in the Journal of Biological Chemistry. The results of the University of Montreal, Maisonneuve-Rosemont Hospital and Laval University may change doctors treat cancer patients.

“We found a door, which is present in all human beings, which enables anti-cancer agents such as bleomycin to enter the body so they can reach and attack the leukemia cells,” says lead author Dindial Ramotar , a professor at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Montreal and a research affiliate at the Maisonneuve-Rosemont.

Dr. Ramotar has begun to test his theory ten years ago with the help of yeast, which is remarkably similar to human cells. “Our discovery has increased in this model system for human cells and will soon come to bed due to the therapy of translation, he said.” We are about to test patients. ”
