Childhood Kidney Cancer Arises from Altered Normal Tissue

 While kidney cancer in children is rare, the most common type is Wilms tumor, which mostly affects children under the age of five. Most cases of Wilms tumor can be cured through surgery to remove the afflicted kidney in combination with chemotherapy and possibly radiotherapy. More...

Chronic Comorbidities Are Prevalent Among People with Chagas Disease

 Chagas disease, also known as American trypanosomiasis, is a tropical parasitic disease caused by the protist Trypanosoma cruzi. It is spread mostly by insects known as Triatominae, or "kissing bugs". The symptoms change over the course of the infection. More...

Pulmonary Embolism Diagnosed by Improved Interpretation of Blood Tests

 Pulmonary embolism is the sudden blockage of a major blood vessel (artery) in the lung, usually by a blood clot. In most cases, the clots are small and are not deadly, but they can damage the lung and if the clot is large and stops blood flow to the lung, it can be deadly. More...

Genetic Architectures of Schizophrenia Compared in Different Populations

 While the common genetic variants contributing to schizophrenia in East Asian individuals appear to broadly resemble those found in Europeans, polygenic risk scores (PRS) for the condition cannot necessarily be transferred from one population to the next. More...

Rare Genetic Variants Associated with Sudden Cardiac Death

 A recent study has assessed the prevalence of rare pathogenic variants in sudden cardiac death cases versus controls, and the prevalence and clinical importance of such mutations in an asymptomatic adult population. More...

New Blood Test Marks Progress in Battle Against Sepsis

 Sepsis is a serious condition in which the immune system launches an overwhelming response to infection. The cause of the infection can be any type of microbe, including fungi, bacteria, and viruses, but usually, it is bacteria. More...
