Winter "Tripledemic"?: Flu, RSV, and Covid, 3 Deaths Reported - Asiana Times

Respiratory viruses RSV including bronchiolitis and the flu are circulating at high rates for the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic, increasing worries of co-infection. The respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), the primary cause of bronchiolitis, the flu virus, and rhinovirus all have very high incidences this winter. Several additional respiratory viruses are spreading with SARS-CoV-2 for the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic began in France back in March 2020, and at incredibly high levels. The pandemic and a hospital crisis have already seriously upset the healthcare system, and this triple catastrophe threatens to make matters worse. According to Anne-Claude…

Enzyme that protects against viruses Fuels cancer evolution: Research - Asiana Times

An Enzyme that defends human cells from viruses can encourage the emergence of more malignant cancers by generating a variety of alterations in cancer cells. In cancer genomes, mutagenic mechanisms leave distinctive marks. Using a preclinical model to study the enzyme’s role in promoting bladder cancer, the researchers found that it significantly boosted the frequency of mutations in tumor cells, increasing the genetic diversity of bladder tumors and hastening death. These enzymes are dangerous by nature, thus safeguards must be put in place to prevent them from damaging cellular DNA. But starting around a decade ago, researchers employing fresh DNA-sequencing…

BF.7 Subvariant of COVID May Evolve To Attack The Brain - Asiana Times

The Omicron subvariant BF.7 may alter how COVID-19 assaults the human body, moving from infecting respiratory systems to increasingly attacking the brain. BF.7 mutation of COVID-19 is thought to be responsible for the current increase in cases in China. According to a media report, experts believe the coronavirus subvariant that is rapidly increasing in China may be developing to attack the brain. This isn’t the first time BF.7 has been in the spotlight; back in October, it began to displace the main variations in the US and many other European nations. BF.7, the new COVID Subvariant When viruses change, they…

Long COVID: Are mono virus or fat cells playing a role? - Asiana Times

Numerous symptoms of long COVID have been reported by millions of people around the world, including fatigue, lung issues, brain fog, and other neurological symptoms. Long COVID or long-haul COVID is a health condition that develops after a typical COVID-19 recovery. Worldwide, millions of people who have long-term COVID report a variety of symptoms, including fatigue, lung issues, brain fog, and other neurological symptoms. However, recent data show that it has contributed to more than 3,500 US deaths, despite the fact that evidence indicates most recover significantly within a year. The three women are recognized for describing, naming, and aiding…

<strong>China Stops Revealing Daily COVID Report Amidst The Fresh Surge</strong> - Asiana Times

The recent official count of new infections in China was less than 5,000, but some areas believe up to a million people are contracting the virus daily. The three-year effort by China’s central health authority to stop publishing daily Covid-19 data has been criticized for vastly underreporting the country’s current infection surge. Amidst an uptick in infections, China’s National Health Commission announced that it will stop publishing national daily COVID-19 case figures, according to the Global Times. The Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention will instead publish pertinent Covid data for research and reference. China COVID Outbreak Early in…

Some of the issues seen in long COVID patients were also experienced by individuals who had a common cold, the flu, or viral pneumonia. The largest public health emergency of the 21st century is the COVID-19 pandemic. Patients and society are confronted by the long-term health issues linked to COVID-19, also known as long COVID, in addition to the acute symptoms upon infection. It’s crucial for people to be informed of recent developments and take proactive measures with regard to Long COVID in order to manage it effectively. Long COVID SARS-CoV-2, a single-stranded RNA coronavirus that causes severe acute respiratory…

Alzheimer's disease association with traumatic brain injury, PTSD

Clinically diagnosed Alzheimer’s disease (AD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and traumatic brain injury (TBI) are linked to epidemiological research. Medical professionals have never before investigated the effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and genetic risk factors in a sizable cohort. Earlier researchers find that there is no connection between post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and/or traumatic brain injury (TBI) and elevated levels of biomarkers associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) among veterans. Despite the fact that veterans who had TBI, PTSD, or both exhibited worse cognitive states, earlier experts think it is due to other concomitant diseases. Brain…

Food Dye

Prolonged use of the food dye Allura Red may increase the chance of developing IBDs, Crohn’s disease, and ulcerative colitis. Researcher Waliul Khan of McMaster University observed that prolonged exposure to Allura Red AC damages gut health and causes inflammation in experimental animals with IBD. Small molecules included in synthetic dyes have the ability to bind to proteins in our bodies. Since the immune system struggles to defend the body against them, this might create immune system disturbances. Allura Red is also tainted with recognized cancer-causing agents, including benzidine, 4-aminobiphenyl, and 4-aminoazobenzene. Food dye and Gut Health The intestinal hormone…

Mediterranean Diet is Beneficial for Fertility: Research - Asiana Times

Researchers found that the anti-inflammatory characteristics of a Mediterranean diet can increase a couple’s chances of conceiving. What is Mediterranean diet? The tremendous health advantages of the fruit, vegetable, and legume-based Mediterranean diet have long been recognized. It’s a plant-based diet and includes regional cuisines and culinary techniques. The basis of the diet is plant-based foods such as whole grains, nuts, seeds, herbs, and spices. In moderation, dairy products, poultry, fish, and other seafood are acceptable. Sweets and red meat are only seldom consumed. Benefits Currently, research suggests it might also aid in the treatment of infertility and is a…
