Hangover cure: Key could be eating fruits, roots and leaves – study finds – Sky News

May 1, 2020 medical

Everyone has their own way of curing hangovers, whether it is painkillers or a fry-up. But new research suggests plants could hold the key to keeping them at bay.

Analysis by scientists at the Institute of Molecular Physiology in Mainz, Germany, found that people who consume a combination of fruits, leaves and roots will be less likely to feel ill.

The headaches and nausea most commonly associated with a hangover had been thought to be caused by a lack of electrolytes in the body, a combination of minerals that help balance acid levels.

But the research showed that people who took on board extra plant extracts and minerals after drinking suffered fewer hangover symptoms than those who just consumed more minerals.

The study, published in the British Medical Journal Nutrition Prevention and Health, suggested a combination of fruits, leaves, and roots reduced head pain and sickness.

A total of 69 healthy 18 to 65-year-olds were given water with a supplement including ginger root, Barbados cherry, magnesium, potassium and other plants and minerals.

They were given the drink 45 minutes before, and immediately after they stopped drinking beer, white wine, or white wine spritzer.

A second group of 76 people were given the supplement minus the plant extracts, and a third group of 69 were given a test placebo.

When questioned afterwards, those who had taken the plant and mineral mix found average headache intensity was 34% less, nausea 42% less, while feelings of indifference fell by an average of 27% and restlessness by 41%.

No significant difference in any symptom was reported by those taking the supplement minus the plant extracts, suggesting that plant extracts were largely responsible for the observed changes, researchers said.

The Evolutionary Reasons Behind Why We Hiccup – The Swaddle

May 1, 2020 medical

Hiccups the annoying, stubborn interrupters we all love to hate have spurred many urban legend-like stories, mostly aimed at making us feel better when they happen. Someones thinking of you, or missing you, is the most common feel-good myth we have devised to explain away the mysterious phenomenon. Familial remedies of how to cure them are also manufactured out of the same imaginations count to seven and hold your breath; pull on your tongue, swallow a teaspoon of sugar. Needless to say, none of these are supported by any conclusive scientific evidence.

Hiccups have baffled scientists for a long time they are ubiquitous but provide no physiological advantage whatsoever. And if hiccups are a vestigial (essentially useless) phenomenon, then why does the evolved modern-day human still have them? What science does know about hiccups, thankfully, provides an equally absurd evolutionary explanation worthy of challenging even the best of imaginations.

Scientists believe the brain signals that facilitate hiccups are left over from a previous evolutionary stage. Hiccups are a recurring phenomenon, examples of which can be found throughout history. Take the tadpole, for instance at a certain point in its development, it starts to transition to a full-grown frog, at which point it has both gills (to breathe water) and lungs (to breathe air). When the tadpole breathes water, it closes the glottis (the opening of the vocal cords) so that the water doesnt go into the lungs, and instead can be passed through the gills. Scientists believe the mechanism in the brain that facilitates this periodic closing of the glottis, called central pattern generator (CPG), is a vestigial remnant from when some aquatic life slowly transitioned to land hundreds of millions of years ago.

Why Sneezing Is So Weird

Today, this CPG functions in a similar way in humans. Hiccups arise out of a complicated motor act, during which the diaphragm and accompanying chest and neck muscles contract suddenly. When the diaphragm is irritated for example, from heartburn, ulcers, too much food or alcohol, it can suddenly contract, pulling downwards and sucking in air. This sudden contraction causes the glottis to snap shut, preventing any air from passing to the lungs, which produces the hic sound. The subsequent burp occurs as a result of the roof of the mouth, and the back of the tongue, moving up, allowing for a huge gasp of trapped air to escape out again. This has led scientists to surmise a CPG must exist in human brains that sends this recurring, periodic signal to control movement of the glottis, much like how actions like coughing and breathing are controlled.

The CPG, however, has evolved to be conditional. Humans are not hiccuping all the time, which led scientists to explore what triggers the CPG. This, however, proved not to be an easy feat. Most research surrounding hiccups can only be conducted among people who have a pathological hiccuping problem, which scientists have traced to an infection in the diaphragm, brain lesions, or issues with any of the nerves phrenic, vagus that carry messages to and fro between the involved neural and muscular systems. In addition to gastric problems, research shows physical trauma (to the head, for example) and tumors can also cause hiccups all of which affect the operations involved in hiccups, from the stomach to the brain and central nervous system.

Another theory for why hiccups happen involve babies in utero. While they get their oxygen from their mothers placenta while in the womb, they have to immediately learn to breathe once theyre born. You have to have a breathing apparatus that is already trained, a professor of gastroenterology at Northwestern University, Dr. Peter Kahrilas, tells Live Science. Hiccups begin in-utero, Kahrilas says, as a training mechanism for babies to learn to breathe, but because the fetuses are surrounded by a sac of blood and fluid, their glottis learns to snap shut to protect their lungs. Newborns also continue to hiccup frequently in the early years of their lives, which neurology and physiology research fellow at the University of London, Lorenzo Fabrizi tells Live Science, is a way for developing brains to form body maps that help babies acquaint themselves with their breathing apparatus.

These, however, are merely logical theories. As neuroscientist Robert Provine tells Vox Essentially, we still dont know what hiccups do, and our cure for them hasnt improved since Plato.

Paying the bills when youve been out of work – Marketplace

April 30, 2020 medical

For many of the more than 30 million Americans who lost their jobs in the past six weeks, tomorrow is a stressful due date: rent day. We caught up with three people we spoke to last month, when they suddenly became out of work, to hear how their financial lives changed in April.

April Oliver

April Oliver of Boseman, Montana, recently graduated with her masters degree in biochemistry and landed her dream job. However, her lab closed down before she was set to start working.

Oliver filed for unemployment but was told she didnt qualify due to a clerical error. However, Oliver received her official job offer because the lab is reopening.

I have to wait another month until my first paycheck, Oliver said. But we feel confident well be able to make bills and credit card payments on time.

Seth Schulman

Seth Schulman, a musician in Chicago, teaches private lessons at a local school and performs on the weekends. He hasnt been able to teach his students since mid-March, when the school closed, and live performances have stopped too. Like Maria Barillas, he applied for unemployment insurance over a month ago. However, he hasnt been able to receive any benefits yet.

Ive got a nice enough landlord to let me pay around half of my rent, Schulman said. But it feels pretty pathetic having to write a really long email or call them and be like, Hey, things really suck. Can you spare me a bone?

Schulman recently heard from the school he works at that he can start virtual lessons with his students, which will help him make ends meet.

Maria Barillas

Maria Barillas works as a server and barista at a Brooklyn restaurant that closed in mid-March due to the coronavirus outbreak. She almost immediately started collecting unemployment insurance, along with the extra $600 that was added because of this crisis.

Its basically given me a full weekly wage, Barillas said. I feel confident that as long as I have unemployment, I can pay for stuff.

Four UTSW Researchers Named to The National Academy of Sciences – D Magazine

April 30, 2020 medical

Four UT Southwestern Medical Center scientists have been elected to the The National Academy of Sciences, one of the top honors for American scientists.

Peer scientists selected Sean Morrison, Kim Orth, Michael Rosen, and Sandra Schmid for their original research and achievements. UT Southwestern now has 25 members of the academy, the most of any institution in Texas.

Election to the prestigious National Academy of Sciences recognizes the pioneering contributions these scientists have made to advance our understanding of basic cellular function and molecular processes with application to addressing a broad spectrum of unmet medical needs including cancer and treatments for bacterial infections, said Dr. Daniel K. Podolsky, President of UT Southwestern Medical Center via release. Their election enriches the National Academy of Sciences efforts to provide data and advice on the nations most critical issues in science, health, and medicine.

Morrison is the Director of the Childrens Medical Center Research Institute (CRI) at UT Southwestern and Professor of Pediatrics and has worked in the fields of stem cell biology and cancer, and has created new methods to purify stem cells and allow them to persist and regenerate after injury. This recognizes, first and foremost, the work of many talented people over the years in my lab, most of whom have now gone on to their own laboratories at UT Southwestern and other institutions. Many of the key insights for the important discoveries that were made came from them so this really recognizes their work. Id also like to acknowledge all my colleagues, all of you at UT Southwestern and at Childrens Health, for the incredible environment that you created for science, Morrison said via release.

Orth is a Professor of Molecular Biology and Biochemistry and has discovered biochemical mechanisms behind many bacterial infections, revealing how pathogens use host cells for their own benefit. I want to thank you all for this wonderful celebration, even though we have to Zoom . Thanks to this amazing institution, UT Southwestern, the wonderful administration including Drs. (Daniel) Podolsky and (David) Russell and the other administrators and staff. As (Chair of Molecular Biology) Eric Olson said, I have moved up the ranks here, starting as a technician, to a student, a postdoc, and now Professor, Orth said via release. And this path has driven my success. Another major key to my success is all of the talented people that have worked in my lab and my mentors, friends, collaborators, and, of course, my family.

Rosen is the Chair of Biophysics and Professor in the Cecil H. and Ida Green Comprehensive Center for Molecular, Computational, and Systems Biology, and investigates how cells compartmentalize processes without the use of membranes. When we began our work on phase separation about a decade ago, it really was not obvious at all whether this was going to be some weird, esoteric little thing that a few proteins did or (if) it was going to become a more general principle in biology. So it wasa tremendous risk that many of us took in making a move in this new direction. More than anything, I want to thank the various people whojoined me in taking this great risk a decade ago that I think has proved to be very much worthwhile, Rosen said via release.

Schmid is the Professor and Chair of Cell Biology and is recognized for her work on endocytosis, or how cells absorb nutrients and other molecules, including the major pathway for uptake within the cell. Ive been lucky to start and end my academic career at two unique institutions, Schmid said via release. As a PhD student in the early 80s, I was supported and challenged by my peers and faculty in the Biochemistry department at Stanford to ask important questions and do the most impactful research. Over decades, the leadership at UT Southwestern has inspired, supported and celebrated the very best research creating a collegial culture that breeds success.

This important recognition by their peers reflects the breadth and quality of research underway at UT Southwestern, and serves as inspiration for new generations of trainees and scientists to carry on the tradition of discovery that is the hallmark of distinguished academic medical centers, said Dr. W. P. Andrew Lee., Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs, Provost and Dean of UT Southwestern Medical School via release.

Outsmarting cancer: Innovative treatments and diagnostics offer new hope – Stanford Medical Center Report

April 30, 2020 medical

Researchers at Stanford Medicine are thinking up new ways to tackle one of the world's most daunting diseases: cancer.

My colleague Krista Conger and I tag-teamed an article in the new issue of Stanford Medicine magazine that features some of the latest and most innovative tactics Stanford researchers are pursuing to detect cancer earlier and stop the disease in its tracks.

More than a dozen scientists told us about the impressive research that's helping patients survive what was once a death sentence.

"In biomedicine, we're faced all the time with intractable problems, and cancer is one of these problems that is very difficult to solve," biochemistry professorSteven Artandi, MD, PhD, the Laurie Kraus Lacob Director of theStanford Cancer Institute, told us. "Often, these problems are solved by thinking about them in a completely different perspective, and that's the kind of attitude and approach that we foster at Stanford."

In this feature, we highlighted a handful of new diagnostics Stanford researchers are developing, such as smart toilets to detect signs of cancer from stool and urine. We also described several treatments that are in clinical trials or under development.

In the lab of of Garry Nolan, PhD, for instance, scientists are using a powerful and complex cell analysis technique called multiplexed ion beam imaging to detect and measure levels of certain molecules, including those that flag cancer. The research could reveal a new, deeper understanding of cancer at a molecular level.

Among the treatments featured in the article is one some people call a "cancer vaccine," a breakthrough from the lab of oncologist Ronald Levy, MD, who has dedicated his career to fighting blood cancers. Unlike a traditional vaccination, which prevents disease before it starts, this one bolsters the body's ability to battle disease that already has a foothold.

Levy injects tumors with an agent that boosts activity of immune cells called T cells, after the T cells have infiltrated the cancer and begun to fight it.

Levy and his colleagues have shown that their strategy could eliminate established human tumors in mice not only at the site of injection, but also at distant sites throughout the body.
