| Once hospitalized, Black patients with COVID-19 have lower risk of death than white, study finds Posted: 04 Dec 2020 12:54 PM PST While multiple research studies show that Black and Hispanic patients are more likely to test positive for COVID-19, researchers found that once hospitalized, Black patients (after controlling for other serious health conditions and neighborhood income) were less likely to have severe illness, die, or be discharged to hospice compared to White patients. |
| Neighborhood deprivation and COVID in Louisiana Posted: 04 Dec 2020 10:13 AM PST A new study to investigate the role of neighborhood deprivation on COVID-19 in Louisiana has found that the more a neighborhood is deprived, the higher the risk for cases of COVID-19. |
| New review confirms disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on Black, Hispanic populations Posted: 03 Dec 2020 02:34 PM PST Black and Hispanic populations are disproportionately affected by COVID-19, according to a systematic review published this week. The disparities were likely related to minority populations being at higher risk of exposure to the coronavirus as opposed to underlying health conditions or other factors, according to the review. |
| Chicago neighborhoods with barriers to social distancing had higher COVID-19 death rates Posted: 03 Dec 2020 11:41 AM PST New research has found that Chicago neighborhoods with barriers to social distancing, including limited access to broadband internet and low rates of health insurance, had more COVID-19 deaths in spring 2020. |
| Better diabetes treatment: New insulin molecule can self-regulate blood sugar Posted: 03 Dec 2020 09:22 AM PST Researchers have developed a new insulin molecule that will make blood sugar regulation both easier and safer for those with type 1 diabetes. |
| Researchers developed a sequence analysis pipeline for virus discovery Posted: 03 Dec 2020 09:22 AM PST A novel bioinformatics pipeline identifies both previously known and novel viruses. |
| Significant reason older adults are at greater risk of heart attack Posted: 03 Dec 2020 09:22 AM PST A team of surgeons has found an insufficient level of the protein Sesn2 is the reason older individuals are at greater risk of heart attack, which indicates stabilizing the protein could be the answer to maintaining a healthy heart. |
| Cooling electronics efficiently with graphene-enhanced heat pipes Posted: 03 Dec 2020 08:32 AM PST Researchers have found that graphene-based heat pipes can help solve the problems of cooling electronics and power systems used in avionics, data centres, and other power electronics. |
| New software cuts time, cost of gene sequencing Posted: 03 Dec 2020 08:32 AM PST Researchers have developed a new software that could revolutionize how DNA is sequenced, making it far faster and less expensive to map anything from yeast genomes to cancer genes. |
| Pilot whale study reveals copycat calls to outsmart predators Posted: 03 Dec 2020 08:32 AM PST New research has found southern Australian long-finned pilot whales are able to mimic the calls of its natural predator and food rival - the killer whale, as a possible ploy to outsmart it. |
