Survey finds physicians are comfortable prescribing Humira biosimilars if treatments are interchangeable
Most specialist physicians would be comfortable prescribing biosimilar versions of adalimumab (Humira), giving a boost to the companies seeking to capitalize on its loss of exclusivity. Read More
Blood biomarker facilitates vascular dementia diagnosis
A National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded consortium has found that measuring a key blood molecule may identify the degree to which impaired blood flow to a patient’s brain contributes to dementia. Read More
Heart problems more likely among long COVID patients in comprehensive study
Individuals with long COVID were found to have more than double the risk of developing new cardiovascular symptoms. The results of a comprehensive study examining cardiovascular complications from long COVID will be presented at the American College of Cardiology Together with the World Congress of Cardiology (ACC.23/WCC) conference. The event, marking the ACC’s 72nd Annual Scientific Session, will take place March 4-6, both online and in New Orleans. Read More

Toxic protein linked to both muscular dystrophy and arhinia
National Institutes of Health (NIH) researchers and collaborators have found that DUX4, a toxic protein made by the body, may be responsible for two very different rare genetic disorders. The study, published on Friday in Science Advances, may eventually lead to therapies that can help people with a type of muscular dystrophy, as well as those with a facial malformation called congenital arhinia.
