New drug prevents flu-related inflammation and lung damage
Infection with the influenza virus leads to lung injury through inflammation over-activation that causes collateral damage to cells required for breathing. Such damage can be life-threatening, but scientists have a new preventative treatment. A team from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, University of Houston, Tufts University School of Medicine and Fox Chase Cancer Center created a drug that can prevent flu-induced lung injury. In a mouse model, the drug achieves a novel balance between shutting down runaway inflammation and allowing the immune system to stop the virus. (Source: World Pharma News)

AUSTIN -- Harmonic motion imaging can track mechanical property changes of breast tumors in response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, a study presented April 9 at UltraCon found.
In his presentation, Yangpei Liu from Columbia University in New York City discussed findings from his team’s study, which showed that harmonic motion imaging could be a predictor of early treatment response.
“Harmonic motion imaging-derives changes in tumor mechanical properties are more robust in early complete pathologic response prediction than tumor sizes,” Liu said.Yangpei Liu from Columbia University in Ney York City discussed findings ...
