Deathly Ill Coronavirus Patients Could Be Saved By Heart Attack And Stroke Drug
BOSTON (CBS) — TPA is a drug that is used to help stroke and heart attack victims. It works by breaking up or busting blood clots. Doctors at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center are now using it in a clinical trial on gravely ill coronavirus patients.
“There’s a lot of very small blood clots accumulating in the lungs of these patients,” said Dr. Christopher Barrett. “And that seems to be at least contributory, if not the predominant reason, that their respiratory failure is so bad.”
Dr. Barrett says TPA could help patients recover faster, free up ventilators and even prevent people from...

Act F.A.S.T. and Save a Life!
Yes, I'm getting older! My knees hurt for no reason at times and my joints pop and crack like an old house settling. Yet I continue to push through by working out regularly, eating healthy, and hoping to slow down Father Time and ignore my athletic mortality. Many of my physician colleagues admit to neglecting their health due to the busy lives they lead, but I try my best to practice what I preach. Stressing the importance of healthy eating, being physically active, taking medication as prescribed and regular follow ups with a physician is more than just a reflex recommendation to my patients. It is an integral part of my...

How John Fetterman Came Out of the Darkness
When he looks back on the past year—a year in which he nearly died, became a U.S. Senator, and nearly died again—it is the debate that John Fetterman identifies as the breaking point.
“The debate lit the mitch,” he says, then shakes his head in frustration and tries again. The right word is there in his brain, but he struggles to get it out. “Excuse me, that should be lit the mitch—” He stops and tries again. “Lit the match,” he says finally.
Oct. 25, 2022: the date is lodged in his mind. “I knew I had to do it,” he tells me. “I knew that the vote...

Observing the Damaged Brain for Clues About Dreaming
Thanks to advanced and digital technologies, a close study of the dreaming brain is possible. Dream researchers use neural-imaging tools range from EEG to PET scan to MRI to observe the brain's activity while dreaming. In addition to observing healthy brain activity, scientists also use cases of brain injury and illness as a way to learn about the brain mechanics of dreaming.
This approach -- of learning about the functions of the brain through abnormalities, injury, or illness -- is by no means just confined to the study of dreams. A great deal of what we know about the mechanics of the brain in general has come from ob...
