Wastewater test could provide early warning of COVID-19

Researchers have developed a new paper device that can be put into wastewater systems to detect COVID-19. The test works by picking up on biomarkers of the virus in feces and urine. The test can help monitor communities most at risk of the virus and help agencies to restrict the movement of the population at risk.

Risk of death from stroke falls by 24%

Between 2000 and 2015, the rate of ischemic strokes decreased by 43%, with the risk of death falling by 24%. Researchers attribute the declines to improved treatment options.

FDA approves Houston Methodist for COVID-19 plasma therapy

On Saturday, the FDA approved Houston Methodist to conduct transfused plasma therapy for the treatment of COVID-19. The plasma will be donated from recovered COVID-19 patients and transfused into those critically ill with the virus. Researchers have already begun recruiting donors in the Houston area who have recovered from coronavirus. The first donor was a patient in the Houston Metropolitan area who has been in good health for two weeks following COVID-19 infection.

Alcohol consumption by fathers before conception could impact brain development

Male alcohol consumption before conception was linked to significant deficits in their offspring's brain development, specifically within the neocortex. For mothers-to-be who drink alcohol, the negative outcomes of prenatal alcohol exposure on fetal brain development can be reduced with choline supplementation.

Hopes of COVID-19 pandemic respite this spring may depend upon what happens indoors

In addition to physical distancing and improved personal hygiene practices, the seasonal moderation of relative humidity indoors could help slow rates of transmission for COVID-19. However, the virus can still be transmitted via contact and close proximity to those infected, regardless of the season, researchers warn.

Experimental AI tool predicts which COVID-19 patients develop respiratory disease

AI model determined three key features that accurately predict subsequent, severe disease in COVID-19 patients. The three features were levels of the liver enzyme ALT, reported myalgia, and hemoglobin levels. Based on these three factors, the AI was able to determine ARDS risk with 80% accuracy.
