Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis May Raise Kids' Cancer Risk Children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), the most common form of childhood arthritis, may be at higher risk of developing cancer than children who do not have the condition, according to a new study published in the journal Arthritis & Rheumatism.
Genetic mutation implicated in 'broken' heart For decades, researchers have sought a genetic explanation for idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a weakening and enlargement of the heart that puts an estimated 1.6 million Americans at risk of heart failure each year. Because idiopathic DCM occurs as a familial disorder, researchers have long searched for genetic causes, but for most patients the etiology for their heart disease remained ...
Mutations in gigantic gene responsible for common heart muscle disease Mutations in TTN -- the largest gene in the human genome -- cause idiopathic (unknown cause) dilated cardiomyopathy, a common form of heart failure, according to a study by Brigham and Women's Hospital researchers.
'Broken' heart caused by genetic mutation Washington, Feb 16 (ANI)): Scientists have found that gene mutations that shorten the largest human protein are behind idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a familial heart disease.
Biogen Idec to pay up to $562.5M for Stromedix Biogen Idec Inc. said Tuesday it will pay as much as $562.5 million to acquire Stromedix Inc., a biotechnology firm that is developing treatments for conditions like idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
An utterly farcical portrait of 'Marriage,' Russian-style Nikolai Gogol, the 19th-century Russian writer with a strong sense of the ridiculopathy of life - after all, he wrote a story about a nose - would seem to be a perfect fit for the Idiopathic Ridiculopathy Consortium, a theater company specializing in Theater of the Absurd, though Gogol's play Marriage (an utterly improbably occurrence in two acts) isn't really absurdist drama - it's a farce ...
Press Release SMC greenlights first effective and licensed biologic treatment for systemic form of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA).
Juvenile arthritis affected kids are at a high risk of cancer: Study A new study shows that kids with juvenile idiopathic arthritis develop cancer four times more often than children without the disease, but the treatments they receive - including biologic treatments like Enbrel - may not explain their increased risk. If confirmed, researchers say the findings should ease fears that biologic treatments known as TNF inhibitors cause cancer in children and young ...
Cancer rate 4 times higher in children with juvenile arthritis New research reports that incident malignancy among children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is four times higher than in those without the disease. Findings now available in Arthritis & Rheumatism, a journal published by Wiley-Blackwell on behalf of the American College of Rheumatology (ACR), suggest JIA treatment, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors, does not necessarily ...
Does Arthritis Raise Kids' Cancer Risk? Children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), the most common form of childhood arthritis, may be at higher risk of developing cancer than children who do not have the condition, according to a new study published in the journal Arthritis & Rheumatism.
