The most sensitive blood test to identify many types of cancer

Image
CAMBRIDGE:  A new and most sensitive blood test has been developed to identify cancer, developed by scientists at the University of Cambridge. Thanks to this, blood test can be done even by sitting at home with a needle. This test can also be used to find out if the cancer has resurfaced or re-attacked. The test finds out the personal genetic data of the patient's cancerous abscess. Based on this, thousands of different types of components can be tested for the release of cancerous tumors from DNA and floating in the blood. This technology is so sensitive that it can detect only one type of change in DNA. Scientists insist that this way anyone can be warned of the same cancer attack again. The study was conducted by Nizan Rosenfeld and colleagues at the Cambridge University Cancer Institute. Experts say that thanks to this, a (personalized) or personalized test can be made for each person to see what level of cancer is in the body or whether there are signs of its rec

Helpful robotic clothing for stroke patients

TEXAS: Stroke and paralysis patients all over the world, including Pakistan, lose their limbs very fast. These include hand movements and grips, but even after rehabilitation and physiotherapy, the functions of the upper torso are not restored. Physiotherapists and other staff help restore the patient's arm and hand movements, and this is done so that the brain can 'recall' lost functions and the patient can return to normal. But this process takes a lot of patience and time. This requires a great deal of effort on the part of the patient himself. However, now the Harmony SHR robotic clothing can be very helpful in this situation. The entire robotic system was developed by Harmony Bionics, a firm based in Austin, Texas. External robotic structures or exoskeletons are used while the patient is sitting. In this condition it is gently attached to the top and bottom of the arm where the whole system handles the weight of the arm. In the next step, the robot's arms
