NIH Research Matters Genetics of mental disorders, how bacteria clog medical devices, and salt and autoimmune disease
Common Genetic Factors Found in 5 Mental Disorders
Major mental disorders traditionally thought to be distinct share certain genetic glitches, according to a new study. The finding may point to better ways to diagnose and treat these conditions.
Biofilm Streamers Clog Medical Devices
Bacterial communities called biofilms can quickly clog medical devices such as stents and catheters by forming 3-dimensional streamers that block flow. The finding will inform future approaches to prevent these deadly clogs.
