Chronic Immune Thrombocytopenia (chronic ITP) is an autoimmune disorder in which patients produce antiplatelet autoantibodies and specialized white blood cells that destroy their blood platelets and, in some cases, damage their megakaryocytes, causing a decrease in platelet production. The global chronic immune thrombocytopenia market size was worth $ XX billion in 2019 and is forecasted to reach $ XX billion by 2026, at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period (2019-2026).

"An increase in brain inflammation, such as that caused by age, diabetes and obesity, is known to increase risk for developing Alzheimer's disease. Now scientists at UK's Southampton University are about to start a three-year study, using brain tissue generously donated by people who died with Alzheimer's disease, to see if inflammation caused by infections such as those of the urinary tract or chest, also speeds up progress of the disease." - medical news today In an announcement released on Wednesday, study leader Delphine Boche, Lecturer in Clinical Neurosciences at Southampton, says: "Many of the known risk factors for Alzheimer's, like age, obesity and diabetes, increase inflammation in the brain and we think that infections could be another risk factor." "There is already evidence that the immune system is on high alert in people with Alzheimer's and we think that an extra trigger, like an infection, could tip the balance and make immune cells switch from being protective to harmful," she adds. Alzheimer's Research UK has already put £300,000 into the project. The money is part of the charity's £20m investment in leading dementia research in the UK. The study started in January 2013, and will add to the growing pile of evidence that shows how the immune system is implicated in Alzheimer's disease. The Southampton team believes that in Alzheimer's, the immune system goes beyond its role as protector of the body and starts causing damage, like it does in an autoimmune disease. For their study, Boche and colleagues will use brain tissue generously donated by people who had Alzheimer's disease when they died. With reference to donors' medical records, the researchers will compare the brains of those who had infections when they died with those who did not. They will be particularly interested in immune cells known as "microglia", which go around mopping up cellular debris. They will use fluorescent tags to label the cells in the brain, and look

Anti-aging without Surgery - Afraid to age but more afraid of knives and undergo surgery? We always look for the best things and best ways on how to avoid looking old. Have you ever wonder how to reclaim your youth while you do not have to go under the knife? For the millions of people that have sun spots and scars on the surface of their skin that become more prevalent with age, Zapiach said laser technology has vastly improved over the past decade, with patients seeing full results in about three months. Patients looking to turn back the hands of time have a non-invasive option that was most commonly associated with pregnancy: ultrasound unlike before when face lifts used to be the way to go for patients looking to tighten up the saggy, loosening of the facial skin that comes with age. All of us will age and as a part of aging process more and more physical features will vanish along the way. We lose volume in places like our eye sockets, cheeks and jaw line. The doctor has the solution for that, Fillers and injectables, although he said that those are temporary. It will last anywhere from six months to a year but will on depend on the one you choose. A non-invasive procedure that uses a patient's own fat is permanent though. But the doctor warned that not everyone is a candidate for non-invasive procedures. Dr. Zapiach also cautioned that patients with advanced aging may have to resort to surgical options. "Ultherapy actually has an indication to lift and tighten that area . . . as well as the neck and also the eyebrows," said Zapiach. "We'll see results in the cheeks that it will lift and tighten the cheeks and jowls as well." Cigarette Smoking is Dangerous to your Health! - Smoking effects on the human body are destructive and widespread. The ingredients in cigarette affect everything from the internal functioning of the organs and target the efficiency of the body's immune system. Smoking harms nearly every organ of the body.

Market Overview: Skin substitutes are natural, synthetic or biosynthetic materials, used to cover large wounds to restore at least some of the functions of the skin. Skin substitutes provides temporary or permanent wound closure and protect the wound from infection, further damage and water loss, and reduce pain. They also facilitate the growth of the normal skin over the wound. Skin substitutes provide a permanent solution and are used in the treatment of conditions like burns, trauma wounds, diabetes or venous ulcers, where skin grafts may not be possible. Market Dynamics: Rising chronic skin diseases is expected to drive the skin substitutes market. For instance, according to the global burden of disease study 2013, Skin conditions contributed around 1.79% to the global disease burden. According to the World Health Organization, about 132,000 melanoma skin cancers occur each year worldwide. Thus, the rising chronic diseases is increasing the demand for skin substitutes in the forecast period. Rising prevalence of diabetes is expected to boost the market. This is owing to the risk of developing a diabetic foot ulcer over the period of time in diabetic patients. For instance, WHO has reported that the incidence of diabetes for all age-groups worldwide was estimated to be 2.8% in 2000 and 4.4% in 2030. The total number of people with diabetes is anticipated to rise from 171 million in 2000 to 366 million in 2030. Thus, as a consequence, the prevalence of diabetes related complications are expected to increase over the forecast period. There are several limitations to the commercially available skin substitutes, like reduced vascularization, poor mechanical integrity, failure to integrate, scarring, and immune rejection. Market Segmentation: Rise in preference for acellular skin substitutes to implant-based skin surgery is expected to drive the growth of the skin substitutes market. For instance, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons in 2012, reported that
