Measurement of human blood viscosity a using Falling Needle Rheometer and the correlation to the Modified Herschel-Bulkley model equation

Heliyon, 2020
We measured the blood viscosity of 25 male and 25 female healthy people (total 50) using a compact-sized falling needle viscometer (Falling Needle Rheometer) capable of highly accurate measurements. Based on the analysis of the flow characteristics, most

Functionally impaired plasmacytoid dendritic cells and non-haematopoietic sources of type I interferon characterize human autoimmunity

Nature Communications, 2020
Autoimmune connective tissue diseases arise in a stepwise fashion from asymptomatic preclinical autoimmunity. Type I interferons have a crucial role in the progression to established autoimmune diseases.

Impact of the gut microbiota and associated metabolites on cardiometabolic traits, chronic diseases and human longevity: a Mendelian randomization study

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2023
Features of the gut microbiota have been associated with several chronic diseases and longevity in preclinical models as well as in observational studies. Whether these relations underlie causal effects in humans remains to be established.
