Welcome to pocket-size medicine. The revolution in microelectronics that gave us cellular phones and palmtop computers now allows doctors like Bayne to take their healing arts out of the hospital and onto the road. The result: fully functional EKG machines no bigger than a box of chocolates; blood-sample analyzers no larger than a princess phone; portable ultrasound machines that fit in the trunk of a car. There is even a hand-held mri scanner in the works that is about the size and shape of a catcher's mitt. And last week the U.S. Food and Drug Administration...
...problem is that the altered viruses do not always seek out the target cells and sometimes insert themselves in the wrong place in the cellular DNA. Then too, once in place, the new genes sometimes fail to express themselves. "There are still a few walls to get over," Anderson concedes. He points out that in the initial trial, viruses used for cystic fibrosis, for example, produced an inflammatory response: "So the trials were halted, and another generation of viral vectors was developed. Now we're going to restart the clinical trials with these new-generation vectors," which he thinks will...
...other hand, scientists hypothesize, aging takes place at the cellular level, and if cells did not grow old, biological aging might be slowed. But what drives the process? Why do some cells accumulate dysfunction with time? And can that dysfunction be prevented or slowed? Before those questions can be answered, cautions Baylor professor Olivia Pereira-Smith, who researches the genetics of aging, "we have to find the genes first...
