Predicting falls, resetting immune systems and playing pickleball safely
Cleveland Clinic identified two early warning signs for a first Parkinson’s fall, while Roswell Park’s CAR T trials are reporting major improvement in autoimmune patients.
- Researchers at the Cleveland Clinic Neurological Institute developed a model to predict the first fall in Parkinson's patients, addressing a major complication affecting nearly one million Americans.
- Two key risk factors drive fall risk: slowed brain processing speed and reduced walking speed, with patients moving slower than 1.1 meters per second facing higher fall likelihood.
- Separately, researchers at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center in Buffalo are adapting CAR T-cell therapy for autoimmune diseases, which affect about 80 million Americans, with early trials showing promise.
- The Cleveland Clinic also provides guidance on preventing pickleball injuries, noting that ligament sprains are common in the rapidly growing sport and emphasizing proper form reduces injury risk.
- Patients with severe autoimmune conditions should consult health providers about clinical trials, as early results suggest CAR T-cell therapy may offer significant improvement or full symptom reversal.
