CAR-T Therapy for Autoimmune Diseases |
In 2020, the groundbreaking cancer treatment CAR-T therapy was adapted to treat a severe case of lupus where traditional treatments had failed. And it worked on both the initial patient and multiple others since. This success sparked the exploration of CAR-T therapy for autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis and scleroderma. Early results are promising, with most patients responding well and experiencing few side effects. Long-term outcomes and broader applicability remain uncertain as researchers carefully expand trials.

How Often Should You Wash Your Bedding?
|
If you’re like the average American, you wash your sheets once every 3 weeks or so—some two weeks too late. Experts recommend washing your bedding weekly to prevent the buildup of dirt, sweat, and oil that fosters bacteria and dust mites, potentially leading to skin irritations, allergic reactions, or respiratory issues. To keep your bed cleaner for longer, take evening showers,
keep your bedroom cool, and let your sheets air out for at least 30 minutes before making the bed when you get up.

The Power of Radical Generosity |
There's a good chance you've heard of it, but you may be wondering: "What is GivingTuesday?"
GivingTuesday started with the questions:
Could a day be created that celebrates giving back, rather than consuming?
Could a ritual be created leveraging the power of digital hyper-connectivity to make generosity go viral?
The answer undoubtedly is YES!
Born in 2012, GivingTuesday is a radical generosity movement unleashing the power of people to transform communities around the world, inspiring millions to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity. GivingTuesday strategically falls on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving in response to the overwhelming consumerism of Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Harness the power of commUNITY by joining Debriefing the Front Lines 4th annual campaign as we rally to raise $6,000 and provide 120 scholarship-based debriefing sessions to nurses in need.
