Transfusions of younger blood may improve the health of older patients, and a new trial is testing out the ability of this blood to treat Parkinson's. Researchers at Stanford University have been giving older mice injections of blood from younger ones. Remarkably - and as if taken from the pages of a vampire novel - the new blood turned back the clock on the older mice's cognitive declines. Now, one of those researchers has co-founded a new company that is set to try giving older humans with Parkinson's injections of certain components from younger people's blood. Ultimately, the firm aims to develop a synthetic version of whichever of the thousands of possible components of blood has this fountain-of-youth effect, as the supply of young people willing to donate their blood is very much limited.

People with A, B, or AB blood types face an ‘elevated risk’ of suffering a heart attack or chest pain when faced with high levels of air pollution

A study of 14 years of patient data discovered that the risk of a heart attack or chest pain doubled for people of type A, B, or AB blood when pollution hits high levels. In comparison, the risk rose by 40 percent for those with type O, according to researchers from the Intermountain Medical Center Heart Institute in Utah, US.
