Fighting Parasitic Flatworms: A New Hope in Medical Research
Parasitic flatworms known, as flukes or trematodes, are responsible for some of the most debilitating neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) affecting billions of people worldwide. Schistosomiasis, caused by blood flukes, is a significant health risk in many tropical regions.
The need for more effective treatments and a growing resistance to currently available drugs has pushed researchers to find new solutions.
In a groundbreaking study, MCW’s Dr. Jonathan S. Marchant and his team identified a new class of compounds called benzamidoquinazolinones (BZQs) that show promise as broad-spectrum treatments for trematode infections in humans.

    Hello doctor EVANS, About your video on staging of pancreatic cancer. Wanted to know ,if there is possibility of cancer cells (stage where cells are > 180* encasing the blood vessels) likely stage- localised advanced type B) leave the blood vessels and provides an opportunity for surgery and thereafter complete removal of cancerous cells. Hoping for a positive reply.

    Doc, what about the impact of the whole process of the whipped surgery on the gut micro biome? My father in law has been through whipple and can’t maintain weight even with enzymes. My theory is between the surgery, chemo, radiation, and antibiotics this has destroyed his micro biome. His body is not processing food, it just runs right through him - he’s malnutritioned and now at a last resort and looking at TPN. My thought is to treat with a quality probiotic to build up the digestive tract - If anyone out there has tried this please let us know the outcome.

    Innovation must follow fundamental science. Pattern recognition will never lead to innovation. IQ test = all based on pattern recognition. In real life, that leads to NO where. For example, solving global warming and global drought = following fundamental science. Everyone knows evaporation process will cool things down. All physicists and chemists know salt water (water with ions) have trouble evaporating. That is why when there is a drought, the freshwater lakes are shrinking in size + little clouds in the sky. If all water (salt or fresh) evaporate at the same rate, then the sky would be full of clouds -> rain -> NO drought. Two fundamental science principles added together = break through innovation -> lower earth's temperature, sky full of clouds from water evaporation, deserts turn green. For example, Saudi Arabia, Utah, Texas, etc. all turning green -> saving planet earth, created trillions, trillions, trillions, trillions of dollars of wealth. Innovation = difficult = lots of logic and reasoning. That is why innovation = valuable. They say that CO2 = insulator, traps heat, but when you use logic and reasoning, you will know that heat, aka electromagnetic field is conducted by elections. So for wood, concrete, metal, metal has the highest density of elections, thus heaviest due to attraction with planet earth with high matter density -> metal with highest electron density conducts heat the most. So technically CO2 has electrons, it conducts heat. Higher CO2 density -> higher electrons density, more heat is conducted. Nothing traps heat. They just conduct heat at different rate due to electron density. Those who say CO2 traps heat -> global warming + global drought = 100% imagination, ZERO fundamental science. So innovation = based on fundamental science ONLY + tons of logic and reasoning involved -> valuable.

I'm thinking ahead of time when in advancements in science made able intelligent beings to mobilize air molecules, water molecules or create a bonds structures of that from oxygen and hydrogen bond structures to be attached by air and water molecules in mid air while mobilizing communication fibered waves to plugged in to something creating sleepers or stationary armies of sculptured image like made of minerals deposits, rocks and tree plants utilizing the components and properties inherent to them such as rock dust particles, carbons sourced from carbon dated rocks and trees only as inherent and properties of them and combination mix of elements atomic mass and numbers which are of fit of them, compounds mobilization attachments to it's compatibles and we're done by painting an area with enclosed workable area energies for fast phase time manipulation in that area only for instant result.
