Life-Saving Covid Treatment

What is a monoclonal antibody and how does it work?

The body’s immune system generates antibodies — specific protein molecules — as a defense mechanism against unfamiliar molecules, called antigens. Molecules from pathogens like bacteria and viruses can act as antigens, prompting the production of antibodies that bind to antigens. This tells specialized cells of the immune system to kill the invading pathogen. Monoclonal antibodies work specifically against a particular portion on an antigen called the epitope, thereby exerting very targeted action.

The Role of Antigens & Antibodies in Vaccinations

Vaccines contain antigens which stimulate the B lymphocytes of the immune system to respond by producing plasma cells which secrete disease specific antibodies.

Some of the B cells become memory B cells, which will recognize future exposure to the disease. This results in a faster and more intense production of antibodies, which effectively work to eliminate the disease by binding to the antigens.

What is Sotrovimab?

Sotrovimab is a new anti-viral therapy that has been approved for use on patients — aged 12 years or more — with severe attack of COVID-19. 

It is a monoclonal antibody therapy developed by British pharmaceutical company, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) and Vir Biotechnology, a clinical immunology therapy developer.

It is expensive, costs between USD 1000 and USD 3000, a potent intravenous infusion of antibodies to neutralize the virus, rather than dampen the body's inflammatory response to it.

Results from the Recovery trial suggest it could help one in three of those in hospital with severe Covid.

For every 100 patients treated, experts calculate, it would save six lives.




In the trial, it significantly reduced the:

  • Risk of death
  • Length of hospital stay, by four days on average
  • Likelihood of needing a ventilator to breathe

Covid 19 Rapid Antigen Test Kit

  Antibody tests are useful to help track the spread of a contagious disease , disease that is readily spread. It can be very useful to identify those who should be vaccinated urgently, and to select the donors for convalescent plasma therapy. Antigens are molecules capable of stimulating or encouraging an immune system response. Each antigen has distinct surface features or structures called epitopes, generating specific responses. What are Antibody and Antigen ? An antibody (Ab), also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a large, Y-shaped protein used by the immune system to identify and remove foreign objects such as pathogenic bacteria and viruses.  These antibodies are produced by B cells of the immune system due to exposure to antigens. Each antibody contains a paratope which recognizes a specific 'epitope' on an antigen, acting like a lock and key binding mechanism. This binding makes possible to eliminate antigens from the body, either by direct neutralization or by ‘tag

Portable Pulse Oximeter

Image
  Portable Pulse Oximeter Portable Pulse Oximeter is a noninvasive and painless device to measures oxygen saturation level, or the oxygen levels in blood. It can rapidly detect even small changes in how efficiently oxygen is being carried  to all of its cells, tissues, and organs. Portable Pulse Oximeter can be used to measure oxygen saturation levels along with heart rate. Portable Pulse oximeter can be used to monitor the health of a person with any type of condition that can affect blood oxygen levels. These conditions include: 1 . chronic obstructive pulmonary disease 2 . asthma 3 . pneumonia 4 . lung cancer 5 . anemia 6 . heart attack or heart failure 7 . congenital heart defects How Portable Oximeter Works To measure oxygen level, a probe that looks like a bag clip is placed onto fingertip, toe, or earlobe. Light beams pass through the blood, measuring the amount of oxygen gas. It does this by measuring changes of light absorption in oxygenated blood containing high oxygen l

NVIDIA DGX B200

  Nvidia turns up the AI heat with 1,200W Blackwell GPUs AI's power and thermal demands hit home Nvidia doubles up on GPU compute with second-gen Superchips According to Nvidia its DGX B200 chassis with eight B200 GPUs will consume roughly 14.3kW – something that's going to require roughly 60kW of rack power and thermal headroom to handle. Blackwell's full potential will require switching over to liquid cooling. In a liquid-cooled configuration, Nvidia says the chip can output 1,200W of thermal energy when pumping out the full 20 petaFLOPS of FP4. While Nvidia may dominate the AI infrastructure market, it's hardly the only name out there. Heavy hitters like Intel and AMD are rolling out Gaudi and Instinct accelerators. The B200 "Blackwell" is the largest chip physically possible using existing foundry tech, according to its makers. The chip is an astonishing 208 billion transistors , and is made up of two chiplets, which by themselves are the largest

KEY PERFORMANCE METRICS FOR BANKS

Image
Leadership starts with access to the right information to make intelligent decisions and drive a  data culture . The average bank spends an excessive number of hours per month assembling financial performance reports, then updating, distributing, and  interpreting data . Bank should consider a  performance management tool  designed to automate the entire process, empowering to do less administrative work compiling data and reports, and more time making  data-driven decisions  that impact bottom-line success. Impactful strategic decisions  then start with understanding current performance strengths and areas of improvement by tracking the right mix of key performance metrics for banks metrics and bank KPIs. METRICS: 1. LDR Loans/Deposits Ratio (LDR) – Expressed as a percentage, LDR is used to assess a bank's liquidity by comparing a bank's total loans to its total deposits for the same period. If the ratio is too high, it means that the bank may not have enough liquidity to
