Alderson Broaddus University professor publishes manuscript
The Journal of Pathology & Translational Medicine recently informed Dr. Amitabha Ray, Associate Professor of Anatomical Science at Alderson Broaddus University, of their acceptance of his manuscript entitled Infections and immunity: Associations with obesity and related metabolic disorders.
“Management of lifestyle including prevention of obesity can avoid both metabolic diseases and critical stages of infection,” explains Ray. The COVID-19 pandemic and the story of infections and deaths in the United States was the catalyst for this research. COVID-19 infections and death rate statistics centered around those with metabolic diseases, especially in persons over the age of 60 with underlying health problems such as diabetes and obesity.
A publication date by The Journal of Pathology & Translational Medicine has not been released to date.
