Researchers correlate rheumatoid arthritis and giant cell arteritis with solar cycles
What began as a chat between husband and wife has evolved into an intriguing scientific discovery. The results show a ‘highly significant’ correlation between periodic solar storms and incidences of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and giant cell arteritis (GCA), two potentially debilitating autoimmune diseases. The findings by a rare collaboration of physicists and medical researchers suggest […]
