Pyramids FC brought down to earth in Egypt Cup final!
Pyramids FC were brought down to earth by Zamalek in the Egypt Cup final which was played on Thursday night. The encounter at the Cairo International Stadium promised nothing but fireworks, and it did live up to the expectations. The recently crowned CAF Champions League champions fancied their chances against a very experienced Zamalek team. However, they had to face their Egyptian rivals without prolific striker Fiston Mayele on the night. Pyramids were the first to take the lead via El Sayed in the 29th minute but a 78th minute goal by Mansy took the game to extra time. Neither team could find the winner after 120 minutes of football, and penalties had to decide who the champions were. Pyramids were on the backfoot in the early takings of the penalties after Mohamed Fathi missed his penalty. However, Zamalek's Shalaby brought them into the game as he missed what would have been his side's winner in the fifth penalty. Both Pyramids and Zamalek took 10 penalties each, but it was the home side who missed more (three) while the visitors missed just two. In the end, Zamalek were crowned champions after beating Pyramids 8-7 on penalties. Pyramids were looking for their second major trophy in less than a week after stunning Mamelodi Sundowns in the CAF Champions League final last Sunday. It is also worth mentioning that Pyramids were wearing their new jersey with the symbolic CAF Champions League star on it.

$2.8M grant awarded for study on gum disease and Alzheimer's link
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WJBF) – A doctor at the Dental College of Georgia has been awarded a grant to continue research on the connection between gum disease and Alzheimer's disease. The $2.8 million competitive grant was awarded to Dr. Ranya El Sayed by the National Institute of Aging. Dr. El Sayed said there is a strong relationship between gum disease and Alzheimer's disease, which led to the question – how does this happen and is there a cause-and-effect relationship? El Sayed said, 'During periodontal infection in the gums, the immune cells release small particles that are called exosomes. These exosomes are capable of traveling through the blood stream to cross the blood brain barrier and when they enter the blood brain barrier, their taken up by the immune cells of the brain which are called microglia cells and this causes neuroinflammation and inflammation of the brain.' According to the Alzheimer's Association, nearly 7 million Americans are living with the disease, by 2050 that number is projected to reach almost 13 million. Dr. Babak Baban, Professor and Associate Dean of Research for Dental College of Georgia, says it's an honor to have their research be noticed and appreciated by such a large organization. 'A topic like this which can secure the competitive funding really at the national level, that means a lot, that speaks for itself that our faculty and our researchers are basically discovering the innovative ways to improve our health quality and our life quality in general.' Dr. Baban said. Over the course of her research, Dr. El Sayed says the most fascinating thing she learned was how interconnected the brain and mouth truly are. She said Alzheimer's is such a devastating disease and hopes their findings will impact people in the future. She said, 'We are still working on it, we have very promising data from human data, mice data, and that we are still working on it, there is a lot more to answer and I'm very optimistic we are going to find something by the end of the research period.' She continued to say, 'If we treat the root cause from the beginning, if we are able to raise awareness in Alzheimer's patients or in the early stages, or elderly patients or the whole population in general to take care of their teeth and do the maintenance visits, the routine dental visits, we can eliminate the problem, maybe.' Dr. El Sayed's team has been researching this correlation for the past 3 and a half years and this grant will allow them to continue their research for the next 5 years.
