(6/5, Dallas) reports that a new study published in the June issue of
Mayo Clinic Proceedings finds that "people with a certain flaw in their
immune system are up to four times more likely to die than people who
don't have this 'glitch.'" The researchers "explained that people whose
immune system produced too much of an antibody molecule known as a free
light chain, are far more likely to die from a serious illness, such as
cancer, diabetes or heart disease."
