Dr. Nemeth studies how different health conditions and treatments impact individuals and communities. One of his major research interests is the quality of life for parents of autistic children, highlighting the challenges they face and the need for better support systems. He also investigates skin conditions, particularly atopic dermatitis, using mouse models to understand the underlying biological processes. Additionally, he explores innovative treatments like low-level laser therapy to enhance muscle recovery and performance, providing valuable insights for athletes and patients in rehabilitation.
Key findings
A study involving 842 Hungarian parents showed those with autistic children reported significantly lower quality of life compared to parents of typically developing children.
In a mouse model of atopic dermatitis, higher levels of IL-33 were found in acute lesions, and mice lacking IL-33 experienced more severe symptoms, indicating its role in reducing inflammation.
Experiments with low-level laser therapy found that a combination of a 660 nm wavelength with 1 joule increased the activity of a key muscle protein, boosting muscle performance.

Journal of autism and developmental disorders
Volgyesi-Molnar M, Gyori M, Eapen V, Borsos Z, Havasi A +6 more
Plain English This study looked at how the quality of life (QOL) for Hungarian parents of autistic children compares to that of parents of typically developing children. It involved 842 parents and found that parents of autistic children reported significantly lower quality of life across all areas measured, indicating a need for better support. For instance, the questionnaires showed these parents face challenges that impact their well-being and daily lives.
Who this helps: This research benefits parents of autistic children and the professionals supporting them.
Phenotyping acute and chronic atopic dermatitis-like lesions in Stat6VT mice identifies a role for IL-33 in disease pathogenesis.

Archives of dermatological research
DaSilva-Arnold SC, Thyagarajan A, Seymour LJ, Yi Q, Bradish JR +11 more
Plain English This study looked at a mouse model of atopic dermatitis (AD) to see how the condition develops in different phases, similar to humans. Researchers found that mice with acute lesions had different skin changes compared to mice with chronic lesions, and they noticed higher levels of a protein called IL-33 in the affected skin. Notably, mice lacking IL-33 had more severe symptoms, suggesting that IL-33 plays a role in reducing inflammation.
Who this helps: This research benefits patients with atopic dermatitis and their doctors by improving understanding of the disease.
Effect of pre-irradiation with different doses, wavelengths, and application intervals of low-level laser therapy on cytochrome c oxidase activity in intact skeletal muscle of rats.

Lasers in medical science
Albuquerque-Pontes GM, Vieira RP, Tomazoni SS, Caires CO, Nemeth V +7 more
Plain English This study investigated how different doses and wavelengths of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) affect a specific protein, cytochrome c oxidase, in healthy muscle tissue of rats. The researchers found that certain combinations of laser wavelengths and doses significantly increased the activity of this protein, particularly at 660 nm with 1 joule, 830 nm with 3 joules, and 905 nm with 1 joule. This means that LLLT can help improve muscle performance and protect against fatigue and tissue damage, which could be beneficial for athletes and patients recovering from injuries.
Who this helps: This helps patients, particularly athletes and those recovering from muscle injuries.
West Nile virus surveillance in mosquitoes, April to October 2013, Vojvodina province, Serbia: implications for the 2014 season.

Euro surveillance : bulletin Europeen sur les maladies transmissibles = European communicable disease bulletin
Kemenesi G, Krtinić B, Milankov V, Kutas A, Dallos B +5 more
Plain English This study looked at mosquito samples from Vojvodina province in Serbia to check for the West Nile virus (WNV) after an outbreak in 2012. Researchers found that two types of mosquitoes, Culex pipiens and Anopheles maculipennis, had a high rate of WNV infection, and the virus found in Serbia was similar to strains from Italy and Greece. This matters because it warns public health officials that there may be a greater risk of WNV spreading in 2014.
Who this helps: This helps public health agencies and the local population by raising awareness about potential health risks.
Investigation of the effects of PACAP on the composition of tear and endolymph proteins.
2008
Journal of molecular neuroscience : MN
Gaal V, Mark L, Kiss P, Kustos I, Tamas A +8 more
Plain English This study looked at how a substance called PACAP affects the proteins found in tears and a fluid in the inner ear called endolymph. Researchers found that while the endolymph's protein makeup did not change with PACAP treatment, the composition of tear proteins did change significantly, particularly with some keratins being reduced and others increased. This is important because understanding how PACAP influences tear proteins could lead to better ways to diagnose and treat eye diseases, since changes in tear protein levels can be linked to various health issues.
Who this helps: This research benefits patients with eye conditions and healthcare professionals who treat them.
Towards a biomarker of mammalian senescence: carbonic anhydrase III.
1988
Biochemical and biophysical research communications
Wohlrab H, Bronson RT, Lu RC, Nemeth V
Plain English This study explored proteins in the livers of male Fischer 344 rats to understand changes that happen as they age. Researchers found that a protein called D3, which peaks at 60 days of age, drops to almost zero as the rats transition into older age. This decline can be influenced by hormones like 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone, which, while fully restoring another protein (D4), only partially raises D2 and D3.
Who this helps: This research benefits scientists studying aging and potential treatments for age-related conditions in humans.
Effect of acute cardiac lymph stasis on metabolic coronary adaptation in the dog.

Lymphology
Solti F, Nemeth V, Juhasz-Nagy A
Plain English This study examined how blocking lymph drainage from the heart affects blood flow regulation in dogs. Researchers found that after blocking lymph flow, the heart's ability to respond to increased blood flow was significantly reduced, showing about a 50% decrease in responsiveness. This matters because impaired blood flow regulation could lead to serious heart problems, especially after events like heart attacks.
Who this helps: This research benefits doctors treating patients with heart conditions.
