According to a study published in Cell Metabolism, premenopausal women with depression have a higher prevalence of gut bacteria than premenopausal women without depression, which is linked to worse clinical outcomes in hospitals. [more…]
Initial experiments of a technique for detecting the strength of certain ion-electron interactions in water yielded unexpected results. When it comes to power, the interactions between positively charged ions (cations) and negatively charged pi(π)-electrons are most important. [more…]
According to recent studies, microbiota serve as crucial building blocks for cell division. When part of the liver is removed, the body can restore the missing tissue. However, the last study at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) [more…]
World-renowned theoretical physicist Prof. Dr. Michio Kaku pointed out that important developments took place at the Second Century Economy Conference hosted by the Izmir Metropolitan Municipality and said, “All information will be hidden in the lens you put on your eye”. [more…]
The causes of damage during proton radiotherapy have been clarified by research on the electron excitation response of DNA to proton radiation. Studies on the effects of ionizing radiation on human health in the field of radiation biology [more…]
The inability of chromosomes to be properly distributed during cell division is one of the abnormal characteristics of cancer cells. Now scientists have a unique problem with the chromosome distribution mechanism of cancer cells trapped in narrow microscopic channels. [more…]
An entirely new theory of how immune cells identify dangers such as viruses has been developed by researchers. This discovery will allow scientists to create better vaccines and better address autoimmune diseases and allergies. [more…]
Researchers examined imaging and genetic data from the UK Biobank to learn more about rare eye diseases. Among these, the main issue of certification of working-age adults as visually impaired [more…]
Doctors are in a race against time when someone has a spinal cord injury. To minimize damage, doctors urgently operate patients and anti-inflammatory drugs ranging from over-the-counter pain relievers like Advil to the steroid methylprednisolone. [more…]
By using the latest technology to study behavioral patterns in mice with epilepsy, researchers can better understand the condition and find new remedies. Researchers funded by the National Institutes of Health have found mice that cannot be seen by the human eye. [more…]
Burns and other serious skin injuries are treated with skin grafts. Thanks to advances in bioengineering since the 1980s, new leather parts can now be produced in the laboratory. Artificially designed in this way for patients [more…]
As we age, our bodies begin to fill up with a kind of dysfunctional cell. These cells are called “aging cells” and are cells that stop dividing permanently. They do not function and die like normal healthy cells. Instead of, [more…]
Two common wild plants have extracts that prevent the virus that causes COVID-19 from infecting living cells, according to a study at Emory University. The first important study of botanical extracts to evaluate their efficacy against the SARS-CoV-2 virus. [more…]
Disaster management and climate change have increased the importance of protocols for hypothermia emergencies that the rescuer should be familiar with. In fact, given the vulnerable population groups that have to contend with the challenges of cold in every region of the world, [more…]
The inner bark of Cinnamomum trees is the source of cinnamon, a well-known aromatic spice that many of us use to flavor savory dishes and bake cakes. Southern China, India, as well as the Himalayas and other mountain ranges [more…]
Starting from the top, a strong heart leads the way. The sinoatrial node, an oval-shaped piece of tissue in the upper right chamber, is the heart's natural pacemaker. The organ maintains its regular rhythm thanks to the periodic electrical impulses it emits. [more…]
How memories deteriorate with aging has been demonstrated through a model for storing information in the brain. Attractive networks are theoretical constructs that provide a model for how the brain stores memories. New to these networks [more…]
The receptor for the hormone oxytocin, which is thought to be crucial in establishing social bonds, doesn't play the important role scientists have attributed to it for the past 30 years, according to new research from UC San Francisco and Stanford Medicine researchers. [more…]
Aydoğan Özcan received the 2023 SPIE Dennis Gabor Diffractive Optics Award. Outstanding achievements in diffractive wavefront technology, particularly those driving the development of holography and metrology applications, were awarded the SPIE Dennis Gabor Diffractive Optics Award. [more…]
In the Randomized REMAP-CAP Study (JAMA. 2023;329(1):39-51) published in the JAMA medical journal, IL-6 receptor antagonists (tocilizumab, sarilumab, satralizumab, and siltuximab) and anti-platelet agents in patients with COVID-19 were in poor general condition. survive long term (six month) [more…]
A University of East Anglia study shows that women at risk for Alzheimer's disease may benefit from hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Study has APOE4 gene, highest risk factor gene for Alzheimer's disease [more…]
Robotic dental implant surgery is beginning to be said to result in less discomfort and faster patient recovery times. Neocis, a technology startup, is a dental implant to assist dentists during implant surgery. [more…]
