A considerable proportion of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) exhibit anxiety symptoms, according to a study published in the Journal of Inflammation Research.
Phys.org / AI finds tiny gene editor changes that reduce unintended DNA edits
Gene editing is a highly precise and powerful technology that allows scientists to insert, delete, modify or replace DNA bases in living organisms. It has a variety of uses, including correcting disease-causing mutations ...
Phys.org / Buried Roman workshop reveals large-scale pottery trade beyond local markets
A few years ago, the first ceramic finds came to light during construction work in the Burg district of the municipality of Hannersdorf. Geomagnetic surveys in subsequent years provided evidence of numerous kilns thought ...
Phys.org / How flying together helps Andean condors save energy
Animals are constantly moving to find food, water, suitable habitats, mates and safe places to rest. Because moving requires substantial energy, animals often rely on various biological and behavioral strategies to reduce ...
Phys.org / ELT's spectrograph could 'sniff out' biosignatures on other worlds
Before any major telescope commissioning, there are dozens of papers that attempt to define what we can expect from it. We're starting to see some come through for the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT), which hopefully will ...
Phys.org / Neutron star collisions may forge gold more slowly than expected
Where do gold, platinum and uranium come from? This question has fascinated astrophysicists and nuclear physicists for decades. A research team from Technische Universität Darmstadt has now taken an important step toward ...
Science X / When darkness fell during the total solar eclipse, zoo animals responded in wildly different ways
Imagine a bright, sunny day suddenly turning dark as a solar eclipse sweeps across the sky. Even though humans have watched and recorded eclipses for thousands of years and now understand the science behind them, experiencing ...
Phys.org / Gamma-ray pulsations reveal extreme 3.2-millisecond pulsar 3,900 light-years away
By analyzing the data from NASA's Fermi gamma-ray space telescope, Chinese astronomers have investigated a recently identified millisecond pulsar known as PSR J0435+3233. As a result, they found that the pulsar exhibits gamma-ray ...
Phys.org / An entire world of fungi nearly a third of a mile underground could affect carbon storage estimates
Hundreds of feet below Earth's surface, rocks and water teem with fungi and support complex ecosystems of tiny organisms, according to a University of Michigan study that finds fungi are far more abundant deep underground ...
Medical Xpress / Forgotten memories can leave silent traces in the brain
Memory is not a perfect record. Some memories fade, while others remain hidden and can be brought back by reminders. But reminders can also distort what is remembered, and scientists still know little about how the brain ...
Phys.org / Why the future of fashion might involve wearing live fungi
The idea of having living fungi cover your body might not be the most appealing thing in the world. But what if it was part of a clothing fabric that could change color, protect you from UV rays and even repair its own tears? ...
Phys.org / Agricultural waste could fuel protein-rich black soldier fly larvae for human foods
They're wriggly black grubs more commonly tossed to backyard hens than served at the dinner table, but black soldier fly larvae could soon play a key role in building a more sustainable food system, according to new research ...
