Medical Xpress / Alcohol abstinence enables regeneration even in advanced liver cirrhosis
Consistent and permanent abstinence from alcohol can lead to the regression of existing liver-related complications, even in cases of advanced alcohol-related cirrhosis. This is shown by an international multicentre study ...
Phys.org / NASA finds source of Artemis II problem that forced rollback from the launch pad
NASA announced it had found the source of a helium flow blockage that forced it to roll the Artemis II rocket back from the launch pad at Kennedy Space Center and delay its lunar fly-by mission until at least April.
Phys.org / Why conversation is more like a dance than an exchange of words
Think about the last time you told a story to a friend. You probably adjusted it halfway through. You saw their eyebrows lift. You noticed them lean in, or glance away. You clarified a detail. You sped up the ending. That ...
Phys.org / Smarter mangrove protection: Study links a 7.3% area boost to 13.3% resilience gain
A global study of mangroves has found that a modest boost in conserved areas could significantly increase their ability to adapt to the changing climate, including rising sea levels. University of Queensland Ph.D. candidate ...
Phys.org / Antibacterial coatings with short-term effect may fail over longer periods of time
Researchers from the Institute of Physics and the Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology of the University of Tartu have shown in a recently published study that antibacterial coatings which initially appear highly effective ...
Phys.org / Irrigation gaps in weather models could skew air quality forecasts, study finds
Outdoor air pollution is estimated to contribute to more than 100,000 premature deaths in the United States each year, according to the National Weather Service. Accurate air quality forecasts—designed to protect public ...
Medical Xpress / Quitting GLP-1 drugs triggers rapid regain, but 25% of weight loss may last
A year after stopping taking weight-loss drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy, people regain—on average—60% of their lost weight. But beyond this, their regained weight plateaus, with individuals managing to keep off 25% ...
Medical Xpress / GLP-1 medications get at the heart of addiction, study finds
Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have shown in a new study that GLP-1 medications may be effective at treating and preventing substance-use disorders across all major addictive substances ...
Phys.org / What's going on inside quantum computers? New method simplifies process tomography
Quantum computers work by applying quantum operations, such as quantum gates, to delicate quantum states. Ideally, quantum computers can solve complex equations at staggeringly fast speeds that vastly outpace regular computers. ...
Phys.org / Microbial assembly line makes plastic upcycling programmable
By converting plastic waste into a microbe-friendly food source, scientists have built an upcycling pipeline that turns the waste into a variety of useful products. The findings are detailed in the journal Nature Sustainability.
Phys.org / Understanding how cells take up and use isolated mitochondria to restore energy function
Mitochondria are essential for cell survival, repair, and adaptation. Not only do they generate most of the energy needed during a cell's life, but they also regulate cell death, calcium balance, and responses to stress. ...
Medical Xpress / Ongoing problems with kids' heart transplant waitlists found in two studies
More babies and children survive the wait for a heart transplant than in the past, but improvements are due to better medical care, not changes to waitlist rules, a new study finds. The method used across the United States ...
