Tech Xplore / Advanced 3D printing creates origami-inspired structures
Researchers at the Department of Energy's Manufacturing Demonstration Facility at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have introduced an innovation in additive manufacturing by integrating origami-inspired 3D printing techniques ...
Medical Xpress / Review on glioma organoid models proposes new classification framework for brain cancer research
Researchers from the Terasaki Institute for Biomedical Innovation, together with key pioneers in glioma biology, neuro-oncology and stem cell biology, have published a comprehensive review in Society for Neuro-Oncology's ...
Medical Xpress / CAR T-cell therapy shows early promise in severe lupus
Early results from a UCL- and UCLH-led clinical trial suggest that a type of CAR T-cell therapy—developed by Autolus Therapeutics, a UCL spinout—could offer a new treatment approach for people with severe, treatment-resistant ...
Phys.org / Digital platforms are making it more difficult to focus, read and even engage in democracy
Oxford's 2024 Word of the Year, "brain rot," refers to the loss of intelligence or critical thinking skills due to the overconsumption of specific types of content, most often in the digital sphere. A Binghamton University ...
Medical Xpress / ENDO: GLP-1 receptor agonists tied to higher hypotension risk in patients on BP meds
Among patients with preexisting hypertension taking antihypertensive medications, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) use is associated with an increase in hypotensive-related events, according to a study ...
Medical Xpress / Inside failing joints: How wear and corrosion reshape hip and knee implants over time
Orthopedic implants are designed to restore movement and relieve pain, offering patients a second or even third chance at mobility. A hip or knee replacement is often framed as a durable fix, engineered to last for years, ...
Medical Xpress / At 85 and healthy? Why more medicine may do more harm
When a patient has made it to 85 years old in reasonable health, their instinct—and often their physician's—is to redouble prevention efforts, optimize every number and close every gap. I want to argue the opposite.
Medical Xpress / Combo treatment delays multiple myeloma progression and may improve survival, study finds
Patients with multiple myeloma who received a new immunotherapy combination lived significantly longer without their cancer worsening and showed early signs of improved survival in a large international clinical trial.
Medical Xpress / New evidence on graft-versus-host disease prevention in stem cell transplants from unrelated donors
Anti-T-lymphocyte globulin (ATLG) for the prevention of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) reduces complications and infection-related mortality compared with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in allogeneic hematopoietic ...
Medical Xpress / Crohn's atlas maps gene shifts across more than 50 gut cell types
A detailed cellular study of Crohn's disease has mapped how gene activity changes across more than 50 cell types in the gut. The study provides an open resource of the genes that characterize each cell type and those whose ...
Phys.org / Deep Earth model traces 270 million years of seamount formation across oceans
Over 40,000 seamounts—undersea mountains that don't breach the ocean's surface—are scattered across the ocean floor. Some form linear chains, while others occur as dispersed, isolated features that are not part of well-defined ...
Phys.org / Benzene reaction may explain how DNA and RNA building blocks formed on early Earth
Caltech researchers have identified a novel chemical reaction that could explain the formation of the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the molecules that encode all of life's functions. The work is an important step toward ...
