Medical Xpress / Simple test could transform time to endometriosis diagnosis
A simple five-minute test addressing major endometriosis diagnostic delays and treatment, has been developed by University of Queensland researchers. The Simplified Adolescent Factors for Endometriosis (SAFE) score uses a ...
Phys.org / Probiotic sugar compound blocks norovirus from attaching to cells
Stopping viruses before they strike is a key challenge in public health. A research team led by Associate Professor Li Dan from the Department of Food Science and Technology at National University of Singapore's Faculty of ...
Phys.org / How boron helps to produce key proteins for new cancer therapies
Chemists from ETH Zurich have found a way to produce poorly soluble proteins by caging a uniquely reactive boron compound. This method opens up new possibilities for the synthesis of tailored protein therapeutics, including ...
Medical Xpress / How AI is integrated into clinical workflow lowers medical liability perception
Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the field and practice of medicine, including legal liability and the perception of who is at fault when a patient experiences harm. "AI holds promise to improve the quality and safety ...
Phys.org / Moisture-powered polymers could make cleaning CO₂ from air more efficient
Over the past century, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has increased dramatically. This rise has contributed to global warming and led to many harmful effects, including shifting weather patterns and more frequent ...
Medical Xpress / Predicting brain health with a smartwatch
Can smartphones or smartwatches help detect early signs of neurological or mental illness? Researchers at the University of Geneva (UNIGE) monitored a group of participants wearing connected devices, and used artificial intelligence ...
Medical Xpress / Daily multivitamins may slow biological aging, two-year trial suggests
An analysis led by Mass General Brigham investigators found slower aging in older adults after two years of a daily multivitamin, with greater benefits for those who began the trial with accelerated biological age
Medical Xpress / Alternative breast cancer treatment tied to about four times higher mortality, nationwide analysis finds
The alternative medicine industry is expanding rapidly, fueled in large part by the surge of health-related content on social media. This growing trend has become an increasing concern for oncology practitioners and patients, ...
Tech Xplore / Atom-thin material could help solve chip manufacturing problem
Making computer chips smaller is not just about better design. It also depends on a critical step in manufacturing called patterning, where nanoscale structures are carved into materials to form the circuits inside everything ...
Phys.org / Recent pandemic viruses jumped to humans without prior adaptation, study finds
A new University of California San Diego study published in Cell challenges a long-standing assumption about how animal viruses become capable of sparking human epidemics and pandemics. Using a phylogenetic, genome-wide analysis ...
Tech Xplore / AI-powered defense system stops 5G cyber-attacks in a fraction of a second
An AI defense system has successfully detected and neutralized sophisticated 5G cyber-attacks in less than a tenth of a second, paving the way for more secure 5G and future 6G mobile networks, say researchers at the University ...
Tech Xplore / Aerosol jet printing creates durable, low-power transistors for next-generation tech
Tiny electronic devices, called microelectronics, may one day be printed as easily as words on a page, thanks to new research from scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory. Building ...
