Medical Xpress / Mint, eucalyptus and chili compounds reveal powerful synergy against inflammation in immune cells
Many everyday foods and seasonings—such as herbs, spices, and aromatic plants—contain natural compounds called phytochemicals that can regulate inflammatory pathways. For centuries, these ingredients have been used together ...
Medical Xpress / FDA's abrupt flip-flop on Moderna's mRNA flu shot highlights growing risks to drug-makers of investing in vaccines
The Food and Drug Administration's decision, made public on Feb. 10, 2026, to not review an application to approve Moderna's proposed mRNA-based flu vaccine set off a firestorm of criticism from public health experts.
Medical Xpress / Neighborhood factors may lead to increased COPD-related emergency department visits, hospitalizations
Certain neighborhood characteristics, including higher poverty, more uninsured residents, and lower educational attainment, may lead to an increase in COPD-related emergency department visits and hospitalizations, according ...
Tech Xplore / 3D printing platform rapidly produces complex electric machines
A broken motor in an automated machine can bring production on a busy factory floor to a halt. If engineers can't find a replacement part, they may have to order one from a distributor hundreds of miles away, leading to costly ...
Phys.org / Mantle plume vs. plate tectonics: Basalt cores reshape the North Atlantic breakup debate
About 56 million years ago, Europe and North America began pulling apart to form what became the ever-expanding North Atlantic Ocean. Vast amounts of molten rock from Earth's mantle reached the ocean floor as the crust stretched ...
