Medical Xpress / Red meat-related gut byproduct tied to higher atrial fibrillation risk
A Cleveland Clinic-led study shows a connection between elevated blood levels of TMAO (trimethylamine N-oxide)—a byproduct of gut bacteria digestion of nutrients found in red meat and other animal products—and a higher risk ...
Medical Xpress / Thymus-derived hormone may suppress age-related inflammation and boost cancer therapy
Chronic, low-grade inflammation in the body—a phenomenon known as "inflammaging" because it increases with age—has been linked to many of today's leading causes of illness and death, including cancer, heart disease, metabolic ...
Phys.org / Light-driven chemistry method could create antiviral compound libraries 10 to 100 times larger within weeks
As the world faces new and often untreatable viral threats, Simon Fraser University researchers have found a way to cut years off the time it takes to discover antiviral drugs. The new research enables scientists to quickly ...
Phys.org / AI and quantum chemistry combine to identify efficient blue OLED materials
Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have become a standard in modern devices with incredible contrast and sleek designs. While initially an expensive luxury, OLEDs are gradually becoming more financially accessible as the ...
Phys.org / Geophysics brings clarity to the potential of natural hydrogen
Natural hydrogen is considered a potential low-carbon energy source. But how much is generated underground—and how quickly? An international research team led by the LIAG Institute for Applied Geophysics in Hannover has published ...
Phys.org / Study explores the hedging capability of cryptocurrencies in turbulent markets
The rapid growth of sustainable finance in recent years has fueled interest in green investment, ranging from green bonds and environmental, social and governance (ESG) funds to energy-efficient cryptocurrencies. While these ...
Medical Xpress / Many U.S. schools unprepared to help concussed students return to the classroom
Many U.S. schools aren't well prepared to help students who've suffered a concussion, a new study says. A quarter of public schools have no concussion policy at all, and those with such a policy aren't adequately training ...
Phys.org / Global analysis reveals age as overlooked driver of food-related climate emissions
A new international study published in Nature Food reveals that age plays an important but often overlooked role in shaping global food-related greenhouse gas emissions. The study shows that dietary emissions can vary substantially ...
Phys.org / Japan's first mosasaur premaxilla fossil hints at a new species
A research team from Okayama University of Science, Tokyo City University, the Natural History Museum, Kishiwada City (Osaka Prefecture), and other institutions has identified four previously unrecognized fossil bones from ...
Phys.org / Burnt wooden beams discovered in Jerusalem shed new light on the First Temple's destruction
A remarkable discovery has been made at the Givati Parking Lot excavations in the City of David, within Jerusalem Walls National Park. Excavations led by the Israel Antiquities Authority and Tel Aviv University uncovered ...
Phys.org / Plasma design rules show how to preserve attosecond flashes for observing electrons
Researchers at Skoltech, together with a colleague from the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, working within the joint SIOM–Skoltech laboratory, have determined how to select ...
Phys.org / New study into humans' closest ape relatives suggests physical touch can promote social harmony
Physical touch may be an important evolutionary tool to help manage social tension and keep the peace. That is according to a new study led by Durham University in the UK, analyzing behaviors of our closest ape relatives, ...
