Phys.org / Podcasts move stocks but fail to beat market, analysis of 25,000 episodes shows
Investment podcasts can prompt investors to take action. However, they do not provide a reliable return advantage. This is shown in a new working paper by Prof. Dr. Marten Laudi of Kühne Logistics University (KLU) and Janik ...
Medical Xpress / Researcher maps the kidney's 'longevity protein,' revealing segment specific roles of Klotho
A research team led by City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK), in collaboration with the University of Zurich, has uncovered the first comprehensive map of how the anti-aging protein Klotho operates in distinct regions of ...
Medical Xpress / Boom in ketamine clinics and at-home delivery sparks safety concerns
The American Society of Anesthesiologists is calling on policymakers to address the fast-growing problem of home delivery of ketamine and the lack of physician oversight in ketamine clinics. In guidance updated this month, ...
Phys.org / Tropical ocean temperatures may drive changes in malaria cases in Malawi
Malaria is one of the world's deadliest infectious diseases. Because it is transmitted by mosquitoes, malaria is extremely sensitive to environmental conditions like rainfall and temperature that affect mosquito survival ...
Phys.org / Understanding what drives students to attack their peers
Identifying risk factors is crucial to designing effective prevention strategies against bullying and cyberbullying. A study conducted by the Laboratory for Studies on Coexistence and Violence Prevention (LAECOVI) at the ...
Phys.org / Researchers reveal Hong Kong as a 'biodiversity ark' for yellow-crested cockatoos and expand nesting support
A new genomic study by researchers from the HKU School of Biological Sciences (SBS) has found that Hong Kong's introduced population of yellow-crested cockatoos retains unexpectedly high genetic diversity and could serve ...
Medical Xpress / Before tangles kill neurons, tau-linked transport defects may be reversible
Neurons, specialized cells that transmit information across the nervous system, communicate with each other via projections known as axons. These microscopic, cable-like structures are also used to deliver proteins, signaling ...
Phys.org / Saturday Citations: Intermittent fasting and chronic stress; macroscopic entanglement; gamma-ray bursts
Researchers reported this week a deadly outbreak of plague in Siberia 5,500 years ago, revealing that Yersinia pestis evolved lethal genetic traits far earlier than suspected. A drug developed for heart tissue repair may ...
Medical Xpress / Wearable devices may help detect cytokine release syndrome earlier in patients receiving CAR-T therapy
Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have found that wearable devices may help clinicians detect cytokine release syndrome (CRS)—a common and potentially serious side effect of CAR-T cell therapy—hours ...
Medical Xpress / Butyrate alters dendritic cell development and surface markers through epigenetic control, study finds
The benefits of dietary fiber extend beyond digestive health, as dietary fiber-derived metabolites produced by gut microbiota can influence immune function. Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are secondary metabolites produced ...
Medical Xpress / AI and 3D-printed tumor organoids could rapidly uncover promising cancer therapies
Researchers at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center have developed a new platform that combines 3D bioprinting, advanced imaging and artificial intelligence to better monitor how cancer responds to treatment. ...
Phys.org / Investigating quantum and molecular plumbing in nanofluidics research
Our body contains an intricate system of tiny vessels through which blood, water and other molecules flow. When the size of the pipes shrinks to the nanoscale, where only a few molecules can fit side by side, the classical ...
