Medical Xpress / Researchers solve mystery behind rare clotting after adenoviral vaccines or natural adenovirus infection
A global research collaboration of scientists from McMaster University (Canada), Flinders University (Australia) and Universitätsmedizin Greifswald (Germany) uncovered why a small number of people developed dangerous blood ...
Phys.org / Can life begin on a moon without a sun?
Free-floating planets, or as they are more commonly known, rogue planets, wander interstellar space completely alone. Saying there might be a lot of them is a bit of an understatement. Recent estimates put the number of rogue ...
Phys.org / What's in a name? Information structure parallels discovered across cultures—with repercussions for Asian names
First names in Western countries today are more diverse than they were before early modern states evolved. This difference started to emerge in the 17th century in response to a change that took place in the naming system ...
Medical Xpress / Traffic noise linked to higher cholesterol and lipid levels in blood
A new study from the University of Oulu has found that nighttime noise exposure is associated with changes in blood cholesterol and lipid-related metabolites in adults, which are known risk factors for cardiometabolic diseases. ...
Tech Xplore / Dimethyl ether production process could significantly advance the hydrogen economy
To ensure energy security and achieve its climate protection goals, Germany will import large quantities of hydrogen in the future. Dimethyl ether (DME) is an environmentally friendly, non-toxic, efficient, and economically ...
Medical Xpress / Nurses can deliver hospital care just as well as doctors, review finds
Nurses can safely deliver many services traditionally performed by doctors, with little to no difference in deaths, safety events, or how patients felt about their health, according to a new review, appearing in the Cochrane ...
Phys.org / New dataset reveals how US law has grown more complex over the past century
A century ago, the section of U.S. federal law governing public health and welfare was relatively small and loosely connected to the rest of the legal system. Today, it is one of the largest and most interconnected parts ...
Phys.org / New model tracks antimicrobial resistance genes across gut, wastewater, soil and air
A multinational research team led by Professor Tong Zhang from the Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering at the University of Hong Kong (HKU Engineering), in collaboration with an international team, has ...
Phys.org / The radical propulsion needed to catch the solar gravitational lens
Sending a mission to the solar gravitational lens (SGL) is the most effective way of actually directly imaging a potentially habitable planet, as well as its atmosphere, and even possibly some of its cities. But, the SGL ...
Phys.org / Quantum Twins simulator unveils 15,000 controllable quantum dots for materials research
Researchers in Australia have unveiled the largest quantum simulation platform built to date, opening a new route to exploring the complex behavior of quantum materials at unprecedented scales.
Medical Xpress / When ADHD is talked about as a fad—it does more than misrepresent science
The words we all use matter. When it comes to neurodiversity—they shape how communities understand difference, who is believed and who feels safe to ask for support. For people with Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder ...
Phys.org / When heat flows backwards: A neat solution for hydrodynamic heat transport
When we think about heat traveling through a material, we typically picture diffusive transport, a process that transfers heat from high-temperature to low-temperature as particles and molecules bump into each other, losing ...
