Medical Xpress / Continuous wearable monitoring reduces time with low oxygen after surgery, study finds
Patients continuously monitored after surgery experienced significantly less time with dangerously low oxygen levels compared to those monitored using routine spot checks, a new study from Wake Forest University School of ...
Phys.org / Turning CO₂ into methanol: Multilayer machine learning speeds up search for better catalysts
Finding high-performing catalysts, which are used to accelerate processes from chemical manufacturing to energy production, can be a slow, expensive process, often relying on years of trial-and-error or massive computational ...
Medical Xpress / Breast cancer hijacks the lung repair system to fuel tumor growth, study finds
Researchers at the CU Anschutz Cancer Center have discovered how breast cancer cells that spread to the lungs may take advantage of the body's natural healing response and how a commonly used drug might slow that process. ...
Medical Xpress / High-resolution atlas of developing human brain combines data from nearly 200 studies and 30 million cells
In a bid to better understand, and potentially treat, a host of conditions that affect early cognition, neurodevelopment and the brain later in life, investigators at Johns Hopkins Medicine and colleagues throughout the world ...
Phys.org / 'Ghost forests' could be key to understanding coastal resilience to climate change
Rising sea levels are contributing to a phenomenon called "ghost forests," which are groups of dead and dying standing trees that have been drowned by intruding saltwater. And all along the eastern U.S. where there used to ...
Medical Xpress / ZR fusion protein sways normal brain cell development toward cancer growth, study reveals
A team of researchers at Baylor College of Medicine, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Texas Children's Hospital and collaborating institutions reveal in the journal Nature a novel mechanism that drives the development ...
Phys.org / Single-cell imaging and machine learning reveal hidden coordination in algae's response to light stress
Researchers from several Parisian institutions have worked together to develop a non-destructive approach to study how unicellular organisms respond to stress, focusing on cell-to-cell differences. Working together, the researchers ...
Medical Xpress / Novel AI-enhanced MRI boosts success rate in patients with arrhythmia
AI-enhanced single-shot cine MRI produces superior image quality and provides ventricular measurements comparable to conventional cine MRI, according to research published in Radiology: Cardiothoracic Imaging.
Phys.org / Two buried Iron Age hoards reveal first evidence for four-wheeled wagons in Britain
In 2021, a man named Peter Heads made a fascinating discovery while using his metal detector in Melsonby, North Yorkshire in the UK. The find prompted him to contact Tom Moore at the Department of Archaeology at Durham University, ...
Phys.org / Boron arsenide semiconductor sets record in quantum vibrations
You may not be able to hear it, but all solid materials make a sound. In fact, atoms—bound in lattices of chemical bonds—are never silent nor still: Under the placid surface of each and every object in our surroundings, a ...
Phys.org / Ancient 'syphilis-like' disease in Vietnam challenges long-held assumptions on congenital infection
The findings of a new study by a Charles Sturt University researcher and colleagues challenge a long-standing assumption used by scientists studying ancient disease. The study is published in the International Journal of ...
Phys.org / Pompeii's battle scars linked to an ancient 'machine gun'
The ancient city of Pompeii is one of those archaeological sites that keeps on giving with one discovery after another. While much of what we know about the Roman settlement comes from the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79, another ...
