Medical Xpress / Study shows association between obstructive sleep apnea, all-cause mortality and cardiovascular events
New research to be presented at the European Congress on Obesity (ECO 2026, Istanbul, Turkey, 12–15 May) shows that those living with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) have a 71% higher risk of cardiovascular events (CVEs) or ...
Tech Xplore / Chip-scale light technology could power faster AI and data center communications
Researchers at Trinity have developed a new light-based technology on a tiny chip that could help make the data centers behind cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and global internet services faster and more efficient. ...
Phys.org / Wildfires accelerate winter snowmelt in Oregon's western Cascades, study finds
The Pacific Northwest has seen below-normal snow this season—and new research from Portland State University suggests that the region's snowmelt-dependent water resources could face growing challenges in the years ahead as ...
Phys.org / Cornerstone model of evolutionary biology built on math flaw, study argues
New research is significantly revising a widely cited evolutionary model, the Inhibitory Cascade Mode (ICM). Benjamin Auerbach, professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Tennessee, ...
Medical Xpress / International severity criteria developed for Vitiligo
In a consensus statement published online March 25 in JAMA Dermatology, internationally agreed-upon severity criteria are presented for vitiligo.
Medical Xpress / Studies tie altered regulatory T cells to autism-related behavior, point to potential therapies
Two new studies from the UC Davis MIND Institute examined regulatory T cells (Tregs) and their potential role in neuroinflammation and behavioral changes associated with autism. Tregs act as immune system "brakes," calming ...
Tech Xplore / Do you trust me? A framework for making networks of robots and vehicles safer
From birds flying in formation to students working on a group project, the functioning of a group requires not only coordination and communication but also trust—each member must be confident in the others. The same is true ...
Medical Xpress / Sleep cleans the brain: Researchers develop fast, non-invasive way to measure the process
Sleep helps the brain to cleanse itself—and now this process can be measured in humans entirely noninvasively. Researchers at the University of Oulu have developed a method that allows the increased movement of brain fluids ...
Phys.org / Seals use whisker movement to follow underwater trails—an approach that could improve robotic sensing
Seals are carnivorous marine mammals that are well adapted to hunting for fish underwater, where visibility is poor. In such conditions, seals rely on their highly sensitive whiskers to detect tiny water movements left behind ...
Phys.org / Study explains Antarctic sea ice growth and sudden decline
A new Stanford University study has helped solve a mystery about dramatic swings in sea ice extent around Antarctica.
Phys.org / Targeting the tiniest divide: Research reveals potential vulnerability in bacterial reproduction
A Université de Montréal study has found a previously unknown mechanism in bacterial reproduction that could be attacked by future antibiotics. Bacteria reproduce by dividing into two: they form a wall, or septum, between ...
Medical Xpress / It's kept under wraps: Sex life and breathlessness
Chronic breathlessness affects every part of a person's life—including their sex life, with people experiencing breathlessness saying they have greatly reduced satisfaction with their overall sexual life. Flinders University ...
