Medical Xpress / Mindfulness-based therapy for opioid misuse can offer massive return on investment
A new economic evaluation from the University of California San Diego School of Medicine has revealed that Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement (MORE)—an innovative, evidence-based, neuroscience-informed therapy for ...
Medical Xpress / MRI metric identifies early, multifactorial white matter damage in Alzheimer's disease
Alzheimer's disease has traditionally been studied as a condition that primarily affects the brain's gray matter, where neuronal cell bodies are located and some of the disease's most characteristic lesions accumulate. However, ...
Medical Xpress / Medical AI benefits vary by expertise, with nonexperts more easily misled
A one-size-fits-all approach likely isn't the best strategy when designing artificial intelligence systems that assist users in disease diagnosis.
Phys.org / Underground fungal networks come into 3D view without disturbing plant roots
Symbioses between plants and fungi are essential for most plants. Fungal structures known as mycorrhizae extend the area from which plants can draw water and nutrients from the soil. In return, plants supply the fungi with ...
Medical Xpress / The value of a refusal: Research targets engagement gaps in opioid overdose care
The most important people in a clinical trial may be the ones who never join it. Every "no" in a clinical trial is usually treated as the end of a conversation, but a new MUSC study suggests it might be the beginning of an ...
Phys.org / Quantum computer completes verified task beyond practical reach of classical simulations
IBM and researchers from the University of Chicago announced a demonstration in quantum computing that meets the fundamental criteria for "quantum advantage"—the point where quantum computers can be confirmed to have outperformed ...
Phys.org / Egg oiling offers a targeted way to reduce raven predation on vulnerable prey
Common ravens are intelligent omnivores that regularly consume the eggs and young of nesting birds, and their populations are boosted by human-provided food and nesting resources. This has resulted in elevated predation by ...
Phys.org / Metal deposits reveal how ice ages reshaped oxygen levels across Earth's oceans
Earth's oceans repeatedly lost oxygen and produced metal deposits during the planet's deepest ice ages. An international team of researchers analyzed manganese and other chemical signatures preserved in more than 27,000 ancient ...
Phys.org / Pixel patterns harness diffraction for faster, more accurate nanoscale 3D printing
Researchers at the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering have developed a new approach to nanoscale 3D printing that improves both speed and fidelity, overcoming a challenge that has limited the technology's ...
Phys.org / Two Arctic charr populations evolved in less than a century, study finds
Evolution, the process through which animals and other living organisms change their inherited traits over time, typically unfolds slowly over thousands or even millions of years. Some species, however, can adapt at a faster ...
Medical Xpress / Meningococcal B vaccine linked to lower gonorrhea risk
The meningococcal B (MenB) vaccine could provide protection against more than one disease, with new research linking it to a significant reduction in the risk of gonorrhea in young Territorians. The study, led by Adelaide ...
Tech Xplore / New study highlights the weather-driven costs of 24/7 clean power matching
As demand for electricity surges from artificial intelligence, data centers and other new technologies, companies are increasingly pledging to procure carbon-free electricity to mitigate emissions associated with their electricity ...
