Medical Xpress / Aspirin matches costlier blood thinners after hip and knee replacement surgery, major trial finds
Joint replacements are among the most common surgeries worldwide, and preventing blood clots is critical to recovery. A Dalhousie-led study published this month—one of the most robust of its kind to date—found that a straightforward ...
Medical Xpress / Nearly 1.6 million dozen eggs pulled from shelves over Salmonella concerns
Nearly 1.6 million dozen eggs sold across the South and Southwest are being recalled because they may be contaminated with Salmonella.
Phys.org / Decades-old strains reveal Brakhagea, a budding bacterial genus with bioactive potential
Some microorganisms that hold great promise for research have long lain dormant in historical collections. But only through new methods are their diversity and potential becoming apparent. The team led by Professor Christian ...
Tech Xplore / Common plastic additive makes stretchable OLED displays brighter and more elastic
The same class of chemical additive that makes plastic wrap pliable and vinyl flooring soft could be the key to unlocking the next generation of wearable displays. Researchers at the University of Chicago Pritzker School ...
Phys.org / New 'demon' cavefish lineage discovered in Alabama cave
For decades, scientists have crawled through Bobcat Cave on Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, searching its dark pools and underground passages for rare life. The cave is home to the endangered Alabama cave shrimp, making it ...
Phys.org / Brain-inspired nanopore device uses current-induced heating for memory operations
Some researchers are leaning into biology for inspiration in computing. In particular, neuromorphic computing offers a brain-inspired approach to hardware that replaces traditional binary processing with systems that function ...
Medical Xpress / Burden of myocardial dysfunction elevated for individuals with psoriasis
Individuals with psoriasis have a higher burden of myocardial dysfunction, independent of cardiometabolic risk, according to a study published online July 17 in the Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology.
Tech Xplore / Programmable metasurface turns keyboard commands into dynamic holograms in milliseconds
Metasurfaces are ultrathin optical components engineered with arrays of nanoscale structures that can control light in ways that are difficult for conventional optics. Unlike traditional optical components, which typically ...
Phys.org / Shifting weather patterns drive 55% of Europe's summer drought trend, study finds
In a new study, researchers at Leipzig University have identified a major cause of the unusually severe summer soil drying and rising temperatures across Europe. They found that much of the trend can be attributed to changes ...
Tech Xplore / Deep-sea sponge geometry strengthens metamaterials and suppresses flow-driven vibrations
Along the vast ocean floor lives a species of glass sponge known as Venus' flower basket. Though delicate-looking, its exterior belies an exceptionally strong, lightweight skeleton that has intrigued scientists for the past ...
