According to statistics, one in four adults will suffer a stroke during their lifetime, and approximately half will suffer complications such as paralysis, speech impairment, and other complications. These conditions occur because internal bleeding…
US physicists have theoretically demonstrated the fundamental feasibility of building a neutrino laser. The idea is based on the phenomenon of superradiance in a radioactive Bose-Einstein condensate. The scientists calculated that the condensate contains approximately a million…
Jinqi Wang of Capital Medical University in Beijing and colleagues from Australia, China, and the United States conducted a longitudinal cohort study and found that childhood loneliness was associated with…
Researchers from the Global Burden of Disease Collaboration conducted a systematic assessment and modeling of diabetes diagnosis and treatment in 204 countries and territories from 2000 to 2023. According to their data, only a few…
Researchers have discovered that ancient people living on the northern coast of modern-day Chile consumed tobacco at least six thousand years ago. This is indicated by cotinine, a nicotine metabolite, which is preserved in…
The metabolic impact of type 2 diabetes on the human heart is poorly understood. Scientists have disparate data. For example, it is known that glucose uptake increases in heart failure, but diabetes reduces the sensitivity of glucose transporters…
The study divided participants from Taiwan, Denmark, and Sweden into age cohorts spanning the 1930s to the 1990s. Researchers assessed the spouses' prevalence of one of nine mental disorders: schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and...
Clopidogrel is more effective than aspirin in preventing heart attacks and strokes, according to scientists from ten countries led by Marco Valgimigli of the University of Italy-Swiss Switzerland. The researchers conducted a meta-analysis of seven clinical trials…
Physicists have discovered that ordinary ice exhibits flexoelectric properties, generating electricity when subjected to bending deformations. The scientists attributed this behavior to a ferroelectric phase transition in a surface layer just 15-20 nanometers thick. The physicists' work…
