لندن — بدأ الأشخاص حول العالم في الانخراط في الأنشطة الخارجية بعد قضاء أغلب فصل الشتاء داخل منازلهم مصحوبًا ربما بنشاط بدني أقل مقارنةً بالمواسم الأكثر اعتدالاً. ففي مناخات أخرى، قد يبدأ الأشخاص في قضاء وقت أقل نشاطًا داخل منازلهم.تقدم جوشيا وامل، دكتورة في الطب، وحاصلة على الدكتوراه، وطبيبة القلب في مايو كلينك هيلثكير في لندن، خمس نصائح لحماية قلبك عند البدء بالانطلاق بعد فترة من الخمول.
Keck Hospital of USC earned an “A” Hospital Safety Grade from The Leapfrog Group, an independent national nonprofit watchdog focused on patient safety.
A new national survey of women in the U.S. by Cleveland Clinic, in collaboration with YouGov, highlights knowledge gaps, barriers to care, and growing interest among women in clinical research participation. The results come ahead of National Women’s Health Awareness month, which is May.
The survey revealed that many women are not aware of how certain health conditions impact women and men differently. For example, despite nearly two-thirds of Alzheimer’s disease diagnoses being in women, 32% of women believe it affects both sexes equally. Similarly, 31% of women believe stroke affects women and men equally, even though it’s more common and fatal for women. In addition, even though heart disease is the leading cause of death in both men and women in the United States, 62% of women don’t realize it impacts women and men at similar rates.
Researchers have identified a critical amino acid transporter, SlAAP6, that enhances tomato growth and salt tolerance by mediating the uptake and distribution of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). Overexpressing SlAAP6 elevated BCAA levels, boosted plant biomass, and improved stress resistance, while knockout mutants exhibited stunted growth and heightened salt sensitivity.
Research findings from Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center will be presented at ASCO 2025 May 30-June3. This tip sheet includes titles for nearly 70 sessions and presentations in which Sylvester researchers are involved.
One of the largest university-affiliate climate awards in the world, the prize is specifically calibrated to support unconventional or first-of-a-kind projects that often have difficulty getting funding.
Dense breasts contain more tissue than fat and can make breast cancer harder to detect. A Penn State Health breast imaging radiologist explains what other screening options may improve early detection.
Dr. John Talburt, a pioneer in computer science and information quality, has been named the inaugural recipient of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock’s Vision for the Future Endowed Professorship in recognition of his decades of leadership, innovation, and student mentorship.
Talburt, Acxiom chair of information quality, has been a key figure in the university’s nationally recognized Information Quality Program. With more than 200 research publications, numerous grants, patents, and collaborations across national and global platforms, he has made a lasting impact on both the academic community and the careers of countless students.
Scientists have discovered that Mn3Si2Te6 changes from an insulator to an electrically conductive metal when exposed to a magnetic field. In Mn3Si2Te6, applying a magnetic field causes a weak metallic state with trapped electrical changes to form in the material. This study examined the processes that cause this behavior.
Alon Harris, MS, PhD, FARVO, has been named the 2025 recipient of The Glaucoma Foundation’s (TGF) Robert Ritch Award for Innovation and Excellence in Glaucoma.
Over the past 100 days, the Department of Energy’s Office of Science has seen the pay off in results from decades of research investments and supported new efforts to move forward with cutting-edge technologies.
Here’s a look at some of the most recent discoveries that are helping to advance more effective and targeted treatment strategies for glioblastoma and other aggressive brain cancers.
An international team of scientists has moved beyond just “scratching the surface,” to understand how microplastics move through and impact the global ocean. For the first time, scientists have mapped microplastic distribution from the surface to the deep sea at a global scale – revealing not only where plastics accumulate, but how they infiltrate critical ocean systems.
In a study, published in JAMA Oncology, researchers at University of Michigan showed that the proportion of patients undergoing prostatectomy for the lowest-risk type of cancer dropped over fivefold between 2010 to 2024.
Transformative research offering fresh insights and treatment advancements for age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of blindness in adults over age 50, will be among the highlights showcased from May 4 - 8 at the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology’s (ARVO) 2025 Annual Meeting in Salt Lake City, Utah.
