Of more than 500 occupations in the United States, flight attendants and pilots have the highest and second-highest proportion of radiation-related cancer deaths, a new study has found.
Researchers found a "genetic switch" that triggers neurodegeneration in both a rare childhood dementia and Alzheimer's disease due to waste build-up in microglia. They may now be able to prevent neuro
Doctors Found 4 Autoimmune Diseases in One Woman at One Time: 40-year-old woman in China was already diagnosed with 3 - ulcerative colitis, autoimmune hepatitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis. She
Reawakening exhausted natural killer cells to help T cells shrinks resistant ovarian tumors. Charles University's Second Faculty of Medicine researchers triggered this cancer-killing response by pairi
A rare childhood leukemia (ETV6::RUNX1-like) behaves aggressively, carries a high relapse risk, and surprisingly affects 12% of Down syndrome patients. Researchers at Charles University's Second Facul
Climate modeling suggests the AMOC may not have a fixed temperature threshold for collapse: it remained stable beyond 5°C under slow warming but collapsed around 2°C under faster warming, indicating t
Blocking the inflammatory enzyme caspase-1 reduced lung tumor development in high-risk mice, while combining a caspase-1 inhibitor with an IL-1 beta antibody prevented tumors entirely in nearly 20% of
Women globally place higher importance on moral identity than men. The researchers analyzed data from 46,490 adults across 67 countries. Broad cross-cultural evidence indicates that women, on average,
Screening dried blood spots from a Michigan birth cohort of nearly 2,000 children, researchers found roughly 1 in 27,000 babies had a genetic variant tied to early-onset cancer.
These tiny drones are powered by sound: Engineers have designed acoustic cavities that convert sound waves into thrust, propelling small robots and ultralight aerial vehicles without on-board actuator
Diamond melts at about 7,300 K when compressed to three times the pressure at Earth’s core, a lower temperature than earlier experiments found and one that finally agrees with quantum-mechanical predi
Scientists increasingly dependent on ‘black-box’ tools they do not understand | Scientists are increasingly relying on powerful data sources and tools that they often cannot fully understand, inspect
