Scientists have developed a wearable sticker, the Pneumorator™, that monitors breathing non-invasively, even without skin contact. This device detects subtle changes in respiratory rate with remarkable accuracy, offering early warnings for health deterioration in conditions like COVID-19 and sepsis. Low-cost and wireless, it aims to revolutionize healthcare by enabling continuous, real-time monitoring and faster medical interventions.
John Jumper, 2024 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry, revolutionized science with AlphaFold, an AI program predicting protein structures from genetic sequences. Initially a physicist, he embraced chemistry during his Ph.D. at UChicago. His work tackles protein folding, a key to understanding diseases and designing drugs. AlphaFold's breakthroughs transform biology, enabling rapid discoveries and advancing medicine and evolution studies.
Duke University researchers discovered that stimulating the vagus nerve can reduce gut inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by controlling a cellular process called SUMOylation. This approach, part of bioelectronic medicine, calms immune responses, alleviates symptoms and mimics drug effects. The findings offer hope for innovative, stress-targeted therapies to manage IBD's root causes, benefiting millions worldwide.
Kwango's Provincial Health Minister Apollinaire Yumba cautioned the public against coming into contact with dead bodies to prevent transmission.
A Brock University-led study reveals that a healthy diet and regular exercise during pregnancy benefit children’s emotional regulation years later. Toddlers of mothers in a prenatal nutrition and fitness program showed better self-control, longer attention spans, and fewer behavioral issues. The findings highlight how optimizing prenatal care can shape children’s mental health and development positively.
Scientists from Princeton and global collaborators have mapped the complete connectome of an adult fruit fly brain, detailing 139,255 neurons and 50 million synapses. This groundbreaking achievement, combining AI and crowdsourced proofreading, provides unprecedented insights into brain connectivity and behavior. The fruit fly's simplicity and shared traits with humans make it a powerful model for understanding brain function and diseases.
A study links diet to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) risk, showing oily fish, fruits, cereals, and vitamin D may reduce risk, while tea, coffee, and excess alcohol increase it. Moderate alcohol intake may offer protection, but balance is key. Personalized dietary advice could help prevent RA, highlighting diet’s potential role in managing this autoimmune disease alongside medical care.
