International balance of power determined by Chinese control over emerging technologies, study shows
2024-04-22
The fierce competition between China and the United States of America for control of emerging technologies such as AI and 5G will determine the international balance of power, a new study says.
Developments in quantum computing, the Internet of Things, and Big Data have transformed the global order and have led to new alliances and dynamics, the analysis shows.
Forming new allies has become imperative for the USA because the country cannot address the challenges posed by China in isolation. This has involved sharing sensitive advanced technologies with national security and ...
New writing therapy helps late-stage cancer patients face biggest fears
2024-04-22
Imagine your greatest fear.
Now, write it down and tell it in first-person, as if it’s happening right now. Vividly describe what it looks, sounds, smells, tastes and feels like. Don’t hold back.
Such an exercise could be daunting for anyone, dredging up feelings we try to avoid. But for late-stage cancer patients struggling with anxiety and other mental health issues, it can be remarkably therapeutic, new CU Boulder research has found.
“It’s often easier to write about something traumatic than to speak it out loud, especially to someone ...
National Jewish Health researchers identify connection between air pollutants and allergic diseases
2024-04-22
A new study by researchers at National Jewish Health published this month in the Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology reports that air pollutants — including particulate matter, pollen, greenhouse gases, and other harmful substances — can contribute to the development and exacerbation of allergic diseases by disrupting the skin barrier.
“People are aware of the connection between pollution and respiratory disease, but we wanted to take the next step and investigate how global warming is damaging ...
In the United States, the election of progressive prosecutors led to higher relative rates of property and overall crime, but not to higher relative rates of violent crime
2024-04-22
In the United States, the number of so-called progressive prosecutors focused on criminal justice reform has risen, but few studies have addressed the relation between these prosecutors’ policies and crime rates. In a new study, researchers examined whether progressive prosecutors in the 100 most populated counties affected crime rates from 2000 to 2020. They found that the inauguration of these prosecutors led to higher relative rates of property crime and total crime, but not to higher relative rates of violent crime.
The study was conducted by researchers ...
European Court of Human Rights is “backsliding” on legal protections for asylum seekers, study says
2024-04-22
The European Court of Human Rights is “backsliding” by surreptitiously reversing its principles established to protect asylum seekers, a new study says.
It is a decade since the Court first established that asylum seekers are inherently and particularly vulnerable in law.
The research shows that in recent years the Court has moved away from this position, albeit without actually acknowledging this or explaining why. The research warns that it is now uncertain what exactly is needed for any particular asylum applicant to be judged as sufficiently vulnerable to receive special protection under the European Convention on Human Rights.

Treatment from female doctors leads to lower mortality and hospital readmission rates
2024-04-22
Patients have lower rates of mortality and hospital readmissions when treated by female physicians, with female patients benefitting more than their male counterparts, new research suggests.
The mortality rate for female patients was 8.15% when treated by female physicians vs. 8.38% when the physician was male—a clinically significant difference, the researchers found. While the difference for male patients was smaller, female physicians still had the edge with a 10.15% mortality rate compared with male doctors’ 10.23% rate.
The researchers ...
Historically redlined areas see more modern-day gun violence
2024-04-22
In the 1930s, the United States government introduced redlining, a discriminatory practice that categorized neighborhoods based on people’s race or ethnicity and denied financial services to residents in certain areas—redlining disproportionately affected marginalized communities. While redlining was officially outlawed in 1968, new research from Boston Children’s Hospital suggests a relationship between historic redlining and present-day gun violence.
“We found a significant, dose-dependent correlation between discriminatory designations from the 1930s and the incidence of non-suicide firearm fatalities ...
Bonobos aren’t as peace-loving as we thought
2024-04-22
The endangered bonobo, the great ape of the Central African rainforest, has a reputation for being a bit of a hippie. Known as more peaceful than their warring chimpanzee neighbors, bonobos live in matriarchal societies, engage in recreational sex, and display signs of cooperation both inside and outside their immediate social groups.
But this relaxed reputation isn’t quite reality, according to a new Harvard study in Current Biology. Observing bonobos and chimps in their natural environments over roughly three years, researchers found that actual rates of aggressive acts among male bonobos were notably higher than among male chimps.
“These ...
Abdominal obesity might predict risk of fecal incontinence
2024-04-22
Fecal incontinence (FI), or involuntary loss of bowel control, significantly impacts quality of life and mental health for millions of adults in the U.S. Obesity is thought to affect bowel function, but the relationship between its standardized measure, body mass index (BMI), and FI remains unclear. Examining better markers of obesity that include body composition and fat distribution, rather than BMI alone, could help clarify the effect of obesity on FI.
Investigators from Brigham and Women’s Hospital, a founding member of the Mass General ...
