(Press-News.org) About The Study: In this large U.S. cohort study of children and adolescents, SARS-CoV-2 infection was associated with a higher risk of adverse postacute kidney outcomes, particularly among those with preexisting chronic kidney disease or acute kidney injury, suggesting the need for vigilant long-term monitoring.

Risk factors for severe disease among children hospitalized with RSV
2025-04-11
About The Study: In this cohort study of children hospitalized with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in 2022 and 2023, severe RSV disease was more likely among those age 2 or older with pulmonary and neurologic, neuromuscular, or developmental conditions. For children younger than 2 years, age younger than 6 months and prematurity were the main risk factors. These findings support prevention strategies for all younger children, including premature infants, with potential benefit for children age 2 or older ...
Watch a live catalytic event in real time
2025-04-11
A Northwestern University-led international team of scientists has, for the first time, directly observed catalysis in-action at the atomic level.
In mesmerizing new videos, single atoms move and shake during a chemical reaction that removes hydrogen atoms from an alcohol molecule. By viewing the process in real time, the researchers discovered several short-lived intermediate molecules involved in the reaction as well as a previously hidden reaction pathway.
The observations were made possible by single-molecule atomic-resolution time-resolved electron microscopy (SMART-EM), a powerful instrument that enables researchers to watch individual ...

Protein GSK3β offers new angle on overcoming melanoma drug resistance
2025-04-11
“Inhibitors of GSK3β reduce the cell viability of BRAFi-resistant melanoma cell lines and thus may holds promise as a novel strategy to overcome BRAFi resistance and melanoma progression.”
BUFFALO, NY – April 11, 2025 – A new research perspective was published in Oncotarget, Volume 16, on April 4, 2025, titled “GSK3β activation is a key driver of resistance to Raf inhibition in BRAF mutant melanoma cells.”
In this work, first author Diana Crisan and corresponding author Abhijit Basu from the University Hospital Ulm led ...
Mimickers and associated neoplasms of Castleman disease
2025-04-11
Castleman disease (CD) is a rare, non-clonal lymphoproliferative disorder that manifests with a wide range of histologic and clinical features. It is classified clinically into unicentric (UCD) and multicentric (MCD) forms and histopathologically into hyaline vascular (HV-CD), plasma cell (PC-CD), and mixed types. UCD typically presents as an isolated lymph node enlargement, often asymptomatic, whereas MCD involves multiple nodal sites and systemic symptoms. MCD may be associated with human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8), idiopathic origins (iMCD), POEMS syndrome, or TAFRO ...
Preserving and using the deep sea: scientists call for more knowledge to enable sustainable management
2025-04-11
Where does the deep sea begin? Definitions vary across science and legal frameworks. For the purposes of their joint analysis, the members of the European Marine Board’s (EMB) Deep Sea and Ocean Health Working Group defined the deep sea as the water column and seabed below 200 metres. Below this point, sunlight barely penetrates the water, and the habitat changes dramatically. According to this definition, the deep sea accounts for about 90 per cent of the ocean’s volume. Its importance for ...
Breaking the cycle: unveiling how childhood trauma fuels parenting and abuse
2025-04-11
Childhood maltreatment (CM) is a complex issue that is often passed on through generations. Studies have shown that parents who were abused as children may perpetuate a similar pattern of mistreating their children, creating a vicious cycle of abuse. A key factor in perpetuating this cycle is impaired empathy in parents who grew up in abusive environments. Simply put, parental empathy, the ability to understand and respond to children’s emotions, plays a critical role in effective parenting. In fact, children who experience abuse tend to have reduced empathy by the age ...
A new era in materials science: antiferromagnetic quasicrystals unveiled
2025-04-11
Quasicrystals (QCs) are fascinating solid materials that exhibit an intriguing atomic arrangement. Unlike regular crystals, in which atomic arrangements have an ordered repeating pattern, QCs display long-range atomic order that is not periodic. Due to this ‘quasiperiodic’ nature, QCs have unconventional symmetries that are absent in conventional crystals. Since their Nobel Prize-winning discovery, condensed matter physics researchers have dedicated immense attention towards QCs, attempting to both realize their unique quasiperiodic magnetic order and ...
From boring to bursting: a giant black hole awakens
2025-04-11
Although we know that supermassive black holes (millions of times the mass of our Sun) lurk at the centre of most galaxies, their very nature makes them difficult to spot and study. In contrast to the popular idea of black holes constantly ‘gobbling up’ matter, these gravitational monsters can spend long periods of time in a dormant, inactive phase.
This was true of the black hole at the heart of SDSS1335+0728, a distant and unremarkable galaxy 300 million light-years away in the constellation of Virgo. After being inactive for decades, it suddenly lit up and recently began producing unprecedented flashes of X-ray light.
The first signs ...
Illuminating the twist: light-driven inversion of supramolecular chirality
2025-04-11
Self-assembly or self-organization in molecular science refers to the phenomena where molecules spontaneously gather and form ordered structures, a unique property of materials used to develop optical and electronic materials. In a step towards fine-tuning this property, researchers from Japan successfully elucidated a technique where a small amount of residual aggregates drastically altered the self-assembly process of photo-responsive molecules. The research team was led by Professor Shiki Yagai from the Graduate School of Engineering, Chiba University, including Assistant Professor ...
