(Press-News.org) About The Study: In this cross-sectional study, poor mental health among workers varied significantly by sociodemographic categories; significant differences among industry and occupation groups remained after adjustment. More research is needed on the effects of work-related factors on mental health, which may inform tailored treatment and prevention strategies.

Support for care economy policies by political affiliation and caregiving responsibilities
2025-06-06
About The Study: The results of this cohort study suggest that, despite some differences by political affiliation, there is high support of policies to support the adult care economy, suggesting a policy window to advance legislation and executive action to address the care needs of aging populations and populations with disabilities.

Mailed self-collection HPV tests boost cervical cancer screening rates
2025-06-06
Real-world study found self-collection tests were effective at increasing cervical cancer screening participation in underserved U.S. populations
Women who received the self-collection kits were more than twice as likely to participate in screening compared to those who received only a telephone reminder
These results could inform cervical cancer screening health policy
HOUSTON, JUNE 6, 2025 ― Mail-in self-collection tests for human papillomavirus (HPV) more than doubled cervical cancer screening participation among never- and under-screened ...
AMS announces 1,000 broadcast meteorologists certified
2025-06-06
The American Meteorological Society (AMS) today announced it has awarded its 1,000th AMS Certified Broadcast Meteorologist (CBM) designation. Since 2005, on-air meteorologists have displayed the AMS CBM seal to denote their expertise not only in weather-related communication but also in meteorological science and forecasting.
“The CBM indicates that your weather broadcaster is a scientist who understands meteorology and forecasting, and who has achieved our standard of excellence in communicating technically sound knowledge to the public in a clear and responsible manner,” says Kelly Savoie, Director of Career Development ...
Many Americans unaware high blood pressure usually has no noticeable symptoms
2025-06-06
Hypertension or high blood pressure, which can lead to heart attack and stroke, the two top causes of death in the United States, is one of the most widespread chronic illnesses in America, afflicting nearly half of adults. In a recent Annenberg Public Policy Center (APPC) health survey, 35% of respondents report having been diagnosed with high blood pressure and two-thirds of this group say they’re somewhat or very worried about having high blood pressure.
But the survey finds that ...
IEEE study describes polymer waveguides for reliable, high-capacity optical communication
2025-06-06
Co-packaged optics (CPO) technology can integrate photonic integrated circuits (PICs) with electronic integrated circuits (EICs) like CPUs and GPUs on a single platform. This advanced technology has immense potential to improve data transmission efficiency within data centers and high-performance computing environments. CPO systems require a laser source for operation, which can be either integrated directly into the silicon photonic chips (integrated laser sources) or provided externally. While integrated laser sources allow for dense CPO integration, ensuring ...
Motor protein myosin XI is crucial for active boron uptake in plants
2025-06-06
Boron, though required only in minimal amounts, is vital for plant development. It strengthens cell walls and supports the growth of roots and shoots. Normally, boron, in the form of boric acid, is passively absorbed by plant roots and transported throughout the plant via diffusion. However, boron is often scarce in soil, particularly in arid regions, making passive absorption impossible. To combat this, plants have evolved proteins that actively transport boron from the soil into the plant. In Arabidopsis thaliana, the protein AtNIP5;1—a boric acid channel ...
Ultra-selective aptamers give viruses a taste of their own medicine
2025-06-06
We have all heard of antibodies – proteins produced by our bodies to bind to viruses or bacteria, marking them for elimination by the immune system. But not all of us are familiar with aptamers: short segments of DNA or RNA that are designed to bind, like antibodies, to specific targets. Synthetic and inexpensive to produce, aptamers are attractive alternatives to antibodies for biomedical diagnostics and therapeutics.
When new aptamer binders are needed, for example to detect a new virus, they are developed from libraries of millions of nucleic acid sequences from which the best matches for a given target are selected and amplified. ...
How the brain distinguishes between ambiguous hypotheses
2025-06-06
CAMBRIDGE, MA -- When navigating a place that we’re only somewhat familiar with, we often rely on unique landmarks to help make our way. However, if we’re looking for an office in a brick building, and there are many brick buildings along our route, we might use a rule like looking for the second building on a street, rather than relying on distinguishing the building itself.
Until that ambiguity is resolved, we must hold in mind that there are multiple possibilities (or hypotheses) for where we are in relation to our destination. In a study of mice, MIT neuroscientists have now discovered that these hypotheses are explicitly represented in the brain ...
New AI reimagines infectious disease forecasting
2025-06-06
A new AI tool to predict the spread of infectious disease outperforms existing state-of-the-art forecasting methods.
The tool, created with federal support by researchers at Johns Hopkins and Duke universities, could revolutionize how public health officials predict, track and manage outbreaks of infectious diseases including flu and COVID-19.
“COVID-19 elucidated the challenge of predicting disease spread due to the interplay of complex factors that were constantly changing,” said author ...
Scientific community urges greater action against the silent rise of liver diseases
2025-06-06
During the first meeting of the Global Think-tank on Steatotic Liver Disease, supported by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) and held in the Palau Macaya of Barcelona on 5–6 June, more than 100 international experts issued a stark warning: millions of people will continue to go unseen by healthcare systems unless early detection and person-centred care for liver disease are prioritised without delay.
A common but invisible disease
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects around 33% of adults globally. Its more aggressive form, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), is estimated to affect 5% of the general ...
