Passive smartphone sensors for detecting psychopathology

JAMA Network Open

2025-07-03
(Press-News.org) About The Study: The findings from this study suggest that major forms of psychopathology are detectable from smartphone sensors. Insights from these results, and future research that builds on them, can potentially be translated into symptom monitoring tools that fill the gaps in current practice and may eventually lead to more precise and effective treatment.

Ireland’s first BioBrillouin microscope will enable non-invasive assessment of living cells and tissues in real-time

2025-07-03
Trinity College Dublin now has Ireland’s first and only BioBrillouin microscope, which will enable researchers to make giant strides in the fields of inflammation, cancer, developmental biology and biomedical materials, among others. Cellular and tissue mechanics are potent regulators of disease, dysfunction and regeneration, and understanding them is thus a major focus of biomedical researchers. But existing methods are invasive and limited in the information that they can provide.  However, the incredible new Brillouin microscope can map and quantify the compressibility, viscoelasticity and the detailed mechanics of materials and biological tissues, using non-invasive ...

Aligned stem cell sheets could improve regenerative therapies

2025-07-03
A new way to grow stem cells may help them release more of the signaling proteins they use to repair tissue, potentially improving future treatments. Scientists have developed a technique that aligns stem cells into a single sheet, resulting in a marked increase in the secretion of signaling proteins which help repair tissue and regulate the immune system. The new approach, described in the journal Materials Today Bio, could improve stem cell-based treatments for conditions such as heart disease, liver ...

Emergency department data show rise in hospitalizations due to pediatric clavicular fractures

2025-07-03
Journal: JSES Reviews, Reports & Techniques Title: Mechanisms and Trends of Pediatric Clavicular Fractures in the United States: A 10-Year Epidemiologic Analysis of National Injury Data Authors: Charu Jain, MD candidate at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Sheena Ranade, MD, Associate Professor of Orthopedics (Pediatric Orthopedic Surgery) at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Bottom line: Clavicular fractures are common injuries among children, usually due to sports-related trauma or accidental falls. The purpose of this study ...

A key group of cerebral amygdala neurons identified in anxiety and social disorders

2025-07-03
The Synaptic Physiology laboratory, led by Juan Lerma at the Institute for Neurosciences (IN), a joint center of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and Miguel Hernández University (UMH) of Elche, has discovered that a specific group of neurons in the amygdala, a brain region involved in emotion regulation, plays a key role in the emergence of conditions such as anxiety, depression, and altered social behavior. This study, published in iScience, shows that restoring the neuronal excitability balance in a specific area of the amygdala is enough to reverse these behaviors in mice. “We already knew the amygdala was involved in anxiety and fear, but now we've ...

What the sea spider genome reveals about their bizarre anatomy

2025-07-03
An international collaboration featuring the University of Vienna and the University of Wisconsin-Madison (USA) has led to the first-ever chromosome-level genome assembly of a sea spider (Pycnogonum litorale). The genome informs about the development of the characteristic sea spider body plan and constitutes a landmark for revealing the evolutionary history of chelicerates in general. The study was recently published in BMC Biology. Sea spiders (Pycnogonida) are marine arthropods with highly unusual anatomy: their trunk is very narrow and short, many of their internal organ systems extend into their long legs, and their ...

More people need to know how to prevent SIDS

2025-07-03
Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is the unexpected, unexplained, sudden death of a child younger than one year old. Although the number of babies born in the United States who die from SIDS annually has declined in recent decades, it is the most common cause of death among infants between one month and one year old, and some 2,300 babies die of it each year, according to Boston Children’s Hospital. Yet new health survey data from the Annenberg Public Policy Center (APPC) of the University of Pennsylvania finds that ...

Many people choose unemployment benefits over poorly paid jobs

2025-07-03
You have probably heard people say that “it should be worth our time to work”.  This is true even in Norway, where generous social welfare programs help take care of people who have ended up outside the workforce, whether involuntarily or not. “This is what we call the ‘work incentive principle’. Basically, there should always be a financial advantage to working instead of receiving unemployment benefits,” said Roberto Iacono, an associate professor at the Norwegian Univeristy of Science and Technology ...

Certain young people more prone to anxiety and depression

2025-07-03
It has long been known that loneliness is a risk factor in the development of anxiety and depression. However, the association itself has been less well studied. This is especially true during the transition from adolescence to adulthood. “Our research team investigated how loneliness in adolescence, both in isolation and in interaction with low resilience, affects anxiety and depression in young adulthood,” said Nayan Deepak Parlikar. She is a PhD candidate at the Norwegian University ...

Review article highlights urgent need for aflatoxin control strategies in Pakistan’s feed supply chain

2025-07-03
Scientists who have written in the CABI One Health journal say there is an urgent need for aflatoxin control strategies in Pakistan’s feed supply chain to improve animal health, productivity, food safety and exports of animal-based products. The researchers argue that aflatoxins – toxic metabolites produced by certain fungi – are frequently found in animal feed due to poor storage and handling practices. Their presence, they say, not only compromises animal health but also leads to transfer through contaminated milk, meat and eggs, posing serious risks to public health. A review article ...

Researchers reveal key differences in STING inhibition between humans and mice

2025-07-03
Researchers have long focused on the STING (Stimulator of Interferon Genes) pathway as a way to harness the immune system’s natural defenses against cancer. This pathway, which plays a key role in helping the body defend against potential pathogens, can be leveraged to trigger an innate immune response that targets cancer cells. However, a study published July 3 in the journal Nature Chemical Biology, led by biochemist Lingyin Li (Bluesky: @lingyinli.bsky.social), is spearheading a new school of thought. Historically, research on STING has overwhelmingly focused on activating the pathway ...
