(Press-News.org) About The Study: The results of this study suggest an association between cannabis use disorder and benign salivary gland tumors. Future prospective research with large samples and data on cannabis dosing, method of use, and benign salivary gland neoplasm pathology is required to further assess and confirm this association.

Public perception of physicians who use AI
2025-07-17
About The Study: In line with prior research, the results of this study indicate that the public has certain reservations about the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in health care. While the present effect sizes are relatively small, in particular regarding AI use for administrative purposes, they may be highly relevant as trust in health care practitioners is closely linked to subjective treatment outcomes.

Animal behavior: Dog TV viewing habits vary by personality
2025-07-17
The way household dogs engage with TV may depend on their personalities, suggests research published in Scientific Reports. Excitable dogs were more likely to follow on-screen objects while fearful or anxious dogs were more likely to respond to stimuli such as cars or a doorbell, with the dogs surveyed watching TV for an average of 14 minutes and eight seconds.
There has been an increase in dog-specific television programming in recent years and the frequency with which dogs are exposed to different forms of media is increasing. However, to date there has been no systematic assessment of the way in which pet dogs engage with TV at the population-level.

The secret to resolutions? Enjoy the pursuit, not the outcome
2025-07-17
ITHACA, N.Y. — Why is it so hard to stick to New Year’s resolutions all year long? A new study from Cornell University has found an answer: The key to achieving goals is less about the outcome and more about enjoying the journey.
The findings, published July 15 in Psychological Science, challenge the assumption that if a goal is important or valuable, we’ll naturally be more likely to stick with it. Instead, they show people are more likely to stay committed to resolutions that are fun, engaging, and personally rewarding.

How do the SOx and NOx in flue gas influence the adsorptive-catalytic performance of integrated carbon capture and in situ dry reforming?
2025-07-17
Integrated carbon capture and utilization has become a promising technology to achieve carbon neutrality. However, conventional studies focused on the development of novel dual-functional materials while neglecting the impact of common impurities such as sulfur oxides (SOx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), thereby limiting the practical industrial applicability of ICCU technology. A team of scientists has investigated the impact of SO2 and NO2 on the ICCU-dry reforming of methane (ICCU-DRM) process using a representative Ni-Ca dual-functional material. Their work is published in the journal Industrial Chemistry & Materials on 04 July 2025.

Brain cancer discoveries earn UVA's Sontheimer international accolade
2025-07-17
The University of Virginia School of Medicine’s Harald Sontheimer, PhD, and Stanford’s Michelle Monje, MD, PhD, have received the 2025 International Prize in Translational Neuroscience from the Gertrud Reemtsma Foundation for their pioneering research in the emerging field of cancer neuroscience.
In announcing this year’s recipients, the foundation noted that Sontheimer and Monie’s work has “fundamentally changed our understanding of brain tumors” and opened ...
World Health Organization reporting system for soft tissue cytopathology
2025-07-17
Background and objectives
Soft tissue cytopathology plays a vital role in the diagnosis and management of soft tissue neoplasms, necessitating a standardized classification system to improve diagnostic accuracy and guide clinical decision-making. This article provides a concise review of the World Health Organization (WHO) Reporting System for Soft Tissue Cytopathology and presents a practical diagnostic approach to soft tissue cytopathology.
Methods
The WHO Reporting System is reviewed in conjunction with relevant literature. The reporting system employs a six-category framework: non-diagnostic, benign, atypical, soft tissue neoplasm of uncertain malignant potential, suspicious ...
New aging clock predicts early risk of muscle loss in older adults
2025-07-17
“Non-sarcopenic, community-dwelling middle-aged and older adults could be validly classified in terms of their individual musculoskeletal ageing trajectories with a novel muscular clock, MAA.”
BUFFALO, NY — July 17, 2025 — A new research paper was published in Aging (Aging-US) Volume 17, Issue 6, on June 9, 2025, titled “Developing a quantitative estimate of muscle age acceleration by a novel phenotypic clock: cross-sectional study in healthy, middle-aged and older adults.”
In this study, led by first authors Lucia Ventura, Antonella Cano and Marco Morrone, along with corresponding ...
Does being a proficient swimmer mean you are safe in the water?
2025-07-17
Learning to swim is important, especially in a country like Norway, where many people live near the coast, a river, or a lake. For this reason, swimming instruction is included in the physical education curriculum in primary and lower secondary schools.
But does the swimming instruction children in Norway receive actually help when the knowledge and skills are needed the most?
“In Norway, swimming instruction mainly takes place in stable, controlled and predictable environments, such as heated swimming pools,” explained Jon Sundan, from the ...
Older adults and AI: Poll suggests a wary welcome
2025-07-17
The artificial intelligence revolution hasn’t passed older adults by, a new poll suggests. But the data show that people over 50 have both curiosity and skepticism about AI, depending on how much they’ve used it, the data show.
No matter what their level of experience with AI, nearly all people over 50 (92%) say they want to know when the information they read, see or hear is AI-generated, according to the new findings from the University of Michigan National Poll on Healthy Aging.
In all, just over half (55%) of people age 50 and older have ever used an AI technology ...
