About The Study: In this cohort study, oseltamivir treatment during influenza episodes was associated with a reduced risk of serious neuropsychiatric events among children and adolescents. These findings support oseltamivir use for prevention of these influenza-related complications.

About The Study: In this randomized clinical trial, among East Asian adults with overweight or obesity, with or without type 2 diabetes, oral semaglutide, 50 mg, led to a superior and clinically meaningful reduction in body weight compared with placebo, with a safety profile consistent with the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist class.

About The Study: This study found that nearly 17 million adolescents and young adults were eligible for glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) therapy. One in 5 young adults eligible for GLP-1RAs were uninsured and one-third denied having a routine place for health care—a barrier to identifying, treating, and preventing cardio-kidney-metabolic diseases.

A new study from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus finds that older adults become more socially active after moving into long-term care communities like nursing homes or assisted living facilities but we might not all benefit equally.
The study was published today in JAMA Internal Medicine.
Researchers analyzed data from more than 600 Americans aged 65 and older who moved into a nursing home or assisted living facility between 2011 and 2019 through the National Health and Aging Trends Study. The average participant was 85-years-old when they moved.
“Long-term care communities can be an important source of help ...

A team of Chinese researchers led by Prof. GAO Caixia from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed two new genome editing technologies, known collectively as Programmable Chromosome Engineering (PCE) systems.
The study, published online in Cell on August 4, achieves multiple types of precise DNA manipulations ranging from kilobase to megabase scale in higher organisms, especially plants.
Extensive research has demonstrated the immense potential of the site-specific recombinase Cre-Lox ...

PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown University] — A new $16.5 million award from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) will enable Brown University’s Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics (ICERM) to continue its mission of supporting groundbreaking research at the intersection of computation and mathematics for the next five years.
“Progress is made in mathematics when people come together to share ideas,” said ICERM Director Brendan Hassett, a professor of mathematics at Brown. “For 15 years, ICERM has sponsored programs that not only spur progress in math, but also make important connections with computer ...

McGill University researchers have developed and are licensing a digital tool to help safely reduce patients’ use of medications that may be unnecessary or even harmful to them.
When clinicians review a patient’s file, MedSafer flags potentially inappropriate medications. In a new clinical trial, the software helped deprescribe such medications in 36 per cent of long-term care residents, nearly triple as many as when reviews were done without the tool.
“Sometimes we blame aging for memory loss or mobility issues when the real culprit is the ...

A team from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem has developed a low-cost, non-invasive method to estimate total leaf area in dwarf tomato plants using 3D reconstruction from standard video footage. The study applies structure-from-motion techniques and machine learning to predict plant growth with remarkable accuracy. This innovative approach eliminates the need for expensive sensors or destructive sampling, making precision agriculture more accessible. The method holds promise for scaling crop monitoring across greenhouses and open fields alike.

Due to rapid advancement of aerospace industry, severe aerodynamic heating phenomenon results in the service temperature of thermal insulation component above 2000°C. However, common oxide thermal insulation materials cannot survive in elevated ultrahigh temperature due to their relatively low melting points. Hence, it is urgent and necessary to develop new ultrahigh-temperature insulation materials with low density, high strength, extremely low thermal conductivity, and outstanding thermal stability. As is well known, ultrahigh-temperature ceramic (UHTC) is a series of promising ultrahigh-temperature thermal ...

Over the past decade, the number of picture books that parents can read to young children about personal boundaries and saying “no” to inappropriate touching has ballooned, as attention to preventing sexual abuse grows.
But many of the books contain “key gaps” in teaching concepts experts recommend to help children begin to understand consent, according to a study by a pair of Washington State University researchers.
They analyzed more than 100 picture books for children ages 3-8, comparing them against key tenets of consent education and child abuse prevention identified in past research. Most of the books conveyed messages aligned with some of those tenets, such as ...
