Depression and anxiety symptoms in adults displaced by natural disasters

JAMA Network Open

2025-08-22
(Press-News.org) About The Study: This study found that, in U.S. adults, disaster-induced displacement from home was associated with increased odds of depression and anxiety symptoms, with the highest odds among those who never returned home. There is an urgent need to address mental health care for populations displaced by natural disasters, particularly socially vulnerable populations.

Cardiovascular health at the intersection of race and gender in Medicare fee for service

2025-08-22
About The Study: This cross-sectional study found that Asian and Pacific Islander, Black, and Hispanic transgender and gender diverse beneficiaries had a high prevalence of cardiovascular-related conditions and had an elevated prevalence of several conditions, attributable to the intersection of gender, race, and ethnicity. Medicare should use the tools at its disposal to support the health of transgender and gender diverse beneficiaries. Corresponding Author: To contact the corresponding author, Gray Babbs, MPH, ...

World’s first observation of the transverse Thomson effect

2025-08-22
For the first time in the world, a joint research team from NIMS, Nagoya University and The University of Tokyo has successfully observed the transverse Thomson effect—a phenomenon in which metals or semiconductors release or absorb heat when a heat current, charge current and magnetic field are applied orthogonally to each other. This achievement may contribute to advances in physics and materials science related to the conversion between heat, electricity and magnetism, as well as to the development of new thermal management technologies. The research was published in Nature ...

Powerful nodes for quantum networks

2025-08-22
Quantum networks are often described as the future of the internet — but instead of transmitting classical information in bits, they send quantum information carried by photons. These networks could enable ultra-secure communication, link together distant quantum computers into a single, vastly more powerful machine, and create precision sensing systems that can measure time or environmental conditions with unprecedented accuracy. To make such a network possible, so-called quantum network nodes — that can store ...

Mapping fat: How microfluidics and mass spectrometry reveal lipid landscapes in tiny worms

2025-08-22
Understanding how fat molecules are distributed and function in living organisms is key to uncovering mechanisms of aging, disease, and metabolism. Caenorhabditis elegans, a transparent roundworm, is a widely used model for studying fat storage due to its genetic similarity to humans and well-defined anatomy. However, visualizing lipids at high resolution in such a small organism has posed a major technical challenge.   A research team at Okayama University, Japan, led by Professor Masazumi Fujiwara and his PhD student Ms. Sara Mandic, in collaboration with Professor Ron M. A. Heeren of ...

ATOX1 promotes hepatocellular carcinoma carcinogenesis via activation of the c-Myb/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway

2025-08-22
Background and Aims Despite advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Antioxidant-1 (ATOX1) has been implicated in oncogenic processes across various cancer types; however, its specific role in HCC remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the function of ATOX1 and its underlying molecular mechanisms in HCC. Methods Immunohistochemical analysis was conducted to assess ATOX1 expression in HCC tissues. Cell Counting ...

Colibactin-producing E. coli linked to higher colorectal cancer risk in FAP patients

2025-08-22
Researchers from Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine and collaborating Japanese institutions found that patients carrying colibactin-producing Escherichia coli (pks+ E. coli) in their colon polyps were more than three times as likely to have a history of colorectal cancer compared to those without the bacterium. The findings, published in eGastroenterology, highlight a potential role for gut microbes in accelerating cancer risk in people with a strong genetic predisposition. Study Details Between 2018 and 2019, the team studied 75 FAP patients who had not yet undergone colon surgery, preserving their natural gut microbiota. Tissue samples ...

Animal protein not linked to higher mortality risk, study finds

2025-08-22
Hamilton, ON, Aug. 22, 2025–Eating animal-sourced protein foods is not linked to a higher risk of death and may even offer protective benefits against cancer-related mortality, new research finds.     The study, published in Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, analyzed data from nearly 16,000 adults aged 19 and older using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHAMES III).   Researchers examined how much animal and plant protein people ...

Satellite insights into eutrophication trends on the Qinghai–Tibet plateau

2025-08-22
This research investigates chlorophyll-a (Chla) variations in lakes across the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP), a region facing rapid warming. Using Landsat satellite data from 1986 to 2023, the study explores how climate change and human activities, such as grazing and fertilizer use, affect lake water quality. The analysis of 1,069 lakes reveals significant changes in Chla concentrations, indicating increasing eutrophication, particularly in smaller and shallower lakes. The study forecasts future Chla trends until 2100, offering valuable insights for ...

Researchers develop an innovative method for large-scale analysis of metabolites in biological samples

2025-08-22
UNDER EMBARGO UNTIL 10 AM BST / 5 AM ET FRIDAY 22 AUGUST 2025 Researchers develop an innovative method for large-scale analysis of metabolites in biological samples More images available via the link in the notes section Researchers from the McCullagh Group in Oxford University’s Department of Chemistry have published an innovative method in Nature Protocols today (22 August) that provides comprehensive analysis of metabolites found in cells, tissues and biofluids. The new method delivers a step-change in capability for analysing highly polar and ionic metabolites. The innovation comes from using anion-exchange chromatography ...

Asteroid Bennu is a time capsule of materials bearing witness to its origin and transformation over billions of years

2025-08-22
Asteroid Bennu — the target of NASA's OSIRIS-REx sample return mission, led by the University of Arizona — is a mixture of materials from throughout, and even beyond, our solar system. Over the past few billion years, its unique and varied contents have been transformed by interactions with water and the harsh space environment. These details come from a trio of newly published papers based on analysis of Bennu samples delivered to Earth by OSIRIS-REx in 2023. The OSIRIS-REx sample analysis campaign is coordinated by the U of A's Lunar and Planetary Laboratory (LPL) and involves scientists from around the world. ...
