(Press-News.org) About The Study: In this retrospective cohort study of pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest in a large, national, administrative dataset, children of racial and ethnic minority groups receiving cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) had higher odds of in-hospital mortality. In addition, the odds of in-hospital mortality among children receiving CPR were higher at hospitals with the highest proportion of Black patients.

High-intensity exercise and hippocampal integrity in adults with cannabis use disorder
2025-09-10
About The Study: This trial found that a 12-week high-intensity interval training intervention did not improve hippocampal integrity or associated cognitive or mental health impairments while people continued to consume cannabis. However, results indicated that people with cannabis use disorder can engage in regular physical exercise programs and highlighted exercise as a potential strategy to reduce cannabis craving.

“Brain dial” for consumption found in mice
2025-09-10
NEW YORK — It’s natural to crave sugar when you feel tired and want a boost of energy. Now scientists at Columbia University’s Zuckerman Institute have linked a brain area in mice to the drive to consume not just sweets, but fats, salt and food. The findings show this area serves as a kind of dial that can amplify or repress consumption.
This discovery, detailed today in Cell, may inform novel treatments for both overeating and undereating. For instance, the results suggest that finding ways to modulate this brain circuit may help treat people suffering from the severe loss of appetite and muscle wasting often seen in large numbers of chemotherapy patients.

Lung cancer rewires immune cells in the bone marrow to weaken body’s defenses
2025-09-10
New York, NY [September 10, 2025]—Lung tumors don’t just evade the immune system. They reshape it at its source. Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and collaborators report in the September 10 online issue of Nature [10.1038/s41586-025-09493-y] that tumors rewire immune cells in the bone marrow before they even reach the cancer, suggesting a new target to enhance the durability of current immunotherapy.
Immunotherapies, which rally the body’s defenses against cancer, have transformed care for many ...
Researchers find key to Antarctic ice loss blowing in the north wind
2025-09-10
Most of the Earth’s fresh water is locked in the ice that covers Antarctica. As the ocean and atmosphere grow warmer, that ice is melting at a startling pace with sea levels and global currents changing in response. To understand the potential implications, researchers need to know just how fast the ice is disappearing, and what is driving it back.
The West Antarctic ice sheet, an unstable expanse bordering the Amundsen Sea, is one of the greatest sources of uncertainty in climate projections. Records indicate that it has been steadily shrinking since the 1940s, but key details are missing. Using environmental data gathered from ice samples, tree rings and corals, ...
Ten years after the discovery, gravitational waves verify Stephen Hawking's Black Hole Area Theorem

EMBARGOED UNTIL 8AM PACIFIC TIME/11AM EASTERN TIME, SEPTEMBER 10
On September 14, 2015, a signal arrived on Earth, carrying information about a pair of remote black holes that had spiraled together and merged. The signal had traveled about 1.3 billion years to reach us at the speed of light—but it was not made of light. It was a different kind of signal: a quivering of space-time called gravitational waves, first predicted by Albert Einstein 100 years prior. On that day 10 years ago, the twin detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory ...
Researchers uncover potential biosignatures on Mars
2025-09-10
A new study co-authored by Texas A&M University geologist Dr. Michael Tice has revealed potential chemical signatures of ancient Martian microbial life in rocks examined by NASA’s Perseverance rover.
The findings, published by a large international team of scientists, focus on a region of Jezero Crater known as the Bright Angel formation — a name chosen from locations in Grand Canyon National Park because of the light-colored Martian rocks. This area in Mars’ Neretva Vallis channel contains fine-grained mudstones rich in oxidized iron (rust), phosphorus, sulfur and ...
Built to learn: how early brain structure primes the brain to learn efficiently
2025-09-10
Vision happens when patterns of light entering the eye are converted into reliable patterns of brain activity. This reliability allows the brain to recognize the same object each time it is seen. Our brains, however, are not born with this ability; instead, we develop it through visual experience. Collaborating scientists at MPFI and the Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies have recently discovered key circuit changes that lead to the maturation of reliable brain activity patterns. Their findings, published in Neuron this week, are likely generalizable beyond vision, providing a ...
Cells use electricity to eliminate their ‘weakest’ neighbours to maintain healthy protective barriers
2025-09-10
Researchers have uncovered a surprising role for electricity in keeping our body’s protective cell layers healthy.
Cells bumping against one another use electricity to identify which of their neighbours has the least energy to kill them.
The King’s College London study in partnership with the Francis Crick Institute provides insight into diseases including cancer and stroke, where cellular energy levels can be disrupted, preventing the maintenance of healthy cell numbers.
Epithelial cells, which line all organs in the body, turnover rapidly to maintain a tightly packed protective layer. They undergo a process called ‘extrusion’ ...
New motion-compensation approach delivers sharper single-pixel imaging for dynamic scenes
2025-09-10
WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed a motion-compensation method that allows single-pixel imaging to capture sharp images of complex dynamic scenes. The new approach could expand the practical utility of this computational imaging method by enabling clearer images of moving targets and improving the quality of surveillance images.
Single-pixel imaging uses a single detector, rather than the traditional array of pixels, to acquire images. Although it offers several advantages, such as high sensitivity ...
