Cardiovascular health changes in young adults and risk of later-life cardiovascular disease
2025-10-06
About The Study: In this prospective cohort study of young adults, unfavorable patterns of cardiovascular health (CVH) change through young adulthood were associated with marked elevations in risk for incident cardiovascular disease (CVD). These data suggest that achieving and maintaining high CVH throughout young adulthood through strategies of primordial prevention are important for prevention of later-life CVD.

Nurse workload and missed nursing care in neonatal intensive care units
2025-10-06
About The Study: In this cross-sectional study, nurses’ subjective workload and shift-level staffing ratios exerted direct effects on reliable care delivery. High subjective workload and staffing ratios greater than 2 infants per nurse should be targets for workload reduction in neonatal intensive care units.

How to solve the remote work stalemate – dissertation offers tools for successful hybrid work
2025-10-06
The remote work debate often focuses only on leadership or the employee, but according to a new doctoral dissertation from the University of Vaasa, Finland, the prerequisites for success are found in a broader context. Johanna Jansson's research in the field of human resource management reveals that successful remote work is built on three foundations: overall organisational design, the supervisor-subordinate relationship, and the employee's own role. When these three foundations are in balance, both company ...
Chip-based phonon splitter brings hybrid quantum networks closer to reality
2025-10-06
WASHINGTON — Researchers have created a chip-based device that can split phonons — tiny packets of mechanical vibration that can carry information in quantum systems. By filling a key gap, this device could help connect various quantum devices via phonons, paving the way for advanced computing and secure quantum communication.
“Phonons can serve as on-chip quantum messages that connect very different quantum systems, enabling hybrid networks and new ways to process quantum information in a compact, scalable format,” said research team ...
Texas Children’s researchers create groundbreaking tool to improve accuracy of genetic testing
2025-10-06
HOUSTON (Oct. 6, 2025) – Researchers at Texas Children’s Neurological Research Institute (NRI) and Baylor College of Medicine have developed a powerful new tool within the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) to sharpen the accuracy of genetic testing – a breakthrough with direct implications for patient diagnoses and care worldwide.
The work, published in Nature Communications, applies a method called local ancestry inference (LAI), which breaks the genome into ancestry-specific segments to provide more accurate insights into genetic differences.
“This research updates our genomic resources to better reflect the ...

Pusan National University researchers reveal how forest soil properties influence arsenic mobility and toxicity in soil organisms
2025-10-06
Soil contamination is a global environmental concern, with toxic metals and metalloids from industrial activities persisting as long-term pollutants. Arsenic (As), although naturally occurring, becomes widespread when mobilized by mining. Abandoned gold mines are major sources, releasing arsenic-rich minerals into surrounding environments through erosion and leaching. Forest soils, essential for ecosystem health and biodiversity, are particularly vulnerable. Despite arsenic’s mobility under specific soil conditions and known toxicity, its behavior in forest soils and impacts on soil organisms remain poorly understood.

Korea University researchers find sweet taste cells resist nerve damage through c-Kit protein
2025-10-06
Taste is one of our most vital senses, shaping appetite, nutrition, and quality of life. Yet taste buds are fragile, relying heavily on the nerves that connect them to the brain. When those nerves are cut or damaged, taste buds usually deteriorate — but later regenerate as nerves regrow. How this recovery occurs has remained unclear.
Now, a study led by Dr. Dong-Hoon Kim and Professor Yong Taek Jeong at Korea University College of Medicine, published in the International Journal of Oral Science ...
