(Press-News.org) About The Study: In this economic evaluation, cryopreserved platelets were dominated by liquid-stored platelets for managing bleeding in cardiac surgery. Further research is needed to assess the potential economic benefits of cryopreserved platelets in broader populations, particularly in regional and remote hospitals where platelet availability is limited.

Adaptive Kalman filter boosts BDS-3 navigation accuracy in challenging environments
2025-12-09
Precise Point Positioning (PPP) is widely used for high-accuracy navigation, but broadcast ephemeris from the BDS-3 system still suffers from hourly discontinuities that degrade real-time performance. This study introduces a new PPP strategy that integrates a covariance-adaptive Kalman filter to compensate for sudden orbit and clock jumps during each ephemeris update. By incorporating systematic parameters and dynamically scaling process noise, the algorithm better captures unexpected changes in satellite signals. Tests using one week of static global data and a 10-hour marine kinematic dataset show significant gains in accuracy, demonstrating that the proposed ...
Home-based monitoring could transform care for patients receiving T-cell redirecting therapies
2025-12-09
Patients who receive T-cell redirecting therapies are typically hospitalized for several days after treatment to watch for side effects. Now new research by Fox Chase Cancer Center physicians shows that these patients can safely be monitored at home.
The study, presented today at the 67th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition, showed that a structured outpatient model significantly reduced the number of days patients spent in the hospital, with no negative outcomes.
Fewer Hospital Days, No Safety Compromises

Listening to the 'whispers' of electrons and crystals: A quantum discovery
2025-12-09
A researcher at the Department of Physics at Tohoku University has uncovered a surprising quantum phenomenon hidden inside ordinary crystals: the strength of interactions between electrons and lattice vibrations - known as phonons - is not continuous, but quantized. Even more remarkably, this strength is universally linked to one of physics' most iconic numbers: the fine-structure constant.
What makes this dimensionless number (α ≈ 1/137) so iconic is its ability to explain electromagnetic interactions, ...
Report on academic exchange (colloquium) with Mapua University
2025-12-09
The Institute for Frontier Science and Engineering at Okayama University of Science (OUS) is developing various international collaboration projects with the aim of forming a research hub where international talents gather.
Based on the education and research agreement between OUS and Mapúa University (MU) in the Philippines, a joint colloquium was held to foster exchanges among researchers and students from both universities. This was the third time the colloquium was held. Three professors — Haruo Akashi (Institute for Frontier Science and ...
Sport in middle childhood can breed respect for authority in adolescence
2025-12-09
Young adolescents, especially boys, who participated in organized sports between ages 6 and 10 are less likely to defy their parents, teachers and other authority figures, a new study by researchers in Canada and Italy suggests.
“Oppositional-defiant disorder (ODD) is often under-diagnosed and can co-occur with other developmental disorders," said the study's lead author Matteo Privitera, a doctoral student at the University of Pavia (UofP), supervised by Linda Pagani, a professor at Université de Montréal's School of Psycho-Education.
"Symptoms of the disorder include persistent patterns of irritability, defiance and hostility toward ...
From novel therapies to first-in-human trials, City of Hope advances blood cancer care at the American Society of Hematology (ASH) annual conference
2025-12-08
LOS ANGELES — Researchers from City of Hope®, one of the largest and most advanced cancer research and treatment organizations in the United States with its National Medical Center ranked among the nation’s top cancer centers by U.S. News & World Report, presented scientific results on novel therapies, treatment strategies, and approaches to managing side effects and complications for blood cancer patients at the 2025 American Society of Hematology (ASH) conference in Orlando, Florida, held Dec. 6 to 9.
City of Hope was involved in one ASH plenary. In addition, its scientists ...

New study exposes hidden Alzheimer’s 'hot spots' in rural Maryland and what they reveal about America’s growing healthcare divide
2025-12-08
Washington, D.C. December 8, 2025 -- A new statewide spatial analysis of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) has uncovered significant disparities in Maryland’s rural communities, offering a striking example of how healthcare accessibility is shaping health outcomes across the United States.
More than 90% of larger hospitals are located in urban areas, leaving rural hospitals with fewer resources and very small operating margins. One of the biggest challenges is the shortage of doctors, nurses, and specialists trained in Alzheimer's and dementia care, who are concentrated in urban centers. As a result, ...
ASH 2025: Study connects Agent Orange exposure to earlier and more severe cases of myelodysplastic syndrome
2025-12-08
MIAMI, FLORIDA (EMBARGOED UNTIL DEC. 8, 2025, AT 6 P.M. EST) – A new national study shows for the first time that people exposed to Agent Orange face a higher risk of developing myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), tend to develop it earlier, and often have more aggressive disease that is more likely to progress to acute myeloid leukemia. The study was co-led by researchers at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, part of the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.
Many veterans and doctors have long questioned whether Agent Orange exposure ...
