Targeted oxygen for initial resuscitation of preterm infants

JAMA

2025-12-10

(Press-News.org) About The Study: Initiating resuscitation of preterm infants with fraction of inspired oxygen of 0.6 vs 0.3 did not affect the risk of death or brain injury by 36 weeks’ corrected gestational age. These results lay a foundation for future trials evaluating the effectiveness and safety of using higher initial fraction of inspired oxygen levels for preterm infant resuscitation.

Researchers develop models to help diagnose ALS earlier through blood biomarkers

2025-12-10

Using machine learning models, researchers at Michigan Medicine have identified a potential way to diagnose amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS, earlier from a blood sample, a study suggests. The models, which analyze blood for biomarkers through gene expression with RNA sequencing to detect ALS, also have the potential to predict disease severity — and how long a person might live with the neurodegenerative condition. The results are published in Nature Communications. “Our findings present an ...

Jeonbuk National University researchers develop novel eco-friendly and photo-switchable smart adhesives

2025-12-10

Adhesives are essential in various industries, including aerospace, electronics, construction, marine, automotive, and biomedical fields. As these fields continue to advance, the demand for high-performance, multifunctional adhesives is also growing. However, such widespread use has also highlighted their environmental issues. Conventional adhesives, while effective and economical, release petroleum-based chemicals that are harmful to soil and water quality. Their production also contributes to environmental ...

Magnetic ordering induces Jahn–Teller effect in spinel-type compounds

2025-12-10

The Jahn–Teller effect, proposed by Jahn and Teller in 1937, describes how molecules or crystals with degenerate electronic orbitals can lower their total energy by distorting their structure. This distortion lifts the degeneracy, stabilizing certain orbitals that become occupied by electrons. While many materials exhibiting this effect have been found, the involvement of spin—the source of magnetism—has rarely been observed because magnetic ordering usually occurs at much lower temperatures than structural distortions caused by the Jahn–Teller ...

A mitochondrial protein may hold the secret to longevity, new study finds

2025-12-10

As life expectancy continues to climb globally, the focus of many people has moved from longevity alone to living in good health. This has drawn attention to the need to extend “healthspan,” the period during which an individual maintains their vitality, independence, and good health, and is free from major age-related issues. Mitochondria, known popularly as the powerhouse of the cell, are central to this goal as they produce the energy essential for life in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Given that many age-related diseases and aging itself are strongly linked to the decline of mitochondrial function, mitochondria ...

Study shows how everyday repairs sustain autonomy in a Japanese squat

2025-12-10

Everyday acts of care—tightening a loose hinge, patching up a wall, or simply moving a crate—may seem mundane. But a new study from Ritsumeikan University shows that these small repairs are key to sustaining autonomy and an inclusive social life in a squatted space in Japan. The research, led by Associate Professor Kyoko Tominaga from the College of Social Sciences at Ritsumeikan University, Japan, explores how spatial practices within the squat at the Takayama Architecture Summer School (TASS) enable diverse residents to coexist through collaborative ...

Ancient manatee relative reveals that sea cows have engineered the Arabian Gulf’s seagrass ecosystems for over 20 million years

2025-12-10

Today, the Arabian Gulf is home to manatee-like marine mammals called dugongs that shape the seafloor as they graze on seagrasses. A newly described fossil site in Qatar reveals that ancient sea cows engineered aquatic ecosystems in a similar way more than 20 million years ago. In a paper published today in the journal PeerJ, researchers at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History worked with collaborators at Qatar Museums to also name a new species of sea cow that was a miniature version ...

Fecal tests reveal active termite attacks

2025-12-10

Termite pellets can linger long after the insects that dropped them have disappeared. By testing for microbes in the excrement, researchers can distinguish old droppings from fresh, and whether a colony is actively chewing its way through a home. Previous efforts to determine pellet age focused on testing hydrocarbon compounds or other chemicals in the pellets. These studies have required expensive, specialized laboratory equipment and complicated extraction processes. In some cases, researchers ...

Uterine fibroids linked to elevated heart disease risk

2025-12-10

Research Highlights: Long-term heart disease risk among women diagnosed with uterine fibroids was more than 80% higher than in women without uterine fibroids, according to a 10-year study of more than 2.7 million U.S. women. The elevated heart disease risk among those with uterine fibroids persisted among all races and ages but was particularly strong in women younger than 40. Researchers said more studies are needed to better understand and confirm the relationship between having uterine fibroids and increased heart ...

Dual use of cigarettes and vapes can reduce risks of smoking and help smokers quit

2025-12-10

A new major study from Queen Mary University of London has found that smokers who use both cigarettes and e-cigarettes at the same time – known as dual use – are reducing their intake of harmful chemicals and are also more likely to eventually quit smoking than those who continue to smoke only. This challenges common fears about dual use. The study examined data from a large trial, funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) and Cancer Research UK (CRUK), which followed 886 adult smokers ...

New bioelectronics device based on hydrogel- elastomer conductive nanomembranes

2025-12-10

A research team at the Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research (CNIR) within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS), together with Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU), has developed a new class of ultra-thin, flexible bioelectronic material that can seamlessly interface with living tissues. The researchers introduced a novel device called THIN (Transformable and Imperceptible Hydrogel-Elastomer Ionic-Electronic Nanomembrane). THIN is a membrane just 350 nanometers thick that transforms from a dry, rigid film into an ultra-soft, tissue-like interface ...
