Colchicine could be considered as a treatment for non-hospitalized patients diagnosed with COVID-19 by PCR test and at risk of complications.
The ancient burrowers of the seafloor have been getting a bum rap for years.These prehistoric dirt churners -- a wide assortment of worms, trilobites, and other animals that lived in Earth's oceans hundreds of millions of years ago -- are thought to have played a key role in creating the conditions needed for marine life to flourish. Their activities altered the chemical makeup of the sea itself...
This study aimed to investigate self-reported symptoms of disease flares among patients with rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus during the COVID-19 pandemic.
A study of gene activity in the brain's hippocampus, led by UT Southwestern researchers, has identified marked differences between the region's anterior and posterior portions. The findings, published today in Neuron, could shed light on a variety of brain disorders that involve the hippocampus and may eventually help lead to new, targeted treatments.
What The Study Did: This study evaluates whether there are differences in SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence and antibody levels in patients with cancer compared with health care workers in Japan.
Developing new ultrathin metal electrodes has allowed researchers to create semitransparent perovskite solar cells that are highly efficient and can be coupled with traditional silicon cells to greatly boost the performance of both devices, said an international team of scientists. The research represents a step toward developing completely transparent solar cells.
What The Study Did: Rates of antispike antibody response to a messenger RNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in Israeli patients with cancer who are undergoing systemic treatment compared with healthy controls were evaluated in this study.
What The Study Did: Researchers examined social connectedness among Medicare beneficiaries during the COVID-19 pandemic.
What The Study Did: Socioeconomic disparities in respiratory health over the past six decades in the United States are described in this study.
The technology using DNA-based genealogy that solved a double murder in Linköping opens completely new possibilities in investigating serious crime. LiU researchers are now involved in spreading new knowledge about the technology, which brings hope to police forces and has aroused major international interest.
Chemotherapy destroys stem cells, which then cannot develop into immune cells and become part of the body's defences. There are drugs that can remedy this, but previously we did not know exactly how these drugs worked. Now, a study conducted in mice by researchers at the University of Copenhagen details their function providing new knowledge that may improve stem cell transplantation and lead to...
New study used whole genome sequencing to gain further understanding of why some children develop secondary leukaemia after neuroblastoma treatment.
The authors, Kirill Vasin and Mikhail Eremin, contribute to the theory of electronic and structural properties of FeCr2O4 ferrimagnet.
Dark Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) Collaboration directly observed a spectral softening of helium nuclei at about 34TeV for the first time.
Research team of Samara Polytech in cooperation with the crystallographic research group of Lomonosov Moscow State University studied non-racemic 4,5-dihydrofurans.
The new findings identify a potential contributor to microcephaly, a birth defect in which the head is underdeveloped and abnormally small.
University of Montana researchers recently published a new study in the Journal of Wildlife Management analyzing why landowners do or don't secure attractants in bear country. The results suggest that collective or socially motivated factors may be a missing and important piece of the puzzle for encouraging voluntary steps to secure attractants and improve wildlife-human coexistence. The...
A deeper understanding of how the environment impacts quantum behaviour is bringing quantum devices one step closer to widespread adoption.
A genetic study of 840,000 people found that shifting sleep time earlier by just an hour decreases risk of major depression by 23%.
In collaboration with Kanazawa University, researchers from Osaka City University used high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) to visualize at the nanometer level the movement of individual particles within the parasitic bacterium Mycoplasma mobile. After confirming the outline on the surface of the cell structure in an immobilized state with previous data gathered from electron microscopy,...
App developers can improve the profitability of free apps by strategically deploying or eliminating their paid version counterparts over an app's lifetime.
World Vape Day: BAT publishes review highlighting 10 years of scientific evidence on vaping
Nelson, B.C., home-care aide Michael Jeffery discovered a skunk stumbling on the road last weekend with its head stuck in an empty beer can that was cut in half. He had a little internal debate about whether he could rescue the animal without getting...
Scientists investigated how the immune system's previous exposure to cold-causing coronaviruses impact immune response to COVID-19. In doing so, they discovered one cross-reactive coronavirus antibody that's triggered during a COVID-19 infection.
