Pesquisadores da Mayo Clinic identificam uma mutação genética mensurável como um importante preditor de metástase e sobrevivência no câncer de pâncreas
Mayo Clinic

Um novo estudo realizado pelos pesquisadores do Centro Oncológico Integral da Mayo Clinic descobriu que a presença de uma mutação genética específica — o DNA tumoral circulante KRAS (ctDNA) — indica um risco extremamente maior de disseminação do câncer e piores taxas de sobrevivência para pacientes com adenocarcinoma ductal pancreático (PDAC, sigla em inglês). A mutação foi identificada por meio de um teste de sangue e fluido abdominal facilmente disponível e clinicamente aprovado.

A $25 Million Gift Establishes the Stein Tikun Olam Early Connections Program at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles
Children's Hospital Los Angeles

The Tikun Olam Foundation of the Jewish Community Foundation of Los Angeles has awarded a $25 million gift to establish the Stein Tikun Olam Early Connections Program at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA). This program will be one of the first of its kind in the nation providing universal, hospital-wide infant-family mental health services. The transformational donation is the largest in the history of CHLA dedicated to early childhood mental health.

New Analysis Underscores Health Risks of E-Cigarettes
Johns Hopkins Medicine

A Johns Hopkins Medicine-led analysis of medical information gathered on a diverse group of almost 250,000 people over four years has significantly clarified the link between the “exclusive” use of e-cigarettes and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), as well as high blood pressure in a sub-group of adults 30 to 70 years of age.

Simulate Sound in 3D at a Finer Scale than Humans Can Perceive
American Institute of Physics (AIP)

Ambisonic rendering is a way to simulate the precise locations of sounds in 3D, and an ambisonics algorithm has allowed researchers to create rich virtual “soundscapes.” In JASA, researchers decided to test the limits of ambisonic sound reproduction through their “AudioDome” loudspeaker array. Humans’ spatial acuity is high in front of our faces but decreases around the sides of our head, and the researchers’ experiments obtained very similar results from listeners in the AudioDome, proving that the loudspeaker array can reproduce sound locations at a spatial scale beyond the human limits of perception.

A Bowling Revolution: Modeling the Perfect Conditions for a Strike
American Institute of Physics (AIP)

In AIP Advances, researchers share a model that identifies the optimal location for bowling ball placement. Employing a system of six differential equations derived from Euler’s equations for a rotating rigid body, their model creates a plot that shows the best conditions for a strike. The model accounts for a variety factors, including the thin layer of oil applied to bowling lanes, the motion of the subtly asymmetric bowling ball, and a “miss-room” to allow for human inaccuracies.
