An international team of geoscientists led by a volcanologist at Rutgers University-New Brunswick has discovered that, contrary to present scientific understanding, ancient volcanoes continued to spew carbon dioxide into the atmosphere from deep within the Earth long past their period of eruptions.
The October 7, 2023 Hamas attacks on Israel resulted in widespread trauma, impacting not only the direct victims but also the broader population. Many experienced posttraumatic symptoms. This collective trauma blurred the lines between witnesses and victims, leading to a shared experience of pain and grief across Israeli society. In the wake of these attacks, a notable phenomenon emerged: memorial tattoos reflecting personal narratives while also representing collective trauma experienced by the entire nation. A new study by researchers at Bar-Ilan University uses Terror Management Theory (TMT, Solomon et al., 1991) to explore the rise of memorial tattoos in Israel following the attacks, offers insights into how individuals cope with trauma and find meaning through tattoos, using TMT as a theoretical framework, and ultimately contributing to the understanding of psychological resilience in the face of terror.
Most patients should continue taking their glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists before elective surgery, suggests new clinical guidance released by the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA), American Gastroenterological Association, American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, International Society of Perioperative Care of Patients with Obesity, and the Society of American Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Surgeons. Patients at the highest risk for significant gastrointestinal (GI) side effects should follow a liquid diet for 24 hours before the procedure or other measures, depending on the specific circumstances.
A recent collaboration among researchers from HUN-REN Wigner Research Centre for Physics in Hungary and the Department of Energy鈥檚 Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, along with industry collaborators SandboxAQ聽and NVIDIA, has achieved unprecedented speed and performance in聽efforts to model complex metal-containing molecules.
The Roswell Park team has developed a new method to measure mutation loads across species, revealing the role of the "dark genome" 鈥� ancient, virus-like genes that affect cellular function. The findings support further exploration of antiviral drugs as potential tools to target the dark genome in controlling cancer.
Using computational tools, researchers from the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center and the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine have developed a method to assess which patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer could benefit from immunotherapy.
Tayia Oddonetto, a doctoral student at The University of Texas at El Paso, developed electrodialysis metathesis, a novel approach to the desalination of brine, or salt, water that can convert over 90% of salt water to fresh water. The research earned Oddonetto first place and funding from the NSF Engineering Research Centers Perfect Pitch Competition.
Breastfeeding, child nutrition and exposure secondhand tobacco smoke at an early age may play a role in the onset of inflammatory bowel disease, according to a study conducted on Quebecers.
Findings from the TAVR UNLOAD study found limited benefits of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in the treatment of heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and moderate aortic stenosis (AS). Findings were reported today at TCT 2024, the annual scientific symposium of the Cardiovascular Research Foundation (CRF). TCT is the world鈥檚 premier educational meeting specializing in interventional cardiovascular medicine. The results were also published simultaneously in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
The EVOLVED trial found that early aortic valve intervention in patients with asymptomatic severe aortic stenosis (AS) and mid-wall myocardial fibrosis on magnetic resonance imaging did not reduce the incidence of the composite primary endpoint of all-cause death or unplanned aortic stenosis hospitalization compared with guideline-directed conservative management. Findings were reported today at TCT 2024, the annual scientific symposium of the Cardiovascular Research Foundation (CRF). TCT is the world鈥檚 premier educational meeting specializing in interventional cardiovascular medicine. The results were also published simultaneously in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
