Revolutionary Deep-Learning Model Surpasses Google AI in Predicting Peptide Structures

admin -
Researchers have developed a deep-learning model, called PepFlow, that can predict all possible shapes of peptides -- chains of amino acids that are shorter than proteins, but perform similar biological functions. Peptides are known to be highly flexible, taking on a wide range of folding patterns, and are thus involved in many biological processes of

Prenatal Ethylene Oxide Exposure and Newborn Health: Impact on Birth Weight and Head Circumference

admin -
A study provides new evidence on the adverse effects of prenatal exposure to ethylene oxide (EO) on fetal development. The results show that increased EO exposure in utero is associated with a reduction in birth weight and head circumference in newborns. A study led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal), a centre supported

Understanding Amyloidosis: Pathogenesis, Research, and Treatment Review

admin -
AL (immunoglobulin light chain) amyloidosis is a rare disease that often results in progressive organ dysfunction, organ failure and eventual death. Clonal plasma cells in the bone marrow secrete free light chains into circulation. These light chains are part of immunoglobulins, also called antibodies. But in this disease, light chains misfold and aggregate into amyloid

Understanding the Persistence of H5N1 Bird Flu in Unpasteurized Milk: Implications for Human and Animal Health

admin -
Its potential to infect people and other animals. This poses a significant public health concern and highlights the need for strict biosecurity measures in dairy farming. Understanding the stability of the virus in milk and on equipment is crucial for preventing future outbreaks and protecting human and animal health

How Standardized Protocols Help Hospitals Improve Stroke Treatment Efficiency

admin -
Research illustrates that American Heart Association and American Stroke Association guidelines are effective at speeding up hospitals' response times for stroke treatment and can be mastered even by members of 'ad hoc' medical teams that assemble rapidly on the fly. West Virginia University research illustrates that American Heart Association and American Stroke Association guidelines are

Essential Oxygen Needs for Very Premature Babies: Expert Guidance

admin -
A study suggests giving oxygen at a concentration of 90 to 100 percent soon after birth could halve the risk of death for very premature babies that need help breathing. Giving very premature babies high concentrations of oxygen soon after birth may reduce the risk of death by 50 percent, compared to lower levels of

Exploring the Effects of Space Travel on the Human Body

admin -
What actually happens to the human body in space? While scientists and researchers have heavily researched how various factors impact the human body here on Earth, the amount of information available about changes that occur in the body in space is not as well-known. Scientists have been studying for years how the body, specifically on

Circadian Rhythm’s Influence on Immune Cells Release

An international study shows new drug improves sleep, health in patients diagnosed with obesity and sleep apnea. Researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine and international collaborators have led a worldwide, advanced study demonstrating the potential of tirzepatide, known to manage type 2 diabetes, as the first effective drug therapy for obstructive

ChatGPT shows bias against resumes hinting at a disability, but improvements are possible

admin -
Researchers found that ChatGPT consistently ranked resumes with disability-related honors and credentials -- such as the 'Tom Wilson Disability Leadership Award' -- lower than the same resumes without those honors and credentials. But when researchers customized the tool with written instructions directing it not to be ableist, the tool reduced this bias for all but

Unlocking the Mystery: Exploring the Age of Your Bone Marrow

Our bone marrow the fatty, jelly-like substance inside our bones is an unseen powerhouse quietly producing 500 billion new blood cells every day. That process is driven by hematopoietic stem cells that generate all of the various types of blood cells in our bodies and regenerating themselves to keep the entire assembly line of blood

Revealing Evolution in Humans’ Sensing of Cold and Menthol: A Step Forward in Non-Addictive Pain Treatments
