This Protein Takes a Twisted Turn

The NMDAR is involved in numerous cognitive functions including memory. Its movements are tightly coordinated like a choreographed dance routine. Scientists have now figured out how the protein performs a difficult 'Twist'-like dance move. The discovery could lead to new drug compounds that bind to NMDAR more effectively. Proteins are constantly performing a kind of

The Impact of Social Influence on Healthier Shopping Choices: Insights from Recent Research

A randomized trial conducted by health economists found that a bit of peer influence can nudge us to select healthier groceries. Amid the rise of chronic diseases, such as heart disease and diabetes, a novel study by Duke-NUS Medical School offers a fresh perspective on encouraging healthier grocery shopping. Despite the widespread use of colour-coded

Understanding the Impact of the Latest Cardiovascular Risk Calculator on Patient Care

If current guidelines for cholesterol and high blood pressure treatment remain unchanged, a newly unveiled heart risk calculator would render 16 million people ineligible for preventive therapy. Loss of eligibility for cholesterol and blood pressure medicines could lead to 107,000 more heart attacks and strokes over 10 years but may reduce new diabetes cases by

3D-Printed Hair Follicle Models: A Revolution in Hair Research and Restoration

Hair follicle infections are often difficult to treat because bacteria settle in the gap between hair and skin, where it is difficult for active substances to reach them. In order to investigate this scenario more closely in the laboratory, researchers have now developed a model with human hair follicles embedded in a matrix produced using

Optimal Age for Olympic Athletes: Discover When They Peak Performance

There's a lot that goes into an Olympic athlete's quest for gold -- years of training and rigor -- but also, an athlete's age. A team used statistics to figure out when an Olympic track-and-field athletes' peak performance will be. There's a lot that goes into an Olympic athlete's quest for gold -- years of

Boosting Fruit Intake in Midlife: A Key to Preventing Late-Life Blues

In a large Singapore cohort study involving over 13,000 participants spanning close to 20 years, higher consumption of fruits during midlife was found to be associated with lower odds of depressive symptoms at late-life. Populations are rapidly ageing worldwide, and there is an increased prevalence of late-life depressive symptoms among older adults, which include depressed

Slow Disease Progression with Supplements for Late Stage ‘Dry’ AMD

In a new analysis of data, researchers have found that taking a daily supplement containing antioxidant vitamins and minerals slows progression of late-stage dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD), potentially helping people with late-stage disease preserve their central vision. In a new analysis of data, researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have found that

Debunking the Myth: Multivitamins and the Risk of Early Death for Healthy Adults
