Un raro trastorno de deterioro cognitivo hereditario conocido como Trastorno Relacionado con CSF1R (CSF1R-RD, por sus siglas en inglés) recibe su nombre debido a mutaciones en el gen CSF1R, descubierto por Mayo Clinic. La pérdida de memoria ocurre a medida que avanza la afección, mientras que los primeros síntomas incluyen cambios de personalidad, ansiedad, depresión y pérdida de inhibición. Las pruebas genéticas se han vuelto más ampliamente disponibles, pero no existe cura para la enfermedad.

Artificial coastlines, including human-made dikes and other engineered constructions, can help prevent erosion and protect from storms and flooding. However, ecological functions remain unprotected from many of these structures. So researchers in China have investigated the use of specialized types of cement.
The tiered umbrella is one of Thailand’s oldest and most sacred ornamental symbols. Constructing one of these ornate pieces, also called chatras, can take master artisans up to six months. However, in the Journal of Laser Applications, researchers demonstrate a technique for constructing seven-tiered umbrellas using high-powered lasers, which dramatically reduces the production time. Employing carbon dioxide lasers, they were able to fashion umbrellas from stainless steel in a matter of days while preserving their intricate beauty.
The #HOPE4LIVER trials, testing the safety efficacy of histotripsy as a treatment for primary and metastatic liver tumors, met its goals for technical success and safety. An expert is quoted explaining the results.
Hackensack Meridian Mountainside Medical Center’s Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory is proud to announce the integration of the Cathworks FFRangio® System, a cutting-edge non-invasive tool that enhances decision-making during coronary interventions. This advanced technology reaffirms the lab's commitment to providing world-class care to patients with coronary artery disease.
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center again has earned a five-star hospital rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)—the highest distinction from the federal agency.
The shift from pediatric to adult epilepsy care can be complex. A recent survey of young people with epilepsy found that 25% still saw pediatric neurologists for their epilepsy care. Only 4% said they received clear instructions during the transition process.
Michigan State University has won awards for its efforts to promote student voting and nonpartisan democratic engagement from the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge.
Optimizing an investment portfolio to maximize returns while minimizing risk is the ultimate goal for investors and their advisers. However, there is no set path and challenges always arise. One such limitation is the high-dimensional, small-sample problem (HDSS).
Long-time Rutgers professor Kathleen Pottick is receiving one of the highest honors in the field of social work for her decades-long contribution and research, which focuses on delivering more effective mental healthcare services to children and adolescents.
In a recent study from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, researchers tested whether modern high-yielding soybeans benefit from nitrogen fertilizer, with results suggesting additions are largely unnecessary.
Mason Moseley, a faculty member in the West Virginia University Eberly College of Arts and Sciences, has been selected by the U.S. Fulbright Scholar Program to travel to Argentina to research the political attitudes and environmental consequences of its mining industry.
Scientists elaborated algorithm that much better detects epilepsy on EEG recordings, than other automated methods. To achieve this, authors combined two approaches to analysis of signals of brain activity – classifier, that doesn’t require education, and trainable neural network. The project will enable to automate analysis of EEG and so simplify the process of detecting of epilepsy. Results of the research, supported by the grant of Presidential program of Russian Scientific Foundation, are published in the magazine IEEE Access.
