Delirium and cognitive decline are common complications of anesthesia and surgery in older adults. Evidence-based recommendations on strategies to reduce the risk of postoperative neurocognitive disorders are presented in a new practice advisory in the Online First edition of Anesthesiology, the peer-reviewed journal of the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA).
A new analysis led by researchers at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health found that more than half of calories consumed at home by adults in the U.S. come from ultraprocessed foods.
The UCLA team will be presenting original research related to novel therapeutics, functional imaging, immunotherapy-related complications, socioeconomic disparities, and genomic interception strategies for patients with high risk for breast cancer recurrence.
Research shows that HPV accounts for 70% of all throat cancers, but only one-third of the public is aware that HPV causes throat cancer
Implementing the American College of Surgeons (ACS) Geriatric Surgery Verification (GSV) program leads to better postoperative outcomes and preserves independence in older cancer patients undergoing major abdominal procedures, according to a new study published in the Journal of the American College of Surgeons (JACS).
In this week’s AIP Advances, researchers at the University of Tabriz created organic materials for brain and heart pacemakers, which rely on uninterrupted signal delivery to be effective. Using a plastic base known as polypropylene, the researchers added a specially formulated clay called Montmorillonite and different ratios of graphene, one of the strongest lightweight materials. They created five different materials that could be performance-tested and took detailed measurements of the structure of the composite materials using scanning electron microscopy.
A new study has revealed that tomatoes harvested at an extremely early stage can still undergo maturation and ripening postharvest, offering a new avenue to enhance agricultural practices. The research explores the molecular and physiological changes occurring in these early-harvested fruits, demonstrating their ability to mature despite some challenges in pigment and cuticle formation. Importantly, seeds from these tomatoes remain viable, capable of germinating and growing into healthy plants. This discovery challenges conventional views on fruit development and suggests that the genetic programs governing maturation are triggered early, independent of full fruit growth or attachment to the plant.
A pivotal study has unveiled the genetic mechanisms that control lateral branching in tomatoes, a critical factor for improving crop productivity. By focusing on the WRKY-B transcription factor, the research identifies its central role in regulating the number and growth of lateral branches. This discovery not only enhances our understanding of plant development but also offers new possibilities for breeding strategies aimed at boosting tomato yields and ensuring more efficient agricultural practices.
Researchers have uncovered a pivotal genetic mechanism that enables tomatoes to enhance phosphate uptake by partnering with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. This discovery opens new possibilities for improving crop yields and reducing the environmental impact of fertilizer use, marking a significant step toward more sustainable agricultural practices.
