Fibromyalgia, IBS patients linked to multiple-drug intolerance
UT Southwestern Medical Center

Patients with fibromyalgia and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) who take multiple medications are more likely to develop severe drug intolerance than healthy patients, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers reported. Their findings, published in The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice, could help health professionals prescribe drugs for patients and identify treatment plans for multiple drug intolerance syndrome (MDIS).

Why is the warm gas-giant exoplanet WASP-107 b so, so puffy? With a moderate temperature and an ultra-low density on par with a microwaved marshmallow, it seems to defy standard theories of planet formation and evolution. Two independent teams of researchers think they’ve figured it out.

Not sure about vaccines? How public health messaging is framed makes a difference, new research reveals
Binghamton University, State University of New York

What’s the best way to communicate with a vaccine-hesitant person about a vaccine’s potential benefits? New research from Binghamton University, State University of New York found that a one-size-fits-all approach to communicating messages isn’t effective.

Melon Flavor Decoded: The Genetic Keys to Aromatic Diversity
Chinese Academy of Sciences

This study investigates the genetic regulation of volatile production in melons, identifying over 1000 quantitative trait loci (QTLs) affecting aroma and ripening. Key findings highlight specific chromosomes that influence ester and aldehyde levels, contributing to unique aromas in climacteric and non-climacteric melons, aiding breeding programs aimed at enhancing fruit quality.

After Hundreds of Years, Study Confirms Bermuda Now Home to Cownose Rays
Florida Atlantic University

Using citizen science, photographs, on-water observations and the combination of morphological and genetic data, researchers are the first to provide evidence that the Atlantic cownose ray has recently made a new home in Bermuda. Results show that after hundreds of years of natural history records, this is a novel migration of Atlantic cownose rays to Bermuda. Findings suggest that cownose rays have been in Bermuda for more than a decade since 2012 and observations of the species continue to be sustained today.
