Adolescents who snore frequently were more likely to exhibit behavior problems such as inattention, rule-breaking, and aggression, but they do not have any decline in their cognitive abilities, according to a new study conducted by researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM).
Rutgers University-New Brunswick undergraduate students in Yanhong Jin’s elective class, “Food, Nutrition, and Health,” find themselves becoming researchers – some of whom may get their work published. Jin, a professor in the Department of Agricultural, Food and Resource Economics at the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences, provides her students an uncommon opportunity to conduct research as undergrads.
MSU expert: How AI can help people understand research and increase trust in science
In a session of the 187th ASA Meeting, Michael Stocker of Ocean Conservation Research will present work examining the circumstances surrounding the whale deaths off the coast of New Jersey in the winter of 2022-23, which prompted concern that survey work in the area somehow contributed to their deaths.
Bożena Kostek from Gdańsk University of Technology is exploring how speech-to-text programs can be better used in the medical field. By studying how clear speech affects STT accuracy, she hopes to improve its usefulness for health care professionals. A detailed audio dataset was created with Polish medical terms spoken by doctors and specialists in areas like cardiology and pulmonology. This dataset was analyzed using an Automatic Speech Recognition model for transcription, and several metrics were used to evaluate the quality of the speech recognition.
Smarter city planning: MSU researchers use brain activity to predict visits to urban areas
A research team at UVA Health is testing the ability of focused ultrasound to increase the immune response to immunotherapy in melanoma. UVA’s work with focused ultrasound already has led to life-changing new treatments for Parkinson’s disease and essential tremor and pushed the technology to the forefront of medical research.
Researchers at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) have employed a NASA open-source program to reveal that disadvantaged populations may be subject to greater heat stress and poor air quality. For this study, the researchers focused on Houston, Tex. Combining changes in heat and land cover with Houston's socioeconomic data demonstrated that economically disadvantaged populations are subject to greater heat stress.
In what could be a major advance in understanding the genetic causes underlying human infertility, scientists led by researchers from Rutgers University-New Brunswick have identified a gene variant directly tied to early miscarriages in women. The discovery of the variant is linked to accelerated reproductive aging, a condition producing high numbers of abnormal eggs that can lead to miscarriages.
A UCLA study helps explain why glioblastoma, one of the most aggressive forms of brain cancer, becomes resistant to treatment, and introduces a new approach that paves the way for more personalized treatment strategies for patients with this deadly brain tumor.
