The Arctic is warming up at a much faster pace than the rest of the world. This rapid change brings many challenges. One of the lesser-known issues is the impact on pollution levels in Arctic seabirds. These birds face a double whammy: climate change and lingering pollutants from the past. One such
A complex illness called eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis often shows up with a specific marker called myeloperoxidase-perinuclear-anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody. This condition is tricky to spot. It can be easily confused with other health issues. Doctors usually think of it w
Pure Red Cell Aplasia (PRCA) is a condition where the body stops producing red blood cells. This can happen for various reasons, and one key factor is a problem with the immune system's T cells. These cells go rogue and start attacking the body's own red blood cell-making machinery. This isn't the o
The world of sports is changing fast. Technology is making it easier to track how athletes move. This is thanks to 3D motion capture systems. These systems come in different forms. Each has its own way of working. Some use a single camera with depth estimation. Others use a single camera with
The medical community is always looking for better ways to spot prostate cancer early. One promising method is using a type of MRI scan called biparametric MRI (bpMRI). This tool is getting attention for its ability to predict significant prostate cancer in lesions that fall into the PI-RADS categor
BAX is a crucial player in the Bcl-2 family, known for its role in initiating cell death. Its job is to punch holes in the outer layer of mitochondria, which is a big step in the process of apoptosis, or programmed cell death. But how does BAX know when and where to strike? It turns out, there are t
A Maryland man was deported to El Salvador by mistake. This was a huge error by the government. The man, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, had been living in the U. S. legally with his family.
