A recent study explored the use of post-transplant high-dose cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) from mismatched unrelated donors (MMUD) in patients with acute myeloid malignancies. The research focused on whether PTCy, along with a calcineurine inhibitor and my
Knee osteoarthritis sadly causes global disability issues. Early detection is tough because signs in x-rays can be hard to spot. Everyone struggles to get enough detailed data to help with it. Getting more data isn't easy. People's privacy matters, collecting the data is tough. The
Imagine tiny, incredibly efficient networks that can make chemical reactions run smoothly. These are called d-π conjugated coordination polymers, or CCPs for short. Normally, they're super useful in reactions that involve light or electricity. However, they tend to fall apart when exposed to heat, m
Think about this: what if you could turn sunlight and simple sugars into clean energy and useful chemicals? Pretty cool, right? Scientists have been working on this idea, but it's been tough. The biggest hurdles are low efficiency in producing hydrogen and poor selectivity in creating useful chemica
An interesting thing about lithium-ion batteries is how tiny oxygen holes can boost power. Imagine something really small—that's an oxygen vacancy. These vacancies are missing oxygen atoms in a material. When researchers looked closely at a material called Cu2Nb34O87-x/N-doped carbon composite, they
Microbe detectives dilemmas Colon cancer, unfortunately , affects so many globally. The gut microbiome plays a suspiciously important part in as there is an entire universe living in our guts. Let's learn then about how this microscopic world makes you cancer-rate. So each microbe inhabits a librar
Let's dive into how nuclear medicine affects our bodies. Yes, it sounds strange, but the truth is, they use special materials to look inside the body. In this new study, scientists took a closer look at how radiation affects children and adults differently. If you didn't k
Whats considered a very important mineral? Sodium. It's super crucial for keeping our bodies functioning properly, it is found hunting for food Imagine figuring out where sodium hangs out in our bodies We've always relied on urine and blood tests, but scientists have discovered that s
During tough times, like the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2022 Russia-Ukraine conflict, investors often look for safe places to put their money. Two big names in this game are Bitcoin and gold. But what about other types of investments, like those in the blue economy or green finance? How do they fare
A lot of companies use pay-for-performance (P4P) plans to motivate their employees. These can be given as rewards, or bonuses, or as penalties, or losses, based on performance. It's interesting because people typically dislike losing out more than they enjoy earning extra. This is a well-known conce
