A recent study dug into the link between lack of sleep and a condition called epiretinal membrane (ERM). Researchers used a smart data method called machine learning to analyze health info from a big Korean survey. They found that not getting enough sleep might raise the chances of developing ERM.
In many parts of Sub-Saharan Africa, women have limited access to long-acting birth control methods. These methods, like IUDs and implants, are known to be effective and safe. They can help prevent unwanted pregnancies and reduce the number of women who die during childbirth. However, only a small p
In today's unpredictable world, keeping an eye on important areas like borders, military bases, and key facilities is more crucial than ever. But traditional cameras have their limits. They can't see through obstacles, and they need a lot of power. That's where sound comes in. Researchers have been
Skin is more than just what we see. It's home to tiny creatures called microbes. These microbes can tell a story. Scientists wanted to see if these microbes stay the same over time. They also wanted to see if they could match a person to their microbes. Fifteen young adults helped with this study.
In Ethiopia, many mothers with young kids don't eat enough different foods. This is a big problem. It's not just about one person. It affects everyone. But, most studies look at kids' food. They don't look at moms. And they use old ways to study the problem. This new study is different. It uses smar
Wastewater treatment plants are under scrutiny for their role in releasing nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas. With the rise of digital tech, scientists are turning to machine learning to predict and manage these emissions. This approach leverages vast amounts of data from various sources to mak
The Yellow River Basin in China is a hotspot for managing water, energy, and food resources. These resources are all connected, and balancing them is crucial for sustainable development. A recent study took a deep dive into how these resources interact and change over time in this region. The study
Heart scans, or echocardiograms, are super important for checking heart health. But there are not enough of them to go around. This means doctors need a smart way to decide who needs a scan first. A new study used fancy computer learning tricks to help with this. The study looked at both health and
Self-driving cars are becoming smarter. They need to handle huge amounts of data every day. This data helps them make decisions. But there's a problem. How do we keep this data safe and private? A new way to solve this problem has been developed. It's called vQFL. This stands for vehicular Quantum
Ginseng powder is a popular health supplement, but it's often mixed with cheaper plants or wheat flour. This can trick buyers and even harm their health. A recent study found a way to quickly spot these fakes using a combo of near-infrared light and smart computer programs. The team used 1, 680 sam
