Tanzania, like many other countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, is going through big changes. These changes are affecting how people live and what they eat. In the past, people in rural areas ate differently than those in cities. But now, things are changing. People in both rural and urban areas are star
Imagine tiny cages made of molecules, called bis-porphyrin nanocages. These cages have metals like iron, cobalt, or zinc at their core. Scientists used these cages to see how their tiny pores and interactions with carbon nanomaterials affect their ability to turn CO2 into CO. These cages can stick t
Cobalt is a key player in a new method that turns CO2 into useful stuff. This isn't just any method. It uses sunlight to power the reaction. The process involves special materials called metal-covalent organic frameworks (MCOFs). These MCOFs have tiny, super-efficient parts called catalytic active s
Imagine surviving a storm but still feeling its effects years later. That's what many people are experiencing with long COVID. Five years after the initial outbreak, a significant number of people are still dealing with symptoms that just won't quit. They've been to countless doctors and had every t
In France, patients with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (LAM NSCLC) have been given nivolumab as a second-line or later treatment. This drug is part of a group known as immune checkpoint inhibitors, which help the body's immune system fight cancer. The study focused on how patient
Lymph nodes are like the body's first line of defense against cancer. When cancer cells spread, they often head straight to the sentinel lymph node (SLN). This is the first lymph node they encounter. Doctors use the SLN to predict how bad the cancer might get. If cancer cells are found in the SLN, t
Obesity is a major risk factor for breast cancer. Many women avoid taking tamoxifen, a drug often prescribed to lower breast cancer risk, because of its unpleasant side effects. These can include hot flashes and other vasomotor symptoms, as well as issues with insulin resistance and high triglycerid
Metabolomics is a field of study that deals with the small molecules in our bodies. These molecules are crucial for understanding how our bodies work. One big challenge in metabolomics is dealing with the huge amount of data generated by mass spectrometers. These machines can produce hundreds of sp
Dads, listen up! What you eat and how you live can affect your daughter's health, even before she's born. Scientists found that when dads are overweight, tiny changes happen in their sperm. These changes can stick around and affect their daughter's health later in life. These changes involve someth
The world of knee injury research isn't always as straightforward as it seems. When it comes to studies on the anterolateral ligament (ALL) and lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) for treating anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, there's a sneaky issue called spin. Spin is when researchers
