Let's talk about moving teeth quicker! Scientists are exploring two methods: Corticopuncture (CP) and Photobiomodulation (PBM). They even tried combining them to see which works best. They looked at genes like VEGF, PRX1, GLUT1, and COL1 and how fast teeth moved on different days (1, 3, 7, and 14).
Kenneth Kimes, now 49, looks back on his turbulent journey from an accomplice to his mother's crimes to prison. His story unfolds starting with his unusual childhood, marked by cross-country trips that were secret escapes from the FBI. As he grew older, his mother's criminal influence tightened its
Airplanes have a big job ahead of them: cutting down on their climate change effects. But it's tricky because we don't know much about what the best ways to do that are. We're not sure how well low-emission fuels will work on a large scale, or how to deal with things like contrails that also affect
Food safety is getting more critical these days. One way to ensure we're eating safe food is by identifying its origin, brand, or type using spectroscopic profiling. But how can we measure if our data is good enough for these tasks? Enter the "two-step classifiability analysis. " This method collect
Nothing seems off-limits for North Korea's leader, Kim Jong Un. He's got his sights set on a new military tool – suicide drones. These aren’t your average drones. They’re designed to crash and explode on impact. Kim wants his military factories to churn these out in big numbers. Why, you ask? Well,
Ever wondered why the Earth's iodine cycle matters? Well, it's all about the climate and our health. Iodine, especially its oxides, plays a big role. One oxide, I 2 O 3 , was thought to be a "dead end" in the cycle. Scientists recently found out that this isn't true. They discovered that I 2 O
Tracking how fast organisms travel and spread, especially when it comes to health-threatening pathogens like the West Nile virus, can be tricky. The models we currently rely on often fall short. For example, the popular Brownian trajectory model doesn't even use the idea of instantaneous speed. To f
Ever wondered how quickly to treat concussion-related eye focus issues? The CONCUSS study is set to find out. This project is a randomized clinical trial comparing two ways to fix convergence insufficiency, a common problem after concussions. One group gets immediate treatment, while the other waits
Volcanoes once erupted on the moon's far side, just like on the side we see, according to new research. Scientists examined dirt and rocks brought back by China's Chang'e-6 spacecraft from the moon's little-explored far side. They found pieces of volcanic rock dating back to 2. 8 billion years, with
Imagine a world where every child has access to the same medical care, regardless of where they live. This is the dream that drives hand surgeons to embark on mission trips. The problem? Many regions struggle with limited resources and high costs. Traveling to these countries isn't just about treati
