The Notch pathway is key to our muscles' growth, repair, and aging. Scientists studied how interleukin-10 (IL-10), a crucial immune system protein, affects this pathway in muscle cells. They also looked at how a mix of endurance and strength exercises changes muscle quality in older mice. In this s
Imagine if you could have a fleet of underwater robots that could talk to each other safely and work together efficiently. That's exactly what a new scheme called Energy-Efficient and Trust-based Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (EETAUV) is designed to do. This scheme is made for 6G-enabled underwater
Ever wondered how doctors use MRI images to diagnose muscle diseases? One way is by looking at the amount of fat in thigh muscles, and that's where AI comes in. Models like U-Net help doctors do just that, but they can be complex. So, what if we make these AI models simpler? Could they still do thei

CES 2025 was all about the latest in robot vacuum cleaners. Companies like Roborock, Dreame, and Narwhal showed off their newest models packed with innovative features. Let's dive into what makes these robots stand out. The Roborock Saros Z70 is a game-changer with its extendable Omnigrip arm. This
Imagine you're living in China and your family switches from traditional cooking methods to cleaner fuels. What happens? Well, a lot! A study shows that a small increase in using clean cooking fuels can boost a country's total household income by billions. In China, this means an extra $37 billion a
Ever wondered if there could be a better way to treat major depressive disorder (MDD)? Scientists are looking into a new path, the orexin system. This system, found in the brain, is linked to your sleep-wake cycle and how you feel rewarded. Researchers believe that by blocking the orexin receptors,
Lichen Sclerosus, often called LSc, is a skin condition causing chronic inflammation, mostly in the anogenital areas. It can lead to serious health issues, like cancer. A recent study in Sweden looked at the number of new LSc cases and who they affected from 2001 to 2021. The researchers used data f
