Oxygen is essential for life, but too much of it can be harmful. This is especially true when it comes to supplemental oxygen therapy.

Deep learning is making waves in predicting how long heart procedures take. Researchers focused on using video analysis to figure out the different stages of procedures in a cath lab. They found that certain deep learning models, like InceptionTime and LSTM-FCN, were the best at guessing when a proc
Grapevines, especially the wild ones, are tough cookies. They can handle diseases and stress better than most plants. This is partly because of tiny molecules called microRNAs, or miRNAs, which help control how the plant grows, develops, and fights off invaders. One such miRNA, miR3398, has a specia
Imagine a material that can stretch and shrink dramatically with just a bit of heat. Sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie, right? Well, scientists have found a crystal that does just that. This isn't your average crystal. It's made from a special type of dibenzothiophene sulfone. Whe
COVID-19 has been a tough opponent for the world. It's not just about vaccines and medicines anymore. Researchers have come up with a new way to fight it. They've created a fancy model called SEI1I2I3QCR. This model is not your average math problem. It uses something called fractional-order delay di
Southeast Asia is grappling with a significant public health challenge: Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs). A recent study delved into the latest Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) data from 2005 to 2022, focusing on five countries in the region: Timor-Leste, Philippines, Indonesia, Myanmar, an
In today's fast-paced world, cities are growing quickly, and outdoor ads are becoming a big part of how cities look. This makes it super important to have a way to judge how good these ads look. A recent study set out to create a system to do just that, giving city planners and ad designers some use
The Los Angeles Rams are making it easier for other teams to find out what it would take to get Matthew Stafford. The Rams have given Stafford and his agent the green light to chat with other NFL teams about his value. This move is all about figuring out how much Stafford is worth in the market.
The liver is a vital organ that can become damaged by a condition known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). This condition is quite common among adults. It is caused by excess fat buildup in the liver, not due to alcohol consumption. One factor that has been linked to NAFLD is high levels
