Lactating mice expose their feeding pups to triclosan resulting in early signs of liver damage

In mouse studies, researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine report that lactating mothers expose their feeding pups to triclosan, an antimicrobial commonly used in consumer products, resulting in early signs of liver damage that can eventually lead to more serious impairment and illness, such as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).

Analyzing pathological outcomes in single vs multiple architectural distortion on digital breast tomosynthesis

According to ARRS' American Journal of Roentgenology (AJR), for patients with multiple architectural distortion (AD) identified on digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), biopsy of all areas may be warranted, given the variation of pathologic diagnoses across AD in individual patients.

The brain plays a crucial role when choices about future pain versus future profit are concerned

Imagine having to choose over and over between what you enjoy doing and the pain that it might cause you, whether physical or emotional. If you live with conditions such as depression, anxiety, or chronic pain, you are probably familiar with making these difficult choices on a daily or weekly basis.

Genetic variations in one serotonin receptor could be the reason behind psychedelic treatment disparity

When all else fails, some patients trying to overcome alcoholism, severe depression or anxiety, and even cluster headaches, turn to psychedelic drugs, which clinical research has shown can help treat individuals with these conditions, sometimes with dramatically positive results.

Incorporating a coronavirus antigen into MMR vaccine to produce COVID-19 immunity in kids

New research has advanced COVID-19 vaccine work in several ways: using a modified live attenuated mumps virus for delivery, showing that a more stable coronavirus spike protein stimulates a stronger immune response, and suggesting a dose up the nose has an advantage over a shot.

Epigenetic age acceleration could be used as a biomarker to estimate functional and cognitive aging

A first-of-its-kind study of 1,813 older women suggests that the accelerated biological aging of the body - epigenetic age acceleration specifically - is associated with lower odds of living to be 90 years old and also being physically mobile and having intact mental function.
