Jul 08, 2025Deep Learning-based Model Enables Fast and Accurate Stroke Risk PredictionIn this study, an automated method for lumen, vessel wall, and plaque segmentation for quantitative assessment based on MR vessel wall images and a CNN model with different priors was developed and... Stroke is the second leading cause of death globally. Ischemic stroke, strongly linked to atherosclerotic plaques, requires accurate plaque and vessel wall segmentation and quantification for defin... -
Jun 30, 2025Researchers Uncover Novel Mechanism for Regulating Ribosome Biogenesis During Brain DevelopmentThis study expands the understanding of the complex regulatory networks that govern protein synthesis and underscores the critical role of mRNA modifications in fine-tuning essential cellular proce... Ribosomes are tiny molecular machines inside all living cells that build proteins, and ribosome biogenesis is the complex, multi-step process by which they are made.During brain development, neural... -
Jun 25, 2025Regular Opioid Use May Increase Dementia RiskA 20% increased risk of all-cause dementia was observed among individuals with regular opioid use compared to non-users. Chronic non-cancer pain (CNCP) is defined as any painful condition that persists for more than three months and is unrelated to malignancy, affecting around 30% of people worldwide. Opioid use for ... -
Jun 19, 2025In Situ Formation of Functional Materials in Living SystemsThis approach enabled the in situ synthesis of gold–polymer nanocomposites within living E. coli, effectively transforming the bacteria into "living nanofactories". Gold–polymer composites have attracted significant attention in materials science and nanotechnology, particularly for their potential in surface-enhanced Raman scattering. However, challenges suc... -
Jun 17, 2025Revolutionizing Diabetic Bone Repair: Innovative Implant Delivers Sustained Hydrogen TherapyResearchers develop an innovative implant delivers allowing for controlled and sustained H2 release to facilitate bone repair in diabetic conditions. Diabetes, a chronic metabolic disease marked by high blood sugar, is linked to complications that hinder tissue repair and immunity. Diabetic patients face significantly higher orthopedic implant f... -
Jun 11, 2025Dual-Laser Strategy Revolutionizes Breast Cancer Photothermal TherapyResearchers developed a dual-laser photothermal therapy (DLPTT) strategy for breast cancer therapy, which enhances tumor ablation while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues by using nea... Breast cancer is the most prevalent malignancy among women worldwide.
