Negative results overall hid a benefit for some who won the insurance lottery in Oregon

Humans with monogenic inborn errors responsible for extreme disease phenotypes can reveal essential physiological pathways. We investigated germline mutations in GNAI2, which encodes Gαi2, a key component in heterotrimeric G protein signal transduction ...

MIT physicists and colleagues created a five-lane superhighway for electrons that could allow ultra-efficient electronics and more.

New data highlighted the vulnerability of ILD patients to pneumothorax in the native lung after single-lung transplant.

Research Highlights: Drinking two or more cups of coffee a day was associated with twice the risk of death from cardiovascular disease among people with...

The new research brings data to an area of ambiguity, but the findings come with caveats.

A team of scientists in Japan examined whether cats (Felis catus) matched familiar cats' names and faces and human family members' names and faces.

MIT engineers found a way to dramatically improve the signal emitted by fluorescing nanosenors. The researchers showed they could implant sensors as deep as 5.5 centimeters in tissue and still get a strong signal.

Researchers have found a high incidence of coffee leaf rust (CLR) disease in Vietnam, the world's second-largest coffee producer. Potential origins and migration routes were revealed, as well as a close genetic relationship with several Central and South American rust fungus populations. These findings will help to predict future spread of CLR, and highlight the need to consider seedling sources and human…

Scientists reveal a way to make ammonia from its constituent molecules of nitrogen and hydrogen at ambient pressure.

A multicenter cohort study found that a high fresh frozen plasma to red blood cell ratio had a nonlinear association with reduced mortality in patients with severe blunt trauma.

Researchers suggest various explanations for provocative finding

The human brain appears biased toward hearing and producing rhythms with simple integer ratios, but the favored ratios can vary greatly between different societies, according to a 15-country study led by MIT researchers.

Astrophysicists found the "clumpiness" of Universe's dark matter to be 0.76, a figure conflicting with the Cosmic Microwave Background value of 0.83, indicating possible errors or an incomplete cosmological model. The research used the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program data and will further

A team of researchers at OU has discovered a protein complex that plays a crucial role in the development of rheumatoid arthritis. Furthermore, their findings demonstrate that celastrol, the active compound found in a medicinal herb, effectively hinders the advancement of the disease by inhibiting t

About 100 million years ago, a group of trendsetting moths started flying during the day rather than at night, taking advantage of nectar-rich flowers that had co-evolved with bees. This single event led to the evolution of all butterflies. Scientists have known the precise timing of this event s

Study reveals a novel molecular pathway that helps to control homeostasis and sleep rhythms in the brain.

Cluster headache and migraine are strongly linked to the circadian system, new findings that could have significant treatment implications.

Heart failure and liver stiffness often coexist due to cardio-hepatic interactions.
