Mindfulness practices have been found to be effective in reducing symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, many people with ADHD may find static meditation techniques challenging. In a recent study, researchers assessed individualized responses of people to sitting in various postures during body-scan meditation. The findings suggest that a slumped posture may reduce the ease of practice, while supine and upright positions may improve the ease of meditation for people with high hyperactivity/impulsivity tendency.

Small marine crustaceans are as valuable as key coastal habitats for storing carbon and should be similarly protected, according to new research.

A study reveals advances in the understanding and treatment of liver fibrosis, a serious complication in the context of metabolic fatty liver disease, also known as MASLD (metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease). This study concludes that activation of the PPAR / -AMPK pathway is an effective strategy to slow the development of liver fibrosis.

Doctors and pharmacists treating people with blood thinners can reduce the rate of inappropriate dosing -- as well as blood clots and strokes that can result from it -- using an electronic patient management system, a study suggests. Direct oral anticoagulants can be incorrectly prescribed up to 20% of the time.

Arsenal's Mariona Caldentey says more Spanish players are moving to the Women's Super League because "we won the World Cup and it changed nothing".

The process of food intake appears to be organized at the cellular level like a relay race: during eating, the baton is passed between different teams of neurons until we have consumed the appropriate amount of energy. Through this complex mechanism, the brain likely ensures that we neither eat too little nor too much. Malfunctions of this process may lead to eating disorders such as anorexia or binge eating.

Pollen not only plays a role in allergies, but also influences the local weather. Especially in spring, when large amounts are released, it contributes to the formation of ice in clouds, which can increase rainfall.

Recent research has revealed that a family of proteins called COI1, previously associated with defense mechanisms in other plant species like Arabidopsis and rice, primarily regulates growth in maize (corn). This finding could lead to developing more robust and productive maize varieties.

With aging comes bone density loss, especially in post-menopausal women. A new study finds that supplementing with blackcurrant can ameliorate a host of conditions, including postmenopausal bone loss and osteoporosis.

Watching for changes in Mars' orbit over time could be new way to detect passing dark matter, according to researchers.

Argentina experienced a 44 percent increase in reported antisemitic incidents last year, mostly after the Palestinian terror group Hamas’s Oct....

A key step toward reusing CO2 to make sustainable fuels is chaining carbon atoms together, and an artificial photosynthesis system can bind two of them into hydrocarbons with field-leading performance.

Thanks to a serendipitous discovery and a lot of painstaking work, scientists can now build biohybrid molecules that combine the homing powers of DNA with the broad functional repertoire of proteins -- without having to synthesize them one by one, researchers report. Using a naturally occurring process, laboratories can harness the existing molecule-building capacities of bacteria to generate vast libraries of potentially therapeutic DNA-protein hybrid molecules.

The European Reference Genome Atlas (ERGA) pilot project reports its success in uniting scientists from across Europe to produce high-quality reference genomes for 98 species. This marks a significant milestone in the quest to create a high-quality reference genome database for all European animals, plants and fungi.

Researchers developed an artificial motor at the supramolecular level that can develop impressive power. This wind-up motor is a tiny ribbon made of special molecules. When energy is applied, this ribbon aligns itself, moves like a small fin and can thus push objects. The energy for this comes from a chemical fuel.

According to a new 10-year study, screening for breast cancer with digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) increases cancer detection rates and significantly reduces the rate of advanced cancers compared to conventional 2D digital mammography.

With the help of NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, an international team of scientists has found more black holes in the early universe than has previously been reported. The new result can help scientists understand how supermassive black holes were created.

State police reported that a Georgia man was arrested after a traffic stop near East Fishkill.

In a new paper, physicists argue that close observations of merging black hole pairs may unveil information about potential new particles.

Nucor and Steel Dynamics forecast a drop in third-quarter earnings, citing weaker demand and shaky prices.

If you've noticed your lawn losing its vibrant green colour or bare patches creeping in, don't worry - it's not too late to revive it before autumn takes over.

Apple iPhone 16 was initially looking like a very strong prospect but a few analysts came forward to claim that the latest edition's demand could tank in the coming days, something that has already led to losses in Apple's market capitalization in recent while. Demand for Apple is generally at a peak during launch periods, but this time around, the hype is not seeming that great, as per reports.
