Pancreatic cancer is a tough opponent. Doctors are always looking for clues to predict how patients will respond to treatment. One such clue might be neutropenia, a condition where white blood cells drop to low levels. This often happens as a side effect of chemotherapy. In a recent study, research
The baseball world is buzzing with trade deadline chatter, and three players are at the center of it all. First up, there's Eugenio Suarez. He took a pitch to the hand, and while initial X-rays were clear, more tests are coming. Suarez is a top target for many teams, but any health concerns could m
Ever wondered what makes ginger so special? It's all about the gingerols and shogaols. These are the compounds that give ginger its unique kick and health benefits. But how do we study them? Enter HPLC, a cool technique that can separate and analyze these compounds with ease. Traditional methods ha
The Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo 2025 is making waves in the electric vehicle (EV) market. It's not just another car; it's a blend of luxury, performance, and a touch of adventure. This model stands out with its updated design, more power, quicker acceleration, and improved charging speed. The Cros
Epilepsy is a common condition, yet many teachers feel unprepared to handle it in the classroom. This can lead to students with epilepsy missing out on learning and feeling left out. A recent study set out to change that by creating a clear, practical guide for teachers. The study focused on what t
Scientists have created a new tool to detect tiny changes in our bodies. This tool, called a biosensor, can find very small amounts of a harmful chemical called bisphenol A (BPA). BPA is found in many plastics and can cause problems in our bodies. The biosensor uses special materials called SrTiO3
The Detroit Lions kicked off their training camp with a bit of bad luck. On Sunday, cornerback Ennis Rakestraw had to exit practice early due to a chest injury. The team is still figuring out how serious it is. This isn't Rakestraw's first run-in with injuries. Last season, as a second-round pick,
Scientists have been digging into how clobenprobit (CB) and another compound, IT1t, work their magic to reduce inflammation. They've found that these compounds interact with a specific receptor in our bodies called CXCR4. This receptor is like a doorway that lets certain signals in, and CB and IT1t
Engines are getting a green makeover. Scientists have been testing different fuel mixes to make engines cleaner and more efficient. They tried six fuels: regular diesel, a biofuel called Citronella, and four blends that mix hydrogen with biofuel. The star of the show was the H40 blend, which had 40%
Concrete structures can be a source of environmental trouble, especially when they come into contact with harmful chemicals like PFAS. These chemicals, often found in firefighting foams, can stick around in concrete and pose risks to the environment. To tackle this issue, researchers explored the us
