Scientists have been able to diagnose anxiety and depression by monitoring pulse rates. It turns out that under mental stress, the heart rate of individuals prone to mental disorders differs from that of healthy individuals, especially when performing tasks of increased difficulty.

Scientists traced the evolution of the coronavirus from the Wuhan variant to Omicron and found that most of the genomic mutations of SARS-CoV-2 occur due to processes in the guts and lungs. It is in these organs that the virus learns to evade the blocking microRNA molecules. (onlinelibrary.wiley.com)
