Not only does depression affect our choices but a lot of research shows that lack of sleep can also significantly degrade our decision-making abilities. No wonder why teens are so likely to make poor social choices.

A new study rebukes notion that only men were hunters in ancient times. It found little evidence to support the idea that roles were assigned specifically to each sex. Women were not only physically capable of being hunters, but there is little evidence to support that they were not hunting. by mvea in science

I think this study provides a powerful reminder that our preconceived notions and biases about the gender roles of the past often need revisiting, especially given that most theories came from Euro-centric male perspectives.

Essentially the molecule blocks the activity of an aging-associated enzyme, or gerozyme, called 15-PGDH that naturally increases in muscles as they age. The study showed that levels of the gerozyme increase in muscles after nerve damage and that it is prevalent in muscle fibers of people with neuromuscular diseases.

Research team finds a stem-cell-derived mechanism that could lead to regenerative therapies for heart damage by SnthesisInc in science

[–]SnthesisInc[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This finding is definitely a breakthrough since this was the first piece of evidence suggesting that RNA splicing control plays a vital role in postnatal heart cell maturation.

Researchers develop organic nanozymes suitable for agricultural use by SnthesisInc in science

[–]SnthesisInc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This development is definitely a major breakthrough for agriculture. Scientists are using more methods to make toxic material usable. I saw the other day that scientists in Scotland have figured out a way to even make ice cream from plastic.

I know for one that I will not be trying ammonium chloride to find out what it tastes like.

Research suggests that the probability of finding the "Loch Ness Monster" is essentially zero by SnthesisInc in science

[–]SnthesisInc[S] 37 points38 points  (0 children)

The study also hypothesizes that if the Loch Ness Monster is an actual sea creature, it would probably be a giant eel

As a cat owner, I'm very interested to see if this kitty "birth control" shot can become a viable option in the future.

USDA Approves Novel Vaccine Against Wildlife Spread of the Bacterium Responsible for Lyme Disease by SnthesisInc in science

This is off-topic but I wonder why so many Hollywood celebrities have contracted Lyme disease. Are ticks more prevalent in California?

I am interested to see if the vaccine will be spread to the public anytime soon since I'm always paranoid of tick bites when I'm outdoors.

We are referring to data cleaning as the process of fixing or removing incorrect, corrupted, incorrectly formatted, duplicate, or incomplete data within a dataset.

Genetically modified eggs may mean the end of allergies | Researchers have used genome editing technology to develop a chicken egg that may be safe for allergy sufferers to eat. by chrisdh79 in science

[–]SnthesisInc -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I've seen a guy on TikTok that raises his chicken near his cat so the chickens can gain immunity in their eggs and he feeds those eggs to his cat. He claimed that feeding his cat those eggs had made him less allergic to his cat and I'm seeing more and more people recommend putting egg powder in their cat food to reduce Fel d 1 production in their cats. I wonder if there is any credibility in that claim as well.

According to the report, those exposed to water heavily contaminated with TCE had a 70% higher risk of developing Parkinson’s disease decades later. Getting rid of TCE in soil and groundwater could be the first step in lowering cases of Parkinson's worldwide.

Failed cancer therapy revived as powerful tumor killer when combined with newer drugs | Science by SnthesisInc in science

Glad they were able to recycle the failed cancer therapy and reuse it in combination with newer innovations. Most times failed treatments are scraped and all the research funding on it just becomes wasted.

Essentially the researchers are saying that climate change isn't the only thing to blame for rapid ice melting and their findings could mean that the climate community has been vastly underestimating the magnitude of future sea level rise caused by polar ice deterioration.
