Scientists use FAST to analyze FRB 20201124A and discover 90% circular polarization, a record high. The findings contradict theoretical models, suggesting pulsar-like mechanisms may be more plausible.
Pre-clinical trials show that targeted alpha radiation therapy can increase survival rates by up to 36.4% and has minimal adverse effects for patients. Researchers hope this new approach could improve current average survival rates beyond 18 months.
Researchers at the University of Michigan Health Rogel Cancer Center discovered that pediatric DIPG tumors have a distinct metabolic pathway that allows them to evade treatment. By inhibiting this pathway, radiation therapy became effective in killing cancer cells.
Researchers discovered the STAT3 signaling pathway as a potential target for treating H3K27M-mutant diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs), a uniformly lethal central nervous system malignancy. The current standard of care, including palliative radiation and chemotherapy, remains ineffective in this disease.
Researchers investigated H3K27me3 expression patterns in pediatric brain tumors, finding a global loss of this epigenetic mark in diffused midline glioma (DMG). This loss was associated with high relapse rates and poor survival, highlighting the potential for targeting H3K27me3 as an epigenetically guided cancer therapy.
Researchers have found that craniospinal radiation can control metastasis in diffuse midline gliomas, leading to improved treatment options for patients. The study suggests that this approach may lead to long-term survival and potentially curative effects for these children.
Researchers from Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science used diffusion tensor imaging to analyze the optic radiation in 13 healthy volunteers. The study found that the optic radiation fiber tract volume was approximately 0.16% and fractional anisotropy value was about 0.53, enabling accurate detection of probability pathways.
Researchers used diffusion tensor imaging to measure the volume of optic radiation fiber tracts in 13 healthy volunteers. The study found that the measured optic radiation fiber tract volume was approximately 0.16% and fractional anisotropy value was around 0.53.
New research reveals that tree leaves in different canopy positions respond to varying light conditions by changing shape and physiology. This adaptation allows trees to cope with stress and use resources more efficiently, with outer canopy leaves influencing the inner canopy's ability to utilize diffuse solar radiation.
Researchers found that beach umbrellas intercept direct sunlight but allow diffused ultraviolet radiation to pass through, with canvas having high absorption capacity. The study aims to improve understanding of skin cancer epidemiology and provide guidelines for UV protection.
Research reveals that changes in aerosol levels affect the type of landscape, with forests and croplands becoming carbon sinks due to increased shade, while grasslands become sources. The study suggests that aerosols alter the ground surface temperature, affecting photosynthesis rates.
