A research team at the Korea University College of Medicine has uncovered a genetic mechanism responsible for delayed tooth development and impaired mineralization.

For decades, the conversation around obesity has had a single protagonist: body weight. The classic formula “eat less and move more” may generate initial changes, but the problem arises when the script demands sustainable endings. Evidence shows that many individuals regain weight in the years that follow if lifestyle changes are not maintained, fueling a cycle of frustration, stigma and disengagement from healthcare. In response to this scenario the Health at Every Size (HAES) approach proposes a paradigm shift: focusing on health and well being behaviors without positioning weight loss as the primary goal.

A review paper by scientists from Tianjin University presented light on brain-on-a-chip interfaces (BoCIs)—a groundbreaking technology that fuses lab-grown biological neural networks with electronic systems to enable bidirectional information exchange.

A study led by Professors Yingwei Wang and Daojie Xu at Huashan Hospital, Fudan University, has for the first time demonstrated that transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)—a noninvasive neuromodulation technique—can significantly reduce the incidence of emergence agitation (EA) during recovery from general anesthesia in patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), providing an innovative nonpharmacological solution for preventing postoperative agitation.
