Three-drug combinations could help counter antibiotic resistance, biologists report

Posted: 22 Jul 2016 07:41 AM PDT

Bacteria resistance to antibiotics can be offset by combining three antibiotics that interact well together, even when none of the individual three, nor pairs among them, might be very effective in fighting harmful bacteria, life scientists report. This is an important advance because approximately 700,000 people each year die from drug-resistant infections.

Lack of sleep increases a child's risk for emotional disorders later

Posted: 22 Jul 2016 07:41 AM PDT

Physicists discover a new approach for building quantum computers

Posted: 22 Jul 2016 07:41 AM PDT

The main reason why quantum computers are so hard to manufacture is that now scientists still haven't find a simple way to control complex systems of qubits. This research discovers a different approach:Instead of uniting multiple two-state systems into one, authors use one system with multiple states. This approach proves to be more effiective, since it is easier to make a stable multi-level system, than to maintain stability in a complex system.

Some were surprised to spot American white pelicans this far north.

When it comes to empathy, don't always trust your gut

Posted: 22 Jul 2016 06:36 AM PDT

Is empathy the result of gut intuition or careful reasoning? Research suggests that, contrary to popular belief, the latter may be more the case.

Gastrointestinal disorders involve both brain-to-gut and gut-to-brain pathways

Posted: 22 Jul 2016 06:32 AM PDT

New research indicates that in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or indigestion, there is a distinct brain-to-gut pathway, where psychological symptoms begin first, and separately a distinct gut-to-brain pathway, where gut symptoms start first. In the study, higher levels of anxiety and depression were significant predictors of developing IBS or indigestion within 1 year.

Posted: 22 Jul 2016 06:32 AM PDT

Woody climbing vines, known as lianas, are preventing tropical forests from recovering and are hampering the ability of forests to store carbon, scientists are warning. Instead of taking decades to recover, tropical forests are at risk of taking hundreds of years to re-grow because of lianas, which spread rapidly following extensive tree-felling.

Blood of King Albert I identified after 80 years

Posted: 22 Jul 2016 06:29 AM PDT

The death of King Albert I of Belgium in 1934 -- officially a climbing accident -- still fuels speculation. Forensic geneticists have now compared DNA from blood found on the scene in 1934 to that of two distant relatives. Their analysis confirms that the blood really is that of Albert I. This conclusion is at odds with several conspiracy theories about the king's death.

Posted: 22 Jul 2016 06:29 AM PDT

Researchers have used computer simulations and robotics to uncover a surprising insight into the mechanics of locomotion, namely that taming instability -- a factor that might be a disadvantage -- is a key to the centipede's success.

Designer protein gives new hope to scientists studying Alzheimer's disease

Posted: 22 Jul 2016 06:29 AM PDT

Researchers have designed a new protein which strongly resembles Abeta. In people with Alzheimer's, Amyloid-beta (Abeta) proteins stick together to make amyloid fibrils which form clumps between neurons in the brain. It's believed the build-up of these clumps causes brain cells to die, leading to the cognitive decline in patients suffering from the disease.

Results from a recent study -- the first to directly address this question -- show that people with moderate or more severe pain had a 41 percent higher risk of developing prescription opioid use disorders than those without, independent of other demographic and clinical factors.

Shaken baby syndrome accepted as diagnosis by majority of physicians

Posted: 22 Jul 2016 06:29 AM PDT

Novel compounds arrested epilepsy development in mice

Posted: 22 Jul 2016 06:29 AM PDT

Neuroprotective compounds have been developed by scientists that may prevent the development of epilepsy. The researchers explained that the compounds prevented seizures and their damaging effects on dendritic spines, specialized structures that allow brain cells to communicate. In epilepsy, these structures are damaged and rewire incorrectly, creating brain circuits that are hyper-connected and prone to seizures, an important example of pathological plasticity.

Posted: 21 Jul 2016 12:12 PM PDT

Researchers have found a way to efficiently create composite materials containing hundreds of layers that are just atoms thick but span the full width of the material. The discovery could lead to easy-to-manufacture composites for optical devices, electronic systems, and high-tech materials.

Neural networks: Why larger brains are more susceptible to mental illnesses

Posted: 21 Jul 2016 12:12 PM PDT

In humans and other mammals, the cerebral cortex is responsible for sensory, motor, and cognitive functions. A new study shows that the global architecture of the cortical networks in large-brained primates and small-brained rodents is organized by common principles. However, primate brains have weaker long-distance connections, which could explain why large brains are more susceptible to mental illnesses including schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease.
