Earth Is Becoming Unfit To Live | Scientists Warn About Entering Into A Danger Zone!

Earth, our home, is in serious trouble! In a recent study involving 29 scientists from eight countries, alarming findings have emerged regarding the health of our planet. The study analyzes nine interconnected “planetary boundaries.” They represent thresholds that must be maintained to ensure a stable and habitable Earth. But we are stepping out of the safe levels of these boundaries! The scientists looked at these “planetary boundaries,” which are like limits we shouldn’t cross if we want Earth to stay healthy. These limits cover things like climate change, biodiversity (that’s all the different living things on Earth), water resources, and more. Exceeding these limits can push Earth into a danger zone. Crossing the Boundaries The study reveals that human activities have exceeded safe levels for…

7-Year-Old Girl Diagnosed with Dementia After Eye Test for Fuzzy Vision

Now, 10-year-old Isla Edwards underwent a routine eye test at school for little fuzzy vision, and she didn’t know that it would ultimately lead to the diagnosis of a fatal brain disease associated with dementia. In March 2021, at age 7, Isla’s vision problems during the eye test prompted suggestions that she might need glasses. However, her mother, Jacquelyn Stockdale, soon realized the situation was far graver than mere vision issues. Isla, otherwise a healthy child, diagnosed with a genetic condition known as Batten disease. This rare ailment manifests as childhood dementia, delayed development, seizures, blindness, and premature death. “At that time, there were no apparent signs of anything being amiss with Isla. Her vision was slightly fuzzy at long distances, but this was not…

Night Owls Will Have Higher Risk for Diabetes, Study Finds

A recent study reveal that individuals who tend to have later sleep are at an increased risk of developing diabetes compared to early risers.The research was conducted by the investigators at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, a founding member of the Mass General Brigham healthcare system. “People who think they are ‘night owls’ may need to pay more attention to their lifestyle because their evening chronotype may increase risk for type 2 diabetes.” As Tianyi Huang, the corresponding author and an associate epidemiologist at Brigham’s Channing Division of Network Medicine Previous research by these investigators had already demonstrated that individuals with irregular sleep schedules faced a heightened risk of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Moreover, those with evening chronotypes tended to have erratic sleep patterns.In their latest…

Three decades of research shows doctors measure blood pressure wrongly 

Recent research presented at the American Heart Association’s hypertension scientific session in Boston on September 7, 2023, suggests that the way doctors traditionally measure blood pressure may lead to the oversight of certain health complications. Doctors Measure Blood Pressure Wrongly, Says Report They discovered that doctors may not detect certain health complications if patients’ readings are only taken while sitting upright. https://t.co/3byhGWGQoG pic.twitter.com/UIpy8SQkjy — ARISE NEWS (@ARISEtv) September 10, 2023 Traditionally, 140/90mmHg or higher consider as high blood pressure. However, a nearly three-decade-long study conducted by researchers aimed to investigate how blood pressure measurements in different body positions could impact the assessment of health risks. The study’s authors noted that doctors might miss certain health complications if they solely rely on blood pressure readings taken…

A Bizarre 150-million-year-old Bird-Like Dinosaur Species Found | Scientists Can Now Bridge the Gap In Evolution!

Ever imagined a world where dinosaurs roamed our streets? scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery in China’s Fujian Province—a bizarre bird-like dinosaur that has the potential to bridge an evolutionary gap that’s puzzled scientists for years! Let’s dive in to know more about this strange creature. Say Hello to Fujianvenator prodigiosus! About 150 million years ago, when the world looked really different, a strange-looking creature walked through swamps where parts of China are today. This creature, called the Fujianvenator prodigiosus, was about the size of a chicken. The physiological attributes seem a little contradictory.

New Scientific Breakthrough | Researchers Found Device to Detect Organ Rejection After Transplant

Northwestern University scientists have created a new electronic device to monitor the condition of transplanted organs in real time.  This device, which is smaller than a quarter, sits directly on a transplanted kidney and can detect temperature changes associated with inflammation. Inflammation is a common sign of organ rejection.  When it detects such irregularities, it sends wireless alerts to a nearby smartphone or tablet, informing patients and physicians. In a recent study, researchers tested this new device on animals with transplanted kidneys. They found it could detect early warning signs of organ rejection up to three weeks before current monitoring methods.  This early detection could significantly improve patient outcomes and the chances of preserving donated organs.  Organs are increasingly in demand due to a shortage…
