The authors looked at the ability to detect heart disease before the onset of severe clinical symptoms.

Depression affects millions globally, yet identifying symptoms remains challenging. This study explored detecting depression-related patterns in social media texts using natural language processing and machine learning algorithms, including decision trees and random forests. Our findings suggest that analyzing online text activity can serve as a viable method for screening mental disorders, potentially improving diagnosis accuracy by incorporating both physical and psychological indicators.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) can cause significant impairment, and studies indicate that delays in diagnosis and treatment lead to worse outcomes. This study aimed to assess whether these delays have improved over the past three decades and to identify their causes.

Here, seeking to explore new antimicrobial therapies, the authors investigated the antimicrobial activity of Maitake mushroom extract against Staphylococcus epidermidis, a common cause of antibiotic resistant hospital-acquired infections. They found that Maitake extract showed potent antimicrobial activity, with higher concentrations showing inhibition comparable to tetracycline.

The authors test potential anti-inflammatory and pro-apoptotic effects of a polyherbal extract formulation on cultured breast cancer cells.

In this study, the authors conduct a survey of high school students to evaluate the effects of screen time and habits on motivation.

In this experiment, the authors used C. elegans as a simple model organism to observe the impact of probiotics on the human digestive system. The results of the experiments showed that the C. elegans were, on average, most present in Chobani cultures over other tested yogurts. While not statistically significant, these results still demonstrated that C. elegans might prefer Chobani cultures over other probiotic yogurts, which may also indicate greater gut benefits from Chobani over the other yogurt brands tested.

The authors survey adults to assess how childhood adversity may impact adult relationships and ways of giving or receiving affection.

The authors looked at the immunogenicity of a newly developed pneumococcal conjugate vaccine compared to a previously developed one. They found the newly developed vaccine did elicit an immune response.

This study explored how green spaces, climate, traffic, and air quality (GCTA) collectively influence asthma-related emergency department visits in the U.S using machine learning models and explainable AI.
