Low doses of plastic chemical DEHP found to disrupt key hormones and fertility in females

MyBlueDots2 months ago01 mins

A study from the Institute of Environmental Medicine (IMM) at Karolinska Institutet published in Toxicological Sciences shows that the chemical di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), which is found in many plastic products, has clear negative effects on hormones and fertility endpoints relevant to female fertility.

Brain wave decoder helps control spinal cord stimulation

MyBlueDots2 months ago01 mins

When a person sustains an injury to the spinal cord, the normal communication between the brain and the spinal circuits below the injury is interrupted, resulting in paralysis. Because the brain is functioning normally, as is the spinal cord below the injury, researchers have been working to re-establish communication to allow for rehabilitation and potentially restore movement.

Sexual trauma during military service linked to higher risk of suicide and overdose death later in life

MyBlueDots2 months ago01 mins

A longitudinal cohort study of older veterans found that a history of military sexual trauma (MST) is associated with increased risk for any suicide attempt and death by drug overdose in both women and men, especially those who also have post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Ferritin levels do not appear to be significantly associated with fertility or metabolic health in women with PCOS

MyBlueDots2 months ago01 mins

Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) tend to have higher average ferritin levels compared to control subjects, but this does not seem to have a significant impact on their fertility or metabolic health. Iron deficiency also does not appear to be associated with infertility in women with PCOS.

Managing multiple risk factors can offset hypertension death risk

MyBlueDots2 months ago01 mins

Hypertension affects more than one-third of the global adult population and is a leading contributor to early death from cardiovascular and other chronic diseases. While treatments for high blood pressure are widely available, many patients still face elevated health risks due to poor management of other contributing factors, such as obesity, high cholesterol, diabetes, and sedentary lifestyles.

Study reveals how musical expression affects pianists’ risk of musculoskeletal injury

MyBlueDots2 months ago01 mins

Playing the piano involves much more than striking the keyboard. The pianist’s entire body is in movement, from the torso to the fingers. But how does the musical expression generated by this choreography heighten the risk of self-inflicted, long-term injury?
