New mRNA Therapy Could Repair Damaged Lungs
Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania

A combination of mRNA and a new lipid nanoparticle could help heal damaged lungs, according to new research from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. Viruses, physical trauma, or other problems can have serious impact on lungs, and when the damage is in the lower regions, traditional treatments, like inhaled medication, might not work.

New ACS Research Finds Low Uptake of Supportive Care at the End-of-Life for Patients with Advanced Cancer
American Cancer Society (ACS)

Despite considerable efforts to improve the quality of end-of-life care in the United States, a new retrospective study led by American Cancer Society researchers revealed that close to half of patients with advanced cancer received potentially aggressive care at the end-of-life at the expense of supportive care. The findings are out today in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Health Forum.

Ultrasound Promotes Phenolic Synthesis in Fresh-Cut Red Cabbages via High Energy Levels.
Chinese Academy of Sciences

Researchers innovatively applied ultrasonic technology to the cleaning of fresh-cut red cabbage to reduce surface microbial contamination and pesticide residues. The phenolic compound synthesis in fresh-cut red cabbage was found to increase after ultrasonic cleaning. The use of ATP and DNP treatments confirmed that the accumulation of phenolic compounds induced by ultrasonic cleaning is closely related to elevated energy levels.

Boom Skin Care, One Out of Two Persons Buys Dedicated Products. Men Are Also Protagonists of This New Passion, Skin Care for 1 Out of 5
UniversitĂ  Cattolica del Sacro Cuore

We all felt in love for skin care: about one in two persons use skin care products, out of these 45% use them every day, 35% several times a day and only 7% less than once a week. It is mainly women who use skin care products, over 7 out of 10, and also those who have already undertaken cosmetic surgery, just over 7 out of 10.
