University of Washington researchers created MobiPrint, a mobile 3D printer that can automatically measure a room and print objects onto the floor. The team’s graphic interface lets users design objects in a space that the robot has mapped out. The prototype, which the team built on a modified consumer vacuum robot, can add a range of objects to rooms.
La radioterapia es un tratamiento común para el cáncer, ¿pero también podría ayudar a tratar los ritmos cardíacos perjudiciales? Mayo Clinic recientemente concluyó el primer ensayo clínico en humanos utilizando la terapia con haz de protones, un tipo de radiación para tratar a pacientes con arritmias potencialmente mortales. Los investigadores afirman que los resultados iniciales son alentadores.

People in early middle age who have poor sleep quality, including having difficulty falling or staying asleep, have more signs of poor brain health in late middle age, according to a study published in the October 23, 2024, online issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology.
In middle-aged people, having risk factors like blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol that are not well-controlled combined with not following certain healthy habits including exercise, diet and sleep, are linked to a higher risk of stroke, dementia or depression later in life, according to a study published in the October 23, 2024, online issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology. These results do not prove that not having healthy habits increases the risk of these conditions, they only show an association.
Quanto tempo uma pessoa consegue ficar em pé — em uma perna só — é uma medida mais reveladora do envelhecimento do que mudanças na força ou na marcha, de acordo com uma nova pesquisa da Mayo Clinic. O estudo foi publicado hoje na revista PLOS ONE.
