El futuro de la monitorización alimentaria con wearables está en los sonidos
[image: El futuro de la monitorización alimentaria con wearables está en los sonidos] AutoDietary es un wearable en pruebas que detecta los alimentos que comemos gracias al sonido que hacemos al masticarlos. Con ellos puede monitorizar y enviar información detallada a los smartphones. El sonido que hacemos al masticar es una de las características que hacen único a cada alimento, y también el que producen en el momento de molerlos o tragarlos. Por ello, Wenyao Xu, un informático de la Universidad de Buffalo los está catalogando. La idea es hacer crecer una base de datos para AutoDi... más »
Healthy heart equals healthy brain

Scientists discover a link between psoriasis and general bone loss
Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily - Hace 10 horas
For the first time, researchers have linked psoriasis to the risk of widespread bone loss and describe how the protein IL-17 acts as a 'messenger' between the skin and the bones. IL-17 inhibitors, some of which already on the market, could simultaneously address skin inflammation and associated bone loss. These results recommend monitoring the bone mass of patients with psoriasis to select the most appropriate treatment. The study has potential implications in other autoimmune diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease.
'Coral on a chip' cracks coral mysteries
Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily - Hace 11 horas
The world’s corals are dying, with tremendous effects on climate and ocean health – however, much about why coral dies is still unknown. Now, a team of researchers has created a new experimental platform – a “coral on a chip” – that lets them grow coral in the lab to study the structures’ complicated lives at microscale resolution.
Temporary disconnects shed light on long-term brain dysfunction
Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily - Hace 11 horas
Using optogenetics to study long-range communication across the brain, a team of researchers temporarily silenced long-range axons so as to determine their role in the brain’s conversation. As mental and neurological diseases are thought to be related to disrupted long-range connectivity, the team’s findings could lead to better understanding and treatment of such disorders.

Within six families, a path to personalized treatment for an immune disorder
Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily - Hace 11 horas
The most common immune disorder, common variable immunodeficiency disorder (CVID), is notoriously difficult to diagnose early, before serious complications develop. Genetic analysis of six families from across the U.S. and Europe has revealed that mutations in IKAROS, known for its central role in immune cell development, define a new class of CVID. This study's results open the door to personalized health care tailored to patients with this disorder.
Viruses 'piggyback' on host microbes' success
Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily - Hace 11 horas
It has generally been assumed that in a growing population of microbes, viruses also multiply and kill their hosts, keeping the microbial population in check. A recent study of virus-host dynamics near coral reefs suggests that, under certain conditions, viruses can change their infection strategy. As potential host microbes become more numerous, some viruses forego rapid replication and opt instead to reside peaceably inside their host, thereby reducing their the viruses' numbers.
