Why US Indo-Pacific ‘burden sharing’ risks deepening polarisation and big power rivalry

The US push to promote “burden sharing” among its allies in the Indo-Pacific has seen it focusing on increasing its military capacity while lowering the political temperature in an effort to reassure its allies. But some analysts have questioned its chances of succeeding, arguing that this deterrence strategy has intensified great power rivalry and polarisation in the region, while driving deeper bilateral cooperation between China and Russia on the one hand and Russia and North Korea on the...

Britain's quarter century: Experts in sex, mental health, nutrition and addiction assess nation's changing well-being

A good way to follow the health of a nation is to glance at what is known as period life expectancy. This calculates how long a person born today would live if the current death rates remained exactly the same for the rest of their life. This had two major turning points in the UK over the period: a marked slowdown in improvements from around 2011 and a sharp, historically unprecedented fall in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic.

La evolución de nuestros ojos esconde un giro de guion: la ciencia apunta a un "gusano cíclope" de hace 600 millones de años

El propio Charles Dawin llegó a confesar que la idea de que el ojo humano se hubiera formado por selección natural parecía algo completamente absurdo. Hoy, la ciencia no solo le da la razón a su teoría, sino que incluso va más allá al apuntar que en realidad nuestros ojos vienen de un único "ojo" central, como si fuera un cíclope. El origen de los ojos. Aunque pueda parecer algo sencillo de entender, la realidad es que para la ciencia es un auténtico misterio el porqué de que contemos con dos ojos con una altísima calidad visual. Durante décadas, los científicos han trazado cómo un simple…

New approach opens rare immune cells to genetic risk research

Much of how genetic risk leads to disease has remained hidden. In many cases, genetic variants linked to disease do not act on nearby genes along the chromosome. Instead, they influence genes located far away along the DNA sequence. This happens because DNA is folded inside the cell, bringing distant regions into physical contact.

New obesity definitions reveal ill health more accurately than body mass index

Traditionally, obesity has been classified primarily using BMI, a measure of weight relative to height that provides limited information about whether excess fat is actually affecting a person's health. BMI levels have historically played a central role in determining eligibility and priority for metabolic bariatric surgery—operations on the stomach that help people lose weight and treat health conditions, such as type 2 diabetes.

Scientists detect a surprising shift in human blood as CO2 rises

Rising carbon dioxide in the atmosphere may be leaving a measurable imprint inside the human body. Researchers analyzing more than two decades of U.S. health data found that blood bicarbonate levels have climbed about 7% since 1999, while calcium and phosphorus have declined—changes that closely track increasing atmospheric CO2.

When gut microbes run low on fiber, they may start eating you

Gut microbes need something to eat, and when fiber is limited, they may begin consuming proteins from the mucus lining that protects the gut. Researchers found that fiber can suppress this process, while indigestible plant proteins help microbes produce more beneficial compounds.

Scientists solve the mystery of a brain “switch” that can trigger weight loss in opposite ways

Scientists have uncovered why two seemingly opposite ways of targeting the same brain receptor can both promote weight loss. In mice, activating the GIP receptor in the brainstem reduced appetite, while blocking it in the hypothalamus removed a kind of “brake” on fullness signals. The discovery helps explain why very different obesity drugs can achieve similar results and suggests that carefully combining GIP-targeting treatments with GLP-1 drugs like those related to Wegovy and Ozempic could produce stronger effects.
