Making sure that you pack everything you need for a trip can be challenging, but there’s an extra level of prep needed when you have sleep apnea because treating the condition often involves the use of a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine.[1]”Using a CPAP while traveling can be difficult,” says Chafen Hart, MD, a sleep medicine specialist at National Jewish Health in Denver. “You need a voltage converter for foreign travel, and the machine itself can be bulky. Also, while it counts as medical equipment, which allows you to bring it as a carry-on, lugging the machine around can…

Researchers have uncovered a surprising side effect of artificial lighting: ordinary streetlights can lure thousands of tiny land dwelling isopods into giant synchronized “death spirals.” The newly documented behavior, observed in Israel, is the first of its kind and suggests that human made lighting can dramatically disrupt the instincts of small ground dwelling animals. The study was led by PhD student Idan Sheizaf under the supervision of Prof. Ariel Chipman at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Published in Ecology and Evolution, the research describes how land dwelling isopods, relatives of crabs and shrimp that are better known as woodlice or…

A well-connected San Francisco activist turned political candidate is facing an allegation that he groped an acquaintance at a party in 2020. Manny Yekutiel, a cafe owner who’s hosted top Dems like Kamala Harris, Gov. Gavin Newsom and former First Lady Jill Biden at his Mission District hotspot Manny’s Cafe, is facing the upsetting sexual assault claim as he campaigns to represent the famed Castro neighborhood on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. Brad Chapin, a city gardener, alleged that Yekutiel brazenly accosted him at a house party in 2020 — grabbing his testicles before insulting his physique in claims…

Senator Mitch McConnell, Republican of Kentucky and the former majority leader, was hospitalized on June 14. Since then, his office has provided few updates about his condition.The scant official statements have led to speculation around Washington and efforts to piece together information on what happened. Here’s what we know about the situation.What has Mr. McConnell’s office said?The most recent statement from Mr. McConnell’s office, on Thursday, said that the senator “appreciates the outpouring of support he’s receiving while he continues his recovery in the hospital” and that he “continues to improve, and is working closely with his staff on Kentucky…

1. You’re Coughing LessChronic, uncontrollable coughing is the top symptom that most people struggle with when their bronchiectasis isn’t adequately managed.[3]“It can be debilitating,” says Dr. Metersky. That’s especially true when you’re having a flare, which is typically caused by bacterial lung infection.[4]Your coughing should decrease significantly as your treatment starts to kick in. “We may not mitigate the cough 100 percent, but we want to get it to the point where it’s manageable enough so you can do your daily activities,” says Sucharita Kher, MD, a pulmonologist and vice chair of clinical operations and quality for the department of…

Machine learning is giving scientists a powerful new way to search for superconductors, materials that conduct electricity with zero resistance. An international team has demonstrated that AI can rapidly narrow an almost limitless number of possible material combinations to identify the most promising candidates. According to Aalto University Professor Päivi Törmä, who leads the SuperC consortium, the approach could dramatically speed the discovery of new superconductors. Superconductors allow electric current to flow without losing energy, but only when cooled to extremely low temperatures where quantum effects emerge. These remarkable materials are already used in technologies ranging from quantum computers and…

When working with legendary filmmaker Christopher Nolan, even pros like Zendaya get nervous. During a recent interview for the Happy Sad Confused podcast, host Josh Horowitz asked the Emmy winner for more context on what led to her messing up her lines on the first day of filming for The Odyssey, as that didn’t sound like something Zendaya would do. The Drama actress admitted that it was already “nerve-racking” working on a Nolan set for the first time, but that she was also battling freezing conditions where they were shooting that day. “Here’s the thing. I had my lines and…
