Machine learning and deep learning technologies for enhancing the ability to predict bleeding risks is just one of many dramatic changes occurring in the management of hemophilia. Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) applications are opening new avenues for the management of hereditary hemophilia (A and B) and acquired hemophilia. AI holds the promise for optimizing treatment regimens and monitoring disease progression with greater precision, according to a review published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences.
The Silver State and the Lone Star State may swing different ways politically, but they have at least one thing in common: an “F” rating for partisan gerrymandering. Nevada’s 2021 rejiggering of the state’s congressional districts received the failing grade from Princeton University’s nonpartisan Gerrymandering Project Redistricting Report Card for giving Democrats a significant electoral advantage in the U.S. House of Representatives.
Here in Nevada, no mid-decade redistricting has ever been attempted. But that doesn't mean the state hasn't seen its share of redistricting drama on both sides of the aisle. And while repeated attempts to turn redistricting over to an independent commission here have failed, one proponent of the idea says she'll try again this year.
Nearly one-fifth of Nevada’s land area has been burned by wildfire in the past 40 years, landing the state fifth in the nation for land area burned by wildfires, according to a recent study by the Lied Center for Real Estate at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Nevada has filed a lawsuit against the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), accusing the agency of refusing to release full records of alleged communication with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The ACLU claims it has been seeking these records since February.
If you follow a plant-based diet or enjoy meatless meals, you've likely incorporated veggie burgers into your rotation. But are veggie burgers healthy, like many people think? The patties have become increasingly popular in recent years, as they're often touted as "better" alternatives to traditional beef burgers. Yet, some veggie burgers are also highly processed, making it difficult to know which type of patty is best.
The discovery of thirteen teeth dating back 2.6 to 2.8 million years confirms that Homo and an enigmatic Australopithecus coexisted in Ethiopia, revealing a more complex human evolution.
The research team discovered 13 teeth in sediments dating back to 2.6 to 2.8 million years ago. Tooth fossils discovered in Ethiopia introduced a new Australopithecus species to the scientific world.
This was announced in a study published in Nature, in which an international team of researchers describes the discovery in the Afar region of Ethiopia of 13 fossilized teeth between 2.8 and 2.6 million years old, which could belong to a previously unidentified species of Australopithecus that coexisted with early humans.
