Neuroscientists have been researching the effects of cannabis on the adolescent brain. Adolescence is associated with the maturation of cognitive functions, such as working memory, decision-making, impulsivity control and motivation, and the research presented suggests cannabis could have long-lasting, but possibly reversible effects on these. Weekly pharmacy visits boost drug adherence and quality of life in heart failure patients Elderly patients with heart failure who see a pharmacist once a week are more likely to take their tablets and be active in daily life, according to new results.

In vitro fertilization linked to deadly heart disease in pregnancy Women undergoing fertility treatment should urgently see their doctor if they have heart failure symptoms, according to a new study. Shortness of breath, swollen legs and waking up in the night to urinate could be warning signs of a pregnancy-associated heart failure called peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM). Adding a carbon atom transforms 2D semiconducting material A technique that introduces carbon-hydrogen molecules into a single atomic layer of the semiconducting material tungsten disulfide dramatically changes the electronic properties of the material, according to researchers who say they can create new types of components for energy-efficient photoelectric devices and electronic circuits with this material.

Soil communities threatened by destruction, instability of Amazon forests A meta-analysis of nearly 300 studies of soil biodiversity in Amazonian forests found that the abundance, biomass, richness and diversity of soil fauna and microbes were reduced following deforestation. Dead roots double shoreline loss in Gulf A new study finds that the loss of marsh-edge salt grasses and mangroves due to disturbances such as heavy oiling from the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill doubles the rate of shoreline erosion in hard-hit marshes. |
