Abstract


Rare diseases are diseases that affect fewer than 1 in 2,000 people. Due to their rarity, it can be extremely challenging for doctors to diagnose these diseases in their patients — it often takes 6 – 8 years for some patients to get a diagnosis. Even though they are uncommon, rare diseases still have a significant impact on families and communities and need greater attention. Fatal familial insomnia (FFI) is a rare disease that affects the brain and gradually reduces a person’s ability to sleep. FFI gets worse over time and causes severe complications. There is currently no cure for FFI, so more research is crucial — not only for understanding FFI but also for unlocking potential treatments for other rare diseases. Rare disease research brings hope for a better future to those living with FFI and other rare conditions.

Q3729490 Inglês
    UNICEF reports that, for the first time, global childhood obesity has surpassed underweight rates, with one in ten school-aged children now obese, about 188 million worldwide. Meanwhile, one in five children under 19 years old globally, or 391 million, is overweight.

    Kids are considered overweight if they carry excess weight for their age, sex and height, while obesity is a more severe form that greatly increases the risk of serious health problems later in life. Between year 2000 and 2022, obesity rates among those aged 5 to 19 more than tripled from 3% to 9.4%, while underweight cases fell.

    The shift is driven by the rise of ultra-processed foods, which are replacing fruits, vegetables and proteins. Obesity hotspots are emerging worldwide, especially in low and middle-income countries still battling undernutrition, while wealthy nations like the United States, United Arab Emirates and Chile also show high rates. Pacific Island nations face the highest prevalence, with up to 40% of youth obese.

    The crisis is fueled by aggressive junk food marketing, with 75% of children exposed weekly. Obesity raises risks of diabetes, heart disease and cancer. UNICEF is calling for urgent restrictions on unhealthy food marketing and school bans, warning of severe health impacts for the next generation.

Q3729487 Inglês
    The British Medical Journal published a study which showed that 1 billion young people were at risk of hearing loss.

    Researchers shared their analysis of data from 2000 to 2021 on unsafe listening practices. If the volume is too loud for too long, headphones, a concert, or even a restaurant could cause irreversible damage. Young people are complaining about persistent ringing in their ears, although their hearing tests look normal. However, several years later, their hearing reduces.

    The loud sounds damage sensory cells in the cochlea, the snail-looking part in the inner ear. Once these cells die, you can’t get them back. 85 decibels sound like a blender, 100 decibels sound like a subway train and 120 decibels sound like a concert or a siren.

    According to experts, 85 decibels during a 40- hour work week is the maximum safe limit. Just 2.5 hours of 92 decibels can damage your ears. However, only one episode of intense noise exposure can lead to lifelong hearing loss.

Q3727659 Inglês
    Recent research suggests that about one in seven life-threatening allergic reactions are caused by foods not currently listed on mandatory allergen labels.

    Food allergies are rising, yet regulations, such as the European Union’s 14-item allergen list from 2011, have not been updated in years.

   To identify overlooked triggers, Dominique Sabouraud-Leclerc and colleagues analyzed 2999 cases of food-induced anaphylaxis reported between 2002 and 2023 to the Allergy-Vigilance Network. They found that goat or sheep milk, buckwheat, peas, lentils, pine nuts, kiwi, apples, beehive products and alpha-gal (a sugar that can trigger an allergy to red meat and other mammalian products) were responsible for about 14% of reactions. Goat and sheep cheese caused particularly severe outcomes, including two deaths, and hidden exposures in processed foods increased risks.

      Based on these findings, the researchers recommend adding goat and sheep milk products, peas, lentils, buckwheat and pine nuts to Europe’s mandatory allergen labelling. They argue that clearer information is crucial for protecting allergic individuals and could inspire broader international policy updates.

Q3727657 Inglês
    For over 35 years, Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, in United States of America, has been helping infant patients and their families through a volunteer cuddler program.

    When families are away from the hospital’s neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), volunteers comfort infants with cuddles. Families can’t be in the hospital all the time, but the babies had needs after they left. The staff understood these needs and volunteer cuddlers helped. A lot of the volunteers are parents whose children were in the NICU before. After undergoing extensive training, they are using their experiences and skills to provide other parents a sense of relief and security.

    Studies show that interactions like holding, rocking, singing, reading and talking to the infants reduce stress and pain, and they improve their overall physical health.

How to Minecraft


Create! Explore! Survive! The basics for getting into the game! Minecraft is a game about placing blocks and having adventures. It's a survival experience about staying alive in your own fantastic world, that's also a creative space to build almost anything you can imagine!

We know Minecraft can be intimidating to newcomers, so we've assembled this simple guide to get you started. Trust us, you'll be a miner expert in no time!

[…]


Starting Out and Survival Tips!


Select Singleplayer in the Main Menu, then Create New World. You'll see this:


The health bar (the hearty looking one). Don't let it drop to zero. Otherwise, it's game over!


The food bar (the tasty looking one). When it's full, your health will regenerate, so keep snacking!


[…]

The secrets to survival are having a steady supply of food and staying safe from monsters. Luckily, building a shelter is easy. Your hand is your first mining tool, so use it to hit trees or dirt until they turn into blocks. These blocks will appear in your toolbar, and you can then place them right in front of you.



Build your shelter, making sure there’s no way for monsters to get in! Later, you'll be able to build doors, windows, etc., but for now, focus on surviving! Most monsters come out at night, so stay inside until sunrise and you'll be safe. Animals are everywhere and only take a few attacks to finish off. They’ll drop meat which restores health. There's also apples, melons and other veggie options to be found if you're vegetarian […]. Hmmm, you've got a point.


The first shelter you build will likely look like this, er, 'cosy' one here. Hey, we all start somewhere!
