Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects over a third of the global population and is linked to serious health problems. A new study has revealed that high blood pressure, diabetes, and low HDL cholesterol are the deadliest cardiometabolic risk factors for patients with MASLD, with high blood pressure proving to be even riskier than diabetes. The findings also show that obesity and body mass index significantly influence mortality, and that each additional risk factor compounds the danger.

The surprising ant strategy that could transform robotics
August 16, 2025By
Weaver ants have cracked a teamwork puzzle that humans have struggled with for over a century — instead of slacking off as their group grows, they work harder. These tiny architects not only build elaborate leaf nests but also double their pulling power when more ants join in. Using a “force ratchet” system where some pull while others anchor, they outperform the efficiency of human teams and could inspire revolutionary advances in robotics cooperation.

The surprising brain chemistry behind instant friendships
August 14, 2025By
UC Berkeley scientists found oxytocin is key for quickly forming strong friendships, but less critical for mate bonds. In prairie voles, a lack of oxytocin receptors delayed bonding and reduced partner selectivity, changing how the brain releases oxytocin and affecting social behavior.
