    Trump’s envoy predicts more Arab countries to normalise ties with Israel – Middle East Monitor

    US President Donald Trump’s Middle East envoy predicts that more Arab countries will normalise relations with Israel as part of the so-called “Abraham Accords”.

    “We think [we] will have some, or a lot of announcements, very, very shortly, which we hope will yield great progress by next year,” Steve Witkoff said during an event organised by the Israeli Embassy in Washington yesterday night, as cited by the Jewish Insider.

    The event was held to mark the…

  • Low blood sugar contributes to eye damage and vision loss in diabetic retinopathy; experimental drug may help treat condition

    Low blood sugar contributes to eye damage and vision loss in diabetic retinopathy; experimental drug may help treat condition

    In a new National Institutes of Health-funded study led by scientists at the Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers say they have determined that low blood sugar, or hypoglycemia, may promote a breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier, an important boundary that regulates the flow of nutrients, waste and water in and out of the retina.

    The research, which investigated the phenomenon in diabetic mice, provides insights into the origin of diabetic retinopathy, specifically in…

  • Cutting greenhouse gases will reduce number of deaths from poor air quality

    Cutting greenhouse gases will reduce number of deaths from poor air quality

    Up to 250,000 deaths from poor air quality could be prevented annually in central and western Europe by 2050 if greenhouse gas emissions are drastically reduced, say researchers.

    A study by atmospheric scientists at the University of Leeds has revealed that the number of deaths could be significantly reduced, but only if there is a strong focus on reducing greenhouse gases and air pollutants.

    As well as finding that strong climate mitigation would result in large reductions in air quality…

  • Research advances on ‘displacing’ antibiotic resistance gene from bacteria

    Research advances on ‘displacing’ antibiotic resistance gene from bacteria

    Birmingham scientists have identified essential genetic code for a method called plasmid curing, which aims to ‘displace’ antibiotic resistance genes from bacteria.

    Plasmids, which are small, circular strands of DNA, play a crucial role in allowing bacteria to share beneficial genes rapidly in a changing environment, most concerningly when they carry genes conferring resistance to antibiotics.

    Professor Chris Thomas from Birmingham’s School of Biosciences has investigated plasmid curing for…

  • Social drinking also a well-worn path to alcohol use disorder

    Social drinking also a well-worn path to alcohol use disorder

    When picturing a “typical” alcoholic, people tend to imagine a person drinking at home alone. But that focus overlooks the social origins of many serious alcohol problems, say the authors of a new review paper in the journal Current Directions in Psychological Science.

    “Evidence for the centrality of social motives in problem drinking surround us,” write the authors, Catharine Fairbairn, a professor of psychology at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, and Dahyeon Kang, of the…

    ‘No safety guarantee’: Could Ukrainian drones target Putin’s Victory Day? | Russia-Ukraine war News

    Waves of Ukrainian drones have hit Moscow in recent days as the Russian capital prepares for the country’s most important national holiday, Victory Day, this week.

    Russia celebrates May 9 as Victory Day to mark the defeat of Nazi forces in World War II. The day involves a major military parade, with leaders of Russia’s allies often in attendance.

    But this year, the run-up to the day has been clouded by a warning from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who has said Kyiv cannot…
