This episode cuts through the noise and explains why creatine is one of the most effective, well-researched supplements for women, not just for building muscle, but for thinking sharper, recovering faster, and staying steady when life is heavy. We break down the physiology, the misconceptions, and the real-world benefits so you can use creatine with clarity and confidence.I used one main paper to research all the mechanistic stuff for this episode. It is free to access and it's AMAZING:Creatine Supplementation Beyond Athletics: Benefits of Different Types of Creatine for Women, Vegans, and Clinical Populations — A Narrative ReviewGutiérrez-Hellín J., Del Coso J., Franco-Andrés A., Gamonales J.M., Espada M.C., González-García J., López-Moreno M., Varillas-Delgado D.Nutrients (2025).PMCID: PMC11723027 | DOI: 10.3390/nu17010095Then some of the other studies I mentioned can be found here: 1. Single Dose Creatine Improves Cognitive Performance and Induces Changes in Cerebral High-Energy Phosphates During Sleep DeprivationGordji-Nejad A., Matusch A., Kleedörfer S., Patel H.J., Drzezga A., Elmenhorst D., Binkofski F., Bauer A.Scientific Reports (2024).PMCID: PMC10902318 | DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-54249-9What it's aboutA high single dose of creatine helped offset the cognitive decline and metabolic stress caused by sleep deprivation, temporarily boosting brain energy systems and mental performance.2. Creatine Promotes Endometriosis Progression by Inducing M2 Polarization of Peritoneal MacrophagesChen S.-M., Liu Y.-K., Ma X.-Q., Wei C.-Y., Li M.-Q., Zhu X.-Y.Reproduction (2024).DOI: 10.1530/REP-24-0278 | PMID: 39679878What it's aboutThis study found that creatine can shift peritoneal macrophages into an M2, pro-growth state, which may accelerate inflammation, angiogenesis, and lesion development in endometriosis.3. Effects of Long-Term Low-Dose Dietary Creatine Supplementation in Older WomenLobo D.M., Tritto A.C., da Silva L.R., de Oliveira P.B., Benatti F.B., Roschel H., Nieß B., Gualano B., Pereira R.M.R.Experimental Gerontology (2015).DOI: 10.1016/j.exger.2015.07.012 | PMID: 26192975What it's aboutA year of very low-dose creatine (1 g/day) was safe but too small a dose to produce measurable changes in bone health, lean mass, or muscle function in postmenopausal women.

The gang discusses two papers that have very little in common with each except for the word "stem". The first paper uses birth death models to simulate the fossil record in order investigate if neutral models can produce patterns similar to the "crown"/"stem" evolutionary dynamics that have been observed in real data. The second paper investigates stem mandibulate fossils to investigate the timing of major key innovations in the evolutionary history of this arthropod group. Meanwhile, Amanda decides, James bullies, and Curt explains.   Up-Goer Five (Curt Edition): The friends talk about two papers that have very little to do with each other, other than the fact that they have one of the same words in them. The first paper looks at the ways in which animals change over time and how they make more of each other and how the ways things live and die can make it look like there are some groups that do better than others. The paper shows that some of this is something we should see even if it is just because of how things make more things and the fact that we care more about the things that live today than the things that do not live today. The second paper looks at how animals that have many parts that repeat make their arms and legs. This paper looks at very very old animals from groups that are not around today but maybe could be close to those groups. The group of animals today that this group is close to has a lot of things that all of them share, like that they make mouths from a lot of arms, and also they have things on the front they use to feel things, and that they are three parts. This paper is using these old animals that are close to this group to try and see which things today in this group appeared first, and which things may have taken some time before they appeared.   References: Budd, Graham E., and Richard P.

In this month's Beekeeping Today Podcast Short with Dr. Dewey Caron, he reflects on the many ways communication connects us — from human language to honey bee behavior. Recorded following the Oregon State Beekeepers Association's annual meeting, Dewey explores communication on three levels: between bee scientists and beekeepers, between beekeepers and their bees, and among bees themselves. He compares human verbal, nonverbal, and written communication to the complex systems found in honey bee societies, including the famous waggle dance and the chemical cues that govern colony behavior. Dewey also shares new research from the University of Minnesota, which suggests that the protein vitellogenin may play a role in how colonies prepare to swarm — possibly acting as part of their "language" of reproduction. The discussion underscores how understanding bee communication helps us become better communicators as beekeepers, recognizing the cues our colonies send before swarming begins. As Dewey reminds us, communication is a two-way street: "We need to understand what our bees are saying and better refine what we're asking of them."

In due articoli su Scientific Reports e su Advanced Optical Materials, vengono descritte delle vere e proprie antenne per la luce. L'idea è mettere in comunicazione dei dispositivi senza fibre ottiche, lasciando che gli impulsi di luce che trasportano l'informazione viaggino nell'aria. L'obiettivo è un nuovo sistema di tele-comunicazione, wireless come il wifi, ma con la velocità della fibra. Un filone di ricerca che va avanti da anni, scontrandosi con mille difficoltà tecniche, tra cui quella di allineare il trasmettitore e il ricevitore: infatti, mentre nelle fibre ottiche la luce segue il percorso della fibra, in aria viaggia in linea retta e nulla lo può impedire. Ecco perché l'antenna ottica, sviluppata tra Cnr, Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna, Laboratorio LENS, e le Università di Firenze e Pisa, può rappresentare un concreto passo in avanti. Parliamone con Jacopo Catani, dirigente di ricerca INO CNR.

Esta semana, en Enigmas y Misterios, Álvaro Martín nos lleva de nuevo a uno de esos capítulos en los que ciencia y desconcierto se cruzan. Porque, según un reciente estudio publicado en la revista Scientific Reports, los años más tensos de la Guerra Fría —cuando el mundo caminaba al borde del desastre nuclear— también fueron escenario de una actividad luminosa en el cielo que aún hoy nadie ha logrado explicar.

The ACOG acknowledges that maternal obesity affects labor curves and recommends allowing more time for cervical dilation before diagnosing labor arrest in obese patients. This approach aims to avoid unnecessary interventions, such as premature cesarean delivery, which may occur if standard labor curves are strictly applied to obese women. In this episode, we will review a new study from the AJOG (08 Nov 2025) which describes labor progression and duration according to maternal body mass index, validating the need (possibly) for a BMI -based labor curve. Has there been advocates of a BMI-based labor curve? Listen in for details.1. Edwards, Sara et al. Characterizing Labor Progression and Duration According to Maternal Body Mass Index.

Miranda Hack provides an in-depth look at the often-overlooked engineering and logistical barriers to large-scale deployment of solid particles for stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI). She explains how dispersing sub-micron mineral particles at altitude, including challenges like agglomeration, complex nozzle flows, and supply-chain constraints, introduces significant uncertainties and costs. These challenges may reduce cooling efficiency and narrow the design space for “low-risk” SAI strategies, suggesting that solid aerosols could be far less viable than existing models assume.Paper: Hack, M., McNeill, V.

A new peer-reviewed study published in Scientific Reports shows that from 1988 to 2018, most parts of India have seen a steady decline in sunshine hours or the number of hours per day when sunlight is bright enough to be measured as sunshine.

The scientific report on the effects of media coverage on prospective jurors in Latah County examined the impact of pretrial publicity on the jury pool for the Bryan Kohberger case. Kohberger, accused of murdering four University of Idaho students, has been the subject of extensive media coverage, which has raised concerns about the potential bias among jurors.Key points from the report include:Media Influence: The report highlighted how pervasive media coverage can shape public perception, often leading to preconceived notions of guilt or innocence. This is particularly problematic in high-profile cases like Kohberger's, where intense media scrutiny can taint the jury pool.Survey Findings: A survey conducted by a trial consultant on behalf of the defense indicated that the more someone knew about the case, the more likely they were to believe Kohberger was guilty. This survey included questions that incorporated both true and false information to gauge the extent of misinformation and its effect on potential jurors.Pretrial Publicity: The report underscores the difficulty of finding unbiased jurors in Latah County due to the saturation of media coverage. It suggests that prospective jurors exposed to extensive pretrial information are more likely to have formed opinions about the case.Defense Strategy: The defense team used the survey data to argue for a change of venue, claiming that an impartial trial would be difficult to achieve in Latah County. They contended that the media coverage had created a presumptive bias against Kohberger, necessitating the trial to be moved to a different location to ensure fairness.Judicial Response: The court acknowledged the potential impact of media coverage on jurors and temporarily halted the survey to review its methodology and ensure compliance with non-dissemination orders. The defense argued that continuing the survey in other counties was crucial for a comparative analysis to determine an appropriate venue for the trial.These findings reflect the complex interplay between media coverage and the judicial process, emphasizing the need for careful consideration to maintain the integrity of the legal proceedings​.(commercial at 7:41)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protomail.comsource:072224-Memorandum-Support-MCoV.pdf

The gang discusses two papers that provide nuanced information to test when key innovations in vertebrate evolution occurred. The first paper looks at unique semi-terrestrial trace fossils in the early Devonian in order to determine the trace maker, and the second paper looks at fossils that could provide information about the origins of teeth. Meanwhile, Curt has theme park ambitions, James provides Amanda with new anxieties, and Amanda leaves it all to chance.   Up-Goer Five (James Edition): The group talk about two papers that are looking at the earliest time things have been seen in the rocks. The first paper looks at some tracks in the rock left by animals with no legs that live in the water but can gasp air. We have looked at tracks from the same place before where the animals stuck their faces into the ground. The new tracks come in two forms. The first is where the animal took a rest and its bits that it uses to move in the water stuck in the ground. The other track is where it had to come out of the water and moved around on land. It used its head to pull it along as it moved. The track made by this is the same as tracks made by the same type of animal that still lives today. This is the oldest case of this type of animal moving on land and shows that animals with hard parts inside them began to move onto land in lots of different ways. The other paper looks at the supposed earliest time we find teeth growing on skin. This is interesting because there are several ideas about why the teeth began to grow on the skin, so when it first started could help tell which of these reasons is true. The skin teeth bit has been considered the same as an animal with no legs that lived in the water that was found in younger rocks from a different place, but when studied up close it does not look like the thing it is named as. By using lights to look inside the rock and seeing whether it looks the same as skin teeth on living animals it is shown that the old skin teeth are not skin teeth at all but actually are parts of the skin of a different animal with no hard parts inside that has legs that move in many places.   References: Haridy, Yara, et al.

Chaque matin, près de 8 adultes sur 10 dans le monde consomment une boisson caféinée. Mais derrière ce geste devenu un rituel universel, la science commence à dévoiler un phénomène fascinant : le café du matin ne se contente pas de réveiller, il rend aussi plus heureux.La preuve par les étudesUne étude conjointe des universités de Bielefeld (Allemagne) et Warwick (Royaume-Uni) a suivi plus de 230 jeunes adultes dans leur quotidien. Grâce à une application, les participants notaient leur humeur plusieurs fois par jour, en précisant s'ils avaient bu du café dans les 90 minutes précédentes. Résultat : les émotions positives — enthousiasme, sentiment de bien-être, motivation — étaient significativement renforcées après la consommation de café. L'effet était particulièrement marqué dans les deux heures et demie suivant le réveil, puis s'atténuait, pour réapparaître plus faiblement en fin de journée.La biologie du bonheurPourquoi le café agit-il plus fortement le matin ? La réponse tient à notre chronobiologie. Pendant la nuit, une molécule appelée adénosine s'accumule dans le cerveau et ralentit l'activité neuronale, favorisant le sommeil. Or la caféine bloque ces récepteurs à l'adénosine, ce qui provoque une libération accrue de dopamine et de noradrénaline, des neurotransmetteurs associés à l'éveil, à la vigilance et… au plaisir. Après une nuit sans caféine, l'effet est donc maximal : c'est pourquoi la première tasse a un impact émotionnel bien plus fort que celle de l'après-midi.Plus qu'un effet de sevrageCertains chercheurs avaient suggéré que l'amélioration d'humeur ne serait que le simple soulagement des symptômes du manque de caféine. Mais l'étude publiée dans Scientific Reports a montré que même les personnes consommant peu de café ressentaient une hausse du bien-être. Cela signifie que l'effet n'est pas seulement un « retour à la normale », mais bien un véritable coup de pouce positif pour le cerveau.L'impact psychologique et socialIl existe aussi une dimension psychologique. L'anticipation même de ce moment de réconfort crée un effet placebo qui renforce l'action de la caféine. Cependant, les chercheurs ont observé que l'effet positif était moins marqué en présence d'autres personnes. Pourquoi ? Parce que la stimulation sociale agit déjà comme un booster émotionnel, réduisant la marge d'impact du café. À l'inverse, lorsque les participants étaient plus fatigués que d'habitude, la caféine produisait un gain d'humeur encore plus net.Un allié… avec des limitesLes scientifiques rappellent toutefois que ces bienfaits concernent une consommation modérée, surtout le matin. En fin de journée, le café peut perturber le sommeil, et un excès entraîne parfois irritabilité ou dépendance. Mais pris au bon moment, il agit comme un catalyseur de bonne humeur, confirmant ce que des milliards de personnes pressentaient déjà : le café du matin est bien plus qu'une boisson, c'est un vrai levier biologique pour démarrer la journée du bon pied.

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor, and Mark Wright break down five eye-opening research studies from 2025 that challenge everything you thought you knew about obesity, dieting, and metabolism. The hosts explore surprising new evidence on fitness trackers, the metabolic power of joy (and dessert!), the risks of intermittent fasting, how yo-yo dieting can damage kidney health, and the permanent impact of dieting on your brain-gut connection.Dr. Cooper shares clinical insights and explains why simple fixes—strict diets, calorie counting, and food restriction—can actually backfire, causing more harm than good. From the science of hormone signaling to the pitfalls of diet culture, the conversation reveals powerful new reasons to embrace flexibility, balance, and self-kindness on the journey to metabolic health.Key Takeaways:Fitness trackers can dramatically underestimate calorie burn—errors can reach 93%, especially for people with higher body weight. Companies rarely test enough real-world diversity and may fudge numbers for marketing.Including dessert and “forbidden foods” in your diet leads to better metabolic outcomes, greater mental stability, and less risk of binge eating or weight regain. Joyful eating helps regulate critical hormones like leptin and ghrelin.Intermittent fasting is linked to hair loss. Energy deficits force the body to use fatty acids as fuel, which can damage hair follicle stem cells. Long-term fasting negatively disrupts glucose/insulin balance and destabilizes metabolism.Yo-yo dieting (weight cycling) now shows a direct connection with kidney damage—even in those at normal weight. Rapid weight shifts restrict kidney blood flow, raise cortisol, and cause irreversible damage.Dieting creates lasting changes in the microbiome and brain-gut signaling that promote weight regain and appetite dysregulation. Even a single round of weight cycling can create stubborn metabolic obstacles.Personal Stories & Practical Advice:Andrea shares why dessert is a staple of her happiness—and how mental restriction backfires. Dr. Cooper gives real-world examples from patients: eating favorite foods can unlock better weight results, while “diet damage” often lingers until medical treatment repairs it. Resources from the episode:Fat Science is a podcast on a mission to explain where our fat really comes from and why it won't go and stay away.

In this BTP Short, Dr. Dewey Caron shares another of his “audio postcards,” this time exploring the critical role of fat bees—also known as diutinus bees—in helping colonies survive winter. Dewey explains how these long-lived worker bees differ from their summer sisters, with enlarged fat bodies, higher protein reserves, and lower juvenile hormone levels, all tied to the key blood protein vitellogenin. Drawing on published research papers, Dewey highlights how environmental cues such as declining pollen, temperature, and daylight trigger the production of winter bees, and how clustering helps colonies thermoregulate through the cold months. He emphasizes that strong, heavy colonies going into winter are far more likely to survive than weak or light ones. For beekeepers, Dewey stresses the importance of continuous Varroa control throughout the season, fall feeding to ensure sufficient carbohydrate and protein stores, and combining weaker units when necessary. He also discusses drone eviction, stock influences, and climate change modeling that suggests warmer falls may disrupt the balance of winter bee production and survival. This episode provides science-based insights and practical recommendations to help beekeepers communicate with their colonies—ensuring not only fat bees, but fat, well-prepared colonies for overwintering success.

Un grupo de científicos ha desenterrado unas huellas fosilizadas que adelantan en al menos 10 millones de años la primera migración de peces fuera del agua, reescribiendo el guión de cómo y cuándo los vertebrados empezaron a conquistar la superficie terrestre.La noticia, publicada en la revista Scientific Reports, es de esas que obligan a los paleontólogos a frotarse los ojos dos veces. Christian Klug, un reputado paleontólogo de la Universidad de Zúrich, lo confiesa sin tapujos: "Al principio, no quería creerlo". Pero tras analizar los nuevos datos y visitar personalmente el yacimiento, se rindió a la evidencia: Un pez, incluso sin patas, se atrevió a dar el primer paso fuera del agua.

A new JAMA study found that 84% of abortion prescriptions from Aid Access went to patients in states with bans, enabled by “shield laws” protecting telehealth providers across state lines. Provision rates were highest in underserved Southern and Midwestern counties, highlighting telemedicine's role in maintaining access. A Scientific Reports study showed that large language models for clinical use can be manipulated into giving unsafe answers through subtle “adversarial hallucination attacks,” with success rates over 95%. Finally, JAMA Ophthalmology reported GLP-1 agonists may slightly increase risk of sudden vision loss, though benefits still outweigh risks.

A study from Johns Hopkins researchers found that residents near or on the fence line of polluting enterprises are at higher risk for multiple health problems because of the toxic mix of air they breathe. The lead researcher explains the study. Also, astronomer Phil Plait wondered what it would be like to walk on Mars, fall into a black hole, or fly through a nebula, so he wrote a book, Under Alien Skies: A Sightseer's Guide to the Universe. He reveals the strange colors of a sunset on Mars, what it's like on a planet orbiting binary stars, the unique challenges of landing on an asteroid, and more. And a paper published in the journal Scientific Reports describes the case study of an orangutan who treated and healed his own wound. Zoologists have long seen behaviors of self-medicating in the animal kingdom, but until now it has rarely if ever been documented in scientific literature. — We rely on support from listeners like you to keep our journalism strong.

Surnommé le “continent plastique” ou encore le “monstre de plastique”, le 7ème continent est une masse en expansion constituée de 1 800 milliards de déchets plastiques en plein océan Pacifique. En effet, selon l'étude de l'organisation Ocean Cleanup publiée en 2018 dans la revue Scientific Reports, le "septième continent" s'étend sur 1,6 million de km², soit 3 fois la taille de la France. Comment le 7ème continent s'est-il formé ? Quel est son réel impact sur l'environnement ? Est-il éternel ? Ecoutez la suite de cet épisode de "Maintenant vous savez".

The scientific report on the effects of media coverage on prospective jurors in Latah County examined the impact of pretrial publicity on the jury pool for the Bryan Kohberger case. Kohberger, accused of murdering four University of Idaho students, has been the subject of extensive media coverage, which has raised concerns about the potential bias among jurors.Key points from the report include:Media Influence: The report highlighted how pervasive media coverage can shape public perception, often leading to preconceived notions of guilt or innocence. This is particularly problematic in high-profile cases like Kohberger's, where intense media scrutiny can taint the jury pool.Survey Findings: A survey conducted by a trial consultant on behalf of the defense indicated that the more someone knew about the case, the more likely they were to believe Kohberger was guilty. This survey included questions that incorporated both true and false information to gauge the extent of misinformation and its effect on potential jurors.Pretrial Publicity: The report underscores the difficulty of finding unbiased jurors in Latah County due to the saturation of media coverage. It suggests that prospective jurors exposed to extensive pretrial information are more likely to have formed opinions about the case.Defense Strategy: The defense team used the survey data to argue for a change of venue, claiming that an impartial trial would be difficult to achieve in Latah County. They contended that the media coverage had created a presumptive bias against Kohberger, necessitating the trial to be moved to a different location to ensure fairness.Judicial Response: The court acknowledged the potential impact of media coverage on jurors and temporarily halted the survey to review its methodology and ensure compliance with non-dissemination orders. The defense argued that continuing the survey in other counties was crucial for a comparative analysis to determine an appropriate venue for the trial.These findings reflect the complex interplay between media coverage and the judicial process, emphasizing the need for careful consideration to maintain the integrity of the legal proceedings​.(commercial at 7:41)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protomail.comsource:072224-Memorandum-Support-MCoV.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

What is sarcopenia and why is this such an important topic for every woman over 40?  That is the topic of conversation today.  What is Sarcopoenia? Sarcopenia is to muscle what osteoporosis is to bone.  Significant loss of skeletal muscle mass and or muscle strength. Sarcopenia is tied to anabolic resistance in midlife women, making it harder to gain lean muscle growth or maintenance after 40. Older adults - both men and women - have to work harder to gain lean muscle mass.  Women have less overall body mass and muscle to begin with and more dramatic reductions in estrogen at menopause, than men experience loss of testosterone.  The key stimulus for muscle protein synthesis, will suffer more from loss of strength and mass if they aren't carefully offsetting it with planned and progressive resistance training.  For women, estrogen protects muscle and bone. We need and use testosterone which is the most abundant hormone in the female body - but it's the decline in estrogen that makes the difference in muscle preservation. What Contributes to Sarcopenia?  Malnutrition. Combined with sarcopenia, it's a predictor of all-cause mortality than sarcopenia alone.  The United States is one of the most overfed and undernourished countries in the world. We're not eating well enough to sustain health.  Sarcopenia is 100% avoidable.  How Do You Measure Sarcopenia? Strength Fat free mass and height Online calculators  There are physical tests or measures that include grip strength or calf circumference.  Women didn't measure or track their skeletal muscle mass decades ago to know where it was at peak. It's harder to say how much mass or strength you've lost.  The Surprising Statistics on What is Sarcopenia On average, muscle loss occurs 3-8% each decade starting at 30. That CAN accelerate during menopause transition. It isn't associated with loss of estrogen driving skeletal muscle protein synthesis down. It's the side effects of the decline of estrogen.  Not sleeping. Struggle exercising as hard or as long  Less support for your muscle from testosterone and growth hormone  Have cortisol, ghrelin and leptin hormone dysregulation that interferes with muscle and fat. We do have the ability to regain lean muscle.  It's proven (and shared in prior episodes) that 85+ individuals can gain both mass and strength.  Available Sarcopenia Assessments: SARC-F  A simple questionnaire that is a good point of reference but an easy assessment if you're active.  How it works: Includes 5 components with scale scores range from 0 to 10: Strength: How much difficulty do you have in lifting and carrying 10 pounds? Assistance in walking: How much difficulty do you have walking across a room, whether you use aids or need help to do this? Rise from a chair: How much difficulty do you have transferring from a chair or bed, whether you use aids or need help to do this? Climb stairs: How much difficulty do you have climbing a flight of 10 stairs? Falls: How many times have you fallen in the past year?

Start where you are by benchmarking it and learn how to improve it. How is Sarcopenia Diagnosed? Fat-Free Mass Index: FFMI ≤ 15 kg/m2 Visit this URL to calculate (turn on metric to see result): https://ffmicalculator.org/ A strength test. What is Sarcopenia: The New Glossary Osteosarcopenia - low bone mass and low muscle mass Sarcobesity - low muscle mass and high fat mass Osteosarcobesity - low bone mass, low muscle mass and high fat mass  Osteobesity - low bone mass and high fat mass    The biggest risk of sarcopenia is falling due to instability and inability to “right” yourself when slips and falls occur. I promised we'd visit what's possible so here that is: A 1.9-3.3% increase in global muscle mass in humans is associated with a 4.1% to 5.8% lower fat mass and reduced A1c and fasting glucose in studies lasting 2 weeks to 3 years.   How to Avoid Sarcopenia? Resistance train 2x per week minimum, for some that's maximum. Know your recovery needs. Consume high protein foods and micronutrient dense foods at each meal.   Wouldn't it be wonderful if in 30 or 40 years, “What is sarcopenia?” is a question like “What is scurvy or rickets?” now which is never heard of. That starts with us.    References:  Nutrients. 2023, PMID: 38201856. Sports Medicine, 2025, PMID: 40576707. Advances in Nutrition 2025, PMID: 40222723. Scientific Reports, 2025, PMID: 39833326.
