HSV-1 and Alzheimer's Disease: A Correlation Study
A study of 340,000 patients over 50 in the US found an 80 percent increased relative risk of Alzheimer's disease among those with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), while antiviral therapy reduced the risk by 17 percent; however, the study does not establish causation.

Unmanageable Sea Level Rise Projected This Century
A new study warns that even if the 1.5C global warming target is met, sea levels will rise unmanageably this century, threatening 230 million people, with England's Fens and Humberside particularly vulnerable unless coastal defenses are strengthened; however, continued use of fossil fuels could lead...

Extinct Megalodon Shark Was an Opportunistic Feeder, Study Finds
A new study using zinc isotope analysis of Otodus megalodon fossils reveals that this extinct giant shark was an opportunistic feeder, consuming a variety of prey, and challenges previous assumptions of a whale-only diet. The research, published in Earth and Planetary Science Letters, used fossils f...

Economic Pressures and Environmental Threats Cause Decline in Saxony-Anhalt Bee Colonies
The number of bee colonies in Saxony-Anhalt decreased by 877 in 2024 to 26,777 due to economic pressure from increased imports of Ukrainian honey, despite a record-high 3,482 beekeepers; climate change and agricultural practices also threaten bee populations and food sources.
