A new method for diagnosing diabetes using high-frequency ultrasound and a convolutional neural network was developed. The method is based on the observation that glucose in red blood cells forms glycated hemoglobin and accumulates on its surface. The results confirmed the efficacy of the CNN-based approach with a classification accuracy of 0.98. This non-invasive diagnostic technology holds promise for in vivo diagnosis without the need for blood collection.

Brewing Thoughts: The Link between Daily Coffee Habits and Their Impact on Brain Plasticity and Learning
Discoveries in neuroscience suggest that habitual caffeine intake, prevalent in coffee and tea, may impact the brain’s plasticity. Caffeine, a known adenosine receptor antagonist, influences processes crucial for learning and memory, like long-term potentiation (LTP). Preliminary studies hint that chronic caffeine consumption might reduce LTP-like plasticity in the brain, potentially affecting the effectiveness of treatments […]
