"Every adult can make a difference in the lives of the young people around them Natural mentors -- extended family, neighbors, teachers, or friends -- who are trustworthy and consistent can help youth feel more confident and supported when facing stressful events A recent meta-analysis supports the vital role that caring adults play in kids' education, vocational performance, and emotional health, by fostering positive development and helping kids avoid the risks associated with the tumultuous years of adolescence Youth lacking these relationships can become isolated, and face psychological and emotional problems Teaching our kids ways to recruit natural mentors -- and encouraging adults to more freely share their social resources -- might just transform young lives Levi van Dam. “Does Natural Mentoring Matter?

Does greater energy use reduce undernourishment?
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

Energy access plays a vital role in reducing undernourishment and improving food security. It boosts agricultural productivity, enhances food quality, reduces losses, and enables transportation. However, addressing factors like political instability and poor policies is crucial alongside increasing energy use.

Does more energy use increase life expectancy?
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

Energy use influences life expectancy. Access to energy services improves well-being and extends lifespan, while deprivation has the opposite effect. Modest energy increases positively impact longevity, especially in low-energy regions. However, beyond a certain point, additional energy use has diminishing returns for life expectancy.

Does more energy use increase the level of human development?
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

The Human Development Index (HDI) measures overall well-being beyond economic growth, focusing on health, education, and income. Countries with low development levels use less energy, and small energy increases lead to significant HDI improvements. Energy efficiency improvements can be made without compromising quality of life, addressing environmental concerns and promoting equity.

Does more energy use lead to greater life satisfaction?
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

hile higher incomes generally lead to greater life satisfaction, it's not a guarantee. People in countries with high life satisfaction tend to use more energy, which can enhance comfort and mobility. Modest increases in energy use can significantly improve life satisfaction, but there are diminishing returns at higher levels.

Does more energy use raise incomes?
Unrestricted Use

Rating
0.0 stars

While moving up the income ladder is generally accompanied by increased energy use, there are significant variations within income groups. Factors such as the economy's structure, geography, climate, lifestyle, public policy, and consumer attitudes also influence how effectively energy use translates into income.

Does population growth drive energy use?
Unrestricted Use

Rating
0.0 stars

Population growth does impact energy use, but per capita energy consumption varies greatly across countries due to factors like geography, climate, economic structure, policies, and cultural preferences. Countries with small populations can have high energy consumption, while countries with large populations may use less energy.

The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Although traumatic events in childhood can lead to psychiatric disorders later in life, the biological origins for this relationship aren’t well defined. Overactivation of the immune system has been implicated in a range of psychiatric conditions, including bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and anxiety disorder. Despite this well-known association, the events initially causing this activation remain a mystery. But a team of researchers in the Netherlands has uncovered a potential missing link: they found that traumatic events in childhood can cause inflammation that lasts into adolescence. This association is important because prior work has tied inflammation to the development of mood and anxiety disorders. The researchers surveyed one thousand teenagers affected by childhood trauma at ages 12, 14, 16 and 19. In addition, immune system activation at age 16 was evaluated by measuring high-sensitivity C reactive protein, a tell-tale sign of inflammation in the body..."

The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Parents can do a lot to help kids get back on their feet after ACL surgery, from making sure they get the rest and nutrition they need to ensuring crucial physical therapy appointments are kept. A new study in The American Journal of Sports Medicine suggests a more personal investment might also be important to recovery. Researchers report that parents who donate a hamstring tendon for use as a surgical graft could improve their kids’ outcomes for years. Although hamstring tendon autografts are a common choice for ACL reconstruction, pediatric patients have unique characteristics that complicate this option. Taking a graft from a child still in development may cause persisting hamstring strength deficits and problems with walking and running. It’s also difficult to obtain a graft that’s large enough to prevent reinjury. These issues prompted researchers to take a closer look at how kids fare after ACL reconstruction using a graft donated from a parent..."

Do not enter: TRIM protein prevents white spot syndrome virus from invading crayfish cells

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is the most destructive virus in crustacean aquaculture, causing huge economic losses. Preventing the initial entry of the virus into host cells is likely the most economical way to control WSSV infection. However, the exact mechanism of virus invasion isn’t clear. To learn more, researchers recently investigated how WSSV evades the host immune system in the crayfish Procambrus clarkii. They found that the enzyme TRIM was significantly upregulated in WSSV-infected crayfish. A recombinant TRIM protein inhibited WSSV replication in the crayfish, while blocking TRIM promoted it, suggesting that this enzyme plays a protective role. Further experiments revealed that TRIM interacts with the viral protein VP26. This interaction keeps the host protein AP-1 from entering the nucleus and driving the expression of dynamin. Without dynamin, WSSV can’t enter the host cell via membrane vesicles..."
