Battling a rare brain-eating disease in an Indian state
DELHI — On the eve of Onam, the most joyous festival in India's Kerala state, 45-year-old Sobhana lay shivering in the back of an ambulance, drifting into unconsciousness as her family rushed her to a medical college hospital.Just days earlier, the Dalit (formerly known as untouchables) woman, who earned her living bottling fruit juices in a village in Malappuram district, had complained of nothing more alarming than dizziness and high blood pressure. Doctors prescribed pills and sent her home. But her condition spiralled with terrifying speed: uneasiness gave way to fever, fever to violent shivers, and on 5 September — the main day of the festival — Sobhana was dead.The culprit was Naegleria fowleri — commonly known as the brain-eating amoeba — an infection usually...

NASA’s Perseverance rover discovered leopard spots on a reddish rock nicknamed Cheyava Falls in Mars’ Jezero Crater in July 2024
Rock discovery contains ‘clearest sign’ yet of ancient life on Mars, NASA says
WASHINGTON — Scientists believe intriguing leopard spots on a rock sampled by the Perseverance rover on Mars last year may have potentially been made by ancient life, NASA announced Wednesday. The team has also published a peer-reviewed paper in the journal Nature about the new analysis, though they say further study is needed.“After a year of review, they have come back and they said, listen, we can’t find another explanation,” said Acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy. “So this very well could be the clearest sign of life that we’ve ever found on Mars, which is incredibly exciting.”The sample, called Sapphire Canyon, was collected by the Perseverance rover from rocky outcrops on the edges of the Neretva Vallis river valley, a region sculpted by water that once flowed into...

Global warming may increase sugar consumption in the US in the form of sweetened drinks, ice creams and frozen desserts, according to new research
Scientists find a surprising reason why people are eating more sugar
WASHINGTON – Ice creams, frozen desserts and super-chilled sodas take on a new appeal in sticky summer heat. As climate change drives hotter temperatures, Americans are consuming more and more of them, new research finds, with worrying health consequences.There is plenty of evidence climate change will shape food availability and quality, leading to shortages, price increases and even affecting nutritional value, said Pan He, a study author and a lecturer in environmental science and sustainability at Cardiff University. But far less is known about its effects on what we choose to eat and drink, she told CNN.The researchers scoured US household food purchasing data between 2004 to 2019 allowing them to track the same families over a long time. They then compared purchasing decisions with...

Mary Roy won a landmark Supreme Court case securing inheritance rights for Christian women
'My mother was my shelter and storm': Arundhati Roy on her fierce new memoir
DELHI — "Someone once asked me what my mother's greatest legacy to me was," Arundhati Roy said at a private gathering in the Indian capital, Delhi, recently. "I said an overactive middle finger."That crack — sharp, irreverent, wickedly funny — is the perfect way into the Booker Prize-winning author and activist's new memoir, Mother Mary Comes to Me. It is the story of Mary Roy, her formidable, mercurial mother: feminist icon, educator, crusader, eccentric, bully, inspiration. A woman who, as her daughter writes, was "my shelter and my storm".Arundhati Roy was an architect, actor, screenwriter and production designer before turning novelist. Her debut The God of Small Things — a childhood-inspired family saga — won the 1997 Booker. It was...

Going to space could speed up biological ageing, NASA study finds
HOUSTON — Going to space could speed up biological ageing, according to new research that tracked changes to human stem cells during four missions in space.The study, which was supported by the American space agency NASA, found that blood cells that were sent to space lost some of their ability to make healthy new cells and started showing genetic damage, both signs of accelerated ageing.“Space is the ultimate stress test for the human body,” said Dr Catriona Jamieson, one of the study’s authors and director of the Sanford Stem Cell Institute at the University of California San Diego in the United States.Jamieson’s team used artificial intelligence (AI)-powered imaging tools to track real-time changes to cultured human cells that were sent on four SpaceX missions to the...

The baby had a bloated stomach and was unable to consume food
Indian doctors remove parasitic foetuses from baby's stomach
MUMBAI – Indian doctors have successfully removed "parasitic twins" or two foetuses that were growing inside the abdomen of a 20-day-old baby.Called foetus in foetu, the condition is extremely rare, with fewer than 200 cases being reported worldwide until now, a handful of them from India.The condition develops early in pregnancy where a malformed foetus is absorbed by the host twin. Though the foetus isn't alive, it continues to develop by absorbing nutrients from the host twin – hence the name "parasitic twin".In this case, the woman was pregnant with triplets and two of the foetuses began to grow inside the abdomen of the baby."The surgery was challenging but the baby is healthy and doing well," Dr Anand Sinha, a paediatric surgeon who led the...
