This mismatch disrupts sleep, concentration, and overall performance because the brain's master clock relies on sunlight cues. Traveling east is often trickier as people naturally lean towards delaying their sleep cycle. To help, experts recommend using natural light strategically, exercising during the day, and eating on the destination's schedule. Proper sleep hygiene and timing light exposure are key to mitigating these travel side effects. 😴 https://memews.com/news/sc-clears-man-wrongly-jailed-for-22-years-cmsh9cib3ht196l86a 2026-08-05T23:48:00.000Z 0.6 https://static.toiimg.com/thumb/msid-132977970,width-1280,height-720,resizemode-6,overlay-toi_sw,pt-32,y_pad-600/photo.jpg SC clears man wrongly jailed for 22 years The Supreme Court has acquitted a man who was wrongly convicted in a triple murder case.

This condition results from a single letter change stopping myostatin production, which normally limits muscle growth in vertebrates. While early drugs failed, a Phase 2 trial in June 2026 showed apitegromab helped retain lean mass with tirzepatide. This gene's mechanism is now being explored to protect muscle tissue during weight loss.

This process, first detailed in a May 2026 Science study, was shown to be crucial for their survival in the boundary layer. While this system helps, warmer water reduces oxygen, forcing corals to beat their cilia faster. Above a certain temperature, this frantic movement actually depletes the available oxygen, leading to suffocation.

Sporting director Deco and head coach Hansi Flick feel the midfield already has sufficient quality and depth in the current squad. The club is unwilling to spend around €70 million on a midfielder while focusing on other priority positions. Furthermore, there is a strong expectation that Real Madrid would be Rodri's preferred destination if he leaves Manchester City. Therefore, Barcelona does not plan to enter into a bidding war for the Spanish international. https://memews.com/news/amazon-s-great-freedom-sale-brings-big-smartphone-discounts-cmsga6xf4ld1bla4p9 2026-08-05T13:49:03.000Z 0.6 https://i.gadgets360cdn.com/large/2_1774201696562.jpg Amazon's Great Freedom Sale brings big smartphone discounts The Amazon Great Freedom Sale 2026 is set to kick off on August 7th, giving Prime members early access for 12 hours.

The research tracked over 1,000 patients across 12,583 outpatient visits at a South Korean medical centre from 2021 to 2024. PM2.5 was significantly associated with higher Disease Activity Score (DAS28) and flare risk, especially in women and nonsmokers. Prolonged cumulative PM2.5 exposure over more than two weeks also increased the risk of a flare. Researchers advise RA patients to avoid prolonged exposure to poor air quality to potentially lower disease risk. 💨 https://memews.com/news/stretching-tennis-ball-helps-plantar-fasciitis-cmsg7m2i7h910kpxfv 2026-08-05T13:11:42.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/uganda-s-ebola-control-success-story-cmsit1rjf4m2vhomf 2026-08-05T13:10:20.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/old-sql-flaw-used-for-major-database-hack-cmsgju73dum10t7szh 2026-08-05T13:10:08.000Z 0.6 https://www.itsecurityguru.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/Huntress-Oracle.png Old SQL flaw used for major database hack Hackers managed to smuggle a custom toolkit into an Oracle database using a classic SQL injection flaw.

This initiative is being rolled out in New Delhi to boost financial oversight and improve rural scheme execution. The system will assess factors like fund utilization and compliance across states, including Viksit Bharat–Guarantee for Rozgar. This shifts audits from mere compliance checks to a risk-based management system for better governance.

FIRs are being registered against demonstrators for using allegedly abusive language after protests at Jantar Mantar. The case, filed in Uttar Pradesh, invokes Sections 352, 353(1), and 356(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). The BNS does not criminalize abusive language as a standalone offence; its criminality depends on context and consequences. Courts rule that police cannot automatically file FIRs for offensive speech, only where there is incitement to violence. Therefore, mere vulgarity isn't obscenity, and free speech must be protected. ⚖️ https://memews.com/news/royals-aiming-to-avoid-harry-s-royal-drama-cmsfzv9864q1jg2fgx 2026-08-05T11:12:38.000Z 0.6 https://www.livemint.com/lm-img/img/2026/08/05/1600x900/logo/BRITAIN-CGAMES-2026-ROYALS-1_1785927939434_1785927955819_db1d805b-ff53-43c8-a2e3-4bf032020d78.jpg Royals aiming to avoid Harry's royal drama Royal family author Simon Vigar suggests Prince William and Princess Kate are discussing their younger children's royal futures.

Researchers examined over 10,000 full-night sleep studies to link patterns with long-term medical outcomes. The AI identified five distinct patient subtypes with sharply varied health risks, detailed in Nature. For instance, the highest-risk group had twice the odds of death in five years compared to the lowest-risk group. This shows AI can move beyond summary measures to learn from the full richness of sleep physiology. 🩺 https://memews.com/news/claude-code-slashes-3d-printing-time-by-50-cmshv7n7xdh16bpjei 2026-08-05T11:00:13.000Z 0.6 https://static0.makeuseofimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/wm/2026/06/claude-code-terminal-and-desktop-running-on-windows-11-laptop-1.JPG?w=1600&h=900&fit=crop Claude Code slashes 3D printing time by 50% A computer science graduate replaced his CAD software with Claude Code for 3D part design.

These formidable predators actively change their behavior to avoid humans, which is why lightning strikes are statistically more common. Brown bears attack about 11.4 humans annually, while mountain lions strike only 4 to 6 people per year. Studies showed bears flee human voices almost ten times more often than gull calls, and mountain lions proactively avoid high-traffic areas. This suggests carnivores perceive humans as a significant threat, requiring humans to adjust behaviors for coexistence. 🐻 https://memews.com/news/allergy-free-pups-are-here-thanks-to-gene-editing-cmsg8f26uii84ksq1 2026-08-05T11:00:00.000Z 0.6 https://media.wired.com/photos/6a71e23ecfc2e97a4cf7bf58/191:100/w_1280,c_limit/Alfie%20and%20Bailey%201.jpg Allergy-free pups are here thanks to gene editing Scientists successfully created two beagle puppies, Bailey and Alfie, by using Crispr gene editing to remove the Can f 1 protein.

It is important today because broad knowledge helps adaptability, while expertise allows for significant impact. The quote also highlights values like lifelong learning and intellectual humility.

Engineers installed a mechanical fish lift and an eel ladder, known as an 'eel elevator', to help fish bypass the Milford Dam safely. This restoration led to the return of millions of river herring and thousands of American shad to their upstream habitats. The recovering fish populations attracted humpback whales to the river mouth for feeding, as documented by NOAA.

Researchers found this links systemic nutrition to immune surveillance, specifically in colorectal cancer models and respiratory viruses. When arginine is low, cancer cells and viruses evade detection, allowing unchecked growth and increased sickness. Restoring optimal nutrition successfully rescued antigen presentation, suppressed tumors, and reduced tissue damage. Future trials are needed to confirm if this dietary approach can help patients with low arginine levels. https://memews.com/news/ice-age-toad-found-in-la-brea-tar-pits-cmsfs2xcauw1377u8l 2026-08-05T07:00:26.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/solar-eclipse-myths-busted-what-science-says-cmsfyjulu361r4i54s 2026-08-05T07:00:00.000Z 0.6 https://imageio.forbes.com/specials-images/imageserve/6a5d0257f96aff0f703990ac/0x0.jpg?format=jpg&crop=3635,2046,x132,y503,safe&height=900&width=1600&fit=bounds Solar eclipse myths busted: what science says Several misconceptions surround total solar eclipses, despite scientific knowledge.

This event, TDE 2025abcr, was spotted in WISEA J014656.04-152214.7 on July 27th. Astronomers confirmed it was a Tidal Disruption Event, not a supernova or AGN flare, after extensive spectral analysis. The flare peaked on November 14, 2025, reaching an apparent g-band magnitude of 18.9. Future observations will help pin down the black hole's exact mass and dynamics. 🌌 https://memews.com/news/insect-eating-plant-proves-darwin-right-after-150-years-cmsfq2mtmogu7ecil 2026-08-05T05:59:00.000Z 0.6 https://static.toiimg.com/thumb/msid-132895378,width-1280,height-720,resizemode-6,overlay-toi_sw,pt-32,y_pad-600/photo.jpg Insect-eating plant proves Darwin right after 150 years Scientists confirmed Charles Darwin's old theory about carnivorous Saxifraga species in a major breakthrough. The research focused on Saxifraga candelabrum growing in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and Hengduan Mountains. In 2024, studies showed the plants lure gnats with scents and digest them using phosphatase. This validates Darwin's 1875 suspicion about insect consumption in these mountainous regions.

Yes, a registered rent agreement can be modified legally with mutual consent from both the landlord and the tenant. Section 62 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872, allows parties to alter or substitute a new contract if they agree. Minor changes can be recorded via a written addendum, which both parties must sign and register. Major changes, like tenancy period alterations, usually require drafting a fresh rent agreement. Written agreements offer stability but allow for future changes through mutual consent. 📄 https://memews.com/news/inquiry-launched-after-kerala-prosecutor-s-death-cmsfnwk0tly4343uy 2026-08-05T05:28:57.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/high-temp-bec-unlocked-in-thin-semiconductor-cmsfu4m3txdr1n61r 2026-08-05T05:28:00.000Z 0.6 https://www.azoquantum.com/images/news/ThumbForNews_11212_178590749030014.jpg High-temp BEC unlocked in thin semiconductor Researchers have successfully observed a tunable Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) of excitons at a high temperature within an atomically thin semiconductor.

The Bench observed that telling victims to adjust can actually embolden the perpetrators and lead to tragic outcomes. This observation came while dealing with a 2011 dowry death case involving Meena Devi and her 15-month-old daughter. The victims repeatedly reported harassment over dowry demands, which should have been treated as cries for help.

Dr Kiran S. Coelho stated that this transition, usually between 45 and 55 years, raises risks for heart disease and osteoporosis. Estrogen decline leads to rising bad cholesterol, decreased bone density, and increased insulin resistance.

This unsustainable demand is evident in places like the Mekong Delta in Vietnam, where extraction is 11.8 times the replacement rate. Between 2015 and 2022, 366 million cubic meters of sand was pulled from the Mekong, causing riverbed incision. This sediment loss leads to severe issues like riverbank erosion and saltwater intrusion in the region. Experts warn that if this continues, the Vietnamese Mekong will run out of sand by 2035. 😥 https://memews.com/news/europe-s-african-border-clash-in-ceuta-and-melilla-cmsfn6sv9li1uozamt 2026-08-05T01:21:16.000Z 0.6 https://www.aljazeera.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/2026-08-01T064529Z_78665281_RC2IPMAWYYRE_RTRMADP_3_MIGRATION-EUROPE-SPAIN-CEUTA-1785771482.jpg?resize=1920%2C1440 Europe's African border clash in Ceuta and Melilla Thousands of migrants entered the Spanish city of Ceuta from Morocco on July 31, highlighting a sensitive European border issue.

This bungalow, built in the late 1800s, was the former residence of Sir S. Subramania Iyer. He was a pivotal figure in Indian law, serving as the first Indian Chief Justice of the High Court. The demolition highlights the loss of intangible history despite official heritage lists.

This depletion is occurring in the sixth month of the conflict, which began on February 28. The US has also used less than half of its global Tomahawk cruise missiles since the war started. Due to diminishing high-tech resources, military leaders might resort to riskier bombing missions if escalation happens.

The findings suggest the need for early screening of psychiatric comorbidities in patients. https://memews.com/news/big-pituitary-tumor-links-to-hormone-drops-post-surgery-cmsfxil001yw704h1 2026-08-05T00:00:00.000Z 0.6 https://img.medscapestatic.com/vim/live/professional_assets/medscape/images/thumbnail_library/gty-260521-pituitary-gland-800x450.jpg Big pituitary tumor links to hormone drops post-surgery 🏥 Approximately one in six patients developed new or worsening hormonal deficits after pituitary adenoma surgery. The study, led by Daniel Ameen, analyzed 2350 patients across several countries between 2015 and 2022. Patients with significantly larger baseline tumor volumes showed a strong link to these postoperative endocrine issues. Gross total resection was shown to reduce the risk compared to subtotal resection in these cases. This suggests monitoring tumor growth could help limit hormonal compromise risk. https://memews.com/news/blood-test-could-skip-chemo-for-some-breast-cancer-patients-cmsfwfvspy1b3z8c 2026-08-05T00:00:00.000Z 0.6 https://www.newswise.com/images/uploads/2026/08/04/6a724fc7b333a_AndrewGodwinPREFERRED.jpg Blood test could skip chemo for some breast cancer patients Researchers identified a blood biomarker that might let hormone receptor-positive breast cancer patients skip chemo. The study involved 1,556 women under 55 at The University of Kansas Cancer Center and Emory University. Findings showed low anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels meant no benefit from chemotherapy for many. This offers a more biologically meaningful way to assess ovarian reserve than age or menopausal status. Future trials are needed, but this points toward personalized cancer treatment. 🔬 https://memews.com/news/glp-1-drugs-won-t-replace-bariatric-surgery-experts-say-cmsfuby71xl1mbod3f 2026-08-05T00:00:00.000Z 0.6 https://img.medscapestatic.com/vim/live/professional_assets/dt-sp-260305-glp-1-discussion-800x450.png GLP-1 drugs won't replace bariatric surgery, experts say Specialists at the International Congress on Obesity 2026 in Mexico City stressed that GLP-1 drugs and bariatric surgery should integrate, not replace, each other. Experts noted that both pharmacotherapy and surgery have limitations, requiring a patient-centered care model for better outcomes. Official guidelines combining these therapies were first published in 2024 by IFSO. While drugs help in earlier stages, surgery offers greater weight loss magnitude for extreme obesity. The future points towards a combined approach, starting minimally invasive and escalating as needed. 🩺 https://memews.com/news/spacex-and-hormuz-global-market-watch-cmsfs2z4aux17j91a8 2026-08-05T00:00:00.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/heart-health-during-cancer-treatment-gets-a-major-look-cmsfr34bmpe1m7c30 2026-08-05T00:00:00.000Z 0.6 https://img.medscapestatic.com/vim/live/professional_assets/medscape/images/thumbnail_library/dt-260707-doctor-radiologist-800x450.jpg Heart health during cancer treatment gets a major look Cardiotoxicity is a big issue because heart complications can mess up cancer therapy completion. Researchers conducted a meta-analysis to see how heart failure therapies protect heart function in cancer patients. The analysis included 49 studies involving 6998 patients, examining drug classes like RAAS inhibitors and beta-blockers. RAAS inhibitors showed a 2.88% LVEF improvement, and the RAAS/beta-blocker combo improved it by 2.98%. Further randomized trials are needed to better understand newer cardiovascular treatments in cardio-oncology. 🩺 https://memews.com/news/cm-opens-new-health-and-college-facilities-in-tamil-nadu-cmsfbxn3cda1bmlk3m 2026-08-05T00:00:00.000Z 0.6 https://th-i.thgim.com/public/news/national/tamil-nadu/opau8m/article71305694.ece/alternates/LANDSCAPE_1200/centre-17.jpeg CM opens new health and college facilities in Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay virtually inaugurated five new health sub-centres and additional government buildings across Vellore, Tiruvannamalai, and Tirupattur districts on Tuesday. These new facilities replaced old, dilapidated health centres in tribal areas of the district. The construction, funded partly by the 15th Finance Commission, cost an average of ₹45 lakh per health centre. Residents of remote villages, like Nayakkeneri, previously had to trek long distances for basic healthcare services. These new centres will provide essential care, including maternity and immunization, ensuring better local access. 🏥 https://memews.com/news/vit-chennai-revives-tamil-culture-with-science-cmsfbxpvmdb10yxhr4 2026-08-05T00:00:00.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/private-med-colleges-scam-sc-st-scholarship-students-cmsfbxs1adc1osii1b 2026-08-05T00:00:00.000Z 0.6
