Out of so many mental disorders, a rare disorder is the Fregoli delusion or Fregoli syndrome (FS), in which an individual holds a delusional belief that different people are in fact a single person, who keeps on changing appearances quickly or is in disguise. People affected with this condition often experience anxiety, paranoia, and agitation. It can impact the patient’s mental health and their safety and the safety of others.

The human ear is often described as one of the most sophisticated sensory systems in biology. Within a structure no larger than a seashell, the auditory system can detect frequencies ranging from the faint rumble of distant thunder to the subtle harmonic texture of a violin string

The dark fantasy adventure “Alice in Wonderland” has gained widespread appreciation among audiences. However, the Alice in Wonderland Syndrome (AWS), a brain-related condition, is not something anyone would ever love to experience or witness.

You probably know this story: Aurora, also known as the Sleeping Beauty, was a kind princess who was cursed by an angry fairy and fell into a deep sleep for years. On her sixteenth birthday, she pricked her finger, and the spell came true. Silence covered the land, and the entire kingdom fell asleep with her. Years later, the spell could be broken by a kiss from a prince.

Many physical and computational systems exhibit a familiar behavior: ordered states gradually decay in the presence of noise. Examples appear across science:

Can algorithms predict sickness before you feel it? Explore how AI is using smartwatch data and ECGs to detect diseases like Alzheimer's and AFib early.

In this study, I explore how cancer risk is distributed across the animal kingdom, emphasizing the role of life-history traits, reproductive strategies, and social behavior in shaping susceptibility to disease. Drawing on recent findings in comparative oncology, the article examines patterns that challenge traditional assumptions, such as the relationship between body size and cancer, and highlights evolutionary mechanisms that may confer resistance in certain species.

Learn what dehydration does inside your body from brain function and circulation to temperature control, symptoms, risks, and prevention tips.

Traditionally, Forensic Science relies on Human DNA for contact evidence and individual identification, but limitation arises when the blood cells obtained from the crime scene are degraded or not.

Discover how AI is reshaping radiology, from faster diagnoses to improved accuracy, and what this means for patients and healthcare professionals.

Why is mucus the biggest obstacle to lung drug delivery? Explore the mucosal barrier science reshaping how we design inhaled medicines and vaccines.

A future without transplant waitlists? Tissue engineering blends biology and engineering to build living, functional human tissue.

Many times, individuals feel fearful or extremely worried about cancer testing. The regular tests and scans that patients living with any cancer diagnosis have to undergo, to monitor their condition, can make them feel anxious before, during, or after a scan or a follow-up test

For many people, it is often assumed to be a “Stress disease”. Others casually refer to it as an “Old man’s disease” based on the myth that it affects only the elderly. These assumptions, however banal, are misleading and potentially lethal.

As a pharmacist during clinical clerking, I frequently encounter patients who use the term “toilet infections” to describe symptoms that clinically align with bacterial vaginosis, urinary tract infections, or yeast infections. This widespread misconception often stems from the assumption that symptoms occurring after the use of public toilets must be caused by them.

Explaining The Reciprocity Between Your Brain and Your Belly For the past decade, the scientific community has increased its focus on mental health disorders including anxiety, depression,

Relational Dominance: A Testable Structural Hypothesis for Navier–Stokes Turbulence

What if one of the most powerful models for understanding the human brain were less than an inch long, transparent, and living in a small tank? Meet Danio rerio, the zebrafish.

A magnificent nonsurgical radiofrequency (RF) therapy, which involves using energy waves to heat the dermis (the deep layer of the skin), has evolved as one of the finest treatments for skin tightening. The healthcare provider uses an electromagnetic device that generates heat to stimulate collagen production, the production of elastin, and the growth of new skin cells. This therapy helps firm and lift sagging skin. However, the results are temporary.
