A new study suggests that a soy-derived lysolecithin, LPC70, reduced high-salt diet (HSD)-induced hypertension, social behavior deficits, and object recognition memory impairment in mice. The benefits are associated with receptor-specific regulation in prostaglandin (PG) signaling. An increased production of arachidonic acid-derived PGs was also noted. The findings suggest LPC70 may serve as a functional food ingredient to mitigate HSD-associated cardiovascular and cognitive decline.
Mathematicians have shown that completely fair elections are – in a sense – impossible. No electoral system can guarantee both that local votes translate directly into local seats, and that total seat distribution matches overall vote shares: not without an indefinitely growing parliament.
A Stanford-led study showed that analyzing children’s speech could predict whether they developed mental health conditions, such as depression or anxiety, six years later.

An analysis of 1.6 million ICE arrests shows that while arrests are at a historic high, most of those detained have no criminal conviction. The study also shows that ICE has changed its tactics, with more arrests being made in community gathering places like schools, workplaces and airports.
