Researchers in Korea followed over 9,600 adults for 15 years and found that both short and long sleep durations, especially ...

After adjustments, both activity patterns were associated with similarly lower risks of heart attack (27% and 35% lower risks for active weekend warriors and active-regular, respectively, compared ...

Depending on their arrangement, a regular pattern can emerge. Scientists around David Zwicker, head of the Max Planck Research Group "Theory of Biological Fluids" at MPI-DS, now developed a model ...

Weekend warrior and regular physical activity patterns were associated with lower risk for more than 200 incident diseases. Both activity patterns had prominent effects on cardiometabolic conditions.

"That's a very regular pattern," Turner points out. In contrast, the metamaterials tested in the paper exhibited a wide range of patterns, from regular to highly disordered.

The ability to sense regular patterns is fundamental to making sense of the world. Stimulus from the environment activates a group of neurons in the frontoparietal region of the brain called the ...
