Is sunlight good for our heart? [PDF]
, 2010 Humans evolved being exposed for about half of the day to the light of the sun. Nowadays, exposure to sunlight is actively discouraged for fear of skin cancer, and contemporary lifestyles are associated with long hours spent under artificial light ...

The objective imperative: advancing chronic orofacial pain research with the brain-heart axis [PDF]
Exploration of MedicineThe biopsychosocial model is the prevailing framework for chronic orofacial pain (COP). While COP is a heterogeneous clinical entity involving nociceptive and neuropathic components, it is increasingly defined by its nociplastic features—a systemic, non ...

Algae Living in Salamanders, Friend or Foe? [PDF]
, 2018 Roughly speaking, our bodies use energy from the sun, but we can\u27t use sunlight directly. Instead, plants and algae collect sunlight and store it as chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis.

Solar Sails : Technology and demonstration status [PDF]
, 2012 Solar Sail propulsion has been validated in space (IKAROS, 2012) and soon several more solar-sail propelled spacecraft will be flown. Using sunlight for spacecraft propulsion is not a new idea.

The seasonality of tuberculosis, sunlight, vitamin D, and household crowding. [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: Unlike other respiratory infections, tuberculosis diagnoses increase in summer. We performed an ecological analysis of this paradoxical seasonality in a Peruvian shantytown over 4 years. METHODS: Tuberculosis symptom-onset and diagnosis dates
