Scientists accidentally find deep-sea 'jelly' creatures merged into 'single entity' after injury, revealing bizarre new behavior

It checks the 12 most common forms of the disease: #lung, #breast, #prostate, #pancreatic, #colorectal, #ovarian, #liver, #brain, #oesophageal, #bladder, #bone and soft tissue #sarcoma, and #gastric.

Scientists at Southampton University are understood to have used clinical information from 20,000 cancer patients to develop the screening.

The next stage involves improving the efficacy of the artificial intelligence involved, which analyses the test samples and biomarkers”

So here I am in #hospital - TYSM to all who supported/informed my #surgical questions recently.

Late Fri nite after unsatisfying answers from local ER re sdn onset #gastric #pain went to next city’s trauma ER.

An hour later, being prepped for surg on perf ulcer.

Doesn’t get shoulder fixed ofc but, w/o the shoulder pain id have ignored the gastro pain far longer and at great risk.

Thanks for the input folks, stay safe.
