Insomnia is detrimental to college student health. The purpose of this study was to examine the interaction between two risk factors of insomnia-screen time use and loneliness-in college students. Respondents were 1,001 ( age = 19.9 [ = 2.3]) college undergraduates. Self-reported demographic information, daily screen time (social, nonsocial, or productivity), loneliness, and insomnia were collected. Analyses examined the interaction of screen time and loneliness on insomnia. Insomnia significantly correlated with loneliness and total, social, and nonsocial screen time. Less lonely students had an increase in insomnia symptoms with increased total and social screen time. However, lonelier students had greater insomnia symptoms than less lonely students, regardless of screen time. Greater than 8 h of total screen time per day elevated the risk for insomnia. Screen time was associated with insomnia symptoms; however, loneliness better predicted insomnia among college students.

Sake brewed using the kimoto-style exhibits high antioxidant capacity and is expected to inhibit the deterioration of sake quality due to oxidation. However, the antioxidant capacity of the added lactic acid bacteria has not been explored. We aimed to screen the lactic acid bacterium, Leuconostoc mesenteroides, with excellent brewing and antioxidant capacity, to develop sake with high antioxidant capacity.

Bloodstream bacterial infections, a major health concern due to rising sepsis rates, require prompt, cost-effective diagnostics. Conventional methods, like CO-based transduction, face challenges such as volatile metabolites, delayed gas-phase signaling, and the need for additional instruments, whereas electrochemical sensors provide rapid, sensitive, and efficient real-time detection. In this study, we developed a bioreceptor-free Prussian blue (PB) sensor platform for real-time bacterial growth monitoring in blood culture.
