Greenland’s Shape Is Shifting As Ice Melts
Greenland, the world’s largest island, is undergoing dramatic geological changes. As researchers continue mapping the interaction of ancient ice accumulation and accelerating melt, new work shows the land itself is stretching, contracting, and drifting northwest at roughly two centimeters per year. Led by scientists at the Technical University of Denmark, an international team spent two decades gathering precise GPS readings at 58 locations across Greenland, offering unprecedented detail into the forces reshaping its ground.https://indianf.com/greenlands-shape-is-shifting-as-ice-melts/

Higher Stillbirth Rates in U.S., Many Cases Still Unexplained
A large-scale study led by Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public HealthandMass General Brigham reveals that stillbirths affect more pregnancies than earlier estimates suggested, with rates exceeding the longstanding national average. Researchers reviewed over 2.7 million pregnancies from 2016 to 2022, finding more than one in 150 deliveries ended in stillbirth—considerably higher than the CDC’s figure of one in 175.

Regular and Diet Soft Drinks Linked to Higher Fatty Liver Risk
Regular and diet soft drinks, long seen as routine beverages, may significantly increase the risk of fatty liver disease and liver-related death. A new large-scale study presented at UEG Week 2025 revealed that both sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) and low- or no-sugar-sweetened beverages (LNSSBs) were tied to higher chances of developing metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).

Pathetic Scenario Of Indian Healthcare
India’s healthcare sector is on the verge of collapse, as explicitly acknowledged by India’s Parliamentary Committee. A recent research report by Zee News states approximately 44% of human surgeries in India are fake. They are either fraudulent or performed unnecessarily. This means nearly half of the surgeries conducted in hospitals are done solely to fleece patients or the government. The report further categorizes surgeries by type. It states that 55% of heart surgeries, 48% of hysterectomies, and 47% of cancer surgeries are fake or unnecessary. Additionally, 48% of knee replacements and 45% of C-sections are unwarranted. Other surgeries like shoulder replacements and spine surgeries are similarly affected.https://indianf.com/pathetic-scenario-of-indian-healthcare/

Dogs show human-like language learning
Pooches, puppers, and doggos all refer to the same animal. Now, scientists have discovered that dogs themselves can make similar linguistic connections. A groundbreaking study from Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary suggests that dogs are capable of “label extension”—a process central to human language development. This is the same principle young children use. They learn that a ladle is just a big spoon. They also understand that “cup” can describe mugs, glasses, and flagons.https://indianf.com/dogs-understand-word-labels-study/
