When explorer Ernest Shackleton’s ship, Endurance, got trapped in pack ice, a broken rudder was blamed. For more than a century, historians accepted this explanation. Now, an analysis suggests that structural weakness caused the Endurance to sink, and that Shackleton knew about his ship’s failings, according to Dr. Jukka Tuhkuri, a professor in the department of energy and mechanical engineering at Aalto University in Finland. Tuhkuri reported the findings Monday in the journal Polar Record. Read more: https://cnn.it/4obQPv4

Drinking as little as one can of diet soda a day may increase the risk of nonalcohol fatty liver disease by 60%, while drinking a sugary beverage could raise the risk by 50%, a new unpublished study found. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, or NAFLD, is a condition in which fat builds up in the liver of people who drink little to no alcohol. The damage can be similar to what’s seen in a heavy drinker and lead to cirrhosis — advanced scarring of the liver — as well as liver cancer. The condition, which is also called metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, or MASLD, is one of the leading causes of liver cancer. It’s estimated that NAFLD has increased by 50% in the United States within the past three decades — today, some 38% of the population has the condition. “Sugar sweetened beverages (SSBs) have long been under scrutiny, while their ‘diet’ alternatives are often seen as the healthier choice,” said lead study author Lihe Liu, a graduate student in the department of gastroenterology at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, in Suzhou, China.

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention signed off on a recommendation that patients must consult a health care provider to get a Covid-19 vaccine, although they don’t necessarily need a prescription. The recommendations were made by a new panel of vaccine advisers chosen by US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. They away from a broader push in past years for most people to get a Covid-19 vaccine. With CDC’s OK, the recommendations are final and US vaccine schedules will be updated, HHS said on Monday. Read more: https://cnn.it/42r3zFw

The people who are most vulnerable to the hard-to-breathe air that comes with climate change may inadvertently be adding to the problem, new research finds. About 34 million Americans have a chronic lung disease, including 28 million who have asthma, according to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America – and the number is expected to grow as higher temperatures bring more weather phenomena that trigger breathing issues like droughts, floods and wildfires. To treat conditions like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, millions of Americans use what doctors often call metered dose inhalers, small boot-shaped devices that spray set doses of medication into the lungs in a quick burst using propellants called hydrofluoroalkanes, or HFAs. Studies published Monday in the journal JAMA found that medication inhalers are “substantial” contributors to planet-warming pollution. It’s not the medicine itself that’s the problem; rather, it’s the HFAs. https://cnn.it/4mPyMJG
