A medication designed to treat asthma showed no benefit over fake pills in helping most people reduce alcohol consumption. However, UCLA scientists found it helped women drink less during a recent clinical trial. Researchers gave 102 adults with serious drinking problems either ibudilast or a placebo twice daily for three months.

Still, women taking the real medication saw greater decreases in daily alcohol intake. Lara Ray, a UCLA psychology professor who led the study, said the findings point toward future

Pregnancy is often described as a transformative experience, but recent scientific research reveals that its impact extends beyond the physical realm, reaching deep into the brain. A groundbreaking study published in Nature Neuroscience has provided detailed insights into how pregnancy-induced hormonal changes lead to significant and lasting alterations in the female brain, drawing parallels to the brain remodeling observed during adolescence. The study, led by researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and the University of California, Irvine, involved 26 MRI scans of a 38-year-old woman from three weeks before conception through two years postpartum.
