Zhao Lusi Health Update: Actress Appears in Public for First Time After Scare

Yahoo27-01-2025
Chinese actress Zhao Lusi has made a surprise public appearance days after she suffered a health scare. Lusi has been going through a period of recovery after being hospitalized in Shanghai on December 18, 2024. Although she'd earlier updated her fans about her condition, the actress fully addressed the health scare while making her first appearance.
According to Asia One, Zhao Lusi was part of an event in Chengdu for the beverage brand Viee for the first time since her health scare. Upon her arrival, fans present at the event were filled with joy to see her recovering well.
As reported by ComingSoon previously, the actress, known for her work in the global hit C-Drama Hidden Love, was seen being supported by her staff as she was unable to walk. A clip of Lusi in a wheelchair in a weak state took over the internet causing a sense of worry to spread among her fans. Following this, speculations hit social media suggesting that Lusi's condition worsened because of depression, overwork, and possible aphasia.
However, her team provided an update on Weibo about her health stating that Lusi 'felt unwell and went to the hospital for examination and treatment' while filming for her upcoming project Lovers. In her interview with Global Times recently, Lusi opened up about her severe depression and revealed that it led to symptoms like loss of speech and further affected her other physical functions.
At the event, fans noticed Lusi using a cane to walk as she further shared details about her health scare. She conveyed, 'I experienced symptoms of paralysis and loss of speech. It was really hard to face myself at that time, but I'm so grateful to be like this right now.'
The actress also raised awareness and announced she is starting a foundation in collaboration with Viee to assist those dealing with mental health problems. She added, 'I hope everyone can take this illness seriously and not delay treatment until it gets so severe. I realised there are many people like me so I really want to do something for them.'

World's first robot ‘could give birth to human baby'

The world's first humanoid robot surrogate could give birth to a live baby, scientists have claimed. Experts are developing technology that will mimic a pregnancy from conception to delivery, with the infant growing inside an artificial womb and receiving nutrients through a tube. After nine months, a live baby will be born, according to Dr Zhang Qifeng, who founded the company Kaiwa Technology, in the city of Guangzhou. Dr Zhang, a PHD graduate from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, has claimed the technology is already in a 'mature stage'. He added: 'Now it needs to be implanted in the robot's abdomen so that a real person and the robot can interact to achieve pregnancy, allowing the fetus to grow inside'. A prototype of the humanoid is set to be sold for around £10,000 (100,000 yuan) next year. Reports in the Chinese media said that the humanoid has been designed to mimic the entire process of pregnancy, from the moment of conception to birth. However, the specifics on exactly how the egg and sperm are fertilised are currently unclear. For the entire gestation period, the infant will live inside the robot's body, although experts have not yet stated how the foetus will be implanted in the tech womb. The developing babies will be surrounded by artificial amniotic fluid to create a womb-like environment. Dr Zhang said the technology is not an entirely new concept, as scientists in the past have successfully kept premature lambs alive inside a 'biobag' for weeks. The innovation has already prompted a legal and ethical debate. Dr Zhang said he had already been in talks with Guangdong Province authorities to prepare drafts for policy and legislation. If successful, the science could revolutionise medical science and our notions of family and fertility. The humanoid could be seen as a tool to tackle rising rates of infertility in China, which has gone up from 11.9 per cent in 2007 to 18 per cent in 2020. 'Problematic' technology But some critics have condemned the 'problematic' technology, arguing that depriving a foetus of maternal connection is unethical and cruel. Chinese News outlet The Standard reported that some medical experts are sceptical over the technology's ability to replicate human gestation. The experts have allegedly stated that complex biological processes, such as maternal hormone secretion, cannot be duplicated by science. Andrea Dworkin, the radical feminist writer, has previously hit out at artificial womb technology for fears that it would result in 'the end of women'. Researchers from The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia published an article in 2022 in which they said that such technology might 'pathologise' pregnancy. However, some argue that artificial wombs could liberate women from pregnancy risks so that they would no longer have to endure the physical burden of carrying a baby. Solve the daily Crossword

The Foods Linked to Short-Sightedness in Kids—and What to Eat Instead

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids may help protect children from developing short-sightedness, new research suggests. The study examined more than 1,000 Chinese children aged 6 to 8, drawing participants from the ongoing Hong Kong Children Eye Study. Researchers tracked the children's eye health and analyzed their diets through a detailed food frequency questionnaire covering 280 different food items categorized into 10 groups. These included breads, cereals, pasta, rice and noodles, vegetables and legumes, fruits; meats, fish and eggs, milk and other dairy products, drinks, snacks including dim sum, fats and oils, and soups.

Children's hands eating fish with creamy sauce and broccoli in white plate, top view. vaaseenaa Roughly 27.5 percent of the children studied had myopia or short-sightedness. Those with higher dietary intake of omega-3 fatty acids—commonly found in fish oils—had a lower risk of the condition, while children with the highest intake of saturated fats—found in foods such as butter, red meat and palm oil—were more likely to show signs of the disorder. Measurements of axial length (the distance from the front to the back of the eye, a key marker of myopia progression) revealed that eyes were longest in children with the lowest intake of omega-3 fatty acids, and shortest in those with the highest intake. Similarly, measures of refractive error were most severe in children consuming the least omega-3s. The reverse pattern was seen among those with the highest saturated fat consumption. No other nutrients were associated with the development of myopia. While the study is observational and cannot prove cause and effect, the authors suggest that omega-3 fatty acids may suppress myopia by boosting blood flow through the choroid—a vascular layer in the eye that delivers oxygen and nutrients—thereby preventing oxygen deficiency in the sclera, a key factor in the onset of short-sightedness. The prevalence of myopia is increasing worldwide and is expected to affect half of the global population by 2050, with East Asia experiencing particularly high rates. Risk factors are believed to include excessive screen time, limited outdoor activity and genetic susceptibility. "This study provides the human evidence that higher dietary omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid intake is associated with shorter axial length and less myopic refraction, highlighting omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids as a potential protective dietary factor against myopia development," the authors wrote in their paper.
