Regulatory Convergence and Divergence in ESG Reporting in the Indo‐Pacific Region

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) reporting has evolved significantly globally over the past few decades. Many countries are now signatories to international agreements such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Paris Agreement, with increasing commitments to emissions reduction targets and the

Origin of Physicochemical and Mechanical Stability of Low‐Temperature Prepared TiO2‐Based Photocatalytic Films: Surface Hydroxyl Density Matching

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Material science advances show how surface chemistry improves low‐temperature prepared TiO2‐SiO2 composite films. Using a colloidal‐based synthesis method instead of a powdered‐based one, researchers exploit hydroxyl groups' interfacial interactions to create nanoscale structures with superior physicochemical and mechanical stability.

Food‐grade proteins, lipids, and fibers as potential tools to ameliorate cardiovascular disorders: A review

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the leading cause of global mortality, necessitating effective preventive and adjunct therapeutic strategies beyond conventional pharmacological interventions. Although previous reviews have focused on individual nutrients or dietary patterns, this review provides a mechanism‐based, integrative perspective

A Multi‐Objective Periodic Vehicle Routing Model for Sustainable Healthcare Waste Collection

The International Journal of Health Planning and Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The collection of infectious waste from healthcare facilities (HCF) constitutes a recurring operational challenge. Indeed, despite the inherent health risks posed by the storage and the transportation of infectious materials, most of the existing waste collection systems tends to prioritise cost optimization and to underaddress the safety ...

Lung Cancer Patients Display Increased Expression of Bovine Meat and Milk Factor (BMMF) Proteins in Peritumor Alveolar Macrophages

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Plasmid‐like DNA sequences frequently found in bovine milk and serum have been proposed as infectious agents promoting indirect carcinogenesis. This multi‐omics study detected immune cells positive for these bovine meat and milk factors (BMMFs) in patients with lung cancer, with BMMF expression inversely correlated with smoking intensity.
