Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

The importance of correcting for health-related survey non-response when estimating health expectancies: Evidence from The HUNT Study [PDF]
Demographic ResearchBACKGROUND: Most studies on health expectancies rely on self-reported health from surveys to measure the prevalence of disabilities or ill health in a population.

Attrition of Households and Individuals in Panel Surveys [PDF]
Attrition is mostly caused by not contacted or refusing sample members. On one hand it is well-known that reasons to attrite due to non-contact are different from those that are due to refusal.

Handling Attrition in Longitudinal Studies: The Case for Refreshment Samples [PDF]
, 2013 Panel studies typically suffer from attrition, which reduces sample size and can result in biased inferences. It is impossible to know whether or not the attrition causes bias from the observed panel data alone.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Dry electrode technology revolutionizes battery manufacturing by eliminating toxic solvents and energy‐intensive drying. This work details two promising techniques: dry spray deposition and polymer fibrillation. How their unique solvent‐free bonding mechanisms create uniform microstructures for thicker, denser electrodes, boosting energy density and ...

Dental attrition in a South Indian skull
Australasian Orthodontic Journal, 1990 The skull of a twentieth-century man presented by chance and was recognised as an example of attritional occlusion. It was photographed and x-rayed and seemed to be a worthy supplement to Begg’s classic work.

Modification of Mantle Cargo by Turbulent Ascent of Kimberlite
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2019 Kimberlite magmas transport cratonic mantle xenoliths and diamonds to the Earth's surface. However, the mechanisms supporting the successful and efficient ascent of these cargo-laden magmas remains enigmatic due to the absence of historic eruptions ...

Attrition in longitudinal household survey data [PDF]
Longitudinal household data can have considerable advantages over much more widely used cross-sectional data. The collection of longitudinal data, however, may be difficult and expensive.

Microplastics from Wearable Bioelectronic Devices: Sources, Risks, and Sustainable Solutions
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Bioelectronic devices (e.g., e‐skins) heavily rely on polymers that at the end of their life cycle will generate microplastics. For research, a holistic approach to viewing the full impact of such devices cannot be overlooked. The potential for devices as sources for microplastics is raised, with mitigation strategies surrounding polysaccharide and ...
