Injectable Bone Cements: A Generational Framework for Bioactivity, Porosity, and Mechanobiological Design at the Nanoscale

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Key demographic, biological, and material considerations that drive the need for advanced injectable bone cement technologies. Injectable bone cements (IBCs) are widely used in orthopaedic and craniofacial applications due to their minimally invasive delivery and ability to provide early mechanical stabilisation.

Changes in vegetation structure and composition of a lowland mire over a sixty‐five‐year interval

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Mires are characterized by plant communities of high conservation and societal value, which have experienced a major decline in area in many parts of the world, particularly Europe. Evidence suggests that they may be particularly vulnerable to changes in

Game‐based learning for undergraduate consolidation: A qualitative study of how game‐based learning provides much more than knowledge acquisition

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Game‐based learning (GBL) is increasingly used in medical education to supplement traditional didactic learning methods. Adult learners in particular may benefit from GBL, given the autonomous and iterative nature of a well‐designed educational game.

Melting and structure of the vortex solid in strongly anisotropic layered superconductors with random columnar pins [PDF]

, 2004
We study the melting transition of the low-temperature vortex solid in strongly anisotropic layered superconductors with a concentration of random columnar pinning centers small enough so that the areal density of the pins is much less than that of the ...

The evidence base for ranger patrol effectiveness in conservation and how to improve it

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ranger patrols are a cornerstone of wildlife protection efforts around the world and occur across all ecological governance systems. Evidence that patrols reduce threats to wildlife and enable their recovery has not been systematically examined previously.

Effect of permafrost thaw on CO2 and CH4 exchange in a western Alaska peatland chronosequence [PDF]

, 2014
Permafrost soils store over half of global soil carbon (C), and northern frozen peatlands store about 10% of global permafrost C. With thaw, inundation of high latitude lowland peatlands typically increases the surface-atmosphere flux of methane (CH4), a

From Compliance to Circularity: A Design‐Led Approach to Recyclable Packaging

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition to recyclable packaging is a strategic priority for the Fast‐Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) sector, aligning with the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR). Adapting to regulatory uncertainty and integrating evolving recyclability criteria require not only technical innovation but also organisational transformation ...

Howden Moss: a study of vegetational history in Upper Teesdale [PDF]

, 1976
The peat deposits at Howden Moss, Upper Teesdale, have been examined stratigraphically and pollen analytically. The present state of the bog in described and pollen diagrams are presented for three sites. The results show that peat formation had begun by
