Capital structure of listed property firms: Lessons from a property investment reform

South African Journal of Economic and Management Sciences
Background: In 2013, most South African listed properties converted from legal structures allowing unlimited leverage and tax-deductible interest to real estate investment trusts (REITs), which limit leverage and eliminate interest tax-shield benefits ...

Engineered Carbon Dots from a Traditional Herb Pair Orchestrate Concurrent Antioxidant and AP‐1‐Mediated Inflammation to Attenuate Renal Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study integrates two complementary traditional Chinese medicine components as precursors to synthesize bioactive AM‐AS@CDs. Compared with single‐component CDs, these dual‐component CDs exhibit enhanced antioxidant capacity and superior renoprotective effects.

A Skull Bone Marrow‐to‐Brain Axis Links Osteoblastic Activity to Myeloid Cell Trafficking, Cerebral Blood Flow, and Cognition in Alzheimer's Progression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that Alzheimer's disease–linked APP expression in bone‐forming cells drives skull bone marrow remodeling and alters its vascular connections to the brain. These changes disrupt immune cell trafficking, cerebral blood flow, and cognition. Targeting bone marrow macrophages restores brain function, highlighting a previously unrecognized

Targeting Golgi–STING Signaling to Reprogram Innate and Adaptive Immunity for the Treatment of Implant‐Associated Infections

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents an ultrasound‐responsive nanoplatform, CS‐BT@MZ@NEs, with a BaTiO3/Mn‐Zif‐8 core and a chondroitin sulfate coating for Golgi targeting. By leveraging neutrophil hitchhiking, it enables targeted delivery to infection sites. Under ultrasound stimulation, CS‐BT@MZ@NEs generates ROS and modulates Golgi pH to activate cGAS–STING ...

Asymmetrically Coordinated Dual‐Atom Manganese Contrast Agents Enabling High‐Efficiency T1 Enhanced MRI for Precise Tumor Visualization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel dual‐atom manganese MRI contrast agent (Mn‐BN) with a unique asymmetric coordination geometry provided a promising platform for sensitive and specific tumor imaging. In mice model, Mn‐BN nanoparticles precisely functioned as both a primary tumor‐specific enhancer in subcutaneous models and a hepatocyte‐specific agent in liver metastases models ...

Truth Approximation by Concretization in Capital Structure Theory

, 1994
This paper supplies a structuralist reconstruction of the Modigliani-Miller theory and shows that the economic literature following their results reports on research with an implicit strategy to come "closer-to-the-truth" in the modern technical sense in philosophy of science.

Quantum Photothermal Self‐Monitoring Fiber Probes for In Vivo Photothermal Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A miniaturized quantum photothermal fiber probe based on a metal/polymer/glass composite optoelectronic fiber that simultaneously guides lightwave and microwave was developed for the first time. The probe achieves enhanced photothermal conversion (13°C/mW, 25°C–120°C range) while providing real‐time self‐monitoring with 0.2°C thermal resolution at the ...

TRIM: Simultaneous Thermometry, Ranging, and Imaging via a Monolithic Metalens

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While metasurfaces offer a pathway beyond the discrete architectures of conventional LWIR systems, physically fusing high‐precision thermometry and passive ranging onto a single metalens remains a formidable challenge. Here, we demonstrate a monolithic, dual‐focus metalens capable of simultaneous multidimensional sensing.
