Light‐Controlled Localized Delamination and Blistering of Azobenzene‐Containing Polymer Thin Films in an Aqueous Environment

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
When exposed to light of a defined wavelength, the photoisomerization of azobenzene chromophores leads to polymer reorientation, generating stresses that result in solvent‐facilitated localized delamination of the film from the substrate. Additionally, blisters that form spontaneously when exposed to an aqueous environment can be manipulated via ...

Differentiating the impact of non-optimum temperature and temperature variability on cause-specific cerebrovascular mortality: An individual-level, case-crossover study in Shanghai, China

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Background: Cerebrovascular mortality exhibits seasonal variation, but the roles of temperature and temperature variability (TV) in cause-specific cerebrovascular mortality remain unclear.

Scalable Fabrication of Chemically Stabilized Gelatin Hydrogel Fibers by Thermal Drawing

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Scalable processing of hydrogel fibers remains a major challenge. By coupling thermal drawing with Maillard chemistry, a transient viscous‐flow window is created that enables continuous fabrication of microstructured gelatin fibers tens of meters long, while continued in situ crosslinking during drawing stabilizes the fibers for physiological ...

Leveraging Mechanical Resonances for the Selection of Promising Materials in Complex Phase Spaces

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A central challenge in materials science is the design of new functional materials with enhanced performance for targeted applications. This paper demonstrates that “listening” to materials through measuring their mechanical resonances is a rich, and largely untapped, platform for the rapid identification of promising novel compounds and a powerful ...

Differentiating the impact of fine and coarse particulate matter on cause-specific cerebrovascular mortality: An individual-level, case-crossover study

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Background and objectives: Many studies suggested that short-term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and coarse particulate matter (PM2.5–10) was linked to elevated risk of cerebrovascular disease.

Methodological Assessment of Case–Crossover Studies

مجله اپیدمیولوژی ایران, 2008
The case-crossover design was developed in the early 1990s to study the effects of transient, short-term exposures on the risk of acute events such as myocardial infarction. To estimate relative risk, the exposure frequency during a period just before outcome onset (hazard period) is compared with exposure frequency during control time(s) in that ...

Route Infrastructure and the Risk of Injuries to Bicyclists: A Case-Crossover Study

American Journal of Public Health, 2012
Objectives. We compared cycling injury risks of 14 route types and other route infrastructure features. Methods. We recruited 690 city residents injured while cycling in Toronto or Vancouver, Canada. A case-crossover design compared route infrastructure at each injury site to that of a randomly selected control site from the same trip.

Dataset for: Sample size estimation for case-crossover studies

, 2018
Case-crossover study designs are observational studies used to assess post-market safety of medical products (e.g. vaccines or drugs). As a case-crossover study is self-controlled, its advantages include better control for confounding because the design ...
