Stimuli‐responsive nanostructured hydrogen sulfide donors for enhanced cancer treatments

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
Three typical kinds of stimuli‐responsive nanostructured hydrogen sulfide (H2S) donors are reviewed. The nanostructures ensure precise delivery of H2S to the lesion site and regulate the release behavior. The H2S‐based gas therapy has been used to synergize with other cancer treatment modalities, achieving enhanced efficacy while reducing side effects.

Normative Constraints Moderating Variability in Complex Sociotechnical Systems

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Systems resilience frameworks have advanced understanding of how complex systems adapt under uncertainty and stress. However, existing models primarily conceptualize adaptation as a performance‐centred adjustment and thus under‐specify how institutionalized normative commitments structurally delimit adaptability. This research note argues that
