‘Shelter is a Dignity’: Rental Racism, Stress and Housing (In)justice

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Australia's private rental sector is in crisis, and culturally and racially minoritised renters face compounded harms through both covert and everyday direct forms of rental racism. Drawing on five community‐based focus groups in Melbourne (n = 37), the paper explores how racism manifests across the rental pathway and how it structures the ...

Palladium‐Catalyzed Annulations of an Anti‐Bredt Olefin

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We report metal‐catalyzed trappings of a [2.2.1]‐bridged bicyclic anti‐Bredt olefin (ABO). The methodology yields unusual heterocyclic products and is expected to prompt the further development of unconventional reactions, including metal‐catalyzed processes of ABOs and other strained olefins. ABSTRACT A famous class of alkene‐containing compounds that

Short Sb···Sb Contacts in Polymorphic Tris(p‐Tolyl)Antimony: A Hallmark of Organoantimony(III) Solid‐State Chemistry?

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Discovery of polymorphism in solid tris(p‐tolyl)antimony(III) highlighted short, direct antimony‐antimony contacts, with interatomic separation shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii, and calculated interaction energy of ca. 26 kJ mol−1 that includes a significant dispersion component.

Monoallelic POLR3A Variants Cause Early‐Onset Peripheral Neuropathy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Biallelic variants in genes encoding the RNA polymerase III complex (Pol III) cause a spectrum of neurological disorders primarily affecting the central nervous system. Monoallelic variants have been reported in the POLR3B subunit only, associated with neurodevelopmental disorder, epilepsy, and peripheral neuropathy.

Diabetes and the Metabolic Syndrome as Drivers of Neurodegeneration: Convergent Mechanisms Linking Peripheral Neuropathy and Dementia

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
The metabolic syndrome, a state of progressive metabolic dysfunction, injures the peripheral and central nervous systems, promoting peripheral neuropathy (PN) and cognitive impairment (CI), respectively. We posit PN and CI are connected in the metabolic syndrome framework, built on the premise that neurons, whether in the peripheral or central nervous ...

Perivascular Spaces as Determinants of Amyloid, Tau, and Vascular Biomarker Progression

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐visible enlarged perivascular spaces (PVS) are markers of cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) and aging, processes implicated in both neurodegenerative and cerebrovascular pathologies. However, longitudinal positron emission tomography (PET) studies examining PVS as a mechanism underlying Alzheimer's disease ...
