Disease Progression Mathematical Modeling With a Case Study on Hepatitis B Virus Infection

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 420-434, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Chronic Hepatitis B presents a significant health and socioeconomic burden. The risk of hepatocellular carcinoma remains elevated although treatments are available. Achieving an optimal treatment regimen necessitates a deep comprehension of the dynamic relationship between the virus and its host across disease states.

The Role of Global Political Economy in Community‐Based Adaptation to Climate Change—Practitioners' Experience and Opinions

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Community‐based adaptation scholars and practitioners acknowledge that power asymmetries pose significant barriers to project impact. Nevertheless, there is little research on the role of the global political economy as the root cause of vulnerability.

The Theory of Interpersonal Behaviour Applied to the Mediating Influence of Habit on Recycling Behaviour in South African Townships

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recycling rates in South African townships remain critically low, undermining progress towards sustainable development and the transition to a circular economy. This study applies the theory of interpersonal behaviour (TIP) to examine how recycling habits mediate the relationship between key drivers—past behaviour, environmental concern ...

Resource redeployment as an entry advantage in resource‐poor settings

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Scarcity of productive factors poses a challenge for firms entering underdeveloped regions. We theorize that incumbent firms can overcome scarcity of skilled human capital in local labor markets by redeploying workers from existing units.

Acid Resistant and Highly Silver Selective Membranes Based on Charged Nanoporous 2D‐Materials

Small, EarlyView.
In this work, new membranes based on charged & nanoporous nanosheets with unprecedented selectivity to silver versus a wide range of other metallic ions are reported. Furthermore, a demonstrated and lead specific intralamellar lead pathway is demonstrated. A potential applicability for ubiquitous silver in WEEE is validated.

Untreated Hair Dye Effluents Enter the Environment: Are They a Threat to Human Health?

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The effluents generated during the process of hair dyeing exhibit a complex composition, comprising chemical compounds with varying toxicity levels. While the adverse impact of hair dyes on human health is acknowledged, there is a notable absence of studies addressing the toxicity associated with effluents produced during these activities. The

Concrete jungle to urban oasis: evaluating scale, vegetation cover, and aggregation of urban greenspaces on wildlife

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban greenspaces are a haven for wildlife in densely populated cities. Wildlife use greenspaces for resource acquisition, shelter, and travel across urbanized landscapes. Greenspace metrics such as herbaceous or woody landcover, size, patchiness, and human land use influence species richness.

Bi‐level capacity planning for park IES considering energy supply reliability

Energy Conversion and Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Carbon emissions and energy consumption of urban buildings represent a notable fraction of global energy utilization. In pursuit of the “carbon peaking and carbon neutrality” goals, urban park building integrated energy system (IES) energy saving technology is regarded as a key technology to achieve sustainable urban development.

Assessing Water Solubility of Ester‐Based Oils and Unravelling Their Mechanisms by a Quantitative Model

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Moisture is a sensitive issue for transformer oils, as it adversely affects the stability of insulation papers and dielectric strength of the oils. However, the lack of a quantitative model makes it challenging to evaluate the water solubility of ester‐based oils, which is an undesirable restriction for developing novel ester‐based oils ...

Long‐term changes in functional diversity and its implications for mammalian conservation and ecological restoration in a grassland ecosystem

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Paleontological data provide information on natural environments prior to human influence, which are useful for tracking changes in ecosystem functioning through time. During the Late Pleistocene, about 10% of terrestrial mammalian species were extinct in South America.
