Homogeneous PHB–SF Electrospun Scaffolds as an Alternative to Synthetic Mesh for Stress Urinary Incontinence

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Homogeneous polyhydroxybutyrate–silk fibroin electrospun scaffolds combine the favorable biological activity of silk fibroin with the mechanical strength of polyhydroxybutyrate. The resulting fibers support fibroblast attachment and organized extracellular matrix formation while providing tunable, tissue‐relevant mechanics, demonstrating a promising ...

Late Holocene Occupation and Resource Use in the Sub‐Coastal Moreton Region: The Open‐Air Howard Creek Site, Southeast Queensland

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper reports archaeological investigations at the Howard Creek site, a Late Holocene open‐air site in the sub‐coastal Moreton region of southeast Queensland. The site adds to a regional record based largely on rockshelter excavations. Development‐led salvage investigations included excavation, radiocarbon dating, lithic analysis, and use‐
