Radiation‐Based 3D Dual‐Mode Thermal Management Devices: Advances in Active/Passive Switching for Energy‐Saving Applications

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Heating and cooling energy demand account for nearly half of the global energy consumption. SH and RC offer sustainable, zero‐energy strategies, but single‐mode devices lack adaptability. 3D dual‐mode devices, exploiting axial, flipping, and bending deformations, provide reversible switching with dynamic or passive control, representing a promising ...

Gas Adsorption‐Driven Electronic Modulation in WO3@Cu3(HHTP)2 Heterostructure: Mechanistic Origin of Selective Drift Resistance Room‐Temperature Formaldehyde Sensing

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A WO3@Cu3(HHTP)2 heterostructure is engineered to achieve ultra‐sensitive, drift‐resistant formaldehyde detection at room temperature. Interfacial orbital hybridization and defect modulation enable adsorption‐driven electronic tuning, resulting in ppb‐level detection, rapid response, and high selectivity.

Early‐Life Nutritional Supplements, Household Environments, and Air Pollution Associated With Children's Helicobacter pylori Infection: A Chinese Multicenter Mother‐Child Study

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Early‐life intake of nutritional additives, particularly during pregnancy and the early postnatal period, reduces the risk of Helicobacter pylori infection (HPI) in children by enhancing immune function and preventing gastrointestinal infections through proper nutrition, supporting the “(Pre‐)Fetal origins of HPI” hypothesis through the “gut–uterine ...

Variation on Toxic and Inflammatory Potential of Coal Smoke of Different Sources From a Region With High Lung Cancer Risk

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excess lung cancer risk in Xuanwei and Fuyuan, China, has been attributed to household air pollution from use of a locally sourced smoky (bituminous) coal. However, the carcinogenic mechanisms remain unclear. Given the important role of inflammation in lung cancer development, this study compared the proinflammatory potentials of the ...

Sargassum Lung Syndrome: Air Flow Obstruction and Bronchial Inflammation Are Observed After Prolonged Exposure to Sargassum Gas Emissions in the Eastern Caribbean

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...
