Atmospheric Aerosol Neurotoxicity and Parkinson's Disease: Mechanisms and Perspectives
Schematic overview of the pathways and pathological mechanisms connecting atmospheric aerosol exposure to PD. Atmospheric aerosols, including PM2.5 and nanometer/ultrafine particles loaded with metal particles, persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and dioxins, enter the body predominantly via pulmonary ...

A Review on Polymer Bonding Through Interdiffusion and Role of Deformation‐Acceleration
Polymer bonding is reframed through deformation‐induced bonding, an energy‐efficient route that joins polymer films without conventional heat‐intensive or adhesive‐based processing. By comparing established bonding methods with deformation‐induced bonding, this review highlights potential energy and cost savings while identifying opportunities across ...

Evaporation Dynamics From Flowing Water Surfaces
Abstract In contrast to the wealth of information on evaporation dynamics from placid water surfaces such as lakes and reservoirs, estimating water evaporation from turbulent surfaces of streams remains a challenge. Evidence suggests considerable differences in evaporation rates from flowing water bodies relative to placid surfaces.

Lung Cancer in Never Smokers—An Underappreciated Public Health Burden
ABSTRACT Background Lung cancer in lifelong never‐smokers represents a significant public health burden, although it is underappreciated. Lung cancer in never smokers (LCINS) accounts for a substantial proportion of lung cancer cases, representing ~15%–25% depending on the geographic region.

Main sources of indoor radon in the Swiss Central Alps
To estimate the amount of radon gas transferred from the water to the indoor atmosphere of dwellings in the Swiss Central Alps, the radon concentrations of tap water of about 50 public water supplies were analysed.
