Reactions to standardised cigarette packs with varying structural designs, and the association with smoking susceptibility: A post-implementation cross-sectional survey with never-smoking adolescents in Scotland

Tobacco Prevention and Cessation, 2020
Background From 20 May 2017, cigarettes in the United Kingdom must be sold in standardised (plain) packaging, however, in the UK cigarette packs are permitted to have varying shapes (e.g. bevelled-edges and slim) and opening methods (e.g.

In Situ Interfacial Assembly of Dynamic Semi‐Interpenetrating Biopolymer Networks for Robust and Mechanically Adaptive Droplet Interfaces

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dynamic interfacial semi‐interpenetrating polymer network is constructed by sequential assembly of β‐sheet‐rich SF and CS‐RL. The SF framework provides mechanical strength, while dynamically associated CS‐RL enables local rearrangement, allowing droplets to rapidly reconfigure without loss of interfacial integrity.

Identifying potential barriers and enablers to smoking abstinence after leaving a smokefree prison using the capabilities, opportunities, motivations -behaviour (COM-B) model: a qualitative interview study

BMC Public Health
Background Smokefree prison policies reduce smoking-related harms among those living and working in prisons. Helping people released from smokefree prisons to remain abstinent post-release could deliver considerable additional benefits given high rates ...

A MARKET WITH A SOCIAL CONSUMPTION EXTERNALITY*

The Japanese Economic Review, 2005
We model a spatial market in which the utility of each consumer is affected by the collection of consumers who buy precisely the same product. The marginal contribution of another consumer x’s purchase on consumer y depends on |y - x|. This marginal contribution declines as |y - x| increases and can be negative.

Tantalum–Palladium Ultrathin Resistance Hydrogen Sensor

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Nanoconfined Ta‐alloy thin films enable fast, reversible hydrogen sensing by suppressing unwanted phase transitions. A Ta0.88${\rm Ta}_{0.88}$Pd0.12${\rm Pd}_{0.12}$ sensing layer delivers hysteresis‐free detection from ppb to 100% H2${\rm H}_2$ at room temperature.

Development of the cultural tailoring score (CTS): a scoring instrument to assess cultural tailoring of health messaging

Health Literacy and Communication Open
Background Cultural tailoring of health information has been associated with better health outcomes in minority populations. While contractors and partner organizations are asked to produce culturally appropriate materials, there are no government ...

Exceptional Electro‐Optic Coefficient Unlocked via Polarization Swaying in KNbO3 Thin Films

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We present the largest reported electro‐optic response in any material to date, guided by a new design principle that exploits ultralow coercive field polarization swaying enabled by low‐symmetry ferroelectric phases in monoclinic KNbO3 thin films for energy‐efficient classical and quantum photonic integrated circuits. ABSTRACT The electro‐optic effect

Endosomal Escape of siRNA Polyplexes: A Molecular Dynamics Perspective on Underlying Mechanisms

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular dynamics simulations reveal distinct endosomal escape mechanisms of siRNA nanoparticles, ranging from electrostatic membrane attachment to hydrophobic membrane fusion. Hydrophobic residues and anionic endosomal lipids emerge as key determinants of membrane disruption, linking molecular interactions to experimental delivery performance and ...

Highly Efficient and Stable Roll‐to‐Roll Coated Perovskite Solar Cells Enabled by Antisolvent Vapor‐Assisted Crystallization

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Antisolvent Vapour‐Assisted Crystallization (AVAC) enables controlled perovskite crystallization through precisely metered antisolvent vapour, eliminating liquid antisolvent waste. Compatible with roll‐to‐roll (R2R) slot‐die coating, AVAC produces uniform, pinhole‐free films with enlarged grains, delivering efficiencies of 18.3% for R2R fabricated ...
