Hydrogels Augmented With Artificial Sweeteners can Inhibit Multidrug‐Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Growth and Biofilm Formation While Demonstrating Safety in Pre‐Clinical Pilot Human Trials

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Using PVA–borax hydrogels as carriers for off‐the‐shelf artificial sweeteners to fight multidrug‐resistant A. baumannii. These soft, biocompatible hydrogels rapidly reduce bacterial viability within multidrug‐resistant A. baumannii biofilms by more than 99% within one hour and sustain antimicrobial activity over time, while demonstrating safety in both

Cicada Wing‐Inspired Skeleton‐GO Networks in Melamine Foams for Multifunctional High‐Performance Composites

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the intricate microstructure of cicada wings, researchers developed a novel in situ skeleton‐graphene membrane architecture within lightweight foams. This bioinspired design dramatically enhances multifunctional performance: vibration attenuation time decreases by ∼83.3%, damping capacity increases by ∼179.3%, and compressive modulus rises ...

Gut Microbial Topology and Metabolic Signatures Associated With Colorectal Neoplasia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The gut microbiota organizes into two robust association patterns linked to colorectal neoplasia risk. Topological shifts in microbial networks are associated with metabolite alterations and may shape host responses during disease development. ABSTRACT Alterations of gut microbial communities impact health.

Differentiated Impacts of EU Rural Development Measures: A Finite Mixture Evaluation of Italian Olive Farms

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between participation in the EU Rural Development Program and the economic performance of Italian olive farms using a finite‐mixture model with inverse‐probability‐weighted regression adjustment. Based on 2010–2022 FADN panel data, it estimates heterogeneous treatment effects while correcting for selection ...
