Do Medication Beliefs Influence Adherence to Topical Therapies in Patients With Atopic Dermatitis?
ABSTRACT Background Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin condition affecting 10–20% of the global population and is characterized by red, itchy, and dry skin. While consistent medication adherence is necessary for adequate management of AD, patients' adherence to topical therapies can decline by 70% within initial days of treatment ...

Sulfonated, Disulfide‐Bridged Polymer Networks for Atmospheric Water Harvesting
Atmospheric water harvesting is a promising solution to the water crisis. Here, disulfide‐containing hyper‐crosslinked‐style polymers are prepared by combined Friedel–Crafts alkylation and thiol self‐condensation. Exhibiting exceptional uptake capacities, the polymers demonstrate dynamic bonding behavior.
