Distance-dependent adhesion of vascular cells on biofunctionalized nanostructures
Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2017 Cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) adhesion regulates fundamental cellular functions and is crucial for cell-material contact. Adhesion is influenced by many factors like affinity and specificity of the receptor-ligand interaction or overall ...

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.This study assessed toxic metals in five dried marine fish species from Bangladesh. Although most metals were within safe limits, chromium (Cr) consistently exceeded FAO/WHO standards, especially at Kuakata Beach. The findings highlight localized contamination hotspots and species‐specific bioaccumulation, while risk assessment supports the safety and ...

Global Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.Modeling of current and future spatial distribution of Antarctic lecideoid lichens shows that warming will strongly increase the potential habitat. Under three climate‐change scenarios, most fungal and algal partners are projected to expand inland. Overall, climate change drives widespread range shifts and promotes colonization of interior Antarctica ...

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.What's New? Anal and vulvar high‐grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs) frequently recur following treatment. Additional genital and anal procedures, however, can be distressing for patients and are potentially disfiguring. This trial assessed whether the 9‐valent human papillomavirus (9vHPV) vaccine reduces HSIL recurrence risk or HPV ...

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines the environmental, social and governance (ESG) scoring methodologies used by Bloomberg and S&P Global through the lens of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). It addresses a notable gap in the literature by identifying the underlying factors that shape ESG scores and providing practical insights for companies seeking to ...

Gender Differences in Multidimensional Poverty in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries
Journal of International Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite the growing demand for gender‐disaggregated statistics on poverty, there is hardly any cross‐country evidence of gender disparities in poverty. The paper contributes to filling this gap, by using two novel individual‐level indices of multidimensional poverty.

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Results indicate that, an increase in global warming level from 1.5°C to 2°C is likely to induce on the one hand a 3‐fold increase in the frequency of occurrence of dry and warm compound events, and on the other hand a 2‐fold increase in their duration, over West, Central, South‐West, and South‐East Africa, intensifying droughts through reduced ...

The FastECPP algorithm is currently the fastest approach to prove theprimality of general numbers, and has the additional benefit of creatingcertificates that can be checked independently and with a lower complexity.This article shows how by parallelising over a linear number of cores,its quartic time complexity becomes a cubic wallclock time ...

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Estimating water resources is important for regional climate impact analysis and risk estimation. The Middle East and Central Asia have largely reached the limit of sustainably usable water across their river basins and ecosystems. Strategies designed to mitigate environmental risks require a reliable estimation of water availability trends.

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Future runoff in China shows strong regional and seasonal disparities, with the Southeast basin seeing the largest increase in annual runoff. Wetter summers and drier winters are expected in the south, whilst the northwest will face the opposite. Over 56% of regions are expected to experience more extreme high runoff, and over 40% face intensified low ...
