Retracted: Can the chemical industry solve the climate change?On the role of human energy production, renewable energies, and the potential of chemistry as a solution provider

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView., 2023
Let us consider an alternative perspective on climate change: The sum of solar radiation and heat generated by human activity result in a net energy input of 1.96 times that of the Sun on the Earth's surface. The expanding global population is expected to exacerbate this issue. Potential solutions are proposed, including replacement and heat recycling.

Self‐Driving Laboratory Optimizes the Lower Critical Solution Temperature of Thermoresponsive Polymers

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A low‐cost, self‐driving laboratory is developed to democratize autonomous materials discovery. Using this "frugal twin" hardware architecture with Bayesian optimization, the platform rapidly converges to target lower critical solution temperature (LCST) values while self‐correcting from off‐target experiments, demonstrating an accessible route to data‐

Stroke Lesion Prediction by Bille-Viper-Segmentation with Tandem-MU-net Model

ADVANCED ULTRASOUND IN DIAGNOSIS AND THERAPY
Stroke is a critical condition marked by the death of brain cells due to inadequate blood flow, necessitating improved predictive models for stroke lesions. The accuracy and flexibility required to forecast and classify stroke lesions is lacking in current approaches, which compromise patient outcomes.

Denial of Inpatient Genetic Testing: A Study on Outpatient Yield and Outcomes

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genetic conditions suspected in children often require genetic testing for accurate diagnoses, but testing remains costly. Case management teams review genetic test requests to improve access for patients while reducing the financial burden for medical institutions.
