Fundamentals, Advances, and Applications of Electrospun Nanofibrous 3D Materials
Three‐dimensional electrospun nanofibrous systems offer unique properties and microenvironments. These properties are determined by the fabrication strategies employed and can be adjusted by the incorporation of functional additives to achieve multifunctionality for specific applications. The applications range from the biomedical to the environmental,

Environmental and systems‐based safety in the obstetric operating room: A narrative review
Abstract Cesarean delivery requires an operating room (OR) that supports maternal surgery and anesthesia while preparing for fetal‐to‐newborn transition and, when needed, concurrent maternal and neonatal resuscitation. This narrative review applies a human factors framework to noise, information displays, medication and equipment organization, layout ...

Deepening the real options debate: Real options as dynamic optimization
Abstract Research Summary Is real option theory useful for management research? This topic was hotly debated two decades ago. Real options were said to be inapplicable to management research and to lack conceptual distinctiveness. Whereas responses to the claim about the non‐distinctiveness of real options were disparate, the concern about the theory's

ABSTRACT Objective To explore the associations between major modifiable risk factors and hearing loss. Methods This serial cross‐sectional study was conducted within the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999–2020 in the United States. Associations were assessed using modified Poisson regression and within‐sample population attributable ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Dental education involves continuous exposure to high‐frequency noise from clinical instruments, which may cause early outer hair cell damage even before professional practice begins. While noise‐induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a recognised occupational hazard among dentists, evidence regarding subclinical outer hair cell changes ...

ABSTRACT Background Occupational exposure to sustained high‐noise levels in intensive care units (ICUs) could pose significant auditory health risks for healthcare professionals. Aim This investigation evaluates the prevalence and characteristics of hearing impairment among nursing staff working in an intensive care unit (ICU) versus non‐ICU ...

Moral Bureaucracies: Objects, Values and Affects in a UK Asylum Office
ABSTRACT British asylum bureaucracy carries a paradoxical mandate: To allocate humanitarian protection while operating inside a policy regime explicitly designed to deter. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in a Home Office decision‐making office, this article examines how that contradiction is materialized in mundane bureaucratic objects—a whiteboard ...

Soft Skins With Reversible Thickness Morphing: Materials, Mechanisms, and Applications
Evolution of electronic skin (e‐skin) technologies toward adaptive, multifunctional soft skins. Phase I highlights early rigid and discrete sensory interfaces. Phase II shows the transition toward flexible, stretchable, and large‐area e‐skin. Phase III captures the emergence of computational e‐skin.

Bioengineered Interfaces for Peripheral Nerve Sensory Restoration
Half of amputees abandon their prosthetics for lack of feeling. This review charts the full path from peripheral nerve injury to restored sensation, through surgical, regenerative, noninvasive, and implanted approaches, and shows how injury type and interface material properties determine which strategy can deliver naturalistic feedback, and why ...
