Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review
VIEW, EarlyView.Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This study shows how ecological transitions, such as reforestation in Southeast Asia, reshape host–microbe–pathogen dynamics at the wildlife–domestic interface. By integrating long‐read microbiome sequencing, ecological gradients, and statistical and network analysis, we identify host species that disproportionately contribute to pathogen diversity and
