Atmospheric Water Harvesting Through Polymer Hydrogel Sorbents: Materials Chemistry, Design Strategies, and Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based hydrogels have emerged as promising materials for atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) due to their high water affinity, tunable network structure, and excellent moisture adsorption‐desorption performance. Functional hydrogel systems enable efficient water capture and controlled release under low‐energy conditions, offering a sustainable ...

Redefining Ethical Protection: A Three-Layer Separation Model of Philosophical Personhood, Ethical Protection, and Legal Personhood

This paper aims to redefine the criteria for ethical protection on a scientific basis. Current legal and ethical frameworks use "legal personhood" as the criterion for protection, but this is grounded in social consensus rather than scientific evidence ...

Sex‐ and Time‐Resolved Physiological and Gut Ecosystem Responses to a Food‐Grade Microbiome‐Targeted Intervention in Collegiate Endurance Athletes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In collegiate endurance athletes, a 6‐week randomized CPYE intervention yielded time‐ and sex‐dependent shifts in field‐based cardiorespiratory, metabolic, and redox indices, accompanied by changes in gut multi‐omics profiles. An exploratory extension during intensified training generates hypotheses warranting future validation.

Global Burden and Temporal Trends of Early‐Onset Tracheal, Bronchial, and Lung Cancer: An Analysis of GLOBOCAN 2022 and GBD 2023 Data

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study systematically assessed the global burden and temporal trends of EOTBL cancer in individuals aged 15–49 years. Smoking, ambient particulate matter pollution, and secondhand smoke remain dominant risk factors. Countries within the same Human Development Index (HDI) category exhibit distinct epidemiological trajectories, underscoring the need ...

Passive Color Imaging Through Macroscopic Strong Scattering Media

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Light reflected from distant targets is severely attenuated and scattered by dense fog. A color‐channel‐simulated, independently exposed sCMOS array (CISA), combined with a passive colorful de‐scattering pipeline (PCDP), captures and reconstructs extremely weak target signals.

CausalCellInfer: Prioritizing Cell‐Type‐Specific Disease Associations From Genetically Predicted Transcriptomes in Biobank Cohorts

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bulk and genotype‐imputed transcriptomes obscure the cellular drivers of complex disease. CausalCellInfer resolves them by integrating invariant marker selection, deep learning deconvolution, and regularized matrix completion. Applied to ∼500 000 UK Biobank participants across 29 traits, it uncovers hallmark cell‐type proportion shifts, including ...
