Patch Test Reactions to Dental Materials: A Retrospective Single‐Centre Study

open access: yesContact Dermatitis, Volume 95, Issue 4, Page 386-395, October 2026.
In this retrospective single‐centre study of 439 adults referred for suspected delayed‐type hypersensitivity to dental materials, 50.1% had at least one positive patch test reaction, most often to metals. Nickel (23.0%) and palladium (16.6%) pre‐dominated, whilst methacrylate positivity was uncommon (6.2%) and not fully captured by HEMA alone.

Eusocial bee species are exposed to different toxic element profiles despite foraging within the same landscape

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 5, Page 912-925, October 2026.
Bombus terrestris and Apis mellifera colonies sharing the same landscape (<50 m from each other) collected pollen with significantly different heavy metal concentrations. B. terrestris‐collected pollen contained 2–7× higher concentrations of arsenic, chromium, cobalt, lead and tin than A. mellifera‐collected pollen.

Stage‐Adaptive Janus Microneedle System for Redox‐Immune Regulation and Mitochondrial Protection in Infected Diabetic Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 54, 28 September 2026.
ABSTRACT Infected diabetic wounds are sustained by a vicious cycle of hyperglycemia‐driven bacterial infection, persistent oxidative stress, and excessive inflammation, which collectively disrupt the ordered progression of tissue repair. Here, we engineered a stage‐adaptive Janus microneedle patch (MN‐FeSAC‐PPE) to enable a staged therapeutic process ...
