When Norms Meet Markets: Environmental Governance and Digital Fast‐Fashion Platforms in Brazil

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental governance increasingly relies on consumer‐based mechanisms that assume that sustainability awareness translates into purchasing behaviour. This article investigates whether such mechanisms remain effective when consumption is organised through transnational digital platforms in contexts characterised by socioeconomic inequality.

Imaging Methods for Analyzing Adhesion in Extrusion Coating

Surface and Interface Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extrusion coating is a common method to produce materials for the packaging industry. One of the most important properties in extrusion‐coated structures is adhesion between the substrate and the coating. Analyzing adhesion of samples produced by extrusion coating in a standardized way can be challenging, and especially, quantitative data are ...

Impact of sleep insufficiency and recovery on cancer development

Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Sleep plays a critical role in overall health, and modern lifestyles, such as shift work and late‐night activities, can significantly impact sleep condition. Insufficient sleep has been associated with various adverse health outcomes, including an increased risk of tumor development.

Immunomodulatory Nanozymes as Programmable Redox–Immune Set‐Point Regulators

Small, EarlyView.
Conceptual phase space linking reactive oxygen species level/dynamics to immune state, with pathological set‐points for chronic inflammation, tumor escape, and degeneration contrasted against a central healthy redox–immune set‐point. Buffering and amplifying nanozymes are depicted as devices that dial redox tone up or down to steer diseased ...

Better on Average? Average Inflation Targeting With an Unclear Averaging Window

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Average inflation targeting (AIT) aims to stabilize inflation expectations by offsetting past deviations from target. However, ambiguity about the averaging window can complicate expectations formation and reduce policy effectiveness. This paper integrates AIT into a benchmark DSGE model, incorporating adaptive learning and a signal extraction

The Allais Paradox and Upside/Downside Risk Preference: An Experimental Analysis With Probability Weighting and Chernoff Faces

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Allais Paradox is often attributed to the strong attraction of a certain option that avoids a downside risk, i.e., a small chance of a low payoff. In contrast, there is clear evidence from laboratory and field data that people are attracted to the upside risk of obtaining a relatively high payoff.

Halting the Progression of Acute Kidney Injury: A Tubular‐Inspired Reusable Detoxifier Against Protein‐Bound Uremic Toxins and Oxidative Stress

SusMat, EarlyView.
This graphical ToC illustrates a tubular‐inspired detoxifier (SDCMs–DS) that halts acute kidney injury progression. Inspired by proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs), the biomimetic design combines dissociation‐adsorption clearance of protein‐bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) with antioxidant protection. During hemoperfusion, danshensu (DS) released from

Maternal Lead Exposure Induces Glandular Alterations in the Salivary Glands of Rat Male Offspring

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lead (Pb) is a widely distributed environmental pollutant that is highly noxious due to its toxicokinetic characteristics. Pb exposure can damage vital organ systems, including the central nervous and stomatognathic systems. As salivary glands play an important role in oral homeostasis, this study aimed to investigate the effects of maternal ...
