Delayed Exposures and Pre‐Exposure Periods in Self‐Controlled Case Series Studies
ABSTRACT A key assumption of the self‐controlled case series (SCCS) method is that exposures should not depend on the event of interest. However, treatments such as vaccines may be deferred after an adverse health event. One suggestion to handle such delayed exposures is to include a pre‐exposure window in the SCCS model.

Designing Scalable Mechano‐Virucidal Nanostructured Acrylic Surfaces for Enhanced Viral Inactivation
Can a surface be designed to physically break viruses? This study explores how nanoscale geometry—specifically the spacing of tiny pillars—can determine whether viruses remain intact or rupture. Using flexible acrylic and a scalable fabrication process, the authors develop nanopillared, transparent surfaces that show strong antiviral activity without ...
