How Are Australian Local Governments Responding to the Homelessness Crisis? Findings From a National Study

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Australian local governments are facing intensifying pressures to respond to worsening visible homelessness. This paper presents one of the first national studies on how local governments are responding to these pressures, and the first since the onset of the post‐pandemic housing crisis.

Public Attitudes Toward Compassionate Release of Older People From Prison: Findings From a National Survey in Australia

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rapid increase in older people in prison populations worldwide is generating significant health, cost, and human rights pressures on custodial systems. Compassionate release for older, frail inmates is a potentially effective response, yet little is known about public support for this approach.

Temporary Tools for Child Housing Welfare

, 2016
In the last 10 years the cut of health and social services and the cut of public investment in housing policy have increase the unsatisfied social requirements of the population. This occurred when the Great Recession, which was triggered by a financial meltdown that started in the United States and spread rapidly across the globe, and has inflicted ...

Tensile Stimulation in Biorelevant Culture Conditions Enhances MSC and TPSC Tenogenesis on Aligned Electrospun Scaffolds

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Biomimetic electrospun scaffold incorporating GDF‐7‐loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles, combined with mechanical stimulation and physiological oxygen tension, guides tenogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stromal cell and tendon progenitor stem cell. This integrated approach enhances cell proliferation, matrix deposition, and tendon‐specific gene

Human Leukocyte Elastase Triggered Nanoparticles for Targeted Antimicrobial Delivery and Oral Microbial Modulation

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This study explores enzyme‐responsive nanoparticles for targeted antimicrobial release in inflamed oral environments. Nanoparticles formed by complexing peptides and chlorhexidine respond to human leukocyte elastase and release chlorhexidine selectively. P7 (ECAAPVCE)‐based formulations show optimal properties and stability, with antimicrobial activity

Optimized Selenium‐Doped Nanocomposites for Enhanced Polymer Gel Performance in Permeability Reduction

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excessive water production in mature oil fields necessitates robust shut‐off treatments, yet conventional polymer gels often fail under high‐temperature and high‐salinity conditions. This study aims to enhance gel thermal stability and mechanical strength by incorporating selenium‐doped Ag/AgO–ZnO nanocomposites synthesized via a novel green ...
