Urban Housing Markets and Sustainability Risk: Empirical Evidence From South African Cities
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite the global shift toward sustainability and rising expectations for socially and environmentally responsible housing, evidence from South Africa's urban markets remains limited and underexplored. This study examines how sustainability‐related vulnerabilities shape downside housing risk across 60 cities between 2002 and 2021.

Nonlinear Effects of Renewable Energy Integration on Sustainable Development in OECD Countries
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines the nonlinear relationship between the green quality of the energy mix and sustainable development in 35 OECD countries from 1995 to 2022. Unlike conventional renewable‐energy shares, the Green Quality Index (GQI) is an emissions‐weighted indicator that accounts for differences in the carbon intensity of energy sources and ...

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review
VIEW, EarlyView.Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.
