Cigarette Smoke‐Induced Alveolar Macrophage Senescence via GEM/SIRT3‐Mediated Mitochondrial Dysfunction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cigarette smoke accelerates the aging of immune cells in the lung. By combining human single‐cell sequencing, cell culture, and mouse models, the authors show that the protein GEM drives mitochondrial damage and senescence in alveolar macrophages by suppressing SIRT3.

Essential, Yet Precarious, Mistreated, Sick and Medicalized: A Sequential Explanatory Mixed‐Methods Study on Homecare Aides in Spain

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Homecare aides (HCAs) are professional non‐family caregivers, who support dependent individuals to live at home with dignity; yet in Spain they remain understudied and vulnerable, often facing precarious working conditions. We aimed to characterize HCAs’ employment, living conditions, health, and exposure to workplace violence and ...
