Understanding Consumption of Illicit Drugs and New Psychoactive Substances in Australia by Triangulating Drug Checking and Wastewater‐Based Epidemiology

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
First Australian study combining wastewater‐based epidemiology and drug checking, demonstrating how complementary data sources enhance monitoring of illicit drugs and emerging psychoactive substances during high‐use periods. ABSTRACT Consumption of psychotropic drugs is a major economic and public health challenge in Australia.

Epidemiology of Intensive Nutritional Interventions and Restraints in Hospitalizations for Anorexia Nervosa: Annual National Trends of the United States

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Despite the clinical relevance of enteral and parenteral tube feeding and restraint use in anorexia nervosa (AN), national‐level data on their use have remained limited, particularly for total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG).

Contrasting patterns in urban energy and emission scaling

Environmental Research Letters
Cities drive most global energy use and emissions of greenhouse gases and other pollutants, yet how these quantities scale with urban population remains debated. Scaling analysis captures this relationship through the exponent β , which defines whether a

Climate‐driven resource availability drives medium‐ and broad‐scale temporal changes in owl–prey interactions over 24 years in a semi‐arid ecosystem

Ecography, EarlyView.
Predator–prey interactions are vital to ecosystem functioning but may be disrupted by climate change. We investigated a food‐web network involving three owl species over 24 years in a semi‐arid ecosystem at Bosque Fray Jorge National Park, Chile.

Carbon‐Negative Upcycling of Sewage Sludge into Superiorly Stable Gel Via Liquid‐Phase Utilization Strategy for Water‐Remediation

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work developed a low‐temperature sludge hydrothermal coupled with gel crosslinking strategy which could upgrade the waste liquid generated from sewage sludge hydrothermal treatment into the hydrothermal‐liquid‐gel. The inventive hydrothermal‐liquid‐gel exhibited the enhanced pollutant removal capability, high synthetic stability, and superior ...
