SPORTS UTILITY VEHICLES AND VULNERABLE ROAD USERS
American Journal of Public Health, 2007 We read with interest the article by Robertson,1 and we certainly agree that the sports utility vehicles (SUVs) pose an increased risk to small car occupants as well as vulnerable road users, such as pedestrians, cyclists, older persons, and children.2 In many developing countries, pedestrians, cyclists, rickshaw operators, and moped users represent

Vulnerable Road Users or Vulnerable Transport Planning?
Frontiers in Sustainable Cities, 2020 The concept of vulnerable road users is widely used in transport and road safety discourse. The concept refers to walkers or pedestrians and cyclists (bicyclists and motorcylists) who are easily injured and killed in a car-dominated road space. Who is really vulnerable: road users or transport planning?

The acceptance of conditionally automated cars from the perspective of different road user groups
European Journal of Transport and Infrastructure Research, 2021 The foreseeable advent of conditionally automated cars (CACs) at SAE Level 3 opens a range of opportunities along with numerous questions that must be addressed to safely adopt this new vehicle technology.

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.
