Compliant hydrogel cuff coating with real‐time pressure monitoring and antibiofilm capabilities for ventilator‐associated pneumonia prophylaxis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A soft‐compliant hydrogel cuff coating combines real‐time pressure monitoring with intrinsic antibacterial activity for prophylaxis of ventilator‐associated pneumonia. A flexible pressure‐sensing patch is embedded in the coating to enable wireless dynamic monitoring of endotracheal cuff pressure through Bluetooth.

The influence of circadian variables on ecotoxicology metabolomics

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ecotoxicologists are using metabolomics increasingly to gain insight into toxicological mechanisms and sublethal effects of chemical exposures. Metabolomics offers a sensitive multi‐parameter approach that can detect biochemical responses not obvious using apical and behavioural endpoints.

Dark Matter freeze-in during warm inflation and the seesaw mechanism

Journal of High Energy Physics
A compelling way to address the inflationary period is via the warm inflation scenario, where the interaction of the inflaton field with other degrees of freedom affects its dynamics in such a way that slow-roll inflation is maintained by dissipative ...

The environmental dependence of ecological interaction networks

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Interactions between species are often assumed to occur whenever species pairs co‐occur, allowing us to reconstruct local ecological networks from a deterministic ‘metaweb’. Over the past few years, an increasing number of papers have called for a reassessment of this simplistic assumption.

Leveraging Reverse Engineering for CSCM Practices: Demystifying the Roles of Compositional Capability and Cooperative Orientation Under Humane Orientation and Competition Intensity

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular supply chain management (CSCM) practices are seen as a solution for addressing society's many significant environmental challenges. Although existing studies recognise the importance of reverse engineering in combating poverty, there is limited knowledge about its effectiveness in shaping CSCM practices to address climate change and ...

Back to Nature or Technology to the Rescue? Climate Managers' Preferences for Investment in Carbon Dioxide Removal

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Firms are increasingly looking into carbon dioxide removal (CDR), a set of options to take past emissions of greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere. Often two basic categories of CDR are distinguished: nature‐based solutions, such as planting trees or restoring wetlands, and technology‐based solutions, such as various forms of carbon capture ...

Primordial non-Gaussianity in noncanonical warm inflation with nonminimal derivative coupling

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
In this paper, the scenario of noncanonical warm inflation with nonminimal derivative coupling is introduced, and its primordial non-Gaussianity of perturbations on uniform energy density hypersurfaces is systematically analyzed.

Global Energy Corporations and Climate Change: The Role of Formal and Informal Institutions in Shaping Climate Change Risk Disclosure

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines climate change risk disclosure in the global energy sector, where firms face intense stakeholder scrutiny and legitimacy pressures. We develop a novel domain‐specific textual analysis measure to capture climate change risk disclosures, improving on prior approaches based on generic environmental terminology.

Sustainability Orientation and Sustainable Innovation: Can Organisational Resilience Clarify the Missing Link?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although firms that integrate a sustainability orientation (SO) may experience a significant improvement in their resource efficiency, many, particularly small‐ and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs), still struggle with the complexities of incorporating sustainability into their business models.

Financial Constraints and Corporate Sustainability Performance: Do Climate Exposure and People's Climate Attention Matter?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the relationship between financial constraints and a firm's sustainability performance. Our empirical analysis utilises a panel of 40,445 observations from 9466 listed non‐financial firms across 44 countries, spanning the period from 2002 to 2019.
