Perovskite semiconductors for solar-driven photoelectrocatalytic applications: Materials, mechanism, and perspectives

Perovskite semiconductors (ABX 3 ) are increasingly being investigated as photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) materials for solar-to-chemical conversion owing to their favorable optoelectronic properties and strong light-harvesting capability. Their tunable bandgaps, pronounced visible-l...

ITC Limited: a sustainable investment decision

Learning outcomes Learning objectives are as follow: Case overview/synopsis The case examines whether a long-term, fundamentals-oriented fund should invest in the stock of ITC, a diversified Indian company with its largest business segment being cigarettes, after considering the...

Modelling dissipative dynamics of r-mode instability in hybrid stars

Abstract Compact star cores reach extreme densities and may contain exotic dense-matter phases. Information about the exotic interiors of rapidly rotating pulsars can be inferred from r-mode oscillations, whose stability is governed by viscous dissipation. In this work, we model...

AI-assisted design of green nanocarriers for targeted drug delivery in chronic wounds

Chronic wounds represent a persistent clinical challenge owing to their complex pathophysiology, including prolonged inflammation, microbial infection, impaired angiogenesis, and delayed tissue regeneration. Conventional therapeutic approaches often exhibit limited efficacy due t...

Recent advances in biosensors for cancer diagnosis and analytical strategies

Around 20 million cancer cases were diagnosed around the world in 2022, killing almost 10 million individuals. Additionally, there are projections for this pattern to continue to rise significantly in years ahead. The methods typically used to provide cancer diagnoses (i.e. imagi...

Blockchain‐Enabled Risk‐Aware RPL With Real‐Time Rank Evaluation and Trust‐Weighted Consensus for Secure IoT Routing

ABSTRACT The need for efficient routing arises in Internet of Things (IoT)–based networks that comprise low‐power and lossy nodes. Routing Protocol for Low‐Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) has multiple limitations, including rank manipulation attacks, inefficient energy utilization...

Pseudo-RGB Slice Stacking in 2D ResUNet for High-Sensitivity Multiple Sclerosis Lesion Segmentation

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, affecting more than 2.8 million individuals worldwide. Automated segmentation of white matter lesions on fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) magnetic resonance...

Orbital engineering for enhanced quantum capacitance and ion transport in supercapacitor electrodes: Ni–N Co-Doped V₂C/WS₂ MXene heterostructure

Abstract This study presents a comprehensive first-principles density functional theory (DFT) investigation into how single (Ni, N) and synergistic Ni–N co-doping modifies the structural, electronic, and electrochemical properties of V₂C/WS₂ an oxygen-terminated V₂CO₂/WS₂ heteros...

The Substrate-EngineModel of Ferroptosis: Stage-SpecificTargeting of Acyl-CoA Synthetase Long-Chain Family Member 4 and 5-Lipoxygenasein Alzheimer’s Disease

Abstract Ferroptosis-targeted therapies in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) have yielded consistent preclinical evidence; however, their translation into clinical outcomes has remained elusive. This mismatch reflects a fundamental flaw that conceptualizes this peroxidative pathway as a s...

Predictive Modeling of Zero Inflated Count Data with Spatio-temporal Effects

Count data observed in numerous real-world applications, particularly in fields such as epidemiology, highway safety and insurance often exhibit overdispersion, excess number of zeros and spatio-temporal heterogeneity. To address these issues, in this article, zero-inflated gener...
