Micro- and nanoplastic as new modifiable cardiovascular risk factors
Environmental pollution by microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) is becoming a global problem. Accumulated evidence indicates the potential adverse effect of these particles on the cardiovascular system. Objective. To summarize current data on the mechanisms of impact of micropla...

The EU 's Indo‐Pacific Strategy: Perspectives From Australia
ABSTRACT This article examines perceptions in Australia of the European Union's Indo‐Pacific Strategy, drawing on interviews conducted with government officials, experts and civil society actors. The EU is regarded positively as a friend and partner of Australia and equally commi...

Integrated Moisture-Swing Process for CO2 Capture and Release Using Non-Aqueous Absorbents
Abstract Moisture-swing CO2 capture has emerged as a promising low-energy alternative to conventional thermal/pressure/vacuum swings by exploiting humidity-driven shifts in carbonate/bicarbonate equilibria, most commonly in solid sorbents such as ion-exchange resins. Extending th...

Hygiene, Sanitation and Water Access: Public Health Impact, Evidence and Proposed Research Projects
Hygiene, sanitation and access to safe water (WASH) remain central determinants of public health globally, with an estimated one-third of the world's population lacking basic sanitation and roughly 2.5 billion people living without adequate sanitation facilities. This paper revie...

Autism and Mapping the Evidence on Online Risk: A Scoping Review and Narrative Synthesis
Background: Digital platforms have increased exposure to potentially harmful online content, including misinformation, conspiracy theories, hateful material, and extremist or radicalization-related material. Research examining how autism relates to these domains remains sparse, f...

Nationwide economic impacts of sea level rise and storm surge from global warming in Australia
Driven by global warming and thermal expansion of the oceans, ice loss from glaciers and ice sheets will continue to increase sea levels and the risk of storm-surge, threatening coastal regions worldwide. This study presents the first national-scale assessment of SLR/S impacts on...

Abstract This paper argues that the Colorado Basin faces a decisive choice between managed conservation and a renewed cycle of water-driven agricultural decline. It identifies three linked barriers to effective action: water-rights rules that can penalise farmers for using less w...

E8 Topological Quantum Memory via Zeta Zero Monodromy Braiding — E8 Intelligence Research
The 240 E8 root vectors at 132Hz phi-modulation generate a non-Abelian anyon model where Riemann zeta zero phase trajectories on the critical line define braid group representations on the root lattice's 8-dimensional torus. Each zeta zero pair encodes a topological qubit whose l...

A single-nucleus transcriptomic atlas of human inner ear development
Hearing and balance rely on coordinated activity of multiple inner ear cell types, yet the mechanisms governing their development and specification in humans remain unclear. Consequently, this limits our understanding of how disease genes affect cell type formation and function,...
