ImportanceIncreasing use of second-line noninsulin antidiabetic medication (ADM) in pregnant individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) may result in fetal exposure, but their teratogenic risk is unknown.ObjectiveTo evaluate periconceptional use of second-line noninsulin ADMs and whether it is associated with increased risk of major congenital malformations (MCMs) in the infant.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis observational population-based cohort study used data from 4 Nordic countries (2009-2020), the US MarketScan Database (2012-2021), and the Israeli Maccabi Health Services database (2009-2020). Pregnant women with T2D were identified and their live-born infants were followed until up to 1 year after birth.ExposurePericonceptional exposure was defined as 1 or more prescription fill of sulfonylureas, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, or insulin (active comparator) from 90 days before pregnancy to end of first trimester.Main Outcomes and MeasuresRelative risks (RRs) and 95% CIs for MCMs were estimated using log-binomial regression models, adjusting for key confounders in each cohort and meta-analyzed.ResultsPericonceptional exposure to second-line noninsulin ADMs differed between countries (32, 295, and 73 per 100 000 pregnancies in the Nordics, US, and Israel, respectively), and increased over the study period, especially in the US. The standardized prevalence of MCMs was 3.7% in all infants (n = 3 514 865), 5.3% in the infants born to women with T2D (n = 51 826), and among infants exposed to sulfonylureas was 9.7% (n = 1362); DPP-4 inhibitors, 6.1% (n = 687); GLP-1 receptor agonists, 8.3% (n = 938); SGLT2 inhibitors, 7.0% (n = 335); and insulin, 7.8% (n = 5078). Compared with insulin, adjusted RRs for MCMs were 1.18 (95% CI, 0.94-1.48), 0.83 (95% CI, 0.64-1.06), 0.95 (95% CI, 0.72-1.26), and 0.98 (95% CI, 0.65-1.46) for infants exposed to sulfonylureas, DPP-4 inhibitors, GLP-1 receptor agonists, and SGLT2 inhibitors, respectively.Conclusions and RelevanceUse of second-line noninsulin ADMs is rapidly increasing for treatment of T2D and other indications, resulting in an increasing number of exposed pregnancies. Although some estimates were imprecise, results did not indicate a large increased risk of MCMs above the risk conferred by maternal T2D requiring second-line treatment. Although reassuring, confirmation from other studies is needed, and continuous monitoring will provide more precise estimates as data accumulate.

AbstractAtmospheric moisture is a valuable resource for fresh water and potentially sustainable energy. However, direct harvesting water from moisture (the vapor form) remains the most challenging. Hybrid desiccants made from hydrogels embedded with salt offer promise in absorbing moisture. However, the desorption process often requires additional energy to heat the samples. Here, poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) hydrogels embedded with lithium chloride are prepared, demonstratng simultaneous moisture absorption and self‐release of liquid water at room temperature with 50–90% relative humidity. The water self‐releasing process can be separated into two distinct stages: 1) surface release, where water droplets grow on the hydrogel surface due to differences in nucleation and diffusion rates, and 2) bulk release, triggered by the collapse of polymer chains, subsequently releasing water from the hydrogel network. Factors such as salt concentration, hydrogel crosslinking density, and film thickness are investigated to better understand the moisture absorption and water‐releasing processes. Moreover, hydrophobic domains are introduced onto the salt‐embedded PAA films, creating an edge effect that enhances the droplet growth rates. When the hydrophobic domains are patterned, the movement of released water can be guided, resulting in a threefold increase in water removal rate attributed to gravitational force.

AbstractNon‐Hermitian (NH) physics describes novel phenomena in open systems that allow generally complex spectra. Introducing NH physics into topological metamaterials, which permits explorations of topological wave phenomena in artificially designed structures, not only enables the experimental verification of exotic NH phenomena in these flexible platforms, but also enriches the manipulation of wave propagation beyond the Hermitian cases. Here, a perspective on the advances in the research of NH topological phononic metamaterials is presented, which covers the exceptional points and their topological geometries, the skin effect related to the topology of complex spectra, the interplay of NH effects and topological states in phononic metamaterials, etc.

AbstractThe realization of large‐scale industrial application of alkaline water electrolysis for hydrogen generation is severely hampered by the cost of electricity. Therefore, it is currently necessary to synthesize highly efficient electrocatalysts with excellent stability and low overpotential under an industrial‐level current density. Herein, Ir‐incorporated in partially oxidized Ru aerogel has been designed and synthesized via a simple in situ reduction strategy and subsequent oxidation process. The electrochemical measurements demonstrate that the optimized Ru98Ir2‐350 electrocatalyst exhibits outstanding hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance in an alkaline environment (1 M KOH). Especially, at the large current density of 1000 mA cm−2, the overpotential is as low as 121 mV, far exceeding the benchmark Pt/C catalyst. Moreover, the Ru98Ir2‐350 catalyst also displays excellent stability over 1500 h at 1000 mA cm−2, denoting its industrial applicability. This work provides an efficient route for developing highly active and ultra‐stable electrocatalysts for hydrogen generation under industrial‐level current density.

AbstractHuman skin comprises multiple hierarchical layers that perform various functions such as protection, sensing, and structural support. Developing electronic skin (E‐skin) with similar properties has broad implications in health monitoring, prosthetics, and soft robotics. While previous efforts have predominantly concentrated on sensory capabilities, this study introduces a hierarchical polymer system that not only structurally resembles the epidermis‐dermis bilayer structure of skin but also encompasses sensing functions. The system comprises a polymeric hydrogel, representing the “dermis”, and a superimposed nanoporous polymer film, forming the “epidermis”. Within the film, interconnected nanoparticles mimic the arrangement of interlocked corneocytes within the epidermis. The fabrication process employs a robust in situ interfacial precipitation polymerization of specific water‐soluble monomers that become insoluble during polymerization. This process yields a hybrid layer establishing a durable interface between the film and hydrogel. Beyond the structural mimicry, this hierarchical structure offers functionalities resembling human skin, which includes (1) water loss protection of hydrogel by tailoring the hydrophobicity of the upper polymer film; (2) tactile sensing capability via self‐powered triboelectric nanogenerators; (3) built‐in gold nanowire‐based resistive sensor toward temperature and pressure sensing. This hierarchical polymeric approach represents a potent strategy to replicate both the structure and functions of human skin in synthetic designs.

AbstractUnderstanding where, when, and why agroecosystems are changing requires quality information about ecosystems that span land tenure, ecological processes, and spatial scales. Over the past two decades, land management agencies and research groups have adopted a suite of standardized methods for monitoring rangelands, which have been implemented at over 85,000 monitoring locations globally. However, the ability to use these data to understand agroecosystem dynamics and change across scales and across land ownership has been limited because, until now, these data have not been available in a harmonized, accessible format for analyses, modeling, and decision‐support tools. We present the Landscape Data Commons, a cyberinfrastructure platform that harmonizes and aggregates standardized agroecosystem data, enables linkages to models, and facilitates analysis and interpretation of data within decision‐support tools. The Landscape Data Commons provides a community platform for users to contribute data and develop next‐generation tools to support agroecosystem management through the 21st century.

AbstractA two‐step solar thermochemical looping cycle based on Co3Mo3N/Co6Mo6N reduction/nitridation reactions offers a pathway for green NH3 production that utilizes concentrated solar irradiation, H2O, and air as feedstocks. The NH3 production cycle steps both derive process heat from concentrated solar irradiation and encompass 1) the reduction of Co3Mo3N in H2 to Co6Mo6N and NH3; and 2) nitridation of Co6Mo6N to Co3Mo3N with N2. Co3Mo3N reduction/nitridation reactions are examined at different H2 and/or N2 partial pressures and temperatures. NH3 production is quantified in situ using liquid conductivity measurements coupled with mass spectrometry (MS). Solid‐state characterization is performed to identify a surface oxygen layer that necessitates the addition of H2 during cycling to prevent surface oxidation by trace amounts of O2. H2 concentrations of > 5% H2/Ar and temperatures >500 °C are required to reduce Co3Mo3N to Co6Mo6N and form NH3 at 1 bar. Complete regeneration of Co3Mo3N from Co6Mo6N is achieved at conditions of 700 °C under 25–75% H2/N2. H2 pressure‐swings are observed to increase NH3 production during Co3Mo3N reduction. The results represent the first comprehensive characterization of and definitive non‐catalytic production of NH3 via chemical looping with metal nitrides and provide insights for technology development.

Published: December 2023

AbstractThe cooling mechanism of hot carriers (HC) in metal halide perovskites is a topic of debate which gathered huge attention due to its critical role in the performance of perovskite‐based optoelectronics. HC cooling in 2D perovskites is faster than in its 3D counterpart, whereas in 2D/3D perovskites cooling becomes faster with decreasing the thickness of the inorganic quantum wells. Using state‐of‐the art first principles calculations it is showed that the modulation of electron–phonon (e‐ph) coupling strength between bending and stretching phonon branches can explain this observation. Starting from the prototype BA2PbI4 and PEA2PbI4 2D perovskites, e‐ph coupling of individual phonon modes is investigated for 2D/3D perovskites with n = 1 and 3, along with a vis‐à‐vis comparison with the prototypical 3D MAPbI3 system. This study shows that e‐ph coupling with high‐frequency stretching phonon modes in the 60–120 cm−1 range is highest for n = 1 while it decreases with increasing the quantum well layers, by approaching the 3D bulk limit where e‐ph coupling with low‐frequency bending phonon modes (<60 cm−1) is dominant. Longer spacer cations with identical quantum well structures have a limited impact on the e‐ph coupling, highlighting that the primary factor governing HC cooling is the quantum confinement within the inorganic sublattice. This study provides an advancement in the understanding of the mode‐specific e‐ph mediated HC cooling mechanism in metal‐halide perovskites and can provide a route map toward tuning the e‐ph interaction, which is instrumental for effectively gathering HC in solar cell devices.

AbstractRechargeable lithium–oxygen batteries (LOBs) are considered to be one of the most promising energy storage systems. However, the use of reactive lithium (Li) metal and the formation of Li dendrites during battery operation would lead to serious safety concerns, especially when flammable liquid electrolytes are utilized. Herein, superior metal–organic framework (MOF) glass‐based solid‐state electrolytes (SSEs) is developed for stable all‐solid‐state LOBs (SSLOBs). These non‐flammable and boundary‐free MOF glass SSEs are capable of suppressing the dendrite growth and exhibiting long‐term Li stripping/plating stability, contributing to superior Li+ conductivity (5 × 10−4 S cm−1 at 20 °C), high Li+ transference number (0.86), and good electrochemical stability. It is discovered that discharge product deposition behavior in the solid‐solid interface can be well regulated by the ion/electron mixed conducted cathode fabricated with MOF glass SSEs and electronic conductive polymers. As a result, the SSLOBs can be stably recharged for 400 cycles with a low polarization gap and deliver a high capacity of 13552 mAh g−1. The development of this proposed MOF glass displays great application potential in energy storage systems with good safety and high energy density.
Unlocking the potential of circular consumption: The influence of circular habits, environmental concerns and the search for pro‐sustainable information on circular consumption
Authors: Gomes Sofia , Lopes João M. 
Published: December 2023

AbstractIn response to growing environmental and sustainability concerns, the circular economy and consumption have become significant themes in recent years. The transition to a circular economy is considered a critical move toward sustainable development as it addresses challenges, such as climate change, waste, pollution and biodiversity loss. The present study evaluates the influence of environmental concerns and the search for pro‐sustainable information by Portuguese consumers on their circular habits and their influence on their circular consumption choices. Furthermore, it assesses the influence of environmental concerns and Portuguese consumers' search for pro‐sustainable information on their circular consumption when mediated by their circular habits. Through an online questionnaire, 826 valid responses were collected from Portuguese consumers over 18 years of age, using a non‐probabilistic convenience sampling technique. The hypotheses established in the research model were tested using the Partial Least Squares method. Results indicate that environmental concerns and the search for pro‐sustainable information positively impact circular habits, with more emphasis on energy and water saving, and zero plastic use. Additionally, environmental concerns and the search for pro‐sustainable information directly correlate with circular consumption decisions, although this relationship is less intense when mediated by circular habits. Based on the results obtained in this study, a model of consumer participation in the circular economy is proposed. Consumers' adherence to responsible circular consumption habits can transform traditional corporate business models into circular models, accelerating more efficient management of natural resources and ensuring global sustainability and future generations' survival.

Published: December 2023

AbstractLong‐term avian nesting data are valuable to researchers studying various aspects of avian ecology, conservation, and management. Administered by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, NestWatch accepts nesting data from volunteers and professionals who agree to follow its protocol and submit data in a standardized form using either the website NestWatch.org, the mobile app, or a bulk upload template. These data (N = 574,288 nest records currently spanning 1874–2023) have been used to examine geographical and temporal variation in breeding success, clutch size, nesting phenology, and other metrics of interest to researchers. When combined with other data sets (e.g., climate, land cover, maps of environmental stressors), NestWatch data have been used to explore the large‐scale effects of anthropogenic change on nesting biology. These data can also be incorporated into investigations of status and trends for declining species and can potentially be aggregated with other large‐scale nest‐monitoring data sets to explore hemispheric or even global change. By committing these data to the public domain, we aimed to increase their use among researchers and stimulate novel studies.

Published: December 2023

AbstractInnate lymphocytes comprise cytotoxic natural killer (NK) cells and tissue‐resident innate lymphoid cells (ILC) that are subgrouped according to their cytokine profiles into group 1 ILC (ILC1), ILC2, and ILC3. However, cell surface receptors unambiguously defining or specifically activating such ILC subsets are scarcely known. Here, we report on the physiologic expression of the human activating C‐type lectin‐like receptor (CTLR) NKp65, a high‐affinity receptor for the CTLR keratinocyte‐associated C‐type lectin (KACL). Tracking rare NKp65 transcripts in human blood, we identify ILC3 to selectively express NKp65. NKp65 expression not only demarcates “bona fide” ILC3 from likewise RORγt‐expressing ILC precursors and lymphoid tissue inducer cells but also from mature NK cells which acquire the NKp65‐relative NKp80 during a Notch‐dependent differentiation from NKp65+ precursor cells. Hence, ILC3 and NK cells mutually exclusively and interdependently express the genetically coupled sibling receptors NKp65 and NKp80. Much alike NKp80, NKp65 promotes cytotoxicity by innate lymphocytes which may become relevant during pathophysiological reprogramming of ILC3. Altogether, we report the selective expression of the activating immunoreceptor NKp65 by ILC3 demarcating ILC3 from mature NK cells and endowing ILC3 with a dedicated immunosensor for the epidermal immune barrier.
