Article Synopsis
- Wastewater-based surveillance has emerged since 2020 as a valuable and economical method for tracking public health, but must prioritize justice to ensure global health equity.
- Current ethics discussions on this topic have mainly focused on privacy and legality in North America and Western Europe, neglecting broader global implications.
- The authors propose a justice-centered framework using Nancy Fraser's theories to address issues like community definition, transparency, and inequalities, advocating for fair outcomes rather than strict regulations in varying contexts.
Article Synopsis
- Targeting PI3K/AKT/PTEN signalling offers promising therapy options for B-cell malignancies, particularly diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), despite challenges with existing PI3K inhibitors due to toxicity.
- The AKT inhibitor capivasertib, when used with the BCL-2 inhibitor venetoclax, shows significant therapeutic benefits in preclinical DLBCL models, inducing tumor cell death effectively.
- Adding rituximab to this drug combination enhances treatment outcomes, suggesting a potentially effective strategy for managing DLBCL patients who are resistant to standard therapies.
Background: Studies suggest that greater exposure to natural vegetation (i.e., greenness) is associated with better mental health.

Induction of PPARγ by HAdV-D36 seems to have a central role in the maintenance of adipogenic status. There is limited information about epigenetic mechanisms contributing to this process in human adipose tissue.

Lithium niobate on insulator is an excellent electro-optic (EO) platform, exhibiting high modulation efficiency and low optical loss, making it a fitting candidate for pulse generation through electro-optic modulation of continuous-wave (CW) light, a commonly utilized method for generating ultrashort pulses. Here, we demonstrate an on-chip electro-optic comb generation module on thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) consisting of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) amplitude modulator (AM) and a cascaded phase modulator (PM) system driven by a single-electrode drive.
