Bibliometric and visual analyses of vaccine literacy research from 1982 to 2023.

Vaccine literacy (VL) is an important part of health literacy (HL), which is of great significance in reducing vaccine hesitancy and improving vaccine coverage rate. We aimed to perform a bibliometric analysis of VL research conducted from 1982 to 2023 to evaluate its current status and prospects. All relevant publications were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database and the Scopus database.

Remote effects of kidney drug transporter OAT1 on gut microbiome composition and urate homeostasis.

The organic anion transporter OAT1 (SLC22A6, originally identified as NKT) is a multispecific transporter responsible for the elimination by the kidney of small organic anions that derive from the gut microbiome. Many are uremic toxins associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). OAT1 is among a group of "drug" transporters that act as hubs in a large homeostatic network regulating interorgan and interorganismal communication via small molecules.

The kidney drug transporter OAT1 regulates gut microbiome-dependent host metabolism.

Organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1/SLC22A6, NKT) is a multispecific drug transporter in the kidney with numerous substrates, including pharmaceuticals, endogenous metabolites, natural products, and uremic toxins. Here, we show that OAT1 regulates levels of gut microbiome-derived metabolites. We depleted the gut microbiome of Oat1-KO and WT mice and performed metabolomics to analyze the effects of genotype (KO versus WT) and microbiome depletion.

Mars' plasma system. Scientific potential of coordinated multipoint missions: "The next generation".

The objective of this White Paper, submitted to ESA's Voyage 2050 call, is to get a more holistic knowledge of the dynamics of the Martian plasma system, from its surface up to the undisturbed solar wind outside of the induced magnetosphere. This can only be achieved with coordinated multi-point observations with high temporal resolution as they have the scientific potential to track the whole dynamics of the system (from small to large scales), and they constitute the next generation of the exploration of Mars analogous to what happened at Earth a few decades ago. This White Paper discusses the key science questions that are still open at Mars and how they could be addressed with coordinated multipoint missions.

Localization of light induced in ordered colloidal suspensions: powerful sensing tools.

We study the light-matter coupling by Raman scattering in colloidal suspensions composed by core-shell TiO@Silica (Rutile@Silica) nanoparticles suspended in ethanol and water solutions. Strong enhancement of the Raman signal per particle is observed as [TiO@Silica] is increased above a threshold, being stronger in ethanol suspensions. Moreover, above this [TiO@Silica] threshold, the optical transmittance of the ethanol suspension starts to be considerably lower than in water, despite scattering strength being higher in water.
