Summary: The study focuses on fine-tuning the morphology of dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (DMSNs) and successfully demonstrates the independent tuning of particle and pore sizes. The unique morphological features influencing guest molecule interactions were uncovered through detailed analysis.

Summary: Strategic innovations arise from an iterative learning process that begins with a comprehensive, market-oriented search for attractive growth opportunities. This approach involves reimagining and expanding all aspects of the customer value proposition and business model, which together form a firm's strategy. This market-oriented approach encompasses both market-driven and market-driving distinctions. Both approaches necessitate deep understanding of latent needs and unresolved issues of existing and potential customers, as well as well-informed anticipation of competitive actions and reactions.

Summary: This study compares the outcomes of COVID-19 in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) in Italy with the expected outcomes in the general population. The risk of severe events, including hospitalization, ICU admission, and death, was found to be twice as high in the MS cohort compared to the age- and sex-matched Italian population. The increased risk was primarily associated with disease severity and comorbidities, but there was also a higher risk of hospitalization in patients on anti-CD20 therapies and a lower risk in patients on interferon.

Summary: In this study, the magnesiation mechanism of Sn nanoparticles was demonstrated using liquid-phase electron microscopy. It was found that the diffusion of Mg ions into Sn is slow and involves the formation of an intermediate metastable phase and an equilibrium phase. The large stress at the interface between Sn and MgxSn leads to the formation of amorphous Mg2+xSn with overinsertion of Mg2+. The formation of Mg(OH)2 on MgxSn impedes the insertion of Mg2+ into Sn, resulting in rapid capacity fading of a Mg-Sn cell.

Summary: A better understanding of cell-cell and cell-niche interactions is crucial in understanding complex inflammatory or pathological scenarios. Optical clearing and 3D volumetric imaging techniques offer great potential for in-depth study of cells in their natural environments. Recent advancements focus on studying immune cells in their respective immune niches, indicating promising applications for tissue clearing and proposing future developments for analyzing immune cells in different immune environments.

Summary: With the development of atomic resolution transmission electron microscopy (AR-TEM), chemists can visually study the temporal evolution of molecular motions and reactions at the atomic level. However, experimental TEM images often differ from conventional molecular models, making them difficult to interpret. By introducing correlated atomic radii models, researchers can more easily estimate molecular structures from TEM images.

Summary: The study suggests that different facets of media context have varying impacts on consumers' attitudes and purchase intentions. Factors such as felt involvement with media, transportation, and perceived trust/credibility of media vehicles have a stronger influence on attitudes and purchase intentions.

Summary: Recent research has focused on twisting the angle between van der Waals stacked 2D layers to tune the physical properties of materials. Through advanced imaging techniques and theoretical calculations, new insights have been gained into the unique moire features and periodic lattice strain in commensurately twisted transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) bilayers. These findings suggest that stacked variants in twisted bilayer systems exhibit similar electronic structures, indicating invariance against interlayer gliding.

Summary: This study proposes a generic approach to extend microscopic traffic models to capture the impacts of road geometry on the driving behaviors of low-level automated vehicles. The developed nonlinear vehicle dynamics and radius difference method can effectively increase model accuracy. When simulating reckless turning behaviors, utilizing both of these extensions results in the largest accuracy gains.

Summary: This article discusses the positioning of Inference to the Best Explanation (IBE), arguing against situating it in the context of pursuit, as recent developments do not make a strong case for it. While Peircean abduction plays a role in pursuit, IBE is not a mere renaming of abduction. Considerations regarding the compatibility between IBE and Bayesianism also do not provide strong grounds for locating IBE outside the context of justification.

Summary: This review focuses on the Dark Emu debate, summarizing Bruce Pascoe's original work and Peter Sutton and Keryn Walshe's critique. It argues that debates on plant exploitation practices in Australia have been hindered by a lack of terminological clarity, a methodological framework, and relevant data. The article proposes a terminology and methodological framework for assessing both recent and ancient forms of food plant exploitation in Australia. These frameworks are then applied to specific scenarios for analysis.
