This study investigates the feasibility of using long-range radio communication in a busy city environment in order to begin better understanding how the Internet of Things might be implemented into smart cities.

Here the authors evaluate the relationship between state-level abortion policies and maternal mortality across the United States from 2018 to 2021.

The authors looked at the effects of different treatments using flies with neurodevelopmental disorders.

The authors looked at how nanosilver particles may negatively impact the pond water environment. They used D. magna as an indicator species to look at the impact of different concentrations of nanosilver particles.

The study explored converting Gracilaria seaweed waste—known for releasing toxic hydrogen sulfide when decomposed—into biochar as a sustainable solution for waste management and soil improvement.

The authors looked at the ability of berberine in combination with melatonin to have anticancer effects when tested in an in vitro cell model.

The authors examined the effect of varying glucose concentrations on cut rose longevity.

The authors assess incidence and mortality rates of two cancer types in relation to trihalomethane pollutant concentrations in drinking water.

The authors looked at the ability to use graphite from pencils in anodes of lithium-anode batteries.
