Efficacy and Safety of Topical Application of Plant-Based Products on Skin Aging in Healthy Individuals: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

Background: Recently, numerous topical products containing plant-based ingredients have been reported to resist skin aging. However, there is a lack of sufficient evidence to substantiate these claims. This paper presents a comprehensive review and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical products containing plants or plant extracts in anti-aging.

Preparation of Carbon Aerogel Electrode for Electrosorption of Copper Ions in Aqueous Solution.

Carbon aerogel (CA) has a rich porous structure, in which micropores and mesopores provide a huge specific surface area to form electric double layers. This property can be applied to the application of capacitive deionization (CDI). The adsorption effect of CA electrode on Cu in an aqueous solution was explored for solving heavy metal water pollution.
