Article Abstract
With the proposal of sustainable development strategy, bio-based energy storage transparent wood (TW) has shown broad application value in green buildings, cold chain transportation, and optoelectronic device fields. However, its application in most fields is limited due to its own flammability. In this study, epoxy resin, triethyl phosphate (TEP) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) were introduced into delignified balsa wood template by vacuum pressure impregnation, and bio-based TW/PEG/TEP integrating flame retardant, high strength and phase-change energy-storage performance was prepared. TW/PEG composites have no leakage during phase change process and their transparency is up to 95 %. Compared with TW/PEG, the shielding effect of char layer and the inhibition effect in condensed and gas phase significantly decrease the total heat release of TW/PEG/TEP. TW/PEG/TEP biocomposites still maintained a high enthalpy of phase change and a low peak melting temperature, which was conducive to its application around the area of low temperature phase change energy storage. In addition, the tensile strength of TW/PEG/TEP was nearly 4 times higher than that of DW, and its toughness was obviously enhanced. TW/PEG/TEP biocomposites conformed to the current concept of energy-saving and green development. It has the potential to replace traditional petrochemical-based materials and shows excellent application prospects in emerging fields.

Droughts are increasing with climate change, affecting the functioning of terrestrial ecosystems and limiting their capacity to mitigate rising atmospheric CO levels. However, there is still large uncertainty on the long-term impacts of drought on ecosystem carbon (C) cycling, and how this determines the effect of subsequent droughts. Here, we aimed to quantify how drought legacy affects the response of a heathland ecosystem to a subsequent drought for two life stages of Calluna vulgaris resulting from different mowing regimes.

Cell senescence is a state of stable proliferation arrest characterized by morphological changes and high senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity. Inducing senescence in cancer cells is beneficial for cancer therapy due to proliferation arrest, however, the mechanisms underlying this process remain insufficiently understood. Therefore, the present study investigated the mechanisms of radiation-induced cellular senescence in A549 human lung cancer cells, focusing on the DNA damage response and cell cycle regulation.

Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is an endogenous bone tissue engineering technique that harnesses the regenerative potential of bone and has been widely applied in limb lengthening, bone defect repair, and craniofacial reconstruction. The DO procedure consists of three distinct phases: the latency phase, the distraction phase, and the consolidation phase, each characterized by unique biological processes. In recent years, increasing attention has been directed toward the role of the immune system during DO.

Purpose: To evaluate the impact of an optimized online adaptive radiation therapy workflow on physician involvement.
Methods And Materials: Data from a prospective phase 2 trial involving 34 prostate cancer patients treated with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)-based online adaptive radiation therapy (62 Gy in 20 fractions) were analyzed. Manual interventions were required for 2 steps in the workflow: radiation therapy technologist review and adjustment of automatically segmented organs, guiding target segmentation, so-called "influencer," while physicians reviewed and refined the targets.
