Protein Nutrition71IMPACT SIGNAL
Expert critical assessment

Experts pressure-tested common protein claims and found many still under-supported

A February 2025 Indiana University workshop asked over twenty international experts to pressure-test propositions about dietary protein: methodological limitations, ‘optimal’ intake for muscle synthesis, accretion, growth and repair, needs during weight loss, anabolic thresholds and potentially harmful high intakes. Experts rated evidence from strong support to sufficient to rule out. Most propositions required more research because studies lacked rigor, sample size, duration or relied on surrogate outcomes.

Systematic modeling review

Asian energy models focus on electricity while underrepresenting long storage, demand and just transition

A systematic review of 97 South and Southeast Asian energy-system modeling studies mapped sectors, time, space, technologies, tools and alignment with national targets. Models overwhelmingly focused on electricity and solar, wind, hydro and biomass. Long-duration storage, carbon removal, demand flexibility, cross-border trade, socioeconomic co-benefits and just-transition metrics were rare. National long-term scales limited subnational and near-term use. India, Indonesia and Vietnam led, while Brunei, Cambodia, Myanmar and Sri Lanka lacked comparable coverage.

Field-calibrated simulation evidence

Climate projections suggest shallower wetting in expansive soils and shorter design piers through 2100

Expansive soils shrink and swell with moisture. A finite-element long-term water-migration model was calibrated with laboratory and TRACON building field data at Denver International Airport, then applied to Colorado Front Range profiles through 2100 under SSP1-2.6 and SSP5-8.5. Compared with a traditional climate approach, wetting depth was 4% shallower in shallow clay and 8% in deep clay. Depths were similar between scenarios, but SSP5-8.5 had lower saturation. Air temperature dominated rainfall. Climate-adjusted profiles reduced pier length 3-6% with rigid and 5-12% with elastic design.

Survey structural-model evidence

AI personalization may increase travel-platform use despite continuing autonomy and privacy concerns

Using SOR and Psychological Reactance Theory, the study proposes a Threat-Substitution Mechanism for high-involvement online travel decisions. PLS-SEM on 488 Chinese Gen Y/Z OTA users found AI personalization increased usage intention and reduced reactance, with partial mediation. Privacy concern strengthened the negative AIP-reactance relationship, interpreted as heightened threat-appraisal sensitivity rather than uniform resistance.

Influenza and Antiviral Trials71IMPACT SIGNAL
Prospective kinetics and simulation evidence

Thai adult data estimate a 10.3-hour influenza clearance half-life to guide antiviral trials

Eighty untreated low-risk Thai adults with acute influenza provided duplicate daily oropharyngeal swabs for 14 days with qPCR viral density. Growth-and-decay fit best, while exponential decay was most parsimonious. Median half-life was 10.3 hours: 9.6 for influenza A and 14.0 for B. Simulations suggested 148 per arm gives over 90% power to detect 40% faster clearance; more variability raises sample needs, while four swabs per day could reduce them to 81 per arm at over 80% power.

Blue Carbon and Coastal Communities71IMPACT SIGNAL
International research agenda

The next blue-carbon agenda prioritizes coastal communities, equity and credible carbon accounting

Seven years after the previous global assessment, a new priority-setting exercise covered classical mangroves, marshes and seagrasses and expanded systems such as tidal flats, macroalgal forests and shelf sediments. The highest priority was management that supports coastal communities and integrates traditional ecological knowledge, treating legitimacy and equity as prerequisites for durable outcomes. Other priorities covered cost-effective restoration, greenhouse-gas flux accuracy, human impacts on carbon cycling, biodiversity and coastal-protection co-benefits, and remote sensing, ML and data sharing.

Focused technology review

Epitope-imprinted polymers offer synthetic receptors for bacterial detection without conventional antibodies

Epitope-imprinted polymers use short surface peptides as templates to create robust, accessible synthetic recognition cavities instead of imprinting whole bacteria or proteins. The review covers rational and computational epitope selection, monomers, bulk, surface, nanoMIP and electropolymerization, template removal and examples targeting M. leprae, S. Typhi and N. meningitidis with electrochemical and piezoelectric transducers. Detection limits, imprinting factors and matrix selectivity are discussed alongside AI-assisted, multiepitope, nanomaterial and portable POC strategies.

Machine Learning for Materials71IMPACT SIGNAL
Recent advances review

Machine learning can reduce composite experiments, but small and inconsistent datasets limit prediction

The review examines ML prediction of mechanical and tribological properties in fiber-reinforced epoxy, polyester and vinyl-ester composites with silica, graphene, CNT and nanoclay fillers. Studies from 2020-2025 use ANN, SVM, random forests and Gaussian processes for wear, tensile and flexural strength and stress-strain behavior. ML may reduce experiments and aid optimization, but datasets are small, features and units vary and models often fail across systems. Multi-fidelity and physics-informed ML, open databases and standards are proposed.

Structural and mechanistic evidence

A conserved PTRAMP-CSS-Ripr complex helps multiple malaria parasites invade red blood cells

Red-cell invasion is essential to malaria. P. falciparum uses a PCRCR complex, but Rh5 is species restricted. Orthologs of PTRAMP, CSS and Ripr from P. falciparum, P. vivax and P. knowlesi formed disulfide-linked PTRAMP-CSS heterodimers and bound the Ripr C terminus as a conserved PCR complex. Cross-reactive antibodies differentially inhibited invasion, crystallography revealed an inhibitory PvRipr epitope, and P. knowlesi cryo-EM confirmed a conserved invasion scaffold.

Cross-sectional mediation evidence

Cancer financial toxicity is linked to lower life satisfaction, with hope and support as potential buffers

Baseline ENRICh-II data covered 519 adults diagnosed within the prior year across six ambulatory oncology clinics. Mean age was 52 and 67.2% were women. Financial toxicity, life satisfaction, state hope and social support were measured. Greater toxicity correlated with lower satisfaction (r=-0.34). Hope and support statistically partially mediated the association, with indirect effects of -0.08 and -0.03, also across material, coping and distress domains. The authors propose psychosocial resilience alongside financial assistance.

International priority-setting consensus

Fifty-one experts prioritized outbreak warning and diagnostic equity for global-health AI

An international CHNRI exercise asked 51 experts to score 155 research ideas on feasibility, disease-burden impact, paradigm-shift potential, implementation and equity. Highest priorities included outbreak prediction, infectious-disease diagnostics and early warnings, followed by resource allocation, telemedicine, culturally adapted mobile health and chronic-disease tools. LMIC experts emphasized infectious-disease control and diagnostic equity, while high-income experts emphasized infrastructure and climate analytics, showing why affected regions need decision power.

Device prototype and long-cycle evidence

Macadamia shells became porous-carbon supercapacitor electrodes stable over 10,000 cycles

Macadamia shells were carbonized at 600°C and KOH-activated at 800°C with carbon:KOH ratios of 1:1 to 1:3. Activation raised surface area from 325 to 1,362 m2/g, producing mainly micropores with partial mesoporosity. The 1:3 material reached 170 F/g at 1 A/g in three-electrode 6 M KOH and behaved mainly as an electric double-layer capacitor. A symmetric coin cell delivered 5.4 Wh/kg and 2,500 W/kg and remained stable for 10,000 cycles at 3 A/g.
