Multiproxy analysis exploring patterns of diet and disease in dental calculus and skeletal remains from a 19th century Dutch population by Bartholdy, Bjørn Peare, Hasselstrøm, Jørgen B., Sørensen, Lambert K., Casna, Maia, Hoogland, Menno, Historisch Genootschap Beemster, Henry, Amanda G.

“…There is some influence of skeletal preservation on the detection of alkaloids, with higher quantities of compounds extracted from well-preserved individuals, and we observe a positive relationship between weight of the calculus sample and quantity of detected compounds, as well as between chronic maxillary sinusitis and the presence of multiple alkaloids. There are many limitations that will need to be addressed going forward with this type of analysis; we stress the need for more systematic research on the consumption of alkaloid-containing items and their subsequent concentration and preservation in dental calculus, in addition to how mode of consumption may affect concentrations in the dentition. …”

Quantitative Characterization of Pore Connectivity and Movable Fluid Distribution of Tight Sandstones: A Case Study of the Upper Triassic Chang 7 Member, Yanchang Formation in Ordo... by Boli Wang, Xisen Zhao, Wen Zhou, Bin Chang, Hao Xu

“…The pore connectivity and distribution of moveable fluids, which determines fluid movability and recoverable reserves, are critical for enhancing oil/gas recovery in tight sandstone reservoirs. In this paper, multiple techniques including high-pressure mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and microcomputer tomography scanning (micro-CT) were used for the quantitative characterization of pore structure, pore connectivity, and movable fluid distribution. …”

Enhancing Spatial Allocation of Pediatric Medical Facilities for Reduced Travel-Related CO₂ Emissions: A Case Study in Tianjin, China by Hongjie Dong, He Zhang, Rui Wang, Yutong Zhang, Yuxue Zhang, Lisha Zhang

“…The results show that (1) travel-related CO₂ emissions for pediatric medical-seeking are the highest in the city center, outpatient-related CO₂ emissions surpass inpatient ones, and children’s hospital-related CO₂ emissions are higher than those related to comprehensive hospitals, from which potential carbon reduction points can be explored; (2) children’s hospitals with multibranch and composite functional allocations can significantly reduce CO₂ emissions; (3) comprehensive hospitals can further alleviate CO₂ emissions from children’s hospitals by enhancing the medical level, transportation infrastructure, population distribution, and other spatial environmental factors; (4) from the perspective of low-carbon travel and equity, a spatial allocation strategy should be adopted for children’s hospitals that includes multiple branches and composite functions, while comprehensive hospitals should focus on service capacity, parity, supply–demand ratio, and the population density of children.…”
