Energy and AI, Volume 11, January 2023
This article supports SDGs 7,9 and 11 by proposing that the real-time online analysis, data integration, and prediction of future status, monitoring, decision-making, and self-healing of the power grid can be achieved, providing high security, reducing the risk of power grid accidents, and serving multiple fields of producers, consumers, and the entire country.

Due to multiple cellular blocks in transcription, HIV-1 latency can only be reversed in a minor fraction of infected but potentially virus-producing CD4+ T cells from infected patients. New insights into the regulation of transcription elongation factor P-TEFb as a crucial rate-limiting step in the emergence of HIV-1 from latency may help design more effective latency reversal agents during HIV-1 infection.

Background: In patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), thoracic morphology and its role in respiratory function is conditioned by anthropometric factors, as well as by pathological changes. While the lungs are continuously monitored, examinations of potential thoracic cage adaptations to the disease are rare. Hence, the aim of this study was to investigate thoracic configuration, and its correlation to spirometry measures over time. Methods: In total, 344 high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) examinations from 90 patients were assessed and analysed. Those results were subsequently related to spirometry measurements performed within the same period. Results: The cohort displayed no homogenous change in thoracic configuration over time, and correlation between thoracic area and spirometry variables could not be supported statistically. Conclusions: Although the current study included a larger cohort of patients with CF compared to previous studies on thoracic morphology, no patient group-specific changes in thoracic configuration were revealed. Furthermore, no correlations between structural findings and functional respiratory measurements were found.

Sustainable Chemistry for Climate Action, Volume 2, January 2023
The article is related to SDG 13 and investigates the use of carbon neutral sources, such as biowaste, in the conversion to biooil. Catalytic liquefaction of various organic waste (mandarin peel, coffee grounds and cocoa shell) to synthesize an oil which can be used as a sustainable fuel is described.

A rapid switch from non-renewable carbon-based sources of energy to clean and low-carbon sources of energy is required to accomplish ambitious carbon neutrality goals. The prospects of hydrogen in achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 are promising, but the article describes the challenges and uncertainties that need to be addressed.
