  • This study projects heat-related mortality in Europe across various adaptation scenarios by modelling humid and compound day-night heat, using a health-based heat definition. Without heat adaptation, mortality could rise by 103.7–135.1 deaths per million people per 1 °C of global warming.

  • China maintained a ‘zero-COVID’ policy from early in the pandemic until late 2022 that employed various public health interventions with the aim of COVID-19 containment. Here, the authors use data from 131 outbreaks in China to estimate the effects of a range of interventions against different SARS-CoV-2 variants in diverse settings.

  • Non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) and COVID-19 vaccination have been implemented concurrently, making their relative effects difficult to measure. Here, the authors show that effects of NPIs reduced as vaccine coverage increased, but that NPIs could still be important in the context of more transmissible variants.

  • Xu et al. report reconfigurable phototransistors based on MAPbI3/Bi2O2Se heterostructure, with momentum conservation promotes hot carrier extraction and interlayer carrier transport. Heterotransistor array enables traffic light signal detection under dim light, assisted by YOLOv4 neural network.

  • In an inter-laboratory study, the authors compare the accuracy and performance of three optical density calibration protocols (colloidal silica, serial dilution of silica microspheres, and colony-forming unit (CFU) assay). They demonstrate that serial dilution of silica microspheres is the best of these tested protocols, allowing precise and robust calibration that is easily assessed for quality control and can also evaluate the effective linear range of an instrument.
