Summary: The study found that the mixture of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can enhance the growth and enzymatic activity of basil plants under salt stress. AMF can increase the leaf number and antioxidant enzyme activity of basil, while reducing the loss of chlorophyll caused by salt stress. Multivariate analyses revealed the significant impact of AMF inoculation on basil yield and enzymatic activity. Therefore, AMF has potential applications in mitigating plant growth issues under salt stress.

Summary: The gender specificity of clinical and psychopathological features of schizophrenia is important. Researchers are particularly interested in the gender features of cognitive deficit, functional disorder, and structural disorder in schizophrenia. Oxidative stress is considered one of the potential pathogenetic factors associated with gender in schizophrenia. However, there are currently very few studies on gender differences in redox imbalance severity in schizophrenia patients. The aim of this study was to explore the gender specificity of oxidative stress severity in schizophrenia patients and its association with neurocognitive deficit.

Summary: This study examined the changes in ventilatory function tests and oxidative stress biomarkers among silica-exposed foundry workers. The results showed that the exposed group had lower ventilatory functions and higher levels of urinary silica, serum malondialdehyde (MDA), and serum 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-HdG), as well as lower levels of serum glutathione peroxidase (GPx). All these parameters were correlated with urinary silica. The subgroup of exposed workers with silicosis had longer work duration and higher levels of urinary silica, serum MDA, and serum 8-HdG, as well as lower levels of serum GPx and ventilatory functions compared to the non-silicotic subgroup.

Summary: This study explores the contribution of Blockchain Technology in managing disruptions caused by COVID-19 and supporting resilient Food Supply Chains. Using a combination of FAHP and WASPAS, the study evaluates factors related to sourcing, lean, workforce, and flexibility, as well as the effectiveness of BC-T enabled resilient strategies in mitigating disruptions during the pandemic. The findings suggest that 'sourcing related' is the most significant disruptive factor in FSCs, and 'flexibility resilient strategy' is the most relevant strategy for BC-T enabled FSCs.

Summary: The study aims to investigate the impact of green logistics on the adoption of Circular Economy (CE) in the era of Industry 4.0 (I4.0). By implementing green initiatives, the logistics sector shows its strong concern for environmental issues and promotes sustainable logistics and circular practices to address critical issues such as waste generation, resource scarcity, renewable resource use, and climate change. The study examines the relationships between green logistics practices, I4.0 technologies, and CE adoption while also considering the moderating effects of institutional pressure and supply chain flexibility. The findings suggest that firms can enhance CE adoption driven by I4.0 technologies with green logistics practices as a mediator, and the moderating effect of supply chain flexibility is significant while the moderating effect of institutional pressure is insignificant. The study provides valuable insights for managers and contributes to the theoretical understanding of green logistics and CE adoption.

Summary: Social media has become a major source of information for young users, but it has a severe impact on mental state due to information overload, which is still a concern for researchers. The addiction of Generation Z users to mobile phones/gadgets is increasing with the rise of social media, leading to a complete transformation in their behavioral outcomes. Behavioral issues such as stress, fatigue, fear of missing out, phubbing, and anxiety are on the rise, but the relationship between these issues and information overload has not been sufficiently examined. The study finds that social media platforms need to understand users' compulsive usage, which results in fatigue and anxiety, and government information support plays a positive role in reducing fatigue and anxiety.
