Abstract In alignment with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, this study develops a context-sensitive sustainability framework tailored to the unique environmental and cultural characteristics of mountainous parks. Raghadan Forest Park in the Al-Baha region serves as a representative ca...

Insecticidal activity of Metarhizium anisopliae-mediated nanoparticles and fungal metabolites against the red palm weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus

Abstract This study evaluated the insecticidal activity of green-synthesized metallic nanoparticles (Ag, CuO, and ZnO) and the ethanolic extract of Metarhizium anisopliae against the red palm weevil ( Rhynchophorus ferrugineus ). Physicochemical characterization confirmed the suc...

Fault ride-through and grid disturbance mitigation for the stability of grid-connected floating offshore wind energy conversion systems

Ensuring the stability of grid-connected floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) under grid disturbances, such as voltage sags, frequency deviations, and fault ride-through (FRT) events, is challenging, particularly when electrical measurements are transmitted over long-distance...

Latest advancements in nanofiber fabrication and drug delivery, pondering tissue‐engineered scaffolds: current status and future challenges

Abstract Transformative platforms in the pharmaceutical sciences include nanofiber‐based drug delivery systems, engineered to overcome the limitations of conventional methods. Their remarkable properties, such as high surface area, tunable porosity and biomimetic architecture, ma...

Association of organisational culture and internal participation with job satisfaction among physiotherapists: a cross-sectional study

Abstract This cross-sectional study aimed to examine the independent and combined relationships of organisational culture and internal participation with job satisfaction of physiotherapists. Data was collected through an online survey of licenced physiotherapists in Saudi Arabia...

A Feature‐Enhanced Artificial Neural Network‐Assisted Adaptive Truncated EWMA Control Chart for Robust Monitoring of Contaminated Processes

ABSTRACT The use of conventional memory‐type control charts can be significantly hindered by the presence of outliers and contaminated observations, as these can lead to excessive false alarms and be difficult to detect true process shifts. To tackle the aforementioned problems,...

NiO‐Decorated Activated Carbon for Selective and High‐Performance Pb(II) Adsorption

ABSTRACT Lead contamination in water systems poses a serious environmental and public health concern, necessitating the development of efficient and selective adsorbents. In this study, a NiO‐decorated activated carbon (NiO@AC) nanocomposite was synthesized via chemical activatio...

Synthesis of polyhydroquinoline derivatives as potent antidiabetic and antioxidant agents: in vitro biological activities and computational studies

Aims Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a severe metabolic disease characterized by increased blood glucose levels due to reduced insulin action or secretion. This study aimed to synthesize new polyhydroquinoline (PHQ)-based acyl hydrazide derivatives and assess their potential as dual in...

Clinical practice variation in chronic spine pain care: A multispecialty study

Objectives: Chronic spine pain is a highly prevalent condition that requires coordinated, guideline-concordant care integrating pharmacological management, psychosocial assessment, and appropriate diagnostic evaluation. However, variations in clinical practice across physician sp...
