Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, and ESG Disclosure Quality: The Moderating Roles of Financial Regulation and Stakeholder Engagement

Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) disclosure quality remains constrained by fragmented data, limited verifiability, and inconsistent reporting practices. This study examines whether artificial intelligence and blockchain are associated with perceived ESG disclosure qual...

Phrenic nerve considerations in continuous brachial plexus blocks for shoulder surgery

We read with interest the systematic review and meta-analysis by Chong et al., which showed patient-reported benefits of continuous compared with single-injection brachial plexus blocks after shoulder surgery [1]. The review is valuable because it moves the discussion beyond tech...

Resonance-Assisted Depinning of DMI-Stabilized Néel Domain Walls in Stepped Perpendicular Magnetic Nanowires Driven by Pulsed Currents

Current-driven manipulation of magnetic domain walls (DWs) in perpendicularly magnetized nanowires is promising for spintronic memory and logic applications. In this work, micromagnetic simulations are used to investigate the depinning of DMI-stabilized Néel domain walls from a s...

EDDE-MT-Based Detection-Record Integrity and DV-QKD with Side-Channel Monitoring Using DVQMTC and E-TeLU-Bi-LSTM for Securing CPS

Discrete-Variable Quantum Key Distribution (DV-QKD) provides a mechanism for establishing secret keys between legitimate parties using quantum-state transmission and authenticated classical post-processing. In this work, the underlying quantum layer follows a biased-basis decoy-s...

Impact of Nutritional and Organoleptic Use of Underutilized Green Leafy Vegetables in Bakery Products: A Systematic Review of Novel Food Applications.

Background The low utilization of green leafy vegetables (GLVs) makes them a nutrient-dense food that is frequently overlooked in the food system. Their integration into baked products may confer nutritional and organizational benefits. However, few studies have addressed their i...

Experimental investigation on the strength and durability behaviour of high-strength nano silica concrete with eggshell powder

This study investigates the combined effects of treated eggshell powder (ESP) and nano silica (NS) on the fresh, mechanical, durability, sustainability, and economic performance of M60 HSC. A constant replacement of 5% cement with ESP was adopted, while NS was incorporated at 0,...
