Nigeria’s networked public sphere: a double-edged sword for democracy and terrorism

While social media has empowered pro-democracy activists around the world, terrorist organizations are increasingly using it to undermine democracy because both supporters and opponents of democracy are able to freely exploit online platforms in pursuit of their objectives. This...

Time series one class classification: a systematic review of methods, applications, and challenges

Time series one-class classification (TS-OCC) has become an important machine learning paradigm for detecting anomalies and verifying patterns in domains where abnormal data are scarce or difficult to label, such as precision manufacturing, healthcare monitoring, finance, and cyb...

Television discourse and the cultural politics of rural transformation in Jordan: Memory, rurality, and dispossession in Umm Al-Karoum

This article examines the Jordanian television serial Umm al-Karoum (Jordan Television, Citation1999), a 15-episode drama produced in 1999 but set during the social and economic transformations of rural Jordan in the 1970s and 1980s. Rather than treating the serial as rural evide...

Revolutionizing sustainability of agroecosystems using nano-biochar solutions: Agricultural and environmental perspectives

Abstract Background : Achieving sustainability of agroecosystems in the face of increasing environmental challenges and diminishing natural resources demands innovative and multifunctional materials. Carbon capture from biomass residue is a promising approach and represents a cli...

Substrate-dependent performance patterns in nanocoatings across interior materials

Nanostructured coatings are widely used to enhance surface durability while preserving visual appearance, yet it remains unclear whether performance is primarily governed by coating chemistry or by the underlying substrate. Here, we address this question through a structured scop...

β-carotene enhances drought tolerance in fenugreek by modulating antioxidant defense and redox homeostasis

Drought stress is one of the main abiotic factors that modulates the morphology and physiology of crops. This study investigated the effect of foliar application of β-carotene on the growth, physiological, and biochemical responses of fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) unde...

Cohen standard setting yields cutoffs and pass rates comparable to Angoff: a retrospective comparison of MCQ assessments in an MD program

Standard setting determines the score threshold at which a learner is judged competent. Angoff is a criterion-referenced method based on expert judgements about a minimally competent candidate. Cohen-based methods are simpler and operationally less demanding, albeit norm-referenc...

A Novel Strategy for Developing Engineered Cementitious Composites: Synergistic Incorporation of Volcanic Materials and PE-PVA Fibers

Engineered cementitious composites (ECC) are primarily designed to enhance ductility, achieving strain-hardening behavior and controlled micro-cracking. Key constituents typically include cement, fine aggregates, fly ash, and polymeric fibers. This study aims to replace conventio...

A systematic and bibliometric review of green human resource management

This study is a rigorous systematic-bibliometric review of the existing literature on green human resource management (GHRM). A total of 350 scholarly articles published between 2017 and 2025 were retrieved from the Scopus database and analysed. Using VOSviewer, the authors perfo...

Protective effect of lycopene against sodium nitroprusside-induced oxidative stress in Artemia salina

Lycopene is a carotenoid with potent antioxidant properties, that is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries, thereby increasing the likelihood of its release into aquatic environments through industrial effluents. Artemia salina is a well-established eco...

Co-Encapsulation and In Vitro Gastrointestinal Release of Gallic Acid and Curcumin: A Comparison between Double Emulsions and Templated Core-Laden Bubble Systems

Abstract This study examines how the intermediate phase in hierarchical colloidal carriers influences the co-encapsulation and in vitro gastrointestinal release of hydrophilic gallic acid and hydrophobic curcumin, using double emulsions (DE; W1/O/W2) and templated core-laden bubb...

Facile synthesis of black phosphorus nanoflakes by hydrothermal method for hydrogen sensing application

This article presents a direct method of producing Black Phosphorus (BP) from red phosphorus through hydrothermal aqueous method by using Ethylene Diamine and De-Ionized water, followed by fabricating a BP-based gas sensor. This work presents a low-temperature, low-cost synthesis...

36Cl concentrations from polar ice cores set new constraints on the Carrington event.

The Carrington event of 1859 CE is considered one of the largest geomagnetic storms of the observational era and often used as a benchmark for a worst-case scenario. Yet, there exists no robust evidence of an associated solar energetic particle (SEP) event of a significant magnit...

Data-Driven Approach for Bioreactor Monitoring and Prediction in Monoclonal Antibody Production

Abstract The upstream biopharmaceutical processes of monoclonal antibody (mAb) production generate high-dimensional and irregularly sampled time-series data with many missing values, which can limit the robustness and reusability of data-driven models. In this study, a data-drive...

Engineering serpentinite-derived materials for sustainable water remediation: activation pathways, surface engineering, and adsorption–photocatalytic applications—a review

The growing deterioration of water quality caused by emerging contaminants has intensified the search for efficient, low-cost, and sustainable remediation materials. Among natural mineral resources, serpentinite has attracted increasing attention because of its abundance, Mg-rich...

Petrogenesis of El-Aradyia late-Ediacaran fluorite-bearing granites, Central Eastern Desert of Egypt

El-Aradyia fluorite-bearing granites (EFBGs) are exposed in the Central Eastern Desert of Egypt. EFBGs have a range of composition from syenogranite to alkali-feldspar granites. They display ferroan, high-K calc-alkaline and weakly peraluminous granites characters. Based on their...

Cancer care in Pakistan: a national survey of infrastructure, diagnostic capacity, therapeutic access, and workforce perspectives

Pakistan, a lower-middle-income country of some 241 million people, faces a rising cancer burden — an estimated 185,748 new cancer cases and 118,631 cancer deaths in 2022 — that is served by a heterogeneous and largely uncoordinated mix of public, private for-profit, philanthropi...

Alloyed Versus Physically Mixed Bimetallic Nanoparticle PLA Composites: Structure and Antimicrobial Performance

ABSTRACT In this work, polylactic acid (PLA) based nanocomposites containing bimetallic nanoparticle systems were made using the injection molding method to compare the antimicrobial behavior of alloyed nanoparticles and those physically mixed to be used in biomedical and environ...
