Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Knowledge and Process Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines the extent to which intellectual capital (IC) supports firms' value generation and financial resilience, and how these effects are conditioned by profitability. IC is quantified using the “modified value‐added intellectual coefficient (MVAIC)” for a panel of 103 manufacturing firms listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange over

Design and Development of Novel Airway Device for Transoral Respiratory Monitoring During Sedation
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This article describes iterative design factors and results of clinical testing for a novel medical device that promotes transoral respiratory gas exchange for patients during sedation. A minimally viable prototype was 3D printed from thermoplastic polyurethane and demonstrated high levels of oral retention, gas exchange, and satisfaction among ...

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Promoting the green transition of farmland use (GTFU) in major grain‐producing areas is essential for ensuring food security and advancing sustainable agricultural development. However, existing studies on GTFU have predominantly relied on static cross‐sectional analyses, with insufficient attention paid to its nonlinear driving mechanisms. To

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) filaments are fabricated through extrusion with in‐process UV curing, enabling controlled flow alignment and network locking of mesogens. The resulting structure responds to thermal or optical stimuli, inducing molecular reorientation and macroscopic contraction.
