From Nature to Supply Chain: Exploring Biomimicry‐Based Pathways to Sustainability and Competitive Advantage

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inspired by insights gleaned from biomimicry theory, this paper addresses the persistent lack of theoretically grounded research in sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) and examines how nature‐inspired biomimicry principles could enhance various dimensions of its competitiveness. This study's theoretical contribution lies in its proposal

Inclusive Leadership and CEO Gender: The Role of Tenure and Education in an Emerging Economy

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gender inequality in corporate leadership remains a critical challenge, particularly in emerging economies where institutional constraints shape access to top executive positions. This study examines firm performance differences between women and men CEOs in Ecuador, focusing on the moderating roles of tenure and formal education.

Insights into Degradation Mechanisms and Optimization Strategies for High‐Voltage High‐Ni Cathode Materials

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This review comprehensively unravels the atomic‐scale degradation mechanisms of high‐voltage high‐nickel cathodes, highlighting the critical O3 to O1 phase transition and chemo‐mechanical failures. By correlating synthetic modulations with structural stability, it critically evaluates advanced optimization strategies, including single‐crystallization ...

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Whole‐House Thermal Bridge Modelling for Accurate Retrofit Energy Prediction

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study models thermal bridging in a UK semi‐detached house across pre‐ and post‐retrofit scenarios using piecemeal and whole‐house approaches with EWI and IWI. Whole‐house retrofits reduce heat transfer coefficient by 60%; findings demonstrate that default values are often unrepresentative and advocate tailored Ψ value databases.

Effect of Pretreatment Methods on the Proximate Composition, Antinutritional Factors, Antioxidants Properties, and In Vitro Antidiabetic Activities of Hypsizygus ulmarius

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
The effect of pretreatment methods on the proximate content, antinutrient factors, antioxidant, and in vitro antidiabetic activities of elm oyster mushroom was studied. It was observed and statistically concluded that soaking in 0.5% salt solution for 5 min had the least deteriorating effect on the antioxidant and in vitro antidiabetic activities ...

Can killing individual wild animals directly protect their population?

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Ongoing extinctions are often accelerated by humans intentionally killing nonhumans. Commonly in Western conservation thinking, killing is seen as a strategy to prevent extinction. The hypothesis that killing one animal can protect the survivors of the same species (conspecifics) requires a direct cause‐and‐effect mechanism between the death of the ...

Chemistry Underlying the Behavior of Food and Agricultural Components During Industrial Manufacturing Processes and Its Implications in Quality Assurance, Food Quality, and Food Safety Management: A Systematic Review

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Industrial manufacturing processes have transformative effects on the components of food matrix. These transformations in food matrix and components have direct implications for quality assurance (QA), food quality (e.g., nutritional profile and texture), and food safety management (e.g., pathogen control and toxin mitigation). ABSTRACT This systematic

Beyond Prediction: Data, Baselines, Explanation, and Causation in Machine Learning for Food Insecurity

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
The gains from machine learning in nowcasting and forecasting food insecurity are still small and limited and cannot be observed in all countries. This review summarizes the public resources for data, corrects common misconceptions about model requirements, and establishes baseline requirements, explanations, causal inference, and equity in operational
