This study investigates the relationship between the length of time board members serve and the financial performance (FP) of Malaysia's top 500 public listed companies (PLCs). The research uses data from annual reports, secretarial data, and financial statements to analyse the correlation between board tenure (BTEN) and FP. The study found a mean of 8.18 years in BTEN but found no impact on FP. The findings will enhance understanding of corporate governance (CG) and FP in Malaysia, particularly within the Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance (MCCG) framework.

There is evidence that autism, or Autism Spectrum Disorder, is associated with Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), which involves atypical behaviors that are often narrated in the patient's medical records in a non-standardized way and are difficult to identify. To help with this, the aim of this article was to draw up a list to help extract information from medical records.

Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) is reflected in unexpected actions and inappropriate behavior for no apparent reason. It is a complex condition that involves the central nervous system and is not evident in clinical examinations. Introduction: Identifying the patient's reactions to everyday situations helps health professionals to recognize sensory integration difficulties and establish a treatment plan, which begins with assessment. Objective: To identify the assessment most commonly adopted by SPT researchers.

In recent years, the hotel industry had faced increasing scrutiny over its environmental impact, prompting customers to seek eco-friendly accommodation options. This research aimed to assess the influence of green marketing and hotel environmental performance within Equatorial Guinea capital of Malabo. Guided by the natural resource base view theory, this study employed a quantitative approach and an explanatory design. The target population included all 197 hotels in Equatorial Guinea capital of Malabo, with a sample size of 132 hotels selected through simple random sampling.

The advent of Artificial intelligence has promising advantages that can be utilized to transform the landscape of software project development. The Software process framework consists of activities that constantly require routine human interaction, leading to the possibility of errors and uncertainties. AI can assist software development managers, software testers, and other team members by leveraging LLMs, GenAI models, and AI agents to perform routine tasks, risk analysis and prediction, strategy recommendations, and support decision-making.

The Ionospheric scintillation has a huge impact on radio propagation and electronic system performance, thus is substantially studied currently. The particular influence of scintillation on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is very evident, making GNSS a powerful medium to analyze characteristics of scintillation. Ionospheric scintillation differs in relationship with provisional, provisory and spatial distribution. Present study describing about the occurrence of ionospheric scintillation during the geomagnetic storm on 17 March 2015 over Darwin, Australia.1.

Introduction: Bullying has become a major issue in the social environment causing an impact on physical health, mental health and social life of an individual.

A Amazônia possui uma das maiores bacias hidrográficas do mundo, essencial para a biodiversidade e para as populações locais. A gestão sustentável desses recursos envolve regulamentações que garantam o uso racional da água, proteção dos cursos d'água contra poluição e a preservação dos ecossistemas aquáticos. Diante das crescentes pressões sobre os recursos naturais da Amazônia, a gestão e a conservação dos recursos hídricos emergem como questões centrais para assegurar a sustentabilidade ambiental e o bem-estar das populações da região.

Transdermal Drug Delivery systems represent a category of topical, self-contained discrete dosage forms designed to deliver drugs at a controlled rate to the systemic circulation when applied to intact skin. This research reports the successful preparation of a Celecoxib transdermal patch using the solvent casting technique. Various plasticizers, including PEG, glycerol, and oleic acid, were employed in combination with different solvent ratios. The formulation incorporated polymers such as methylcellulose, guar gum, HPMC, and ERS 100.
