Abstract
This paper proposes a systematic framework for adopting Green Blockchain Technology (BLCT) within the Food Supply Chain (FSC). Drawing on a comprehensive review of 175 research papers and semi-structured interviews with industry experts and digital transformation specialists, the study develops a strategic model to guide BLCT implementation. Increasing consumer demand for food quality, safety, and transparency has intensified the need for advanced technological solutions, particularly as traditional traceability systems remain inefficient and prone to security vulnerabilities. BLCT addresses these limitations by enhancing transparency, traceability, and data integrity throughout the supply chain. Through the integration of sensors, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, BLCT optimizes operational efficiency while ensuring autonomous and reliable data capture. The study examines the critical factors influencing BLCT adoption, assesses its associated benefits and challenges, and delineates a structured pathway for its integration into FSC operations. The findings culminate in a strategic framework that details the essential phases, digital tools, and enabling technologies requisite for green blockchain implementation. Ultimately, the paper demonstrates how BLCT contributes to sustainability objectives and operational excellence, offering triple-bottom-line advantages—economic, environmental, and social—for the transformation of global food supply chains.

Abstract
The article is dedicated to an integrative biomedical analysis of how balanced nutrition and regular physical exercise modulate cognitive functions and the psycho-emotional state through peripheral–central metabolic coupling. The relevance of the study is determined by the growing prevalence of neurodegenerative and affective disorders that demonstrate limited responsiveness to exclusively pharmacological strategies. Scientific novelty lies in the unified interpretation of muscle–brain, gut–brain, and metabolic–epigenetic pathways as interacting regulatory systems rather than isolated mechanisms. The work describes molecular and physiological processes linking physical load, nutrient availability, neuroinflammation, and synaptic plasticity, with special attention paid to the kynurenine pathway, lactate-mediated signaling, ketone metabolism, and microglial regulation. The article sets itself the goal of identifying mechanistic configurations through which diet and exercise recalibrate neuroplastic potential and emotional stability. To achieve this goal, comparative analysis, structured source synthesis, and mechanistic interpretation of recent experimental and clinical findings were applied. The conclusions demonstrate that cognitive and emotional outcomes emerge from coordinated metabolic signaling rather than single-factor interventions. The article will be useful for researchers and clinicians working in neuroscience, preventive medicine, and lifestyle-based health strategies.

Abstract
Despite substantial advances in contemporary obstetric care, the global burden of perinatal complications and perinatal mental health disorders (PMHD), including postpartum depression and anxiety, remains high and is estimated to affect up to 20% of women in the postpartum period. Structural deficits in human, organizational, and financial resources, as well as fragmented care pathways, result in fewer than 15% of individuals with clinically significant PMHD receiving timely and adequate treatment. This highlights the need to reconsider existing models of care and to develop integrated, multidisciplinary solutions. Against this backdrop, the present study aims to conceptualize and theoretically substantiate an Integrative Perinatal Health Ecosystem (IPHE) designed to overcome systemic barriers and improve the availability, continuity, and quality of perinatal psychosomatic care. The methodological basis of the study includes a systematic review of peer-reviewed academic sources (Scopus/Web of Science), analysis of current clinical protocols and procedures, and conceptual modeling grounded in the biopsychosocial paradigm and the life-course perspective, which allows perinatal health to be considered within extended biographical trajectories rather than as isolated episodes of care-seeking. Analytical and synthetic generalization yielded a three-component IPHE structure that comprises Physical Activity (PA), Nutritional Support, and Neuropsychophysiological Technologies (NPPT), integrated through a unified digital “Connected” layer that provides end-to-end infrastructure for monitoring, communication, and personalization of interventions. The findings support a pronounced synergistic influence of these components on homeostatic mechanisms of the psychoneuroimmune (PNI) axis, creating prerequisites for comprehensive prevention and correction of PMHD in the perinatal period. Evidence indicates that NPPT, particularly mindfulness-based protocols, are associated with improved metabolic outcomes in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), underscoring the potential of non-pharmacological interventions within perinatal management. Standardized PA programs are associated with a reduced risk of adverse obstetric and perinatal outcomes, supporting the systematic inclusion of gestation-adapted physical exercise in care pathways for pregnant women. Furthermore, adherence to a Mediterranean-type diet correlates with a lower likelihood of postpartum depression, emphasizing the importance of the nutritional component in PMHD prevention. Taken together, the proposed IPHE model has the potential to reduce systemic barriers through cost-effective digital delivery of services, providing a standardized, continuous, yet personalized format of perinatal care of interest to clinicians, health services researchers, and lifestyle modification specialists.

Abstract
This article examines the evolution of digital marketing performance metrics in the context of maximizing return on investment. The study is conducted as a systematic review and analytical synthesis of academic publications focused on marketing analytics, performance evaluation, and data-driven decision-making. The primary focus is on the transformation of evaluation logic, specifically the shift from isolated indicators to an interconnected system of metrics, as well as on the role of behavioral and organizational factors in shaping economic outcomes. Key groups of metrics are analyzed, including activity metrics, behavioral metrics, economic metrics, and strategic metrics, along with their interrelationships within the overall evaluation framework. It is demonstrated that the impact of digital marketing is not realized directly through individual metrics, but through a sequential system of transformations linking user interactions to financial outcomes. The study shows that traditional reach and engagement metrics do not provide a reliable assessment of effectiveness in a multi-channel environment characterized by variability in platform algorithms. An original ROI-oriented integrated model of digital marketing metrics is proposed, reflecting the hierarchical structure of metrics, their transformation mechanisms, and the influence of contextual factors. The findings support the interpretation of performance evaluation as a dynamic and multi-level system in which outcomes are determined by the alignment of metrics, organizational capabilities, and external conditions. The article may be of interest to researchers in marketing analytics, digital marketing professionals, and practitioners engaged in performance evaluation and data-driven management.

Abstract
The article is dedicated to the standardization of sanitary and hygienic standards in the provision of make-up and hairdressing services as a public health, occupational safety, and service regulation problem. The relevance of the topic is determined by the growing density of contact in salon environments, the continuous circulation of tools and chemical products, and the uneven enforcement of preventive routines under conditions of intensive daily practice. The novelty lies in the interpretation of salon hygiene not as a set of isolated sanitary rules but as a multi-layered operational system in which behavioral, instrumental, environmental, chemical, and institutional components interact. The work describes the mechanisms through which contamination and chemical exposure are generated, redistributed, and partially controlled in beauty service settings. Special attention is paid to the interdependence between worker training, procedural discipline, ventilation, protective equipment, and regulatory fragmentation. The goal is to explain how hygienic instability emerges inside routine service processes. Analytical review and conceptual interpretation were used. Recent international studies were examined. The conclusion outlines the conditions under which hygiene becomes operationally stable. The article will be useful for researchers, educators, salon managers, and regulators.

Abstract
This article examines the architecture of asset allocation models within unit-linked life insurance portfolios, analyzing their relationship with regulatory constraints, client behavior, and insurer capital requirements. The study's relevance stems from the rapid expansion of the unit-linked segment in Europe, its pivotal role in long-term savings, and increasingly stringent supervisory demands for transparency, resilience, and client value. The paper aims to systematically assess the applicability of strategic, tactical, life-cycle, factor-based, and risk-oriented asset allocation models under product, technological, and regulatory constraints. The novelty of this research lies in integrating investment approaches with the practical limitations of unit-linked architecture, thereby shifting the focus from classical risk-return optimization to a multidimensional problem of aligning the interests of policyholders, insurers, and supervisors. The findings demonstrate that a model's effectiveness is determined not only by its statistical characteristics but also by its resilience to mass surrenders, behavioral shifts in client activity, distribution costs, and liquidity requirements. The main conclusions indicate that strategic allocation constitutes the fundamental framework of the product, establishing the long-term risk profile and capital intensity of the funds. In contrast, tactical deviations demonstrate limited ability to improve outcomes once forecasting errors and transaction costs are accounted for. Life-cycle models and risk-oriented schemes exhibit high robustness and consistency with regulatory expectations regarding product transparency and suitability. The critical object of management is not a fixed portfolio but rather a formalized process for designing, testing, and regularly revising the asset allocation model. This article is intended for actuaries, insurance company portfolio managers, researchers, and regulators.

Abstract
The manuscript surveys computational strategies that employ the finite element method to predict crack initiation paths and fatigue-driven advance in aerospace structural materials. The review consolidates three solver families: extended finite elements, variational phase-field formulations, and interface-oriented approaches such as VCCT and cohesive zones, and compares their driving-force evaluation, calibration demands, and scaling on representative components. Emphasis falls on mesh-objective extraction of ΔK/ΔJ or mode-partitioned ΔG, stabilized update rules for cycle advance, and thermomechanical coupling typical for fairings, tanks, and bonded substructures.
Because crack-growth prediction directly influences aerospace durability, certification, and structural safety, the synthesis highlights how FEM-based methods support industry workflows for metallic skins, composite run-outs, and dissimilar joints. The analysis also aligns with broader industry priorities related to advanced materials reliability, demonstrating how accurate FEM-based fatigue modeling contributes to safer and more efficient U.S. aerospace structures.
Reported pipelines demonstrate convergence to test-level trends when growth laws are identified under matching lay-ups, environments, and R-ratios. The paper systematizes deployment choices for metallic skins with cut-outs, composite stringer run-outs, and dissimilar joints. It outlines verification checkpoints for 3D domain integrals, mixed-mode partitioning, and phase-field length-scale selection. The synthesis supports hierarchical modeling where distinct FEM families handle interface growth, uncertain metallic paths, and branching tuned to aerospace certification needs.

Abstract
This study considers multilingual education as a critical systemic element capable of significantly influencing the development of school students’ global competence. The purpose of the research is to substantiate and present a conceptual model that illustrates the mechanisms through which multilingual practices impact the cognitive, affective, and behavioral dimensions of global competence. The methodological foundation of the study is based on a systems analysis of relevant publications and a review of normative documents from international organizations, including OECD, UNESCO, and the Council of Europe. On this basis, a multilevel model is proposed, demonstrating how the implementation of specific pedagogical approaches—such as Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) and translanguaging—fosters the development of intermediate cognitive and social skills, including cognitive flexibility and empathy, which in turn serve as a foundation for mastering the four core dimensions of global competence. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the presentation of an integrative model that systematizes and operationalizes the relationship between multilingual education and global competence, while also offering a practical framework for designing and evaluating educational programs. The findings are of relevance to specialists in pedagogy, language didactics, and comparative education, as well as to administrators and curriculum developers working in multilingual and international educational contexts.

Abstract
The article examines the role of the physical therapist within the urgent orthopedic care system. It analyzes contemporary organizational models that demonstrate a pivot from surgical reactivity toward functional prevention of health loss. Due to the increase in the elderly population, urbanization, and high prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in the global burden of disability, the purpose of this review was to systematically investigate what models exist with physical therapists in the urgent orthopedic care, how efficient they are in their clinical, organizational, and economic perspectives, and what could prevent dissemination across jurisdictions. This was performed using a mixed-methods approach, combining randomized trials, scoping reviews, cohort studies, and regulatory documents to ensure interdisciplinary depth and representativeness. The study’s novelty lies in conceptualizing the physical therapist not as a post-rehabilitation operator but as an autonomous clinical filter in emergency care. In a comparative perspective, early involvement of a movement specialist decreases time to treatment initiation, reduces unnecessary imaging and return visits, alleviates surgeon workload, and lowers clinic expenditures. An architectural typology of integration is proposed, ranging from full autonomy in emergency departments to tele-triage and outreach models, together with a three-component framework for successful implementation: regulatory clarity, educational adaptation, and financial alignment. The article will be helpful for healthcare administrators, specialists in traumatology, orthopedics, and physical therapy, and developers of academic and regulatory health programs.

Abstract
This study examined the influence of policy innovations on the business education curriculum at the Federal College of Education, Abeokuta. Specifically, it investigated the extent to which policy reforms have influenced curriculum content, teaching methods, and delivery, as well as the challenges hindering effective implementation. The descriptive survey design was adopted, with a sample size of 110 respondents drawn through stratified random sampling. A structured questionnaire validated by experts and tested for reliability was used for data collection. Descriptive statistics such as mean and standard deviation were employed to answer the research questions, while regression analysis tested the hypothesis at a 0.05 level of significance. Findings revealed that policy innovations positively influenced curriculum flexibility, content relevance, and the adoption of modern instructional methods. However, the integration of entrepreneurship education was less effective. The study further identified inadequate funding, lack of instructional resources, poor infrastructure, and limited lecturer training as the most pressing challenges affecting policy implementation. Hypothesis testing confirmed that policy innovations had a significant effect on the business education curriculum and its implementation. It was concluded that while policy reforms are important drivers of curriculum improvement, their influence is constrained by structural and institutional barriers. The study recommended that the Ministry of Education should allocate at least 15% of institutional budgets to curriculum innovation, including ICT tools, textbooks, and laboratories and also Colleges of Education should organise annual training workshops to equip lecturers with modern teaching and entrepreneurship skills.

Abstract
Organisational culture has long been recognised as a crucial factor influencing various aspects of managing an organisation. Its impact on employee turnover cannot be overstated. By exploring the post-COVID-19 landscape, this paper sheds light on the growing recognition of culture as an essential and fundamental component of organisations, intertwined with employee retention, job satisfaction, leadership, racism, and behavioural patterns. This article further examines the significance of building a compassionate culture with CARE (Cultivating Authentic Relationships with Empathy) in organisations, particularly in the post-COVID-19 era. The article also introduces the CARE Framework, a novel approach that offers potential solutions to the longstanding challenges associated with shaping organisational culture. With its emphasis on cultivating authentic relationships and empathy, the CARE Framework aims to address the persistent conundrum that has perplexed management and leaders for decades. By implementing this framework, organisations can foster a compassionate culture that enhances employee engagement and satisfaction while supporting the growth and development of both individuals and the organisation as a whole. By exploring the importance of culture in the post-COVID-19 landscape and introducing the CARE Framework, this article provides valuable insights and practical strategies for organisations seeking to build a compassionate culture. Fostering a caring culture can lead to a more inclusive, supportive, and thriving organisational environment. The CARE Framework is based on the literature review conducted for this paper and incorporates findings from primary research undertaken in a separate study on emotional intelligence and strategic leadership.

Abstract
Modern software testing faces significant challenges in scalability, maintainability, and intelligent defect detection. Traditional automated testing frameworks rely heavily on manually crafted test cases and rule-based validation, which become increasingly inefficient as system complexity grows. This paper presents CogniTest, a cognitive software testing framework that integrates Large Language Models with automated testing pipelines to enhance test case generation, bug classification, and log interpretation. A production-ready implementation was developed using Mistral-7B-Instruct as the core reasoning engine, integrated with pytest for test execution and a microservices-based demonstration application. Experimental results demonstrate an 87.6% improvement in test coverage, 64.3% reduction in manual test creation time, and 89.2% accuracy in automated bug severity classification. The framework generated 742 test cases from natural language requirements, identified 31 previously undetected edge cases, and provided human-readable explanations for 143 system failures. Complete source code and datasets are publicly available.

Abstract
This article addresses the challenge of achieving high accuracy when operating on large-scale datasets in large language models (LLMs). It proposes an architectural framework that enables the full-context processing of ultra-large text corpora. The relevance of the study stems from the fact that traditional methods, predicated on selective information retrieval, cannot guarantee the completeness and veracity of the context. The objective is to provide theoretical and practical justification for designing systems that maximize factual accuracy through an architecture of full context availability. The scientific novelty lies in formulating a multi-layer framework that adapts the MapReduce paradigm to LLMs and comprises three key components: (1) full-context processing via semantic fragmentation and parallel chunk processing, (2) tool calling to verify model inferences against external sources of truth, and (3) sequential thinking as a mechanism for iterative self-checking and self-correction. The principal findings demonstrate that the proposed architecture yields a significant improvement in the accuracy and reliability of inference, eliminating dependence on probabilistic retrievers and minimizing LLM hallucinations. The article will be helpful to AI researchers, LLM infrastructure developers, data engineers, and practitioners building solutions for high-risk domains where factual precision and interpretability are crucial.

Abstract
Attacks on hospitals, medical transport, and healthcare personnel during armed conflict have escalated in both frequency and severity, threatening the neutrality of medical missions and undermining international humanitarian law (IHL). Despite a comprehensive legal framework, including the Geneva Conventions, their Additional Protocols, and provisions under international criminal law, recent conflicts in regions such as Gaza, Afghanistan, Ukraine, and Sudan have exposed significant gaps in enforcement and accountability. This paper critically evaluates the existing IHL protections for healthcare infrastructure and personnel, with a focus on the conditions under which these protections may be lost, particularly through misuse or military necessity.
Drawing on doctrinal legal analysis, case law, and empirical data from human rights and monitoring organizations, the study interrogates how legal thresholds, such as proportionality and distinction, are interpreted and applied in practice. Case studies, including those involving attacks on Koševo Hospital, Al-Shifa Hospital, the Kunduz Trauma Centre and Izium Central Hospital, illustrate the inconsistent application of legal standards and the frequent reliance on ambiguous or unverifiable claims of military misuse.
The findings reveal that current legal protections are routinely bypassed due to vague legal definitions, the lack of independent verification mechanisms, and political reluctance to pursue criminal accountability. The paper presents a conceptual framework for assessing lawful versus unlawful attacks on healthcare infrastructure, offering a structured lens for evaluating intent, warnings, military necessity, and proportionality. In doing so, it exposes the erosion of the "protected status" doctrine and the emergence of a culture of impunity.
The paper concludes by urging a reassessment of existing IHL norms and accountability mechanisms, especially in light of the increasing role of non-state actors and hybrid warfare. It further argues for stronger institutional safeguards, including the creation of independent investigatory bodies or special tribunals, to restore the credibility of IHL and uphold the principle of medical neutrality in armed conflict. The study has particular relevance for states such as Saudi Arabia that are committed to IHL compliance and may pl
NOVEL LUBRICATE, KILL & BLEED METHOD**

Abstract
This paper investigates the application and limitations of the so-called “Lubricate & Bleed” (L&B) method — a volumetric technique widely used to address oil well integrity challenges. In practice, significant discrepancies were observed between the predicted and actual fluid pumping and purging schedules when applying this method in the field. This study examines the scientific principles underpinning the L&B method and proposes a refined predictive framework to improve its accuracy and reliability.
The L&B process involves a sequence of fluid injection (lubrication) and controlled venting (bleeding), with operational steps typically determined using standard procedures found in professional well control manuals. However, field experience has shown that the actual execution of these steps often deviates markedly from the initial plan. In several operations, it was necessary to manually adjust the fluid volumes of specific steps to achieve a successful outcome. These discrepancies between predicted and actual performance motivated a deeper investigation into the method’s theoretical foundations, with the aim of enhancing future operational practices.
To illustrate the core challenge, consider the analogy of a closed bottle containing gas that must be entirely replaced with water — without breaking the bottle or releasing the gas into the atmosphere. Even with a valve allowing connection to external flow control devices, completely displacing the gas is non-trivial due to gas expansion and distribution effects. When this analogy is extended to a wellbore — a vertical closed space extending hundreds or thousands of meters — the challenge becomes even more pronounced.
Nevertheless, displacing the gas with a safe liquid such as water remains achievable through the lubricate and bleed technique. This paper first reviews the conventional L&B methodology described in well control manuals. However, during field applications, the method proved less effective than anticipated due to fundamental limitations in the underlying assumptions and calculations.
Moreover, additional challenges arose when the well exhibited sustained casing pressure (SCP), revealing critical limitations of the standard L&B approach. This prompted the development of a modified strategy — the “Lubricate, Kill & Bleed” (LK&B) method — which not only displaces the gas but also allows for effective well killing operations.
Building on the thermodynamic behavior of real gases, equations of state, echometry, laboratory analysis of gas properties, calculus of variations, partial differential equations, energy conservation laws, heat transfer models, and product series expansions, this study derives an improved predictive model for volumetric well control operations. The proposed framework offers enhanced accuracy in forecasting fluid schedules and provides operational guidance for complex well integrity scenarios involving trapped gas under pressure.

Abstract
Flaxseed was cultivated in Babylon in around many centuries ago and many people consider it as one of the most powerful plant foods on the planet (Magee, 2020). When Traced back to history, we can also realize that flaxseed can be used to treat diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, stroke and all kinds of cancer. The application of flaxseed was highlighted by scientists and medical workers for many centuries. However, the valuable effects of flaxseed was always underestimated to a large degree, and even people who are working in the specific field can not cognitively associate the benefits of flaxseed with the treatment of certain disease. Thus, the waste of flaxseed was unnoticed when it comes over-consumption and non-effective consumption. This article will enumerate both the positive side and the negative side of flaxseed which will benefits sustainable development as an organic food source. After a systematic comparison and analysis, the conclusion was drawn naturally with statistic analysis and logic induction as scientific collaboration. *

Abstract
Due to globalization, the clear-cut contrast between Chinese culture and American culture was blurred through constant cultural dialogue and interaction. Culture is complex and multidimensional. It is in fact too complex to define a certain culture in simple terms and rough definition. Kroeber and Kluckhohn in 1952 identified over 160 different definitions of culture. One of the earliest widely cited definitions by Tylor in 1887 defines culture as “that complex whole which includes knowledge, belief, art, morals, law, custom, and any other capabilities and habits acquired by human as a member of society.” With a dialogic perspective, this article investigated the differences and common features between western culture and eastern culture by observing the holistic overview of specific culture in China and in America. The research result confirms our hypothesis. The research also suggested that people in modern era should view distinct culture with more tolerance, appreciation and respect. New culture should be redefined with respect to historical facts, linguistic uniqueness and differences in customs. *
