The influence of digital platforms on gig workers: A systematic literature review.

Digital platforms have significantly transformed the labor market, particularly in the gig economy. Despite this issue's growing importance, no systematic literature review has explicitly examined the influence of digital platforms on gig workers. This study fills this gap by conducting a comprehensive review of 18 articles out of 81 published between 2019 and 2023, retrieved from the Scopus and Web of Science databases, using the PRISMA framework.

Enhancing tribological performance of electric vehicle lubricants: Nanoparticle-enriched palm oil biolubricants for wear resistance.

The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) calls for sustainable advancements in automotive lubricants, as traditional fossil-fuel-based products pose environmental challenges. Palm oil-based biolubricants enriched with nanoparticles present a promising eco-friendly alternative that meets the thermal and tribological demands of EVs. This paper aims to analyze the development of nanoparticle-enriched palm oil-based biolubricants, aimed at improving the sustainability and performance of electric vehicle (EV) lubrication systems.

Understanding the progress of COVID-19 transmission in a rural district: a social network approach.

Background: Social interactions within and between communities influenced the spread of COVID-19. By using social network analysis (SNA), we aimed to understand the effect of social interaction on the spread of disease in a rural district.

Method: A retrospective record review study using positive COVID-19 cases and contact-tracing data from an area in Malaysia was performed and analysed using the SNA method through R software and visualised by Gephi software.

User interface design in mobile learning applications: Developing and evaluating a questionnaire for measuring learners' extraneous cognitive load.

Mobile learning is increasingly popular due to its flexibility in timing and location. However, challenges such as small screen sizes and poor user interface design can elevate learners' cognitive load, especially extraneous cognitive load, which hinders learning. Extraneous cognitive load, stemming from user interface design complexity, must be minimized to enhance learning focus.

Development of 3-dimensionally printed denture base material utilizing hybrid polymer: A preliminary investigation.

Statement Of Problem: Current 3-dimensionally (3D) printed denture bases have inadequate strength and durability for long-term use, and milled denture bases generate excessive waste. Addressing these limitations is crucial to advancing prosthetic dentistry, ensuring improved patient outcomes and promoting environmental responsibility.

Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to incorporate microparticles into a commercially available 3D printed denture base resin and compare its mechanical and biological properties with the conventional polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) denture base material.
