Background: With increasing reliance on digital devices, concerns about their impact on mental health have grown, particularly among young adults.
Aim: This study aims to evaluate the impact of a digital detox intervention on reducing anxiety and depression among young adults across diverse demographic backgrounds.
Methods: A pre-test, followed by a digital detox intervention, and a post-test using an online survey was carried out.

Currently, the mortality rate in Saudi Arabia's ICUs is increasing due to the spread of carbapenemase (KPC)-producing bacteria. This study was carried out to evaluate the ability of biologically synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) using to overcome carbapenem-resistant (KPC) and . ZnO-NPs were synthesized a biological method and characterized using UV-Vis spectroscopy, Zetasizer and zeta potential analyses, x-ray diffraction spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDX).

Four isolates of fungi, namely, Alternaria alternata (AA-1), Aspergillus flavus (AF-3), Aspergillus terreus (AT-7), and Trichoderma harzianum (TH-5), were isolated from date palm soil in Saudi Arabia. The mixed fungal of the four isolates have a powerful tool for biodegradation up to 73.
