The significance of global green logistics in improving green economic activities is a critically considered and debatable research topic in the context of economic growth and environment. This study aims to analyze the growth and environmental effects of green logistics performance for One Belt and Road Initiative (OBRI) countries over the period 2007-2019. The study used panel data two-stage least squares (2SLS) and generalized method of moments (GMM) estimators with robust inferences. The findings have revealed that green logistics performance improves the economic growth in OBRI, Europe, and MENA economies. While green logistics performance enhances the environmental pollution in OBRI, Central Asia, and MENA economies, it significantly improves the environmental quality in Europe and East and Southeast Asia regions. The control variables have also importance in economic growth and environment in policy implication in OBRI and five sub-regions of OBRI economies. Based on these findings, we can conduct some robust green logistics policies in OBRI.

Objective: To assess the role of occupational noise exposure on pregnancy complications in urban Nordic populations.

Methods: A study population covering five metropolitan areas in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden was generated using national birth registries linked with occupational and residential environmental exposures and sociodemographic variables. The data covered all pregnancies during 5-11 year periods in 2004‒2016, resulting in 373 184 pregnancies.

Background: Sequential soft tissue releases are utilized in direct anterior approach (DAA) total hip arthroplasty (THA) as incomplete femoral exposure may lead to complications. This study identifies patient-specific parameters associated with soft tissue releases required for femoral exposure.

Methods: A retrospective review was conducted on 133 patients (150 hips) who underwent primary THA via DAA with a single surgeon.

Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), as one of the most advanced methods for the green production of hydrogen, is greatly impeded by inefficient mass transfer. Here we present an efficiently reactant enriched and mass traffic system by integrating high-curvature Pt nanocones with 3D porous TiAl framework to enhance mass transfer rate. Theoretical simulations, in situ Raman spectroscopy and potential-dependent Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results disclose that the strong local electric field induced by high-curvature Pt can greatly promote the HO supply rate during HER, resulting in ∼1.

Article Synopsis
  • Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (MBS) for adolescents has been made more accessible due to recent policy changes, but challenges remain, particularly for diverse populations.
  • A study from 2017-2022 revealed that about 15%-20% of MBS cases in the U.S. involved adolescents, predominantly females and white patients with an average age of 16.1 years.
  • Despite a decline in cases during COVID-19, the volume rebounded, with an increase in sleeve gastrectomy and robotic-assisted surgeries, while overall complication rates remained low at 2.9%.

Green innovation is essential for sustainable development, especially in China's Specialized-Refined-Differentiated-Innovative (SRDI) enterprises. Family-owned SRDI firms, in particular, have attracted attention due to their de-familization strategies and their influence on green innovation. Our study analyzes panel data from 2016 to 2021 for listed SRDI family firms to investigate how de-familization in management rights and ownership impacts green innovation.
