Stabilizing customer relationships plays an important role in improving supply chain resilience. Based on a sample of A-share listed companies in the manufacturing industry from 2009 to 2022, this work investigates the impact of SOM(service-oriented manufacturing) on supply chain resilience from the perspective of customer stability. The results showed that SOM has a positive impact on customer relationship stability, indicating that manufacturing enterprises carrying out SOM can improve customer relationship stability, and this stable relationship is long lasting. Analysis of service-oriented manufacturing structure reveals that service that supports the supplier's product (e.g., after-sale services) is less effective in promoting customer relationship stability than service that supports the customer (e.g., training service). This study theoretically expands the research on the allocation of enterprise resources among supply chains, promotes the deep integration of modern service industry and advanced manufacturing industry, and provides experience for implementation of relevant decision-making and deployment of supply chain security and stability in practice.

Mitochondria are key regulators of metabolism and ATP supply in skeletal muscle, while circadian rhythms influence many physiological processes. However, whether mitochondrial function is intrinsically regulated in a circadian manner in mouse skeletal muscle is inadequately understood. Accordingly, we measured post-absorptive transcript abundance of markers of mitochondrial biogenesis, dynamics, and metabolism (extensor digitorum longus [EDL], soleus, gastrocnemius), protein abundance of electron transport chain complexes (EDL and soleus), enzymatic activity of SDH (tibialis anterior and plantaris), and maximum uncoupled respiration (tibialis anterior) in different skeletal muscles from female C57BL/6NJ mice at four zeitgeber times (ZT), ZT 1, 7, 13, and 19.

Objective: The objective of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility of using an automatic weight management system to follow patients' response to weight reduction medications and to identify early deviations from weight trajectories.
Methods: The pilot study involved 11 participants using Semaglutide for weight management, monitored over a 12-month period. A cloud-based, Wi-Fi-enabled remote weight management system collected and analyzed daily weight data from smart scales.

This review examines the efficiency of live animal and meat value chain from producers to consumers in Ethiopia. Ethiopia has a large livestock population, but the marketing system for live animals and meat remains underdeveloped. Several challenges hinder efficient transactions, including poor infrastructure, illegal cross-border trade, lack of market information, traditional production methods, and absence of grading systems.

Today's globalised agricultural sector poses significant environmental challenges that are expected to worsen with population growth, increased urbanisation, and with the effects of climate change. In this context, vertical farming systems have gained traction as potential solutions to create a more resilient and sustainable food system. This study aims to evaluate the environmental performance of mixed salad bags from a conventional supply chain and compare it with that of mixed salad supplied by a large-scale vertical farm.
