A cross-sectional analysis of dietary advanced glycation end products intake and its relationship with body composition, mental health, and sleep in adults
(ROUTLEDGE JOURNALS, TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2-4 PARK SQUARE, MILTON PARK, ABINGDON OX14 4RN, OXON, ENGLAND, 2025) Bayram, Hatice Merve; Öztürkcan, Seyfettin Arda
This cross-sectional study examined the associations between dietary advanced glycation end products (dAGEs) intake, obesity, mental health, and sleep quality in Turkish adults. A total of 383 individuals were evaluated using validated scales (DASS-21, PSQI), anthropometric measurements, and 24-hour dietary recall. Dietary intakes of CML, CEL, and MG-H1 values were estimated using a European AGEs database. Higher dAGEs intake was significantly associated with increased BMI, waist circumference, depression, anxiety, stress, and poor sleep quality (p < .05). The main dAGEs contributors were cereals, meat products, cakes/biscuits, and confectionery items. Results suggest dAGEs intake may negatively impact mental health and sleep.
Spectroscopic, X-Ray Crystallographic, and Hirshfeld Surface Analyses for the Investigation of Intermolecular Interactions in Carboxamide Hydrazone Hybrids
(WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH, POSTFACH 101161, 69451 WEINHEIM, GERMANY, 2025) Kheder, Nabila A.; Salem, Mostafa E.; Soliman, Saied M.; Elhaty, Ismail A.; Mahmoud, Naglaa S.; Abdel-Megid, Mohamed; Dawood, Kamal M.
The current study reports a convenient synthetic approach to carboxamide hydrazone hybrids 2a, b. Their chemical structures are investigated using infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectroscopies. In addition, the 3D structure of 2a is explored using single-crystal X-ray analysis, while the important intermolecular contacts are described based on the Hirshfeld analysis. Fukui function, highest occupied molecular orbitallowest unoccupied molecular orbital, molecular electrostatic potential, and Mulliken charge analysis reveal distinct electrophilic and nucleophilic regions of hydrazone 2a, and support its stability and moderate chemical reactivity. Their antimicrobial potency is also evaluated against six microbial strains. Compound 2b shows significant antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus compared to Gentamicin.
Young Household Intentions to Prevent Food Waste: An Application of the Theory of Planned Behavior and Health Belief Model
(WILEY, 111 RIVER ST, HOBOKEN 07030-5774, NJ, 2025) Habib, Muhammad Danish; Ashraf, Nadia; Bekun, Festus Victor; Aliyev, Anar
Food waste is a contemporary global issue that obstructs the achievement of many sustainable development goals (SDGs). Despite exponential growth in research related to food waste, there is not enough evidence in developing countries to guide policymakers in creating effective strategies. This research seeks to address the existing research gaps in understanding food waste prevention behavior by utilizing well-known theoretical lenses: the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and the health belief model (HBM). The current study examines food waste prevention intentions of Pakistani households. Data was collected from 607 young households through the convenience sampling technique. The study results validated the propositions of TPB and HBM. This study contributes to the existing literature by providing empirical knowledge related to food conservation by uncovering food waste prevention behavior. The study results are useful for practitioners and policymakers.
Patient Satisfaction in Alternative, Holistic, and Complementary Treatment Centers: The Case of Istanbul
(ESKISEHIR OSMANGAZI UNIV, FAC EDUCATION, ESKISEHIR OSMANGAZI UNIV, FAC EDUCATION, ESKISEHIR 26480, Turkiye, 2025) Makar, Zehra; Girginer, Nuray
As in all sectors, patients in the healthcare sector have become more selective when choosing healthcare services, as they expect to receive value for the money they spend. This study aims to measure the level of satisfaction of patients who visit healthcare centers offering alternative, holistic, and complementary treatments in Istanbul. A survey was conducted with 436 individuals who visited alternative, holistic, and complementary treatment centers in Istanbul. The findings show that patients prioritize improving their quality of life and reducing pain with alternative treatments. Most participants expressed satisfaction with timely service, convenient appointment options, and the supportive attitudes of physicians and staff.
Job insecurity and employee anxiety as predictors of compulsory citizenship behaviour: Psychological resilience as a mediator
(SCIENDO, BOGUMILA ZUGA 32A, WARSAW, MAZOVIA 01-811, POLAND, 2025) Alola, Uju Violet; Echebiri, Chukwuemeka; Egeli, Serdar
The global business environment has recently faced disruptions, namely the COVID-19 lockdown and artificial intelligence. Sometimes, organisations leverage these disruptions to stoke uncertainty and demand more from their employees. This paper investigated the role of job insecurity and employee anxiety as antecedents of compulsory citizenship behaviour and the role of psychological resilience as a mediator in the face of these disruptions. We adopted a convenience sample approach, collecting data from 380 respondents who were employees in the hotel sector in Turkey. Analyses were performed using structural equation modelling on SPSS AMOS. The findings show that job insecurity and employee anxiety have a negative relationship with psychological resilience and compulsory citizenship behaviour. In contrast, psychological resilience has a positive association with compulsory citizenship behaviour. We also found that psychological resilience mediates the relationships between job insecurity, employee anxiety, and compulsory citizenship behaviour. The results have both theoretical and practical implications. They suggest that organisations should not leverage on uncertainties and disruptions that might trigger feelings of job insecurity or anxiety to stoke compulsory citizenship behaviour, since this could be counterproductive.
