The CEO is the soul of the enterprise and is crucial to improving enterprise innovation and thereby enhancing its core competitiveness. The ability of the manufacturing industry to innovate is a matter of concern to high-quality economic development and the overall strategy to rejuvenate the Chinese nation. The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of CEO demographic characteristics on enterprise innovation in the manufacturing industry. At present, there is a lot of research on the demographic characteristics of CEOs and enterprise innovation in academic circles, but the results of the research are mostly inconsistent, and the characteristics of the research are one-sided. Therefore, this study seeks to comprehensively study the impact of CEO demographic characteristics on enterprise innovation.

Association Between Eight Weeks Of Isometric Handgrip Training And Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Insertion/deletion Gene Polymorphism In Hypertensive Individuals.
A prevalent global health concern is hypertension, affecting over 1 billion people worldwide. Physical exercise plays a crucial role in the lifestyle management of individuals with high blood pressure. This investigation seeks to link ACE I/D gene polymorphism with the effects of eight weeks isometric handgrip (IHG) training and detraining regimen on cardiovascular and muscular function in unmedicated hypertensive population in Malaysia. To assess the cardiovascular and muscular impacts of an eight-week IHG and detraining program across different ACE I/D genotype groups, this study involved fifty-eight unmedicated individuals with hypertension. They were randomly assigned to two groups, namely the training and control groups. The training group comprised 29 participants (mean age: 40.45 ± 9.22), consisting of 22 males and seven females. Simultaneously, the control group included 29 participants (mean age: 37.41 ± 9.03), with 15 males and 14 females. Participants in the IHG group received IHG training three times per week for eight weeks, followed by another eight weeks of detraining in which they did not receive IHG training or any organized exercise. For eight weeks, those in the control group (CON) did not participate in any exercise regimen. Based on the findings of the present study, an eight-week IHG training program resulted in a reduction of the cardiovascular parameter, as indicated by a decrease in systolic blood pressure (SBP), while maintaining consistent levels of muscle variables
The Influence Of Human Practices, Digital Intensity And Innovation On Service Recovery Performance In Malaysian Hotels
Service Recovery Performance forms an essential basis for obtaining long term success for hotel firms. Nonetheless, empirical research on this potential service recovery performance has received limited attention in hotel research. Drawing from Resource Base View (RBV) theory and Business Model Innovation (BMI) theory, this study tests a conceptual model that examines the mediating role of Service Innovation between Digital Intensity and different aspects of Human Practices on Service Recovery Performance within the hotel industry of Malaysia. This study also recognizes the importance of Innovative Culture as the boundary condition between Service Innovation and Service Recovery Performance
