Published: December 2024

This study investigates the impact of Accounting Knowledge Management (AKM) systems on innovation and performance in UAE organisations, in line with the country's vision to become a global financial hub. By using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) on data from various UAE firms, the research uncovers a strong positive relationship between knowledge sharing in accounting and both financial and non-financial outcomes, fostering overall organisational innovation. Interestingly, non-financial improvements like customer satisfaction may not always lead directly to financial gains, suggesting a need for UAE firms to find a strategic balance. This study contributes valuable insights to the academic discourse on knowledge management, offering UAE organisations evidence-based recommendations to leverage AKM for sustained innovation and growth. These findings serve as a benchmark for other organisations aiming to optimise knowledge management systems to enhance performance across multiple dimensions.

This study identified and explored factors and risks related to trust, perceived values, satisfaction, and sustainable use of GenAI chatbots. Relying on IS theories to build a stimulus-organism-response model, the authors tested a model using PLS-SEM with data from 393 ChatGPT users. The results show that user competence and autonomy dramatically increase a user's trust in ChatGPT, and trust improves hedonic value (HV), utilitarian value (UV), value-in-use, perceived task-technology fit (TTF), information accuracy, knowledge acquisition, perceived informativeness, and user satisfaction. In addition to trust, user satisfaction depends on HV, UV, and TTF. The sustainability use of ChatGPT depends on HV and satisfaction. However, perceived privacy concerns, perceived privacy risks, and privacy awareness do not affect consumer trust. There is a complete mediation between trust and sustainability, as well as HV and sustainability.

As artificial intelligence rapidly advances, addressing the interplay of technical, ethical, and risk factors in optimizing digital market decision-making through AI platforms has become increasingly prominent. However, the impact of these factors on market performance, particularly in investment value, remains underexplored. The study, based on 412 validated responses from service industry professionals gathered through a carefully designed questionnaire, aims to predict the relationship among these factors and their influence on market performance. It also explores how cognitive engagement mediates the relationship between AI platforms and financial metrics. Key findings:(1) the interplay of technical, ethical, and risk factors optimizes market decision-making and guides AI investments; (2) cognitive engagement, especially in the services sector, is essential to maximize the impact of AI platforms on market performance. The study provides valuable insights into AI's role in shaping market dynamics within the services sector and relevant governance recommendations for policymakers.

This study builds a research model based on sense-making theory and Dervin's sense-making model of 'gap-bridge-uses' to explore the relationship between users' fear of missing out (FoMO) in relation to charity crowdfunding performance, and collected a set of 230 data of users from the famous charitable crowdfunding campaign on TikTok. The research revealed that FoMO could predict approach behaviour towards charitable crowdfunding. And collective psychological ownership (CPO) mediated the effect of FoMO on approach behaviour towards charitable crowdfunding, and psychological resilience (PR) positively moderated the mediating effect of CPO on approach behaviour. This study not only enriched the research about information interaction and sense-making process between users and charitable crowdfunding, but also extended the research boundary of the relationship between FoMO and approach behaviour towards charitable crowdfunding.

A female NCAA Division I track athlete experienced non-localized shin pain midway through her first season, which was diagnosed as medial tibial stress syndrome. Treatments included strengthening and range of motion exercises, reduced training volume, and pain control modalities, but symptoms worsened. It was revealed she had been suffering from severe sleep deprivation (<3 hours/night) contributing to bilateral tibial and fibular stress reactions. Months of trial and error eventually resulted in the implementation of sleep interventions which improved her total body bone mineral density and bilateral stress reactions. Two years after successful sleep interventions this athlete has remained injury-free and continues to set personal bests in her events. Our standard injury screening protocols did not include questioning sleep quality and quantity early in the process and this case highlights the need for these measures to be considered initially and throughout the treatment and recovery phases of sports-related injuries.
Quantifying Bindu matra of Shatavari ghrita: A pilot study
Authors: Tiwari Richa , Vyas Mahesh , Kumar Kamal , Sharma Nidhi
Published: December 2024

Introduction:

Nasya is a therapy where the medicine is instilled through nostrils. It has been considered an important regimen in daily life as per Ayurvedic classics. It also holds significant therapeutic value for diseases affecting areas above the clavicle due to its direct pathway through the nose. Dose for Nasya therapy has been explained through Bindu pramana in the classics along with its clear definition. However, published evidence toward quantifying the Bindu pramana are very few. Information on quantification of Bindu for Shatavari ghrita is not available. Thus, an attempt has been made to quantify the Bindu for Shatavari ghrita.

Materials and Methods:

Shatavari ghrita prepared in the laboratory was used in the experiment. The method of quantifying the Bindu matra was conducted in 30 healthy volunteers, considering the classical reference of Ashtang hridaya. The observations were tabulated and the average Bindu matra was quantified.

Result:

An average 0.7 mL was found to be equivalent to one Bindu for Shatavari ghrita.

Conclusions:

While fixing dose of medicated oils and Ghritas, the term Bindu cannot considered a drop. The quantity differs from formulation to formulation, and it depends upon the specific gravity of the product. Exact quantification of Bindu for all such formulations has to be standardized to obtain desired therapeutic effects.
Exploring quantum cognition and Ayurveda: A fusion of ancient wisdom and modern science
Authors: Joshi Sumedh
Published: December 2024

This article explores the convergence of quantum cognition and Ayurveda, two seemingly disparate realms that offer intriguing parallels and potential synergies. Quantum cognition, drawing from principles of quantum mechanics, offers a novel perspective on human decision-making and information processing, while Ayurveda, an ancient Indian system of medicine, provides a holistic framework for understanding health and well-being. Despite their distinct origins, both disciplines recognize the complexity and interconnectedness of human experience, challenging reductionist approaches to understanding the mind and body. By integrating insights from quantum cognition into Ayurvedic principles, new perspectives on the mind–body connection and approaches to health and wellness emerge. This synthesis offers potential for scientific investigation, holistic healing methodologies, and societal change, providing insights into unraveling mental complexities and cultivating a balanced relationship with ourselves and the environment.
O-GalNAc Glycosylation - Key Pathway for Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis in Patients with Metabolically Unhealthy Obesity
Authors: Yang Rui , Han Jianli
Published: December 2024

Objective:

The incidence of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) in patients with metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO) is generally higher than that in normal-weight individuals. However, the relationship among obesity, HT, and hypothyroidism remains unclear.

Subjects and Methods:

We searched the National Center for Biotechnology Information database and analyzed the abnormal expression of miRNAs in patients with MUO. The datasets GSE169290 and GSE138198 were selected as the objects of this data analysis. Using the MirPath tool on the DIANA TOOLS website, the KEGG pathway enrichment results were used for further analysis and explored the differential expression of pathways in patients with HT.

Results:

Four KEGG pathways were identified: “prion diseases (hsa05020),” “ECM-receptor interaction (hsa04512),” “mucin-type O-glycan biosynthesis (hsa00512),” and “cell adhesion molecules (hsa04514).” Sixteen differential genes were obtained, among which GALNT15 ranked the first, GALNT12 ranked the eighth, and GALNT8 ranked the 13th. GALNT15, GALNT12, and GALNT8 in the “mucin-type O-glycan biosynthesis” pathway are significantly lower in HT patients, which may be a key factor in the pathogenesis of HT.

Conclusions:

Decreased expression of O-GalNAc glycosylation in patients with MUO may increase the incidence of HT, which may become an important mechanism of HT in patients with obesity and is worthy of further exploration in future.
Analysis of the Relationship between the Angular Characteristics of the Femur and the Dimensions of the Intercondylar Fossa
Authors: Yarar Burhan , Yilmaz Aysun Nur
Published: December 2024

Introduction:

It has been reported in the literature that when the intercondylar fossa (ICF) is narrow, injuries to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) are common and the risk of osteoarthritis increases. In addition, the ICF has been reported to have some advantages in determining the depth of distal femoral resection in total knee arthroplasty. The aim of this study was to investigate whether femoral angular characteristics, which influence hip and knee joint kinematics, affect ICF dimensions.

Materials and Methods:

This study was performed on 74 dry femurs, 36 right and 38 left. Angular parameters were measured on digital images using ImageJ. The ICF parameters were measured using a digital caliper.

Results:

The anatomic lateral distal femoral angle and mechanic lateral distal femoral angle were found to be greater on the left side. A positive correlation was found between both anatomic lateral distal femoral angle and mechanic lateral distal femoral angle and ICF width on the right side and in all cases. A positive correlation was found between the anterior femoral bowing angle (AFBA) and ICF width on the right side.

Conclusion:

As a result, low anatomic lateral distal femoral angle, mechanic lateral distal femoral angle, and AFBA may lead to a narrower ICF, which may predispose to ACL injury and osteoarthritis. The results of this study may help orthopedic surgeons in knee surgery and cruciate ligament reconstruction.
