INTRODUCTION:

To investigate the impact of procedure-related and endoscopist-related factors on the effectiveness of a computer-aided detection (CADe) device in adenomas per colonoscopy (APC) detection.

METHODS:

The SKOUT clinical trial was conducted at 5 US sites. We present prespecified analyses of procedure-related and endoscopist-related factors, and association with APC across treatment and control cohorts.

RESULTS:

There were numeric increases in APC between SKOUT vs standard colonoscopy in community-based endoscopists, withdrawal time of ≥8 minutes, for endoscopists with >20 years of experience, and endoscopists with baseline adenoma detection rate <45%.

DISCUSSION:

The application of CADe devices in clinical practice should be carefully evaluated. Larger studies should explore differences in endoscopist-related factors for CADe.

Published: August 2023

Goal: The purpose of this study is to develop a decision support framework to select critical success factors (CSFs) and benefits for the implementation of BIM in the public works sector.
Design / Methodology / Approach: The research methodology integrates multiple fuzzy multicriteria decision making (MCDM) approaches to propose a composite framework of CSFs and benefits using qualitative and quantitative approaches, with the application of two semi-structured questionnaires with CSFs and benefits identified in previous studies, through a systematic literature review (SLR).
Results: The study identified 42 CSFs and 31 benefits for the implementation of BIM for public works, and the relative importance of the identified factors and benefits was measured according to the four main BIM perspectives: legal, people, process, and technology. The result of the applied MCDMs showed the relationship between the factors and benefits of the four most influential BIM perspectives according to the proposed framework. The most influential CSFs and benefits were: BIM adoption requires individual and group motivation in the organization, Establishment of BIM and Lean construction standards, codes, rules, and regulations, Financial support from the government to establish BIM system, Availability of quality, schedule, and cost information during construction with BIM Accuracy and reliability of documents and data and BIM provides knowledge sharing among stakeholders, Workflow, productivity, and efficiency are affected by the transition to BIM, BIM technology reduces cost and time, Conflict detection, integration, coordination, and design validation, and Creating more efficient projects with stakeholder involvement, coordination, and oversight.
Limitations of the investigation: The research sample consisted exclusively of Brazilian professionals and academics with experience in the implementation of BIM in public works.
Practical implications: The proposed framework can be applied in implementation in public construction projects that aims to implement BIM considering the selection of critical success factors and benefits.
Originality / Value: BIM methodology is widely used in the construction industry. However, there are few studies on CSFs and the benefits of BIM for the public sector, and there still lack of implementation frameworks proposal with empirical evidence.

Published: August 2023

Objectives

This study explored the variation in emerging adults’ communication with gastroenterologists around the management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Methods

Nineteen emerging adults with IBD aged 18–25 and seven gastroenterologists participated in the study. Outpatient specialist consultations of consenting participants were audio-recorded and transcribed. Transcribed consultations were analysed in terms of the linguistic structure of the consultations and the gastroenterologist-patient role relationship.

Results

Variations in the emerging adults’ communication with their gastroenterologists stem partly from variation in their ability, opportunity, or need to contribute to the different phases of the consultation and partly from variations in the gastroenterologists’ style of communication. Gastroenterologists differed in the construction of their role relationship with the patient, resulting in variations in employing empowering strategies including eliciting, exploring, and clarifying the patient’s concerns, sharing clinical reasoning, and validating the patient experience. Variations were also observed in the length of appointments and the gastroenterologists’ assessment and addressing of adherence issues. Techniques used by the gastroenterologist varied (1) from simply confirming adherence, to a comprehensive assessment of the patient’s understanding of their management plan and their feedback, and (2) from use of persuasion to values calibration.

Conclusions

Evidence-based consumer interventions and communication guidelines for clinicians are needed to address the identified variations in providing care to emerging adults living with chronic conditions.
RNAcode_Web – Convenient identification of evolutionary conserved protein coding regions
Authors: Anders John , Stadler Peter F.
Published: August 2023

The differentiation of regions with coding potential from non-coding regions remains a key task in computational biology. Methods such as RNAcode that exploit patterns of sequence conservation for this task have a substantial advantage in classification accuracy in particular for short coding sequences, compared to methods that rely on a single input sequence. However, they require sequence alignments as input. Frequently, suitable multiple sequence alignments are not readily available and are tedious, and sometimes difficult to construct. We therefore introduce here a new web service that provides access to the well-known coding sequence detector RNAcode with minimal user overhead. It requires as input only a single target nucleotide sequence. The service automates the collection, selection, and preparation of homologous sequences from the NCBI database, as well as the construction of the multiple sequence alignment that are needed as input for RNAcode. The service automatizes the entire pre- and postprocessing and thus makes the investigation of specific genomic regions for previously unannotated coding regions, such as small peptides or additional introns, a simple task that is easily accessible to non-expert users. RNAcode_Web is accessible online at rnacode.bioinf.uni-leipzig.de.

Authors: Zelei Tamás , Kovács Sándor , Finn Patrick , Nagy Dávid , Sikirica Vanja , Carlson Katherine B. , Vokó Zoltán
Published: August 2023

Glycogen storage disease (GSD) type 1a is an inherited autosomal recessive metabolic disease caused by a deficiency in glucose-6-phosphatase activity. The objectives of this research were to systematically review the published literature on the epidemiology of GSD 1a and to assess the performance of reported epidemiology measures in a simulation model. In this systematic literature review 2,539 record titles and abstracts were screened. Of these, only 11 studies contained relevant data on GSD 1a disease epidemiology. Reported disease frequency ranged from 0.085/100,000 to 10.3/100,000 newborns when considering all the GSD literature. When this was narrowed to GSD 1 and GSD 1a, the range was tightened to 0.25–3.02/100,000 and 0.085–4.9/100,000 newborns, respectively. Most of the identified studies counted the number of diagnoses in a defined period and related to the number of births in the same (Dx method) or different time period (DoB method). The simulation model results indicate that in most of the situations, the Dx method provides a closer estimate to the true disease incidence than the DoB method. Despite the scarcity of epidemiology data, the results of this systematic review strongly support that GSD 1a and its parent disease groups (GSD and GSD 1) are rare diseases.
Defending ‘Islamic Belief’ Against Discrimination: Religious Minority Group Discourse in Indonesia
Authors: Irawan Andi Muhammad , Syurganda Andi , Afdal Zul
Published: August 2023

This paper employs Critical Discourse Analysis to examine resistance discourses as created by the Ahmadiyya followers – a self-defined sect of Islam – to argue against negative discourses undermining them in Indonesia. In some legal proclamations and statements delivered by state officials and the representatives of majority Muslims in the country, the followers of the sect, especially those affiliated to the JAI (Jemaat Ahmadiyya Indonesia) are excluded from Islamic community. By using Van Dijk’s ideological square, this study aims at identifying resistance discourses created by the JAI followers as the defence strategies to oppose negative discourses presenting them as the non-believers of Islam. The resistance discourses are apparent in both written and spoken texts, such as books, articles, speeches, and public debates created by the sect. The finding reveals that the JAI followers create discourses of victim, defender of Islam, imperialism, illegitimacy, and discourse of public deception using various discourse strategies namely victimization, scare tactics, positive attribution, quotation, power delegitimising and negative portraits of misbehaving.
Researching of resistance to etravirine in some HIV-1 low-level viremia strains by in-silico methods
Authors: Oflaz Ofcan , Mergen Hatice , Demir Tülin
Published: August 2023

Objectives

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a significant infection that attacks immune system cells and integrates its genetic material into host cells. Left untreated, it leads to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Antiretroviral therapy (ART) is used to control HIV infection. Etravirine (ETR) is an important non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) utilized in the treatment of HIV. Low-level viremia (LLW) is a serious clinical condition, and the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. The aim of our study is to analyze and elucidate the resistance status of Lys104Gln, Lys102Gln, Lys101Arg-Lys104Arg, Ser191Phe, Ile94Leu-Lys104Arg, Lys104Glu-His235Leu, Ala98Ser and Val179Ile mutations using in-silico methods, which are identified as low-level viremic strains, because their resistance status to ETR is unknown.

Methods

Homology modeling was performed using the Swiss Model program. Molecular docking of ETR with the reverse transcriptase (RT) enzyme was conducted using the CB-Dock program developed by AutoDock Vina. Protein-ligand interaction analysis was carried out using the protein-ligand interaction profiler (PLIP).

Results

A98S and V179I mutations altered the physicochemical properties of the region, resulting in changes to the conformational structure of the NNRTI hydrophobic pocket compared to the wild-type and consequently decreased docking scores.

Conclusions

Based on the evaluation of literature data and in-silico analyses, it is believed that A98S and V179I mutations may alter the conformational structure of the hydrophobic pocket where ETR binds, potentially resulting in low-level resistance against ETR.

Many infectious diseases are ubiquitous and pose persistent adverse effects on public health. Infectious diseases have also been leading causes of high mortality in different periods of history. Real-time monitoring and analysis of global infectious disease transmission can provide a comprehensive understanding of critical information regarding the transmission routes, scope, velocity, and effects of viruses or bacteria. Here, using Shusi Tech’s Global Epidemic Information Monitoring System, we analyzed the prevalence of infectious diseases worldwide. We describe types of infectious diseases with relatively low incidence from 24 June 2023 to 23 July 2023 as comprehensibly as possible.

Published: August 2023

Waste pollution resulting from the production process of synthetic batik dyes is against the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the aspects of waste management systems and clean water. One effort to cut down the amount of pollution is the use of natural dyes for coloring batik clothes. This undertaking is not only healthy but also expected to bring in some added value economically, community empowerment, and intergenerational inheritance. This experimental research was carried out collaboratively between the Textile and Batik Craft Studio at the Indonesian University of Education, the Umymay Batik Studio, and the Yogyakarta Batik and Craft Center. A batik cloth was dyed 5 times with a mango seed extract solution as the dependent variable, then fixed with lime solution (Ca(OH)2) and Ferrous Sulfate solution (FeSO4.7H2O) as the independent variables. The dyed fabrics were tested for their colorfastness against washing and sun exposure. The results of the study: 1) The process of dyeing the batik cloth was performed through several stages, that is, by cutting the cloth with a canting stamp, dyeing the cloth, and fixing it with Ca(OH)2 and FeSO4.7H2O, the batik cloth fixed with Ca(OH)2 tended to be brown in color while the other one fixed with FeSO4.7H2O resulted in black; 2) The results of the Color Fastness Test against Washing at 40℃ on the batik cloth that has been dyed with mango seed extract fixed with Ca(OH)2 and FeSO4.7H2O were considered a good category with respective values of 4 on a scale of 5. Likewise, the results of the Color Resistance to Light: Day Light Ray Resistant Test Value with the fixation of Ca(OH)2 and FeSO4.7H2O was in the moderate category with a value of 3 each on a scale of 5. There should be a governmental policy to promote a green industry. As for batik artisans, they can utilize an eco-friendly alternative dye for batik clothes.

Material and methods. We examined 23 patients with chronic critical illness who were in a minimally conscious state (MCS) with 10.9±2.5 scores on the FOUR (Full Outline of Unresponsiveness) Score Coma Scale. Indicators of carbohydrate, lipid, protein and energy exchange metabolism were evaluated using specimens sampled in the morning hours. Nutritional support was provided by isocaloric isonitrogenic mixtures.

Results. Blood biochemistry showed decreases in total protein and albumin levels in 86.9% and 91.3% of patients, respectively. The tests also revealed decreased concentrations of several amino acids, including essential amino acids: histidine (38.3±13.07 µmol/l), methionine (12.68±3.81 µmol/l), threonine (61.6 [58.5;

87.7] µmol/l), tryptophan (33.06±15.95 µmol/l), and non-essential amino acids: arginine (40.50 [22.2; 46.9] µmol/l), glutamic acid (124.5±39.29 µmol/l), tyrosine (37.97±10.12 µmol/l). Some correlations between the concentrations of individual amino acids and other indicators were revealed, such as histidine and CRP (r=–0.68, P=0.043), tryptophan and CRP (r=–0.86, P=0.002), histidine and leukocyte count (r=–0.76, P=0.015), methionine and lysine (r=0.88, P=0.008), methionine and patient's weight (r=–0.68, P=0.042). A relationship between threonine concentration and the level of consciousness on the FOUR scale (r=–0.73, P=0.037) was also found. All patients demonstrated significant alterations of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.

Conclusion. Alteration of adequate protein metabolism seems to be the most affected constituent in the nutritional status of patients with chronic critical illness. It is manifested by a decrease in the concentration of total protein and a number of essential and non-essential amino acids, which implies the importance of highprotein nutritional support and correction of the amino acid profile.
Features of Mechanical Lung Ventilation During Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy in Patients with Different Body Mass Index
Authors: Kazakov A. S. , Grebenchikov O. A. , Ershov A. V.
Published: August 2023

The aim of the study. To evaluate effects of carboxyperitoneum and steep Trendenburg position on respiratory biomechanics and gas exchange indicators in patients with different body mass index (BMI) during robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RRP). To develop an algorithm for choosing the optimal mechanical lung ventilation (MLV) regimen. 

Materials and methods. The study included 141 patients with verified prostate cancer who were candidates for RPR. Participants were divided into 2 groups based on BMI: group I included 88 patients with BMI30 kg/m2, group II — 53 patients with BMI30 kg/m2. Indicators of respiratory biomechanics and gas exchange during ventilation in various modes (Volume Controlled Ventilation (VCV), Pressure Controlled Ventilation (PCV), Pressure Controlled– Inverse Ratio Ventilation (PC-IRV) were analyzed in each group at 5 consecutive stages of the procedure.

Results. The key parameters evidencing the effectiveness and safety of MLV during RRP procedure did not vary significantly under various ventilation regimens in the group of patients with a BMI30 kg/m2. Whilst in obese patients the use of VCV mode resulted in a significant increase of airway peak pressure (Ppeak) already at the stage of placing them into a steep Trendelenburg position (35°), thus endangering with the development of ventilator-induced lung injury. Increased Ppeak was also accompanied by the drop in oxygen saturation and significantly lower SpO₂ values, starting from the stage of applying carboxyperitoneum and until the end of surgical intervention.

Conclusion. In non-obese patients, there’s no particular ventilator regimen that is crucial for achieving the safety and effectiveness of RRP anesthesia management, all regimens can be used. In patients with BMI30 kg/m2 PCV regimen and PC-IRV with inhalation/exhalation ratio of 1.5:1  can be considered as the optimal strategy for MLV during anesthesia for RRP surgery.
Developmental Trajectories of Autism

Published: August 2023

OBJECTIVES

The goal of this study was to describe the typical, longitudinal, developmental trajectories of communication and social functioning in individuals with autism spectrum disorder from childhood through adulthood and to determine the correlates of these trajectories.

METHODS

Children with autism spectrum disorder who were born in California from 1992 through 2016 and enrolled with the California Department of Developmental Services were identified. Subjects with <4 evaluations in the database were excluded, resulting in a sample of 71 285 individuals. Score sequences were constructed based on evaluative items for communication and social functioning. Typical trajectories were identified using group-based latent trajectory modeling, and logistic regression was used to determine the odds of classification into a social adolescent decline trajectory by individual-, family-, and zip code-level factors.

RESULTS

Six typical patterns of communication functioning and 7 typical patterns of social functioning were identified. Whereas the majority of autistic individuals exhibit improved communication functioning as they age, the majority of individuals exhibit steady social functioning. A small group of individuals (5.0%) exhibits high social functioning in childhood that declines in adolescence. Membership in this adolescent decline group is associated with maternal non-Hispanic white race and ethnicity, female sex, moderate levels of maternal education, lower zip code-level median home values and population density, and higher zip code-level inequality.

CONCLUSIONS

Most autistic individuals show improved communication and social functioning as they age, but not all do. Trajectory group membership is correlated with socioeconomic status. Future research should investigate what drives these correlations.

Published: August 2023

This paper aims to experimentally investigate the interaction between a bubble and a plate with
multiple holes. The bubble is generated under the plate by underwater electric discharge method,
and the top surface of the plate is flush with the water-air interface. In order to reveal the bubble
dynamics and the droplets formation caused by bubble oscillation, the interaction process is recorded
by high-speed photography. Similar to the interaction between bubble and plate with a single hole,
there exist two jets, the primary slow jet and the secondary fast jet, caused by bubble expansion and
collapse, respectively. The former starts to be pumped out as liquid columns and breaks up into fine
droplets over time, while the latter erupts directly as droplets with more instability. As the distance
between bubble and porous plate decreases, the speed of droplets increases and the velocity difference
in droplets through different holes becomes greater. Besides, with the longer oscillation time the
bubble is less likely to detach from the plate, and its maximum volume will be larger than expected.
The effects of plate thickness and hole diameter on bubble dynamics and droplets formation are also
investigated. Increasing the plate thickness and decreasing the hole diameter make the porous plate
have a similar effect as the rigid wall. In this case, the bubble tends to migrate to the plate and
inside the bubble, a jet toward the solid boundary will be generated. The amount of liquid being
squeezed out through holes is reduced and the liquid columns are more likely to break up into sprays.
In contrast, decreasing the plate thickness and increasing the hole diameter enhance the effect of
free liquid on the bubble dynamics. Also, the efficiency of the oscillating bubble to pump liquids has
increased.

The application of nanofluids in heat exchangers has been established to be beneficial in augmenting heat transfer performance. This study presents an experimental investigation of the performance of a heat exchanger using a water/Al2O3-SiO2 nanofluid under constant heat flux condition. The nanofluid, consisting of well-stabilized nanoparticles, was applied at concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 0.025 vol.%. By systematically varying the Reynold's number from 6,000 to 24,000, the effects of the Reynold's number and concentration on the average Nusselt numbers and friction factor were analyzed. The results indicate that the addition of nanoparticles significantly enhances both the average Nusselt number and friction factor. At a Reynolds number of 24,000, the hybrid nanofluid with a concentration of 0.025 vol.% exhibited a maximum increase of 13.57% in the average Nusselt number and a 10.08% increase in the friction factor compared to using water alone. Sensitivity analysis revealed that concentration had a more pronounced impact on the average Nusselt number and friction factor than Reynold's number. Various figures of merits determined the thermal performance of the heated tube. The study proposes new correlations with high accuracies (R2 > 99%) to predict these parameters. Based on the findings, the use of hybrid nanofluid is recommended for enhancing heat transfer applications. However, it is important to consider the potential increase in pumping power requirements associated with nanoparticles.

Single-board computers, such as Raspberry Pi, have enabled a wide variety of monitoring applications. Microcontroller development boards offer a similar functionality but at a lower cost. Still, they are not widely used, because they are supposed to be slow. This paper aims to evaluate the abilities of modern microcontrollers and compares them with those of single-board computers. For this purpose, experiments concerning power consumption and performance evaluation are conducted. The results suggest that promising low-cost microcontrollers exist, which could be applied to reduce cost and energy consumption per node or increase the number of nodes used simultaneously in one monitoring system.

Published: August 2023

Purpose: This study investigates the comovements of inflation across ASEAN countries and identifies the global factors driving the common inflation dynamics of the region. Design/methodology/approach: The study uses a two-step approach. The dynamic latent factor model is first employed to estimate the common inflation of the region in the period between 2000Q1 and 2022Q2. In the second step, a bound test approach to autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) methodology is employed to estimate the model of common inflation, which is constructed based on the aggregate supply - aggregate demand (AS-AD) framework. Findings: The study finds a common factor of inflation across ASEAN countries. The analysis of variance decomposition indicates the significant role of common inflation in the variations of individual countries' inflation. World economic growth, oil price change, non-fuel commodity price change, and trade openness are the main drivers of ASEAN common inflation in both short and long terms. Research limitations/implications: The study focuses mainly on supply-side factors, although some demand-side factors are involved. Future studies should pay more concerns on the trade linkages among regional countries and the similarities in goals in the region. Originality/value: The study examines the common inflation component across ASEAN countries, which has not been sufficiently investigated. It also evaluates the drivers at the global level of common inflation, which has limited empirical evidence.
DEVELOPING SUSTAINABILITY BY REDISCOVERING THE CONCEPT OF AUTHENTICITY

Published: August 2023

In the past few decades, the concept of sustainability has entered almost all spheres of human activity while having an impact on environmental, economic, and social issues. Its definition varies from field to field adopting its meaning to different aspects, viewpoints, and conjectures. The polysemantic character of the concept requires a deeper insight into the intrinsic meaning of the notion itself. A proposition has been made to view sustainability from the aspect of a tourist destination. Namely, the objective of this article is to reconsider the concept of sustainability from the linguistical and etymological point of view by connecting it to the notion of authenticity in tourism. The authors consider that the lack of authenticity is a main drawback and an impediment to a true manifestation of sustainable development`s real nature in the future. This article thus argues that, if we omit to recognize the essentiality of sustainability as a concept, the mechanisms necessary for its implementation may be perceived as imposed, rigid, and ethically inconsistent.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the role of digital transformation (DT) and how it helps companies to face the challenges of a competitive dynamic market. Digital business transformation is a necessity for companies that want to survive in the modern world. Contemporary conditions of market competition are characterized by the digitization of economies and its current progress, as well as all related consequential changes in that process. Digital transformation changes the business organization in all segments and affects not only companies, but also society, the environment and institutions. In this paper, we discuss the hotel sector and listed some of the examples used to shed light on how digital transformation has affected business and contributed to sustainable development. The goal of the research was to point out the need for rapid digital transformation in the hotel industry, and to emphasize the importance of sustainable development in tourism using the benefits that digital transformation provides. In its initial part, the paper will provide an overview of the current literature on digital transformation and a definition of the mentioned terminology. The second section of the paper discusses the status of digital transformation in the hotel industry and its positive impact on sustainable development. In the latter section of the paper limitations are provided, and implications for future research are considered.

Evaluation of GLP-2 receptor expression in gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors

Background and Aims: Neuroendocrine tumors arise from cells of the neuroendocrine system. These cells show both nerve and endocrine cell characteristics and can be found in many organs in the body. GLP-1 and GLP-2 are released from intestinal L cells in a 1:1 ratio following food intake. GLP-2 receptor recognizes GLP-2. GLP-2 receptor mRNA transcripts have been detected in the stomach, small and large intestine, brain, and lung. The proliferative effect of GLP-2 has been demonstrated in mice, rats, pigs, and humans by administering exogenous GLP-2. The objective is to evalaute the relation between gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors and glukagon like peptid-2 and GLP-2 receptor. Materials and Methods: The patients, who were pathologically diagnosed with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumor between 2006-2009 were included in the study. There were 47 patients (27 females, 20 males, avarage age: 54 ± 15.5) in the study. There were also 46 control group patients (25 females, 21 males, avarage age: 57.5 ± 14.8). Pathological tissue blocks prepared on poly-L-lysine microscope slides were stained by GLP-2 receptor antibody (1:100 - 1:200, 1 mg/ml) immunohistochemical stain. Results: GLP-2 receptor positivity of colon neuroendocrine tumor group was 30% (4/13) and colon control group was %100. GLP-2 receptor positivity of pancreas neuroendocrine tumor group was 25% (3/12) while it was 100% in pancreas control group. The comparison of colon neuroendocrine tumor and control group showed significant difference (p: 0.003). The comparison of pancreas neuroendocrine tumor and control group also showed statistically significant difference (p < 0.001). The comparison of gastric neuroendocrine tumor with the control yielded comparable results (p: 0.22). Conclusions: We concluded that GLP-2 receptor cannot be as useful as somatostatin receptors in diagnosis and treatment of these tumors. More studies are needed on this subject with different methods.

Authors: Topcu Yavuz , Güler Tuba
Published: August 2023

Araştırmanın amacı, mahreç işaretli Erzurum Kadayıf Dolmasının içsel ve dışsal niteliklerine dayalı ürün profillerinden mamul içeriği ile üretim tekniği simülasyonlarına göre tüketicilerin ödeme istekliliklerini (WTP) belirlemek ve tüketici memnuniyeti odaklı pazarlama stratejileri oluşturmaktır. Bu amaçla, Erzurum ilinde ikamet eden ve Erzurum Kadayıf Dolması tüketen tüketicilerden elde edilen birincil veriler ana materyal olarak kullanılmıştır. Araştırma metodu olarak, tüketim sıklıklarına göre homojen tüketici kitlelerini oluşturmak için kümeleme analizi ve her bir kitlenin toplam faydası hesaplanmış ve ödeme istekliliğini (WTP) belirlemek için Conjoint Analiz (CA) tabanlı seçim modeli kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonuçları, yoğun ve düşük düzeyde Erzurum Kadayıf Dolması tüketen tüketiciler için ceviz içi ile hazırlanmış ev tipi kadayıf dolmaları için yüksek fiyattan WTP önemli ölçüde kabul görmüştür, fakat ılımlı düzeyde tüketenler için ise düşük fiyattan WTP duyarlılığı ön plana çıkmıştır. Fiyat duyarlılığı yüksek olan kitleler için ürün içeriği bakımından mamul farklılaştırması genişletilmeli ve pastane satış noktalarında tüketicilerin hizmetlerine sunulmalıdır. Ancak fiyat duyarlılığı düşük olan kitleler için ceviz içi ile tasarlanmış ev tipi kadayıf dolmaları, imalatçı satış mağazalarında yoğun bir şekilde satışa sunulmalıdır.
