Ever after: a price story – afterlife belief salience’s effect on willingness to pay
Authors: Xu Huimin , Leung Ada 
Published: October 2019

PurposeThis paper aims to advance understanding regarding a particular religious belief and buying behavior.Design/methodology/approachTwo online experiments were conducted among diverse respondents. Study 1 used a one-way, between-subjects design with three conditions: afterlife salience, control and mortality salience. The dependent measure was built on the notion of first-price sealed-bid auction. Study 2 used a similar procedure with two conditions: afterlife salience and control. Mortality was made salient in both conditions.FindingsMaking afterlife salient boosted the willingness to pay. This effect did not result from mortality salience, which suggests that this research is a unique contribution beyond works rooted in Terror Management Theory. This effect was mediated through positive product thoughts.Originality/valueThere has long been an imbalance between theoretical speculation concerning religion and cognition and actual empirical documentation. The present research adds to the emerging body of empirical investigations into this relation. It contributes to the conceptual richness of the stream of literature by examining one aspect of religiosity that has rarely been studied: the belief in afterlife. In addition, the findings go beyond correlational patterns toward discovering nonobvious cause and effect. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this research is one of the few works that experimentally manipulate the notion of afterlife belief. This research also extends the understanding of pricing and willingness to pay by identifying a subtle environmental influence not recognized before.
Healthy lifestyle and food waste behavior
Authors: Savelli Elisabetta , Francioni Barbara , Curina Ilaria 
Published: October 2019

Purpose
This paper aims to address the food waste phenomenon by investigating the relationship between healthy lifestyle and food waste intensity and by considering the mediating role of food waste preventing behavior on such a relationship.

Design/methodology/approach
Based on an online survey of 1,941 UK millennial consumers, the research hypotheses were tested using the PLS-PM approach to structural equation model.

Findings
The results reveal that both the consumption of healthy food and the habit of eating at home enhance food waste reduction. Moreover, the findings corroborate the mediating effect of the food waste preventing behavior on the relationship between a healthy lifestyle and food waste intensity, thus underlying its role as an effective mechanism able to improve the influence of healthy lifestyle dimensions on food waste intensity.

Practical implications
The paper offers three levels of practical implications directed to public institutions, private manufacturers and retailers.

Social implications
The study underlines the key relevance of ad hoc educational programs aimed at improving the overall awareness of young consumers about food waste damages, by specifically identifying the main features on which these programs should focus.

Originality/value
This paper adds knowledge by helping to explain how and why a healthier lifestyle could translate into food waste reduction. Moreover, the study offers a comprehensive understanding of preventing behavior by proposing a rich overview of strategies to adopt to avoid food waste.

Authors: Pagliosa Marcos , Tortorella Guilherme , Ferreira Joao Carlos Espindola 
Published: October 2019

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to aim at identifying the relationships between Industry 4.0 (I4.0) technologies and Lean Manufacturing (LM) practices.Design/methodology/approachA systematic literature review was conducted, in which 93 studies were analyzed according to their content and contextualization level.FindingsIn total, 9 I4.0 technologies and 14 LM practices were identified and categorized according to different levels of both value stream application and synergy. From the 126 pairwise relationships, 24 were classified as being of high synergy (e.g. relationship between Cyber-Physical Systems and value stream mapping), revealing the existence of a positive interaction between LPs and I4.0 technologies toward the achievement of a higher operational performance. Further, three future research opportunities were suggested: to validate the proposed synergies among LPs and I4.0 technologies; to distinguish the effects of relationships on all levels of flow; and to examine the effect of such relationships on operational performance.Originality/valueWith the emergence of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the specificities on the relationship between LM and I4.0 still need further investigation. This paper provides a better understanding of existing literature related to I4.0, LM, and their relationship, as well as pointing out research gaps to encourage future works.
Dynamic vehicle routing problem considering simultaneous dual services in the last mile delivery
Authors: He Yandong , Wang Xu , Zhou Fuli , Lin Yun 
Published: October 2019

PurposeThis paper aims to study the vehicle routing problem with dynamic customers considering dual service (including home delivery [HD] and customer pickup [CP]) in the last mile delivery in which three decisions have to be made: determine routes that lie along the HD points and CP facilities; optimize routes in real time, which mode is better between simultaneous dual service (SDS, HD points and CP facilities are served simultaneously by the same vehicle); and respective dual service (RDS, HD points and CP facilities are served by different vehicles)?Design/methodology/approachThis paper establishes a mixed integer linear programing model for the dynamic vehicle routing problem considering simultaneous dual services (DVRP-SDS). To increase the practical usefulness and solve large instances, the authors designed a two-phase matheuristic including construction-improvement heuristics to solve the deterministic model and dynamic programing to adjust routes to dynamic customers.FindingsThe computational experiments show that the CP facilities offer greater flexibility for adjusting routes to dynamic customers and that the SDS delivery system outperforms the RDS delivery system in terms of cost and number of vehicles used.Practical implicationsThe results provide managerial insights for express enterprises from the perspective of operation research to make decisions.Originality/valueThis paper is among the first papers to study the DVRP-SDS. Moreover, this paper guides the managers to select better delivery mode in the last mile delivery.
Impact of urban regeneration on commercial property values in Osogbo, Osun State, Nigeria
Authors: Ekemode Benjamin Gbolahan 
Published: October 2019

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to assess the effect of urban regeneration and renewal activities initiated by the Osun State Government in Nigeria on the rental values of commercial properties in Osogbo, the state capital between 2008, before the urban renewal programme through 2017, after the urban renewal programme had been completed.

Design/methodology/approach
Primary data utilised for this study were collected from all the Estate Surveying and Valuation firms involved in the formal management of commercial properties in Osogbo, Osun-State, Nigeria. Information on the types of urban infrastructure renewed and rental values of 63 commercial properties from 2008 to 2017 were obtained from the sampled estate surveying and valuation firms practicing in the study area. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, analysis of variance and Duncan post hoc test.

Findings
The findings showed that physical urban infrastructure such as roads, drainages, water supply and wastes disposal have been upgraded in the study area. Also, the study established that the urban regeneration programme had significant impact on the rental values of commercial properties in Osogbo, arising from the statistically significant difference (F(7, 600) = 22.264, p<0.000) between and within annual rental values of commercial properties in the study area. The annual rental values of the commercial properties also exhibited considerable variation based on the Duncan post hoc test.

Practical implications
The findings from this study indicate that urban regeneration programme by the Osun state Government has significantly increased the investment performance of commercial properties in the study area. Hence, while investors could achieve higher returns on investment by venturing into commercial property investment, revenue could also be generated for government through the collection of property taxes in the study area.

Originality/value
This study is one of the few studies that have analysed the effect of urban regeneration programme on commercial property values from the perspective of an emerging African economy, using data from Osun State, Nigeria.
The promise of behavioral economics for understanding decision‐making in the court
Authors: Wilson Theodore 
Published: October 2019

Research SummaryDecision‐making scholars often limit their purview to the decision to offend, whereas sentencing scholars focus on court case processing within administrative data sets. What is missing between these two camps is an incorporation of the sanctioning process into offender decision‐making and an integration of relevant findings from offender decision‐making and behavioral economics into courtroom actor decision‐making. In this article, I highlight several specific concepts from behavioral economics that can be applied to the court and interpret existing sentencing research in light of these same behavioral economic concepts.Policy ImplicationsI also discuss how sentencing scholarship can be integrated into offender decision‐making research, further bridging the two domains. I conclude with discussions of policy adaptations based on current and future research expanding into these proposed areas.
The demographics of persistent opioid consumption following limb amputation
Authors: Steen Talora , Lirk Philipp B. , Sigurdsson Martin I. 
Published: October 2019

BackgroundPatients who have limb amputation are at risk of chronic pain, including phantom limb pain that can be challenging to treat. The aim of this study was to describe the incidence of pre‐operative opioid usage and the incidence and risk factors for new persistent post‐operative opioid usage in opioid‐naïve patients after limb amputation.MethodsA retrospective study of all patients 18 years and older underwent upper or lower extremity amputations in Landspitali University Hospital between 2005 and 2015. Patients were considered to use opioids pre‐operatively if they filled an opioid prescription 1‐6 months prior to amputation and were considered to have persistent opioid use if opioid prescriptions were filled between post‐operative months four to twenty‐four. In addition to incidence estimate, uni‐ and multivariate analysis was performed to identify risk factors for persistent post‐operative opioid usage.ResultsOf 328 total patients, 216 (66%) were opioid naïve and 112 (34%) were chronic opioid users. Of the opioid‐naïve patients surviving more than 3 months 40 (20%) developed persistent post‐operative opioid usage. In multivariate analysis, factors independently associated with persistent post‐operative opioid usage were younger age, male gender, pre‐operative use of neuropathic medications or benzodiazepines and lower (opposed to upper) extremity amputation.ConclusionOpioid naïve patients undergoing major amputation had a 20% chance of having a persistent opioid requirement following surgery. This could represent new‐onset phantom limb pain or other chronic pain. Our findings should encourage perioperative multimodal efforts to reduce the burden of chronic pain after limb amputations.
Intubation rate, duration of noninvasive ventilation and mortality after noninvasive neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NIV‐NAVA)
Authors: Hansen Kristina K. , Jensen Hanne I. , Andersen Torben S. , Christiansen Christian F. 
Published: October 2019

BackgroundAsynchrony is a common problem in patients treated with noninvasive ventilation (NIV). Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) has shown to improve patient‐ventilator interaction. However, it is unknown whether NIV‐NAVA improves outcomes compared to noninvasive pressure support (NIV‐PS).MethodsThis observational cohort study included patients 18 years or older receiving noninvasive ventilation using an oro‐nasal face mask for more than 2 hours in a Danish ICU. The study included a NIV‐NAVA cohort (year 2013‐2015) and two comparison cohorts: (a) a historical NIV‐PS cohort (year 2011‐2012) before the implementation of NIV‐NAVA at the ICU in 2013, and (b) a concurrent NIV‐PS cohort (year 2013‐2015). Outcomes of NIV‐NAVA (intubation rate, duration of NIV and 90‐day mortality) were assessed and compared using multivariable linear and logistic regression adjusted for relevant confounders.ResultsThe study included 427 patients (91 in the NIV‐NAVA, 134 in the historic NIV‐PS and 202 in the concurrent NIV‐PS cohort). Patients treated with NIV‐NAVA did not have improved outcome after adjustment for measured confounders. Actually, there were statistically imprecise higher odds for intubation in NIV‐NAVA patients compared with both the historical [OR 1.48, CI (0.74‐2.97)] and the concurrent NIV‐PS cohort [OR 1.67, CI (0.87‐3.19)]. NIV‐NAVA might also have a longer length of NIV [63%, CI (19%‐125%)] and [139%, CI (80%‐213%)], and might have a higher 90‐day mortality [OR 1.24, CI (0.69‐2.25)] and [OR 1.39, CI (0.81‐2.39)]. Residual confounding cannot be excluded.ConclusionThis present study found no improved clinical outcomes in patients treated with NIV‐NAVA compared to NIV‐PS.
The Psychopharmacology Algorithm Project at the Harvard South Shore Program: An update on bipolar depression
Authors: Wang Dana , Osser David N. 
Published: October 2019

AbstractBackgroundThe Psychopharmacology Algorithm Project at the Harvard South Shore Program (PAPHSS) published algorithms for bipolar depression in 1999 and 2010. Developments over the past 9 years suggest that another update is needed.MethodsThe 2010 algorithm and associated references were reevaluated. A literature search was conducted on PubMed for recent studies and review articles to see what changes in the recommendations were justified. Exceptions to the main algorithm for special patient populations, including those with attention‐deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance use disorders, anxiety disorders, and women of childbearing potential, and those with common medical comorbidities were considered.ResultsElectroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is still the first‐line option for patients in need of urgent treatment. Five medications are recommended for early usage in acute bipolar depression, singly or in combinations when monotherapy fails, the order to be determined by considerations such as side effect vulnerability and patient preference. The five are lamotrigine, lurasidone, lithium, quetiapine, and cariprazine. After trials of these, possible options include antidepressants (bupropion and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are preferred) or valproate (very small evidence‐base). In bipolar II depression, the support for antidepressants is a little stronger but depression with mixed features and rapid cycling would usually lead to further postponement of antidepressants. Olanzapine+fluoxetine, though Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved for bipolar depression, is not considered until beyond this point, due to metabolic side effects. The algorithm concludes with a table of other possible treatments that have some evidence.ConclusionsThis revision incorporates the latest FDA‐approved treatments (lurasidone and cariprazine) and important new studies and organizes the evidence systematically.
Identification of essential exported Plasmodium falciparum protein kinases in malaria‐infected red blood cells
Authors: Siddiqui Ghizal , Proellochs Nicholas I. , Cooke Brian M. 
Published: October 2019

SummaryFIKK kinases in the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum are attractive targets for new anti‐malaria drugs, as they have no orthologues in humans and have been linked to disease severity. Six FIKKs are known to be exported into red blood cells (RBCs) where they mediate dramatic structural and functional changes to RBCs that are central to pathogenesis. Eleven members of this family, which are predicted to be exported into infected RBCs (iRBCs), remain uncharacterised. Using a targeted gene‐knockout approach, we have characterised these FIKKs and discovered that five are essential for parasite survival. Three of these five FIKKs (FIKK9.1, FIKK10.1, FIKK10.2) were exported from the parasite into iRBCs and for two of these (FIKK9.1 and FIKK10.1), export was via Maurer’s clefts (parasite‐derived structures involved in protein trafficking and pathognomonic of falciparum malaria). Of the remaining two essential kinases, FIKK3 was associated with rhoptries (specialised protein secretory organelles in the parasite) and FIKK9.5 was localised in the parasite nucleus. The diverse localisation and essentiality of these FIKKs demonstrate that they play different but essential roles in the survival of P. falciparum in RBCs and therefore are attractive new drug targets for the prevention or treatment of falciparum malaria.
Exploring young people’s experiences and perceptions of mental health and well‐being using photography
Authors: Charles Ashleigh , Felton Anne 
Published: October 2019

IntroductionThe mental health of young people is a major global public health concern. A shift in focus towards children and young people’s mental health in the UK has emphasized young people’s voices, as of paramount importance in shaping the path for future quality care provision. The paper examines a study that aimed to explore young people’s perceptions of mental health and well‐being using photographs.MethodThe methodology employed for this study placed young people at the centre of the research process by using photographs to capture their experiences. Ten young people who attended a youth group used disposable cameras to take photographs of their experiences and perceptions of mental health and well‐being. Semi‐structured interviews with the young people elicited their narratives behind the images. Data were analysed using photo‐elicitation and thematic analysis.FindingsYoung people’s experiences of mental health and well‐being were internalized and located predominantly in the private and hidden regions of their everyday lives. Stigma, social isolation and marginalization were prevalent whilst spirituality and connection with the environment expressed hope.ConclusionMental health appears to be firmly located in the private ‘back regions’ of young individuals’ lives, demonstrating that young people conceptualize these experiences as a vulnerable and hidden part of their being. Understanding the needs of this new generation of youth including the prevalence of stigma, risk of isolation and social exclusion are paramount. Future service provision needs to recognize the extent stigma impacts upon young people’s experiences of mental health and well‐being.
Resistance of soil biota and plant growth to disturbance increases with plant diversity

Published: October 2019

AbstractPlant diversity is critical to the functioning of ecosystems, potentially mediated in part by interactions with soil biota. Here, we characterised multiple groups of soil biota across a plant diversity gradient in a long‐term experiment. We then subjected soil samples taken along this gradient to drought, freezing and a mechanical disturbance to test how plant diversity affects the responses of soil biota and growth of a focal plant to these disturbances. High plant diversity resulted in soils that were dominated by fungi and associated soil biota, including increased arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and reduced plant‐feeding nematodes. Disturbance effects on the soil biota were reduced when plant diversity was high, resulting in higher growth of the focal plant in all but the frozen soils. These results highlight the importance of plant diversity for soil communities and their resistance to disturbance, with potential feedback effects on plant productivity.
A potential barrier to adherence? Memory for future intentions is impaired in hemodialysis patients

Published: October 2019

AbstractIntroductionEnd‐stage renal disease (ESRD) has been associated with a range of cognitive deficits, including impaired retrospective memory and attention. Prospective memory (PM) is memory for future intentions, such as remembering to take medication on time. Prospective memory has not been examined in any ESRD patients; yet, the implications upon diet and medication management could potentially have detrimental effects on patient welfare. This is the first study to examine PM in ESRD patients being treated with hemodialysis (HD).MethodsHemodialysis patients (n = 18) were compared with age‐matched and education‐matched controls (n = 18) on a boardgame task that emulates a typical week of activities (i.e., grocery shopping, meetings with friends), requiring the participant to remember a series of upcoming tasks. Other measures were also examined, including general cognitive decline, measures of independent living, IQ, and mood.FindingsPatients recalled significantly fewer upcoming events than the control group, suggesting an impairment of PM. No significant relationship was found between PM performance and any other measures, suggesting the difference between groups is likely due to the effects of ESRD, HD treatment, or some associated comorbidity.DiscussionThis is the first study to demonstrate a PM deficit in patients undergoing HD treatment. This finding contributes to the current knowledge of the cognitive profile of patients undergoing HD while also highlighting the implications that a PM deficit may have on patient quality of life. The finding may go some way to explaining variances in patients' ability to monitor and adhere to medication and dietary regimes and, ultimately, to live independently. The study also highlights the necessity of viewing treatment for ESRD as a holistic process to maximize patient well‐being.
Study on the interfacial properties of active Ti element/ZrO2 by using first principle calculation
Authors: Guo Weibing , Xue Haitao , Wei Xin , Zhang Xiaoming 
Published: October 2019

AbstractTi element is an important active element in brazing Zirconia ceramic (ZrO2) ceramic. Therefore, the interface bonding mechanism of Ti and ZrO2 was studied by using first principles calculation. Two kinds of interfaces with different termination and stacking sequence were established, and the interfacial bonding mechanism was studied using work of adhesion (Wad), electronic behavior and interface energy. The results show that in the O‐terminated interface, Ti and O form a strong ion‐covalent bond at the interface, and the Wad can reach 13.61 J/m2. In the Zr‐terminated interface, Ti and Zr form a metal‐covalent bond, and the Wad is 5.56 J/m2. At a temperature of 1123K, when the lnPO2 is larger than e−17, the O‐rich interface is more stable in thermodynamics. Therefore, under the experimental condition, the interface tends to form Ti‐O compounds when ZrO2 is brazed using Ag(Ti) filler metal.
