Insights for luxury retailers to reach customers globally
Authors: Jebarajakirthy Charles , Yadav Rambalak , Shankar Amit 
Published: March 2020

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to investigate whether customer intention to purchase luxury products from the online stores of fashion luxury retailers varies depending on their degree of corporate image and showrooming strategy, when the retailers do not have a wider store network in the region where customers live.Design/methodology/approachTwo scenario-based, between-subject experimental studies were conducted to test the hypotheses.FindingsFindings showed that both building corporate image and showrooms are effective in enhancing customer intention to purchase from online stores, without widely increasing the number of stores; however, building corporate image is more useful to high corporate-image retailers and showrooms are more appealing to low corporate-image retailers.Practical implicationsThe findings are useful to fashion luxury retailers, particularly those based in Western countries who seek to target customers in other regions, particularly those in developing countries.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the literature on online fashion luxury consumption and multichannel retailing.
Moderating effects of socio-cultural values on pro-environmental behaviors
Authors: Koon Olivia , Chan Ricky Y.K. , Sharma Piyush 
Published: March 2020

PurposeThis paper aims to explain the discrepancy between pro-environmental intentions and behaviors with moderating effects of two socio-cultural values (espoused individualism and faith in others) on the link between intentions and actual behaviors to save electricity.Design/methodology/approachAn online survey of 303 consumers in Hong Kong with a structured questionnaire was used to collect the data to test all the hypothesized relationships.FindingsAttitude toward saving electricity has a significant positive effect on the intentions to save electricity, but subjective norms and perceived behavioral control have no such effect on intentions but do positively affect the actual electricity saving behavior. Finally, the link between intentions and behavior to save electricity is negatively moderated by espoused individualism and positively by faith in others.Research limitations/implicationsThis study was conducted with a sample of consumers in Hong Kong; hence, its findings may not be generalizable to other countries.Originality/valueThis study provides new insights into the link between pro-environmental intentions and behaviors by looking beyond the theory of planned behavior and exploring the moderating role of socio-cultural values on the intention-behavior link.
Social network influences on employee responses to organizational withdrawals
Authors: Siedlok Frank , Hibbert Paul , Whitehurst Fiona 
Published: March 2020

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to develop a more detailed understanding of how embedding in different social networks relates to different types of action that individuals choose in the context of organizational closures, downsizing or relocations. To develop such insights, this paper focuses on three particular types of social networks, namely, intra-organizational; external professional and local community networks. These three types of networks have been frequently related to different types of action in the context of closures and relocations.Design/methodology/approachThis is a conceptual paper. The authors develop the argument by integrating relevant recent literature on the salience related to embedding in different types of social networks, with a particular focus on responses to organizational closure or relocation.FindingsThe authors argue that at times of industrial decline and closure: embeddedness in intra-organizational networks can favor collective direct action; embeddedness in professional networks is likely to favor individual direct action and embeddedness in community networks can lead to individual indirect action. The authors then add nuance to the argument by considering a range of complicating factors that can constrain or enable the course (s) of action favored by particular combinations of network influences.Originality/valueOn a theoretical level, this paper adds to understandings of the role of network embeddedness in influencing individual and collective responses to such disruptive events; and direct or indirect forms of response. On a practical level, the authors contribute to understandings about how the employment landscape may evolve in regions affected by organizational demise, and how policymakers may study with or through network influences to develop more responsible downsizing approaches.
Does entrepreneurs’ risk perception influence firm’s rapidity in foreign market entry through moderation of entrepreneurial decision-making approach?
Authors: Alam Md. Nur , Masroor Imtiaz , Nabi Md. Noor Un 
Published: March 2020

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to find out whether risk perception can affect rapidity in international market entry. Also, this paper tries to find out whether the decision-making approach, effectuation, can moderate the pathway between risk tolerance and internationalization speed.Design/methodology/approachA hypothetico-deductive methodology has been used to conduct this study. Using partial least square regression, this study tested and proved two developed hypotheses based on a sample of 101 software and IT-enabled services firms in Bangladesh. The sample was selected using non-probability sampling techniques, and data were collected using a structured questionnaire developed from the extant literature.FindingsAll of the hypotheses proposed in this study have been accepted. The results show that the effectual approach of decision-making negates the risk perception of the entrepreneur and speeds up the internationalization process of that firm.Research limitations/implicationsThe implications of this study are inherent in the entrepreneurial cognition and decision-making approach (effectuation). This study provides an insight into risk perception and the rapidity of internationalization, which can spur future development in this field.Originality/valueRapidity in internationalization of small- and medium-sized enterprises depends on a significant number of factors, one of which is the decision-making approach. The decision-making approach followed by the firms can have an effect on the speed of internationalization. This paper connects the dots between the rapidity of entry to foreign markets with a cognitive variable, risk perception. This paper developed two hypotheses to measure the relationship between risk perception of the entrepreneurs and the rapidity in international market entry with moderation of the decision-making approach.
Blockchain and records management: disruptive force or new approach?
Authors: Bhatia Sharmila , Douglas E. Kyle , Most Markus 
Published: March 2020

Purpose
Archival repositories rely on the authenticity of records. The potential manipulation of records and information present a unique challenge to archival repositories and their mission to collect, maintain and provide access to the authentic records. The purpose of this paper is to outline the technical aspects of blockchain and describe potential records management and archival implications of the technology. The implications to consider include data management, records existing on a blockchain and records disposition.

Design/methodology/approach
The approach included reviews of technical literature and attendance at blockchain conferences, workshops and seminars. The literature review focused on general studies, technical publications, use cases and nascent applications for managing records created and stored on a blockchain. The approach is intended to answer the questions: what basic information do records managers need to understand blockchain? How will blockchain technology impact records management? Does blockchain shift toward decentralized records management?

Findings
Implemented properly, blockchain technology can immutably record transactions and provide independent verification and authentication of digital records. Given the ease with which electronic records can sometimes be manipulated, the promise of certainty and third-party verification has drawn sizeable interest and investment. This paper shows records exist on blockchains and must be managed appropriately. The distributed structure inherent in blockchains is a shift from centralized records management and will challenge the approach and assumptions of the profession. Records managers must determine recordkeeping requirements before developing a business application using blockchain and the fixed nature of blockchains means that these considerations must be included at the outset.

Originality/value
This proposed paper began as a blockchain white paper produced by the US National Archives for the federal records management community. It has been re-focused as a general review paper for the Records Management Journal to explain blockchain and show how it may be used to address broader records and information management concerns such as authenticity, veracity, and trustworthiness.

Published: March 2020

PurposeThis paper aims to present a systematic approach in the literature survey related to metal additive manufacturing (AM) processes and its multi-physics continuum modelling approach for its better understanding.Design/methodology/approachA systematic review of the literature available in the area of continuum modelling practices adopted for the powder bed fusion (PBF) AM processes for the deposition of powder layer over the substrate along with quantification of residual stress and distortion. Discrete element method (DEM) and finite element method (FEM) approaches have been reviewed for the deposition of powder layer and thermo-mechanical modelling, respectively. Further, thermo-mechanical modelling adopted for the PBF AM process have been discussed in detail with its constituents. Finally, on the basis of prediction through thermo-mechanical models and experimental validation, distortion mitigation/minimisation techniques applied in PBF AM processes have been reviewed to provide a future direction in the field.FindingsThe findings of this paper are the future directions for the implementation and modification of the continuum modelling approaches applied to PBF AM processes. On the basis of the extensive review in the domain, gaps are recommended for future work for the betterment of modelling approach.Research limitations/implicationsThis paper is limited to review only the modelling approach adopted by the PBF AM processes, i.e. modelling techniques (DEM approach) used for the deposition of powder layer and macro-models at process scale for the prediction of residual stress and distortion in the component. Modelling of microstructure and grain growth has not been included in this paper.Originality/valueThis paper presents an extensive review of the FEM approach adopted for the prediction of residual stress and distortion in the PBF AM processes which sets the platform for the development of distortion mitigation techniques. An extensive review of distortion mitigation techniques has been presented in the last section of the paper, which has not been reviewed yet.

Published: March 2020

AbstractTreatment for patients with unresectable melanoma has been dramatically changed by the use of immunocheckpoint inhibitors (ICI). In this study, we reviewed patients with unresectable stage III/IV melanoma, who were treated with nivolumab between July 2014 and March 2017 at the Department of Dermatologic Oncology, National Cancer Center Hospital, Tokyo, and retrospectively recorded cutaneous adverse events (cAE), development of vitiligo, clinical characteristics and clinical responses. We identified 128 patients, 61 (47.7%) of whom showed cAE, including 30 (23.4%) with development or exacerbation of vitiligo. The prognosis of patients with melanoma treated with ICI correlated with cAE, including development of vitiligo. Patients with cAE showed better objective responses (41.0% vs 6.0%, P < 0.001), progression‐free survival (PFS) (377 vs 61 days, P < 0.001) and overall survival (OS) (763 vs 209 days, P < 0.001) than did patients without cAE. Patients who developed vitiligo showed better objective responses (53.3% vs 29.0% vs 6.0%, P < 0.001), PFS (median, not reached vs 317 vs 65 days, P < 0.001) and OS (not reached vs 689 vs 209 days, P < 0.001) than did patients with other cAE and patients without cAE. Landmark analysis showed development of vitiligo starting 20 weeks after starting nivolumab correlated with better OS. In multivariate analysis, OS correlated with performance status, number of metastasized organs, cAE other than vitiligo and development of vitiligo. Despite the fact that the correlation between other cAE and OS was less than that of vitiligo, cAE may be a simple marker of favorable prognosis.
Altered renal medullary blood flow: A key factor or a parallel event in control of sodium excretion and blood pressure?
Authors: Sadowski Janusz , Bądzyńska Bożena 
Published: March 2020

AbstractIn the context of the ongoing debate on the mechanism of blood pressure (BP) regulation and pathophysiology of arterial hypertension (“renocentric” vs “neural” concepts), attention is focused on the putative regulatory role of changes in renal medullary blood flow (MBF). Experimental evidence is analysed with regard to the question whether an elevation of BP and renal perfusion pressure (RPP) is likely to increase MBF due to its impaired autoregulation. It is concluded that such increases have been clearly documented only in rats with extracellular fluid volume expansion. A possible translation of this finding to BP regulation in health and hypertension in humans may only be a matter of speculation. Within the “renocentric” theory, the key event leading to restoration of initial BP level is pressure natriuresis. Its relation to elevation of renal interstitial hydrostatic pressure and to the phenomenon of “wash‐out” of renal medullary solutes by increasing MBF is discussed. We also assessed the validity of data supporting the putative mechanism of short‐term restoration of elevated BP owing to the release of a vasodilator lipid (medullipin) by the medulla. The structure of the proposed medullary lipid is still undefined, and there is no sound evidence on its mediatory role in lowering elevated BP level. In conclusion, MBF change can hardly be regarded as a crucial event in the regulation of BP: it can be involved in the control of sodium excretion and BP only in some circumstances, although its contributory role cannot be excluded.
EoTHINophils: Eosinophils as key players in adipose tissue homeostasis
Authors: Vohralik Emily J. , Psaila Annalise M. , Knights Alexander J. , Quinlan Kate G. R. 
Published: March 2020

AbstractEosinophils are granular cells of the innate immune system that are found in almost all vertebrates and some invertebrates. Knowledge of their wide‐ranging roles in health and disease has largely been attained through studies in mice and humans. Although eosinophils are typically associated with helminth infections and allergic diseases such as asthma, there is building evidence that beneficial homeostatic eosinophils residing in specific niches are important for tissue development, remodelling and metabolic control. In recent years, the importance of immune cells in the regulation of adipose tissue homeostasis has been a focal point of research efforts. There is an abundance of anti‐inflammatory innate immune cells in lean white adipose tissue, including macrophages, eosinophils and group 2 innate lymphoid cells, which promote energy homeostasis and stimulate the development of thermogenic beige adipocytes. This review will evaluate evidence for the role of adipose‐resident eosinophils in local tissue homeostasis, beiging and systemic metabolism, highlighting where more research is needed to establish the specific effector functions that adipose eosinophils perform in response to different internal and external cues.
Associations between sensitivity to antibiotics, disinfectants and heavy metals in natural, clinical and laboratory isolates of Escherichia coli

Published: March 2020

SummaryBacteria in nature often encounter non‐antibiotic antibacterials (NAAs), such as disinfectants and heavy metals, and they can evolve resistance via mechanisms that are also involved in antibiotic resistance. Understanding whether susceptibility to different types of antibacterials is non‐randomly associated across natural and clinical bacteria is therefore important for predicting the spread of resistance, yet there is no consensus about the extent of such associations or underlying mechanisms. We tested for associations between susceptibility phenotypes of 93 natural and clinical Escherichia coli isolates to various NAAs and antibiotics. Across all compound combinations, we detected a small number of non‐random associations, including a trio of positive associations among chloramphenicol, triclosan and benzalkonium chloride. We investigated genetic mechanisms that can explain such associations using genomic information, genetic knockouts and experimental evolution. This revealed some mutations that are selected for by experimental exposure to one compound and confer cross‐resistance to other compounds. Surprisingly, these interactions were asymmetric: selection for chloramphenicol resistance conferred cross‐resistance to triclosan and benzalkonium chloride, but selection for triclosan resistance did not confer cross‐resistance to other compounds. These results identify genetic changes involved in variable cross‐resistance across antibiotics and NAAs, potentially contributing to associations in natural and clinical bacteria.

Ministerial Turnover and Why Reshuffles Matter for Parliament
Authors: Thompson Louise 
Published: March 2020

AbstractReshuffles are a relatively common occurrence in British politics. We expect to see them whenever a new Prime Minister enters Downing Street, after elections and following ministerial resignations. Recent research from the Institute for Government warns that the regular churn of ministers has negative consequences for policy making and for parliamentary accountability. This article summarises their latest research and what this tells us about the potential implications of Boris Johnson’s February 2020 reshuffle on government and Parliament.
Experiences and implications of smartphone apps for depression and anxiety
Authors: Crosby Liam , Bonnington Oliver 
Published: March 2020

AbstractApps on smartphones are increasingly used for self‐care for depression and anxiety, yet how and why they are accessed, and their social effects, remain under‐investigated. Sociologists have begun to theorise how these technologies affect and relate; crucial questions for a contemporary sociology of health. This study seeks to contribute to our conceptualisation of how digital health technologies are implicated in health by investigating the motivations, experiences and relations of people using mobile apps for depression or anxiety. We interviewed 14 individuals living in England with a diagnosis of depression or an anxiety disorder, who used smartphone apps as part of self‐care. Analysis followed a thematic approach. Three themes were identified. Apps exist within relational contexts – alongside smartphones, beliefs about mental health and other support – which shape app use and lead to an imprecise, casual approach. People engage with apps in a straightforward and uncomplicated manner, leading to immediate symptomatic alleviation, but to limited longer term benefit. The contradiction between the apps’ promise as tools of individual empowerment, with their ability to promote responsibilising frameworks that restrain users’ reflexivity, is central to their implications. Apps can thus contribute to isolation from interpersonal support and promote reductionist biomedical conceptualisations of mental ill health.
Conditions of experienced stigma in people living with HIV in Iran: a qualitative comparative analysis
Authors: Akbari Hossein , Safari Saeid 
Published: March 2020

AbstractStigma against people living with HIV (PLWH) seriously affects their quality of life. Moreover it can lead them to hide their HIV status from others, which in turn endangers public health. Many studies dealing with HIV‐related stigma focus on the consequences of this phenomenon and pay less attention to the social conditions which affect different types of HIV‐related stigma (anticipated, internalized and enacted stigma [ES]). Therefore, in this study, we tried to achieve more understanding about effective causal conditions of various types of experienced stigma. First of all, data were collected from 19 PLWH, using semi‐structured interviews from those who had visited the Counseling Center for Behavioral Diseases in Mashhad. Secondly, the data were analyzed by applying a mixture of two methods: thematic analysis and qualitative comparative analysis (Boolean Algebra). The analysis of the data reveals that a combination of informing family members about HIV status, lack of family support, and medical support lead to anticipated stigma; a combination of religious beliefs and poor self‐esteem results in internalized stigma and a combination of lack of family support, mistreatment by community, poor self‐esteem, poverty and no religious beliefs lead to ES.
The biohabitus of scarcity: bio‐social dispositions and the “obesity epidemic” in Mexico
Authors: Martínez Alejandro , Anduro Iván , Bojorquez Ietza 
Published: March 2020

AbstractIn this article, we explore the potential of Warin et al.'s concept of biohabitus (a set of embodied biological and social dispositions) as a conceptual tool for the understanding of mechanisms behind the “obesity epidemic.” Elaborating on this concept, we argue that a context of food scarcity gives rise to a biohabitus geared to energy‐saving, expressed in both biological (the thrifty genotype/phenotype hypotheses) and symbolic dispositions (Bourdieu's “taste of necessity”), and the interaction between this type of biohabitus and changes in the food‐related environment results in increased body mass index. We exemplify the use of this framework by applying it to the case of Mexico, a middle‐income Latin American country with one of the highest prevalences of obesity worldwide. The example shows how the concept of biohabitus can help researchers move beyond disciplinary explanations, towards a more complex understanding of the conjunction of social and biological processes that result in differential patterns of health and disease.
