Authors: Sumarta Nurmadi Harsa , Rahardjo Mugi , Satriya Kingkin Kurnia Trio , Supriyono Edy , Amidjaya Prihatnolo Gandhi 
Published: October 2021

Purpose
This paper aims to find empirical evidence of bank ownership structures on bank reputation through the mediating role of sustainability reporting (SR) in Indonesian banking sector.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper uses purposive sampling to obtain 279 observations from 43 listed banks in Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2012–2018. This study uses structure equation modelling analysis in the AMOS software and intervening test from the Sobel test to investigate the direct and indirect effect in this research model.

Findings
The empirical results evidence: foreign, government and public ownership exhibit significant positive effect on SR but not with family ownership; SR positively affects bank reputation; SR appears as a mediator in which foreign, government and public ownership have a positive effect on the bank reputation through the indirect effect of SR while family ownership exhibits insignificant result.

Practical implications
The practical contribution of this study is that SR is proven to increase bank reputation through the legitimation from the public, so the management must properly pay attention by publishing this report.

Originality/value
This study provides several novelties to the literature: SR is used as a mediator in the relationships between bank ownership and reputation in which there is very limited studies investigating these aspects, especially in Indonesia. In addition, most SR studies in Indonesia still focus on SR determinants rather than its impact; customer deposits are used as a measurement basis of the bank reputation as it reflects better the trust and perception of the market so that it is relevant with the reputation level.

Published: October 2021

PurposeConsidering the importance of financial literacy (FL) in people’s lives the goal of this study aims to assess the level of FL of young Portuguese students, addressing the impact of the level of education on the FL of college students.Design/methodology/approachData from a non-probabilistic sample of 185 students attending higher education bachelor’s and master’s degrees courses in Economics, Management and Marketing was collected between February 25 and March 23, 2019, using an online questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistics were computed using IBM SPSS 25 to analyze the data.FindingsThe findings show that the level of the degree (bachelor’s or master’s degree) and the academic background of the individual’s parents have a positive impact on FL. Moreover, among individuals with a high level of FL, gender and professional situation are additional predictors. Furthermore, the authors observed that the level of FL of Portuguese students attending higher education is overall low, especially in terms of their knowledge of the main financial concepts, which may call for public policies to be implemented so that to reduce this vulnerability.Research limitations/implicationsAmong limitations is the limited sample collected, restricted to a particular target, Portuguese students attending business-related courses such as Economics, Management and Marketing, either studying for a master’s or bachelor’s degree. This issue restricts the generalization of the overall findings to other students studying different fields. Future studies can collect a random and representative sample.Practical implicationsThis study test can be replicated to generate a diagnosis in any region or country, identifying how financially literate the region under analysis is. Also, this can be done to verify the evolution of FL after educational interventions.Social implicationsFL is an important competence. In fact, youngsters in the whole world have been suffering from a lack of financial knowledge (FK), and some characteristics of them can push them into indebtedness, and, even bankruptcy, such as a higher level of status consumption, the tendency to have an attitude of self-appraisal, to be self-centered, to seek instant gratification. This study helps to lead to a better understanding of this phenomenon.Originality/valueAddressing college students attending different levels is an add-on to the existing body of literature. This paper contributes to study differences in FL between college and master students, enlightening and evaluating the role of scholarship maturity on financial education. Furthermore, some of the findings challenge the extant knowledge regarding the influence of professional experience, gender and age on the level of FK that students have. Finally, the current approach is innovative as it addresses FK, FL and numeracy in the same study.
Informing the public matters: A field experiment during an ongoing health crisis in Belgium

Published: October 2021

AbstractDuring an ongoing outbreak of Legionnaires' disease in Belgium, residents of the affected area took part in an online field experiment. The impact of four distinct crisis messages used by the Belgian authorities was tested on uncertainty, fear and trust. After receiving any of these messages, participants felt less insecure, less anxious and had more trust in the authorities as compared to before they saw the information. The extent of this positive impact of crisis information depended, however, on the message that was offered. Two messages offering comprehensive instructing and adjusting information appeared more effective than two messages offering only limited (predominantly adjusting) information. The use of visuals, by means of an infographic, did not seem to hinder or increase the effectiveness of the message in this particular study. Organizations and authorities responsible for managing a health crisis are recommended to actively communicate a complete overview of information about what is going on as well as specific information regarding what the public can (or cannot) do to address the matter. While visual aids may not be necessary, they can be helpful to effectively communicate a comprehensive overview of information through social media.
Dietary advanced glycation end‐products, 2‐monochloropropane‐1,3‐diol esters and 3‐monochloropropane‐1,2‐diol esters and glycidyl esters in infant formulas: Occurrence, formulation and processing effects, mitigation strategies

Published: October 2021

AbstractInfant formula contains thermal processing contaminants, such as dietary advanced glycation end‐products (dAGEs), glycidyl esters (GEs), 2‐monochloropropane‐1,3‐diol esters and 3‐monochloropropane‐1,2‐diol esters (MCPDEs). This systematic review aimed to gain insights into the occurrence of these contaminants in different types of infant formula, to understand potential effects of the formulation and processing of infant formulas on these contaminants, as well as into possible mitigation strategies. The occurrence of dAGEs in infant formula depends on the recipes and processing conditions. Hydrolyzed protein formulations promote dAGEs formation in infant formula since peptides are more prone to glycation than intact proteins, which is reflected in high dAGEs concentration in hypoallergenic infant formula. Different carbohydrates in recipes result into different glycation extents of infant formula: maltodextrin containing formulas contained less dAGEs than those with lactose. Concerning mitigation strategies, applying ultra‐high‐temperature (UHT) treatment during milk processing leads to less dAGEs formation than using in‐bottle sterilization. Although data are limited, evidence showed that encapsulation of raw ingredients or the use of antioxidants or enzymes in recipes is promising. The occurrence of MCPDEs and GEs in infant formula fully depends on the vegetable oils used in the recipe. High levels of these contaminants can be found when relatively high amounts of palm oils or fats are used. The mitigation of MCPDEs and GEs should therefore be performed on fats and oils before their application to infant formula recipes. Data and knowledge gaps identified in this review can be useful to guide future studies.
Are guns the new dog whistle? Gun control, racial resentment, and vote choice*

Published: October 2021

AbstractTwo principal movers of American politics appear increasingly to be connected: racism and guns. The racial content underlying gun rights rhetoric, however, is rarely made explicit during political campaigns. As such, it is possible that espousing pro‐gun messages may be an effective way to surreptitiously court prejudiced voters without transgressing popular egalitarian norms. In other words, gun rights rhetoric may function as a racial dog whistle. In the present study, we test this theory using data from a survey experiment conducted with a national sample of registered voters. The findings from our experiment show that election candidates’ National Rifle Association (NRA)‐funding status and position on gun control impact voters’ evaluations, and racial resentment moderates these effects. Racially resentful voters are more likely than low‐resentment voters to say they would vote for a candidate when the candidate is funded by the NRA and does not support gun control. This is true among voters who own guns and among those who do not, and it is true regardless of the candidate's political party. The findings also show that there is a backlash effect among low‐resentment voters—such individuals are aversive to NRA‐funded candidates but strongly supportive of pro‐gun control candidates.
How is human resource management research (not) helping practice? In defence of practical implications
Authors: Kougiannou Nadia K. , Ridgway Maranda 
Published: October 2021

AbstractThis article provokes that human resource management (HRM) research is a long way from helping practice. Following a review of HRM empirical articles published in 2018, we show the limited focus academic journals place on practical implications. We provoke that HRM journals are failing to ‘do the right thing’ by not requiring authors to pay enough attention to communicating the practical implications of their research. In half of the articles that we reviewed (n = 324) less than 2% of the text focuses on practical implications. We also found that where practical implications were offered, they were often obscure, implicit, and used unintelligible terms. We argue for extensive practical implications to be included in publications that provide an impetus to research relevant topics and close the knowledge‐translation gap.

AbstractAimPulmonary hypertension (PH) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are interdependent for their development and exacerbation. We evaluated the effect of PH on CKD progression in patients with connective tissue disease (CTD)‐associated PH.MethodsWe reviewed consecutive patients with CTD who were diagnosed with PH with right heart catheter (RHC) examinations in our hospital. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the use of vasodilators: monotherapy or combination therapy. We further divided the patients with combination therapy into early and non‐early combination groups. Early combination was defined as the addition of the second vasodilator within 1 month after starting the first drug. The clinical course of hemodynamics and CKD progression were compared.ResultsThirty‐eight patients were included in the analysis: 10 were treated with monotherapy and 28 with combination therapy (14 with early and 14 with non‐early). At baseline, patients who received combination therapy had a significantly higher mean pulmonary arterial pressure with RHC and a higher right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP) with echocardiography (P = .04) and showed a greater improvement in RVSP after treatment than those who underwent monotherapy. The incidence of CKD progression was significantly lower in patients who received combination therapy than in those who received monotherapy (P = .05). Among patients who received combination therapy, the early combination group had a lower incidence of CKD progression than the non‐early combination group (P = .03).ConclusionsEarly combination therapy is associated with a lower incidence of CKD progression in patients with CTD‐associated PH.

AbstractBackgroundTracheal tumors are rare. The aim of this case series was to investigate airway selection during radical surgery for patients with tracheal tumors.MethodsHere, we performed a retrospective case review of patients with tracheal tumors who underwent tracheal surgery in our center. A total of 37 cases, including 26 patients with primary tracheal tumors and 11 cases with advanced thyroid cancer, were enrolled into the study. Baseline characteristics and differential prognosis of included patients were estimated. We summarize the strategies for intraoperative airway selection and analyze the risk factors associated with delayed extubation.ResultsThere is a trend for primary tracheal tumors to appear toward the upper (9 of 26) and middle third (9 of 26) of the trachea, followed by the lower third airway (8 of 26). Advanced thyroid cancers occur most frequently in the upper trachea (7 of 11) and then the middle trachea (4 of 11). All primary and secondary patients underwent R0 resection. Minor histological subtypes were found to correlate with a poor prognosis. Extracorporeal support and tracheotomy intubation were applied in high‐risk cases, and a total of 32 patients achieved intrathoracic intubation during the surgical process. Intensive care unit (ICU) delay (>1 day) was observed among 25 patients, which were not enriched in cases who underwent cross‐field endotracheal intubation. Additionally, temporal suboptimal oxygenation (SpO2 < 95%) was an independent risk factor of ICU delay.ConclusionsAirway selection plays an important role in successful tracheal surgery, and an appropriate ventilation routine depends on the patient and a surgical process which is safe and effective.
Organized Labor Effects on SG&A Cost Behavior*
Authors: Chang Hsihui , Dai Xin , Lohwasser Eric , Qiu Yue 
Published: October 2021

ABSTRACTThis study examines how organized labor affects selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) cost behavior. Human capital is emerging as firms' most valuable asset, and we further the understanding of the interaction between employees and SG&A cost behavior. We predict and find that labor cost stickiness is higher for firms facing stronger unions, but the stickiness of SG&A costs is lower. This is consistent with our arguments that in firms with stronger unions, managers' discretionary decision to retain SG&A resources is negatively affected by higher labor adjustment costs that result in the retention of slack labor resources during periods of decreased demand. To assess the robustness of our main findings, we conduct an event analysis of labor union elections and find that SG&A cost stickiness decreases after firms experience new union certification. Cross‐sectional tests also show that the effect of labor union strength on SG&A cost stickiness is more pronounced for firms that are in better financial condition, have higher analyst coverage, and have higher net operating assets. We find a similar effect of union strength on discretionary spending when examining R&D costs. Overall, we contribute to the literature by showing that organized labor has a significant effect on cost behavior, which has implications for financial statement users and financial forecasting.

AbstractBackgroundThe prediction of in‐hospital mortality for ICU patients with COVID‐19 is fundamental to treatment and resource allocation. The main purpose was to develop an easily implemented score for such prediction.MethodsThis was an observational, multicenter, development, and validation study on a national critical care dataset of COVID‐19 patients. A systematic literature review was performed to determine variables possibly important for COVID‐19 mortality prediction. Using a logistic multivariable model with a LASSO penalty, we developed the Rapid Evaluation of Coronavirus Illness Severity (RECOILS) score and compared its performance against published scores.ResultsOur development (validation) cohort consisted of 1480 (937) adult patients from 14 (11) Dutch ICUs admitted between March 2020 and April 2021. Median age was 65 (65) years, 31% (26%) died in hospital, 74% (72%) were males, average length of ICU stay was 7.83 (10.25) days and average length of hospital stay was 15.90 (19.92) days. Age, platelets, PaO2/FiO2 ratio, pH, blood urea nitrogen, temperature, PaCO2, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score measured within +/−24 h of ICU admission were used to develop the score. The AUROC of RECOILS score was 0.75 (CI 0.71–0.78) which was higher than that of any previously reported predictive scores (0.68 [CI 0.64–0.71], 0.61 [CI 0.58–0.66], 0.67 [CI 0.63–0.70], 0.70 [CI 0.67–0.74] for ISARIC 4C Mortality Score, SOFA, SAPS‐III, and age, respectively).ConclusionsUsing a large dataset from multiple Dutch ICUs, we developed a predictive score for mortality of COVID‐19 patients admitted to ICU, which outperformed other predictive scores reported so far.

AbstractIron has been implicated in the pathogenesis of age‐related retinal diseases, including age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). Previous work showed that intravitreal (IVT) injection of iron induces acute photoreceptor death, lipid peroxidation, and autofluorescence (AF). Herein, we extend this work, finding surprising chronic features of the model: geographic atrophy and sympathetic ophthalmia. We provide new mechanistic insights derived from focal AF in the photoreceptors, quantification of bisretinoids, and localization of carboxyethyl pyrrole, an oxidized adduct of docosahexaenoic acid associated with AMD. In mice given IVT ferric ammonium citrate (FAC), RPE died in patches that slowly expanded at their borders, like human geographic atrophy. There was green AF in the photoreceptor ellipsoid, a mitochondria‐rich region, 4 h after injection, followed later by gold AF in rod outer segments, RPE and subretinal myeloid cells. The green AF signature is consistent with flavin adenine dinucleotide, while measured increases in the bisretinoid all‐trans‐retinal dimer are consistent with the gold AF. FAC induced formation carboxyethyl pyrrole accumulation first in photoreceptors, then in RPE and myeloid cells. Quantitative PCR on neural retina and RPE indicated antioxidant upregulation and inflammation. Unexpectedly, reminiscent of sympathetic ophthalmia, autofluorescent myeloid cells containing abundant iron infiltrated the saline‐injected fellow eyes only if the contralateral eye had received IVT FAC. These findings provide mechanistic insights into the potential toxicity caused by AMD‐associated retinal iron accumulation. The mouse model will be useful for testing antioxidants, iron chelators, ferroptosis inhibitors, anti‐inflammatory medications, and choroidal neovascularization inhibitors.

AbstractBackgroundTesticular tissue freezing is proposed for fertility preservation to (pre)pubertal boys with cancer before highly gonadotoxic treatment. Studies accurately comparing human (pre)pubertal testicular tissue quality before freezing and after thawing are exceptional. No study has reported this approach in a systematic manner and routine care.ObjectivesTo assess the impact of a control slow freezing protocol on testicular tissue architecture and integrity of (pre)pubertal boys after thawing.Materials and methods(Pre)pubertal boys (n = 87) with cancer from 8 Reproductive Biology Laboratories of the French CECOS network benefited from testicular tissue freezing before hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Seminiferous tubule cryodamage was determined histologically by scoring morphological alterations and by quantifying intratubular spermatogonia and the expression of DNA replication and repair marker in frozen‐thawed testicular fragments.ResultsA significant increase in nuclear and epithelial score alterations was observed after thawing (p < 0.0001). The global lesional score remained lower than 1.5 and comparable to fresh testicular tissue. The number of intratubular spermatogonia and the expression of DNA replication and repair marker in spermatogonia and Sertoli cells did not vary significantly after thawing. These data showed the good preservation of the seminiferous tubule integrity and architecture after thawing, as previously reported in our studies performed in prepubertal mice and rats.DiscussionThe current study reports, for the first time, the development of a semi‐quantitative analysis of cryodamage in human (pre)pubertal testicular tissue, using a rapid and useful tool that can be proposed in routine care to develop an internal and external quality control for testicular tissue freezing. This tool can also be used when changing one or several parameters of the freezing‐thawing procedure.ConclusionControl slow freezing protocol without seeding maintains the seminiferous tubule architecture and integrity, the concentration of spermatogonia and the expression of DNA replication and repair marker in spermatogonia and Sertoli cells after thawing.
