How to harnesses digital technologies for pursuing business model innovation: a longitudinal study in creative industries
Authors: Priyono Anjar , Darmawan Baziedy , Witjaksono Gunawan 
Published: August 2021

PurposeThis study aims to investigate how manufacturing firms in the creative industries harness digital technologies to undertake business model innovation.Design/methodology/approachThis study used in-depth case studies to examine the complex interplay between digital technologies and business model innovation. A longitudinal approach was selected to capture major events both within the firm and in the business environment. Building on the firm’s archival data, interviews and secondary data that was available to the public, the authors carefully analyzed impactful digital technology events and the firm’s responses to the technological changes that occurred over the period of 2004–2020.FindingsThe findings suggest that digital technologies alone are not sufficient for business model innovation to be successful; support from sociotechnical factors is also required. Additionally, firms should reinvent a new business model when the existing ones seem to start to diminish.Research limitations/implicationsIn this study one firm was examined as the subject, using a qualitative method. This method allowed us to observe complex interplays among the resources required in business models. Future research can combine qualitative methods with computational case studies, which utilize a large volume of quantitative big data.Practical implicationsThe results of this study suggest that managers must ensure that the resources within and outside organizations are loosely connected and are readily available to be mobilized for supporting business model innovation. To enable this, managers must prepare the required resources in advance.Originality/valueThe current findings add to a growing body of literature on business model innovation and digital technologies. In particular, this study describes the process of how a traditional firm from a least developed country pursues business model innovation with the support of digital technologies.
Internet of Things in contemporary academic libraries: application and challenges
Authors: Igbinovia Magnus Osahon , Okuonghae Omorodion 
Published: August 2021

Purpose
Academic libraries are constantly adopting emerging technologies to deliver innovative services. A recent trend in technological innovation is the Internet of Things (IoT). Consequently, this study theoretically x-rayed the various ways in which IoT could be applied to academic libraries and the expected challenges associated with the adoption of the technology.

Design/methodology/approach
This study used the review method to examine the application of IoT in contemporary academic libraries.

Findings
This study explained the concept of IoT and went further to x-ray the application of IoTs in academic libraries as it affects critical aspects of the library operations, thereby justifying how IoT influences innovative service delivery. The peculiar challenges faced by academic libraries in developing countries were also discussed.

Originality/value
This study’s value is reflected in the need to examine IoT adoption in academic libraries from the perspective of both developing and developed countries, where for certain reasons, the diffusion of new technology is relatively slow.
Recovery colleges in mental health-care services: an Australian feasibility and acceptability study
Authors: Hopkins Liza , Foster Andrew , Belmore Sue , Anderson Shelley , Wiseman Di 
Published: August 2021

Purpose
This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of establishing a recovery college in an Australian acute and community adult mental health service. Very little has been published on efforts to incorporate recovery colleges in inpatient settings other than forensic. This study offers an evaluation of feasibility and acceptability of this service model within a health-care setting.

Design/methodology/approach
Participant feedback and qualitative implementation data, from an acute mental health-care inpatient ward and adult community care were used. Participants were mental health service consumers and staff. The intervention involved a co-produced, co-designed, co-delivered and co-received educational opportunity for mental health consumers, carers, staff and the community.

Findings
Feedback from course participants indicates that learning objectives were met by the majority of participants, while stakeholders identified that establishing a recovery college within both the inpatient and community health-care service was feasible at a service level and broadly acceptable to consumers.

Originality/value
Establishing an adult recovery college in inpatient and community care is likely to be effective re-orientating mental health-care services as well as improving outcomes for consumers.
CSR motives on situational scepticism towards luxury brands
Authors: Teah Kevin , Sung Billy , Phau Ian 
Published: August 2021

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to examine how perceived corporate social responsibility (CSR) motives may influence situational scepticism towards luxury brands and its effects on brand resonance, resilience to negative information and consumer advocacy of luxury brands. The moderating role of perceived fit towards luxury brand CSR initiatives is also investigated.Design/methodology/approachAn experimental approach on a 2 × 2 matrix was used. Data are collected through a consumer panel.FindingsValues-driven motives were found to lead to lower consumer situational scepticism and egoistic-driven motives would lead to higher levels of consumer situational scepticism. While higher consumer situational scepticism leads to lower brand resonance, there is no significant relationship between scepticism and resilience to negative information and consumer advocacy. The findings also suggest that perceived fit moderates the relationship between consumer situational scepticism to resilience to negative information and consumer situational scepticism to consumer advocacy.Originality/valueThe key originality of the study is that it provides empirical insights into situational scepticism of CSR initiatives and its influence in consumer and management outcomes in luxury brands.
Rethinking the trajectory of economic development: a study of firm entry mode under reverse directionality
Authors: Balachander Jayaram 
Published: August 2021

PurposeMost of the research studies on entry mode have been done through the lens of manufacturing firms from mature economic countries entering the Global South countries, and most of the related frameworks and theories have been developed to explain this perspective. This paper presents an understanding of entry mode strategies of services firms from the Global South countries entering into countries with mature economies by considering six software services firms in India entering the US market. The study develops a framework that incorporates multiple theories – both from an emerging economy perspective as well as a services perspective.Design/methodology/approachThis study is exploratory in nature and focuses on the how and why aspects of strategic decisions. Qualitative research has traditionally been chosen when the main research objective is to improve understanding of a phenomenon. A multiple case study approach was used in this research. One of the key aspects of this study is the impact of different theories (institutional, network and other theories) on enterprises of different sizes. Therefore six cases – two each on small, medium and large enterprises – were selected.FindingsResults identify addressable market size, cultural aspects, firm size, resource and service characteristics as dominating factors that influenced choice of entry modes. From a theoretical perspective, the author finds that theories such as transaction cost theory, eclectic paradigm and other popular theories associated with entry mode do not successfully explain the entry mode strategies for firms from the Global South. Strategic theory, such as resource-based view, motivation of a firm, have some application but do not explain, in isolation, all aspects of the entry mode choices.Research limitations/implicationsThe study is an exploratory study and needs more data to validate the themes expressed in its conclusions. The study also focused on one industry and one country. Different industries within the same country may have different characteristics and may not follow the observations found in this study. Similarly, firms from other countries with similar economic characteristics may exhibit very different behavior. As a result, the themes that were expressed for software companies in India may not be generalizable across other industries and countries.Originality/valueThis study is significant for both academics and managers. For academics, the study addresses a significant gap in the literature. For managers, this study provides a framework for managers to evaluate and select the entry mode strategy that would be most effective in a successful expansion into foreign countries.

CSR portfolio characteristics and performance outcomes: examining the impacts of CSR portfolio diversity and dynamism
Authors: Turner Kyle , Turner Craig A. , Heise William H. 
Published: August 2021

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to introduce and test a portfolio view of a firm’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities. Drawing from stakeholder theory and the dynamic capabilities literature, the authors introduce CSR portfolio diversity and dynamism as key portfolio characteristics that have differential impacts across short- and long-term performance contexts.

Design/methodology/approach
The study draws from the Kinder, Lydenberg and Domini database to examine CSR portfolio diversity and dynamism across seven dimensions of CSR activities. The authors test the direct and indirect relationships between CSR portfolio characteristics and both short- and long-term performance outcomes to assess the opportunities and challenges associated with managing a diverse and dynamic CSR portfolio.

Findings
The findings suggest that a diverse portfolio of CSR activities positively impacts long-term performance; however, CSR portfolio diversity yields negative performance outcomes in the short-term. The authors also find that CSR portfolio dynamism moderates the relationship between CSR level and firm performance, such that a dynamic portfolio of CSR positively moderates the relationship between a firm’s CSR level and long-term performance; however, it negatively moderates the relationship between CSR level and short-term performance.

Originality/value
This study integrates insights from the literature that examine the independent effects of individual CSR activities and the broader perspective that assesses the aggregated summation of CSR activities in relation to firm performance. By taking a portfolio perspective, the present study provides a unique integration of these two research streams to examine the performance implications of engaging in a diverse and dynamic range of CSR activities.
Thanatopsis and mortality mediation within “lightest” dark tourism
Authors: Light Duncan , Ivanova Preslava 
Published: August 2021

Purpose
This paper aims to investigate the visitor experience at a “lightest” dark tourism attraction, focusing on issues of thanatopsis and mortality mediation.

Design/methodology/approach
Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 24 visitors to a “Dungeon”-style attraction in the UK (a site of “lightest” dark tourism). The interviews were analysed using thematic analysis; four themes were identified.

Findings
Reflection on, and contemplation of, issues of life and death was a common (but not universal) component of the visitor experience. Four forms of such reflection were apparent: considering absent/present death; thanatopsis (reflection on the self’s inevitable mortality); reflecting on the nature of death and dying in the past; and enjoyment of the opportunity to engage with death without fear in the safe setting of a visitor attraction. Some visitors also reflected on issues of individual and collective morality, in both past and present.

Research limitations/implications
“Lightest” dark tourism is not necessarily about shallow experiences. Instead, many visitors are active agents, engaged in acts of making meaning about issues of death and life. This calls for a more sophisticated conceptualisation of such visitors.

Originality/value
The mortality mediation model is widely accepted as a way of explaining the experience of visiting places of death but has rarely been subject to empirical scrutiny. This is one of few studies to explore in detail issues of mortality mediation and thanatopsis in the context of “lightest” dark tourism.
Physiology and genetics of ethanologenesis in the acetogenic bacterium Acetobacterium woodii
Authors: Moon Jimyung , Müller Volker 
Published: August 2021

SummaryThe acetogenic model bacterium Acetobacterium woodii is well‐known to produce acetate by homoacetogenesis from sugars, but under certain conditions minor amounts of ethanol are produced in addition. Here, we have aimed to identify physiological conditions that increase electron and carbon flow towards ethanol production. Ethanol was only produced from fructose but not from H2 + CO2, formate, pyruvate, lactate or alanine. In the absence of Na+, the Wood–Ljungdahl pathway (WLP) of acetate formation is not functional. Therefore, the ethanol yield increased to 0.42 mol/mol (ethanol/fructose) with an ethanol/acetate ratio of 0.28 mol/mol. The presence of bicarbonate/CO2 stimulated electron and carbon flow through the WLP and led to less ethanol produced. Of the 11 potential alcohol dehydrogenase genes, the most upregulated during ethanologenesis was adh4. A deletion of adh4 led to an increase in ethanol production by 100% to a yield of 0.79 mol/mol (ethanol/fructose); this correlated with an increase in transcript abundance of adh6. In sum, our studies revealed low Na+ and bicarbonate/CO2 as factors that trigger ethanol formation and that a deletion of adh4 drastically increased ethanol formation in A. woodii.
Making the Private Public: Witnessing Female Infanticide in Nineteenth‐Century Kathiawar
Authors: Murthy Pashmina 
Published: August 2021

AbstractNineteenth‐century British colonial discourses on female infanticide in India were marked not only by horror but also by frustration at being unable to detect its commission or identify its perpetrators. But in 1835, after years of thwarted efforts, three cases of daughter‐murder were successfully investigated in quick succession in the tributary of Kathiawar. This article uses manuscript transcripts of one of these cases to show the investigation's reliance on midwives and female servants as witnesses. Focusing on their testimony, the article shows how these women became critical participants in the colonial epistemology of female infanticide, informing and framing British understanding of this crime while also challenging it.

AbstractObjectiveThe objective was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of single‐dose ketamine infusion in adults with sickle cell disease (SCD) who presented with acute sickle vasoocclusive crisis (VOC).MethodsThis study was a parallel‐group, prospective, randomized, double‐blind, pragmatic trial. Participants were randomized to receive a single dose of either ketamine or morphine, infused over 30 min. Primary outcome was mean difference in the numerical pain rating scale (NPRS) score over 2 h. NPRS was recorded every 30 min for a maximum of 180 min and secondary outcomes were cumulative dose of opioids, emergency department (ED) length of stay, hospital admission, change in vital signs, and drug‐related side effects. Authors performed the analysis using intention‐to‐treat principle.ResultA total of 278 adults with SCD and who presented with acute sickle VOC participated in this trial. A total of 138 were allocated to the ketamine group. Mean (±standard deviation [SD]) NPRS scores over 2 h were 5.7 (±2.13) and 5.6 (±1.90) in the ketamine and morphine groups. The ketamine group received significantly lower cumulative doses of morphine during their ED stay (mean ± SD = 4.5 ± 4.6 mg) than of the morphine group (mean ± SD = 8.5 ± 7.55 mg). Both groups had similar rates of hospital admission: 6.3% in the ketamine group had drug‐related side effects compared to 2.2% in the morphine group.ConclusionEarly use of ketamine in adults with VOC resulted in a meaningful reduction in pain scores over a 2‐h period and reduced the cumulative morphine dose in the ED with no significant drug‐related side effects in the ketamine‐treated group.
Efficacy and safety of intrathecal morphine for analgesia after lower joint arthroplasty: a systematic review and meta‐analysis with meta‐regression and trial sequential analysis

Published: August 2021

SummaryWidespread adoption of intrathecal morphine into clinical practice is hampered by concerns about its potential side‐effects. We undertook a systematic review, meta‐analysis and trial sequential analysis with the primary objective of determining the efficacy and safety of intrathecal morphine. Our secondary objective was to determine the dose associated with greatest efficacy and safety. We also assessed the impact of intrathecal morphine on respiratory depression. We systematically searched the literature for trials comparing intrathecal morphine with a control group in patients undergoing hip or knee arthroplasty under spinal anaesthesia. Our primary efficacy outcome was rest pain score (0–10) at 8–12 hours; our primary safety outcome was the rate of postoperative nausea and vomiting within 24 hours. Twenty‐nine trials including 1814 patients were identified. Rest pain score at 8–12 hours was significantly reduced in the intrathecal morphine group, with a mean difference (95%CI) of −1.7 (−2.0 to −1.3), p < 0.0001 (19 trials; 1420 patients; high‐quality evidence), without sub‐group differences between doses (p = 0.35). Intrathecal morphine increased postoperative nausea and vomiting, with a risk ratio (95%CI) of 1.4 (1.3–1.6), p < 0.0001 (24 trials; 1603 patients; high‐quality evidence). However, a sub‐group analysis by dose revealed that rates of postoperative nausea and vomiting within 24 hours were similar between groups at a dose of 100 µg, while the risk significantly increased with larger doses (p value for sub‐group difference = 0.02). Patients receiving intrathecal morphine were no more likely to have respiratory depression, the risk ratio (95%CI) being 0.9 (0.5–1.7), p = 0.78 (16 trials; 1173 patients; high‐quality evidence). In conclusion, there is good evidence that intrathecal morphine provides effective analgesia after lower limb arthroplasty, without an increased risk of respiratory depression, but at the expense of an increased rate of postoperative nausea and vomiting. A dose of 100 µg is a ‘ceiling’ dose for analgesia and a threshold dose for increased rate of postoperative nausea and vomiting.

ObjectivesTo assess and compare peri‐operative outcomes of patients undergoing robot‐assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for imperative vs elective indications.Patient and MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed a multinational database of 3802 adults who underwent RAPN for elective and imperative indications. Laparoscopic or open partial nephrectomy (PN) were excluded. Baseline data for age, gender, body mass index, American Society of Anaesthesiologists score and PADUA score were examined. Patients undergoing RAPN for an imperative indication were matched to those having surgery for an elective indication using propensity scores in a 1:3 ratio. Primary outcomes included organ ischaemic time, operating time, estimated blood loss (EBL), rate of blood transfusions, Clavien–Dindo complications, conversion to radical nephrectomy (RN) and positive surgical margin (PSM) status.ResultsAfter propensity‐score matching for baseline variables, a total of 304 patients (76 imperative vs 228 elective indications) were included in the final analysis. No significant differences were found between groups for ischaemia time (19.9 vs 19.8 min; P = 0.94), operating time (186 vs 180 min; P = 0.55), EBL (217 vs 190 mL; P = 0.43), rate of blood transfusions (2.7% vs 3.7%; P = 0.51), or Clavien–Dindo complications (P = 0.31). A 38.6% (SD 47.9) decrease in Day‐1 postoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate was observed in the imperative indication group and an 11.3% (SD 45.1) decrease was observed in the elective indication group (P < 0.005). There were no recorded cases of permanent or temporary dialysis. There were no conversions to RN in the imperative group, and seven conversions (5.6%) in the elective group (P = 0.69). PSMs were seen in 1.4% (1/76) of the imperative group and in 3.3% of the elective group (7/228; P = 0.69).ConclusionWe conclude that RAPN is feasible and safe for imperative indications and demonstrates similar outcomes to those achieved for elective indications.
