The impact of the COVID-19 market shock on residential buyer preferences
Authors: Cain Christopher , Huerta Daniel , Maynard Norman , Waller Bennie 
Published: October 2024

Purpose
This paper aims to investigate the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic market shock on house pricing, time-on-market (TOM) and probability-of-sale functions using local multiple listing service data from Richmond, Virginia, USA.

Design/methodology/approach
The empirical analyses use a two-stage residual inclusion model to simultaneously address endogeneity and nonlinearity in modeling sales price and TOM, and a Heckman two-stage procedure to account for sample selection bias in estimating the probability-of-sale.

Findings
The pandemic shock not only directly impacted average home prices, TOM and probability-of-sale, but it also caused the coefficients of some of the factors that influence these metrics to change while others were stable to the exogenous shock of the pandemic. The authors find that coefficients in the hedonic pricing, TOM and probability-of-sale models did not shift instantaneously; instead, the impact evolved over several months at the beginning of the pandemic until stabilization.

Originality/value
The results should be of interest to buyers and sellers of residential properties, agents specializing in residential properties and researchers looking to better capture the impact of exogenous events on housing prices and buyer preferences.

Published: October 2024

PurposeBlockchain technology is one of the major contributors to supply chain sustainability because of its inherent features. However, its adoption rate is relatively low due to reasons such as the diverse barriers impeding blockchain adoption. The purpose of this study is to identify blockchain adoption barriers in sustainable supply chain and uncovers their interrelationships.Design/methodology/approachA three-phase framework that combines machine learning (ML) classifiers, BORUTA feature selection algorithm, and Grey-DEMATEL method. From the literature review, 26 potential barriers were identified and evaluated through the performance of ML models with accuracy and f-score.FindingsThe findings reveal that feature selection algorithm detected 15 prominent barriers, and random forest (RF) classifier performed with the highest accuracy and f-score. Moreover, the performance of the RF increased by 2.38% accuracy and 2.19% f-score after removing irrelevant barriers, confirming the validity of feature selection algorithm. An RF classifier ranked the prominent barriers and according to ranking, financial constraints, immaturity, security, knowledge and expertise, and cultural differences resided at the top of the list. Furthermore, a Grey-DEMATEL method is employed to expose interrelationships between prominent barriers and to provide an overview of the cause-and-effect group.Practical implicationsThe outcome of this study can help industry practitioners develop new strategies and plans for blockchain adoption in sustainable supply chains.Originality/valueThe research on the adoption of blockchain technology in sustainable supply chains is still evolving. This study contributes to the ongoing debate by exploring how practitioners and decision-makers adopt blockchain technology, developing strategies and plans in the process.

Published: October 2024

PurposeThe esports industry has experienced a dynamic growth. In this context, a significant evolution in the logic of corporate social responsibility (CSR) can be observed, particularly in the digital sphere. By extending Carroll’s three-dimensional model to include corporate digital responsibility (CDR), this paper addresses a key research question: How does CSR evolve and develop in the dynamic digital industry of esports?Design/methodology/approachThis study employed a qualitative multiple case study research design. It drew on secondary data from 50 professional esports organisations and key players in CSR development in the global esports industry, such as game publishers, pro-teams, pro-athletes, event organisers, and governing bodies. A content analysis of 50 official websites and 72 public annual, CSR, and environmental reports for the financial years ending in 2021 and 2022 was conducted.FindingsOur empirical findings not only map the territory of esports CSR and CDR but also provide practical insights. These insights are later synthesized to develop an esports CSR/CDR framework that extends Carroll’s three-dimensional model. CSR and CDR domains of esports are theoretically grounded (business performance, responsiveness, social issues, and digital responsibilities), while practical implications for managers and academics are forwarded.Originality/valueThis paper stands out as a pioneering empirical study, filling a significant research gap in the fields of CSR and CDR in esports. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first to illuminate these concepts within the unique ecosystem of esports, thereby contributing to the evolving understanding of CSR in the digital context.
Using artificial intelligence to address mental health inequalities: co-creating machine learning algorithms with key stakeholders and citizen engagement
Authors: Morgan Phil , Cogan Nicola Ann 
Published: October 2024

Purpose
Artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to reshape mental health practices, policies and research in the coming decade. Simultaneously, mental health inequalities persist globally, imposing considerable costs on individuals, communities and economies. This study aims to investigate the impact of AI technologies on future citizenship for individuals with mental health challenges (MHCs).

Design/methodology/approach
This research used a community-based participatory approach, engaging peer researchers to explore the perspectives of adults with MHCs from a peer-led mental health organisation. This study evaluated potential threats and opportunities presented by AI technologies for future citizenship through a co-created film, depicting a news broadcast set in 2042. Data were gathered via semi-structured interviews and focus groups and were analysed using a reflexive thematic approach.

Findings
The analysis identified four key themes: Who holds the power? The divide, What it means to be human, and Having a voice. The findings indicate that adults with living experiences of MHCs are eager to influence the development of AI technologies that affect their lives. Participants emphasised the importance of activism and co-production while expressing concerns about further marginalisation.

Originality/value
This study provides new insights into the intersection of AI, technology and citizenship, highlighting the critical need for inclusive practices in technological advancement. By incorporating the perspectives of individuals with living experiences, this study advocates for participatory approaches in shaping AI technologies in mental health.

PurposeThis study investigates the readiness for and understanding of Industry 4.0 in a pharmaceutical manufacturer.Design/methodology/approachUtilising qualitative interviews within a single-site case study in a pharmaceutical organisation, the understanding of Industry 4.0 and the challenges, benefits and critical success factors for Industry 4.0 readiness therein and applications of Industry 4.0 are assessed.FindingsThe research findings found that Industry 4.0 implementation has implications for regulatory compliance and enhancing operational excellence on the site. The Pharma site is embracing Industry 4.0 technologies, particularly for paperless systems and data collation and analytics, but the site is somewhat of a late adaptor of Industry 4.0 implementation and is on a path towards increased digitalisation.Research limitations/implicationsA limitation of the study is that it is a single-site case study, but the results can be generalisable in demonstrating how Industry 4.0 is being deployed and its challenges and benefits.Originality/valueThis study is unique and novel because to the authors knowledge, it is one of the first studies on Industry 4.0 readiness and status in an Irish Pharma site within a single pharmaceutical organisation. This study can be leveraged and benchmarked by all pharmaceutical organisations as it demonstrates the complexity of Industry 4.0 deployment from a highly regulated and complex pharmaceutical manufacturing and processing viewpoint.
Plant responses to urban gradients: Extinction, plasticity, adaptation
Authors: Sotillo Alejandro , Hardion Laurent , Chanez Etienne , Fujiki Kenji , Muratet Audrey 
Published: October 2024

Abstract

Biodiversity‐oriented urban management and planning require information on the drivers of wildlife composition and ecosystem function within cities. Urban landscapes impose environmental gradients along which species may be filtered away, or respond by showing adaptive variation in functional trait values. Such trait variation may in turn be due to a species' phenotypic plasticity, or a consequence of microevolution leading to local adaptation.

This study investigates three possible plant responses to urban environmental gradients, with different evolutionary consequences: extinction, plasticity and adaptation. We assessed whether individual functional traits (LMA—leaf mass per area, plant height and flower length), population performance traits (seed mass and germination rate), as well as species frequency in the plant community, responded to gradients in mowing frequency, soil fertility and structure, temperature and surrounding mean building height, among four herbaceous plant species present in the metropolitan area of Strasbourg. Using a common garden experiment, we tested whether the observed trait variation was hereditary, and may thus constitute evidence for local adaptation.

Our results detected the three types of expected responses. Plantago lanceolata is plastic to urban gradients, and Trifolium pratense showed both plastic and hereditary responses. Dactylis glomerata and Medicago lupulina showed all three responses: they both declined under increasing mowing frequency, were plastic to surrounding mean building height, and showed hereditary responses to different urban gradients.

Urban management and planning therefore impact on the evolutionary capabilities of plants in cities. In the case of management this is highlighted by the detected trends in species' traits and frequency in response to mowing. The consequences of urban planning are evidenced by mean building height eliciting most often plastic and adaptive responses.

Synthesis. Herbaceous plants often change their morphology in response to urban conditions: grass cutting, altered soils, warmer temperatures and being surrounded by tightly packed buildings. These changes are sometimes hereditary, which suggests that city management and planning affect the ability of plants to survive and evolve in urban environments.
Spatial and climatic drivers of β‐diversity in assemblages of angiosperm genera across the world
Authors: Qian Hong , Qian Shenhua , Kessler Michael 
Published: October 2024

Abstract

β‐diversity quantifies the change in taxonomic and phylogenetic composition between areas. It can be partitioned into two additive components (turnover and nestedness). Geographic distance, which reflects dispersal limitation, and climatic distance, which reflects environmental filtering, are major drivers of β‐diversity, but few studies have assessed their relative importance to β‐diversity at a global scale.

Here, we investigate the relationship of β‐diversity of angiosperm genera in regional floras worldwide to climatic conditions within regions and to geographic and climatic distances between regions.

We found that (1) current climate has a stronger effect on phylogenetic turnover than does Quaternary climate change; (2) of the current climate variables examined, mean annual temperature is the strongest driver of phylogenetic turnover, followed by precipitation seasonality; (3) regions with high precipitation seasonality have high phylogenetic β‐diversity and phylogenetic turnover; and (4) at a global scale, the variation in phylogenetic turnover explained jointly by geographic and climatic distances is, on average, much larger than that explained uniquely by either distance, but that geographic distance explains more variation in phylogenetic turnover than climatic distance.

Synthesis. These results reveal the synergistic role of geographic isolation and climatic filtering in determining the composition of floras worldwide, with less influence of Quaternary climate changes.
Political contexts and new electorates: The case of women in Norway
Authors: Kinsey Barbara Sgouraki 
Published: October 2024

AbstractExtension of voting rights is basic to political representation, but getting the newly eligible to the polls is also essential to representative politics. What are the factors that contribute to the mobilization of new voters? Study of the entry of women in electoral politics remains limited due to lack of appropriate data. However, in the case of Norway, as in several other countries, separate records were kept on women's eligibility and voting turnout. This paper examines how social factors may condition the influence of a major determinant of women's turnout, political party competition, in parliamentary elections immediately following their enfranchisement in the case of Norway. The study is conducted at the commune level and uses spatial tools of analysis. It takes place across (a) regions with different socio‐cultural and political attributes, (b) different franchise extensions to women by socioeconomic status, and (c) genders. Findings suggest that social context, that is, women's location in different socio‐cultural/political settings and socio‐economic status may condition the effects of political party competition on women's turnout.
Reimagining crisis management with an organizational learning framework
Authors: Schneider Erika J. 
Published: October 2024

AbstractTechnological advancements have altered the landscape of crisis management, making many crises potentially preventable and controllable. Moreover, these technological advancements have provided opportunities for organizations to implement an informed learning approach in crisis responses. The interconnectedness and complementary aspects of three theories within crisis management, including the situational crisis communication theory's base crisis response strategies, image repair theory's corrective action, and discourse of renewal theory's organizational learning, were assessed and integrated into a proposed framework for understanding a comprehensive approach to crisis management. In this research, technology is regarded as both an asset for facilitating organizational learning (e.g., informed decision‐making through data analytics), and a potential source of challenges in crisis communication (e.g., Zoombombing and negative social amplification). The proposed framework aims to bridge proactive risk and reactive crisis management efforts through organizational learning. Findings from this 4 × 2 between‐subjects experimental design study explore the effectiveness of organizational learning to address crisis responsibility in an evolving technological landscape.

Published: October 2024

AbstractA 73‐year‐old woman was admitted to our hospital with severe respiratory distress due to postpneumonectomy neoplastic central airway obstruction. An emergency recanalization with rigid bronchoscopy (RB) was planned. Controlled and jet ventilation are routinely used to assure ventilation during RB, but the risk of inadequate oxygenation and removal of carbon dioxide was prohibitively high in this case due to the presence of a single lung. The use of venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation was decided by multidisciplinary team to support ventilation during RB. Complete airway recanalization was successfully achieved without any complications. The patient was discharged 2 days later. Pathology revealed metastatic adenocarcinoma, and the patient was reviewed for oncologic treatment.
Landscape effects on seasonal abundance of Drosophila suzukii and its parasitoids in California cane berry fields
Authors: Hogg Brian N. , Daane Kent M. 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
Spotted wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii, has become a major pest of soft‐skinned fruit crops in the Americas, Europe and North Africa. In many regions, D. suzukii management is complicated by the fly's ability to persist on non‐crop hosts and then invade or reinvade crop fields from surrounding natural habitats. In California, non‐crop habitats adjacent to commercial cane berry fields often contain wild blackberry (Rubus spp.), a potential overwintering host for D. suzukii.
We sampled D. suzukii and its naturally occurring parasitoids (the pupal parasitoids Trichopria drosophilae and Pachycrepoideus vindemmiae) in commercial berry fields and adjacent non‐crop habitat throughout the year, to determine whether non‐crop habitat is a seasonal or year‐round refuge for D. suzukii, and whether numbers of D. suzukii and its parasitoids in berry fields are dependent on the composition of the surrounding landscape.
Numbers of D. suzukii adults were consistently higher in non‐crop habitat, and proportions of female D. suzukii were highest in berry fields, indicating that females dispersed more widely than males. The effect of habitat diversity on numbers of D. suzukii adults was positive in fall and negative in early spring, possibly reflecting differing habitat requirements of D. suzukii over time.
Parasitoid numbers were also higher in non‐crop habitat and were positively affected by proportions of non‐crop habitat and cropland in summer.
Results indicate that non‐crop habitats were a year‐round refuge for both D. suzukii adults and its parasitoids, and that landscape effects on D. suzukii abundance in crop fields can change over the seasons.
Prospective evaluation of the store‐and‐forward teledermatology service (eConsult) delivery at Townsville Hospital: A pilot study
Authors: Lee Celine Jessica , Evans Rebecca , Boyce Aaron 
Published: October 2024

AbstractBackgroundThe shortage of dermatologists in rural and regional Australia is acutely felt in north Queensland where the population experiences a leading burden of skin cancer and tropical dermatoses. Store‐and‐forward teledermatology (SAFT) is recognised as a potential solution to improve accessibility of dermatology specialist care in rural communities. eConsult (a SAFT service) was piloted for the broader Townsville community in 2022. Evaluation was necessary to ensure wider implementation would meet stakeholder needs and improve patient care.ObjectiveTo evaluate clinician perspectives and use of eConsult within the Townsville Hospital and Health service catchment over the pilot period (up to 9 months).MethodologyPre‐engagement interviews with clinicians assessed their management of dermatoses and service expectations prior to eConsult usage. eConsult referrals identified case characteristics, outcomes and uptake of the service amongst clinicians. Post‐engagement interviews assessed clinician perceptions and their suggestions for the service at the conclusion of the pilot period.ResultsIn total, 24 and 17 clinicians participated in the pre‐ and post‐engagement interviews respectively, and 38 referrals were submitted by clinicians. The service assisted diagnosis and management of non‐urgent skin conditions for any age group. Clinicians generally had positive perceptions and appreciated timely access to local specialist advice. This study suggests a SAFT service can improve access to dermatology specialist opinion and increase management of dermatoses in primary care.ConclusionsEstablishing sustainable teledermatology services with strong engagement from users is important for accessible care. Future research may investigate similar SAFT models involving more specialists and assess long‐term cost‐effectiveness.

Published: October 2024

AbstractIntroductionThe da Vinci SP (SP) has only 1 robotic arm, containing 4 channels. It provides a wide space for assistant surgeons using laparoscopic forceps. We performed a new type of minimally invasive surgery using laparoscopy and a robot (MILAR) utilizing the SP in distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Materials and Surgical TechniqueAn incision at the umbilicus was made for the SP, and 2 ports were inserted from the right abdomen for laparoscopic surgery. In the above view, where surgeons look down at the surgical field, the scope was inserted from the channel at 12 o'clock, and the round tooth retractor was inserted from 6 o'clock. In the below view, where surgeons look up at the surgical field, the scope and retractor were inserted from opposite directions. The robotic operator uses 3 forceps and a scope. The laparoscopic operator uses 2 forceps. On the greater curvature side, the left or right epiploic artery pedicles was retracted by the robot operator under the below view. The suprapancreatic area was dissected with the pedicle of the left gastric artery retracted by the laparoscopic operator under the above view.DiscussionBy setting the scope and the retractor in a diagonal direction of 12–6 o'clock, robotic surgeons have a wide space bilaterally for using forceps for nodal dissection under the co‐axial setting. Laparoscopic surgeons can use this space easily. Gastrectomy by MILAR using SP could provide quality surgery within a short operative time.
