The paradoxical impact of CEOs’ humility and narcissism on absorptive capacity: evidence from small firms
Authors: Majhi Siddharth Gaurav , Snehvrat Saurav , Chaudhary Sanjay 
Published: November 2024

Purpose
Because small firms are dependent on external knowledge to overcome various constraints, absorptive capacity (ACAP) is an important capability from a knowledge management perspective. Furthermore, extant research has noted the seemingly contradictory yet potentially complementary interaction of Chief Executive Officer (CEO) traits – humility and narcissism on knowledge management. This study aims to explore the impact of CEO humility and narcissism on ACAP and short-term firm performance.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper uses a quantitative approach using multisource data from small Indian firms comprising survey responses from 225 CEOs and 216 general managers of small automotive firms. The data were analyzed using partial least squares – structural equation modeling.

Findings
This paper sheds new light on the process through which small firms build ACAP and the role of CEO leadership traits in this regard. This study finds that in a highly turbulent environment, CEO’s humility and narcissism affect the development of a small firm’s ACAP. This study also discusses important implications for managerial practice and policy making.

Originality/value
To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study to empirically examine the impact of the paradoxical leadership traits of narcissism and humility on the short-term performance of small firms, from a knowledge-based perspective through the lens of absorptive capacity.

Authors: Huma Sehrish , Rehman Abdur , Ahmed Waqar 
Published: November 2024

PurposeThis study aims to demonstrate the influence of Industry 4.0 (I4.0) adoption on improving logistics capabilities to achieve remanufacturing operations and business logistics performance.Design/methodology/approachThis research uses a deductive survey-based research approach. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from managerial-level employees associated with logistics functions from 121 manufacturing firms. The partial least square method was used to conduct structural equation modeling to test the hypothesis empirically.FindingsThe analysis revealed that using I4.0 improves the ability to achieve higher levels of logistics capabilities (i.e. instrumented and intelligent logistics). Moreover, I4.0 integration with instrumented and intelligent logistics capabilities positively impacts business logistics optimization. On the other hand, intelligent logistics directly and positively impacts remanufacturing operational performance, whereas instrumented logistics does not reflect any significant influence on remanufacturing performance.Originality/valueThis study is one of the limited studies on the focus area and is an effort to fulfill an identified gap in applying innovative logistics capabilities using I4.0 technologies.
Durability enhancement in self-compacting sand concrete using mineral additives
Authors: Belkacem Djoual , Ratiba Mitiche-Kettab , Rebih Zaitri 
Published: November 2024

Purpose
The study aimed to explore the effects of mineral admixtures – especially limestone filler (LF), brick powder (BP) and ceramic powder (CP) – on the performance of self-compacting sand concrete (SCSC). It studies their effect on mechanical properties and mass loss when exposed to acidic solutions (H2SO4 5% and HCl 5%) over periods of 28, 90 and 180 days. The study seeks to develop SCSC technology by taking advantage of locally available sand resources.

Design/methodology/approach
Using an experimental design, the study explores different formulation parameters, including the use of silty sand (AS) and dune sand (DS) in fixed proportions, where AS constitutes 70% and DS 30% of the total sand content. The superplasticizer ratio (SP) and water-to-binder ratio (W/B) are constant with varying amounts of mineral additives. The study immerses SCSC samples in acidic solutions (5% H2SO4 and 5% HCl) for 28, 90, and 180 days to evaluate mass loss and mechanical properties. This endeavor to advance such concrete technology is motivated by the desire to incorporate sand concrete into the realm of self-compacting concrete technology while also harnessing the advantages of locally available sand resources, particularly dune sand, which is abundant in the southern regions of Algeria.

Findings
SCSC results with mineral additives showed enhanced resistance in both tensile and compression tests, indicating improved durability compared to the reference sample without additives. However, excessive proportions of BP (>60%) or CP led to exceptions in this trend An exception to this trend was observed when BP was added in proportions exceeding 60% or when CP, indicating potential limitations in some additive formulations. Overall, the research provides valuable insights into improving the performance and durability of SCSC through the strategic incorporation of mineral admixtures, contributing to advances in self-compacting concrete technology.

Originality/value
1 – Valorization of local materials and recycling of waste: DS, LF, BP and CP, which are available in great quantities in the south of Algeria; 2 – Combination, at the same time, of alluvial sand and dune sand as aggregate and LF, BP and CP as filler. 3 – Application of the design of experiments method methodology for the optimization of these elements of the new sand concrete studied. The new building material elaborated present indeed a technical, economic and environmental interest.
Searching for “The New Oil”: Preemptive Hope and Post‐Petroleum Futures in Norway's Oil Capital
Authors: Müller Anders Riel 
Published: November 2024

AbstractThis article explores the role of imaginaries of preemptive hope in second‐tier cities and regions within the global petroleumscape that face an uncertain future in a post‐petroleum world order. It highlights the importance of such imaginaries in discussions of stability, destabilisation, and ruptures in the petroleum landscape. The article examines the assumptions and presuppositions that undergird the post‐petroleum imaginaries in Stavanger, Norway's oil capital and self‐proclaimed energy capital of Europe, and how these can be conceptualised as imaginaries of preemptive hope. These imaginaries are framed as a promise of a new oil waiting to be realised—thus promising a status quo post‐petroleum future that only requires technical adjustments. These new oil imaginaries become forms of repair and maintenance of the petroleumscape because they primarily promise to maintain the wealth, status, and privileges attained from their position in the petroleumscape—a promise that they are unable to realise. The broader implication of the study is that we need to pay more attention to the imaginable post‐petroleum futures governing second‐tier cities’ and regions’ economic strategies in maintaining the status quo, not just the actions of global oil majors and leading petro‐states.

ABSTRACTBackgroundThe accuracy of current criteria for ruling out large oesophageal varices (LEV) and other endoscopic lesions of portal hypertension (PH) may be compromised by obesity and MASLD/MASH.AimsIn the US multicentre SHUNT‐V study, we evaluated the disease severity index (DSI) for detecting LEV and other lesions of PH at endoscopy.MethodsSubjects were adults with compensated cirrhosis scheduled for endoscopy to screen for varices. DSI was calculated from clearances of labelled cholates after oral and intravenous administration. DSI ≤ 18.3 was evaluated as a cut‐off for ruling out LEV with acceptance criteria of negative likelihood ratio < 0.52 and sensitivity > 85%.ResultsSHUNT‐V enrolled 306 subjects; 275 had both DSI and endoscopy, and 238 had Child–Pugh A cirrhosis (52.1% MASLD/MASH, 25.2% chronic hepatitis C and 15.6% alcoholic liver disease; 87% were overweight, 64% were obese and 54% had diabetes). AUROCs for DSI ranged from 0.81 to 0.82 for LEV and 0.79 to 0.80 for all significant PH lesions. DSI 18.3 had sensitivity 96.3%–100% for LEV and 97.3%–100% for all significant PH lesions. If DSI ≤ 18.3 were used as the sole determinant to defer EGD, 27%–35% of EGDs could have been avoided with 0%–3.7% of LEV and 0%–2.7% of all significant PH lesions missed.ConclusionsHepQuant DSI predicts the likelihood of LEV and significant PH lesions across a spectrum of patient characteristics and disease aetiologies. DSI, based on liver function and portal‐systemic shunting, can aid in the decision to defer endoscopy for varices in patients with Child–Pugh A cirrhosis.Trial Registration: The SHUNT‐V study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03583996)

ABSTRACTBackground and AimsAlcohol use is prevalent among hepatology clinic patients with chronic liver disease (CLD). We explored factors associated with the importance and confidence dimensions of motivation to reduce drinking.MethodsParticipants (N = 121) with unhealthy alcohol use (i.e., over NIH guidelines) receiving care in hepatology clinics from a safety‐net hospital (SN, N = 54) and two Veterans Affairs Healthcare Systems (VA, N = 67) were enrolled in an alcohol intervention trial from March 2022 through October 2023. Baseline assessments included Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD‐7), Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ‐8), Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT), COVID‐19 stress; and measures of importance and confidence to decrease alcohol use (readiness rulers, scales of 1–10). Liver disease aetiology and severity were extracted from electronic health records. We performed multivariable linear regression models with forward selection to assess pre‐specified variables' associations with importance and confidence.ResultsThe sample was 84% male, 40% Latino, 31% White, 18% Black and 11% other races; median age was 61 years. Median (Q1–Q3) AUDIT score was 16 (12–24), importance was 9 (6–10) and confidence was 8 (5–9). On multivariable analysis, VA site (vs. SN) participants had a 0.97‐point lower importance score (p = 0.02); higher symptoms of depression (PHQ‐8 score ≥ 10 vs. < 10) and AUDIT scores (for each point increase) were associated with higher importance score (estimates 1.2 and 0.08, p < 0.05, respectively). Liver disease aetiology and severity were not significantly associated with outcomes.ConclusionsDepression, alcohol problem severity and treatment site may influence motivation to reduce alcohol use and could inform future hepatology‐based interventions.
Pregnant Women's Care Needs During Early Labor–A Scoping Review
Authors: Mueller Antonia N. , Grylka‐Baeschlin Susanne 
Published: November 2024

ABSTRACTIntroductionPregnant women face the challenge of managing early labor on their own until they feel the need to seek professional support. However, professional support during such a vulnerable stage of labor may sometimes be insufficient. This study aims to understand pregnant women's care needs during early labor in order to improve the quality of care provided at the onset of labor.MethodsA scoping review was conducted following a systematic search strategy in May 2021 and in August 2022 concentrating on pregnant women in early labor with spontaneous onset of labor. A sensitive search strategy was used with five different databases. The articles were screened by two independent researchers. Data were extracted and mapped to answer the research question.Results52 articles were included. Major reasons for seeking professional help are to receive reassurance and get advice and information on how to cope with early labor. Furthermore, many women express the need for professional guidance. Several articles demonstrated women's preferences for hospital admission or a continuous care model. While some women want empowerment and empathy from a midwife, others require clear instructions on helpful measures or even clinical interventions within the process.ConclusionsManaging early labor without professional support creates a major challenge for pregnant women and nurtures insecurities and anxiety. Protecting women from unnecessary interventions is a well‐intentioned plan, yet a lack of support in early labor may sometimes jeopardize a positive birth experience. New ways need to be elaborated to support women‐centred and individualized approaches to providing early labor care.

Published: November 2024

ABSTRACTBackgroundIt is unclear if a history of cesarean birth (CB) is a risk factor for postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) even after a successful planned vaginal birth.MethodsA historical retrospective cohort study from all deliveries (42,456) between 2004 and 2019. Inclusion criteria were as follows: (i) women with only one previous CB; (ii) liveborn cephalic singleton pregnancy and term spontaneous labor; (iii) successful planned vaginal birth; (iv) no operative vaginal delivery; and (v) no history of PPH. Women who experienced intrapartum uterine rupture leading to CB were excluded. Those who experienced uterine rupture diagnosed after vaginal birth were not excluded. The labor after cesarean (LAC) group (109 women with previous CB and current vaginal birth) were compared with 2 control groups to consider the parity: control group 1 (1633 nulliparous women) and control group 2 (4197 parous women). The main outcome was the rate of PPH (> 500 mL). Multivariate analysis was performed to investigate whether previous CB was an independent risk factor for PPH. Bivariate analysis and causal framework was used to determine the relation between variables of clinical interest.ResultsThe PPH rates in the LAC group, control group 1, and control group 2 were 12.8%, 5.3%, and 6.4%, respectively. Irrespective of the group control (1 or 2), a history of CB was associated with an increased risk of PPH: adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 2.38 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.28–4.44] (adjusted with maternal age, overweight, hyperthermia, and use of oxytocin) and aOR 2.16 [95% CI 1.20–3.87] (adjusted with maternal age and overweight) for Groups 1 (parous) and 2 (nulliparous), respectively.ConclusionA history of cesarean birth could be a risk factor for PPH even after successful planned vaginal delivery.

Published: November 2024

AbstractMultiple myeloma (MM) is closely related to abnormal RNA splicing in its pathogenesis. CDC2‐like kinase‐2 (CLK2) regulates RNA splicing by phosphorylating serine/arginine‐rich splicing factors (SRSFs), but the role of CLK2 in MM remains undefined. This study was to explore the role and mechanism of CLK2 in MM. Analyzing GEO datasets of MM patients found that high CLK2 expression predicted poor prognosis. Overexpression of CLK2 promoted the cell proliferation and cell cycle progression of MM cell ARP1 and H929. Knockdown or inhibition of CLK2 suppressed cell proliferation and induced cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in ARP1 and H929 cells in vitro. An MM xenograft tumor experiment showed that CLK2 overexpression promoted tumor growth, while CLK2 inhibition suppressed tumor growth in vivo. Mechanistic studies revealed that interfering CLK2 inhibited SRSF phosphorylation, and induced exon 9 skipping of RAE1, resulting in nonsense‐mediated mRNA decay (NMD) of RAE1. In addition, RAE1 knockdown inhibited cell proliferation in ARP1 and H929 cells. Moreover, RAE1 overexpression promoted cell proliferation and cell cycle progression of ARP1 and H929 cells, and partially reversed the antitumor effect of CLK2 knockdown. Targeting CLK2 shows antitumor effects on MM partially through inhibiting SRSF phosphorylation and inducing NMD of RAE1. Therefore, targeting the CLK2/SRSFs/RAE1 axis could be a potential therapeutic strategy for MM.

Published: November 2024

ABSTRACTObjectivesWe aimed to assess the outcomes of fat graft myringoplasty augmented with hyaluronic acid in closing large‐sized eardrum perforations compared to the traditional underlay cartilage‐perichondrium composite myringoplasty (CPCM).Study DesignIt was a prospective randomised comparative study.SettingsIt was held in tertiary referral institutions between May 2020 and April 2022.ParticipantsWe included 100 patients with a large‐sized eardrum perforation (50%–75% of the eardrum surface area). Using the endoscopic transcanal approach, 50 patients were managed by fat graft myringoplasty augmented with hyaluronic acid, while CPCM managed the other 50 patients.Main Outcome MeasuresWe evaluated the closure rates 1, 6 months and 1 year after surgery. Also, we assessed the audiological performance of the patients with a successful closure before and 1 year after the operation.ResultsFat graft myringoplasty operation was statistically shorter than the CPCM. The closure rate 1 year after surgery was 92% in the first group and 86% in the second group, without a statistically significant difference between both groups. Successful air‐bone gap closure to less than 10 dB occurred in 93.5% of group A and 81.4% of group B without a statistically significant difference. The mean postoperative air‐bone gap was 5.3 ± 3.95 dB in the first group and 7.95 ± 5.17 dB in the second group, with a statistically significant difference.ConclusionsFat graft myringoplasty augmented with hyaluronic acid was a reliable, safe, simple, and effective manoeuvre to close large‐sized eardrum perforations compared to the conventional CPCM.

AbstractIntroductionChildhood traumatic experiences (CTE) have been identified as a robust risk factor for a range of substance use behaviours. However, little is known about their association with adolescent vaping. We explored prospective associations between CTEs and vaping among a sample of Australian adolescents.MethodsThe sample comprised 2234 adolescents (baseline Mage = 12.7 years, SD = 0.5; 49.9% female) enrolled in the Health4Life cluster randomised controlled trial. Using mixed effects logistic regression analyses, data from the baseline and 36‐month assessment waves were used to examine whether CTEs (by ~ age 12) were associated with current or lifetime vaping and future intentions to vape (~ age 15).ResultsAdjusting for socio‐demographic variables, CTE exposure at baseline was associated with higher odds of ever having vaped (odds ratio 1.64, 95% confidence interval 1.34, 2.02), and of being a current regular vape user (odds ratio 1.63, 95% confidence interval 1.11, 2.39). Experiencing CTEs was also associated with higher odds of intending to vape in the future (odds ratio 1.44, 95% confidence interval 1.11, 1.86).Discussion and ConclusionsThis study is the first to identify CTEs as a risk factor for vaping, and intentions to vape in the future, among Australian adolescents. These findings align with global research and highlight another common risk factor across various forms of substance use. CTE exposed adolescents represent a priority group who may require earlier and more targeted vaping intervention.
