Determinants of bank deposit in a small economy’s banking sector: a study of Fiji
Authors: Chand Shasnil Avinesh , Kumar Ronald Ravinesh , Stauvermann Peter Josef 
Published: October 2024

Purpose
Deposits, a liability component of banks’ balance sheet, are an important source of funding for commercial and retail banks. In this study, the authors consider deposits as dependent variable and examine factors (bank-specific, macrofinance and structural) that could plausibly explain deposits. Subsequently, the findings are expected to support analysts, bank managers and regulators, especially in small economies such as Fiji, for asset–liability management.

Design/methodology/approach
This study uses a balanced panel of six commercial banks and two credit institutions over the period 2000–2022. To control for bank heterogeneity, a fixed-effect regression method is used.

Findings
Bank-specific variables such as bank size, profitability, loan-to-deposit ratio and bank stability are positively associated with bank deposits, whereas the capital adequacy ratio is negatively associated with bank deposits. Macroeconomic variables such as remittances and gross domestic product per capita are positively associated with bank deposits. Moreover, institutional variables such as control of corruption, political stability and regulatory quality are positively associated with bank deposits. However, tail events such as the global financial crisis of 2007–09 and the COVID-19 pandemic negatively influence bank deposits. Structural breaks for 2007 and 2011 of two banks (Bank of the Baroda and Bank of the South Pacific, respectively) are positively associated with bank deposits.

Originality/value
Previous studies have considered profitability, competition, nonperforming loans and stability of banks in Fiji. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is the first to consider the determinants of bank deposits, an important source of funds for banks in many small countries including Fiji. In addition, this study examines the impact of structural breaks, tail events such as the recent pandemic (COVID-19) and institutional variables.

PurposeThis paper aims to present the mechanical design and kinematics of a novel rigid-flexible coupling hybrid robot to develop a promising aeroengine blades in situ repair technology.Design/methodology/approachAccording to requirements analysis, a novel rigid-flexible coupling hybrid robot is proposed by combining a three degrees of freedom (DOF) parallel mechanism with a flexible continuum section. Then the kinematics models of both parallel mechanism and flexible continuum section are derived respectively. Finally, based on equivalent joint method, a two-step numerical iterative inverse kinematics algorithm is proposed for the whole robot: (1) the flexible continuum section is equivalently transformed to a 2-DOF spherical joint, thus the approximate analytical inverse kinematic solution can be obtained; (2) the accurate solution is derived by an iterative derivation of both parallel mechanism and flexible continuum section.FindingsTo verify structure scheme and the proposed kinematics modeling method, numerical simulations and prototype experiments are implemented. The results show that the proposed kinematics algorithm has sufficient accuracy and computational efficiency in the whole available workspace, that is end-effector position error and orientation error are less than 0.2 mm and 0.01° respectively, and computation time is less than 0.22s.Originality/valueA novel rigid-flexible coupling hybrid robot for aeroengine blades in situ repair is designed. A two-step numerical iterative inverse kinematics algorithm is proposed for this unique hybrid robots, which has good accuracy and computational efficiency.
Exploring workplace well-being strategies in Iranian public organizations: a mixed methods study
Authors: Ghanbary Vanani Raziyeh , Danaee Fard Hassan , Kazemi Seyed Hossein , Delkhah Jalil 
Published: October 2024

PurposeTo ensure effective national governance, it is essential to enhance employees' well-being in the workplace. Employees with good mental and physical health are more likely to demonstrate a high level of commitment and engagement in advancing public policy objectives, which serve as instruments of public will. A comprehensive understanding of the various effective strategies to improve workplace well-being is indispensable to formulating human resource management policies within the public sector. Therefore, this study aims to uncover and prioritize the key strategies, programs and actions that contribute to enhancing the workplace well-being of public employees in Iran, drawing from their perspectives and experiences.Design/methodology/approachWe conducted a mixed-method study incorporating both qualitative and quantitative phases to recognize and measure these strategies. In the first phase, a qualitative content analysis was carried out based on the perspectives of Iranian public sector employees. In the subsequent phase, a questionnaire derived from the qualitative findings was randomly distributed to 374 employees from 14 public organizations. FindingsWorkplace well-being strategies can be summarized according to the level of their importance as follows: employees' well-being through “inter-personal relationship,” “systems,” “technologies,” “structure,” “culture” and “environment” within the organization. These strategies as six themes divided into 13 categories and 60 subcategories of programs and actions to promote employee well-being in the work setting.Originality/valueThe importance of considering employees' perspectives on workplace well-being is highlighted as a crucial aspect, rather than depending exclusively on managerial viewpoints for the implementation of well-being initiatives. Adopting an integrated and holistic approach to workplace well-being through strategies, programs and actions is another significant contribution of this study.
Threats and forced displacement in Colombia: an analysis based on municipal data
Authors: Vargas Marlyn Vanessa 
Published: October 2024

Purpose
This paper aims to examine the role of threats in the forced displacement of populations from their municipalities of origin in Colombia that is among the nations with the highest number of internally displaced people in the world with 6.7 million victims.

Design/methodology/approach
The data cover the period 2011–2017 and were obtained from the Unit for Attention and Integral Reparation to Victims. Using general panel data models and a difference-in-differences identification strategy, this paper finds that threats within the context of the armed conflict show a positive and significant contribution to forced displacement in municipalities.

Findings
Direct intimidations by illegal armed groups to the population seem to have an influence on the decision of the threatened person to leave the territory in general, although it is not a proportional reaction due to the fact that some victims of intimidations decide not to move to keep their assets and maintain territorial ties.

Research limitations/implications
The study highlights that the implementation of the Peace Agreements signed in 2016 and the negotiation with illegal armed groups is an effort that the Colombian State must strengthen to prevent the occurrence of threats.

Originality/value
This paper’s contribution to the literature is twofold: the paper reveals that rising threats encourage forced displacement in Colombia, by embracing a municipality panel data perspective and a difference-in-differences design that were not applied in previous studies; and the results offer suggestive evidence of the importance of decreasing threats for positive peace outcomes, especially in the most affected territories.
Organizational formalization neutralizes the effect of leader trait anger and vision on follower trust in the leader
Authors: Collins Michael , Li Yiqiong , Brienza Justin P. , Restubog Simon 
Published: October 2024

PurposeWe integrate trait, individual differences and substitutes for leadership theories to examine how leader trait anger influences leader vision and follower trust in the leader across high versus low levels of organizational formalization.Design/methodology/approachWe obtained data from two independent multi-source samples from different occupations and countries. Sample 1: leader–follower dyads (n = 179) collected over three measurement periods from the Philippines; Sample 2: cross-correlational sample of leaders (n = 166), their manager (n = 166) and their followers (n = 610) from Australia.FindingsWe tested our hypotheses using PROCESS (Hayes, 2018) and found that leader trait anger influenced follower trust in the leader both directly and indirectly through leader vision (Samples 1 & 2). We also found that organizational formalization neutralized the effect of leader vision on follower trust in the leader (Sample 2).Research limitations/implicationsWhile we used a time-lagged design in Sample 1, we cannot make strong causal claims as might be the case in an experimental study, for example.Practical implicationsOur results highlight the adverse effect of leader trait anger on perceptions of leader vision and follower trust in the leader, which we suggest should be considered in recruitment and promotion decisions. Our findings also suggest that high levels of organizational formalization may undermine the motivational effect of leader vision on followers, which should be considered in relation to organizational rules and procedures.Originality/valueThis research enhances our understanding of a previously unexplored boundary condition (i.e. organizational formalization) that appears to neutralize the motivational effect of leader vision. In addition, it highlights the ubiquitous effect of trait anger, in this case undermining the effectiveness of leader vision and trust in the leader, from two different observer perspectives (i.e. leaders’ followers and managers).
Chemical compositions and oxidative stabilities of cold‐pressed walnut oils (Juglans regia L.): Effects of chemical refining, water degumming, and molecular distillation

Published: October 2024

AbstractWalnut oils are of important academic and economic value, and are becoming one of the most important woody oils. Accurate and moderate refining techniques are required to produce high‐quality walnut oils. In this work, walnut oils obtained from cold processing were refined in three typical techniques, mainly chemical refining, water degumming, and molecular distillation. Physicochemical properties (acid value and peroxide value [POV]), minor components (tocopherol, polyphenols, and phytosterol), oxidative stability indices, and volatile compounds were analyzed to find out the appropriate refining method for the cold‐pressed walnut oils. Quality indices of all the refined oils from the three different refining methods met the requirements of the national standard, of which the POV of chemically refined oil (0.241 g/100 g) was higher than crude oil (0.058 g/100 g). Water degumming was most suitable for retaining of bioactive compounds, for example, the tocopherol was 259.40 mg/kg, the polyphenols was 44.54 mg GAE/kg, and the phytosterol was 987.32 mg/kg, but oxidation stability of the obtained oil (3.09 h) was lower than that of molecular distilled oil (4.18 h). Initial physicochemical properties especially the POV had a significant impact on oxidation stability. There is a trade‐off between the retention of nutrients and extending shelf life, indicating appropriate refining techniques should be developed; that is, water degumming is suggested to be involved in producing high‐quality cold‐pressed walnut oils.
Dielectric spectroscopy technology combined with machine learning methods for nondestructive detection of protein content in fresh milk
Authors: Liang Qing , Liu Yang , Zhang Hong , Xia Yifan , Che Jikai , Guo Jingchi 
Published: October 2024

AbstractTo quickly achieve nondestructive detection of protein content in fresh milk, this study utilized a network analyzer and an open coaxial probe to analyze the dielectric spectra of milk samples at 100 frequency points within the 2–20 GHz range, focusing on the dielectric constant ε' and the dielectric loss factor ε''. Feature variables were extracted from the full dielectric spectra using the successive projections algorithm (SPA), uninformative variables elimination (UVE), and the combined UVE‐SPA method. These variables were then used to develop partial least squares regression (PLSR), support vector machine (SVM), decision tree (DT), random forest (RF), and least squares boosting (LSBOOST) models for predicting protein content. The results showed that ε' decreased monotonically with increasing frequency, while ε'' increased monotonically. The UVE‐SPA method for feature extraction demonstrated superior performance, with the UVE‐SPA‐PLSR model being the best for predicting milk protein content, achieving the highest RC2 = 0.998 and RP2 = 0.989 and the lowest RMSEC = 0.019% and RMSEP = 0.032%. This study provides a theoretical reference for evaluating milk quality and developing intelligent detection equipment for natural milk.
Response surface optimization of protein extraction from cold‐pressed terebinth (Pistacia terebinthus L.) oil byproducts: Physicochemical and functional characteristics
Authors: Ozgolet Muhammed , Cakmak Zeynep Hazal Tekin , Bozkurt Fatih , Sagdic Osman , Karasu Salih 
Published: October 2024

AbstractThe current study focused on optimizing the extraction parameters of terebinth seed proteins from cold‐pressed terebinth oil byproducts to maximize protein purity and protein yield. The isolated proteins were characterized to evaluate their properties; thus revealing the valorization potential of these byproducts. Response surface methodology was used to detect the effect of three extraction parameters (pH, temperature, and time). The protein isolates were studied for their physicochemical and functional characteristics. The results indicated that an extraction pH of 8, a temperature of 50°C, and an extraction period of 60 min are optimum conditions for obtaining protein isolates with the highest purity. On the other hand, it was demonstrated that an extraction pH of 12, a temperature of 46.4°C, and an extraction duration of 102.4 min were optimum conditions for the maximum protein yield. The proteins produced under these two sets of conditions, referred to as TRP (terebinth protein with maximum purity) and TRY (terebinth protein with maximum yield), respectively, exhibited comparable oil absorption capacity (OAC), foaming, emulsifying capabilities, and stability. Both proteins showed the highest solubility at pH 11, and their zeta potentials approached zero at pH 4, indicating proximity to their isoelectric points. However, FRAP and DPPH assays showed that TRP and TRY offered low antioxidative capacity. The high β‐sheet content in TRP and TRY suggests enhanced thermal stability but reduced digestibility of these proteins. Therefore, in addition to protein enrichment, TRP and TRY protein isolates can be utilized in muffins and other food applications thanks to their favorable oil absorption, foaming and emulsifying capacities, and thermal stabilities.
Prognostic value of PSMA PET in predicting long‐term biochemical control following curative intent treatment for prostate cancer

Published: October 2024

AbstractIntroductionThe aim of this study is to investigate the prognostic value of 68Ga‐labelled prostate‐specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) metrics in predicting long‐term biochemical failure‐free survival (BFFS) following curative intent treatment for prostate cancer.MethodsWe completed a prospective study that followed men who had PSMA PET for staging of newly diagnosed prostate cancer between 2015 and 2017 who went on to have curative intent treatment with radiotherapy (RT) or radical prostatectomy (RP). PSMA PET CT imaging was reported and the intraprostatic maximum standardised uptake value (SUVmax) was recorded. The primary outcome was BFFS. Statistical analysis included descriptive statistics, Cox proportional hazards (PH) models, Kaplan–Meier survival analysis and a regression tree structured method.ResultsA total of 183 men were included in the analysis with a median age of 66 years and the majority of patients (55.2%) had ISUP grade 1–3 disease. All patients had PSMA PET staging prior to curative intent treatment with RP (66.1%) or external beam radiotherapy (33.9%). PSMA‐avid pelvic nodes were present in 26 patients but were not associated with worse biochemical control. A PSMA SUVmax of the prostate primary greater than the median (>5.6) was associated with a lower BFFS (HR: 4.4, 95% CI 1.42–3.72, P = 0.01). A multivariate Cox model incorporating initial biopsy grade, age and PSMA SUVmax showed that PSMA SUVmax was an independent predictor of BFFS. The RT‐structured method identified an optimal threshold of 6.8 for PSMA SUVmax, above which patients with ISUP 1–3 disease had a significantly worse BFFS.ConclusionPSMA SUVmax is a strong predictor of BFFS in patients with non‐metastatic prostate cancer who underwent curative intent treatment. Patients with low‐risk disease on biopsy (ISUP 1–3) but high PSMA SUVmax may have biochemical failure risk analogous to higher‐risk disease (ISUP 4–5). These findings allow for further risk stratification and prognosis of patients with newly diagnosed prostate cancer planned for definitive treatment.

AbstractLipid enals are electrophilic products of lipid peroxidation that induce genotoxic and proteotoxic stress by covalent modification of DNA and proteins, respectively. As lipid enals accumulate to substantial amounts in visceral adipose during obesity and aging, we hypothesized that biogenic lipid enals may represent an endogenously generated, and therefore physiologically relevant, senescence inducers. To that end, we identified that 4‐hydroxynonenal (4‐HNE), 4‐hydroxyhexenal (4‐HHE) or 4‐oxo‐2‐nonenal (4‐ONE) initiate the cellular senescence program of IMR90 fibroblasts and murine adipose stem cells. In such cells, lipid enals induced accumulation of γH2AX foci, increased p53 signaling, enhanced expression of p21Cip1, and upregulated the expression and secretion of numerous cytokines, chemokines, and regulatory factors independently from NF‐κB activation. Concomitantly, lipid enal treatment resulted in covalent modification of mitochondrial proteins, reduced mitochondrial spare respiratory capacity, altered nucleotide pools, and increased the phosphorylation of AMP kinase. Lipid‐induced senescent cells upregulated BCL2L1 (Bcl‐xL) and BCL2L2 (Bcl‐w). and were resistant to apoptosis while pharmacologic inhibition of BAX/BAK macropores attenuated lipid‐induced senescence. In situ, the 4‐HNE scavenger L‐carnosine ameliorated the development of the cellular senescence, while in visceral fat of obese C57BL/6J mice, L‐carnosine reduced the abundance of 4‐HNE‐modified proteins and blunted the expression of senescence biomarkers CDKN1A (p21Cip1), PLAUR, BCL2L1, and BCL2L2. Taken together, the results suggest that lipid enals are endogenous regulators of cellular senescence and that biogenic lipid‐induced senescence (BLIS) may represent a mechanistic link between oxidative stress and age‐dependent pathologies.
Peri‐implant medication‐related osteonecrosis of the jaw mimicking endodontic disease in a cancer patient: A case report
Authors: Rocha André Caroli , Mota Maria Emília , Lima Ricardo Costa , Pereira Nayara Fernanda , Alves Fabio Abreu , Moreira Maria Stella 
Published: October 2024

AbstractMedication‐related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a progressive condition that can cause significant bone loss and its diagnosis can be challenging. A 68‐year‐old man with a diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma, undergoing treatment with atezolizumab, bevacizumab and zoledronic acid, complained of spontaneous pain in the right lower second premolar. Oral examination revealed no dental changes and implants in the right jaw. A patient history and thorough clinical and radiographic examinations mimic endodontic disease. The implant crowns were removed, bleeding on probing, and peri‐implant pockets were observed. The main hypothesis was MRONJ Stage 2, and the surgical treatment was performed. The pain ceased and signs of MRONJ were not observed within 3 months. MRONJ should be considered as a hypothesis in the case of odontalgia and a patient's history of antiresorptive and antiangiogenic therapies. Furthermore, monitoring patients with dental implants in the mandible through detailed clinical and imaging evaluation is required.
Growing the peer workforce in rural mental health and social and emotional well‐being services: A scoping review of the literature

Published: October 2024

AbstractIntroductionGrowing the mental health peer workforce holds promise for rural communities, but we currently lack an understanding of the guidance available to support the development, implementation and sustainability of this workforce in rural settings.ObjectiveStudy aims are to: (1) determine the extent and nature of the literature that provides guidance for growing the peer workforce in rural mental health services; and (2) identify and explore any guidance relevant to rural peer work services dedicated to First Nations communities, including those promoting social and emotional well‐being within this body of literature.DesignA scoping review method was employed to identify relevant peer‐reviewed and grey literature published between 2013 and 2022 across PsychInfo, Medline, Embase and CINAHL, Scopus and Informit HealthInfoNet databases, as well as targeted organisation websites and Google Advanced Search.FindingsA total of 26 unique studies/projects were included from the US, UK, Canada and Australia with public mental health, non‐government/for purpose and private sector service settings represented in the literature. Grey literature, such as reports of evaluations and frameworks, formed the majority of included texts. While there is a lesser volume of rurally focused literature relative to the general peer work literature, this is a rich body of knowledge, which includes guidance concerning services dedicated to First Nations communities. Via synthesis critical considerations were identified for the development, implementation and sustainability of peer work in rural mental health services across six domains: ‘Working with community members and stakeholders’, ‘Organisational culture and governance’, Working with others and in teams, Professional expertise and experience, Being part of and working in the community and ‘Local mental health services capacity’.DiscussionWhile there are considerations relevant across a range of settings, the domains of: ‘working with community members and stakeholders’, ‘being part of and working in the community’ and ‘local mental health services capacity’, capture additional, distinct and nuanced challenges and opportunities for growing the peer work in rural services.ConclusionThe literature offers insights valuable for service planning, policy development and the allocation of resources to support rural peer workforce growth.
