Published: August 2024

PurposeStudent engagement evaluation is considered to be connected to many aspects of the management of higher education, but outside Western higher education, research and evaluation on student engagement and experiences has been limited so far. Our study focuses on the underexplored aspects of Palestinian higher education with the aim of gaining an actionable understanding from the overall student engagement situation to enhance the management and development of local teaching and learning practices.Design/methodology/approachA quantitatively oriented, sequential mixed-methods design was adopted. With the applied and validated engagement measurement we collected 946 engagement questionnaire responses from Palestinian university students. Quantitative data were analysed using structural equation modelling, K-means cluster analysis and chi-squared tests. Inductive and deductive thematic analysis was employed for the open answers.FindingsWith the three validated student engagement dimensions, the applied cluster analysis allowed three different engagement profile groups to be distinguished: strongly, moderately and loosely engaged. In the subsequent statistical and qualitative thematic analyses, these three engagement clusters differ in the degree to which they had a clear vision of a future profession or in their academic engagement with their studies. Moreover, qualitative analysis brought up many shared concerns regarding theoretically oriented studies and uncertain professional and career prospects in the Palestinian higher education context.Originality/valueThis study is one of the first attempts to develop tools for student engagement management in Palestinian higher education. The study findings are particularly significant for developing micro- and meso-level management practices in Palestinian higher education institutions.
Are Islamic banks really resilient to crises: new evidence from the COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Chazi Abdelaziz , Mirzaei Ali , Zantout Zaher 
Published: August 2024

Purpose
Proponents of Islamic banking believe that this banking model is relatively superior in times of financial crises. This study aims to examine whether Islamic banks were more resilient to the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic than their conventional peers, especially in terms of two of the most important banking risks, capital and liquidity risks.

Design/methodology/approach
The authors use a regression model to examine whether Islamic banks were more resilient to the recent health crisis, as compared to their conventional counterparts. The results are robust to alternative crisis time periods, the use of different model specifications and the inclusion of different control variables.

Findings
Unlike during the 2007–2008 global financial crisis (GFC), Islamic banks have not performed relatively well during the more recent crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The results show that Islamic banks experienced an increase in both capital and liquidity risks. The results also indicate a decrease in bank profitability, improved solvency and asset quality and a decrease in operational risk.

Originality/value
This study contributes to the literature on banking business model and resilience to economic crises. Contrary to some expectations and to their performance during the GFC of 2007–2008, Islamic banks were found to be more vulnerable during the COVID-19 pandemic than conventional banks.

Published: August 2024

PurposeThrough the lens of the Social Exchange Theory, this study investigates the role of emotional and psychological well-being in explaining the relationship between academic stress and friendship quality.Design/methodology/approachUsing a cross-sectional quantitative research design, the study gathered data from 298 tertiary students. Statistical analysis was conducted using Hayes Process Macro in SPSS.FindingsResults from the study challenge conventional assumptions, indicating a positive and significant relationship between academic stress and friendship quality. In addition, the study revealed that psychological well-being partially mediates the relationship between academic stress and friendship quality, while emotional well-being fully mediates the relationship between academic stress and friendship quality.Research limitations/implicationsThis study is limited to the tertiary institutions in Ghana. Future studies may consider expanding the scope to other levels of education to gain a more comprehensive perspective of the variables of the study.Originality/valueThis study presents a novel approach by examining the proposed model within the Ghanaian setting. It offers valuable perspectives on the interplay between academic stress, well-being, and friendship quality.
A bibliometric perspective: three stages of green knowledge management thematic evolution in business literature
Authors: Phung Phuong Thanh , Luu Nghia Thi Minh , Nguyen Anh T.V. , Siriwardana Anushka , Halibas Alrence 
Published: August 2024

Purpose
Green knowledge management (GKM) has become a more prominent research topic because of its ability to balance business sustainability, performance and society's well-being. The purpose of this paper is to study how GKM literature evolved before and after two major events: the introduction of sustainable development goals (SDGs) and the first conceptualization of GKM. In this paper, GKM is holistically examined following the stages of the knowledge management cycle, a framework for organizational knowledge-processing phases.

Design/methodology/approach
This study performed a bibliometric analysis of 1,274 papers related to GKM from 1995 until January 2024.

Findings
Over the three decades, this research outlined the intertwined relationships between core themes in the domain such as knowledge management in the context of corporate social responsibilities, sustainable development (SD), competitive advantage and so on, and popular theories. GKM evolved from an “industrial and technical view” of knowledge management to a more emerging perspective of a “social process.” Emerging themes were identified such as green innovation, information security or organizational learning sub-themes with key technologies like block-chain, big data analytics and artificial intelligence. Future research can explore themes such as green knowledge integration, green entrepreneurship, green supply chain and green knowledge integration capabilities.

Practical implications
This review offers practitioners a holistic picture of GKM to tackle emerging environmental concerns and increase businesses' competitive advantages. This study provides insights into the future practices of GKM, incorporating emerging technological advancement, to gain green intellectual capital and build dynamic capabilities for sustainability.

Originality/value
To the best of authors’ knowledge, this study is the first to provide a comprehensive picture of the GKM literature, from its earliest forms of corporate social responsibility and SD until the introduction of SDGs, and in combination with the evolution of knowledge management cycle stages.

AbstractObjectiveTo identify factors associated with neonatal respiratory distress (NRD) in early Gestational diabetes mellitus (eGDM).DesignNested case–control analysis of the TOBOGM trial.SettingSeventeen hospitals: Australia, Sweden, Austria and India.PopulationPregnant women, <20 weeks' gestation, singleton, GDM risk factors.MethodsWomen with GDM risk factors completed an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) before 20 weeks: those with eGDM (WHO‐2013 criteria) were randomised to immediate or deferred GDM treatment. Logistic regression compared pregnancies with/without NRD, and in pregnancies with NRD, those with/without high‐dependency nursery admission for ≤24 h with those admitted for >24 h. Comparisons were adjusted for age, pre‐pregnancy body mass index, ethnicity, smoking, primigravity, education and site. Adjusted odds ratios (95% CI) are reported.Main Outcome MeasuresNRD definition: ≥4 h of respiratory support (supplemental oxygen or supported ventilation) postpartum. Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS): Supported ventilation and ≥24 h nursery stay.ResultsNinety‐nine (12.5%) of 793 infants had NRD; incidence halved (0.50, 0.31–0.79) if GDM treatment was started early. NRD was associated with Caesarean section (2.31, 1.42–3.76), large for gestational age (LGA) (1.83, 1.09–3.08) and shorter gestation (0.95, 0.93–0.97 per day longer). Among NRD infants, >24 h nursery‐stay was associated with higher OGTT 1‐h glucose (1.38, 1.08–1.76 per mmol/L). Fifteen (2.0%) infants had RDS.ConclusionsIdentifying and treating eGDM reduces NRD risk. NRD is more likely with Caesarean section, LGA and shorter gestation. Further studies are needed to understand the mechanisms behind this eGDM complication and any long‐term effects.
Genuine CSR motive and organizational attractiveness: The effects of a Company's inconsistent CSR behaviors on moral jobseekers
Authors: Kim Kihyon , Jhang JiHoon , Oh Se‐Hyung 
Published: August 2024

AbstractResearch on recruitment shows that jobseekers display positive attitudinal and behavioral responses to potential employers' corporate social responsibility (CSR), while corporate social irresponsibility (CSI) works contrariwise. However, few studies have examined how jobseekers react to companies that show the two attributes in an inconsistent way. This study investigates how jobseekers' perceptions of a company, shaped by its CSR history, are changed based on its recent CSR/CSI practices. It also examines how jobseekers' moral traits affect their perceptions of and behavioral intentions toward the company, influenced by the (in)consistency of its CSR. The results of a scenario‐based experiment with 203 subjects show that jobseekers perceive a company with a strong (vs. weak) CSR history as warmer and infer that its CSR motive is genuine. However, when they obtain information about the company's recent CSI practices, they tend to perceive that the motivation of the previous CSR is not genuine and are less likely to be attracted by the company. This tendency is amplified when the jobseekers have a strong propensity to belong to ethical organizations. This research contributes to the literature on the effects of the (in)consistency of a company's CSR on its external stakeholders.
A social price to the rising cost of living? The bidirectional relationship between inflation and trust
Authors: Wu Cary , Bierman Alex , Schieman Scott 
Published: August 2024

AbstractThis study examines whether social trust, the general belief that most people are honest and trustworthy, shapes perceptions of personal increases in cost of living and whether perceptions of increases in cost of living affect social trust. We analyze panel data from the Canadian Quality of Work and Economic Life Study (N = 2353) that was gathered between the fall of 2021 and spring of 2022, when inflation rose precipitously in Canada. Using a combination of entropy balancing and logistic regression, we estimate a statistically significant but weak causal effect of social trust on the perception of an increase in cost of living. The estimated causal effect of subjective inflation on declining trust is substantially larger. Additionally, financial strain does not moderate either estimated causal effect. In conclusion, rising inflation appears to not only threaten economic security—inflation also appears to harm the social fabric by depleting social trust.

Published: August 2024

AbstractObjectiveExploring the performance of ultrasound‐based radiomics in forecasting major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) within 1 year following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients.MethodsIn this research, 161 ACS patients who underwent PCI were included (114 patients were randomly assigned to the training set and 47 patients to the validation set). Every patient received echocardiography 3–7 days after PCI and followed up for 1 year. The radiomics features related to MACE occurrence were extracted and selected to formulate the RAD score. Building ultrasound personalized model by incorporating RAD score, LVEF, LVGLS, and NT‐ProBNP. The model's capacity to predict was tested using ROC curves.ResultsMultifactorial logistic regression analysis of RAD score with clinical data and echocardiographic parameters indicated RAD score and LVGLS as independent risk factors for the occurrence of MACE. The RAD score predicted MACE, with AUC values of 0.85 and 0.86 in the training and validation sets. The ultrasound personalized model had a superior ability to predict the occurrence of MACE, with AUC values of 0.88 and 0.92, which were higher than those of the clinical model (with AUC of 0.72 and 0.80) without RAD score (Z = 3.711, 2.043, P < .001, P = .041). Furthermore, DCA indicated that the ultrasound personalization model presented a more favorable net clinical benefit.ConclusionsUltrasound radiomics can be a reliable tool to predict the incidence of MACE after PCI in patients with ACS and provides quantifiable data for personalized clinical treatment.

AbstractConservation decisions surrounding which fish habitats managers choose to protect and restore are informed by fish habitat models. As acoustic telemetry has allowed for improvements in our ability to directly measure fish positions year‐round, so too have there been opportunities to refine and apply fish habitat models. In an area with considerable anthropogenic disturbance, Hamilton Harbour in the Laurentian Great Lakes, we used telemetry‐based fish habitat models to identify key habitat variables, compare habitat associations among seasons, and spatially identify the presence distribution of six fish species. Using environmental data and telemetry‐based presence–absence from 2016 to 2022, random forest models were developed for each species across seasons. Habitat variables with the highest relative importance across species included fetch, water depth, and percentage cover of submerged aquatic vegetation. The presence probability of each species was spatially predicted for each season within Hamilton Harbour. Generally, species showed a spatial range expansion with greater presence probability in the fall and winter to include parts of the harbor further offshore, and a range contraction in the spring and summer toward the nearshore, sheltered areas, with summer having the most limited habitat availability. Greater habitat suitability was predicted in western Hamilton Harbour for the majority of species, whereas the east end was less suitable and may benefit from habitat restoration. These types of fish habitat models are highly flexible and can be used with a variety of data, not just telemetry, and should be considered as an additional tool for fish habitat and fisheries managers alike.
Profilicity and online safety legislation
Authors: KEENAN BERNARD 
Published: August 2024

AbstractThis article applies the concept of profilicity to the emergence of online harms legislation. Grounded in social systems theory, profilicity designates a mode of self‐presentation prevalent in social media environments, though discernible in the growing number of situations where personal identity is mediated via a profile intended to be publicly observed. Profilicity is distinctly different to ‘sincere’ and ‘authentic’ modes of self‐presentation, though they survive alongside it. The concept productively reframes what is at stake in the regulation of ‘harmful’ content on platform‐based communications, exemplified in the Online Safety Act 2023, which is subject to extensive criticism for invading privacy and mandating the censorship of lawful speech – values that evolved in relation to authenticity and autonomy. Profilicity engages law first via the identity techniques that law presupposes and second via the design decisions that it now regulates.

AbstractObjectiveThis systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to compare the risk of recurrence and cancer progression after surgical treatment for oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMD) and precancerous lesions in different anatomical sites.Materials and MethodsA comprehensive search was conducted in nine databases and grey literature. We included randomized controlled trials assessing surgical treatment efficacy for OPMD and precancerous lesions of cervical, vaginal, anal, and penile sites. Excision or ablation surgical treatments were considered.ResultsOverall, 12 studies met the eligibility criteria for oral leukoplakia (OL), proliferative verrucous leukoplakia, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia, and anal intraepithelial neoplasia (AIN). In qualitative analysis of surgical protocols, the lack of margin description impacts the clinical outcomes of OL and AIN, and the ablative protocols were heterogeneous in both OPMD and precancerous lesions. No significant difference in OL (risk ratio 0.82 [95% CI: 0.59–1.15]) and CIN (risk ratio 0.31 [95% CI: 0.09–1.09]) for recurrence was observed when cold‐knife was compared with ablative protocols. OL exhibited higher recurrence and cancer progression rates compared to CIN and AIN.ConclusionThere is no difference in recurrence risk post‐surgical treatment for OL and CIN. Surgical protocols for oral leukoplakia and CIN/AIN lack standardized approaches.

AbstractObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate the expression and biological significance of Semenogelin 1 (SEMG1), a member of the cancer‐testis antigen family, in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Further, we explored its potential association with metabolism‐related molecules.MethodsSEMG1 expression levels in OSCC were determined through immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, and Western blot analyses. To decipher the biological implications of SEMG1 in OSCC, the CAL27 OSCC cell line was either stably overexpressed with SEMG1 or subjected to SEMG1‐shRNA knockdown. The relationship between clinicopathological parameters and SEMG1 expression in OSCC patients was also assessed.ResultsSEMG1 was found to be overexpressed in OSCC, though its expression was not influenced by the pathological grade. The fluorescent dihydroethidium assay indicated that SEMG1 augmented reactive oxygen species production. The mitochondrial membrane potential assay suggested a significant upregulation of mitochondrial membrane potential by SEMG1. Cell cycle assessments highlighted that SEMG1 overexpression led to a notable rise in cells entering the S‐phase. Additionally, a strong correlation between SEMG1 expression and both ENO1 and PKM2 expression in OSCC was observed.ConclusionsThe findings underscore the elevated expression of SEMG1 in OSCC and its contributory role in the tumorigenesis of OSCC patients.
Schlieren Image Velocimetry and Modal Decomposition Study of Preheated Isothermal Flow From a Generic Multi-Swirl Burner
Authors: Vishnoi Neha , Saurabh Aditya , Kabiraj Lipika 
Published: August 2024

Abstract
This study presents an experimental investigation into the turbulent flow characteristics of an unconfined counter-rotating dual swirl burner under external acoustic excitation. Utilizing Schlieren image velocimetry (SIV), we capture the velocity field of the swirling jets. Mean velocity field analysis reveals the upstream propagation of the central recirculation zone within the burner passages. Through proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) analysis on instantaneous axial velocity fields, coherent structures are identified and the impact of different actuation methods on spatial modes is illustrated. Spatial modes of the unforced (natural) flow show the presence of a single and double helical precessing vortex core (PVC) modes at St = 0.53. Low-frequency acoustic actuation (St = 0.46) effectively suppresses the PVC mode, while high-frequency (St = 2) actuation stabilizes it. Broadband excitation of the flow field, however, induces the excitation of both single and double helical PVC modes.

Published: August 2024

Carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs) are rare intracranial vascular malformations. Among the various classifications available, the most recently proposed highlights the strong correlation between venous drainage pattern and clinical presentation. We present the case of a woman in her 70s with a history of transient palsy of the fourth cranial nerve who presented with subacute cervical myelopathy, which was caused by a CCF with venous drainage into the peribulbar and perimedullary plexus.Given this atypical presentation of CCF and the diagnostic challenges it poses, we conducted a comprehensive PubMed search looking for CCFs presenting with cervical myelopathy and our results confirmed their rarity and allowed us to identify clinical elements that may help clinicians diagnose and manage this potentially treatable condition.
