Published: May 2024

PurposeThere has been a dramatic rise in the use of online food delivery apps (FDAs) services since the COVID-19 pandemic. Though online FDAs have contributed significantly to the rise in demand for products from the gourmet industry, little is known regarding the factors that inspire customers to order from online FDAs, subsequently influencing customers’ satisfaction. Considering the knowledge gap, this study utilizes the stimulus-organism-response (S-O-R) model to conceptualize the factors: stimuli (eWOM, online reviews and online deals as external stimuli, and late-night craving and convenience as internal stimuli) that determine the organism level (i.e. customers’ inspiration) to subsequently generate the response (i.e. customers’ satisfaction).Design/methodology/approachWe collected the data from 388 users and analyzed it via partial least squares – structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM).FindingsThe results reveal that online reviews, deals, late-night food cravings and convenience positively determine customers’ inspiration and satisfaction. In contrast, eWOM fails to impact customers’ inspiration directly and indirectly, affecting customers’ satisfaction through inspiration. Besides, customers’ inspiration positively mediates the relationship between stimuli (e.g. online reviews, online deals, late-night cravings and convenience) and customers’ satisfaction.Originality/valueThis study is novel in that it explores the impact of internal (late-night craving and convenience) and external (eWOM, online reviews and online deals) stimuli on customer inspiration and subsequently predicts customer satisfaction. We also expand prior studies on food delivery apps by studying customer inspiration as a mediating mechanism between internal and external stimuli and customer satisfaction.

Published: June 2024

PurposeThe paper aims to the size-dependent analysis of functionally graded materials in thermal environment based on the modified couple stress theory using finite element method.Design/methodology/approachThe element formulation is developed within the framework of the penalty unsymmetric finite element method (FEM) in that the C1 continuity requirement is satisfied in weak sense and thus, C0 continuous interpolation enhanced by independent nodal rotation is employed as the test function. Meanwhile, the trial function is designed based on the stress functions and the weighted residual method. Besides, the special Gauss quadrature scheme is employed for integrals of matrices in accordance with the graded variation of the material properties.FindingsThe numerical results reveal that in thermal environment, functionally graded materials exhibit better bending performance compared to homogeneous materials, Moreover, the findings also indicate that with an increase in MLSP, the natural frequencies of out-of-plane modes gradually increase, while the natural frequencies of in-plane modes show much less variation, leading to a mode switch phenomenon.Originality/valueThe work provides an efficient numerical tool for analyzing and designing the functionally graded structures in thermal environment in practical engineering applications.
An approach based on open research knowledge graph for knowledge acquisition from scientific papers
Authors: Jiomekong Azanzi , Tiwari Sanju 
Published: June 2024

Purpose
This paper aims to curate open research knowledge graph (ORKG) with papers related to ontology learning and define an approach using ORKG as a computer-assisted tool to organize key-insights extracted from research papers.

Design/methodology/approach
Action research was used to explore, test and evaluate the use of the Open Research Knowledge Graph as a computer assistant tool for knowledge acquisition from scientific papers.

Findings
To extract, structure and describe research contributions, the granularity of information should be decided; to facilitate the comparison of scientific papers, one should design a common template that will be used to describe the state of the art of a domain.

Originality/value
This approach is currently used to document “food information engineering,” “tabular data to knowledge graph matching” and “question answering” research problems and the “neurosymbolic AI” domain. More than 200 papers are ingested in ORKG. From these papers, more than 800 contributions are documented and these contributions are used to build over 100 comparison tables. At the end of this work, we found that ORKG is a valuable tool that can reduce the working curve of state-of-the-art research.
The relationship between conscientiousness, openness to experience, knowledge-hiding behavior and job performance of employees
Authors: Nguyễn Nam Kim , Nguyễn Nga Thị Ha˘̀ng 
Published: June 2024

Purpose
Knowledge-hiding behavior can lead to adverse consequences for individuals and organizations. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between personality traits, knowledge-hiding behavior and job performance in the banking sector in Vietnam.

Design/methodology/approach
This study used a quantitative approach to test the proposed research model using a linear structural modeling method. Data were collected from 291 employees working in commercial banks in Vietnam using a direct survey instrument.

Findings
The conscientiousness personality trait exhibits a negative relationship with explicit knowledge-hiding behavior but demonstrates a positive association with tacit knowledge-hiding behavior. Openness to experience is negatively correlated with both explicit and tacit knowledge-hiding behaviors. Explicit knowledge-hiding behavior is negatively related to job performance, whereas tacit knowledge-hiding behavior has a positive relationship with job performance. Knowledge-hiding behavior played an intermediary role in the relationship between conscientiousness and job performance.

Originality/value
The extent to which employees engage in knowledge hiding depends on whether the knowledge is explicit or tacit. The impact of knowledge hiding on job performance is contingent upon the nature of hidden knowledge, whether explicit or tacit, and can either diminish or enhance job performance.
AI based optimal analysis of electro-osmotic peristaltic motion of non-Newtonian fluid with chemical reaction using artificial neural networks and response surface methodology
Authors: Zeeshan Ahmed , Asghar Zaheer , Rehaman Amad ur 
Published: June 2024

Purpose
The present work is devoted to investigating the sensitivity analysis of the electroosmotic peristaltic motion of non-Newtonian Casson fluid with the effect of the chemical reaction and magnetohydrodynamics through the porous medium. The main focus is on flow efficiency quantities such as pressure rise per wavelength, frictional forces on the upper wall and frictional forces on the lower wall. This initiative is to bridge the existing gap in the available literature.

Design/methodology/approach
The governing equations of the problem are mathematically formulated and subsequently simplified for sensitivity analysis under the assumptions of a long wavelength and a small Reynolds number. The simplified equations take the form of coupled nonlinear differential equations, which are solved using the built-in Matlab routine bvp4c. The response surface methodology and artificial neural networks are used to develop the empirical model for pressure rise per wavelength, frictional forces on the upper wall and frictional forces on the lower wall.

Findings
The empirical model demonstrates an excellent fit with a coefficient of determination reaching 100% for responses, frictional forces on the upper wall and frictional forces on the lower wall and 99.99% for response, for pressure rise per wavelength. It is revealed through the sensitivity analysis that pressure rise per wavelength, frictional forces on the upper wall and frictional forces on the lower wall are most sensitive to the permeability parameter at all levels.

Originality/value
The objective of this study is to use artificial neural networks simulation and analyze the sensitivity of electroosmotic peristaltic motion of non-Newtonian fluid with the effect of chemical reaction.
Analyst teams and the assembly bonus
Authors: Brightbill Kathryn 
Published: May 2024

PurposeAnalyst team forecasts are the most frequent form of earnings expectations available to investors, with teams issuing more than 70% of research reports in 2016. Prior research provides differing evidence on whether analyst teams issue higher or lower quality forecasts than individual analysts.Design/methodology/approachI use a sample of more than 17,000 hand-collected analyst reports representing 7,586 forecasts from 89 companies in three industries from 1994–2005.FindingsI document that analyst teams benefit from an assembly bonus, and issue more accurate forecasts than individual analysts only in time periods when teams would be expected to benefit from an assembly bonus.Practical implicationsI outline multiple factors within the control of brokerage houses that impact teams’ relative forecast quality, such as the number of members in the team, how long the team has worked as a unit and the costliness of integrating information when forming a forecast.Originality/valueGiven the preponderance of analyst teams and the strength of market reaction to their forecasts, it is valuable to document factors both in the past and present likely to affect analyst teams’ relative forecast accuracy.

Published: June 2024

PurposeThe objective of this research is to examine the accelerated adoption mechanisms of emerging technologies in information systems. Its goal is to comprehend the drivers behind the prompt assimilation of technology trends such as TikTok, ChatGPT, mobile payment schemes, cryptocurrency and VR.Design/methodology/approachThe study follows the systematic literature review methodology (using the PRISMA protocol to guide the selection of scholarly materials from Google Scholar, Scopus and Springer). Specifically, the research draws on identified literature on the adoption trajectories of technologies (ChatGPT, TikTok, cryptocurrency, mobile payment systems, and virtual reality) to systematically assess pertinent insights, and draws on theoretical lenses of Disruptive Innovation Theory to reach interpretations.FindingsThe study indicates that the prompt assimilation of technology is shaped by several variables such as user-centered design, network effects, content powered through algorithms, viral trends, ease-of-use and accessibility features, engagement levels and retention rates.Research limitations/implicationsThe selection of specific platforms may limit the generalizability of findings.Social implicationsThe emergence of new technologies is causing a shift in societal behaviors and norms, which has significant social implications. While platforms such as TikTok offer opportunities for community-building, there are concerns regarding digital divide and privacy issues that need to be addressed. So understanding the impact of these changes becomes vital for achieving fairness in access and making technology's potential transformation practicalized effectively.Originality/valueThis research enhances the current body of literature by presenting a thorough examination of the non-linear patterns involved in adopting advanced technologies. By combining knowledge from numerous fields, this study delivers an integrated comprehension regarding what factors prompt swift adoption.
‘Love‐communion’: Catholicism, sexuality and pleasure in 1970s Mexico
Authors: Gasparowicz Natalie 
Published: May 2024

AbstractThis article examines how a Mexican couple envisioned an alternate Catholic approach to sexuality, called love‐communion, at the Mujeres para el Diálogo (MPD), or Women in Dialogue conference in 1979 in Puebla, Mexico. Love‐communion was based entirely on intimacy, de‐emphasising the procreative purpose the Church had preached for centuries. Surprisingly, love‐communion paid attention to questions of pleasure and same‐sex couples. Such open debate, let alone a radical vision imagined by a married Catholic couple, would be unimaginable in just a few years, especially in the face of politicisation about sex in the 1980s. While scholarship has focused on how liberation theology was a key issue at Puebla in 1979, this article argues another issue was just as central: the question of sex. This article also challenges previous scholarship on feminist mobilisation, which has primarily remembered the conference as turning point for the organising of Catholic feminists, and on family planning, which has embraced the perspectives of Catholic actors, but has neglected the perspectives of Catholic women. Historicising and analysing one of the only sources about the 1979 MPD conference reveals a story of loss – what could have been if the Church had listened to its followers, such as this couple.

Published: June 2024

AbstractMicrobial communities from extreme environments are largely understudied, but are essential as producers of metabolites, including enzymes, for industrial processes. As cultivation of most microorganisms remains a challenge, culture‐independent approaches for enzyme discovery in the form of metagenomics to analyse the genetic potential of a community are rapidly becoming the way forward. This study focused on analysing a metagenome from the cold and alkaline ikaite columns in Greenland, identifying 282 open reading frames (ORFs) that encoded putative carbohydrate‐modifying enzymes with potential applications in, for example detergents and other processes where activity at low temperature and high pH is desired. Seventeen selected ORFs, representing eight enzyme families were synthesized and expressed in two host organisms, Escherichia coli and Aliivibrio wodanis. Aliivibrio wodanis demonstrated expression of a more diverse range of enzyme classes compared to E. coli, emphasizing the importance of alternative expression systems for enzymes from extremophilic microorganisms. To demonstrate the validity of the screening strategy, we chose a recombinantly expressed cellulolytic enzyme from the metagenome for further characterization. The enzyme, Cel240, exhibited close to 40% of its relative activity at low temperatures (4°C) and demonstrated endoglucanase characteristics, with a preference for cellulose substrates. Despite low sequence similarity with known enzymes, computational analysis and structural modelling confirmed its cellulase‐family affiliation. Cel240 displayed activity at low temperatures and good stability at 25°C, activity at alkaline pH and increased activity in the presence of CaCl2, making it a promising candidate for detergent and washing industry applications.

Published: June 2024

AbstractPerioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) is a serious neurologic complication in aged patients and might be associated with sevoflurane exposure. However, the specific pathogenesis is still unclear. The distribution of α5‐GABAAR, a γ‐aminobutyric acid type A receptor (GABAAR) subtype, at extrasynaptic sites is influenced by the anchor protein radixin, whose phosphorylation is regulated via the RhoA/ROCK2 signaling pathway and plays a crucial role in cognition. However, whether sevoflurane affects the ability of radixin phosphorylation to alter extrasynaptic receptor expression is unknown. Aged mice were exposed to sevoflurane to induce cognitive impairment. Both total proteins and membrane proteins were extracted for analysis. Cognitive function was evaluated using the Morris water maze and fear conditioning test. Western blotting was used to determine the expression of ROCK2 and the phosphorylation of radixin. Furthermore, the colocalization of p‐radixin and α5‐GABAAR was observed. To inhibit ROCK2 activity, either an adeno‐associated virus (AAV) or fasudil hydrochloride was administered. Aged mice treated with sevoflurane exhibited significant cognitive impairment accompanied by increased membrane expression of α5‐GABAAR. Moreover, the colocalization of α5‐GABAAR and p‐radixin increased after treatment with sevoflurane, and this change was accompanied by an increase in ROCK2 expression and radixin phosphorylation. Notably, inhibiting the RhoA/ROCK2 pathway significantly decreased the distribution of extrasynaptic α5‐GABAAR and improved cognitive function. Sevoflurane activates the RhoA/ROCK2 pathway and increases the phosphorylation of radixin. Excess α5‐GABAAR is anchored to extrasynaptic sites and impairs cognitive ability in aged mice. Fasudil hydrochloride administration improves cognitive function.

SummaryBackgroundGenetic factors contribute to the risk and severity of metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). However, the utility of genetic testing in risk stratification remains poorly characterised.AimsTo examine the influence of genetic risk on advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and the utility of a polygenic risk score (PRS) in screening guidelines.MethodsWe prospectively enrolled adults aged ≥50 years with T2DM recruited from clinics. PRS was the sum of risk alleles in PNPLA3, TM6SF2 and SERPINA1 minus the protective variant in HSD17B13. We performed magnetic resonance elastography and vibration‐controlled transient elastography to assess for advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis.ResultsOf 382 included patients, the mean age and BMI were 64.8 (±8.4) years and 31.7 (±6.2) kg/m2 respectively. The prevalence of advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis were 12.3% and 5.2% respectively; higher PRS was associated with increased risk of cirrhosis (2.7% vs. 7.5%, p = 0.037). High PRS was associated with increased risk of advanced fibrosis among those with fibrosis‐4 index (FIB‐4) index <1.3 (9.6% vs. 2.3%, p = 0.036) but was not significantly different in other FIB‐4 categories. Incorporating PRS determination into the American Gastroenterological Association and American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases screening guidelines prevented approximately 20% of all participants with advanced fibrosis from being inappropriately classified as low risk.ConclusionsUtilising a well‐phenotyped, prospective cohort of adults with T2DM, we found that adding an assessment of genetic risk to recommendations to screen at‐risk populations may improve risk prediction.

AbstractPurposeTo investigate dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) within the cerebellar‐whole brain network and dynamic topological properties of the cerebellar network in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients.MethodsSixty male patients and 60 male healthy controls were included. The sliding window method examined the fluctuations in cerebellum‐whole brain dFC and connection strength in OSA. Furthermore, graph theory metrics evaluated the dynamic topological properties of the cerebellar network. Additionally, hidden Markov modeling validated the robustness of the dFC. The correlations between the abovementioned measures and clinical assessments were assessed.ResultsTwo dynamic network states were characterized. State 2 exhibited a heightened frequency, longer fractional occupancy, and greater mean dwell time in OSA. The cerebellar networks and cerebrocerebellar dFC alterations were mainly located in the default mode network, frontoparietal network, somatomotor network, right cerebellar CrusI/II, and other networks. Global properties indicated aberrant cerebellar topology in OSA. Dynamic properties were correlated with clinical indicators primarily on emotion, cognition, and sleep.ConclusionAbnormal dFC in male OSA may indicate an imbalance between the integration and segregation of brain networks, concurrent with global topological alterations. Abnormal default mode network interactions with high‐order and low‐level cognitive networks, disrupting their coordination, may impair the regulation of cognitive, emotional, and sleep functions in OSA.
Pathogenicity and colonization of Metrosideros polymorpha by Ceratocystis huliohia
Authors: Juzwik Jennifer , Hughes Marc A. , Keith Lisa M. 
Published: June 2024

AbstractBoth Ceratocystis lukuohia and C. huliohia have been associated with Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death (ROD), an emerging threat to ʻōhiʻa (Metrosideros polymorpha), a keystone forest tree species. The vascular wilt disease caused by C. lukuohia has been recently described and is responsible for the widespread ROD epidemic on Hawai'i Island. However, the role of C. huliohia in ROD development and tree death is not clear. Artificial inoculation of field‐grown ʻōhiʻa with C. huliohia and dissections of naturally infected, early symptomatic forest trees were conducted to confirm pathogenicity on field grown trees and the pattern of internal colonization. In two trials, crowns of trees with main stems inoculated with C. huliohia were visually healthy at the time of tree harvest after 43–55 days in the first trial, and after 91 days in the second trial. However, elliptical inner bark cankers underlain by reddish‐brown xylem were associated with the inoculation points. Similar canker and stain symptoms were found on stems and branches of ʻōhiʻa (24–26 cm trunk diameter) naturally infected by C. huliohia. This xylem stain manifested as multiple distinct elliptical cankers or the coalescing of multiple cankers. The pathogen was commonly isolated from the perimeter of the stained outer sapwood and to a depth of 4 cm. The coalescence of multiple cankers was associated with the crown symptoms observed on the naturally infected forest trees that were dissected. Multiple C. huliohia infections that lead to coalescing cankers which subsequently girdle stems likely occurs over one or more years compared to the shorter time (e.g., months) required for C. lukuohia‐caused death to occur.
