Authors: Chaturvedi Sharma Pooja 
Published: April 2024

PurposeThis study examines the effects of financial literacy and financial risk tolerance on investor behavior by introducing social stigma as a mediator and emotional intelligence as a moderating factor.Design/methodology/approachData is collected from 761 financially independent individual investors, with a minimum age of 25 years, a minimum of five years of stock market experience and residing in five selected major Indian cities. The collected data is subsequently analyzed using SmartPLS. Homogeneous purposive sampling followed by snowball sampling was employed.FindingsThe findings of the study demonstrate a strong and noteworthy impact of financial literacy on investor behavior. The research reveals that social stigma acts as a partial mediator and emotional intelligence plays a significant moderator with direct effects and indirect effects between financial literacy, financial risk tolerance, social stigma and investor behavior.Research limitations/implicationsExploring emotional intelligence in financial decisions enriches academic programs by integrating it into financial education. Collaboration between academia and financial institutions yields practical tools, infusing emotional intelligence into services. This prompts systemic shifts, reshaping education and societal discourse, fostering inclusive, emotionally intelligent financial landscapes, aiming to redefine both academic teachings and real-world financial practices.Practical implicationsIntegrating emotional intelligence into government-led financial literacy programs can transform societal perspectives on financial decision-making. Customized services, destigmatizing workshops and collaborative efforts with academia foster an emotionally intelligent financial landscape, reshaping traditional paradigms.Social implicationsPromoting open societal discussions about finances combats stigma, fostering a supportive space for risk-taking. Emphasizing emotional intelligence in awareness campaigns cultivates inclusivity and confidence. Normalizing financial talks empowers individuals, enhancing their well-being. Elevating both financial literacy and emotional intelligence enhances overall financial health, nurturing a community adept at navigating financial journeys.Originality/valueThis study marks a notable contribution to behavioral finance and social stigma theory by examining their intersection with emotional intelligence. It uniquely introduces social stigma as a mediator and emotional intelligence as a moderator, unexplored in this context. This novelty underscores the research’s significance, offering practical insights into financial well-being.Peer reviewThe peer review history for this article is available at: https://publons.com/publon/10.1108/IJSE-08-2023-0626

Authors: Grave Frank , van de Wetering Rogier , Kusters Rob 
Published: April 2024

PurposeDespite the relevance of how enterprise architecture (EA) contributes to organizational performance in contemporary digital technology-driven strategic renewal, little is known about the position of EA artifacts. Therefore, this study aims to build an integrative model of EA artifact-enabled EA value supplemented with a research agenda to enhance our understanding further.Design/methodology/approachThis study leveraged grounded theory techniques and a systematic review approach to develop the integrative model and research agenda.FindingsWe inductively build a model of the position of EA artifacts in EA value creation. Additionally, we elaborate a research agenda that proposes (1) an investigation of the role of an EA practice in successful strategic change, (2) an examination of how to manage EA practice value generation and (3) longitudinal research to gain insight into the evolution of value creation by EA practices.Originality/valueThis study presents a model of EA artifact-enabled EA value, thereby contributing to our understanding of the mechanisms, inhibitors and success factors associated with EA value. Following our model, the proposed research agenda contains future research areas to help us better understand the mechanisms and interrelatedness of EA practices in highly dynamic environments.

Authors: Juusola Katariina , Venkitachalam Krishna , Kleber Daniel , Popat Archana 
Published: April 2024

PurposeThis study aims to explore the use of knowledge sharing (KS) in delivering open social innovation (OSI) solutions for sustainable development in the context of economically marginalized, rural societies in India.Design/methodology/approachThe study is guided by an exploratory, qualitative approach using an embedded case study design with four social enterprises. The study approaches the use of KS in three stages of OSI: (1) the stages of ideating and prototyping, (2) the initial stages of experimenting and business development and (3) the more current and future-oriented stages of organizations’ strategies for expanding market opportunities for maximizing impact.FindingsThe first stage used KS for collaborative efforts among diverse stakeholders to recognize the needs of marginalized people and ideate suitable ecological solutions. The social enterprises acted as orchestrators in this stage. The second stage involved a more dynamic role of KS in the refinement of social enterprises’ market offerings, generating additional innovations and value propositions, which diversified the scope of the social enterprises. This was facilitated by enterprises’ ability to be open systems, which change and evolve through OSI processes and KS. In the third stage, social enterprises’ use of KS was shifted towards future business development by expanding market opportunities with solutions that tackle complex societal and ecological problems, thereby contributing to sustainable development goals.Originality/valueThe present study contributes to studies on OSI, focusing on sustainable development and the role played by social enterprises operating in rural, economically marginalized areas, which have been an understudied phenomenon in the open innovation literature.
Effects of loving-kindness meditation on prosocial behavior: empirical and meta-analytic evidence
Authors: Valor Carmen , Martínez-de-Ibarreta Carlos , Carrero Isabel , Merino Amparo 
Published: April 2024

Purpose
Brief loving-kindness meditation (LKM) is introduced here as a valid social marketing intervention. LKM positively influences prosocial cognitions and affects. However, it remains unclear whether brief meditation interventions can influence prosocial behavior. This study aims to provide evidence of the effects of short LKM on prosocial behavior.

Design/methodology/approach
This study reports the results of three experiments examining the effects of brief LKM on donations to unknown others. The results are then integrated with the results of seven other studies testing the effects of brief LKM on prosocial behavior using a meta-analysis (n = 683).

Findings
LKM increased love more than the control group (focused breathing) in the three experiments; however, its effects on donations were mixed. The meta-analysis shows that LKM has a small-to-medium significant effect compared to active control groups (d = 0.303); moreover, age and type of prosocial measure used moderate the effects.

Originality/value
Results suggest that LKM can nurture prosocial emotions such as love and lead young individuals to donate. However, these emotions may not be sufficient to lead adult meditators to share their resources with unknown others. This study presents the first meta-analysis of brief LKM and provides insights into the use of meditation in social marketing programs.

Published: April 2024

Purpose
The objective of this study was to delineate and compare enteral nutrition (EN) practices among neonatal units across the Arabian Gulf countries.

Design/methodology/approach
A cross-sectional study was conducted by recruiting 255 clinicians working in neonatal units in the Arabian Gulf countries.

Findings
Out of 255 invited clinicians, 73 (29%) participated in the survey. Neonatal units used varied EN strategies, where feeding practices exhibited variability. The majority (74%) of units had a local standard feeding protocol, while 18% followed international protocols, and 8% did not adhere to a specific protocol. When maternal milk was not used, the main alternatives were preterm formula (67%) and predigested formula (14%). The age at which the first EN was commenced and the reported advancement rate showed significant variations among different units (p < 0.001). The initiation of fortification was primarily driven by reaching a specific enteral volume (commonly reported as 100 mL/kg/day) and addressing poor postnatal growth. Fortification practices did not differ significantly among professions, except for the initial fortification strength, where none of the dietitians and only 8.3% of neonatologists preferred full strength, compared to 28.6% and 21.4% of medical residents and nurses, respectively (p = 0.033).

Originality/value
This study marks the first exploration of EN practices in neonatal units, examining their local and cross-country variations. It provides valuable insights to guide local trials and foster global collaboration among neonatal units to establish a unified knowledge base, standardized practices and promote research and innovation, ultimately contributing to optimal feeding practices for very preterm infants.
Salvianic acid A sodium facilitates cardiac microvascular endothelial cell proliferation by enhancing the hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1 alpha/vascular endothelial growth factor signalling pathway post‐myocardial infarction

Published: April 2024

AbstractCardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMECs) are important cells surrounding the cardiomyocytes in the heart that maintain microenvironment homeostasis. Salvianic acid A sodium (SAAS) has been reported to prevent myocardial infarction (MI) injury. However, the role of SAAS on CMEC proliferation remains unclear. CEMCs exposed to oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD) were used to explore the angiogenic abilities of SAAS. In vivo, C57BL/6 mice were divided into three groups: sham, MI and SAAS + MI groups. Compared to OGD group, SAAS led to a reduction in the apoptotic rate and an increase of the proliferation in vitro. Additionally, SAAS increased the protein levels of Bcl2, HIF‐1α and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) with the reduction of Bax. In terms of the specific mechanisms, SAAS might inhibit HIF‐1α ubiquitination and enhance the HIF‐1α/VEGF signalling pathway to increase CMEC proliferation. Furthermore, SAAS increased the density of vessels, inhibited myocardial fibrosis and improved cardiac dysfunction in vivo. The present study has revealed that SAAS could potentially be used as an active substance to facilitate CMEC proliferation post‐MI.
Validation of the lead‐in method in a practical shooting scenario
Authors: Keldson Maddie , Liscio Eugene 
Published: April 2024

AbstractThe ability to determine bullet trajectories after a shooting incident can allow investigators to reconstruct the locations of individuals and the sequence of events that took place. By using trajectory rods, investigators can be provided with an immediate visual estimate as to what the path of the projectile may have been. In certain instances, the use of the probing method with trajectory rods is not appropriate due to their being a single, thin target material, or no secondary bullet impact site. In these cases, other methods such as the lead‐in or the ellipse method may be useful. Overall, the lead‐in method has not been well studied in the application to practical scenarios, such as those including bullet impacts on vehicle metal surfaces. This study has explored the accuracy of the lead‐in method when a bullet impacts a typical vehicle metal surface using three firearm calibers, three blind participants, and two non‐blind participants. The results of this study have shown that each caliber has its own characteristic error curve. In general, it was found that the lower the impact angle, the less errors were made by the participants. As the impact angle increases, the measurement errors increased, due to the smaller lead‐in area present. The errors were found to have a wide range, with some being as low as 1° and some being as high as 13.9°. Further, it was found there was no significant effect on the errors of blind versus non‐blind participants.
Percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation for the overactive bladder: A single‐arm trial
Authors: Kyaw Hnin Yee , Krause Hannah G. , Goh Judith T.W. 
Published: April 2024

AimsWe hypothesise that PTNS is a safe and effective treatment for OAB. Overactive bladder (OAB) is estimated to affect 11.8% of women worldwide, causing diminished quality of life. Lifestyle modifications, muscarinic receptor antagonist and beta‐adrenoreceptor agonist remain the mainstay of treatment but are limited by their efficacy and adverse effects. Access to third‐line therapies of intravesical botulinum toxin type A or sacral neuromodulation is limited by their invasive nature. Percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) has emerged as a non‐invasive treatment option for OAB.MethodsThis study was a single‐arm trial of women requesting third‐line treatment for OAB. The primary treatment outcome was patient‐reported visual analogue score (VAS) improvement of at least 50%. Secondary outcome measures were Urinary Distress Inventory Short Form (UDI‐6) score and two‐day bladder diary. Patients also provided feedback on adverse effects encountered.ResultsIn the 84 women recruited, initial treatment protocol showed a success rate of 77.2% among those who completed treatment based on VAS, with a statistically significant improvement in mean UDI‐6 score of 20.13 (P < 0.01, standard deviation: 12.52). Continued success following tapering protocol of 60.8% and a mean maintenance protocol of 14.2 months was achieved. No adverse effects were reported.ConclusionThe results from this study are in concordance with previously published literature on the effectiveness and safety of PTNS as a treatment modality for OAB. Further randomised controlled trials to evaluate the optimal treatment protocol are warranted to establish a standardised regime.

Published: April 2024

BackgroundThere is anecdotal evidence of Fetal Pillow® use, but no formal local information on clinician practices and perspectives.AimsTo assess obstetrician use of the Fetal Pillow®, knowledge of relevant research, and interest in a proposed randomised controlled trial in Aotearoa New Zealand.Materials and MethodsAnonymous cross‐sectional survey of practising obstetricians and obstetric trainees in Aotearoa New Zealand distributed by the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists.ResultsOf 136 respondents (69% specialists and 31% trainees), 130 had heard of the Fetal Pillow® device, and 108 had used it at least once (43% more than ten times). The device was available in 17/21 units represented. The 108 users of the device reported this was most commonly on collegial advice (63%) or after personal experience of a difficult delivery (33%) and most (80%) believed it reduced maternal morbidity. Only around one‐third of the 130 respondents who had heard of the device agreed there was adequate research demonstrating its efficacy for maternal (36%) and neonatal (30%) morbidity. The majority reported they would change practice in response to a randomised trial, although they were more likely to start use (81% of current non‐users) than stop (53% of users). Most (70%) respondents agreed they would encourage patients to participate in a randomised trial.ConclusionsThe Fetal Pillow® is available in most maternity units in Aotearoa New Zealand. The majority of obstetric clinicians believe it reduces maternal morbidity, while acknowledging the lack of scientific evidence. Most would support a randomised trial.
Real‐Time Underwater Spectral Rendering
Authors: Monzon Nestor , Gutierrez Diego , Akkaynak Derya , Muñoz Adolfo 
Published: April 2024

AbstractThe light field in an underwater environment is characterized by complex multiple scattering interactions and wavelength‐dependent attenuation, requiring significant computational resources for the simulation of underwater scenes. We present a novel approach that makes it possible to simulate multi‐spectral underwater scenes, in a physically‐based manner, in real time. Our key observation is the following: In the vertical direction, the steady decay in irradiance as a function of depth is characterized by the diffuse downwelling attenuation coefficient, which oceanographers routinely measure for different types of waters. We rely on a database of such real‐world measurements to obtain an analytical approximation to the Radiative Transfer Equation, allowing for real‐time spectral rendering with results comparable to Monte Carlo ground‐truth references, in a fraction of the time. We show results simulating underwater appearance for the different optical water types, including volumetric shadows and dynamic, spatially varying lighting near the water surface.
High response diversity and conspecific density‐dependence, not species interactions, drive dynamics of coral reef fish communities
Authors: Ruiz‐Moreno Alfonso , Emslie Michael J. , Connolly Sean R. 
Published: April 2024

AbstractSpecies‐to‐species and species‐to‐environment interactions are key drivers of community dynamics. Disentangling these drivers in species‐rich assemblages is challenging due to the high number of potentially interacting species (the ‘curse of dimensionality’). We develop a process‐based model that quantifies how intraspecific and interspecific interactions, and species’ covarying responses to environmental fluctuations, jointly drive community dynamics. We fit the model to reef fish abundance time series from 41 reefs of Australia's Great Barrier Reef. We found that fluctuating relative abundances are driven by species’ heterogenous responses to environmental fluctuations, whereas interspecific interactions are negligible. Species differences in long‐term average abundances are driven by interspecific variation in the magnitudes of both conspecific density‐dependence and density‐independent growth rates. This study introduces a novel approach to overcoming the curse of dimensionality, which reveals highly individualistic dynamics in coral reef fish communities that imply a high level of niche structure.

Published: April 2024

AbstractBackground and purposeSwallowing is a complex task, moderated by a sophisticated bilateral network including multiple supratentorial regions, the brainstem and the cerebellum. To date, conflicting data exist about whether focal lesions to the cerebellum are associated with dysphagia. Therefore, the aim of the study was to evaluate dysphagia prevalence, recovery and dysphagia pattern in patients with ischaemic cerebellar stroke.MethodsA retrospective analysis of patients consecutively admitted to an academic stroke centre with ischaemic stroke found only in the cerebellum was performed. The presence of dysphagia was the primary end‐point and was assessed by a speech‐language pathologist, according to defined criteria. Dysphagia pattern was evaluated by analysing the videos of the flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing. Brain imaging was used to identify lesion size and location associated with dysphagia.ResultsBetween January 2016 and December 2021, 102 patients (35.3% female) with a mean age of 52.8 ± 17.3 years were included. Thirteen (12.7%) patients presented with dysphagia. The most frequently observed flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing phenotype was premature spillage (n = 7; 58.3%), whilst significant residues or aspiration did not occur. One patient died (7.7%); the other patients showed improvement of dysphagia and one patient (7.7%) was discharged with dietary restrictions.ConclusionsAlthough the involvement of the cerebellum in deglutition has become increasingly evident, isolated lesions to the cerebellum are less likely to cause clinically relevant and persisting dysphagia compared to other brain regions. The observed dysphagia pattern shows a lack of coordination and control, resulting in premature spillage or fragmented bolus transfer in some patients.
