Rate of Postpartum Readmission for Hypertension After Prescribing Nifedipine Upon Hospital Discharge Compared With Labetalol
Authors: Wang Courtney Y. , Bastian Ingmar N. , Turrentine Mark A. 
Published: January 2025

OBJECTIVE:
To systematically review the literature to evaluate the rate of postpartum readmission for hypertension in individuals with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy discharged on nifedipine compared with those discharged on labetalol.

DATA SOURCES:
We explored EMBASE, MEDLINE, Web of Science, CINAHL, ClinicalTrials.gov, and CENTRAL for studies that compared the rate of postpartum readmission for hypertension in individuals with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy who were treated with nifedipine, compared with labetalol.

METHODS OF STUDY SELECTION:
Two reviewers separately identified studies, obtained data, and gauged study quality. The rate of postpartum readmission for hypertension was compared, and 95% CIs were estimated.

TABULATION, INTEGRATION, AND RESULTS:
Three retrospective cohort studies and two randomized controlled trials were identified, with 30,950 individuals with postpartum hypertension that required treatment with nifedipine, compared with labetalol. In these studies, 39.6% (12,212/30,950) were treated with nifedipine and 60.5% (18,738/30,950) were treated with labetalol. Studies evaluated individuals with readmission for postpartum hypertension who delivered from January 2006 to December 2022. Four studies were conducted in the United States, and one was conducted in Pakistan. The weighted portion in individuals with readmission for postpartum hypertension was 2.4% (95% CI, 1.5–3.5%) in the nifedipine group, compared with 6.5% (95% CI, 4.1–9.3%) in the labetalol group. Based on these five comparative studies, postpartum readmission for hypertension occurred less in individuals treated with nifedipine than in individuals treated with labetalol.

CONCLUSION:
Treatment with nifedipine in individuals with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy is associated with lower rates of postpartum readmission for hypertension, compared with labetalol.

Balancing uniqueness and patronage: the dual impact of brand name complexity on consumer behavior
Authors: Chen Chen , Luo Jia , Hu Jiajing 
Published: January 2025

PurposeMarketers of new brands increasingly utilize complex names to draw consumers’ attention. Although complexity can make a brand stand out, whether it encourages or discourages consumers’ patronage intention remains unclear. To address this issue, the research explores the double-edged sword of brand name complexity on consumers’ patronage intention, mediated by uniqueness perception and psychological distance. It also examines the moderating effect of brand self-introduction.Design/methodology/approachThree between-subjects experimental studies were conducted across different scenarios and brands. In Study 1 (N = 151), a single-factor (simple name vs complex name) between-subject design examined the mediating effect of uniqueness perception between brand name complexity and consumers’ patronage intention. Study 2 (N = 112) replicated this design to test the mediating effect of psychological distance. Study 3 (N = 231) conducted a 2 (simple vs complex name) × 2 (no introduction vs self-introduction) between-subject design to test the moderating effect.FindingsThe results indicate that a complex brand name (vs simple) can make the brand appear more unique, thereby increasing patronage intention. However, complexity also creates a sense of psychological distance, which can reduce patronage intention. Further, our results reveal that brand self-introduction can attenuate the association between brand name complexity and psychological distance.Originality/valueThis research extends brand name strategy literature by addressing the dual impact of brand name complexity on patronage intention, particularly emphasizing the impact of brand name complexity on psychological distance for a new brand. Additionally, the findings offer practical insights for marketers, highlighting that brand self-introduction is a key strategy to reduce psychological distance. This underscores the importance of balancing complexity with clear and effective communication.
How and when does workaholism predict lower work performance and life satisfaction?
Authors: Gillet Nicolas , Grangeiro Rebeca , Noble Victor , Souesme Guillaume , Aubouin-Bonnaventure Julia 
Published: January 2025

Purpose
This study aims to examine the indirect effects of workaholism on life satisfaction (Samples 1 and 2) and work performance (Sample 2) as mediated by presenteeism. This study also examined whether these indirect effects differed at various levels of work−home segmentation.

Design/methodology/approach
The authors collected data from two samples of employees with jobs in administration (Sample 1) and engineering (Sample 2).

Findings
The results showed that workaholism was associated with higher levels of presenteeism, whereas work−home segmentation was negatively related to presenteeism. Presenteeism was also negatively related to life satisfaction (Samples 1 and 2) and work performance (Sample 2). Furthermore, the positive effects of workaholism on presenteeism were stronger at low levels of work−home segmentation. Finally, the indirect effects of workaholism on life satisfaction (Samples 1 and 2) and work performance (Sample 1) were significantly mediated by presenteeism at low levels of work−home segmentation, but not at high levels of work−home segmentation.

Originality/value
This research demonstrates that work−home segmentation buffers the detrimental effects of workaholism.

Authors: Aljabali Hebah Mohammad , Haddad Rami H. , Gharaibeh Laith H. 
Published: January 2025

PurposeThe durability of concrete beams (150 × 250 × 1,600 mm3) strengthened using creative profiles with near-surface mounted (NSM) CFRP ropes under severe sulfate cyclic conditions was experimentally investigated.Design/methodology/approachParabolic and straight profiles of NSM-CFRP ropes were implemented without and with internal vertical and lateral dowelings using the CFRP ropes. Another group of concrete beams was repaired using similar schemes after being exposed to sulfate damage. The mechanical response of virgin (control), and sulfate damaged beams as well as of those retrofitted before and after exposure to sulfates, was evaluated under a four-point loading setup.FindingsMechanical evaluation of concrete indicated an increase in concrete’s brittleness and a decrease in its compressive strength by 21%. The beams strengthened using proposed configurations before being exposed to severe sulfate attack showed reductions in load capacity, displacement ductility and toughness of up to 24, 22 and 53%, respectively, yet an increase in stiffness of up to 16% compared to counterpart virgin-strengthened beams. The implantation of vertical and lateral dowels helped maintain the load capacity and improve the stiffness and displacement ductility for former beams by as much as 35 and 16%, respectively. In contrast, beams exposed to the same stage of sulfate treatment and then repaired with a parabolic profile (with and without vertical dowels) attained or surpassed the mechanical performance of relevantly strengthened and then sulfate-treated ones. The adopted retrofitting configurations did not alter the ductile flexural failure mode observed for virgin and sulfate-damaged beams.Research limitations/implicationsConcrete beams were strengthened and then subjected to sulfate attack in the absence of actual loading, which is not the case in the field.Practical implicationsEncouraging the use of the proposed repair configuration with CFRP ropes for concrete elements subjected to severe sulfate attack.Social implicationsThe repair proposed may help maintain the integrity of marine structures for a long time to save on municipal spending on repair issues.Originality/valueLimited work (if none) on the evaluation of repair durability of concrete flexural elements under sulfate severe condition was reported.
Robotic task success evaluation under multi-modal non-parametric object pose uncertainty
Authors: Naik Lakshadeep , Iversen Thorbjørn Mosekjær , Kramberger Aljaz , Krüger Norbert 
Published: January 2025

Purpose
Accurate 6D object pose estimation is essential for various robotic tasks. Uncertain pose estimates can lead to task failures; however, a certain degree of error in the pose estimates is often acceptable. This paper aims to enable the robots to make informed decisions by quantifying errors in the object pose estimate and acceptable errors for task success.

Design/methodology/approach
In this paper, the authors introduce a framework for evaluating robotic task success under object pose uncertainty, representing both the estimated error space of the object pose and the acceptable error space for task success using multi-modal non-parametric probability distributions. The proposed framework pre-computes the acceptable error space for task success using dynamic simulations and subsequently integrates the pre-computed acceptable error space over the estimated error space of the object pose to predict the likelihood of the task succes.

Findings
The authors evaluated the proposed framework on two mobile manipulation tasks. Their results show that by representing the estimated and the acceptable error space using multi-modal non-parametric distributions, the authors achieve higher task success rates and fewer failures.

Research limitations/implications
Their proposed framework is generic and can be applied to a wide range of robotic tasks requiring object pose estimation. Hence, given the recent advancements in object pose uncertainty estimation and dynamic simulations, the proposed framework, in conjunction with these advancements, has the potential to enable robots to make reliable and informed decisions under pose uncertainty.

Originality/value
Unlike related works that model both acceptable error space and estimated error space using parametric uni-modal distributions, the authors model them as multi-modal distributions which is often the case in the real world.

This study aims to address this gap by providing an overview of the Italian fashion sector and its financial performance related to the concept of resilience.Design/methodology/approachThe model is based on a segmentation analysis of 5,129 firms in the Italian fashion sector, utilizing financial variables such as return on equity and return on sales. Moreover, it employs significance tests with the aid of Levene’s test and ANOVA.FindingsIt was discovered that the debt ratio, operating cash flow and aggregate growth ratio (AGR) over a five-year period exhibit significant differences across clusters. Additionally, it was determined that the debt ratio and operating cash flow are key financial indicators of firm resilience. These data have confirmed the resilience of the Italian fashion sector.Originality/valueThis study is among the first to focus on the financial performance of the Italian fashion sector, its resilience and post-pandemic recovery, as well as employing a reverse engineering system to identify the most suitable financial indicators for defining a sector’s resilience.
Anticipating customer substitution: a data-driven, distance-based approach for out-of-stock product configurations
Authors: Fabian Maik , Fischer Kathrin , Rüpke John Micha 
Published: January 2025

Purpose
When facing capacity bottlenecks, manufacturers of configurable, multi-variant products may adjust the product mix to uphold the scheduled output. However, maintaining market attractiveness by choosing the right product configurations as substitutes is a non-trivial task as it involves anticipating the substitution behaviour of customers. Substitution behaviour models currently used in quantitative production planning models for configurable products are either based on domain knowledge of experts, which makes them bias-prone, or they require extensive market research. The purpose of this study is to present a data-driven approach.

Design/methodology/approach
Based on data science concepts, distance measures are applied to derive distances between different product configurations from historical order data. Different design options for such a distance measure are discussed regarding configurable products and tested with automotive industry data. Furthermore, the study shows ways to validate the distance results.

Findings
The experiments show that the presented distance measure represents the expected customer substitution behaviour quite well. A context-sensitive distance measure including rank information of ordinal product features is most suitable for the automotive data sets.

Originality/value
This study presents a new approach to model the substitution behaviour of customers. The attractiveness of a potential substitute is represented by a distance from the customer’s first-choice configuration. The presented distance measure provides an inexpensive tool using existing data instead of expensive market research. Thus, it supports the integration of substitution into quantitative production planning models that deal with a large variety of configurable products.

The impact of knowledge sharing on well-being at work − Is organizational learning capability a mediating link?
Authors: Trivedi Karishma , Singh Shailendra 
Published: January 2025

Purpose
Well-being at work is a prime concern for learning organizations where work is knowledge-intensive and the need for updated learning exerts high work pressure. This study aims to examine the mediating influence of organizational learning capability in facilitating routine and novel knowledge sharing to foster employees’ well-being at work in Indian information technology (IT) organizations. This research explores whether the sharing of routine knowledge and novel knowledge contributes to employees’ well-being at work by enhancing organizational learning capability.

Design/methodology/approach
Using a quantitative approach, the authors collected data from 209 employees in IT organizations in India via a questionnaire survey. After verifying the reliability and validity of the data, the authors analysed the data using co-variance-based structural equation modelling using AMOS 26.

Findings
The results show that the indirect effect of routine and novel knowledge sharing on well-being at work was influenced by the mediating role of organizational learning capability. Routine knowledge sharing has a significant positive impact on organizational learning capability and well-being at work. While novel knowledge sharing positively predicted organizational learning capability, it did not have a direct impact on well-being at work. Moreover, organizational learning capability has a direct positive effect on employees’ well-being at work.

Research limitations/implications
The cross-sectional design of the study makes the cause-and-effect relationship difficult to conclude. Moreover, the use of self-report measures poses methodological biases. Thus, longitudinal studies with objective measurements are recommended. Future studies can examine the role of individual characteristics such as learning orientation and personality in the studied framework.

Practical implications
Employee well-being and organizational learning can be enhanced through knowledge sharing practices, promoted by human resource policies and leaders. This promotes on-the-job learning, reducing working hours for training and learning purposes. By fostering a culture of openness, mutual trust and networking, organizations can enhance their employees’ work−life balance and overall performance.

Originality/value
This paper addresses a paucity in the literature concerning the outcomes of knowledge sharing and factors that lead to well-being at work. Drawing on the learning-based well-being perspective and job-demand resource theory, this research pioneers the examination of the mediating effect of organizational learning capability in the link between routine and novel knowledge sharing and employees’ well-being in IT learning organizations in India. Findings of this study may help managers of IT firms boost organizational learning and improve knowledge workers’ well-being, thus helping to maximize their performance and enhance employee retention and welfare.
Plant diversity loss has limited effects on below‐ground biomass and traits but alters community short‐term root production in a species‐rich grassland

Abstract

Many biodiversity–ecosystem functioning (BEF) experiments have shown enhanced productivity with biodiversity, often explained by niche differentiation and complementarity effects. Yet, most of these results are based on artificial plant assemblages, with a major focus on above‐ground productivity. Consequently, our comprehension of the BEF relationship in natural ecosystem and for below‐ground functions remains largely unknown.

In this study, we simulated a long‐term non‐random species loss in a naturally diverse temperate meadow. We created a richness gradient spanning from 1 to more than 20 species per plot, removing the rare and sub‐ordinate species from the vegetation. After 3 and 6 years of experimental manipulation, soil cores were collected to investigate the effects of species removal on below‐ground biomass, vertical distribution of roots and root traits. We also used ingrowth cores to quantify the short‐term root production of plant communities. We investigated the consistency of below‐ and above‐ground responses to species removal.

Consistent with above‐ground responses, species removal had little effect on root biomass and community root traits, except for a decrease in biomass in the uppermost soil layer (0–5 cm) found only after 6 years. Similarly, the vertical distribution of root biomass and traits was largely unaffected by diversity loss, suggesting little evidence for vertical niche differentiation. Nevertheless, species loss decreased the root production in spring (3 months), albeit this lower short‐term root production was diluted after a year, when monocultures of dominants almost matched the annual root production of controls.

Synthesis. Our results from a non‐random species removal experiment revealed minimal impact of a realistic diversity loss on root biomass and traits, but a decrease in short‐term fine root production. These results challenge traditional BEF theory and the niche differentiation hypothesis, suggesting that dominant species primarily determine below‐ground biomass structure and characteristics. High diversity may only temporarily increase short‐term root production.
Fairness Evaluations of Higher Education Graduates’ Earnings: The Role of Female Preference for Equality and Self‐Interest
Authors: Zamberlan Anna , Galos Diana Roxana , Strauß Susanne , Hinz Thomas 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTEducational and occupational horizontal segregation contribute significantly to economic inequalities, especially in contexts with a strong correspondence between fields of study and occupational outputs, such as in Germany. However, the extent to which individuals perceive disparities in economic returns across different fields of study as fair and the factors influencing these fairness evaluations remain largely unexplored. This study aims to understand fairness evaluations by assessing two theoretical explanations and their interrelation: (1) female preference for equality, where women generally favour smaller earnings disparities, and (2) biases leading to higher reward expectations for individuals in the same field of study as the evaluator. Our empirical research draws on a novel survey experiment from the German Student Survey (2021), in which higher education students evaluated the fairness of realistic earnings for graduates from various fields of study. These earnings relate to the entry phase of an individual's career, reflecting differences in economic returns exclusively tied to fields of study, independent of occupational or life trajectories. Our findings support the female preference for equality and self‐interest theoretical perspectives, revealing that women and respondents in fields associated with lower‐earning jobs tend to perceive greater unfairness. We further find evidence of an interaction between the two mechanisms, with women being particularly likely to perceive greater unfairness when it aligns with their self‐interest.
