Ubiquitin Ligase MARCH5 Regulates the Formation of Mitochondria Derived Pre-peroxisomes
Authors: Zheng Jun , Cao Zhihe , Wang Jinhui , Guo Yusong , Zhuang Min 
Published: October 2023

ABSTRACTPeroxisome biogenesis involves two pathways: growth and division from pre-existing mature peroxisomes andde novobiogenesis from the endoplasmic reticulum, with a contribution from mitochondria, particularly in peroxisome deficient cells. However, the key components that regulate peroxisomede novobiogenesis are largely unknown. Dual organelle localized ubiquitin ligase MARCH5 functions on peroxisomes to regulate pexophagy. Here, we show that mitochondria localized MARCH5 is essential for the formation of vesicles in thede novobiogenesis of peroxisomes from mitochondria. Loss of MARCH5 specifically impedes the budding of PEX3-containing vesicles from mitochondria, thereby blocking the formation of pre-peroxisomes. Overall, our study highlights a novel function of MARCH5 for mitochondria derived pre-peroxisomes, emphasizing MARCH5 as one key regulator to maintain peroxisome homeostasis.

A framework for evaluating campus facility management performance in light of project critical success factors using a multidimensional fuzzy logic approach
Authors: Gunduz Murat , Naji Khalid , Maki Omar 
Published: October 2023

PurposeThis paper aims to present the development of a holistic campus facility management (CFM) performance assessment framework that incorporates a fuzzy logic approach and integrates a comprehensive set of key factors for successful management of campus facilities. The devised framework aims to cater to the needs of campus facilities management firms and departments for the purpose of gauging and assessing their performance across different management domains. Through this approach, facility management organizations can detect potential areas of enhancement and adopt preemptive steps to evade issues, foster progress and ensure success.Design/methodology/approachAfter a comprehensive analysis of the literature, conducting in-depth interviews with industry experts and employing the Delphi technique in two rounds, a total of 45 indicators critical to CFM success were identified and subsequently sorted into seven distinct groups. Through an online questionnaire, 402 subject-matter experts proficiently assessed the significance of the critical success indicators and their groups. A fuzzy logic framework was developed to evaluate and quantify a firm's compliance with the critical success indicators and groups of indicators. The framework was subsequently weighted using computations of the relative importance index (RII) based on the responses received from the questionnaire participants. The initial section of the framework involved a comprehensive analysis of the firm's performance vis-à-vis the indicators, while the latter part sought to evaluate the impact of the indicators groups on the overall firm's performance.FindingsThe utilization of fuzzy logic has uncovered the significant effects each effective CFM key indicator on indicators groups, as well as the distinct effects of each CFM indicators group on the overall performance of CFM. The results reveal that financial management, communications management, sustainability and environment management and workforce management are the most impactful indicators groups on the CFM performance. This suggests that it is imperative for management to allocate increased attention to these specific areas.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the advancement of current knowledge by revealing vital indicators of effective CFM and utilizing them to construct a thorough fuzzy logic framework that can assist in evaluating the effectiveness of CFM firms worldwide. This has the potential to provide crucial assistance to facility management organizations, facility managers and policymakers in their quest for informed decision-making.

Authors: Nguyen Quang Khai 
Published: October 2023

PurposeThis study aims to investigate the effect of the presence of women in top executive positions on financial reporting quality (FRQ) and the role of external audit in enhancing the role of women in top executive positions.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses a sample of 644 Vietnamese-listed firms from 2010 to 2020 and applies fixed-effect and dynamic system generalized method of moments techniques for empirical models to test the related hypotheses.FindingsFirst, this study found a U-shaped relationship between women on the board and FRQ as well as women on the audit committee and FRQ. Second, female CEOs are positively associated with FRQ in small firms but there is no evidence of this in large firms. Third, a female chief accountant can enhance FRQ. Finally, external audit quality can reduce the negative effect of women on the board and the audit committee on FRQ and increase the positive impact of female chief accountants on FRQ.Practical implicationsThe results support all risk-averse, ethical sensitivity and glass ceiling hypotheses in different contexts. This study provides important implications for firms to enhance FRQ by nominating women in a majority of top executive positions and simultaneously using high-quality external audit services.Originality/valueThe impact of women in top executive positions on controlling FRQ in different contexts is an original contribution to gender in management literature.
Do cosmopolitans care about the world? The effect of cosmopolitanism on the consumption of sustainable apparel
Authors: Gil Maria S. Soledad , Su Jin , Watchravesringkan Kittichai , Taras Vasyl 
Published: October 2023

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to empirically examine the impact of cosmopolitan consumer orientation (CCO) on sustainable apparel consumer behavior.Design/methodology/approachA total of 469 US responses collected using MTurk were retained for the analysis after screening for unengaged responses. Structural equation modeling was used to confirm the factor structure of the measurement model and to analyze the structural model. A two-step cluster analysis using log-likelihood distance measure and Akaike's Information Criterion was conducted to explore consumer profiles and past behavior.FindingsBased on the model results, CCO positively impacts apparel sustainability knowledge, attitude toward purchasing sustainable apparel, perceived norm and sustainable apparel purchase intention. Attitude and perceived norm also impact sustainable purchase intention. The two-step cluster analysis, based mainly on sustainable past behavior, reveals that the group of sustainability engaged consumers knows more about apparel sustainability, has a stronger intention to purchase sustainable apparel, is more cosmopolitan and shows a higher tendency to follow social norms. Consumers in this group also tend to live in metropolitan areas and are slightly younger than unengaged consumers.Originality/valueThis study expands CCO research linking two major trends in society and industry: cosmopolitanism and sustainable apparel consumer behavior. The study reveals that CCO uplifts consumers' sustainable behavior and provides evidence in support of CCO as a driver of sustainable consumer behavior. Moreover, results imply a positive future outlook for the diffusion of sustainable apparel, as well as a much-needed mainstream consumer adhesion to more sustainable lifestyles. Given the repercussions of the findings, this research has numerous theoretical as well practical implications.
Driving customer engagement and citizenship behaviour in omnichannel retailing: evidence from the fashion sector
Authors: Salem Suha Fouad , Alanadoly Alshaimaa Bahgat 
Published: October 2023

Purpose
This study, grounded in the SOR theory, aims to enrich the understanding of customer citizenship behaviour in omnichannel fashion retail by examining how different customer experiences enhance customer engagement and how that engagement leads to customer citizenship behaviour. The influence of return policies on the relationship between customer engagement and customer citizenship behaviour was also examined.

Design/methodology/approach
Partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) is used to examine the framework of the proposed study with data collected through a survey (n = 251) to examine the opinions of the respondents about the variables mentioned. The authors also assessed the proposed framework using predictive power assessment using PLS predict.

Findings
The study results reveal that customers’ experiences of integration and flexibility in omnichannel retail are positively associated with their engagement. However, customer experiences of connectivity, consistency and personalization do not appear to affect customer engagement significantly in omnichannel retail. The return policy positively moderates the relationship between customer engagement and customer citizenship behaviour in the omnichannel fashion retail context. Predictive power assessment shows that the proposed model has high prediction accuracy.

Originality/value
This study contributes to the marketing literature by investigating different dimensions of consumer experience collectively and its impact on customer engagement and citizenship behaviour. Furthermore, the study contributes to omnichannel retail in fashion industry by testing the return policy as a moderator variable on the relationship between customer engagement and citizenship behaviour.

Abstract1.	Root respiration is essential for nutrient acquisition. The respiration rate of absorptive roots theoretically relates to the economics of carbon‐nutrient exchange, but its empirical role remains largely unexplored in the trait space defining nutrient uptake strategies.2.	Here, we measured the respiration rates of the distal, non‐woody, absorptive roots of 252 woody and herbaceous species from subtropical and temperate climate zones, including both arbuscular mycorrhizal and ectomycorrhizal fungal hosts.3.	We found a consistent and positive correlation between root respiration rate and specific root length (root length per dry weight), irrespective of growth form, mycorrhizal type and climate zone. Root respiration rate was also positively, but less strongly and less frequently correlated with root nitrogen concentration. Root morphology strongly explained the fast‐slow gradient of root respiration in the root economics space.4.	By quantifying the ratio of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal DNA copy number and root tissue DNA copy number using qPCR, we found that the morphology‐driven gradient did not explain the full variation in fungal collaboration; thick roots were consistently well colonised, but medium and thin roots displayed a wide range of colonisation intensity.5.	Synthesis: These results advance our understanding of the fundamental trait relationships that underpin the root economics space. Our study also provides a physiological linkage to the frequently measured root morphological traits and relates the root economics space to root‐derived carbon‐nutrient cycling processes.
Harnessing the roles of renewable energy, high tech industries, and financial globalization for environmental sustainability: Evidence from newly industrialized economies
Authors: Ghosh Sudeshna , Adebayo Tomiwa Sunday , Abbas Shujaat , Doğan Buhari , Sarkodie Samuel Asumadu 
Published: October 2023

AbstractScholars and policy makers are paying close attention to reduce climate problems for sustainable growth. The failure to enhance ecological integrity could increase greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, this study examines the effect of economic complexity, high‐tech industries, renewables, natural resource abundance, and financial globalization on CO2 and ecological footprint for 10 selected newly industrializing countries for the period 1990 to 2018. We use Common Correlated Error Mean Group, Augmented Mean Group, panel causality, and Westerlund Error Correction Model of cointegration techniques that account for short‐run, and long‐run relationships across cross‐sectionally dependent and heterogeneous countries. The findings reveal long‐run interrelationships across the series of underlying observations. The long‐run empirical results show the development of high‐tech industries has statistically significant environmental welfare‐enhancing impact, whereas renewables and natural resource exploitation mitigate environmental challenges. However, economic complexity and financial globalization increase emissions and ecological footprint (ECF). The results confirm unidirectional causality from renewable energy to CO2 and ECF and further from natural resources to CO2 and ECF. Additionally, there exists bidirectional causality between financial globalization and ECF. Based on these findings, we suggest that these countries should revise their energy policies in order to allocate more funds for the renewable energy technologies so that environmental problems can be mitigated. Along with renewable energy, further investments should be made in high‐tech sector but economic complexity and financial globalization should be carefully handled.

Published: October 2023

AbstractBackground/ObjectiveThis study aimed to compare the effect of the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Score (SLE‐DAS) with the SLE Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI‐2K) remission state on damage accrual.MethodsThis study classified SLE patients from the Lupus Clinic of the Royal Thai Army (LUCRA) cohort based on the SLE‐DAS index, or Boolean‐based, and SLEDAI‐2K (Doria) remission state. Regression analysis models were constructed to identify predictors of the Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/American College of Rheumatology Damage Index (SDI) during follow‐up.ResultsThere were 197 patients identified; 97 patients met at least one definition of remission state, and 100 patients were in the non‐remission group at enrollment. Of 97 patients, 97 achieved the SLE‐DAS index‐based definition, 74 achieved the SLE‐DAS Boolean‐based definition, and 55 achieved the Doria definition. The mean ± SD of follow‐up was 4.77 ± 0.6 years. The changes in SDI over time were non‐significantly lower in patients who met any definition of remission compared with those who did not. Multivariate analysis revealed that predictive factors for increased SDI were age and baseline SDI ≥ 1. SLE‐DAS index, Boolean, and Doria‐based definitions of remission at enrollment had no significant risk reduction on SDI compared with the non‐remission group (HR 0.7, 95% CI 0.37–1.32, p = .27; HR 0.73, 95% CI 0.37–1.44, p = .37; HR 0.8, 95% CI 0.39–1.65, p = .55, respectively).ConclusionsPatients with SLE who achieved remission status according to the SLE‐DAS index or SLEDAI‐2K definitions did not show any significant difference in damage accrual compared to those who were not in remission.
PiCAM: A Raspberry Pi‐based open‐source, low‐power camera system for monitoring plant phenology in Arctic environments
Authors: Yang Dedi , McMahon Andrew , Hantson Wouter , Anderson Jeremiah , Serbin Shawn P. 
Published: October 2023

Abstract

Time‐lapse cameras have been widely used as a tool to monitor the timing of seasonal vegetation growth. These simple, relatively inexpensive systems can provide high‐frequency observations of leaf development and demography which are critical data sets needed to characterize plant phenology from species to landscapes. This is important for understanding how plants are responding to global changes, as well as for validating satellite‐derived phenology products.

However, in remote regions including the high‐latitude Arctic, deploying time‐lapse cameras could be challenging. The remoteness and lack of widespread power and telecommunications infrastructure limit options for the installation, maintenance and retrieval of data and equipment, and make it difficult for cameras to survive in extreme weather (e.g. long cold winters). To improve our understanding of Arctic phenology, new technologies are required to address these challenges.

Here, we present a novel, low‐power, compact, lightweight time‐lapse camera system, called power‐interval camera automation module (PiCAM). The PiCAM was designed with explicit consideration to simplify deployment (i.e. without a need for external power supplies) of camera systems and to address the challenges of camera survival in harsh Arctic environments. In this paper, we describe the design, setup and technical details of the PiCAM and provide a roadmap for how to build and operate these systems. As proof of concept, we deployed 26 PiCAMs at three low‐Arctic tundra sites on the Seward Peninsula, Alaska in early August 2021 for characterizing Arctic plant phenology.

Of the 26 PiCAMs, 70% remained active at the point of our revisit in late July 2022 despite the extreme winter temperatures they experienced (< −30°C, heavy snow cover). We extracted key plant phenology metrics from the PiCAMs and captured strong differences across key Arctic plant species. We showed that the PiCAM has the potential to be widely used for monitoring plant phenology across the broader Arctic region, addressing the need for ground‐based understanding of Arctic phenological diversity to develop knowledge of plant response to climate change and to validate remote sensing products.
