Purpose
This study aims to investigate the strategic priorities of green building projects and analyze energy consumption alternatives in green residence projects using two innovative methods.

Design/methodology/approach
This study uses two methods, decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) to measure strategic priorities and golden-cut quantum spherical fuzzy technique for order preference by similarity to the ideal solution (TOPSIS) to analyze energy consumption alternatives.

Findings
The study reveals that sustainability and atmosphere are the most significant factors in determining the priorities of green residence projects, whereas innovation has a limited impact on addressing environmental challenges in the building sector. The ranking of energy use alternatives shows that sustainability issues and atmosphere quality of space heating and cooking are the top priorities, whereas other factors like white goods, water heating, lighting and space cooling are ranked lower.

Originality/value
This paper offers a significant contribution to the understanding of green buildings by introducing innovative methodological approaches. Theoretically, it uses the DEMATEL to enhance traditional analytical frameworks, marking a novel effort in understanding green residence projects. In addition, the golden-cut quantum spherical fuzzy TOPSIS method is introduced, offering a comprehensive decision-making framework for green projects, considering factors like energy consumption and economic feasibility. This combination of methodologies provides a holistic evaluation, emphasizing sustainability in green building construction. This study reveals untapped potential for environmental sustainability and energy efficiency, enriching the existing knowledge base.

Authors: Chuah Teik-Leong , Hong Meenchee , Foroughi Behzad 
Published: November 2023

Purpose
Infection and cross-contamination have been massive concerns in the medical field. This study aims to investigate consumers’ awareness and their choices of endoscopes, which may deter them from the cross-contamination problem.

Design/methodology/approach
A discrete choice experiment survey was administered to 166 respondents in Penang, Malaysia. Participants were asked to make hypothetical choices and estimate their preference for endoscopes. The multinomial logit model was used to estimate the assumptions based on the stated preference data collected.

Findings
Only two-fifths of respondents are aware of their rights regarding endoscope selection. The findings are consistent with utility theory, where choices are made to maximise personal satisfaction. If given the choice, consumers preferred the single-use endoscope over the reusable or the doctor’s preferred endoscope. Price, insurance coverage and personal income are significant determinants of the consumer’s choice of endoscopes.

Research limitations/implications
This study only investigates subjects living in Penang. Other possible important attributes to endoscope choices, such as environmental and device availability may be considered in future study.

Practical implications
The findings may create awareness among consumers about their rights when choosing medical devices. It may also improve health-care institutions’ (users’) and device manufacturers’ (industry players’) understanding of consumer needs and demands from socioeconomic perspectives.

Social implications
The research offers insights into consumer rights and awareness of health-care services. Ultimately leading to better policy to protect consumers’ rights and safety.

Originality/value
This study contributes to the rare literature on consumer rights toward medical devices, in particular, the consumer’s awareness of the choice of endoscopes.
A probit-based analysis of the deep stock market drawdowns
Authors: Tokic Damir , Jackson Dave 
Published: November 2023

PurposeThis study is motivated in part by the fact that the unfolding 2022 bear market, which has reached the −25% drawdown, has not been preceded by the inverted 10Y-3 m spread or an inverted near-term forward spread.Design/methodology/approachThe authors develop a three-factor probit model to predict/explain the deep stock market drawdowns, which the authors define as the drawdowns in excess of 20%.FindingsThe study results show that (1) the rising credit risk predicts a deep drawdown about a year in advance and (2) the monetary policy easing precedes an imminent drawdown below the 20% threshold.Originality/valueThis study three-factor probit model shows adaptability beyond the typical recessionary bear market and predicts/explains the liquidity-based selloffs, like the 2022 and possibly the 1987 deep drawdowns.
Exploring national digital transformation and Industry 4.0 policies through text mining: a comparative analysis including the Turkish case
Authors: Yildirim Nihan , Gultekin Derya , Hürses Cansu , Akman Abdullah Mert 
Published: November 2023

Purpose
This paper aims to use text mining methods to explore the similarities and differences between countries’ national digital transformation (DT) and Industry 4.0 (I4.0) policies. The study examines the applicability of text mining as an alternative for comprehensive clustering of national I4.0 and DT strategies, encouraging policy researchers toward data science that can offer rapid policy analysis and benchmarking.

Design/methodology/approach
With an exploratory research approach, topic modeling, principal component analysis and unsupervised machine learning algorithms (k-means and hierarchical clustering) are used for clustering national I4.0 and DT strategies. This paper uses a corpus of policy documents and related scientific publications from several countries and integrate their science and technology performance. The paper also presents the positioning of Türkiye’s I4.0 and DT national policy as a case from a developing country context.

Findings
Text mining provides meaningful clustering results on similarities and differences between countries regarding their national I4.0 and DT policies, aligned with their geographic, economic and political circumstances. Findings also shed light on the DT strategic landscape and the key themes spanning various policy dimensions. Drawing from the Turkish case, political options are discussed in the context of developing (follower) countries’ I4.0 and DT.

Practical implications
The paper reveals meaningful clustering results on similarities and differences between countries regarding their national I4.0 and DT policies, reflecting political proximities aligned with their geographic, economic and political circumstances. This can help policymakers to comparatively understand national DT and I4.0 policies and use this knowledge to reflect collaborative and competitive measures to their policies.

Originality/value
This paper provides a unique combined methodology for text mining-based policy analysis in the DT context, which has not been adopted. In an era where computational social science and machine learning have gained importance and adaptability to political and social science fields, and in the technology and innovation management discipline, clustering applications showed similar and different policy patterns in a timely and unbiased manner.

Authors: Abu Khait Abdallah , Shellman Juliette 
Published: November 2023

AbstractPurposeIn cross‐cultural research, there is a need for standard rules for translating research measurement instruments. This article describes the Reminiscence Functions Scale (RFS) translation process from English into Arabic and the rigorous process followed in translating the scale. The process described can serve as a blueprint for translating research instruments for cross‐cultural studies and clinical practice.MethodSix integrated steps were used to establish content and semantic equivalences. Six bilingual professional translators participated in the translation project and utilized the Flaherty 3‐point scale to assess and rate the translated RFS.FindingsThe difficulties encountered during the study were finding nuanced translation equivalences for Likert scale responses, the translation of phrases and idioms, and logistical issues.ConclusionsCombining translation methods is the ideal choice to achieve robust translation.Implication for Nursing PracticeThe proposed translation method for research instruments would assist nurses in appraising prior research's findings, delineating potential effective nursing interventions, and facilitating comparisons of individuals from various cultures and contexts.
Indications for root canal treatment following traumatic dental injuries to permanent teeth
Authors: Abbott PV 
Published: November 2023

AbstractThe dental pulp may respond favourably or unfavourably to traumatic dental injuries. The most serious unfavourable responses are pulp necrosis and infection of the root canal system. These cause apical periodontitis and/or external inflammatory resorption of the tooth. The following injuries require root canal treatment as part of their emergency management—(A) complicated crown fractures (but some may be suitable for conservative pulp treatments, such as pulp capping, partial pulpotomy or pulpotomy), (B) complicated crown‐root fractures, (C) supra‐crestal coronal third root fractures and (D) injuries where pulp necrosis is predictable or highly likely to occur AND where there has been damage to the root surface and/or periodontal ligament with the aim of preventing external inflammatory resorption. This latter group of injuries are avulsion, intrusion, lateral luxation with a crown fracture, extrusion with a crown fracture (all in fully developed teeth) plus avulsion with a crown fracture and intrusion with a crown fracture (both in incompletely developed teeth). All other injuries should not have root canal treatment commenced as part of the emergency management, but they must be reviewed regularly to monitor the pulp for any adverse changes to its status, particularly pulp necrosis and infection of the root canal system.
Breaking bad: A model of expatriate managerial misbehavior
Authors: Ljubica Jasenko , Shaffer Margaret , Baker Colleen 
Published: November 2023

AbstractThe purpose of this paper is to develop a model to explain why and how some expatriate managers engage in misbehavior in host countries, a notoriously elusive phenomenon in the academe. Integrating social cognitive and fraud triangle theories, we conceptualize this phenomenon as an externally driven, cognitive decision‐making process. Specifically, we theorize that discrepancies between both home and host country environments and expatriate managerial and parent‐company performance expectations and on the ground realities that expatriates face trigger expatriate managerial cognitive self‐regulatory dynamics. Consequently, extrinsic reputation and intrinsic self‐esteem threats provide motivation for managers to learn vicariously from the host social environment about the effectiveness of misbehavior for achieving their goals. Expatriate self‐efficacy and the propensity to morally disengage moderate this process. Parent company controls also impact the influence of vicarious learning on expatriate managers' development of motivation, justification, and opportunities for misbehavior. Our model contributes to the misbehavior and expatriate literatures and extends social cognitive and fraud triangle theories.

SummaryBackground and ObjectivesThis study analyzed the extent to which the recent introduction of more effective treatments has led to an improvement in real‐world psoriasis patients.Patients and MethodsPatient characteristics and the first‐year treatment effectiveness in biologic‐naive patients have been analyzed since 2004 until now, irrespective of treatment switches.ResultsData from 2,729 patients were eligible for this analysis. The proportion of female patients increased significantly over the years from 29.9% to 36.2% (p < 0.028), while the number of patients with psoriatic arthritis declined from 36.6% to 30.0% (p < 0.001). Moreover, the duration of psoriatic disease and PASI at the start of the treatment significantly decreased. Last observation carrief forward (LOCF) analysis indicated that PASI 90 response increased from 18.9 to 44.6% at 3 months and from 32.9 to 66.8% at 12 months after treatment started. Similary, the PASI ≤ 3 rates increased from 33.2% to 66.0% at 3 months and from 41.9% to 78.9% at 12 months after the treatment started.ConclusionsThe continuous introduction of more efficient biologics has led to significant improvements in patient care and clinical outcomes. Though one out of three to five patients, depending on the endpoint selected, nowadays still does not achieve an entirely satisfactory treatment response (i.e., PASI 90 or PASI ≤ 3).

Published: November 2023

AbstractBackground and purposeVisual hallucinations are a common, potentially distressing experience of people with Lewy body disease (LBD). The underlying brain changes giving rise to visual hallucinations are not fully understood, although previous models have posited that alterations in the connectivity between brain regions involved in attention and visual processing are critical.MethodsData from 41 people with LBD and visual hallucinations, 48 with LBD without visual hallucinations and 60 similarly aged healthy comparator participants were used. Connections were investigated between regions in the visual cortex and ventral attention, dorsal attention and default mode networks.ResultsParticipants with visual hallucinations had worse cognition and motor function than those without visual hallucinations. In those with visual hallucinations, reduced functional connectivity within the ventral attention network and from the visual to default mode network was found. Connectivity strength between the visual and default mode network correlated with the number of correct responses on a pareidolia task, and connectivity within the ventral attention network with visuospatial performance.ConclusionsOur results add to evidence of dysfunctional connectivity in the visual and attentional networks in those with LBD and visual hallucinations.

Published: November 2023

AbstractBullous pemphigoid (BP) is a severe autoimmune blistering disease affecting patients' quality of life. Gut microbiota (GM) dysbiosis have been investigated to be associated with multiple autoimmune diseases. However, the relationship between GM and BP onset and remission remains to be established by a systematic study. We conducted a study that enrolled 24 patients with BP onset (BP group), 24 patients under remission stage (BP‐R group) and 24 healthy controls (HC group). We applied 16S rRNA sequencing on faecal samples and revealed a separation of the microbiota structure. At the family level, Lachnospiraceae, Prevotellaceae and Veillonellaceae were more abundant in the HC and BP‐R groups, while Bacteroidaceae, Ruminococcaceae and Enterobacteriaceae were more abundant in the BP group. Bugbase analysis revealed the potentially pathogenic bacteria had an increasing trend in the BP group compared with the HC group and this variation vanished in the BP‐R group. At the amplicon sequence variants (ASV) level, Bacteroides ovatus (ASV40) and Veillonella dispar (ASV140) significantly decreased, while Prevotella copri (ASV54) increased in the BP group compared to the HC and BP‐R groups. The HC group and BP‐R group shared similar abundance. Furthermore, by correlation analysis, we investigated key ASVs correlated with clinical parameters and found some discriminate biomarkers between the BP and BP‐R groups. Our study established a dynamic GM profile in BP patients under different disease activity, providing a new direction to understand the role of GM in BP pathogenesis and therapeutic effects.
A novel Ca2+ double cone vector system to treat compromised skin
Authors: Baumann Julia , Wandrey Franziska , Sacher Riikka , Zülli Fred 
Published: November 2023

AbstractBackgroundStressed, damaged or very aged skin is predominantly characterized by a malfunctioning skin barrier. Underlying skin barrier malfunction is a reduced or defective calcium gradient in the epidermis. Consequently, replenishing the compromised skin's calcium stores with topical calcium could be a potential therapeutic approach.MethodsWe investigated the effect of our novel Ca2+ double cone vector system on improving the differentiation and barrier function of reconstructed human epidermis (RHE), cultured at low basal calcium (0.3 mM) to represent very aged skin. Furthermore, in a randomized placebo‐controlled clinical study the skin barrier of 20 healthy volunteers was challenged with 2% sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) for 24 h under occlusion, following and/or prior to treatment with a gel containing 2% of our calcium vector system.ResultsCulture in reduced basal calcium conditions (0.3 mM) strongly impeded the formation of a dense stratified epidermis. The apical treatment with 1.1 mM CaCl2 was not able to restore a functional differentiation. Treatment with 0.1% of the Ca2+ delivery system rescued the differentiation process and resulted in a normal stratified epidermis. Clinically, application of the Ca2+ vector system prior to and following SLS stress prevented increases in skin irritation and transepidermal water loss (TEWL) compared to placebo controls. Importantly, the treatment also significantly accelerated the recovery time following SLS stress.ConclusionWith our novel Ca2+ vector system, we highlight the delivery of bioavailable Ca2+ ions into the skin as a new and successful approach to treat a damaged barrier present in stressed, aged or atopic skin.
