Social media insights for non-luxury fashion SMEs in emerging markets: evidence from young consumers
Authors: Senanu Bright , Anning-Dorson Thomas , Tackie Nii Nookwei 
Published: January 2023

PurposeThe study investigates the factors that influence young consumers (Gen Zs and Ys)in emerging markets to engage fashion ads of non-luxury fashion retail small- to medium-size enterprises (SMEs) on social media. Through a desk assessment of practice and the phenomenon's available evidence in the extant literature, four main drivers were delineated, reviewed and subsequently tested to influence young consumers' behavioural engagements of emerging markets' fashion SMEs' social media contents.Design/methodology/approachA non-probability sample of 1,150 respondents(Gen Y and Z combined)in Ghana, an emerging market, formed the sample for the study. The respondents assessed four empirically identified antecedents (sales campaigns, relevant sales-related information, catchy and inspiring product/brand photo/video and consumer-generated contents)that are likely to influence their behavioural engagement on social media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp and Twitter). SmartPLS (version 3.3.3) was employed to perform partial least square structural equation modelling.FindingsThe results showed that to engage fashion-related ads, particularly from non-luxury fashion SMEs, young consumers consider sales campaigns, cues from consumer-generated contents, as well as quality and inspiring videos and photos. Less attention is given to relevant sales-related information.Practical implicationsThe three significant drivers of engagement found in the current study provide managerial knowledge for non-luxury fashion SMEs in emerging markets. Videos and still pictures must be of high definition and quality. Short and long promotional campaigns may drive positive behavioural engagements. Interactivity between fashion SMEs and young consumers is encouraged as it precipitates the positive engagement behaviours enabled by social media. The study concludes with actionable recommendations for the non-luxury fashion SME sector in emerging economies.Originality/valueThe study is the first of its kind to ascertain what drives young consumers' engagement with non-luxury fashion SMEs on social media. It provides managerial insights and guidance to SMEs in emerging markets on effective social media fashion retailing targeted mainly at digital natives, the dominant generational cohorts on social media in most emerging economies.
Evaluation of the aminosilane and colloidal silica treated red iron oxide pigment effects in styrene acrylic and polyurethane dispersion
Authors: Ozdemir Mehmet , Mert Serap , Aytac Ayse 
Published: January 2023

Purpose
This study aims to perform the surface treatment of synthetic α-Fe2O3 red iron oxide pigment with hydrolysate 3-aminopropyl silane (A) and colloidal silica (CS) and investigate the effects of surface-treated pigment on the styrene acrylic (SA) emulsion and polyurethane (PU) dispersion.

Design/methodology/approach
For this purpose, firstly red iron oxide particles were modified with A and CS separately in an aqueous medium. After isolation of the modified iron oxide were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS). Moreover, the degree of the dispersion stability of the modified pigment in coatings with SA emulsion and PU dispersion was investigated by using an oscillation rheometer. Loss (G''), storage (G') modulus, loss factor [tan(δ)] and yield stress (τ0) values were determined by performing amplitude and frequency sweep tests.

Findings
The τ0 in SA coatings decreases with the amount of used A and increases with the amount of used CS. The τ0 decreases as the amount of used A and CS in PU coatings increases. The use of CS on red iron oxide pigments causes storage modulus to increase in SA coatings at low angular frequencies, while it causes a decrease in PU coatings.

Originality/value
To the best of the authors’ knowledge, for the first time, the suspended state of the iron oxide hybrid pigment formed with CS in the coating was investigated rheologically in this study.
How can brands become central in the consumers’ life?

Published: January 2023

PurposeBrand centrality is a religion-like brand–customer relationship, which refers to the extent to which a brand is in the center or heart of a consumer’s life. While its role in the fast fashion industry is prominent, its drivers and effects have not been comprehensively studied. This study aims to investigate the relationships between three psychological drivers (i.e. fashion-conscious, chronic shopping orientation and self-esteem), one behavioral driver (i.e. the average frequency of shopping), brand centrality and relationship quality in the fast fashion industry.Design/methodology/approachA survey of 250 fast fashion consumers was conducted and partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to analyze the data.FindingsThe study shows that fashion consciousness and chronic shopping orientation are positively related to brand centrality, whereas self-esteem is negatively related to brand centrality. The findings also show that shopping frequency moderates the relationship between fashion consciousness and brand centrality, and between chronic shopping orientation and brand centrality.Post hocanalysis indicates that brand centrality fully mediates the relationship between chronic shopping orientation and relationship quality.Originality/valueThis study is one of the first studies to investigate the psychological and behavioral drivers of brand centrality.
Exploring valuation practices in diagnosis‐as‐category: The rising dominance of clinical practice in the categorisation of Sepsis, 1991–2016
Authors: Carmel Simon , Jacobi Erik 
Published: January 2023

AbstractThis article contributes to the sociology of diagnosis by exploring how an acute medical condition, sepsis, was categorised over a 25‐year period. We focus on publications reporting the outcomes of three consensus conferences that were convened to stabilise definitions of sepsis and on the failure of a controversial drug. We also focus on the category ofsevere sepsisby exploring why it was considered useful when introduced in 1991 but redundant by 2016. Drawing on insights from the sociology of valuation, our analysis of pivotal events within this period involving actors from clinical practice, biomedical science, regulation and industry identifies numerous and often contesting evaluative frameworks that came to bear on the categorisation of sepsis. Our analysis further reveals that the evaluative framework of clinical practice, mobilised by the professional specialty of intensive and critical care, became dominant in this categorisation, and that this did not reflect a dominance of biomedicine despite concerning an acute medical condition. Our contributions are to posit the ontological purpose of diagnostic categories and the role of valuation practices and strategic agency in diagnosis‐as‐category.
Sampling and recovery of ignitable liquid residues (ILRs) from fire debris using capillary microextraction of volatiles (CMV) for on‐site analysis
Authors: Valdes Nicole B. , Almirall José R. 
Published: January 2023

AbstractA new, fast, and ultra‐sensitive headspace sampling method using the Capillary Microextraction of Volatiles (CMV) device is demonstrated for the analysis of ignitable liquid residues (ILRs) in fire debris. This headspace sampling method involves the use of a heated can (60°C) to aid in the recovery of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from medium and heavy petroleum distillates. Our group has previously reported the utility of CMV to extract gasoline at ambient temperature in less than 5 min in the field. This work evaluates the recovery and analysis of low mass loadings (tens of ng) of VOCs from charcoal lighter fluid, kerosene, and diesel fuel. Nonane, decane, undecane, tridecane, tetradecane, and pentadecane were selected for evaluation of recovery to represent these ILR classes. The face‐down heated can headspace sampling technique was compared to the previously reported, non‐heated, paper cup headspace sampling technique. Mass recovery improvements of 50%–200% for five of the six target compounds in diesel fuel were achieved compared to the non‐heated sampling method. The average relative standard deviation (reported as % RSD) between the replicate trials decreased from an average of 28% to 6% when using the heated can method. Ignitable liquids were spiked onto burned debris in a live burn exercise and sampled using the heated can and paper cup headspace sampling techniques. The heated sampling technique reported here, for the first time, demonstrates an effective extraction method that when coupled to a portable GC–MS instrument allows for a sampling and analysis protocol in the field in less than 30 min.

AbstractEpidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)‐mutated squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is less common than adenocarcinoma. The third‐generation EGFR‐tyrosine kinase inhibitor, osimertinib, is effective in EGFR‐mutated lung adenocarcinoma, but its efficacy in EGFR‐mutated lung SCC is unclear. The patient was an 83‐year‐old male. He was diagnosed with SCC of the lung, and molecular analysis revealed that the tumor was positive for EGFR exon19 deletion. He was treated with osimertinib 80 mg/day. No adverse events were observed, but after 18 days of therapy, he complained of dyspnea, and a computed tomography scan showed enlarged lung cancer. The case was categorized as a progressive disease. The patient died 3 weeks later. The autopsy findings confirmed the diagnosis of lung SCC, with morphology and immunohistochemical staining identical to the tumor obtained by bronchoscopy. Next‐generation sequencing showed the presence of TP53 R158L, CDK6, and KRAS amplifications. The current case report shows that next‐generation sequencing can explain why osimertinib is ineffective in EGFR‐mutated SCC.
voluModel: Modelling species distributions in three‐dimensional space
Authors: Owens Hannah L. , Rahbek Carsten 
Published: January 2023

Abstract

Ecological niche modelling (ENM), species distribution modelling and related spatial analytical methods were first developed in two‐dimensional (2‐D) terrestrial systems; many common ENM workflows organize and analyse geographically structured occurrence and environmental data based on 2‐D latitude and longitude coordinates. This may be suitable for most terrestrial organisms, but pelagic marine species are distributed not only horizontally but also vertically. Extracting environmental data for marine species based only on latitude and longitude coordinates may result in poorly trained ENMs and inaccurate prediction of species' geographical distributions, as water conditions may vary strikingly with depth.

We developed the voluModel R package to efficiently extract three‐dimensional (3‐D) environmental data for training ENMs (i.e. presences and absences/pseudoabsences/background). voluModel also provides tools for 3‐D ENM projection visualization and estimation of model extrapolation risk.

We present the main features of the voluModel R package and provide a simple modelling workflow for Luminous Hake, Steindachneria argentea, as an example. We also compare results from 2‐D and 3‐D spatial models to demonstrate differences in how the modelling methods perform.

The use of 3‐D environmental data generates more precise estimates of environmental conditions for training ENMs. This method also improves inference of species' suitable abiotic ecological niches and potential geographic ranges. 3‐D niche modelling is important step forward for marine macroecology and biogeography, as it will yield more accurate estimates of ocean species richness and potential past and future changes in the horizontal and vertical dimensions of species' geographic ranges. The latter is particularly relevant considering ongoing climate change that may cause redistribution of species in environmental space (both in latitude and depth) over time.

Abstract

Species distribution models (SDMs) are a useful mean to understand how environmental variation influences species geographical distribution. SDMs are implemented by several different algorithms. Unfortunately, these algorithms consistently lose accuracy exactly when they are needed the most, that is with rare species, originating the so‐called rare‐species modelling paradox. Although approaches exist to tackle this problem, most notably by performing and then averaging a number of bivariate models, they are usually computationally intensive and were never shown to apply successfully to the rarest species (i.e. with less than 20 geographical occurrences).

Here, we present a new algorithm, ENphylo, embedded in the readily‐available R package RRdtn, which couples Environmental Niche Factor Analysis (ENFA) and phylogenetic imputation to model the distribution of rare species.

Using the fossil record of 31 species of large mammals that lived during the late Pleistocene as the source data to sample from, we demonstrate ENphylo provides good SDM evaluation scores, with area under the curve and Sørensen Index both consistently above 0.75, True Skills Statistics above 0.4 and Boyce Index above 0.5 in most cases, when just 10 fossil occurrences are randomly drawn from their respective fossil records. ENphylo proved significantly more accurate than ENFA and the ensemble of bivariate models using Maxent, Generalized Linear Model and Random Forest algorithms. Intriguingly, we found that randomly drawing as little as 10 occurrence data points per species allows ENphylo to perform equally well as Maxent run using the entire fossil record of these same species and data.

ENphylo provides a fast and accurate solution to perform species distribution modelling with rare species, which will help predicting their distribution in the light of climate change, and to delineate how rare extinct species reacted to past climatic variation.

Authors: Ramli Raziqah , Jambor Maxwell Andrew , Kong Chia Yew 
Published: January 2023

AbstractBackgroundThe most common general surgical emergency operations are laparoscopic appendicectomy, laparoscopic cholecystectomy, hernia repair, hemorrhoidectomy and colectomy. Patients commonly perform an internet search for more information prior to undergoing surgery, which can lead to an inappropriate understanding of their procedure. The aim is to assess the quality of information available on three of the most used search engines.MethodsA search was conducted onGoogle.com,Bing.comandYahoo.comusing the terms related to laparoscopic appendicectomy, laparoscopic cholecystectomy, hemorrhoidectomy, hernia repair and colectomy. First 20 results from each search engine were collected for evaluation. Results were excluded if they were sponsored, duplicates, academic publications, advertisements, forums, audiovisual tools, social media or any non‐English information. Included results were assessed for reliability using DISCERN and JAMA benchmark score. Readability was assessed using Flesch Reading Ease (FRE) Score and Simple Measure of Gobbledygook (SMOG).ResultsHundred and ninety‐seven websites were analysed, 44.7% were published by institutions, 34.5% by health websites and 20.8% by independent surgeons. Mean DISCERN scores for Institutions was 54.6 ± 11.3, independent surgeons 45.9 ± 11.4 and health websites 58.7 ± 10.3. Mean JAMA score for Institutions was 1.0 ± 1.0, independent surgeons 0.1 ± 0.4 and health websites 1.7 ± 1.1. FRE scores for institutions was 51.6 ± 10.3, independent surgeons 40.9 ± 10.2, and health websites 45.7 ± 12.3. SMOG scores were 9.8 ± 1.5 for institutions, 11.4 ± 1.6 for independent surgeons and 10.6 ± 1.7 for health websites.ConclusionHealth information on common general surgical procedures found on search engines are generally fair to good quality but still above the suggested reading level of the population. Information on surgical procedures should be written at recommended reading level of 13–14 years old.
Genomic characterization of beta‐haemolytic streptococci isolated from prosthetic joint infections
Authors: Löwbeer Niklas , Stegger Marc , Söderquist Bo 
Published: January 2023

Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is an increasing concern for the medical profession, as higher numbers of arthroplasty surgeries lead to rising PJI‐related costs. Streptococcal PJIs constitute approximately 10% of PJIs, but their genetic features and characteristics remain largely unexplored. Little is known about antimicrobial resistance (AMR) rates, whether some sequence types (ST) dominate, and whether certain virulence‐associated genes are overrepresented. We used whole‐genome sequencing of Streptococcus dysgalactiae (n = 22), Streptococcus agalactiae (n = 10) and S. pyogenes (n = 1) to elicit genomic data on 33 beta‐haemolytic streptococci isolated from PJIs in Region Örebro county, Sweden. Relatedness was inferred based on single nucleotide polymorphisms in S. dysgalactiae and S. agalactiae. The genomic data were screened for virulence‐associated genes available in the Virulence Factor Database. All isolates were screened for both phenotypic and genotypic resistance. The S. dysgalactiae and S. agalactiae isolates were genetically diverse, although 32% of S. dysgalactiae isolates (n = 7) were ST20. The speS and PI‐2A genes were less represented in these isolates among virulence‐associated genes, and AMR was more frequently observed in S. agalactiae. We conclude that PJIs caused by beta‐haemolytic streptococci are not dominated by genetically similar beta‐haemolytic streptococci. There were distinct inter‐species differences in AMR between S. agalactiae and S. dysgalactiae.
Immunolocalization of CD3, CD5 and MHCII in amputated tail and limb of the lizard Podarcis muralis marks a scarring healing program
Authors: Alibardi Lorenzo 
Published: January 2023

AbstractThe effect of inflammation on tail and limb amputation in lizards is believed to inhibit regeneration. In support of previous studies, the present experimental and immunohistochemical analysis has detected some markers (CD3, CD5, MHCII) of mammalian T‐lymphocytes and macrophages of inflammatory type in three different conditions where inflammation is activated. Bioinformatics comparisons indicate that the employed antibodies cross‐react with lizard cells. While in regenerating tails few or no immune cells are seen, in microbial‐infected and non‐regenerating tails, a massive infiltration of mast cells, sparse macrophages and T‐lymphocytes is present. In healing limbs, immunolabelled cells likely represented by macrophages and lymphocytes remain in healing tissues of the stump for 2–3 weeks. In the regenerating blastema after heat cauterization of the apical region, a massive infiltration of mast cells and granulocytes occurs at 1–3 days post‐injury and a scarring outgrowth is later formed. Although the three markers appear not discriminate the types of immune‐cells in lizard, they confirms that immunolabelled cells expressing markers of inflammation are produced in large number in the tail or limbs with strong inflammatory condition. Coupled with previous studies, the present observations support the idea that a high inflammation attracting numerous mast‐cells, inflammatory macrophages and T‐lymphocyte inhibits regeneration.
