Fighting fire with fire: the use of an auxiliary platform to address the inherent weaknesses of a platform-based business
Authors: Au Cheuk Hang , Tan Barney , Ge Chunmian 
Published: May 2023

PurposeThe success of sharing economy (SE) platforms has made it attractive for many firms to adopt this business model. However, the inherent weaknesses of these platforms, such as their unstandardized service quality, the burden of maintenance on resource owners and the threat of multi-homing, have become increasingly apparent. Previous prescriptions for addressing these weaknesses, however, are limited because they do not account for factors such as compliance costs and information asymmetry, and tend to solve the problem on only one side of the platform at the expense of the others. By exploring the strategies deployed and actions undertaken across the development of Xbed, a successful accommodation-sharing platform in China, this study aims to explore an alternative solution that would overcome the aforementioned weaknesses without the corresponding compromises.Design/methodology/approachThe authors conducted a case study consisting of secondary data and interviews with 15 informants who were representatives of Xbed's top management, organizational IT functions and its various business units.FindingsThe authors identified three inherent weaknesses that may be found in SE business models and how these weaknesses can be overcome without compromising other stakeholders through an auxiliary platform. The authors also discuss the advantages, characteristics, deployment and nature of auxiliary platforms.Originality/valueThis model contributes an in-depth view of establishing and nurturing auxiliary platforms to complement a primary SE platform. Owners and managers of SE platforms may use our model as the basis of guidelines for optimizing their platforms' development, thereby extending the benefits of SE to more stakeholders.

Published: May 2023

PurposeThis paper aims to identify and model barriers to internationalising automotive small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) from emerging market perspectives using the interpretive structural modelling (ISM) approach.Design/methodology/approachIn this paper, 13 critical barriers are identified through an exhaustive literature review and the Delphi method. The ISM tool is then used to establish interrelationships among the identified barriers to expose and discuss the key barriers having high-driving power.FindingsIt was found that barriers such as trade agreements and export documentation, exchange rates and material inadequacies were relatively less challenging than the other barriers. At the next level, there are barriers such as supply chain, high international quality standards, legal barriers, skilled labour marketing capacity and information and logistics and infrastructure. Finally, barriers such as government policies, entrepreneurial orientation and technology and finance availability posed the most significant challenge for the internationalisation of Indian SMEs. These barriers warrants immediate and considerable attention.Research limitations/implicationsThis study developed a model based on experts’ opinions, which may be biased and influence the final model as proposed in this study. This research will help the owners/managers of the SMEs and policymakers identify and understand the significance and relevance of automotive sector barriers while strategizing.Originality/valueTo the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first time an attempt has been made to apply ISM methodology to explore the interdependencies among the critical barriers of internationalisation for SMEs of Indian automotive industries. This study will guide the owner–managers management practices to overcome ineffective practices and move towards successful internationalisation.
Solving task management conflict in hotel establishments through knowledge management tools: effects on innovation capabilities
Authors: Donate Mario J. , Guadamillas Fátima , González-Mohíno Miguel 
Published: May 2023

Purpose
This paper aims to analyze factors based on organizational knowledge management (KM; transactional memory systems and knowledge-oriented leadership [K-OL]) that help firms to mitigate conflicts based on task management at work, with the aim to improve their innovation capabilities (IC). The knowledge-based view of the firm, conflict management theory and cognitive collective engagement theory have been used to build a model of relationships that connects the development of positive KM contexts and management of dysfunctional conflict with IC improvement.

Design/methodology/approach
Data survey collected from inland hotel establishments in Spain is used to test seven hypotheses by means of structural equations modeling, applying the partial least squares technique. Direct, indirect and mediating relationships between variables are examined from the structural path model.

Findings
The results confirm that, as expected, IC improve when K-OL and transactive memory systems (TMSs) are properly implemented by hotel establishments, which leads them to reduce negative effects of task management conflict (TMC). Significant direct effects are found between the key variables of the study and also a significant indirect effect between K-OL and IC through TMS reinforcement and the mitigation of TMC.

Practical implications
This paper provides useful ideas for hotel managers about how to improve KM contexts in their establishments while avoiding TMC. Efforts devoted to creating those contexts by hotel establishments are shown to be effective to improve their IC and create competitive advantages.

Originality/value
The analysis of IC improvement by studying TMC mitigation had not been researched to date by the KM literature. The consideration and testing of a model that integrates KM-related tools such as K-OL and TMS to avoid TMC in the hotel industry is the main contribution of this study.

Published: May 2023

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to describe and contextualize the processes of leadership development through mentoring in a Leadership Learning Lab (“the Lab”) and to explore the implications and applications of the Lab's approach as a social learning space.Design/methodology/approachThe authors used a constructivist grounded theoretical approach and conducted semi-structured interviews with participants in the Lab, which operated out of a leadership center in a mid-sized Canadian business school.FindingsThe findings show that participants used their individual life experiences to practice leadership development through mentoring in a social learning space of prescribed uncertainty. The participants identified with becoming flexible, self-actualized leaders by learning to view their own experiences and those of their Lab partners through a leadership lens.Originality/valueThis study contributes to an understanding of the “doing” of leadership development in a social learning space and highlights three relational processes through which leadership development emerged through mentoring: rapport-building, democratization and reflection.
Fish on Fire: Shifts in Amazonian fish communities after floodplain forest fires
Authors: Lugo‐Carvajal Arnold , Holmgren Milena , Zuanon Jansen , van der Sleen Peter 
Published: May 2023

Abstract

Severe droughts can lead to fires that cause massive tree mortality in even the wettest and most isolated Amazonian forests. After repeated fires, blackwater floodplain forests can remain in an open vegetation state of arrested succession that facilitates a transition towards a white‐sand ‘savanna‐like’ vegetation. These vegetation shifts, from closed‐canopy floodplain forests to open fire scars and eventually white‐sand savannas, may have profound implications for fish communities that depend on floodplain forests for food and recruitment. In turn, changes in fish communities may contribute to the arrested forest recovery after fires as fish are important seed dispersal agents for many floodplain tree species.

To explore the impacts of floodplain forest fires on fish communities, we sampled fish in unburnt forests, fire scars, and white‐sand savannas in the middle Rio Negro basin (Brazil) during two consecutive flooding seasons. We compared the abundance, species richness, and the taxonomic and trophic composition of fish assemblages across the three habitat types.

We found significant shifts in fish assemblages in fire scars compared to unburnt floodplain forests. Also, as fire scars increased in size, total fish biomass decreased strongly. Fish communities in unburnt floodplain forests seem to be characterized by a higher proportion of smaller and omnivorous fish species than fish communities in burned floodplain forests and white sand savannas. Fish assemblages in fire scars and white‐sand savanna were not significantly different.

Synthesis and Applications. Amazonian fish communities change after floodplain forest fires. Unburnt forests have diverse fish communities, with a large proportion of unique and small omnivorous species. In contrast, carnivores and detritivores become more common in fire scars and white‐sand savannas formed after forest fires. Less omnivore fish after forest fires can reduce tree seed dispersal and forest regeneration, affecting ecosystem functioning and the services provided by Amazonian forests. Fish are also a primary source of food and income for people living in Amazonian floodplains. Preventing forest fires is therefore of fundamental importance for the conservation of Amazonian aquatic and terrestrial ecological communities as well as for the livelihood of people.

AbstractLignin‐modifying enzymes (LMEs), which include laccases (Lacs), manganese peroxidases (MnPs), versatile peroxidases (VPs), and lignin peroxidases (LiPs), have been considered key factors in lignin degradation by white‐rot fungi because they oxidize lignin model compounds and depolymerize synthetic ligninin vitro. However, it remains unclear whether these enzymes are essential/important in the actual degradation of natural lignin in plant cell walls. To address this long‐standing issue, we examined the lignin‐degrading abilities of multiplemnp/vp/lacmutants ofPleurotus ostreatus. Onevp2/vp3/mnp3/mnp6quadruple‐gene mutant was generated from a monokaryotic wild‐type strain PC9 using plasmid‐based CRISPR/Cas9. Also, twovp2/vp3/mnp2/mnp3/mnp6, twovp2/vp3/mnp3/mnp6/lac2quintuple‐gene mutants, and twovp2/vp3/mnp2/mnp3/mnp6/lac2sextuple‐gene mutants were generated. The lignin‐degrading abilities of the sextuple andvp2/vp3/mnp2/mnp3/mnp6quintuple‐gene mutants on the Beech wood sawdust medium reduced drastically, but not so much for those of thevp2/vp3/mnp3/mnp6/lac2mutants and the quadruple mutant strain. The sextuple‐gene mutants also barely degraded lignin in Japanese Cedar wood sawdust and milled rice straw. Thus, this study presented evidence that the LMEs, especially MnPs and VPs, play a crucial role in the degradation of natural lignin byP.ostreatusfor the first time.
From History‐writing to (Hi)story‐telling: Historical Novel, Alternate/Counterfactual History and Implicit Uchrony
Authors: VINALE ADRIANO 
Published: May 2023

AbstractThe main aim of this article is to reconstruct the evolutions and the political implications of the Italian historical novel between the nineteenth and twenty‐first centuries. The starting hypothesis is that the historical novel has always performed a vicarious function with respect to traditional historiography. In the Italian case, in particular, the canon of the historical novel has progressively lost the apologetic function it had during the Risorgimento, turning into an instrument of indirect criticism of Italian society after 1861. At the turn of the twentieth and twenty‐first centuries, the historical novel had a new editorial fortune, thanks to authors such as Umberto Eco, Valerio Evangelisti, Luther Blissett, Giancarlo De Cataldo, Giuseppe Genna, Tiziano Scarpa and Wu Ming, becoming a very fertile field of historical analysis on the transition from the First to the Second Republic. Finally, thanks to Antonio Scurati, the author of M. Il figlio del secolo, M. L'uomo della provvidenza, and M. Gli ultimi giorni dell'Europa, the historical‐documentary‐novel has become a perfect tool for a critical analysis of collective memory in Italy. The thesis of this article is that Scurati manages to rediscuss the ways and forms of the historical memory of fascism because he uses an innovative form of counterfactual narration: the implicit uchrony.

Published: May 2023

AbstractPolyphenol oxidation is a chemical process impairing food freshness and other desirable qualities, which has become a serious problem in fruit and vegetable processing industry. It is crucial to understand the mechanisms involved in these detrimental alterations. o‐Quinones are primarily generated by polyphenols with di/tri‐phenolic groups through enzymatic oxidation and/or auto‐oxidation. They are highly reactive species, which not only readily suffer the attack by nucleophiles but also powerfully oxidize other molecules presenting lower redox potentials via electron transfer reactions. These reactions and subsequent complicated reactions are capable of initiating quality losses in foods, such as browning, aroma loss, and nutritional decline. To attenuate these adverse influences, a variety of technologies have emerged to restrain polyphenol oxidation via governing different factors, especially polyphenol oxidases and oxygen. Despite tremendous efforts devoted, to date, the loss of food quality caused by quinones has remained a great challenge in the food processing industry. Furthermore, o‐quinones are responsible for the chemopreventive effects and/or toxicity of the parent catechols on human health, the mechanisms by which are quite complex. Herein, this review focuses on the generation and reactivity of o‐quinones, attempting to clarify mechanisms involved in the quality deterioration of foods and health implications for humans. Potential innovative inhibitors and technologies are also presented to intervene in o‐quinone formation and subsequent reactions. In future, the feasibility of these inhibitory strategies should be evaluated, and further exploration on biological targets of o‐quinones is of great necessity.

AbstractObjectivesIn this study, we investigated whether SARS‐CoV‐2 stimulates autoantibody production.MethodsThe study included 91 patients hospitalized due to COVID 19, with no previous history of immunological diseases. Immunofluorescence assays were performed to detect antinuclear antibodies (ANAs) and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCAs), along with tests for specific autoantibodies.ResultsThe median age (57% male) was 74 years (range 38–95 years). Autoantibodies were positive in 67 (74%), ANA in 65 (71%), and ANCA in 11 (12%) patients. Female gender (p = 0.01), age (p = 0.005), and Charlson comorbidity index (p = 0.004) were significant predictors for the development of ANA/ANCA antibodies (p = 0.004). Nuclear mitotic apparatus (NuMA)‐like, positivity was the strongest predictor of acute kidney injury (AKI), together with noninvasive ventilation and eGFR (χ2 = 49.01, P < 0.001).ConclusionPositive autoantibodies in a large proportion of patients suggest a role of autoimmunity in the pathophysiology of acute COVID‐19 disease. NuMA was the strongest predictor of AKI.
Comparison of nutrition profiling models for food marketing regulation
Authors: Watson Wendy L. , Richmond Korina , Hughes Clare 
Published: May 2023

AbstractAimRegulation on food marketing to children is a recommended response to childhood obesity rates. Policy requires country‐relevant criteria to determine which foods are eligible to be advertised. This study aims to compare six nutrition profiling models for use in food marketing regulation in Australia.MethodsAdvertisements on the outside of buses in five suburban Sydney transport hubs were photographed. Food and beverages advertised were analysed using the Health Star Rating; three models developed for food marketing regulation: the Australian Health Council guide and two World Health Organization models; the NOVA system; and the Nutrient Profiling Scoring Criterion used in Australian advertising industry codes. The proportion and types of products advertised on the buses that would be permitted by each of the six models were then analysed.ResultsA total of 603 advertisements were identified. Of those, over a quarter of the advertisements were for foods and beverages (n = 157, 26%) and 2.3% (n = 14) for alcohol. Among the food and non‐alcoholic beverage advertisements, 84% were for unhealthy foods according to the Health Council guide. The Health Council guide would permit 31% unique foods to be advertised. The NOVA system would permit the least proportion of foods to be advertised (16%), while the Health Star Rating (40%), and Nutrient Profiling Scoring Criterion (38%) would permit the most.ConclusionThe Australian Health Council guide is the recommended model for food marketing regulation because it aligns with dietary guidelines by excluding discretionary foods from advertising. Australian governments can use the Health Council guide to develop policy in the National Obesity Strategy to protect children from marketing of unhealthy food.

Published: May 2023

AbstractThe influences of barley β‐glucan (BBG) on the physicochemical properties and in vitro digestibility of pea starch were investigated. BBG was found to decrease pasting viscosity in a concentration dependent manner and inhibited the aggregation of pea starch. After the presence of BBG, the gelatinization enthalpy of pea starch was decreased (from 7.83 ± 0.03 to 5.55 ± 0.22 J/g), whereas the gelatinization temperature was enhanced (from 62.64 ± 0.01 to 64.52 ± 0.14°C) according to the differential scanning calorimeter results. In addition, BBG inhibited the swelling of pea starch and amylose leaching. When amylose leached out from pea starch to form a BBG‐amylose barrier, starch gelatinization was inhibited. The starch gels exhibited weak gels and shear thinning behaviors by rheological tests results. The interaction between BBG and amylose led to lower viscoelasticity and texture parameters in pea starch gels. The structure analysis results unveiled that the force between BBG and amylose was mainly hydrogen bonds. Pea starch hydrolysis was inhibited when BBG was present in the system, which was connected with the restricted starch gelatinization. These results obtained in the study would supply insights into incorporating BBG into various food systems.
“Dr ChatGPT”: Is it a reliable and useful source for common rheumatic diseases?
Authors: Uz Cuma , Umay Ebru 
Published: May 2023

AbstractAimIt is inevitable that artificial intelligence applications will be used as a source of information in the field of health in the near future. For this reason, we aimed to evaluate whether ChatGPT, a new Large Language Model, can be used to obtain information about common rheumatic diseases.Materials and methodsCommon rheumatic diseases were identified using the American College of Rheumatology and European League against Rheumatism guidelines. Osteoarthritis (OA), rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis (AS), systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriatic arthritis, fibromyalgia syndrome, and gout were identified by using Google trends for the four most frequently searched keywords on Google. The responses were evaluated with seven‐point Likert‐type reliability and usefulness scales developed by us.ResultsThe highest score in terms of reliability was OA (mean ± standard deviation 5.62 ± 1.17), whereas the highest score in terms of usefulness was AS (mean 5.87 ± 0.17). There was no significant difference in the reliability and usefulness of the answers given by the ChatGPT (p = .423 and p = .387, respectively). All scores ranged between 4 and 7.ConclusionsAlthough ChatGPT is reliable and useful for patients to obtain information about rheumatic diseases, it should be kept in mind that it may give false and misleading answers.

AbstractGigantomastia is a rare entity characterized by diffuse and excessive breast enlargement. It mainly occurs during puberty and pregnancy as a consequence of hormonal fluctuations. We report an unusual case of gigantomastia in a 29‐year‐old woman with a history of personal and familiar autoimmune phenomena. She had autoimmune thyroiditis and several positive autoantibodies, and developed 3 crises of the disease, 1 related to pregnancy (possibly hormone‐mediated), and 2 unrelated to pregnancy in which an autoimmune role is raised based in clinical, histological and laboratory findings. Immunological aspects that may be involved in this presentation of the disease are discussed.
