Introduction:
Halitosis is a term that defines any odor or foul smell the emanates from the oral cavity, the origin of which may be local or systemic. One of the causes of local or oral halitosis is low salivary flow and dry mouth, which is also one of the complaints of individuals with the mouth-breathing habit. The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) and the use of probiotics for the treatment of halitosis in mouth-breathing children.

Methods:
Fifty-two children between 7 and 12 years of age with a diagnosis of mouth breathing and halitosis determined through an interview and clinical examination will be selected. The participants will be divided into 4 groups: Group 1—treatment with brushing, dental floss and tongue scraper; Group 2—brushing, dental floss and aPDT applied to the dorsum and middle third of the tongue; Group 3—brushing, dental floss and probiotics; Group 4—brushing, dental floss, aPDT and probiotics. The use of a breath meter and microbiological analysis of the tongue coating will be performed before, immediately after treatment and 7 days after treatment. The quantitative analysis will involve counts of colony-forming bacteria per milliliter and real-time polymerase chain reaction. The normality of the data will be determined using the Shapiro–Wilk test. Parametric data will be submitted to analysis of variance and nonparametric data will be compared using the Kruskal–Wallis test. The results of each treatment in the different periods of the study will be compared using the Wilcoxon test.

Discussion:
Due to the low level of evidence, studies are needed to determine whether treatment with aPDT using annatto as the photosensitizer and blue led as the light source is effective at diminishing halitosis in mouth-breathing children.

Systemic lupus erythematosus complicated with cryptococcal meningitis: A case report
Authors: Ma Honglei , Wang Yuqun , Liu Junhong , Du Linping , Wang Xiaodong , Wang Yingliang 
Published: April 2023

Rationale:
Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) complicated with cryptococcal meningitis (CM) are easy to be misdiagnosed as neuropsychiatric lupus or tuberculous meningitis due to the lack of specificity of clinical symptoms, which may delay treatment. Through this case, we considered early improvement of India ink stain of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and metagenomic next generation sequences to determine whether there is microbial infection, and gave the idea of empirical anti-infection therapy, so as to make early diagnosis and slow down the progression of the disease.

Patient concerns:
We report the case of a 40-year-old female with SLE for 10 years. Five days ago she came down with a fever and a headache.

Diagnosis, interventions, and outcomes:
India ink stain of CSF in patients with SLE shows Cryptococcus neoformans growth. Combined with imaging findings, the patient was diagnosed with CM. The patient improved after 3 weeks of antifungal therapy with amphotericin B 42 mg/d and flucytosine 6000 mg/d.

Lessons:
The possibility of CM should be considered when SLE patients have sudden headache and fever. India ink stain of CSF and metagenomic next generation sequences should be actively improved in the early stage of the disease to identify whether there is microbial infection, and early empirical anti-infection treatment should be given to reduce mortality.

Authors: Hwang Jin , Lee Yong Seok , Park Tae Hwan 
Published: April 2023

Purpose:
Three-dimensional (3D) scanning-based morphologic analyses of facial structures are becoming more popular in several clinical settings. However, the application has not yet been reported in augmentation rhinoplasty. The purpose of the study is to show the efficacy of the Morpheus 3D scanner for preoperative planning in rhinoplasty.

Methods:
In this retrospective review, 241 patients who underwent primary and secondary rhinoplasty from September 2018 to August 2020 were reviewed. The authors determined the degree of augmentation preoperatively using the Morpheus 3D scanner based on patients’ esthetic needs. According to the simulated 3D embodiment result, the Silicone implant was carved and implanted with closed or open rhinoplasty approach.

Results:
The operation was performed based on the simulated 3D shape, and the patients were satisfied with the esthetic outcomes.

Conclusions:
Morpheus 3D scanner can be a valuable tool for esthetic rhinoplasty planning. This tool also provides preoperative customized patient counseling based on their current anatomic characteristics and esthetic needs.

Authors: El-Qawaqzeh Khaled , Colosimo Christina , Bhogadi Sai Krishna , Magnotti Louis J. , Hosseinpour Hamidreza , Castanon Lourdes , Nelson Adam , Ditillo Michael , Anand Tanya , Joseph Bellal 
Published: April 2023

Background:
Psychiatric inpatient hospitalization is nearly always indicated for patients with recent suicidal behavior. We aimed to assess the factors associated with receiving mental health services during hospitalization or on discharge among survivors of suicide attempts in trauma centers.

Study Design:
A 3-year analysis of the 2017-2019 ACS-TQIP. Adults (≥18 years) presenting following suicide attempts were included. Patients who died, those with ED discharge disposition, those with superficial lacerations, and who were transferred to non-psychiatric care facilities were excluded. Backward stepwise regression analyses were performed to identify predictors of receiving mental health services (inpatient psychiatric consultation/psychotherapy, discharge/transfer to a psychiatric hospital, or admission to a psychiatric distinct unit of a hospital).

Results:
18,701 patients were identified, 56% received mental health services. Mean age was 40 ± 15 years, 72% were males, 73% were White, 57% had a preinjury psychiatric comorbidity, and 18% were uninsured. 43% had moderate to severe injuries (ISS>8), and most common injury was cut/stab (62%), followed by blunt mechanisms (falls, lying in front of a moving object, and intentional MVCs) (18%) and firearm injuries (16%). On regression analyses, Black race, Hispanic ethnicity, male gender, younger age, and positive admission alcohol screen were associated with lower odds of receiving mental health services (p<0.05). Increasing injury severity, being insured, having preinjury psychiatric diagnosis, and positive admission illicit drug screen were associated with higher odds of receiving mental health services (p<0.05).

Conclusion:
Significant disparities exist in the management of survivors of suicide attempts. There is a desperate need for improved access to mental health services. Further studies should focus on delineating the cause of these disparities, identifying the barriers, and finding solutions.
Individuals with intellectual disabilities experiences of the therapeutic relationship
Authors: Parker Sarah , Ward Tony , Baldwin Amelia 
Published: April 2023

Purpose
This research aimed to explore individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID) experiences of the therapeutic relationship.

Design/methodology/approach
Six individuals with ID were recruited who were currently having 1:1 therapy. Semi-structured interviews focused on their experiences of the therapeutic relationship.

Findings
Using interpretative phenomenological analysis, six personal experiential themes were identified. These were labelled as a person-centred experience, the importance of adaptions, “I feel like I know you”, a secure base is offered, change does occur and an overlap of subjective experience. The results indicate that participants’ accounts of their experiences indicated that the relationship was important to them. This research also demonstrated that the benefits and value of involving individuals with ID in qualitative research.

Originality/value
To the best of the authors’ knowledge, exploring the therapeutic relationship from the perspective of individuals with ID has not been previously explored in the literature. This research highlights considerations for therapists working with this population to help them facilitate positive therapeutic outcomes.
Halcyon and on and on: an exploratory study of online collections of computer games
Authors: Cross Keenan 
Published: April 2023

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to survey the landscape of online collections of digital games.Design/methodology/approachFirst, the study identifies existing sites hosting collections and criteria that make a collection valuable for research, then it reports on sites that fit the criteria and analyzes trends.FindingsMost sites provide simple binary downloads, but some choose encapsulation. Common metadata terms consistently include genre, year of release and publisher. Most sites claim the right to provide their collections as “abandonware,” but remove games if they are asked to.Research limitations/implicationsThis study was conducted using a very limited subcategory of digital games, which could be expanded in other studies. Future research may require a multilingual team to account for collections based in non–English-speaking countries. Direct communication with sites’ management may be valuable in the future as well, but was not conducted in this study.Practical implicationsThe study identifies practices that have developed organically in this field without any guiding standards. Understanding these may aid in Humanities research into digital games, as well as potential collection development in the future.Social implicationsDigital games are increasingly important as cultural artifacts, and there is a growing effort to preserve them for the future, but there are no standards for collecting and providing them. Understanding how this is currently done can help in providing access into the future for both casual and analytical use.Originality/valueWhile game preservation is a growing and active field of research, no study has been published in recent years on this particular subject. It will be valuable for the development of future collections and for research using current ones.
IFRS 9 and earnings management: the case of European commercial banks
Authors: Nnadi Matthias , Keskudee Atis , Amaewhule Wey 
Published: April 2023

Purpose
This paper examines the impact of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) 9 on earnings management (EM) using data from 2011 to 2019 of 100 commercial banks in Europe.

Design/methodology/approach
Using data from 2011 to 2019 of 100 commercial banks in Europe, the authors conducted several empirical investigations to test the mediating role of IFRS 9 on earnings manipulation through loan loss provision (LLP) by banks.

Findings
The result shows that the new accounting standards (IFRS 9) significantly affect the way banks report LLP. This paper provides evidence that non-listed banks in the EU engage in EM through LLP following IFRS 9 but experience less volatility of net income following the adoption. The findings indicate that such behaviour by banks cannot be suppressed by level of audit quality; suggesting that an improvement in accounting standards might not always guarantee accounting quality.

Originality/value
This finding has some policy implications; and regulators will need to identify additional tools to regulate or supervise EM behaviour.
Linking customer mistreatment to employees’ helping behaviour: a self-efficacy perspective of autonomous and dependent helping
Authors: Wu Haibo , Chen Mengsang , Wang Xiaohui 
Published: April 2023

Purpose
Drawing on the self-cognitive theory, this study aims to propose a conceptual model that links customer mistreatment with different types of helping behaviors through the self-efficacy mechanism.

Design/methodology/approach
The empirical analysis made use of the original data of three hotels located in southern China. The authors tested the hypotheses with a three-wave survey of a sample of 430 frontline workers in 95 groups.

Findings
Customer mistreatment may reduce employees’ self-efficacy, which has both positive and negative effects depending on the type of helping. Moreover, the coworkers’ supporting climate buffered the influence of self-efficacy on autonomous and dependent helping.

Originality/value
The authors resolve the ambiguity surrounding customer mistreatment-helping and self-efficacy-helping relations. Thus, the authors extend the knowledge on the influence of customer mistreatment and self-efficacy on helping behaviors by establishing that both positive and negative effects may exist depending on the type of helping. Moreover, this study identifies the predictive role of self-efficacy in autonomous and dependent helping.
Does value co-creation matter? Assessing consumer responses in the sharing economy
Authors: Nadeem Waqar , Salo Jari 
Published: April 2023

PurposeThe sharing economy has evolved as a result of the diffusion of information and communication technology and facilitates collaborative consumption and production otherwise known as value co-creation. The present research aims to explore the consumer responses to value co-creation in sharing economy such as satisfaction, brand preference and enduring buyer–platform relationships, amid consumer's CSR concerns.Design/methodology/approachDrawing on the sharing economy and value co-creation literature and rooted in the stimulus-organism-response framework, an online panel data provider was employed to recruit 393 actual sharing economy consumers from the United States. Empirical analyses are performed using structural equation modeling through Amos, version.27.FindingsFindings confirm that value co-creation intentions contribute to consumers' satisfaction, brand preference and sustainable social relationships in the sharing economy. As expected, heightened concerns of corporate social responsibility (CSR) led to decreased consumer satisfaction with the sharing economy platform.Originality/valueThe study contributes to the digital sharing economy literature by emphasizing the role of CSR perceptions for building long-term relationships (buyer–platform relationships) where value co-creation is crucial.
Abusive behaviors: long-term forced quarantine and intimate partner violence during Covid-19 outbreak
Authors: Hosain Md Sajjad , Jakia Umma 
Published: April 2023

Purpose
As Covid-19 became a pandemic, numerous people were forced to stay at home, leading to increased intimate partner violence (IPV) in many countries, particularly in developing and least-developed ones. This paper aims to highlight the IPV based on 15 different cases formed from the practical evidence of five developing countries.

Design/methodology/approach
The authors interviewed 15 women from five countries who were the victims of IPV during the early periods of Covid-19 outbreak. Due to geographical remoteness, the authors conducted informal telephone interviews to collect the participants' personal experiences. The conversations were recorded with participants' permission; afterwards, the authors summarized participants’ experiences into 15 different cases without revealing their original identities (instead, disguised names were used).

Findings
It was revealed that the women were the primary victims of such violence, particularly from their intimate partners (husbands). In most cases, such IPV, as reported by the interviewees, originated or increased after the pandemic when they were forced to stay at home, losing their partners’ jobs or income sources.

Originality/value
The authors summarized the causes of IPV and put forward a few action recommendations based on the interviewees’ practical experience and existing literature. This paper will open a new window for research investigations on IPV during emergencies such as Covid-19 outbreak.
Fat cats or sociable wolves? Swedish real estate brokers and intrinsic rewards - A quantitative empirical generalization
Authors: Ahlenius Martin , Kågström Jonas 
Published: April 2023

PurposeIntrinsic motivation affects job satisfaction and turnover intention. Still, previous motivational studies among real estate brokers (brokers) have primarily focused on extrinsic rewards, leaving intrinsic rewards/motivation practically unexplored. The purpose of this study is therefore to evaluate the role of both satisfaction with intrinsic rewards (SIR) and satisfaction with extrinsic rewards (SER) on job satisfaction and turnover intention among Swedish brokers.Design/methodology/approachThis article is a replication, more precisely an empirical generalization and extension, of Mosquera et al.’s (2020) study conducted among brokers in Portugal. Using a sample of 910 Swedish brokers, the study analyzes a conceptual framework and tests hypotheses by using partial least squares (PLS).FindingsResults indicate that SIR has a very strong impact on job satisfaction, which is not the case in the Portuguese sample. On the other hand, SER does not have an impact on job satisfaction, which is the case in the Portuguese sample. SIR does not have an impact on turnover intention in the Swedish sample, whereas SER does. Job satisfaction has twice the positive impact on turnover intention in the Swedish sample compared to the Portuguese. Furthermore, job satisfaction mediates the relationship between SIR/SER and turnover intention.Research limitations/implicationsFindings of this study extend the existing literature of satisfaction with extrinsic and in particular intrinsic rewards on job satisfaction and turnover intention in the context of the brokerage industry. The most interesting difference between the samples is that Swedish brokers display much higher levels of satisfaction with intrinsic rewards. On the other hand, Swedish brokers appear to be less driven by extrinsic rewards, which is not in line with prior studies within brokerage.Practical implicationsBoth managers and students planning to become brokers should consider that SIR has a stronger impact on job satisfaction than SER. What are perceived as intrinsic rewards, however, is highly subjective, which is troublesome from a managerial perspective, even more so as SIR is much harder to influence than SER. Given that intrinsic motivation is primarily a consequence of needs fulfillment, screening of applicants for person-job fit ought to increase job satisfaction and reduce turnover given its focus on the congruence between job demands and worker’s needs, respectively, what a job provides and the worker’s needs.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the brokerage research field by indicating that being a broker differs substantially between countries and that intrinsic rewards matter for Swedish brokers.
Company size, online reviews and customer responses: implications for SMEs in the hospitality field
Authors: Ruiz-Equihua Daniel , Casaló Luis V. , Romero Jaime 
Published: April 2023

Purpose
Previous research into online reviews in the hospitality industry has focused mainly on big companies; thus, it is not yet known whether its findings apply also to small and medium enterprises (SMEs), the most abundant in the sector. Focusing on online reviews in the hospitality sector, this study aims to analyse whether firm size moderates the relationship between online review valence and customer responses.

Design/methodology/approach
This study uses a 2 (positive vs negative online review) × 2 (SME vs big company) experimental research design conducted in two hospitality settings, hotels and restaurants.

Findings
The impact of online reviews on customer responses is less intense for smaller hospitality companies.

Originality/value
This study incorporates firm size as a moderator of the relationship between online review valence and customer responses in two hospitality settings, restaurants and hotels.
The reverse logistics resource matrix: a novel classification scheme
Authors: Aryee Raphael , Adaku Ebenezer 
Published: April 2023

PurposeThis study presents a resource framework for reverse logistics operations based on widespread literature and industry experience. A common and comprehensive definition of resources that affect the implementation of reverse logistics is still patchy in the extant literature. Hence, a complete scheme, such as this, for the categorisation of resources that affect the implementation of reverse logistics is essential. This provides a useful information for business managers and extends reverse logistics research.Design/methodology/approachThis study systematically identified, and validated with the help of reverse logistics experts, the resources that affect the implementation of reverse logistics.FindingsThe result is a classification scheme, termed as “reverse logistics resource matrix” (RLRM). This matrix offers a holistic overview of the resources that affect the implementation of reverse logistics for both scholars and practitioners.Originality/valueTo best of the researchers' knowledge, the RLRM is the first attempt to comprehensively structure the resources that affect the implementation of reverse logistics in an integrated framework.
