The data set is a panel of 2,336 SMEs and household businesses from Vietnamese SME surveys during the 2005–2015 period.

Findings
This study elucidates how firm-level resources, entrepreneur characteristics and costs of doing business influence an entrepreneur’s decision to enter, the speed and the degree of formality.

Originality/value
This study provides insight into the origins of an entrepreneur’s decisions to the multidimensions of business formality through the lenses of the resource-based view, entrepreneurship and institution theories.
Development and validation of key antecedents of religious brand attitude: a cross-cultural quantitative analysis using smart PLS
Authors: Jumani Zulfiqar Ali , Muhamad Nazlida 
Published: December 2022

Purpose
The religious-based brands are increasing daily, and different organizations target religious consumers. However, a scarcity of research in developing nations makes it difficult to determine how customers evaluate religious brands. This study aims to develop a model based on Ajzen’s (1985) theory of planned behaviour (TPB). It incorporates the three mediating factors of religious brand attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control.

Design/methodology/approach
A total of 499 (232 Malay and 267 Thai Muslim) respondents were surveyed systematically by adopting the purposive non-probability sampling technique. Empirically three studies with the extended model were tested in a cross-cultural context.

Findings
The results illustrate that the religious brand attitude affects the buying behavioural intentions of Muslims. The analysis found the significant role of Islamic brand attitude and mediating variables. Islamic brand by the customer is the second most significant component after Islamic brand by country of origin. The research provides a theoretical model for the research foundation and a model to analyse religious brands in diverse backgrounds.

Research limitations/implications
Only three different religious brand views were considered independent factors in this study, together with the development of TPB behavioural expectations. The research looked at three different regions in Malaysia as well as Thailand. The research also provides a model that can be used to analyse how various customers view well-known companies and religious brands.

Practical implications
Researchers, teachers and practitioners in the domains of advertising, marketing communications, consumer behaviour and sociology will find this study useful.

Originality/value
The authors develop a novel dual religiosity conceptual model to delineate the sequential nature of religious opinion formation, behaviour and consumption of religious brands. In addition, the authors provide an example using the PLS model analysis as a supporting example.

PurposeAcute and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common and progressive lung disease that makes breathing difficult over time and can even lead to death. Despite this, there is no definitive treatment for it yet. This study aims to evaluate the studies on single and combined herbal interventions affecting COPD.Design/methodology/approachIn this study, all articles published in English up to 2020 were extracted from the Web of Science (WoS) database and collected using Boolean tools based on keywords, titles and abstracts. Finally, the data required for bibliographic analysis, such as the author(s), publication year, academic journal, institution, country of origin, institution, financial institution and keywords were extracted from the database.FindingsA total of 573 articles were analyzed. The number of papers in the lung disease field showed an upward trend from 1984 to 2021, and there was a surge in paper publications in 2013. China, Korea and Brazil published the highest number of studies on COPD, and Chinese medical universities published the most papers. Three journals that received the highest scores in this study were the Journal of Ethnopharmacology, International Immunopharmacology and Plos One. In the cloud map, expression, activation and expression were the most frequently researched subjects. In the plus and author keywords, acute lung injury was the most commonly used word. Inflammation, expression of various genes, nitric oxide-dependent pathways, NFkappa B, TNFalpha and lipopolysaccharide-dependent pathways were the mechanisms underlying COPD. Scientometric analysis of COPD provides a vision for future research and policymaking.Originality/valueThis study aimed to evaluate the studies on single and combined herbal interventions affecting COPD.
The relation between players' motivation, virtual communities and stickiness in augmented reality games
Authors: Zhang Rong 
Published: December 2022

PurposeThe purpose of this research was to explore the stickiness of players' motivation in a virtual community and to explore the important factors for gamers.Design/methodology/approachIn this research, motivation was the independent variable; the virtual community was the mediator; and stickiness was the dependent variable. An online questionnaire survey was conducted, with users of augmented reality (AR) as the research objects. Statistical analysis was carried out using SPSS and AMOS software to verify the research model and research hypotheses, to understand the relation between player motivation and stickiness and to determine whether there were any changes in the virtual community.Findings The authors found that the relation between players' motivation in AR-based games and the virtual community had a significant positive impact. Ingress had a significant positive impact on the virtual community and stickiness, and Pokémon had a significant positive impact too. The virtual community of the Ingress game played a completely mediating role in motivation and stickiness, but the virtual community in Pokémon did not have a mediating effect.Originality/valueThe novel approach adopted in this study enabled us to determine the causal relation between player motivation, the virtual community and stickiness, on the basis of the theoretical framework formulated, and the latter was used to construct a path analysis model diagram. The correlation between motivation and the virtual community, between the virtual community and stickiness, and the causal relation between all three was verified. The study results and conclusions may help companies understand how to use virtual communities in AR games to improve stickiness and motivate gamers to continue playing.
Plant water‐use strategies as mediators of herbivore drought response: Ecophysiology, host plant quality and functional traits
Authors: Carvajal Acosta Alma N. , Agrawal Anurag A. , Mooney Kailen 
Published: December 2022

Abstract

The response of herbivorous insects to plant drought stress can range from positive to negative, and it has been challenging to understand the causes of this variation. We tested whether plant trait values associated with aridity gradients might underlie this variation and how such effects vary between two insect feeding guilds.

Here, we propose that plants trait values associated with adaptation to arid environments would result in positive effects of experimental drought on herbivores, with such plant species adaptively shifting resources away from resistance to maintain performance under stress. In contrast, plants with trait values associated with adaptation to mesic environments would result in negative effects of drought because such species lose vigour and thus decrease their host quality.

We tested these predictions using experimental manipulations in 13 milkweed species (genus Asclepias) adapted to a wide range of environmental conditions and the herbivore performance of a specialist leaf‐chewer (monarch butterfly; Danaus plexippus) and sap‐feeder (oleander aphid; Aphis nerii). We exposed plants to physiologically calibrated species‐specific watering regimes to maximize (100%) or reduce (50%) stomatal conductance and then monitored herbivore performance.

The effects of drought stress on herbivore survival ranged from strongly positive (50% increase) to strongly negative (80% decrease) among milkweed species, but these effects were inconsistent between the two herbivores.

Plant trait values associated with adaptation to aridity were correlated with monarch survival in the predicted manner, such that milkweed species with high water‐use efficiency (WUE) and low relative water content (RWC) increased monarch survival under drought. In contrast, aphid survival was unrelated to arid‐adapted trait values.

Drought‐induced changes in plant quality were negatively associated with both herbivore survivals. Specifically, milkweed species that increased cardenolides concentration under drought conditions decreased monarch and aphid survival.

Synthesis. We demonstrated that the indirect effects of drought on herbivores varied tremendously among closely related plant species and between co‐occurring insect herbivores. We in turn present evidence that some of this variation is explained by plant traits associated with adaptation to arid versus mesic environments for leaf‐chewers but not sap‐feeders and that such effects are mediated by drought‐induced changes in chemical defences.
Review article: Acute superior mesenteric vessel ischaemia: A review of clinical practice and biomarkers
Authors: Deen Raeed , Sia Zhi Kiat 
Published: December 2022

AbstractA patient with acute occlusion of the superior mesenteric vessels resulting in superior mesenteric vessel ischaemia (SMVI) who presents to the ED with abdominal pain and unremarkable abdominal examination risks delay in diagnosis and treatment with adverse outcome. A comprehensive literature search was performed, and the evidence was reviewed. To‐date, there are no accurate biomarkers of SMVI and so, heightened awareness among ED staff and rapidly actioning diagnostic imaging and surgical referral will help fast‐track the patient with SMVI to surgical management. Management of SMVI is challenging and requires ongoing communication. Prompt surgical intervention may help reduce mortality and morbidity in SMVI. SMVI is associated with significant mortality and morbidity. With the lack of accurate biomarkers, diagnosis and management is challenging and requires heightened awareness among ED staff for prompt surgical referral and intervention.

ObjectiveTo compare the efficacy and feasibility of endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT) with appendectomy for treating acute uncomplicated appendicitis.MethodsThis was a prospective multicenter randomized trial in which consecutive patients were randomized at a ratio of 1:1 to receive either ERAT or appendectomy. The outcomes included technical success rate, procedure time, postoperative pain relief, postoperative analgesic use, time to soft diet intake, length of postoperative hospital stay, postoperative complications, and recurrence rate.ResultsFrom August 2013 to December 2015, 110 patients with acute uncomplicated appendicitis were randomized to ERAT or appendectomy. The technical success rate was 94.55% for ERAT compared with 100% for appendectomy. Recurrence of appendicitis within 3‐year follow‐up occurred in 8 patients following ERAT. Postoperative abdominal pain was less frequent with ERAT than with appendectomy (21.15% [11/52] vs 87.27% [48/55], P < 0.001). Soft diet intake begun earlier after ERAT than appendectomy (6 h vs 48 h, P < 0.001), and post‐procedure hospital stay was shorter (3 days vs 5 days, P < 0.001), as was the use of analgesics postoperatively (9.09% vs 49.09%, P < 0.001).ConclusionsERAT is a feasible, safe, and effective alternative approach for the management of acute uncomplicated appendicitis. Compared with appendectomy, advantages of ERAT include no skin wound, organ preservation, reduced postoperative pain, early food intake, quick recovery, fewer postoperative complications, and shorter post‐procedure hospitalization. The unsolved problem related to ERAT is the recurrence of appendicitis.
Twenty‐five years of management research on poverty: A systematic review of the literature and a research agenda
Authors: Stefanidis Abraham , Casselman R. Mitch , Horak Sven 
Published: December 2022

AbstractDespite significant economic growth in both developed and emerging markets, several disadvantaged and marginalized segments of the global population still live in poverty. Recognizing the important role of business in alleviating poverty, management scholars have been increasingly investigating the topic of poverty. Although reviews of the extant literature have provided overviews of select poverty‐related themes, such as that of the base of the pyramid, no one study has reviewed the topic of poverty across the management literature. The present systematic literature review collects, organizes and analyzes several hundred articles on poverty research, published in business and management journals during the past 25 years. The study identifies major themes in poverty research, reveals thematic overlaps among subdisciplines, summarizes adopted research methodologies, and recognizes opportunities for future research. We find that, despite the wide variation of research topics and approaches, the studied themes remain relatively insulated within each subdiscipline of management research. Drawing on United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals, we conclude that, although the number of articles on poverty has increased considerably during the last decade, there are several research niches that future management scholars can investigate to alleviate one of the most pressing global challenges of our time.
Review: Can digital mental health interventions bridge the ‘digital divide’ for socioeconomically and digitally marginalised youth? A systematic review
Authors: Piers Rowena , Williams Joanne M. , Sharpe Helen 
Published: December 2022

BackgroundDigital mental health interventions (DMHIs) have the potential to improve the efficiency, accessibility and effectiveness of mental health services for young people, with the potential to reach socioeconomically and digitally marginalised young people with mental health needs who would otherwise not seek help in person. This review aims to investigate the characteristics, acceptability and efficacy of DMHIs specifically developed for socioeconomically and digitally marginalised youth.MethodKey databases were searched widely and systematically (EMBASE, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, OpenGrey). Final inclusion in this review required studies to evaluate DMHIs specifically targeting socioeconomically and digitally marginalised children and young people through a broad range of research designs.ResultsTen studies, describing seven DHMIs, were included in this review. Studies varied in terms of methodology, population, intervention, outcome measures, technologies used and methodological quality. Qualitative and quantitative results are synthesised across three key phenomena of interest: effectiveness, acceptability and feasibility. Findings suggest that there is moderate but limited evidence supporting DMHIs for improving mental health outcomes among these populations.ConclusionsWhile there is moderate evidence suggesting that digitally delivered interventions can be effective in improving mental health outcomes among socioeconomically and digitally marginalised youth, more high‐quality research is needed in order to determine whether DMHIs can fully bridge the so‐called ‘digital divide’.

Published: December 2022

AbstractNeonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is defined as the occurrence of severe hyperglycemia in infants under 6 months old and may be permanent (PNDM) or transient (TNDM). When diabetes is diagnosed at 6–12 months of age (early onset diabetes [EOD]), the etiology may be monogenic; however, most cases consist of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Molecular diagnosis was determined in a cohort of 35 unrelated Brazilian patients with NDM or EOD based on targeted next‐generation sequencing panel and/or chromosome 6q24 abnormalities. The impact of genetic testing on treatment and follow‐up was evaluated. Overall, 24 patients had NDM: with 18 (75.0%) having PNDM, 5 TNDM (20.8%) and 1 case in which this information was unknown. Eleven patients had EOD. Genetic testing was positive in 20/24 patients with NDM (83.3%) and in 18.2% of cases of EOD. The commonest causes were ATP‐sensitive potassium (KATP) channel genes, and GCK and IPEX mutations (37.1%, 11.4% and 5.7%, respectively). Patients with PNDM due to KCNJ11 and ABCC8 mutations transitioned successfully to sulfonylureas in almost 60% of cases, reinforcing the benefit of performing genetic testing in NDM as early as possible. This report refers to the largest series of cases of NDM (TNDM and PNDM) and EOD in Brazil in which patients were submitted to molecular investigation and in which the clinical impact of genetic diagnosis was also evaluated.

Published: December 2022

AbstractAimsCentral melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) has been reported to induce anhedonia via eliciting dysfunction of excitatory synapses. It is evident that metabolic signals are closely related to chronic stress‐induced depression. Here, we investigated that a neural circuit is involved in melanocortin signaling contributing to susceptibility to stress.MethodsChronic social defeat stress (CSDS) was used to develop depressive‐like behavior. Electrophysiologic and chemogenetic approaches were performed to evaluate the role of paraventricular thalamus (PVT) glutamatergic to nucleus accumbens shell (NAcsh) circuit in stress susceptibility. Pharmacological and genetic manipulations were applied to investigate the molecular mechanisms of melanocortin signaling in the circuit.ResultsCSDS increases the excitatory neurotransmission in NAcsh through MC4R signaling. The enhanced excitatory synaptic input in NAcsh is projected from PVT glutamatergic neurons. Moreover, chemogenetic manipulation of PVTGlu‐NAcsh projection mediates the susceptibility to stress, which is dependent on MC4R signaling. Overall, these results reveal that the strengthened excitatory neurotransmission in NAcsh originates from PVT glutamatergic neurons, facilitating the susceptibility to stress through melanocortin signaling.ConclusionsOur results make a strong case for harnessing a thalamic circuit to reorganize excitatory synaptic transmission in relieving stress susceptibility and provide insights gained on metabolic underpinnings of protection against stress‐induced depressive‐like behavior.
A Bodies‐On Museum: The Transformation of Museum Embodiment through Virtual Technology
Authors: Wang Siyi 
Published: December 2022

AbstractAll activities of the museum—exhibition, education, collection, research, and visitor services—involve the conceptualization of the body and technology related to the body. A museum's accumulated knowledge and its physical form involve not only various views of science and culture but also complementary binaries like inside/outside, collective/individual, and body/soul. The body represents an indispensable, constant, and important dimension in the museum. This paper examines future museum development trends that center on the body, presenting the fundamental role the body plays in museums. Starting from a consideration of how museums realize the presence of the body, this analysis continues through the historical and cultural practicality of physical objects, the social attributes of the body in the museum, and the transformation of present‐day museums through virtual technology.
Metaphors and hermeneutical resistance
Authors: Ney Milan 
Published: December 2022

AbstractIn this paper, I explore ways in which metaphors contribute to hermeneutical resistance, that is, to practices that overcome and/or ameliorate hermeneutical injustice. I distinguish two aspects of hermeneutical injustice and two corresponding kinds of resistance: exoteric and esoteric hermeneutical injustice/resistance. The former injustice consists in unjust harm due to an inability to make one's experience understood to others. The latter consists in such a harm due to an inability to fully understand one's own experiences. In exoteric hermeneutical resistance, metaphors can overcome resistances in others to understand oppressed agents' contributions because of its automatic processing and anti‐deniability. In esoteric hermeneutical resistance, metaphors may highlight common structures in various aspects of marginalised agent's experiences, they can provide means of denoting social properties obscured by hermeneutical injustice and they can exhibit hermeneutical injustice by resisting interpretation. I illustrate these practices through works by Emily Dickinson, Ralph Ellison, Frantz Fanon, Paul Celan and Nelly Sachs. Those examples show the power of metaphors in hermeneutical resistance.
Impact of the tiger‐nut milk co‐product on fibre‐enriched bread processing and storage: crumb structure‐moisture‐texture relationships

Published: December 2022

SummaryThe effect of including tiger‐nut milk co‐product on the bread‐making process was studied. The impact of three wheat flour substitution co‐product levels (5%, 10% and 20%) was tested by comparing to a control (pure wheat) as regards fermentation kinetics and baking phase, as well as their implications on the physicochemical features of breads (crumb internal structure, moisture and texture distribution) just after processing and during storage. The dough fermentation kinetics showed significant differences: reducing maximum height at 60 min and maximum growth rate with an increasing co‐product concentration. However, water retention in baking was the same for them all despite their differences in volume. These facts significantly affected the crumb internal structure, which was successfully characterised by an image analysis technique. Crumb moisture‐structure‐texture relationships were analysed in two different zones of cross‐section bread slices. The results showed how an increasing co‐product level enhanced the homogenization of moisture distribution and hardness across crumb zones, and also reduced the structure differences between them. Moisture and hardness presented high correlation levels with changes in the structure of crumb zones during storage, which allowed the significant effect of co‐product on the crumb moisture‐structure‐texture relationships to be knownin both the bread‐making process and storage time.
