“You’re changing the pattern”: cognitive analytic team formulation with learning disabilities care staff
Authors: Russell Rowena B. , Theodore Kate , Lloyd Julie 
Published: January 2022

Purpose
This study aims to explore how care staff working with people with learning disabilities experienced psychologist-facilitated team formulation sessions in a cognitive analytic style (contextual reformulation).

Design/methodology/approach
Eleven participants attended at least one contextual reformulation session regarding a client their team referred because of challenging behaviour. Post-intervention semi-structured interviews were analysed using qualitative inductive thematic analysis.

Findings
Five themes were developed: multiple roles and functions of sessions and clinicians; challenging behaviour in relationship; making links – understanding can be enlightening, containing and practical; the process of developing a shared understanding and approach; and caught between two perspectives. Findings suggested contextual reformulation helped staff see challenging behaviour as relational, provided them with the space to reflect on their emotions and relate compassionately to themselves and others, and ultimately helped them to focus their interventions on understanding and relationally managing rather than acting to reduce behaviour.

Research limitations/implications
Qualitative methodology allows no causal inferences to be made. Ten of 11 participants were female.

Originality/value
This qualitative study adds to the limited research base on team formulation in learning disabilities settings and specifically that using a cognitive analytic approach.

Authors: Unnithan Deepa , Pathy Girish S. , Ramanathan Hareesh 
Published: January 2022

Learning outcomes
The case will familiarize students to TEARS model and No TEARS approach for brand endorser selection. It will enable the students to understand the extent of influencer impact on the brand. It will make students to realistically assess the pros and cons of ambassador marketing using celebrities. It will also enable the student to devise brand strategies to mitigate the risk associated with ambassador-based marketing.

Case overview/synopsis
The case explains the strategic challenge the brand faces in ambassador marketing due to the uncontrollable personal crisis of the celebrity. Brand ambassador is an integral element of the brand persona and is appointed to boost the brand’s unique proposition and sales. The selection of the brand ambassador is a strategic decision with direct implication on the brand equity. A strong celebrity–brand congruence is ideal to establish credibility, but it can backfire if anything negative occurs on either side. This case evaluates the crisis faced by Fortune oil which has been positioned as “the heart healthy oil” when its celebrity ambassador suffers heart attack. In the backdrop of the case, the students can analyse brand strategies with respect to ambassador marketing, TEARS model with No TEARS approach for endorser selection and endorser-related credibility risk management.

PHP India: the e-commerce dilemma
Authors: Kamath Renuka , Pawar Nilendra Singh 
Published: January 2022

Learning outcomes
Through the analysis of the case, the students will be able to: 1. appreciate the dynamics in a multi-channel environment especially in the relatively new ecommerce space in India; 2. understand the decision-making process and the impact on various stakeholders in adopting a new ecommerce sales channel; and 3. evaluate financial implications of channel profitability and its implication on the decision.

Case overview/synopsis
Philadelphia Home Products (PHP) India was facing a sales slowdown and was looking at a foray into the e-commerce channel, as an answer for business growth. The decision was not an easy one, as it had implications on existing channel partnerships and the organization. Channel choice decisions had acquired a new dimension with the proliferation of ecommerce platforms and changing online consumer buying habits. It was January 2015 and Nandini Devgan, CEO of PHP India was with her experienced team, who clearly had differing points of view. She needed to put the organization back on a growth trajectory, but how does she balance the various differing views put forth by her team? Was entering the ecommerce channel the best option?

Complexity academic level
This case is designed for use at the postgraduate level in courses, such as sales management, channel management, e-commerce and strategic marketing courses, as well as in executive management programs. The case is relevant from the context of channel management of a Consumer-Packaged Goods company in India, where e-commerce is nascent yet growing. It gives students a practical hands-on decision-making situation, where there are complexities of quantitative and qualitative nature. It triggers a discussion where the chief executive officer (CEO) and her team are facing growth and profitability issues, and have to take a decision on whether or not to adopt the e-commerce channel while managing the existing channels.

Understanding the role of the bring-your-own-device policy in medical education and healthcare delivery at the University of Botswana’s Faculty of Medicine
Authors: Kadimo Khutsafalo , Mutshewa Athulang , Kebaetse Masego B. 
Published: January 2022

Purpose
Seeking to leverage on benefits of personal mobile device use, medical schools and healthcare facilities are increasingly embracing the use of personal mobile devices for medical education and healthcare delivery through bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policies. However, empirical research findings that could guide the development of BYOD policies are scarce. Available research is dominated by studies that were guided by technocentric approaches, hence seemingly overlooking the complexities of the interactions of actors in mobile device technologies implementation. The purpose of this study was to use the actor–network theory to explore the potential role of a BYOD policy at the University of Botswana’s Faculty of Medicine.

Design/methodology/approach
Purposive sampling was used to select the participants and interviews, focus group discussions, observations and document analysis were used to collect data. Data were collected from 27 participants and analysed using grounded theory techniques. Emerging themes were continually compared and contrasted with incoming data to create broad themes and sub-themes and to establish relationships or patterns from the data.

Findings
The results suggest that the potential roles for BYOD policy include promoting appropriate mobile device use, promoting equitable access to mobile devices and content, and integrating mobile devices into medical education, healthcare delivery and other institutional processes.

Research limitations/implications
BYOD policy could be conceptualized and researched as a “script” that binds actors/actants into a “network” of constituents (with shared interests) such as medical schools and healthcare facilities, mobile devices, internet/WiFi, computers, software, computer systems, medical students, clinical teachers or doctors, nurses, information technology technicians, patients, curriculum, information sources or content, classrooms, computer labs and infections.

Practical implications
BYOD is a policy that seeks to represent the interests (presents as a solution to their problems) of the key stakeholders such as medical schools, healthcare facilities and mobile device users. BYOD is introduced in medical schools and healthcare facilities to promote equitable access to mobile devices and content, appropriate mobile device use and ensure distribution of liability between the mobile device users and the institution and address the implication of mobile device use in teaching and learning.

Originality/value
The BYOD policy is a comprehensive solution that transcends other institutional policies and regulations to fully integrate mobile devices in medical education and healthcare delivery.
Perceived social support is greater among food secure Iranian households during the COVID-19 outbreak
Authors: Ezzeddin Neda , Kalantari Naser , Veysi Zahra 
Published: January 2022

Purpose
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has affected many different aspects of people’s lives around the world, including household food security. This study aims to investigate the food security status and its determinants, with emphasis on perceived social support among the Iranian population during the epidemic..

Design/methodology/approach
This cross-sectional study was conducted among 2,871 Iranian adults by social media in all provinces of the country. Demographic and socioeconomic information, household food security status and perceived social support status were assessed by the validated questionnaires. Data was analyzed by statistical package for the social sciences version 22.0, with one-way ANOVA, Chi-square and multinomial logistic regression tests.

Findings
The prevalence of food security among the studied population was 55.2%. The results indicated that perceived social support plays a protective role on food security [odds ratio (OR) = 1.07, confidence interval (CI) = 1.06, 1.09, P-value < 0.001]. Reduced income during the epidemic [OR = 0.29, CI = 0.17, 0.47, P-value < 0.001] and presence of an old person (>65 years old) in the household [OR = 1.72, CI = 1.14, 2.60, P-value < 0.05], were significantly higher among moderate to severe food insecure group than food-secure group. More monthly income [OR = 0.28, CI = 0.13, 0.57, P-value < 0.001] and homeownership [OR = 1.83, CI = 1.22, 2.75, P-value < 0.05] were also predictors of food security status.

Originality/value
The development of supportive strategies which act immediately can protect vulnerable people against the consequences of the epidemic, including food insecurity. Long-term planning should also be considered to improve society’s resistance against such disasters.

Authors: Apprey Charles , Baah-Nuako Bernice Adu , Annaful Veronica Tawiah , Adebanji Atinuke Olusola , Dzogbefia Victoria 
Published: January 2022

Purpose
This study aims to assess dietary intake and prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) among tanker truck drivers in the Kumasi metropolis, Ghana.

Design/methodology/approach
A cross-sectional study design enrolled 212 fuel tanker drivers. Sociodemographic, anthropometric, dietary and biochemical data were collected. MetS was assessed using the National Cholesterol Education Program Expert Panel on detection, evaluation and treatment of high blood cholesterol in adults Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP ATP III) 2005 criteria. A three-day 24-h dietary recall was used to assess dietary intake. Binary logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the predicting factors of MetS among study participants.

Findings
The prevalence of MetS was 19.6% according to NCEP ATP III criteria. The prevalence of obesity, high BP, hyperglycaemia, dyslipidemia among participants were 7.5, 39.7, 37.7 and 57.3%, respectively. The energy intake for 176 (88.4%) of the participants was inadequate. The predicting factors of MetS were age (OR: 1.3, p = 0.04), glycated haemoglobin (OR: 9.6, p = 0.004), systolic blood pressure (OR: 1.2 95%, p = 0.01) and service years (OR: 0.8, p = 0.01).

Research limitations/implications
The current study focused on MetS among tanker truck drivers in Kumasi metropolis, which makes the current findings only limited to drivers of tanker truck within the municipality. Additionally, the 24-h dietary recall could be subjected to recall bias. However, the study is still of relevance as it becomes the first to target such a group within the municipality, taking into consideration the importance of these tanker truck drivers in driving the economy of Ghana.

Originality/value
This study highlights dietary intake and MetS among fuel tanker drivers previously underreported in the Ghanaian population. Findings of this study would inform further studies on lifestyle-related determinants of MetS among other cohort of drivers in other settings within the country.
Dual inoculation of dark septate endophytes and Trichoderma viride drives plant performance and rhizosphere microbiome adaptations of Astragalus mongholicus to drought
Authors: He Chao , Liu Chang , Liu Haifan , Wang Wenquan , Hou Junling , Li Xianen 
Published: January 2022

SummaryRhizosphere microbiome adapts their structural compositions to water scarcity and have the potential to mitigate drought stress of plants. To unlock this potential, it is crucial to understand community responses to drought in the interplay between soil properties, water management and exogenous microbes interference. Inoculation with dark septate endophytes (DSE) (Acrocalymma vagum, Paraboeremia putaminum) and Trichoderma viride on Astragalus mongholicus grown in the non‐sterile soil was exposed to drought. Rhizosphere microbiome were assessed by Illumina MiSeq sequencing of the 16S and ITS2 rRNA genes. Inoculation positively affected plant growth depending on DSE species and water regime. Ascomycota, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Chloroflexi and Firmicutes were the dominant phyla. The effects of dual inoculation on bacterial community were greater than those on fungal community, and combination of P. putaminum and T. viride exerted a stronger impact on the microbiome under drought stress. The observed changes in soil factors caused by inoculation could be explained by the variations in microbiome composition. Rhizosphere microbiome mediated by inoculation exhibited distinct preferences for various growth parameters. These findings suggest that dual inoculation of DSE and T. viride enriched beneficial microbiota, altered soil nutrient status and might contribute to enhance the cultivation of medicinal plants in dryland agriculture.
C‐di‐GMP and biofilm are regulated in Pseudomonas putida by the CfcA/CfcR two‐component system in response to salts
Authors: Tagua Víctor G. , Molina‐Henares María Antonia , Travieso María L. , Nisa‐Martínez Rafael , Quesada José Miguel , Espinosa‐Urgel Manuel , Ramos‐González María Isabel 
Published: January 2022

SummaryIn Pseudomonas putida KT2440, cfcR encodes an orphan multidomain response regulator with diguanylate cyclase activity, which is responsible for the synthesis of c‐di‐GMP, a second messenger key in the transition from planktonic to sessile bacterial lifestyles. When overexpressed, cfcR enhances biofilm formation and causes other phenotype alterations. The cfcA gene, encoding a membrane‐anchored multisensory CHASE3/GAF hybrid histidine kinase (HK), is required to develop this pleiotropic phenotype. Here we show autophosphorylation of CfcA through HisKA/HATPase_c domains and then transfer of the phosphoryl group to an internal receiver (REC) domain. CfcA REC domains are nonessential for phosphotransfer from CfcA~P to the REC domain of CfcR. CfcA~P also phosphorylates the REC domain of CfcD, a second HK encoded in the same gene cluster as CfcA, which negatively regulates the CfcA/CfcR pathway. To evaluate the impact of CfcA domains on CfcR activity, a battery of mutants with in‐frame domain deletions was generated, whose CfcA protein locations were also examined. CfcA membrane anchorage contributes to protein stability and CfcR activation. Salt enhances c‐di‐GMP levels through CfcR, a response which is hampered by alteration of a presumed ligand‐binding motif in the CHASE3 sensor domain. Thus, in P. putida, c‐di‐GMP is salt‐regulated through the CfcA/CfcR/CfcD system.
Clinical applications of point‐of‐care ultrasound in brain injury: a narrative review
Authors: Dinsmore M. , Venkatraghavan L. 
Published: January 2022

SummaryThe use of point‐of‐care ultrasound has increased considerably over the last two decades. It has become a readily available, non‐invasive bed‐side modality for the rapid diagnosis and management of patients in various settings. Point‐of‐care ultrasound for assessing the heart, lung, abdomen, airway and vascular systems is now well established. Transcranial Doppler ultrasound for assessing cerebral blood flow has been in use for many years. In recent years, brain ultrasonography has been shown to be a powerful tool in the rapid bed‐side assessment of cerebral haemodynamics and structural pathology. Brain ultrasound has been shown to be useful in both the emergency department and neurocritical care setting for the non‐invasive assessment of raised intracranial pressure, cerebral autoregulation and diagnosis of intracranial haematoma and other space‐occupying lesions. Point‐of‐care ultrasound is an important alternative technique to routine imaging and invasive monitoring techniques, and results are comparable. Competence is easily attainable without formal radiology training. With technological advancement, applications for the use of brain ultrasound continue to grow. This review discusses the clinical use of point‐of‐care ultrasound in the diagnosis and management of brain injury.
Multiple large cell neuroendocrine carcinomas in the rectum and descending colon presented with liver metastasis: A case report

Published: January 2022

AbstractColorectal large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) is rare and multiple LCNECs have not been previously reported. We encountered a case of multiple LCNECs in the rectum and the descending colon. A 66‐year‐old man presented with anal pain. Colonoscopy showed an ulcerated infiltrating tumor in the rectum, and 0.5 cm of erosion in the descending colon. A biopsy revealed LCNEC in both regions. Abdominal computed tomography revealed irregularly enhanced wall thickening at the rectum and hepatic metastases. Due to the diagnosis of LCNEC, laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection of the rectum was performed. Histopathological examination showed a poorly differentiated, LCNEC in both regions. Immunohistochemical examination demonstrated that the tumor cells were positive for chromogranin and synaptophysin. LCNEC was confirmed, and systemic chemotherapy with cisplatin/irinotecan was initiated. To our knowledge, this is the first case report that describes multiple LCNECs in the rectum and descending colon.
Blaming Kehl: Muslim Turkish Men and their Moral Journey in the Franco‐German Borderland
Authors: Alyanak Oğuz 
Published: January 2022

AbstractGeographical space is more than a Cartesian plane where actors move across coordinates. It has a moral weight that renders each move subject to moral discourse. Yet, rarely does this premise prevent people from exploring spaces that are associated with anything wrong or bad. In fact, we continue to find people in places where they should not be, and doing things that are not just communally shunned but also personally acknowledged to be wrong or bad. Why is that the case? This paper draws on my ethnography on Turkish men who live in Strasbourg and socialize in its German neighbor, Kehl, to examine the role of space in the production of moral and masculine dispositions and practices. Approaching the Strasbourg‐Kehl border as a moral boundary, I examine how crossing the border to Kehl constitutes an integral part of the journey that my interlocutors take in constructing their moral and masculine selves. In this journey, spatial transgressions are not diverted but embraced, and confronted. These transgressions also produce anxieties—mistakes which in moments of self‐reflection lead to regrets. In such moments, two logics come into play: consequentialism and blame. The first builds on Islamic notions of fallibility and nefs, while the latter brings Kehl into the picture as a moral alibi—a space that takes blame for sins. The latter also helps others in the community who fail to prevent men from going to Kehl and transgressing moral boundaries to transpose culpability. In conclusion, I emphasize the need to consider the making and maintenance of masculinities and moralities in conjunction with the lived environments where such identities are formed and performed.
Enhanced growth factor expression in chronic diabetic wounds treated by cold atmospheric plasma

Published: January 2022

AbstractAimsCold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has been proven to enhance wound healing in superficial, chronically infected, diabetic foot ulcers. We aimed to investigate the molecular drivers responsible for this macroscopically observed improvement in diabetic wound healing.MethodsWound exudate was available from each change of dressing within a prospective, randomised, patient‐blinded clinical trial. Specific protein level analyses were conducted via multiplex ELISA for wound samples of a representative subcohort (placebo: n = 13; CAP: n = 14). Expression of fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF‐2), vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF‐A), cytokines and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) were evaluated over a treatment period of about 14 days.ResultsAnalysis revealed increased levels of the growth factors FGF‐2 (placebo: median 46.9 range [32.0–168.6] AU vs. CAP: 113.7[55.8–208.1] AU) and VEGF‐A (placebo: 79.7 [52.4–162.7] AU vs. CAP: 120.8 [51.1–198.1] AU) throughout the treatment period and in head‐to‐head comparison in a daily assessment. CAP‐treated wounds showed increased levels of tumour necrosis factor‐alpha, interleukins 1α and 8. However, the total protein amounts were not significantly elevated. The total protein amounts of MMPs were not altered by CAP.ConclusionsInduction of crucial growth factors, like FGF‐2 and VEGF‐A, and interleukins appears to be an important component of CAP‐mediated promotion of granulation, vascularisation and reepithelialisation in the diabetic foot. These findings demonstrate for the first time that CAP‐mediated growth factor induction also occurs in persons with diabetes, as previously described only in several in vitro and rodent experiments.Clinical Trial registration KPWTRIAL: NCT04205942, ClinicalTrials.gov.
