Authors: Malik Aizaz Ahmad , Muneeb Dilnaz , Khan Noman , Usman Muhammad , Latif Khawaja Fawad 
Published: October 2022

PurposeThis study investigated the impact of servant leadership on project success in nongovernment organizations (NGOs) working in a developing country like Pakistan. A moderated mediation design was employed, and the mediating role of employees' emotional intelligence (EI) and job stress (JS) was tested between servant leadership on project success. Moreover, the study also examined the moderating role of team effectiveness.Design/methodology/approachData were collected from 441 project team members working on different developed projects. Data were analyzed using partial least square-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) technique.FindingsResults revealed that servant leadership exerts a significant positive impact on project success. Also, it is noted that servant leadership significantly increases the employee's emotional intelligence that contributes to project success although it does not reduce JS. However, JS was found to be a significant mediator in the association between servant leadership on project success. The findings also revealed that team effect plays an imperative moderating role in ensuring project success.Originality/valueThe study is one of the very few studies conducted to assess the impact of servant leadership on project success in not-for-profit organizations. The study contributes to the literature and methodology by adopting a holistic approach to investigate the mediation of EI and JS along with the moderation of team effectiveness in the nexus of servant leadership and project success.
Exploring the living experience of shame; protector or persecutor?
Authors: Lilley Kirsty 
Published: October 2022

Purpose
The purpose of this opinion piece is to give voice to the living experience of shame within myself as the author, both psychologically and physically. This is in the hope to increase awareness among others who experience shame and mental health professionals tasked with supporting people in emotional distress.

Design/methodology/approach
The author has written a biographical piece outlining her experiences of living with shame and used rich, provocative and metaphorical language in describing the events which led to this and the impact this has had on my quality of life. The author has positioned shame as a character playing a role in her life.

Findings
This piece reveals the inner turmoil experienced when living alongside shame and the resilience and fortitude needed to understand the role of shame and how it developed. With this knowledge and awareness, the author has found it is possible to move forward in life.

Research limitations/implications
The author has lived through adverse and challenging early life experiences within a difficult family environment. The author has shown that it is possible to undertake a healing journey and to come to an acceptance of shame within my own life and still move forward to create supportive relationships with others and a life worth living. These are often the stories of those people who survive great difficulty and still go on to help and support other people.

Practical implications
The author has found and experienced that loving and supportive relationships give the best chance of healing from early life adversities. The author has also found that shame plays an interesting role as both necessary and painful. Moving forward from the distress often associated with shame is a long journey but one that is possible.

Social implications
The author has aimed to make clear that exploration and education about the lived experience of shame is both helpful for those who suffer and those who intend to help within the mental health professions. Listening to the stories of people with living experiences is vital and plays as important a role as academic theory and learning.

Originality/value
This is a subjective living experience of shame and, in that way, adds to the helpful canon of stories that can inform our understanding of distress and the ability to help. The author has described shame as a character playing a role in her life and belief that this is an interesting way to view this. This piece also contains stories regarding the genesis of shame which are unique to her. The author understands and makes clear that his experience does not necessarily translate or relate to anyone else but stands on its own merit. The author hopes to have much more to contribute in terms of others’ understanding of emotional distress and shame, especially considering its transdiagnostic nature.

AbstractObjectiveTo assess changes in the availability of mental health crisis services in Puerto Rico relative to US states before and after Hurricanes Maria and Irma.Data Sources/Study SettingNational Mental Health Services Surveys conducted in 2016 and 2020.Study designRepeated cross‐sectional design. The independent variable was mental health facility location in Puerto Rico or a US state. Dependent variables were the availability of three mental health crisis services (psychiatric emergency walk‐in services, suicide prevention services, and crisis intervention team services).Data Collection/Extraction MethodsThe proportion and per 100,000 population rate of facilities offering crisis services were calculated.Principal FindingsThe availability of crisis services at mental health facilities in Puerto Rico remained stable between 2016 and 2020. These services were offered less at indigent care facilities in Puerto Rico than US states (e.g., 38.2% vs. 49.5% for suicide prevention, p = 0.06) and the magnitude of difference increased following Hurricane Maria.ConclusionsThere are disparities between Puerto Rico and US states in the availability of mental health crisis services for indigent patients.
“Important for you to be there”: Employee activism and the dialectics of researcher–practitioner collaborations
Authors: Ramirez Manuel F. , Islam Gazi 
Published: October 2022

AbstractThe current study examines researcher–practitioner collaborations in the context of employee activism, a context in which the role of reflexivity and theorisation relate in unique ways. Specifically, we examine the collaboration between researchers and a practitioner sustainability manager, in the context of an ongoing organisational sustainability campaign at a French business school. Within the context of an ethnographic, participant observer study, we examine how the roles of “theory” and “practice” are distributed in dynamic ways, and how, across the study, roles are challenged and inverted, oscillating in dialectical moments which we term “praxis encounters”. We contribute to growing debates around academic–practitioner collaborations by showing how the roles of researchers and practitioners evolve dialectically over the course of a project, how employee activism may be studied using collaborative approaches, and how human resource managers may support employee activism. We call for future research about the variety of such dynamics across diverse contexts.
Know what you don't know: Embracing state uncertainty in disease‐structured multistate models
Authors: Hollanders Matthijs , Royle J. Andrew 
Published: October 2022

Abstract

Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are broadly applicable hierarchical models that derive their utility from separating state processes from observation processes yielding the data. Multistate models such as mark–recapture and dynamic multistate occupancy models are HMMs frequently used in ecology. In their early formulations, states, such as pathogen infection status, were assumed to be perfectly observed without ambiguity. However, state uncertainty is a pervasive feature of many ecological studies, and multievent models were developed to explicitly account for it.

We developed a novel extended multievent mark–recapture model that incorporates state uncertainty at multiple levels of detection. Using a disease‐structured example, both false negative and false positive state assignment errors are modelled at two levels of state assignment—the pathogen sampling process and the diagnostic process that samples are subjected to. We additionally describe methods to jointly model infection intensity to integrate heterogeneity in ecological parameters, such as mortality and infection dynamics, and the pathogen detection processes. We provide code to simulate and analyse datasets with various underlying ecological processes and fit our model to a mark–recapture dataset of Mixophyes fleayi (Fleay's barred frog) infected with the amphibian chytrid fungus (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, Bd).

In our case study, we found evidence for various state assignment errors: the sampling protocol performed poorly in detecting Bd, pathogen detection was highly dependent on infection intensity and false positives were non‐negligible. Incorporating state uncertainty yielded significantly higher estimates of infection prevalence and 4–5 times lower rates of infection state transitions compared to those obtained from a traditional multistate model.

Our results highlight that incorporating state assignment errors improves inference on the ecological process, especially when sensitivity and specificity of the state assignment processes are low. The general model structure can be applied to other HMMs, providing a foundation for modelling state uncertainty in related models. For disease‐structured multistate models, we recommend conducting robust design surveys and collecting samples during each capture event to facilitate incorporating pathogen detection errors.
Fintech business and firm access to bank loans
Authors: Xu Lei , Liu Qian , Li Bin , Ma Chen 
Published: October 2022

AbstractFirms have widely participated in financial technology (Fintech) in recent years. Through a proprietary dataset of listed firms on the Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges, we find that Fintech positively contributes to firm access to bank loans, and such link is stronger among private firms, non‐manufacturing firms or those in regions of better marketisation. Further tests suggest that enhanced trust underlies our primary findings, and that Fintech also positively contributes to loans without collateral, longer maturity and lower costs. In addition, Fintech may effectively curb firm's overinvestment. Our findings may have policy implications for firm investment behaviour and financing activities.

AbstractBackgroundExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has salvaged many people's life during global pandemics. However, ECMO is associated with a high incidence of hemostatic complications. This study aims to explore the effects of the ECMO system on the coagulation system in the healthy ovine ECMO model.MethodsTen healthy male sheep were included. Five received the veno‐arterial ECMO and five received the veno‐venous ECMO. Heparin was infused for systemic anticoagulation and was adjusted according to the activated clotting time. Blood routine tests, coagulation factors, anticoagulation proteins, and fibrinolysis markers were tested at the baseline and every 24 h. After weaning, the pump heads were dissected to explore thrombosis.ResultsPlatelets decreased in the first 72 h and returned to the baseline at the 120th hour. The neutrophils increased in the first 24 h and returned to the baseline at the 48th hour. Factors II, VII, and X decreased in the first 24 h and gradually increased, while factors VIII, IX, XI, and XII decreased in the first 24 h and remained at a low level. The baseline antithrombin was 73.2 ± 14.4% and reduced to 42.6 ± 9.9% at the 168th hour. Pathology showed seven sheep developed thrombus, but no clinically relevant bleeding or thrombosis events occurred.ConclusionsThe study explored hemostatic alterations during ECMO in healthy animal models, which eliminated the confounding under critically ill conditions. The study may provide insights into ECMO hemostatic disorders and aid the design of optimal therapeutic strategies.

SUMMARYBackgroundTegoprazan is a novel potassium‐competitive acid blocker used to treat acid‐related disorders.AimTo compare tegoprazan 25 mg with lansoprazole 15 mg as maintenance therapy in healed erosive oesophagitis (EE)MethodsIn this phase 3, double‐blind, multi‐centre study, patients with endoscopically confirmed healed EE were randomised 1:1 to receive tegoprazan 25 mg or lansoprazole 15 mg once daily for up to 24 weeks. The primary efficacy endpoint was the endoscopic remission rate after 24 weeks. The secondary efficacy endpoint was the endoscopic remission rate after 12 weeks. Safety endpoints included adverse events, clinical laboratory results and serum gastrin and pepsinogen I/II levels.ResultsWe randomised patients to tegoprazan 25 mg (n = 174) or lansoprazole 15 mg (n = 177). Most had mild EE (Los Angeles (LA) grade A: 57.3%, LA grade B: 37.3%). The endoscopic remission rate after 24 weeks was 90.6% with tegoprazan and 89.5% with lansoprazole. Tegoprazan was not inferior to lansoprazole for maintaining endoscopic remission at 24 weeks and 12 weeks. In subgroup analysis, tegoprazan 25 mg showed no significant difference in maintenance rate according to LA grade (p = 0.47). The maintenance effect of tegoprazan was consistent in CYP2C19 extensive metabolisers (p = 0.76). Increases in serum gastrin were not higher in tegoprazan‐treated than lansoprazole‐treated patients.ConclusionsTegoprazan 25 mg was non‐inferior to lansoprazole 15 mg in maintenance of healing of mild EE. In this study, tegoprazan had a similar safety profile to lansoprazole.
Static penetration assessment of stone weapon tip geometry metrics and comparison of static and dynamic penetration depths
Authors: Sitton Jase , Stenzel Christopher , Buchanan Briggs , Eren Metin I. , Story Brett 
Published: October 2022

AbstractMany factors governed the penetration efficacy of prehistoric projectile weaponry. Archaeologists broadly focus their efforts on understanding the effect of stone weapon tips because these specimens are often the only part of the weapon system that survives in the archaeological record. The tip cross‐sectional area (TCSA) and perimeter (TCSP) of stone weapon tips have been shown to correlate with target penetration depth. Here, using results from both static and dynamic penetration testing, we compare TCSA and TCSP against other tip geometry metrics: lateral surface area (LSA) and volume (V). Our analyses broadly show that using a single‐point geometry metric evaluated at multiple locations along the length of the point, or using multiple geometry metrics evaluated at a single location, better predicts required energy than using a single‐point geometry metric evaluated at a single location. Our results also show that in the case where a single geometry metric evaluated at multiple locations is used LSA provided the most robust prediction models. Finally, our results show that for the case where all geometry metrics evaluated at a single location are used the location that provides the most robust prediction model is dependent on how far the point penetrated the target.
Rejoinder to “Instrumented Difference-in-Differences”
Authors: Ye Ting , Ertefaie Ashkan , Flory James , Hennessy Sean , Small Dylan S. 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
We thank all the discussants for the careful reading and insightful comments. In our rejoinder, we extend the discussion of how the assumptions of instrumented difference-in-differences (iDID) compare to the assumptions of the standard instrumental variable method. We also make additional comments on how iDID is related to the fuzzy DID. We highlight future research directions to enhance the utility of iDID, including extensions to adjust for covariate shift in two-sample iDID design, and generalization of iDID to multiple time points and a multi-valued instrumental variable for DID.
Marginal Proportional Hazards Models for Clustered Interval-Censored Data with Time-Dependent Covariates
Authors: Cook Kaitlyn , Lu Wenbin , Wang Rui 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
The Botswana Combination Prevention Project was a cluster-randomized HIV prevention trial whose follow-up period coincided with Botswana's national adoption of a universal test and treat strategy for HIV management. Of interest is whether, and to what extent, this change in policy modified the preventative effects of the study intervention. To address such questions, we adopt a stratified proportional hazards model for clustered interval-censored data with time-dependent covariates and develop a composite expectation maximization algorithm that facilitates estimation of model parameters without placing parametric assumptions on either the baseline hazard functions or the within-cluster dependence structure. We show that the resulting estimators for the regression parameters are consistent and asymptotically normal. We also propose and provide theoretical justification for the use of the profile composite likelihood function to construct a robust sandwich estimator for the variance. We characterize the finite-sample performance and robustness of these estimators through extensive simulation studies. Finally, we conclude by applying this stratified proportional hazards model to a re-analysis of the Botswana Combination Prevention Project, with the national adoption of a universal test and treat strategy now modeled as a time-dependent covariate.
Improved Semiparametric Estimation of the Proportional Rate Model with Recurrent Event Data
Authors: Huang Ming-Yueh , Huang Chiung-Yu 
Published: October 2022

AbstractOwing to its robustness properties, marginal interpretations, and ease of implementation, the pseudo-partial likelihood method proposed in the seminal papers of Pepe and Cai and Lin et al. has become the default approach for analyzing recurrent event data with Cox-type proportional rate models. However, the construction of the pseudo-partial score function ignores the dependency among recurrent events and thus can be inefficient. An attempt to investigate the asymptotic efficiency of weighted pseudo-partial likelihood estimation found that the optimal weight function involves the unknown variance–covariance process of the recurrent event process and may not have closed-form expression. Thus, instead of deriving the optimal weights, we propose to combine a system of pre-specified weighted pseudo-partial score equations via the generalized method of moments and empirical likelihood estimation. We show that a substantial efficiency gain can be easily achieved without imposing additional model assumptions. More importantly, the proposed estimation procedures can be implemented with existing software. Theoretical and numerical analyses show that the empirical likelihood estimator is more appealing than the generalized method of moments estimator when the sample size is sufficiently large. An analysis of readmission risk in colorectal cancer patients is presented to illustrate the proposed methodology.
Disseminated papular variant of Dowling‐Degos disease: Histopathological features in POGLUT1 mutation
Authors: Papadopoulou Katharina , Karsai Syrus , Böer‐Auer Almut 
Published: October 2022

SummaryDowling‐Degos disease is a rare benign genodermatosis. It is characterized by lentiginous hyperpigmentation and reddish‐brown papules and plaques. The flexor sides and intertrigines are often affected, but the clinical appearance may vary. Mutations in different genes are responsible for the clinical manifestation. While mutations in the keratin 5 (KRT5) gene favor a reticular distribution pattern, mutations in the POGLUT1 gene lead to a disseminated, papular clinical picture. Acantholytic variants of Dowling‐Degos disease have historically been referred to as Galli‐Galli disease, but our case study shows that the histopathological changes can vary even within a single patient. To date, no standardized therapy concept exists. The main focus is on keratolytic measures, with varying response. New therapeutic approaches using laser technology appear to be a promising treatment option.
Children's associations between space and pitch are differentially shaped by language
Authors: Dolscheid Sarah , Çelik Simge , Erkan Hasan , Küntay Aylin , Majid Asifa 
Published: October 2022

AbstractMusical properties, such as auditory pitch, are not expressed in the same way across cultures. In some languages, pitch is expressed in terms of spatial height (high vs. low), whereas others rely on thickness vocabulary (thick = low frequency vs. thin = high frequency). We investigated how children represent pitch in the face of this variable linguistic input by examining the developmental trajectory of linguistic and non‐linguistic space‐pitch associations in children who acquire Dutch (a height‐pitch language) or Turkish (a thickness‐pitch language). Five‐year‐olds, 7‐year‐olds, 9‐year‐olds, and 11‐year‐olds were tested for their understanding of pitch terminology and their associations of spatial dimensions with auditory pitch when no language was used. Across tasks, thickness‐pitch associations were more robust than height‐pitch associations. This was true for Turkish children, and also Dutch children not exposed to thickness‐pitch vocabulary. Height‐pitch associations, on the other hand, were not reliable—not even in Dutch‐speaking children until age 11—the age when they demonstrated full comprehension of height‐pitch terminology. Moreover, Turkish‐speaking children reversed height‐pitch associations. Taken together, these findings suggest thickness‐pitch associations are acquired in similar ways by children from different cultures, but the acquisition of height‐pitch associations is more susceptible to linguistic input. Overall, then, despite cross‐cultural stability in some components, there is variation in how children come to represent musical pitch, one of the building blocks of music.Research Highlights
Children from diverse cultures differ in their understanding of music vocabulary and in their nonlinguistic associations between spatial dimensions and auditory pitch.
Height‐pitch mappings are acquired late and require additional scaffolding from language, whereas thickness‐pitch mappings are acquired early and are less susceptible to language input.
Space‐pitch mappings are not static from birth to adulthood, but change over development, suggesting music cognition is shaped by cross‐cultural experience.
