Published: March 2022

Abstract

Introduction
Receptivity to tobacco advertising is an important component in the progression from exposure to advertising to use behavior, yet little is known about current tobacco advertising tactics that increase receptivity. This study tests the effect of three advertising features identified in earlier work as potentially appealing to adolescents and young adults: flora imagery, eco-friendly language, and sweepstakes.

Aims and Methods
We conducted an online survey in which 1,000 US adolescents (age 15–17) and 1,000 US young adults (age 18–24), equally stratified by smoking status, were exposed to three experimental modules manipulating presence/absence of each feature of interest on cigarette ads. After viewing each ad, participants reported their receptivity to the advertisement. Bivariable analysis and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to assess the effect of each appeal’s presence on receptivity.

Results
Adolescents (aOR = 1.55, 95%CI: 1.12–2.14) and young adults (aOR = 1.43, 95%CI: 1.06–1.93) were more likely to be receptive to ads with flora imagery. The effect of sweepstakes on receptivity was modified by the specific ad for young adults. Ecofriendly language did not significantly impact receptivity among either group. Exploratory subgroup analysis found a significant ad by sweepstakes interaction among young adult noncurrent smokers.

Conclusion
These findings provide evidence that use of flora imagery increases cigarette advertising receptivity among adolescents and young adults, while the effect of sweepstakes on young adults might additionally depend on the ad shown. Restrictions on youth appealing advertising tactics, such as those identified in this study, as well as broader content-neutral advertising restriction policies, should be considered.

Implications
This study provides evidence for the appeal of flora imagery in cigarette advertising for both adolescents and young adults, as well as the complexity of how use of sweepstakes interacts with branding in specific ads to predict receptivity among young adults. Because receptivity to cigarette advertising is a documented step in the pathway between advertising exposure and product use, restrictions on use of these tactics should be implemented, and broader content-neutral advertising restriction policies should be considered.

Objective:
To describe risk factors for speech and language delay in a diverse population of children with aural atresia.

Methods:
Retrospective chart review was performed from 2012 to 2020 at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital to identify children with aural atresia evaluated for speech, language, or auditory skills delays. Ninety-five children with aural atresia, conductive hearing loss, and assessment of speech, language, or auditory skills delay were included. Demographic and clinical data were analyzed to identify predictors of speech and language delay. Cohort and case-control analyses were performed to determine risk factors for delayed intervention, and for ultimate delays in speech, language, or auditory skills.

Results:
Children exhibited a wide diversity of race/ethnicity, primary home language, geography, and insurance status. Eighty-nine percent had unilateral aural atresia. Forty-eight percent had delays in speech, language, or auditory skills. Most children used hearing aids (84%), had educational accommodations (84%), and received speech therapy (63%). In a univariate retrospective cohort analysis, public-insured (p = 0.004), non-English speaking (p = 0.002) and non-white/non-Hispanic children (p = 0.007) were found to be significantly less likely to be fit with hearing aids in infancy. Children with delays were fit with hearing aids at later ages. In a multivariate case-control analysis, primary home language was a significant predictor for presence of delays [OR, 3.9 (95% CI: 1.2–13.2), p = 0.03].

Conclusions:
Disparities due to insurance type, primary language, and race/ethnicity are associated with delays in hearing aid fitting for children with aural atresia. Earlier, hearing amplification is correlated with reduced risk for speech, language, and auditory skills delay. These findings can help identify at-risk children for targeted support.

Published: March 2022

A 40-year-old woman was referred for the assessment of bilateral corneal opacities with gradual visual decline over the course of the past decade. Her past ocular history is significant for bilateral amblyopia and strabismus surgery in both eyes before age 5. The patient's parents were told by her childhood ophthalmologist that she had a hereditary disorder. Her systemic review was significant for anal fissure and human leukocyte antigen-B27 ankylosing spondylitis. Her past ocular record revealed corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) of 20/80 in both eyes in 2018 with central corneal haze.
On presentation, her uncorrected distance visual acuity was 20/150 in both eyes. Her CDVA was 20/100 in both eyes with manifest refraction of +0.50 −2.50 × 075 in the right eye and +5.00 −2.25 × 094 in the left eye. Corneal topography reflected keratometry of 35.75/38.97 × 171 in the right eye and 36.45/38.35 × 32 in the left eye. Central corneal thickness was 669 μm and 652 μm, respectively.
External slitlamp examination revealed a central faint stromal opacity inferior to the visual axis in the right eye and a central faint stromal opacity in the left eye, and both were associated with steep posterior curvature of the cornea (Figure 1). Further findings included 0.5 corneal haze with mild guttata, normal irides, and clear lenses in both eyes. Intraocular pressure was 23 mm Hg and 26 mm Hg, respectively (Figure 2, Supplemental Figures 1 and 2, http://links.lww.com/JRS/A543). Gonioscopy was unremarkable. Dilated fundus examination revealed a 0.15 cup-to-disc ratio bilaterally, but otherwise no pertinent vitreoretinal pathologies were noted.
What is the most likely diagnosis? What medical or surgical interventions would you recommend for this patient? What is the prognosis for this patient?

Abstract

Purpose
The aim of this study was to examine balance ability and occupational performance in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and on-medication-state freezing of gait (FOG).

Design
A cohort study with three groups was conducted.

Methods
Seven patients with PD and on-medication-state FOG with optimized pharmacological therapy; seven patients with PD matched by age, gender, length of time since diagnosis, and Hoehn and Yahr stage; and seven controls were included. Outcomes included balance and occupational performance. Nonparametric analyses were used.

Findings
Significant differences were found between the two subgroups of patients with PD in the Timed Up & Go Test when adding a cognitive task, dual-task interference, and self-confidence in balance.

Conclusions
Patients with PD and on-medication-state FOG had lower scores on dual-task interference and self-confidence than matched PD patients.

Clinical Relevance
The assessment and rehabilitation approach for patients with PD and on-medication-state FOG should include balance confidence and dual-task interference.

AbstractSARS-CoV-2 antigen assays offer simplicity and rapidity in diagnosing COVID-19. We assessed the clinical performance of Gazelle COVID-19 test, a fluorescent lateral flow immunoassay with an accompanying Reader utilizing image-recognition software for detection of nucleocapsid antigen from SARS-CoV-2. We performed a prospective, operator-blinded, observational study at 2 point-of-care (POC) sites. Nasal swab specimens from symptomatic patients were tested with Gazelle COVID-19 test and real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-P CR) assay. Overall, data from 1524 subjects was analyzed, and 133 were positive by RT-PCR. Mean (range) age of participants was 34.7 (2-94) years and 570 (37.4%) were female. The sensitivity and the specificity of the Gazelle COVID-19 test were 96.3% and 99.7%. The PPV of Gazelle COVID-19 test was 97.0%, NPV 99.6%, and accuracy 99.4%. In POC settings, Gazelle COVID-19 test had high diagnostic accuracy for detection of SARS-CoV-2 in nasal swab samples of symptomatic subjects suspected of COVID-19.

Published: March 2022

Purpose
Air traffic controllers (ATCOs) play a fundamental role in the safe, orderly and efficient management of air traffic. In the interests of improving safety, it would be beneficial to know what the workload thresholds are that permit ATCOs to carry out their functions safely and efficiently. The purpose of this paper is to present the development of a simulation platform to be able to validate an affective-cognitive performance methodology based on neurophysiological factors applied to ATCOs, to define the said thresholds.

Design/methodology/approach
The process followed in setting up the simulation platform is explained, with particular emphasis on the design of the program of exercises. The tools designed to obtain additional information on the actions of ATCOs and how their workload will be evaluated are also explained.

Findings
To establish the desired methodology, a series of exercises has been designed to be simulated. This paper describes the project development framework and validates it, taking preliminary results as a reference. The validation of the framework justifies further study to extend the preliminary results.

Research limitations/implications
This paper describes the first part of the project only, i.e. the definition of the problem and a proposed methodology to arrive at a workable solution. Further work will concentrate on carrying out a program of simulations and subsequent detailed analysis of the data obtained, based on the conclusions drawn from the preliminary results presented.

Originality/value
The methodology will be an important tool from the point of view of safety and the work carried out by ATCOs. This first phase is crucial as it provides a solid foundation for later stages.
The profitability implications of sales through local food markets for beginning farmers and ranchers
Authors: Jablonski Becca B.R. , Hadrich Joleen , Bauman Allison , Sullins Martha , Thilmany Dawn 
Published: March 2022

PurposeThe Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 directed the US Secretary of Agriculture to report on the profitability and viability of beginning farmers and ranchers. Many beginning operations use local food markets as they provide more control, or a premium over commodity prices, and beginning operations cannot yet take advantage of economies of scale and subsequently have higher costs of production. Little research assesses the relationship between beginning farmer profitability and sales through local food markets. In this paper, the profitability implications of sales through local food markets for beginning farmers and ranchers are explored.Design/methodology/approachThe authors utilize 2013–2016 USDA agricultural resource management survey data to assess the financial performance of US beginning farmers and ranchers who generate sales through local food markets.FindingsThe results point to four important takeaways to support beginning operations. (1) Local food channels can be viable marketing opportunities for beginning operations. (2) There are differences when using short- and long-term financial performance indicators, which may indicate that there is benefit to promoting lean management strategies to support beginning operations. (3) Beginning operations with intermediated local food sales, on average, perform better than those operations with direct-to-consumer sales. (4) Diversification across local food market channel types does not appear to be an indicator of improved financial performance.Originality/valueThis article is the first to focus on the relationship beginning local food sales and beginning farmer financial performance. It incorporates short-term and long-term measures of financial performance and differentiates sales by four local food market type classifications: direct-to-consumer sales at farmers markets, other direct-to-consumer sales, direct-to-retail sales and direct-to-regional distributor or institution sales.

Authors: Ezzi Ferdaws , Salhi Bassem , Jarboui Anis 
Published: March 2022

Purpose
This study aims to focus on the important role of chief executive directors (CEOs’) emotional intelligence to explain the interactive relationship between research and development (R&D) investment and environmental performance in the energy sector and also to explain how the diversification into new energy technology provides explanations for environmental problems.

Design/methodology/approach
This research was realised through the completion of a questionnaire-type inquiry structured around table-based analysis. Two five-scale questionnaires were completed by CEOs relating to oil and gas industry. The first instrument reflects the level of emotional intelligence. The second instrument indicates elements of environmental performance. A total of 158 firms were approached using a questionnaire, where 112 responses were received and 108 valid responses were used for analysis. The data were analyzed by the partial least squares method.

Findings
The results confirm the positive effect of CEOs’ emotional intelligence on the interaction between R&D, energy and recycling. In addition, the diversification strategy further influences the role of CEOs’ emotional intelligence to provide explanations into a R&D investment for the environmental problems in the Tunisian energy sector. The findings reveal challenges and opportunities for Tunisia’s energy industry to increase R&D investment that will enable the economy to use more environment-friendly devices and technologies that will be reducing pollution.

Originality/value
First, this study indicates the important role of managerial emotional intelligence to explain the impact of R&D investment and help Tunisian energy enterprises look for means to minimise their environmental expenses through raising energy efficiencies, reducing pollution and encouraging reuse and recycling. Second, this study explains how a diversification strategy can mediate the interaction effect of CEO emotional intelligence. The Tunisia oil and gas sector has not been subjected to extensive research and this paper, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, represents a first attempt to provide an overview of the sector.
Role of resilient leadership and psychological capital in employee engagement with special reference to COVID-19
Authors: Singh Rakhi , Sihag Priyanka , Dhoopar Aastha 
Published: March 2022

Purpose
The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has led to an unseen crisis lately, which has put organizational leadership and employee engagement (EE) to test. Resilient leadership (RL) helps an organization survive and keep employees engaged in the risky environment. Similarly, psychological capital (PsyCap) is known to exert an influence on EE, but PsyCap and EE have not been investigated together during the period of crisis. To address this gap, the present study aims to outline the importance of RL and PsyCap to keep the employees engaged in the information technology (IT) industry.

Design/methodology/approach
In total, 265 samples of IT professionals were collected by using an online survey questionnaire pan India. The collected data was analyzed using regression analysis, structural equation modeling along with bootstrapping technique for mediation analysis and model fit indices analysis.

Findings
The results of the analysis confirm the positive impact of RL on EE and the partial mediation impact of PsyCap on the RL–EE relationship, and the findings exhibit that employees with a higher level of PsyCap contribute favorably to EE during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Originality/value
This study aims to assist IT practitioners in effectively incorporating RL to plan mitigation strategies. EE is an outcome of enhanced PsyCap of employees. To develop necessary skills and coping mechanisms to combat disruptions of such massive outbreaks, RL and PsyCap are crucial.

Authors: Gomes Luciana Paulo , Caetano Marcelo Oliveira , Brand Susana Margarida , Dai-Prá Léa Beatriz , Pereira Brenda Natalia 
Published: March 2022

Purpose
This study aims to present the environmental management system implemented at UNISINOS and demonstrate some of the main results obtained in more than 15 years carrying out the environmental management of the campuses in São Leopoldo and Porto Alegre. The focus is on the main environmental impacts: electricity consumption, water consumption and solid waste management.

Design/methodology/approach
Sustainable development of universities has gradually become a common practice, as the knowledge shared in the higher education institutions reflects in the behavior of society. In a university, an environmental management system is used to plan, implement and manage processes referring to the environmental, social and economic aspects, so as to improve their performance and comply with legal requirements. For this, national or international standards and/or methodologies can be followed, which serve as a guide for the institution to reach sustainability in a staggered manner, according to the availability of data and resources for environmental management.

Findings
After 16 years of certification, based on the monitoring performed, positive performance was observed, reflecting a better and attentive university, with an environmental policy that goes beyond the borders of the campuses and transmits solid concepts of environmental education to the academic community, under the rigid control of the ISO 14001 tool.

Originality/value
In 2004, UNISINOS became the first Latin American university with an ISO 14001 certification. In 2018, the certification was extended to the UNISINOS Campus in Porto Alegre, capital of the state of Rio Grande do Sul. All the support activities conducted and implemented in the campuses (São Leopoldo and Porto Alegre) follow the same rules implemented by the UNISINOS environmental management system. After the experience of implementing the ISO 14001 requirements, UNISINOS included other normative requirements in 2013, adopting an integrated management system.
Effects of governance on crowdsourcer satisfaction in crowdsourcing: moderating roles of task and environment complexities
Authors: Liu Shan , Guan Shiqian , Zhu Qing , Fang Chao 
Published: March 2022

PurposeThis study aims to explore how relational and contractual governance affect crowdsourcer satisfaction under boundary conditions, including internal (i.e. task complexity) or external (i.e. environmental complexity) factors.Design/methodology/approachWe empirically validate the hypotheses using survey data collected from 255 crowdsourcers on a leading platform (i.e. Zhubajie.com). Partial least squares technique and hierarchical regression analysis are used to test the research model.FindingsBoth forms of governance mechanisms positively affect crowdsourcer satisfaction. Task complexity negatively moderates the linkage of relational governance and crowdsourcer satisfaction. However, environmental complexity weakens the positive effect of contractual governance but enhances the effect of relational governance on satisfaction.Originality/valueThis study deepens the current understanding of governance mechanism in crowdsourcing by discovering the effectiveness of contractual and relational governance. We also contribute to the governance and crowdsourcing literature by revealing the mechanisms of how governance takes effect under task and environmental complexities.
An intelligent control system for robot massaging with uncertain skin characteristics
Authors: Zhai Jingmei , Zeng Xianwen , Su Ziqing 
Published: March 2022

Purpose
To ensure accurate position and force control of massage robot working on human body with unknown skin characteristics, this study aims to propose a novel intelligent impedance control system.

Design/methodology/approach
First, a skin dynamic model (SDM) is introduced to describe force-deformation on the human body as feed-forward for force control. Then a particle swarm optimization (PSO) method combined with graph-based knowledge transfer learning (GKT) is studied, which will effectively identify personalized skin parameters. Finally, a self-tuning impedance control strategy is designed to accommodate uncertainty of skin dynamics, system delay and signal noise exist in practical applications.

Findings
Compared with traditional least square method, genetic algorithm and other kinds of PSO methods, combination of PSO and GKT is validated using experimental data to improve the accuracy and convergence of identification results. The force control is effective, although there are contour errors, control delay and noise problems when the robot does massage on human body.

Originality/value
Integrating GKT into PSO identification algorithm, and designing an adaptive impedance control algorithm. As a result, the robot can understand textural and biological attributes of its surroundings and adapt its planning activities to carry out a stable and accurate force tracking control during dynamic contacts between a robot and a human.
