Jaundice, which reflects increased levels of bilirubin in the blood, is one of the most important symptoms of liver disease and hemolytic disorders. Bilirubin levels can also be elevated in inherited disorders of bilirubin metabolism. Gilbert's syndrome is one of the most common of these inherited disorders. It is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. It is also known as benign hyperbilirubinemia, in which indirect bilirubin shows a moderate course. These patients do not have associated liver disease. In this case report, two cases of Gilbert's syndrome in two siblings in one family, followed up in a family medicine unit, are presented and discussed from the perspective of community orientation, which is one of the core competencies of family medicine.

Firm performance and perceptions of market orientation

ABSTRACT This article investigates the relationship of the internal perception of market orientation by managers and salespeople, as well as the external perspectives of customers, across varying levels of company performance in the context of business-to-business (B2B) interactions. Market orientation was measured on cultural and operational dimensions of intelligence generation, intelligence dissemination, and responsiveness. Performance was measured across quartiles of both actual and perceived performance. ANOVA was employed to assess differences among respondent categories, with Bonferroni post hoc tests revealing significant distinctions between them. Across actual performance levels, managers and salespeople indicated no differences in any measures of market orientation whereas customers exhibited a difference in cultural market orientation. Across perceived performance levels, salespeople and customers displayed differences in all measures of market orientation. Managers, on the other hand, revealed differences in the operational measures of intelligence generation and responsiveness. The research is based on 111 business units of a B2B Fortune 500 company. This study contributes to existing literature on market orientation by exploring a previously unreported area, shedding light on the relationship between internal and external perspectives of market orientation in the B2B domain.

AI-orientation and company climate action: The moderating role of dependency structure and innovation capability

As climate change risks increasingly threaten corporate economic activities, an increasing number of firms become aware of need to take actions and develop strategies for addressing climate change or sustainability. However, B2B companies may face challenges in implementing green strategies because of their close relationships with other partners in the supply chain. Hence, from a strategic orientation perspective, this study explores the impact of AI orientation on corporate climate actions based on the dynamic capabilities view. Using a sample of 4050 China's listed companies from 2018 to 2021, the study employs instrumental variables to examine the impact of AI orientation on corporate climate actions, while also considering the moderating effects of dependent structure and innovation capability. The findings suggest that AI orientation promotes corporate climate actions, and that higher innovation capability reinforces this effect. However, the stronger the external dependency is, the weaker the positive effect of AI orientation on corporate climate action will be. The research outcomes provide theoretical and empirical evidence for B2B firms to reasonably apply AI to achieve goals of environmental protection and emission reduction.

Self-control mediates the relationship between time perspective and mobile phone addiction in Chinese college students.

Mobile phone addiction (MPA) is a prevalent problem among college students, and Chinese college students are a high-risk group for smartphone addiction. MPA has a negative impact on the physical and mental health and academic performance of college students. Studies have explored the influence of many factors on MPA, such as the characteristics of the smartphone itself, the characteristics of the smartphone user, and the environment. However, to date, no studies have explored the protective and risk factors for MPA from the perspective of personality traits. From this perspective, this study explored the influence of time perspective and trait self-control on MPA to identify effective measures to prevent and intervene in MPA in college students. The participants in this cross-sectional study were 526 Chinese college students. They completed the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory, the Self-Control Scale and the Mobile Phone Addiction Tendency Scale using an online questionnaire tool. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the relationships among time perspective, self-control and MPA. A latent variable mediation analysis of the structural equation model was used to examine the mediating role of self-control in the relationship between time perspective and MPA. Various dimensions of time perspective were strongly associated with MPA. Among these dimensions, past negative (r = 0.397, p<0.001), present hedonistic (r = 0.207, p<0.001), and present fatalistic perspectives (r = 0.444, p<0.001) were positively associated with MPA, while a future time perspective (r = -0.200, p<0.001) was negatively associated with MPA. Mediation effects analysis showed that past negative (β = 0.034, p<0.001, 95% CI [0.020-0.051]), present hedonistic (β = 0.038, p<0.001, 95% CI [0.02-0.06]), present fatalistic (β = 0.047, p<0.001, 95% CI [0.031-0.065]) and future orientation perspectives (β = -0.093, p<0.001, 95% CI [-0.123-0.069]) indirectly influenced MPA through the mediating effect of self-control. This study confirmed that a future time perspective and self-control are protective factors for MPA and that past negative, present hedonistic and present fatalistic perspectives are risk factors for MPA. College educators can prevent MPA in college students directly by cultivating their self-control ability, as well as indirectly by increasing their use of future time perspective and reducing past negative, present fatalistic and present hedonistic perspectives.

Cultivating sustainable consumption: The role of harmonious cultural values and pro‐environmental self‐identity

AbstractThis paper investigates the connections between harmonious cultural values, pro‐environmental self‐identity and consumers' sustainable consumption behaviours spanning acquisition, usage and disposal. It evaluates the relevance of Chinese cultural values that purport harmony between humans, nature and society that is, man‐nature orientation, and horizontal/vertical dimensions of individualism collectivism. The results from the online survey with 503 urbanised Chinese reveals these values disparately influence this consumption. Despite the limited direct behavioural effect of these harmonious values, pro‐environmental self‐identity plays an important role in mediating their indirect effects on the five behaviours. This paper therefore extends theorisation of the values‐identity‐behaviour relationship from a cultural‐values orientation perspective. It offers new insights to understand urbanised Chinese consumers sustainable consumption behaviours.

The relations of the Republic of Moldova - Romania in the context of the conflict in Ukraine

The military aggression of the Russian Federation on Ukraine on February 24, 2022 accelerated not only the relations between the Republic of Moldova and the European Union, but also accelerated the relations of the Republic of Moldova with Romania. Although during the three decades of independence the Republic of Moldova had dynamic relations with Romania, the “special operation” carried out by the Russian Federation in Ukraine conditioned the acceleration of the Moldovan-Romanian political dialogue. Today, the acceleration of relations between the Republic of Moldova and Romania are dictated especially by the events in Ukraine, which oriented the vector of the foreign policy of the Republic of Moldova towards the European Union (EU). The purpose of this article is to highlight the main aspects present in the relations between the Republic of Moldova and Romania in the context of the conflict in Ukraine. We also aimed to highlight the main aspects of the Moldovan-Romanian dialogue in the context of the invasion of the Russian Federation in Ukraine on all dimensions: political-diplomatic, commercial-economic, energy, defense, and, including the social dimension. The events in Ukraine conditioned the strengthening of Moldovan-Romanian relations not only from the perspective of the common past, the affinities of race, language and culture, but also from the perspective of the irreversible orientation of the foreign policy vector of the Republic of Moldova versus the European Union.

Corporate environmental and social responsibility: a perspective of human behavior and psychological orientation

Corporate environmental and social responsibility: a perspective of human behavior and psychological orientation

Research on Visual-Oriented Design of Children's Environmental Education

In the development of modern social construction, with the continuous improvement of social economy and science and technology, scholars from various countries have gradually realized that human beings produce a large amount of waste every day, and this behavior will gradually lead to serious pollution, which has become a huge global problem. As the target audience of the environment, children can correctly understand waste separation at the stage of educational activities and design objects with environmental education components, which can not only guide children to realize the problem of environmental pollution, but also establish correct life values. Therefore, on the basis of understanding the current situation of children's environmental education, this paper designs and studies the content and effective measures of children's environmental education from the perspective of visual orientation, so as to ensure that children can establish ecological and environmental awareness and independently participate in practical activities such as reducing waste pollution.

Smart and Novelty Villages as the Quality Place of Virtuality

From the perspective of the recent orientations of virtual geographies, the idea of smart and novelty villages in the context of renovated material rural worlds is conceptualized. The sum of new virtual and new materiality produces virtual and novelty spaces and places, which acquire a precise territorial dimension in the rural policy and politics of smart villages. Smart villages can not only be framed in global smart contexts, but they can also play a fundamental role in de-global territorial horizons as an instrument of resistance to global processes of rural restructuring. The smart political idea or orientation takes shape in each rural community with a different expression in the form of new local materials. The concept of quality virtuality is developed theoretically along three axes: the encounter between smart, novelty and new materials; the smart in the equitable rural community; and the right to disconnection in remote rural areas.

An Empirical Analysis of Green Absorptive Capacity, Green Innovation, and Enterprise Performance: A Green Entrepreneurship Orientation Approach

In an era of a knowledge-based economy, identifying, acquiring, and internalizing the external valuable knowledge is key to the development of enterprises. Given that few studies have adequately evaluated this phenomenon using a green entrepreneurship orientation perspective. The study employs green absorptive capacity, green innovation to access its impact on enterprise performance. Thereafter, a theoretical model depicting the impact of green absorptive capacity and green innovation on enterprise performance was constructed. To buttress the veracity of this study’s hypotheses, a survey of 219 enterprises of the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) and Pearl River Delta (PRD) of China was conducted. The empirical tests support that green absorptive capacity significantly improves green innovation capability, financial and environmental performance of enterprises in the region. More so, the findings of the study are confirmed that green technology innovation and green process innovation partially mediate the relationship between green absorptive capacity and the financial performance and environmental performance of firms. Consequently, enterprises should continuously absorb exogenous green knowledge, integrate green knowledge and technology into product design and production processes, as well as carry out innovative activities in green product development and pollution control, to sustainably improve the environmental and financial performance of relevant organizations over time.
