Social Capital in the Performance on Born Global: Systematic Literature Review

The aim of this paper is to systematic literature review (SLR) of the research of Born Global (BG) and Social Capital (SC). This study aims to fill gaps in the literature by discussing scientific contributions and highlighting the main issues with previous research findings regarding the role of SC as antecedents and consequences in BG. This research is SLR from the 94 reputable journals that have discussed BG and SC in Scopus journals published from 2003 to 2020 based on a topic limitation search. This study found a growing body of research on BG and SC, with heterogeneity in methodology, antecedent, and unit analysis. Most BG research has discussed the role of network, capital, and SC as antecedents to the BG performance. This paper found that there were individual firm-level SC resources that could be used as potential tools to encourage BG performance. The literature on BG associated with SC is limited, and there is still no generally accepted model linking the two. On the other hand, for academics and practitioners, this study also offers an opportunity for further empirical studies of BG and SC with multilevel.

IJCM_371A: Patterns of patient self-identification of ailments: A cross-sectional study from tertiary care centers in Mangalore

Background: Self-diagnosis is the process of determining a disease or disorder without seeking medical care. Advances in technology have made it easier for patients to get medical information online, fostering self-diagnosis and doctor cross-examination. The aim of this study is to estimate the proportion of study respondents who use the internet and other sources for self-diagnosis and explore their attitudes concerning self-diagnosis. Methodology: This cross- sectional study was conducted among 186 participants from hospitals affiliated to Kasturba Medical college, Mangalore (Govt Wenlock hospital and KMC Hospital, Attavar). The data was collected using a semi-structured, internally validated questionnaire- consisting of 3 sections: 1) General information of study participants 2A) Questions on self- diagnosis through different sources 2B) On their attitudes concerning self-diagnosis. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 24. Results were expressed in descriptive statistics. Results: This study on self-diagnosis was conducted among OPD attendees and found a mean age of 31 years, with 66.0 % males and 34.0 % females. Majority (98.4%) had media access, in which 67.7% online media for self-diagnosis. Specific diseases like cancer and infectious disease were common search topics (76.3%). One third of the total participants reported they have done online search for ailments related to their relatives or friends. Around 61.3% considered their sources reliable, while 50.5% intended to continue self-diagnosing. Notably, 61.3% made correct self- diagnoses which were confirmed later after the physical consultation with their treating physician, particularly among participants under 25 with higher education. Conclusion: Due to the development of artificial intelligence and internet access, even non-medical people are now searching the media for medical issues. Although there is a growing dependence on internet resources, most individuals still say they trust in future self-diagnosis but still prefer visiting a doctor rather than self-medicating. To educate the public about the risks associated with self-diagnosis and the purchase of over-the-counter medications, community-based behavioral change communication should be employed.

Identification of Alzheimer’s Disease Hub Genes Based on Improved HITS Algorithm

Alzheimer's disease is a severe, neurodegenerative condition that gradually breaks memories, thinking abilities, and the ability to carry out even the most basic tasks. The hub genes of AD were examined in this study. They understand how interactions between proteins and non-protein substances are crucial to understanding how proteins work. Network investigations of protein-protein interactions, in particular, help understand biological issues. This article offers a novel approach to identifying essential proteins using weighted PPI networks and Hyperlink-Induced Topic Search (HITS) algorithm. We discovered the top 10 hub genes linked to AD using a protein network analysis: AKT1, TGFB1, GRB2, NFKB1, PIK3CA, PIK3R1, TNF, IFNG, VEGFA, and TP53. It was discovered by gene enrichment that most gene activities might be categorized as vital to the plasma membrane, including engagement in signaling cascades, G-protein composite reliability activation, and cell contact. The prioritized genes were determined by the convergent functional genomics ranking AKT1, TGFB1, GRB2, NFKB1, PIK3CA, PIK3R1, TNF, IFNG, VEGFA, and TP53. To better understand AD pathophysiology and find new biomarkers or medication targets for AD treatment, these molecular pathways hub genes will be helpful.

Googling “Twitter Alter” and “HIV/AIDS” in the Philippines: An infodemiological study from 2011 to 2021

Introduction: Online “Twitter Alter” accounts have emerged in the Philippines, particularly among its men who have sex with men (MSM) community, including gay and bisexual men. It enabled them to mask their identities, avoiding discrimination based on their sexual preferences, orientations, and behaviors. Given these and the rising use of the internet, Google Trends can be used as a surrogate measure to determine changes in public interest concerning HIV and Twitter Alter. Methods: This study aimed to elucidate search pattern changes and related interest of the online public regarding “Twitter Alter” and “HIV/AIDS” over ten years from July 2011 to June 2021. An analysis of Google Trends for keywords “Twitter Alter” and “HIV/AIDS (Illness)” from July 2011 to June 2021 was done as a surrogate measure of public interest and awareness. Search volumes, related queries, and topics were described and compared. Results: It was found that the search volume for “Twitter Alter” has increased by about 10000% while the “HIV/AIDS (Illness)” search volume decreased to 67%. Conclusion: Online public interest, as an alternative measure to public awareness, has increased for “Twitter Alter” while decreasing for HIV. Given these, “Twitter Alter” may put its users, mostly young MSM, at a more conducive venue for high-risk sexual behaviors due to the higher behavioral control while avoiding public stigma. Nonetheless, the online “Twitter Alter” community may also be mustered in information campaigns for HIV prevention.

The Interest in Betting, Smoking, Alcohol, and Drugs in Malawi: Changing Trends between 2012-2022.

In recent years, the online gambling market has rapidly developed, and betting has become one of the most popular forms of gambling. The aim of this study was to analyse the interest of the Malawian population in terms related to betting, sports betting, alcohol, cigarettes, and some psychoactive drugs through the relative search volumes of Google Trends. Internet search query data related to betting, sports betting, alcohol, cigarettes, and psychoactive drugs were obtained monthly from Google Trends for the period 2010-2022. Comparisons of interest levels in these topics were conducted in Malawi, and correlation coefficients were calculated. In Malawi, relative search volumes for betting and sports betting terms were the highest (average RSVs: 66% and 30%). It was found that from 2019 onwards, the interest in betting and sports-related search topics and keywords increased significantly (p < 0.001). Strong positive correlations were found between betting-related keywords and alcohol and gross domestic product (r = 0.831 and r = 0.901, p < 0.001). A positive correlation was found between betting and psychoactive drug-related terms (minimum r = 0.417, p < 0.01). This study concludes that the interest of the Malawian population in betting has increased in recent years, while interest in psychoactive drugs and alcohol remains high. Gross domestic product is highly correlated with society's interest in betting. It was additionally found that Google Trends can be used as a tool to predict and monitor future risky behaviours, such as gambling disorder.

Exploratory search in information systems: a systematic review

PurposeExploratory search activities are ubiquitous in various information systems. Much potentially useful or even serendipitous information is discovered during the exploratory search process. Given its irreplaceable role in information systems, exploratory search has attracted growing attention from the information system community. Since few studies have methodically reviewed current publications, researchers and practitioners are unable to take full advantage of existing achievements, which, in turn, limits their progress in this field. Through a literature review, this study aims to recapitulate important research topics of exploratory search in information systems, providing a research landscape of exploratory search.Design/methodology/approachAutomatic and manual searches were performed on seven reputable databases to collect relevant literature published between January 2005 and July 2023. The literature pool contains 146 primary studies on exploratory search in information system research.FindingsThis study recapitulated five important topics of exploratory search, namely, conceptual frameworks, theoretical frameworks, influencing factors, design features and evaluation metrics. Moreover, this review revealed research gaps in current studies and proposed a knowledge framework and a research agenda for future studies.Originality/valueThis study has important implications for beginners to quickly get a snapshot of exploratory search studies, for researchers to re-align current research or discover new interesting issues, and for practitioners to design information systems that support exploratory search.

HITS-based Propagation Paradigm for Graph Neural Networks

In this article, we present a new propagation paradigm based on the principle of Hyperlink-Induced Topic Search (HITS) algorithm. The HITS algorithm utilizes the concept of a “self-reinforcing” relationship of authority-hub. Using HITS, the centrality of nodes is determined via repeated updates of authority-hub scores that converge to a stationary distribution. Unlike PageRank-based propagation methods, which rely solely on the idea of authorities (in-links), HITS considers the relevance of both authorities (in-links) and hubs (out-links), thereby allowing for a more informative graph learning process. To segregate node prediction and propagation, we use a Multilayer Perceptron in combination with a HITS-based propagation approach and propose two models: HITS-GNN and HITS-GNN+. We provided additional validation of our models’ efficacy by performing an ablation study to assess the performance of authority-hub in independent models. Moreover, the effect of the main hyper-parameters and normalization is also analyzed to uncover how these techniques influence the performance of our models. Extensive experimental results indicate that the proposed approach significantly improves baseline methods on the graph (citation network) benchmark datasets by a decent margin for semi-supervised node classification, which can aid in predicting the categories (labels) of scientific articles not exclusively based on their content but also based on the type of articles they cite.

INTRA-ARTERIAL CHEMOTHERAPY AS A CLINICAL OPTION FOR METASTATIC COLORECTAL CANCER: CONVERSION OF INOPERABLE LIVER METASTASES TO OPERABLE ILLUSTRATED WITH A CLINICAL CASE.

Colorectal cancer exerts a very high level of liver metastases, even on primary diagnosis, with 80%-90% unresectable nodules. At the same time, the possibility of resection has a significant impact on survival: 5-year survival is 6%-10% without liver surgery and up to 30% upon resection of liver metastases. Finding ways to improve resectability is a topical search for doctors all over the world. One of the promising methods to convert unresectable liver metastases of colorectal cancer into resectable ones is a hepatic artery infusion, or intra-arterial chemotherapy allowing for the delivery of cytotoxic drugs directly to the common hepatic artery via catheter or pump with decreased systemic toxicity and increased local drug concentration. In this article, we discuss the literature data on the impact of intra-arterial chemotherapy on the resectability of colorectal metastases in the liver and present the results of the successful clinical case. The literature shows a positive impact of the hepatic artery infusion on the resectability of hepatic metastases of colorectal cancer. The National Cancer Institute (Ukraine) has its own experience in hepatic artery infusion with further resection of primary-unresectable colorectal metastases in the liver. In our clinical case, a patient with liver-limited metastasis of colorectal cancer was initially inoperable due to the size of tumor lesions and an insufficient residual volume of the liver. Hepatic artery infusion tactics was chosen for this patient. The patient received six cycles of intra-arterial chemotherapy, namely five FOLFOX cycles and one 5-FU cycle, and then met the resectability criteria. Also, it is important to notice that the case demonstrates chemoresistance overcoming, since the patient had disease progression before, following systemically administered XELOX, and the period until readmission of the drugs was less than 6 months. So, hepatic artery infusion can be considered a promising method to convert unresectable liver metastases of colorectal cancer into resectable ones for highly selected patients.
