The July 2024 uprising in Bangladesh highlighted the growing importance of social media in transforming widespread grievances into coordinated civic mobilisation, yet empirical understanding of how grievances, access to platforms, networked connectivity, and global consciousness jointly shape mobilisation remains limited, particularly in Global South contexts. This study addresses this gap by systematically examining the mechanisms through which these factors interact to influence digital mobilisation during the Bangladeshi uprising. Using survey data collected from 260 university students who constituted a central mobilisation cohort, the study operationalises grievances, access, connectivity, global consciousness, and digital mobilisation as composite constructs and analyses them through an integrated quantitative framework. Reliability analysis confirms internal consistency of the constructs, while principal component analysis validates their latent structure. Standardised regression modelling demonstrates that connectivity within online communities and global consciousness are the most influential predictors of mobilisation, together explaining approximately 45% of the variance in mobilisation outcomes, whereas access to platforms and grievances play smaller enabling roles. Unsupervised clustering further reveals two graded mobilisation profiles rather than a sharply polarised divide. Substantively, a one standard deviation increase in connectivity and global consciousness is associated with an average increase of approximately 0.6 on a 5-point mobilisation scale, corresponding to a marked shift from passive to active participation. By quantifying how network embeddedness and transnational framing amplify mobilisation, this study advances theories of connective action and provides empirically grounded insight into the dynamics of digitally mediated collective action in contemporary protest movements.

Background: The paper aims to understand the effect of meteorological factors on the number of referrals and volume of trauma operating cases within our local area. Method: Trauma data was analysed in our database: (eTrauma), a digital clinical platform that co-ordinates all admissions and: trauma theatre activity. Data consisted of number of referrals per day, patient: age, mechanism of injury and type of orthopaedic injury. Weather data was: gathered from a local weather station which: records daily weather observations. Results: 1160 consultations wereanalysed, 779 required an operative intervention. Neck of femur fractures: and ankle trauma were the two most common cause of trauma, accounting for 27% and 15% respectively. Neck of femur fracture pathology were not significantly correlated with any meteorological factor studied. On the contrary, ankle trauma were the only injuries significantly correlating with temperature (p < 0.03) and due point (p < 0.04). Conclusion: Weather has no effect on neck of femur fractures, the most common trauma pathology treated in our department. In all seasons allocated specific trauma lists for the latter should be arranged irrelevant of the weather conditions. We identified the days receiving highest referral rate, using this data to shape the future on call trauma service.

Global environmental and sustainability concerns are increasingly pressuring industries in all developing economies to align their supply chain operations with ecological, social, and economic responsibilities. This study investigates the extent to which Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM) enablers are influencing firm-level productivity in a developing economy, and how effectively the practices of SSCM mediate this relationship. This research aims to determine the extent to which Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM) enablers influence firm-level productivity in a developing economy, and how effectively SSCM practices mediates this relationship. Building on the Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) theory, the research adopts a well-structured design and employs Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to test the designed conceptual framework. The findings show that, while direct effects of enablers on productivity are limited, SSCM practices play a critical mediating role in translating these enablers into measurable performance-based improvements. The study contributes theoretical insights by extending DOI theory into the pharmaceutical supply chain context and offers practical guidance for managers and policymakers in developing economies by seeking to enhance competitiveness through sustainable practices.

This study analysing the impact of executive excess compensation (EEC) that is influencing the quality and efficiency of Organizational Technological Innovation (OTI). Using the Agency Theory, the Resource-Based View (RBV) and Upper Echelons Theory perspective in this study, the study has identified the compatibility of Executive Excess Compensation (EEC) with Organizational Technological Innovation (OTI) and then it has focused on investigation of the relationship between Executive Excess Compensation (EEC) with Organizational Technological Innovation (OTI) and for this quantitative analysis has been done by the usage of a structural equation modelling (SEM) approach by the usage of SmartPLS software. The findings regarding the compatibility of EEC with OTI suggest even a strong alignment between the executive compensation levels and the organization’s innovation capabilities. This indicates that companies offering the executive excess compensation which tend to demonstrate greater innovation efforts that is potentially driven by incentives linked to the compensation structures. Further, the analysis has revealed that higher levels of EEC were consistently associated with the overall greater technological innovation efficiency and to the technological innovation quality which is indicating on a robust relationship between executive pay and innovation performance. The results of this study ultimately provide empirical support for the notion that executive compensation plays a crucial role in case of driving innovation initiatives within organizations which is particularly in the pharmaceutical and chemical sectors of Bangladesh. The findings of the study can give insights for researchers, industry practitioners, policymakers, investors and for academics. However, the study is with some limitation and by acknowledging that further research is definitely needed to explore on the potential areas of improvement on this untapped or unique field.
