“…Das (2018) made a comparative study of consumers’ perception towards the online food ordering and delivery services, namely Zomato, Swiggy, UberEats and Foodpanda. Sethu and Saini (2016) investigated the impact of OFD services among students in India and found online food purchasing services help students in better time management by providing access to their desired food conveniently. Kedah et al (2015) studied the determinants of the customer ordering experience, which include website trust, customer satisfaction and loyalty among Malaysian consumers.…”

“…Customers of online food delivery value ease and convenience as online food ordering eliminated the frustration of bad traffic or weather (Ha, 2013). Although most of the previous researches have focused on online shopping behavior, not much light has been shed in this arena of online food delivery business (Sethu and Saini, 2016; Yeo et al , 2017). There is still a lack of understanding of consumer behavior in online food shopping in the growing Bangladesh market.…”

PurposeThe core idea of this paper was to empirically evaluate the factors affecting the choices of consumers while ordering food online. The goal was to explore consumer behavior in the emerging industry of online food delivery business in an emerging economy, Bangladesh.Design/methodology/approachThis paper used a qualitative and exploratory approach through the collection and analysis of data from a total of 177 survey respondents. Statistical analyses of all collected data (utilizing t-tests and factor analysis) were used to conclude the factors important to consumers in ordering food online through online food delivery intermediaries.FindingsResults showed delivery time, service quality, price and condition of food delivered as factors constitute the first factor considered to be directly affecting the success of online food delivery. Variety and number of restaurants, menu, delivery tracking service and attitude of a delivery person are found to constitute the second factor and considered as indirect factors.Practical implicationsOnline food ordering has been a very emerging sector globally and also a recent phenomenon in Bangladesh. The development and the availability of the internet combined with the busy life schedule has prompted businesses to address another need among consumers, the need to deliver foods at consumers' doorsteps. Understanding the consumer landscape better would help realize the full potential of the e-commerce platform as it can influence the economy, businesses and the quality of life of people.Originality/valueThe online food delivery business is new and growing and demands greater researches for better understanding by academicians and practitioners. This paper expands the limited existing research related to the online food delivery business and explores consumer behavior in the industry. From a managerial perspective, the paper contributes to understanding the consumers more broadly.

BACKGROUND Gastric glomus tumor (GGT) is rare submucosal mesenchymal tumor that lacks specific clinical manifestations and is usually treated mainly by traditional surgical resection. This paper presents a case of a GGT, exhibited both intraluminally and extraluminally growth that was removed by laparoscopy-gastroscopy cooperative surgery. CASE SUMMARY A 52-year-old male presented with epigastric discomfort accompanied by a sense of fullness for 3 mo. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy identified a submucosal lump located in the gastric antrum. Endoscopic ultrasonography identified a 2.4 cm × 1.8 cm lump located in the gastric antrum. It originated from the muscularis propria and exhibited both intraluminally and extraluminally growth, with hypoechoicity on the periphery, hyperechoicity in the middle, and unclear boundaries. Computed tomography showed nodular thickening of 3.0 cm × 2.2 cm in the gastric wall of the gastric antrum, and after enhancement, the lesion exhibited obvious enhancement We suspected that it was a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (glomus tumor and schwannoma were not excluded) and planned to perform laparoscopy-gastroscopy cooperative surgery. Immunohistochemical staining after the operation revealed that spinal muscular atrophy (+), h-caldesmon (+), cluster of differentiation 34 (CD34) (+), 2% Ki-67-positive rate, CD56, melanoma antigen, CD117, discovered on GIST-1, leukocyte common antigen, caudal type homeobox 2, cytokeratin, and S-100 were all negative. The tumor was finally diagnosed as a GGT. CONCLUSION GGTs are rare submucosal tumors of the stomach and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of gastric submucosal tumors. Laparoscopy-gastroscopy cooperative surgery is less invasive and more precise and could be an effective method for the treatment of GGTs.

“…This time discrepancy prior to diagnosis may be a result of the broad differentials, including neuromas, hemangiomas, neuropathic pain, arthritis, and gouty inflammation [1] , [9] . Furthermore, a classic symptom-triad of point tenderness, paroxysmal pain, and cold sensitivity exists, however, complete presentation of the triad is uncommon [1] , [2] , [7] , [11] . As with our patient, she presented with pain and tenderness, but lacked cold sensitivity.…”

Introduction Glomus tumors are rare and few cases are reported in the literature. They typically occur in females on the digits of the hands. Case presentation We report a case of a 30 year-old woman who presented with a mass that developed on the distal tip of her right thumb after traumatic injury. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was conducted and mass resection was performed. Histopathology confirmed that the mass was a glomus tumor. Clinical discussion Clinical presentations of glomus tumors are typically non-specific, mainly consisting of a small mass with chronic pain, with a lengthy time to diagnosis and potentially improper management. MRI is the preferred diagnostic step, followed by curative surgical excision and pathological confirmation. Conclusion Glomus tumors can cause significant discomfort for patients, and clinicians should be aware of the rare diagnosis when treating painful masses on the extremities, as surgical excision is often curative.
