Authors: Yao Jeff , Ravendran Shaji , Zhang Haiyang 
Published: December 2020

Purpose
The purpose of this article is to describe the globalization process of China’s asset management industry.

Design/methodology/approach
This article looks at the globalization of China’s asset management industry from a bilateral perspective. On one hand, it analyzes new measures promulgated in China to expand the opening up of capital markets and attract foreign asset management institutions. On the other hand, it gives an introduction on some advisable choices for Chinese asset management companies to invest overseas.

Findings
With the promulgation of the Shanghai Guidebook for Overseas Asset Management Institutions among other measures that further liberate China’s financial market, 2020 marks an important era for foreign asset managers. Besides, this article suggests that Luxembourg, Ireland and the UK are ideal European destinations for Chinese asset management companies to invest in.

Practical implications
This article aims to keep foreign asset managers updated of new rules regarding financial market liberalization in China and help them to expand business in Shanghai. This article also gives a brief introduction on the fund industry in Ireland, Luxembourg and the UK, to give those Chinese asset management companies which are considering overseas investment some inspiration.

The past, present and future of the non-traded NAV REIT structure
Authors: Roberts David H. , Santucci Ettore A. , Schonberger Mark , Lavigne Peter W. 
Published: December 2020

Purpose
Over 15 years ago Goodwin created the first open-ended, non-traded real estate investment trust (REIT) with regular sales and redemptions at net asset value (“NAV REIT”). While NAV REITs are now well established, there is still room for improvement.

Design/methodology/approach
We traced the evolution of the NAV REIT’s innovative, investor-friendly features – transparent valuation to strike NAV, liquidity via redemption at NAV per share, indefinite life, lower/simpler selling and management fees, share classes with different upfront loads and trailing distribution fees.

Findings
To improve the liquidity feature of NAV REITs, share classes could be used to lower the drag on performance and match available liquid assets with expected redemption requests. The goal: balance inflows and outflows, optimize portfolio construction, and better safeguard liquidity.

Practical implications
One need not look far for the dark side of liquidity in open-ended real estate funds. The UK experience with regulated property funds is a painful object lesson. There is a better way: while traditional non-traded REITs were designed and marketed for investment by retail investors, NAV REITs appeal to a diverse range of investors, and share classes could be enhanced to offer both a menu of selling loads and a menu of liquidity and dividend-rate options to produce a smooth curve blending cost and time.

Originality/value
Innovation in structuring real estate investment vehicles has broadened choices for all and the NAV REIT is flexible, scalable, open-ended and cost-efficient. Fund sponsors, fund managers, financial advisors, investors and even regulators could find food for thought in our analysis.

Telegram: deconstructing one of the biggest blockchain cases of 2020
Authors: Musiala Jr. Robert A. , Harrington John J. , Guillén Teresa Goody , Forman Jonathan A. , Gale Adam D. , Reynolds Veronica 
Published: December 2020

Purpose
To discuss and analyze the facts and circumstances of the October 11, 2019 U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York temporary restraining order halting the distribution of cryptocurrency tokens in SEC v. Telegram Group Inc.

Design/methodology/approach
Provides an overview of the case, an analysis of the Court’s ruling, details on the final resolutions, and some key takeaways.

Findings
Given the lack of judicial precedent in this area, as well as the size and profile of the Telegram project, the Telegram case was closely watched by blockchain industry participants and represents a significant development for this emerging market. The Telegram court’s approach, if broadly adopted, could prove very challenging for those attempting to launch decentralized networks involving blockchain-based tokens.

Practical implications
The Telegram case represents just one court’s view and is based on a very fact-specific inquiry. However, given the Court’s apparent deference to the SEC’s positions on the facts at hand, and the lack of judicial precedent in this area, the blockchain industry should pay close attention to this decision.

Originality/value
Expert guidance from lawyers with extensive experience in blockchain technologies, digital currencies, securities offerings and litigation, investment funds and financial services.

PurposeTo introduce new initiatives in combating money laundering and related corruption in the capital market sector through international cooperation between Indonesia and Australia.Design/methodology/approachThis study used qualitative research methods. Data were obtained through observation, interviews and secondary data analysis. Primary and secondary data were then analyzed with an interactive model.FindingsThe Indonesian capital market is at high risk of being used as a means of laundering corrupt money. Our analysis found a major obstacle when investigators and prosecutors have handled money laundering cases conducted in the capital market because they have not had enough knowledge related to the capital market and its business processes.Originality/valueThis article is expected to add to the literature on handling money laundering from corruption carried out in the capital market. It describes best-practice efforts undertaken by Indonesia and Australia.
Early COVID-19 outbreak, individuals’ mask attitudes and purchase intentions: a cohesive care
Authors: Shah Naimatullah , Kalwar Muhammad Shafique , Soomro Bahadur Ali 
Published: December 2020

Purpose
This study aims to explore individuals’ attitudes and intentions towards mask purchase in Pakistan at an initial outbreak of COVID-19.

Design/methodology/approach
The study is quantitatively based on the cross-sectional data. The data are collected through a survey questionnaire. Convenience sampling strategy is used to target the individuals of Pakistan. At the first, 650 questionnaires were distributed. In return, the authors received 321 raw samples with the response rate of 53.5%. Finally, 316 useful samples are proceeded to infer the final results.

Findings
The structural equation model’s results demonstrate a positive and significant effect of fear of complication of COVID-19, knowledge about COVID-19 and health consciousness on attitudes towards the mask. Further, attitudes towards mask are found to be the robust analyst of mask purchase intention.

Research limitations/implications
The study used cross-sectional data through a single source of data collection. The findings of the survey are on the sample size of 316.

Practical implications
The study would help policymakers to formulate the strategies to make aware individuals regarding their health and COVID-19 issues. The study would provide the guidelines to the government agents of Pakistan to combat with COVID-19 through the purchase of mask. The shopkeepers would be aware to observe the intentions and attitudes of consumers towards mask.

Originality/value
The outcomes of this study offer a shred of empirical evidence for attitudes and intentions regarding the purchase of mask, particularly for developing country settings.
Elementary school principals and informal learning: leveraging networks
Authors: Ringling Josh J. , Sanzo Karen L. , Scribner Jay Paredes 
Published: December 2020

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to understand how and in what ways networking served as a vehicle to informal learning among elementary school principals.Design/methodology/approachThe authors used a multiple case study methodology across a ten-week period, studying six principals and conducting over 50 interviews. Six individual case studies were conducted, followed by a cross-case analysis.FindingsThis study found that a principal’s informal learning opportunities are just as important as formal ones, and often occur more frequently. Principals rely daily on a small network of other principals to informally learn about pressing challenges and situations in their schools. Informal learning allows principals to continually develop and refine their practices without the confines of formally set dates and times. Informal learning happens organically and is needs driven based on what knowledge a principal requires at a given point in time.Originality/valueAlthough formal learning has been a focus in educational leadership research for the past 15 years, almost nothing is known about how principals informally learning. This study adds to the very limited body of research in the educational leadership field.
Cross-cultural conceptualization and implementation of recovery in mental health: a literature review
Authors: Sofouli Eleni 
Published: December 2020

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to review the literature in terms of the conceptualization of the recovery concept among cultural and ethnic minorities drawing on the connectedness, hope and optimism about the future; Identity, meaning in life, empowerment (CHIME) framework; highlight the cultural adaptations of supported housing – a prominent recovery-oriented intervention, as it was implemented in a multicultural western country; and delineate the future implications for research, policy and practice in regard to mental health recovery interventions for cultural and ethnic minorities.Design/methodology/approachAn online search was performed to identify recent empirical studies published in English in peer-reviewed journals.FindingsIncluded studies confirmed what the authors of CHIME had initially reported: spirituality and support networks could act as enablers or inhibitors in the recovery process of mental health services users with diverse cultural backgrounds. The stigma surrounding mental illness is a key challenge that skews the recovery experience. Other cultural-specific factors include linguistic peculiarities of the maternal language and gender. The cultural adaptation of a recovery-oriented intervention was feasible and effective but also challenging.Originality/valueBy studying the cultural variations of mental health recovery, the intention is to inform mental health practitioners and other key stakeholders of the distinct cultural components that influence the recovery process, thereby promoting the development of culturally sensitive, accessible and effective recovery-oriented interventions. It is worth noting that providing culturally appropriate mental health services could be viewed as a human right issue for minority groups.

Authors: Peters RPH , Klausner JD , de Vos L , Feucht UD , Medina‐Marino A 
Published: December 2020

ObjectiveTo measure the frequencies of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and adverse pregnancy outcomes among women receiving either aetiological testing or syndromic management for STIs.DesignNon‐randomised prospective cohort study.SettingPrimary healthcare facilities in Tshwane, South Africa.PopulationHIV‐infected pregnant women attending antenatal care services.MethodsParticipants were enrolled to receive aetiological testing using Xpert® CT/NG and Xpert® TV assays or standard syndromic management. Outcome data were collected at the postnatal care visit (≤30 days from delivery) and from maternity records. Enrolment gestational age‐adjusted relative risk (aRR) was calculated.Main outcome measuresSTI prevalence at postnatal visit, and frequency of adverse pregnancy outcomes (preterm birth, low birthweight).ResultsWe enrolled 841 women. The prevalence of any STI at baseline was 40%; Chlamydia trachomatis 30%, Neisseria gonorrhoeae 5.6%, Trichomonas vaginalis 20%. The prevalence of STIs at postnatal care was lower among those receiving aetiological testing compared with those receiving syndromic management (14% versus 23%; aRR 0.61; 95% CI 0.35–1.05). No difference was observed between study groups for frequency of preterm birth (23% versus 23%; aRR 1.2, 95% CI 0.81–1.8) and low birth weight (15% versus 13%; aRR 1.1, 95% CI 0.66–1.7).ConclusionsAetiological testing provides an effective intervention to reduce the high burden of STIs in pregnant women in South Africa; however, the optimal implementation strategy remains to be determined.Tweetable abstractAetiological testing effectively reduces the burden of sexually transmitted infections in pregnancy.
RepeatProfiler: A pipeline for visualization and comparative analysis of repetitive DNA profiles
Authors: Negm Sherif , Greenberg Anya , Larracuente Amanda M. , Sproul John S. 
Published: December 2020

AbstractStudy of repetitive DNA elements in model organisms highlights the role of repetitive elements (REs) in many processes that drive genome evolution and phenotypic change. Because REs are much more dynamic than single‐copy DNA, repetitive sequences can reveal signals of evolutionary history over short time scales that may not be evident in sequences from slower‐evolving genomic regions. Many tools for studying REs are directed toward organisms with existing genomic resources, including genome assemblies and repeat libraries. However, signals in repeat variation may prove especially valuable in disentangling evolutionary histories in diverse non‐model groups, for which genomic resources are limited. Here, we introduce RepeatProfiler, a tool for generating, visualizing, and comparing repetitive element DNA profiles from low‐coverage, short‐read sequence data. RepeatProfiler automates the generation and visualization of RE coverage depth profiles (RE profiles) and allows for statistical comparison of profile shape across samples. In addition, RepeatProfiler facilitates comparison of profiles by extracting signal from sequence variants across profiles which can then be analysed as molecular morphological characters using phylogenetic analysis. We validate RepeatProfiler with data sets from ground beetles (Bembidion), flies (Drosophila), and tomatoes (Solanum). We highlight the potential of RE profiles as a high‐resolution data source for studies in species delimitation, comparative genomics, and repeat biology.

BackgroundPrenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) has been identified as one of the leading preventable causes of developmental disabilities, but early identification of those impacted has been challenging. This study evaluated the use of infant cardiac orienting responses (CORs), which assess neurophysiological encoding of environmental events and are sensitive to the impact of PAE, to predict later fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) status.MethodsMother–infant dyads from Ukraine were recruited during pregnancy based on the mother’s use of alcohol. Participants (n = 120) were then seen at 6 and 12 months when CORs were collected and in the preschool period when they were categorized as having (i) fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS), (ii) partial FAS (pFAS), (iii) alcohol‐related neurodevelopmental disorder (ARND), (iv) PAE and no diagnosis, or (v) no PAE and no diagnosis. To assess CORs, stimuli (auditory tones and pictures) were presented using a fixed‐trial habituation/dishabituation paradigm. Heart rate (HR) responses were aggregated across the first 3 habituation and dishabituation trials and converted to z‐scores relative to the sample’s mean response at each second by stimuli. Z‐scores greater than 1 were then counted by condition (habituation or dishabituation) to compute a total risk index.ResultsSignificant group differences were found on total deviation scores of the CORs elicited from visual but not auditory stimuli. Those categorized as pFAS/FAS had significantly higher total deviation scores than did those categorized as ARND or as having no alcohol‐related diagnosis with or without a history of PAE. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis of the visual response yielded an area under the curve value of 0.765 for predicting to pFAS/FAS status.ConclusionsA score reflecting total deviation from typical HR during CORs elicited using visual stimuli in infancy may be useful in identifying individuals who need early intervention as a result of their PAE.

Published: December 2020

AbstractThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of surrounding temperature and angle of file access on cyclic fatigue resistance of F6 SkyTaper (F6ST) and One Curve (OC). 120 new files #25.06 were tested at two insertion angles (0° and 20°) at room (20°C ± 1°C) and body (35°C ± 1°C) temperatures in a 16‐mm stainless steel artificial canal (60° curvature and 5‐mm radius), using a customised device. Cyclic fatigue resistance was expressed as time to fracture (TtF) in seconds. Data were analysed statistically (P < 0.05). All instruments exhibited lower TtF at 35°C (P < 0.05). An access of 20° did not significantly influence the TtF of tested instruments, independently from the temperature. OC exhibited higher TtF of F6ST at 20°C with a 20° inclination (P < 0.05). Under the present conditions, F6ST and OC showed a significant reduction of cyclic fatigue resistance at body temperature. A file inclined insertion did not affect the cyclic fatigue resistance of tested instruments at both temperatures.
Tyligma gen. nov., a new Australian genus of planthopper and a key to the Australian genera of Cixiini (Hemiptera: Cixiidae)
Authors: Löcker Birgit , Holzinger Werner E 
Published: December 2020

AbstractA new genus, Tyligma gen. nov., is created within Cixiini to accommodate the new species Tyligma dandavalex sp. nov. Tyligma is characterised by a swollen postclypeus and is closely related to the Australian genera Chidaea Emeljanov, 2000, and Leades Jacobi, 1928, but differs in the shape of the ventral ridge of the aedeagus in males and several other characters presented here. Occurring in the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, Queensland, and Victoria, the genus is restricted to eastern Australia. The species emerges in spring, feeding on native shrubs and small trees of Asteraceae and Myrtaceae and on the invasive West Palaearctic ash species Fraxinus angustifolia. In addition, we provide an updated key to the genera of Australian Cixiini.
Toxicity and persistence of permethrin‐impregnated clothing against the Australian paralysis tick, Ixodes holocyclus (Acari: Ixodidae)
Authors: Panthawong Amonrat , Chareonviriyaphap Theeraphap , Doggett Stephen L 
Published: December 2020

AbstractPermethrin is a pyrethroid insecticide that has been widely used for the impregnation of fabrics to prevent the bites from arthropods such as mosquitoes and ticks. There are two types of permethrin impregnation: Do‐It‐Yourself (DIY) packs and pre‐impregnated fabrics. Both forms have been on sale for many years in Australia, however to date, no data are available regarding their efficacy against Ixodes holocyclus. The aims of this study were to test and compare the contact toxicity of a DIY product versus two pre‐impregnated fabrics (shirt and trousers) against I. holocyclus, and to test the efficacy of the fabrics after repeated laundering. All treated and untreated fabrics were tested before laundering (0 washes) and after 10, 30 and 50 washes. Five ticks were placed onto each test fabric for 2 min, with four replicates for a total of 20 ticks per test. Both knockdown and mortality of I. holocyclus ticks were recorded at 60 min and 24 h, respectively. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the relationship between knockdown and mortality in ticks exposed to each fabric product, before and after laundering. All of the unwashed treated fabrics were effective in causing 100% knockdown. With 10 washes, the percentage of knockdown with the pre‐impregnated shirt and trousers was 95% and 90%, respectively. The DIY product was less effective with only 15% knockdown. The levels of knockdown with the pre‐impregnated shirt and trousers further decreased with 30 washes to 70% and 20%, respectively, and then further declined to 45% and 20% with 50 washes. For the DIY product, knockdown was only 10% and 5% with 30 and 50 washes, respectively. There was minimal mortality recorded at 24 h even with the unwashed fabrics. This study indicated that the pre‐impregnated product was more effective in repelling I. holocyclus ticks than the DIY impregnation pack and the efficacy of this product degrades notably after 10 washes.
