Published: December 2021

Objective
How the checklist is executed in routine practice may reflect the teamwork and safety climate in the operating room (OR). This cross-sectional study aimed to identify whether the presence of a fully completed checklist in medical records was associated with teams’ safety attitudes.

Methods
Data from 29 French hospitals, including 5677 operated patients and 834 OR professionals, were prospectively collected. The degree of checklist compliance was categorized for each patient in 1 of 4 ways: full, incomplete, inaccurate, and no checklist completed. The members of OR teams were invited to complete a questionnaire including teamwork climate measurement (Safety Attitudes Questionnaire) and their opinion regarding checklist use, checklist audibly reading, and communication change with checklist. Multilevel modeling was performed to investigate the effect of variables related to hospitals and professionals on checklist compliance, after adjustment for patient characteristics.

Results
A checklist was present for 83% of patients, but only 35% demonstrated full completion. Compared with no checklist, full completion was associated with higher safety attitude (high teamwork climate [adjusted odds ratio for full completion, 4.14; 95% confidence interval, 1.75–9.76]; communication change [1.31, 1.04–1.66]; checklist aloud reading [1.16, 1.02–1.32]) and was reinforced by the designation of a checklist coordinator (2.43, 1.06–5.55). Incomplete completion was also associated with enhanced safety attitude contrary to inaccurate completion.

Conclusions
Compliance with checklists is associated with safer OR team practice and can be considered as an indicator of the extent of safety in OR practice.

Authors: Lopez Nicole E. , Nguyen Nghia H. , Hull Tracy L. , Peters Walter R. , Singh Siddharth , Ramamoorthy Sonia L. 
Published: December 2021

Objective:
We sought to understand the effect of sex on compensation among colorectal surgeons and to determine which factors contribute to gender-based differences in compensation.

Summary of Background Data:
The sex-based wage gap in the medical profession is among the most pronounced wage gaps in the U.S. Data regarding the wage gap among colorectal surgeons and the underlying reasons for this disparity remain unclear.

Methods:
The Healthcare Economics Committee of the American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons conducted a survey to evaluate surgeon demographics, compensation, and practice characteristics. To evaluate the effect of sex on compensation, we performed multivariable linear regression with backward selection. We used a two-sided P-value with a significance threshold <0.05.

Results:
The mean difference in normalized total compensation between men and women was $46,250, and when salary was adjusted for FTEs, the difference was $57,000. Women were more likely to perform anorectal surgery, less likely to perform general surgery and less likely to hold positions in leadership. After adjustments, women reported significantly lower compensation (aOR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.80-0.97). Time spent doing abdominal surgery (aOR, 1.13; 95% CI 1.03-1.23), professor status (aOR, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.03–1.32) and instructor status (aOR, 1.49; 95% 1.28–1.73) were independently associated with compensation.

Conclusions:
We found a 12% adjusted sex wage gap among colorectal surgeons. Gender-based differences in leadership positions and allocation of effort may contribute. Further research will be necessary to clarify sources of wage inequalities. Still, our results should prompt expedient actions to support closing the gap.

Published: December 2021

Objective:
To determine if routine completion angiography for lower extremity bypasses using vein conduit results in lower rates of postoperative bypass occlusion.

Summary of Background Data:
With the increasing availability of on-table angiography and significant advancements in endovascular techniques, some operators routinely perform completion angiograms. The effect of this surgical paradigm has yet to be rigorously compared to the more widespread selective use of completion imaging in the modern era.

Methods:
This retrospective cohort study included infrainguinal arterial bypass procedures utilizing vein conduit completed at a single hospital system from 2001 to 2018 and compared postoperative outcomes between bypasses that underwent routine completion angiography versus selective completion angiography. Notably, any bypasses that underwent completion angiography due to intraoperative concerns were excluded from this analysis.

Results:
666 bypasses that were performed in 589 patients met inclusion criteria. 126 (18.9%) bypasses were classified into the routine completion angiogram group compared to 540 (81.0%) into the selective completion angiogram group. Patients who underwent routine completion angiograms had a rate of intraoperative reintervention of 22.2%. The routine angiogram group had lower rates of reintervention (3.9% vs 10.0%, P = 0.03) and graft occlusion (2.3% vs 9.2%, P = 0.01) at 1-month postoperatively.

Conclusion:
Lower extremity bypasses using vein conduit that undergo routine completion angiography are associated with lower rates of graft occlusion at 30-days postoperatively. Completion angiography should thus be routinely performed in infrainguinal bypasses that utilize venous conduit.
Addiction recovery stories: Jerome Carson in conversation with Lisa Ogilvie
Authors: Carson Jerome , Ogilvie Lisa 
Published: December 2021

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to explore the accomplishments of those who realise addiction recovery. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first in a series of recovery stories, where candid accounts of addiction and recovery are examined. In doing so, shared components of recovery are considered, along with the change and growth necessary to facilitate it.

Design/methodology/approach
The CHIME (Connectedness, Hope, Identity, Meaning and Empowerment) framework comprises five elements important to recovery. It provides a standard to qualitatively study mental health recovery, having also been applied to addiction recovery. In this paper, an additional element for Growth has been introduced to the model (G-CHIME), to consider both recovery and sustained recovery. A first-hand account of addiction recovery is presented, followed by a semi-structured e-interview with the author of the account. This is structured on the G-CHIME model.

Findings
This paper shows that successful and sustained recovery from alcohol addiction can be effectively explained using the G-CHIME model. Each element was well represented in the described process of reaching recovery.

Originality/value
Each account of recovery in this series is unique, and as yet, untold.
Assessing design buildability through virtual reality from the perspective of construction students
Authors: Samarasinghe Don Amila Sajeevan , Piri Imelda Saran 
Published: December 2021

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to evaluate the impact of visual models on the ability of construction students to assess design buildability.Design/methodology/approachThe study engaged 45 construction students from one selected tertiary education institute in New Zealand. The data collection process involved meeting the students face-to-face and demonstrating the VR model to them, after which the students completed an online questionnaire and assessed design buildability using both 2D drawing and virtual reality (VR) models. To make this assessment, the participants considered a residential earth building modelled to promote sustainable building features. The assessment process required the participants to evaluate the design buildability of the same building design using a 2D drawing and a 3D VR model.FindingsThe study found that VR models have significant advantages for assessing design buildability. Students measured 16.80% higher average buildability with the 3D VR model compared to the 2D drawing. The participants in the evaluation felt that the visual model significantly improved the comprehensibility of complex designs, which helped identify and manage design buildability (overall, 83% of participants strongly supported this).Originality/valueThe paper showed construction digitisation such as VR, augmented reality and building information modelling is highly cooperative as it can easily be made available for online learning. Thus, the findings support construction educators use online-based VR learning to promote efficient teaching of design buildability to students.
Enhancing rating prediction for recommendation by metric learning with gray relational analysis
Authors: Chen Jiangmei , Zhang Wende , Zhang Qishan 
Published: December 2021

PurposeThe purpose of the paper is to improve the rating prediction accuracy in recommender systems (RSs) by metric learning (ML) method. The similarity metric of user and item is calculated with gray relational analysis.Design/methodology/approachFirst, the potential features of users and items are captured by exploiting ML, such that the rating prediction can be performed. In metric space, the user and item positions can be learned by training their embedding vectors. Second, instead of the traditional distance measurements, the gray relational analysis is employed in the evaluation of the position similarity between user and item, because the latter can reduce the impact of data sparsity and further explore the rating data correlation. On the basis of the above improvements, a new rating prediction algorithm is proposed. Experiments are implemented to validate the effectiveness of the algorithm.FindingsThe novel algorithm is evaluated by the extensive experiments on two real-world datasets. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model achieves remarkable performance on the rating prediction task.Practical implicationsThe rating prediction algorithm is adopted to predict the users' preference, and then, it provides personalized recommendations for users. In fact, this method can expand to the field of classification and provide potentials for this domain.Originality/valueThe algorithm can uncover the finer grained preference by ML. Furthermore, the similarity can be measured using gray relational analysis, which can mitigate the limitation of data sparsity.
Analysing developing countries approaches of supply chain resilience to COVID-19
Authors: Aman Sadaf , Seuring Stefan 
Published: December 2021

PurposeThe Covid-19 pandemic has made it essential to explore the resilience factors specific to developing regions, not only because they pose threats of extreme poverty and offer a novel context but also because they play an important role in globalisation.Design/methodology/approachA mixed-method approach was undertaken to address this novel pandemic situation. First, an open-ended structured questionnaire was developed, and data were collected from three neighbouring emerging economies: Pakistan, India and Iran. Experts' perspectives on vulnerabilities, response measures, resilience and restoration of supply chain activities, and the role of social capital were collected. Second, building upon the findings from phase one of the studies, a quantitative structured questionnaire using the supply chain operational reference (SCOR) model was used to collect data in a structured manner. This quantitative data were further analysed using frequency and contingency analysis.FindingsThe findings from the first phase of the study inductively derive 36 resilience categories. Later, the contingency findings show that supply chain (SC) disruption is a major vulnerability for emerging economies, whereas solutions offered to combat it lay in the reconfiguration of resources, such as financial, technological, human, information and material. Additionally, supply network structure and social capital play an integral part in making SCs resilient against disruption.Research limitations/implicationsThe respondents comprise the academics/SC researchers, which make the findings interesting though they lack the industrial experts' perspectives, directly. Nevertheless, the propositions can be tested in industrial settings to see whether the results are limited to a specific industrial setting or are rather generalised.Practical implicationsSimilarly, practitioners and policy makers can incorporate the SCOR metrics/factors outlined in this study into their performance measurement systems and ensure continuous monitoring for firm's resilience.Originality/valueThe study offers a holistic understanding of the developing regions' approaches to Covid-19. The paper also takes a social capital perspective to explain firms' resilience in these emerging economies.
Participation in farmer organizations and adoption of farming technologies among rice farmers in Ghana
Authors: Addai Kwabena Nyarko , Temoso Omphile , Ng'ombe John N. 
Published: December 2021

PurposeThe authors examine the factors influencing membership in farmer organizations (FO) and their effects on the decision to adopt farm technologies by rice farmers in Ghana.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses a farm survey of 900 households from Northern Ghana and a recursive bivariate probit (RBP) model that accounts for selection bias and endogeneity.FindingsThe results indicate that the household head’s decision to adopt machinery and row planting increases by 38.4 and 25.3%, respectively, upon joining a farmer organization. Membership in farmer organization is positively influenced by off-farm income, asset value, farmer organization location and farmer location in Upper West region but negatively by males, age and total livestock units owned. Machinery adoption is positively influenced by membership in farmer organizations and respondent being male but negatively influenced by the years of schooling, farm size, farm distance and location of a farmer in Ghana's Upper East and West regions. Similarly, row planting adoption is positively influenced by membership in farmers' organization but adversely by farm size, farm distance and a farmer's location in Upper East region of Ghana.Research limitations/implicationsIt can be concluded that membership in farmers' organizations significantly impacts farm household head’s decision to adopt machinery and row planting in rice production, which potentially enhance crop productivity.Practical implicationsThese results show the importance of agricultural stakeholders in encouraging the formation and strengthening of farmer organizations to support the adoption of modern farming technologies.Originality/valueDeveloping literature has demonstrated that farmer organizations promote the adoption of agricultural innovations. However, most of these studies have concentrated on conventional agricultural innovations and have used methods that fail to account for potential selection bias. This paper fills this important gap.

Authors: Zhu Bifeng , Liu Gebing , Feng Jing 
Published: December 2021

Purpose
This paper aims to make a comparative study on the latest version of green campus evaluation standard between China and America: Green Campus Evaluation Standard (GB/T51356-2019) and the sustainability tracking, assessment and rating system (STARS 2.2). The differences of evaluation methods and contents are analyzed and their respective characteristics and advantages are sorted out, so as to promote the development of sustainable campus evaluation standards.

Design/methodology/approach
The research mainly adopts the method of comparative study, which is carried out from three dimensions, namely, the related policies development of campus construction and world university sustainable rankings; the content of evaluation standards (including evaluation methods and evaluation categories and scores); the characteristics and current application of standards.

Findings
There are great differences between the evaluation standards of China and America in organization and participation mode, evaluation method and content. Public engagement, energy and campus engagement are the hot spots. Buildings, energy, food and dining and investment and finance will become the focus of sustainable campus in the future. Specific optimization strategies of key points, evaluation method and content and organization and participation mode of Chinese standard are put forward.

Practical implications
This paper clarifies the advantages and disadvantages of the current global sustainable campus, and provides the basis for the next stage of construction policy. At the same time, it is helpful for all countries, especially China, to formulate construction guidelines that not only meet their own actual needs but also conform to the trend of global sustainable campus development.

Social implications
The connotation of sustainable campus is enriched, and the evaluation standards of sustainable campus are improved. The development of sustainable campus is promoted, so as to realize the sustainable development goals.

Originality/value
This research expands the scope of the study to the whole campus, rather than just one aspect of campus buildings. It compares the evaluation standard of green campus in China with STARS in the USA, and no longer compares leadership in energy and environmental design for schools. It discusses the campus building’s energy conservation while paying attention to the campus green consciousness, green management and green planning. Based on the relevant data currently used by STARS in the global evaluation, this paper analyzes the hot spots and shortcomings of the current global sustainable campus construction and puts forward some optimization suggestions for China’s green campus evaluation system.
Real-time pixel-wise grasp affordance prediction based on multi-scale context information fusion
Authors: Wu Yongxiang , Fu Yili , Wang Shuguo 
Published: December 2021

Purpose
This paper aims to use fully convolutional network (FCN) to predict pixel-wise antipodal grasp affordances for unknown objects and improve the grasp detection performance through multi-scale feature fusion.

Design/methodology/approach
A modified FCN network is used as the backbone to extract pixel-wise features from the input image, which are further fused with multi-scale context information gathered by a three-level pyramid pooling module to make more robust predictions. Based on the proposed unify feature embedding framework, two head networks are designed to implement different grasp rotation prediction strategies (regression and classification), and their performances are evaluated and compared with a defined point metric. The regression network is further extended to predict the grasp rectangles for comparisons with previous methods and real-world robotic grasping of unknown objects.

Findings
The ablation study of the pyramid pooling module shows that the multi-scale information fusion significantly improves the model performance. The regression approach outperforms the classification approach based on same feature embedding framework on two data sets. The regression network achieves a state-of-the-art accuracy (up to 98.9%) and speed (4 ms per image) and high success rate (97% for household objects, 94.4% for adversarial objects and 95.3% for objects in clutter) in the unknown object grasping experiment.

Originality/value
A novel pixel-wise grasp affordance prediction network based on multi-scale feature fusion is proposed to improve the grasp detection performance. Two prediction approaches are formulated and compared based on the proposed framework. The proposed method achieves excellent performances on three benchmark data sets and real-world robotic grasping experiment.

Published: December 2021

Purpose
Transformative service research (TSR) has received considerable attention from researchers and marketers in recent years and becomes a research priority in health care. In response, this paper adapts the TSR entities and wellbeing framework to systematically review healthcare quality research on Muslim consumers. The purpose of this paper is to identify research gaps and provide directions for future research, aligning healthcare studies with the TSR framework.

Design/methodology/approach
The authors of this paper reviewed empirical papers in healthcare quality research on Muslim patients between the years 2000 and 2020. The recorded journal articles were synthesized using insights from the TSR framework. Several literature gaps were identified and future research directions were provided using the TCCM framework, in which T stands for theory, C for context, C for characteristics and M for methodology.

Findings
This paper finds studies that encompass several domains of the TSR framework including cultural and religious dimensions, service interaction and customer engagement dimensions and customer service wellbeing. Findings also reveal subject matters related to the TSR framework, which receive less attention in the healthcare literature. A number of potential avenues for theoretical extension in health care are also discussed.

Social implications
The implications of this paper are highly relevant to Muslim healthcare consumers, the healthcare system and society in general. The findings suggest inspiring changes in the healthcare ecosystem that yields a greater quality of life (health and wellbeing) for individuals and their respective communities.

Originality/value
This paper advances the current state of healthcare research by identifying and organizing components of TSR entities and wellbeing framework, using Muslim patients as the context. It enhances some pioneering approaches within the domain of TSR and quality dynamics and provides a holistic perspective as guidance and systematic thinking to further advancement in the field of services marketing and Islamic marketing.
