Authors: Li Xingwang , Zhang Jingwei , Li Zhigang , Gao Feng , Yu Cheng 
Published: December 2021

Purpose
This study aims to let researchers sort out the past, look to the future and boost further management research.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper takes the exploration of the application of AR in the field of management research as the starting point. Through the combing and induction of AR literature to accurately grasp the essential characteristics of AR, this paper analyzes the application prospects and possible difficulties of AR in the field of management research in China, puts forward specific suggestions and explores the specific path of the transformation of management academic research to practice from the perspective of research methods.

Findings
In research methods, empirical research and case studies have become the mainstream research methods, but there is a passive research limitation of “study what happens.” Action research is different from the standpoint of empirical research that is independent of the research object. It no longer simply treats managers as the “object of information acquisition,” but as the subject of participating in the research. Management should be oriented towards the transformation of practice, and action research (AR) that can organically integrate researchers and practitioners is just a “bridge” to break the gap between academia and business circles to establish a cooperative relationship.

Unpacking overtourism as a discursive formation through interdiscursivity
Authors: O’ Regan Michael , Salazar Noel B. , Choe Jaeyeon , Buhalis Dimitrios 
Published: December 2021

PurposeAs tourism destinations grapple with declines in tourist arrivals due to COVID-19 measures, scholarly debate on overtourism remains active, with discussions on solutions that could be enacted to contain the excessive regrowth of tourism and the return of “overtourism”. As social science holds an important role and responsibility to inform the debate on overtourism, this paper aims to understand overtourism by examining it as a discursive formation.Design/methodology/approachThe paper explores recurring thematic threads in scholarly overtourism texts, given the phrases coherence as a nodal-point is partially held in place by a collective body of texts authored by a network of scholars who have invested in it. The paper uses interdiscursivity as an interpretative framework to identify overlapping thematic trajectories found in existing discourses.FindingsOvertourism, as a discursive formation, determines what can and should be said about the self-evident “truths” of excessive tourist arrivals, the changes tourists bring to destinations and the range of discursive solutions available to manage or end overtourism. As the interpellation of these thematic threads into scholarly texts is based on a sense of crisis and urgency, the authors find that the themes contain rhetoric, arguments and metaphors that problematise tourists and construct them as objects in need of control and correction.Originality/valueWhile the persistence of the discursive formation will be determined by the degree to which scholarly and other actors recognise themselves in it, this paper may enable overtourism scholars to become aware of the limits of their discursive domain and help them to expand the discourse or weave a new one.
The effect of moisture, nutrients and disturbance on storage organ size and persistence in temperate herbs
Authors: Bartušková Alena , Lubbe Frederick Curtis , Qian Jianqiang , Herben Tomáš , Klimešová Jitka 
Published: December 2021

Abstract

Perennial herbaceous plants in seasonal temperate climates must form belowground storage organs to contain carbohydrates for seasonal regrowth and to mitigate disturbance and damage. The factors that dictate the size and turnover of these organs are still little understood. According to the Integrator–Splitter Hypothesis, storage organ persistence decreases with greater moisture and nutrient availability. The Resprouter‐Seeder Hypothesis predicts that investments into storage organs are the largest when severe disturbances occur at an intermediate frequency. Additionally, according to the Carbon Surplus Hypothesis, storage organ size should increase with lower nutrient availability.

We measured storage organ traits (lateral spread and persistence) and size parameters for more than 200 species of clonal perennial herbs and assessed their relationship with different environmental gradients linked to productivity (moisture and nutrients) and disturbance regime (disturbance frequency and severity). Additionally, we included plant height to account for potential scaling relationships between these traits and plant size.

Disturbance frequency had negative effects on storage organ size and turnover, other environmental parameters (moisture and disturbance severity) had positive effects. Storage organ volume correlated strongly with organ diameter and plant size (height).

The divergence between lateral spread and persistence along the moisture gradient supported the Integrator–Splitter Hypothesis and reduction of volume and storage organ persistence under greater disturbance frequency supported the Resprouter‐Seeder Hypothesis. Storage organ size was not affected by nutrient availability; thus our results contradict the Carbon Surplus Hypothesis. Although this is important evidence for plant allocation and storage strategy, future studies will need to include measurements of storage organ carbohydrate content to understand the difference in allocation between investment into structural growth as opposed to stored carbohydrates for later use.

A multi‐parameter approach for recognition of anthropogenic noise in aeromagnetic data collected over populated areas: Erzgebirge, Germany
Authors: Morris William , Ugalde Hernan , Kirsch Moritz , Gloaguen Richard , Ibs‐von Seht Malte , Siemon Bernhard , Meyer Uwe 
Published: December 2021

ABSTRACTAeromagnetic data are routinely acquired by mineral exploration programmes. The objective is to obtain a raster image of the spatial variations of magnetic field intensity; these variations are associated with mineralogical variations in the subsurface. When the survey is conducted in a populated area, much of the signal, however, may be associated with anthropogenic sources such as buildings and roads. Identification and minimization of the anthropogenic‐related signal then are essential to derive a useful product for geological mapping. In this work, we examine a scalar magnetic dataset from Geyer, Saxony, and we apply five approaches for locating regions of anomalous anthropogenic signal: signal amplitude, absolute fourth difference, signal standard deviation, enhanced horizontal gradient and curvedness. All are shown to produce similar responses, and the summation of the five results compares favourably with the standard Keating kimberlite (circular anomaly) approach for detecting anthropogenic signals. Complications arise when geological features produce signals of similar amplitude to anthropogenic sources. Differentiating the probable origin of any specific pattern can be assessed by using a 2D shape index and increased flight height. Verification of an anthropogenic anomaly is achieved by comparison of anomalous solution grids with Geographic Information System‐based reference data.
The parenting occupations and purposes conceptual framework: A scoping review of ‘doing’ parenting
Authors: Lim Yu Zhuang Germaine , Honey Anne , McGrath Margaret 
Published: December 2021

AbstractIntroductionParenting is a valued, common and challenging adult role. Many parents, including some living with disability or difficult social circumstances, experience barriers to fulfilling their parenting roles. Yet, occupational therapy involvement in parenting is rarely documented. Current understandings about ‘doing’ parenting lack cohesion and are dispersed in occupational therapy literature.This study aims to map and synthesise occupational therapy literature on ‘doing’ parenting to describe the state of the existing knowledge base, and develop a conceptual framework of parenting occupations as portrayed in occupational therapy literature.MethodsA scoping review was conducted. Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched on 28 October 2019 and updated on 18 February 2021. Journal articles and book chapters were screened for eligibility. Included texts' publication characteristics, methodological characteristics, and areas of focus were summarised. Interpretive content analysis was conducted.ResultsFrom 5945 unique records, 105 texts were included. These discussed general parenting, parents with disabilities, and parenting in challenging social situations. Most texts focussed on mothers caring for young children in Western cultural contexts. The analysis culminated in the development of a conceptual framework: the Parenting Occupations and Purposes (POP) Framework. This comprises 10 interrelated areas of parenting occupations, which are performed for the purposes of addressing the child's basic, developmental and social needs. Parenting occupations were also found to be influenced by additional, underlying occupations that build parenting capacity ‐Continuous Parental Development (CPD)occupations.ConclusionThese findings provide an overview of current occupational therapy conceptualisations of parenting. Unlike most of the existing literature on parenting, the POP Framework is parent‐centric rather than child‐centric. More research on parenting occupations is needed, especially with more diverse representation (fathers, ages of children, parental disability and sociocultural background). Further research is required to examine the POP Framework's usefulness in guiding research and practice, particularly among parents with diverse characteristics.
Business Angel Investment as an Informal Learning Process: Does Experience Matter?
Authors: Botelho Tiago , Harrison Richard , Mason Colin 
Published: December 2021

AbstractThis paper addresses the question of how the informal learning processes of angel investors shape the way in which they assess new investment opportunities. Previous research has suggested that angels learn from their previous investment activity. However, the measurement of investment experience as a function of years of investing and number of investments made does not take into account how, and to what extent, learning occurs and how it impacts investors’ decision‐making. To address this deficiency, we suggest a dynamic model of informal learning which incorporates the informal learning typology developed by Schugurensky and extended by Bennett, as a conceptual framework to understand how learning experiences impact angel investment decisions. Based on interviews and verbal protocol analysis with 30 investors, we demonstrate how learning impacts learning processes and outcomes as angels assess an investment opportunity. The findings highlight the importance of supporting angel learning with support for angel groups and angel training programmes.
Patterns of sperm use by twice‐mated female Queensland fruit flies

Published: December 2021

AbstractMultiple mating by females, polyandry, is common in insects, including in tephritid fruit flies. Female insects that remate commonly store sperm of multiple males. How the sperm of different males contribute to paternity is an important element of sexual selection. Sexual behavior and reproduction of the Queensland fruit fly (Qfly), Bactrocera tryoni, has been extensively investigated both in relation to understanding this economically important species’ reproductive biology and in relation to implications for Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), whereby sterile flies are released to constrain reproduction of pest populations. Despite numerous studies of pre‐ and postcopulatory sexual selection in Qfly, there have been no direct studies of paternity patterns in polyandrous female Qflies. We used two morphologically distinguishable lines to investigate patterns of sperm use in Qfly. The two lines showed comparable mating performance evidenced by similar mating and remating frequency, copula duration, and proportion of second mate paternity (P2) between reciprocal crosses. The mechanism of sperm usage, with P2 close to 0.5 immediately after the second mating followed by gradual decrease of P2 as females aged, is most consistent with stratification or repositioning of sperm. Patterns observed in the present study are compared with the available information from other tephritid fruit flies, and are discussed in relation to this species’ reproductive biology, known patterns of sperm storage, and SIT.
Sex, drugs, and coercive control: Gendered narratives of methamphetamine use, relationships, and violence
Authors: Copes Heith , Brookman Fiona , Ragland Jared , Beaton Blake 
Published: December 2021

AbstractWhile many of the motives people provide for using drugs transcend gender, there are also notable gendered differences. These differences in motive talk aid in stigma management, shape gender performances, and can encourage or constrain behavior. Using data from a photoethnography with 52 people who use methamphetamine in rural Alabama, we find that men and women articulate their motives for drug use in distinctly gendered ways. Most notably, men emphasized the benefits of sex on meth while most of the women did not. Men's stories of meth as a sex drug shaped how they interacted with women often leading them to use violence and coercion to control when, where, and with whom women used meth. Women were less likely to say that increased sexual feelings was their primary motive for using meth. They drew on gendered themes of femininity (e.g., motherhood, home keeper) when explaining their drug use. They also sought ways to resist coercive control that were intertwined with their gendered narratives of drug use. The findings point to the importance of gendered narratives in shaping interactions, and significantly, how narratives can contribute to harm and reinforce gender inequality in drug markets.

AbstractBackgroundOsimertinib is the standard first‐line treatment for non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation. Resistance to osimertinib remains a clinical challenge. However, the optimal therapy for these patients is still controversial. In this study, we aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of immunotherapy plus chemotherapy (IO+C) compared with chemotherapy (C) in NSCLC patients after progression on osimertinib.MethodsAdvanced NSCLC patients after progression on osimertinib were retrospectively reviewed. Progression‐free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and safety were evaluated between the patients treated with IO+C and C.ResultsA total of 40 patients were included in the study. There were 20 patients each in the IO+C group or C group. The ORR was significantly higher in patients in the IO+C group (45% vs. 25%, p < 0.01). The median PFS was 6.4 months for patients in the IO+C group compared to 2.8 months for patients in C group (HR: 0.41, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.20–0.82, p < 0.01). The median OS was significantly longer in the IO+C group than the C group (OS: 12.8 vs. 10.5 months, HR: 0.39, 95% CI: 0.19–0.80, p < 0.01). In subgroup analysis, patients of both sexes, age ≤ 65, bone or adrenal metastasis, exon19 del mutation, and third‐line treatment obtained more OS benefits from immunotherapy. The safety profile of both groups was comparable.ConclusionsOur study provides the clinical evidence of favoring immunotherapy plus chemotherapy in NSCLC patients after progression on osimertinib.

Published: December 2021

AbstractThree‐dimensional (3D) reconstructive techniques are being used in many morphometric studies and clinical applications. The red fox is a wild animal localized in a wide geography. This study has been performed to determine morphometric properties of the pelvic cavity and reveal differences between sexes via 3D reconstruction obtained by multi‐detector computed tomography images (MDCT) of the red fox. A total of 12 adult red foxes of both sexes were used in this study. Two‐dimensional (2D) MDCT images of the pelvic cavity obtained and stored in DICOM format were used to reconstruct the 3D model. Mimics 13.1 program was used to perform the 3D reconstruction. A total of 24 dimensions were measured from the reconstructive model of the pelvic cavity. Twenty two dimensions were found to be significantly different (p < 0.05) between sexes. In conclusion, according to the pelvimetric data, it was determined that the red fox has sexual dimorphism and these data may be useful in wild animals morphological and gynaecological research. The authors hope to help in the diagnosis and treatment of the pelvic cavity‐related orthopaedic and gynaecological disorders in the wild animals.

Published: December 2021

AbstractIntroductionThe Virtual Lesion Clinic (VLC) of Waitematā District Health Board (WDHB) improves melanoma assessment and treatment using teledermatology. The VLC is reserved for pigmented lesions referred as suspected melanoma from primary care but indeterminate at the initial triage.ObjectivesTo assess the efficacy of the VLC diagnosis of melanoma.MethodsA retrospective audit of suspected melanoma referrals (1 January 2012 to 31 December 2016) was conducted. Lesions were referred to the VLC if diagnostic uncertainty remained at the initial triage. VLC patients attended MoleMap imaging centres, a dermatologist reviewed history and images remotely and suggested a diagnosis and management plan. Post VLC provisional diagnosis of melanoma, all lesions subsequently excised were reviewed. A positive predictive value (PPV) was calculated using concordance between VLC diagnosis of melanoma and histopathological diagnosis of melanoma. Number needed to excise (NNE) for melanoma was derived, as well as an invasive to in‐situ melanoma ratio (IM:MIS) and false negative rate (FNR).ResultsThe VLC received 1874 referrals for 3546 lesions during the 5‐year study period. Six hundred and seventy‐nine lesions were recommended excision/biopsy or specialist face‐to‐face assessment, and 504 lesions were subsequently excised. The PPV was 62%, NNE 1.62 and IM:MIS 0.76 for lesions suspected to be melanoma at VLC assessment. The VLC had a melanoma‐specific FNR of 7%.ConclusionsThe VLC is effective in early diagnosis of melanoma with a high positive predictive value, low number needed to excise and low false negative rate amongst lesions referred as suspected melanoma.
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and serotonin‐norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor associated cutaneous adverse drug reactions: A systematic review of case reports and case series

Published: December 2021

AbstractAnecdotal evidence suggests that selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) cause cutaneous adverse drug reactions (CADRs). However, there is limited information on the factors associated with these occurrences. In this study, we aimed to describe the demographic, clinical and pharmacological characteristics associated with CADRs encountered by patients administered SSRIs and/or SNRIs for psychiatric diagnoses and to compare the differences in these factors between severe and non‐severe CADRs. A protocol was developed a priori (PROSPERO: CRD42020204830) in line with the PRISMA guidelines. We searched PubMed/Medline, PsycINFO and SCOPUS from inception to October 2020 to identify case reports and/or case series of SSRI and SNRI associated CADRs. Additional cases were obtained from the retrieved articles’ bibliography. A total of 141 articles were included in the study, documenting 173 CADRs. Females accounted for 128 (74.0%) of the analysed CADRs. The median age of the cases was 42 IQR (27; 53) with no statistically significant differences in age between males and females (P = 0.542). A total of 157 (90.8%) of the reported CADRs were associated with SSRIs, particularly fluoxetine 68 (39.5%), sertraline 30 (17.4%) and paroxetine 25 (14.5%). Non‐severe CADRs and severe CADRs accounted for 23 (13.4%) and 149 (86.6%) reports respectively. No statistically significant differences were observed for gender (P = 0.616), age at onset (P = 0.493) and time to onset (P = 0.105) between non‐severe CADRs and SCARs. In conclusion, CADRs following SSRIs and SNRIs disproportionately affect females in the reproductive age group compared to males and are mostly associated with SSRIs.
