Rediscovering the essence in a classical order through analysis and deconstruction
Authors: Charalambides Jason E. 
Published: March 2019

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to expose a classical Vitruvian archetype and subject it to the logic of deconstruction. The process engages two opposing camps and mindsets, and, through analysis, reaches a point that allows the reader to make assessments on how the archetype fulfills the perceived objectives of its time and how it can be assessed through a more contemporary methodology.

Design/methodology/approach
This study employs two methodologies in the analysis of an architectural model that became a reference point in the evolution of Western Architecture. A traditional approach similar to Ruskin’s Victorian-style analysis and criticism builds the study’s foundations. That is followed by the method of deconstructivism, challenging the traditional thought, resurfacing of the duality of every attribute assigned to the initial datum. Initially, the study brings to the proscenium the nature of this classical order as a sui generis archetype, defining the engendered properties that describe it. That is followed by an inverse process as applied by the twentieth-century deconstructivist movement.

Findings
The paper finds the dichotomy of perception of a classical archetype based upon the methods applied.

Practical implications
Recognition of a dichotomy of perception of a classical architectural archetype becomes overture toward a number of well-defined archetypes based on what could be considered Cartesian non-complex architectural archetypes.

Originality/value
This paper offers a Gestalt-based reflection on the nature of the Doric order.
The impact of digital technologies on vocational education and training needs
Authors: Achtenhagen Claudia , Achtenhagen Leona 
Published: March 2019

Purpose
Currently, the hype surrounding digitalization proclaims that the way in which companies create and capture value will change dramatically. Companies that adjust their business models to embrace digital technologies will need different skill sets and competences. Current research tends to focus on the impact of digital technologies on corporations or more generally the labor market, but the authors lack detailed insights into how companies perceive this development to influence their needs regarding employee qualifications. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to explore how companies perceive the impact of digital technologies on the education and training needs of current and future employees.

Design/methodology/approach
This study draws on eight case studies from the food industry. It focuses on one occupation certified within the German “dual system” of vocational education and training (VET), the machine and plant operator with focus on food technology.

Findings
The findings suggest that the impact of different digital technologies on employees’ job positions, working tasks and training needs is carefully considered in decisions regarding the implementation of digital technologies. Despite some company-specific contingencies, the perceived implications for VET needs are largely similar across the sample.

Originality/value
This study draws attention to the importance of reviewing VET needs in relation to the decision of implementing digital technologies.
Engagement as a moderator on the embeddedness-deviance relationship
Authors: Singh Riann 
Published: March 2019

PurposeThis paper aims to suggest that organizational embeddedness can predict workplace deviance and employee work engagement can moderate the relationship between organizational embeddedness and workplace deviance such that when employee work engagement is higher, the relationship between organizational embeddedness and workplace deviance is weaker.Design/methodology/approachEmployee data were collected from 465 frontline employees across the financial services sector in the Caribbean nation of Trinidad. A three-step multiple hierarchical regression analysis was used to test the research relationships.FindingsThe findings provided support for the propositions that organizational embeddedness predicts workplace deviance and that employee work engagement moderates the organizational embeddedness–workplace deviance relationship.Originality/valueThis study addresses a clear gap as limited studies have explored the association of embeddedness with negative work behaviours, such as deviance, and no study have examined the moderating role of engagement in this relationship.
Influence as the key to consent? Swedish director generals’ perceptions of reporting requirements
Authors: de Fine Licht Jenny , Pierre Jon 
Published: March 2019

Purpose
Performance measurements have become a prominent part of government steering of public agencies. At the same time, they are increasingly criticized for creating heavy administrative burdens. The purpose of this paper is to argue that consent on part of the heads of agencies is vital for making performance measurement an efficient tool for not only control but also organizational learning.

Design/methodology/approach
The paper reports a survey with a nearly total sample of Swedish Director Generals.

Findings
Findings suggest that Director Generals who feel that they are able to influence the goals and indicators of their agencies are significantly more willing to consent to the government’s reporting requirements.

Originality/value
The paper suggests that a more encompassing, interactive and participatory process might increase agency consent with reporting requirements.
Healthcare indicators and firearm homicide: an ecologic study
Authors: Formica Margaret K. , Rajan Sonali , Simons Nicholas 
Published: March 2019

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between rates of firearm homicide in New York State (NYS) and indicators of access to and quality of healthcare from 2011 to 2017.

Design/methodology/approach
Utilizing data from the NYS Division of Criminal Justice Services Uniform Crime Reporting Supplemental Homicide Reports and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation County Health Rankings Program, a county-level ecologic study was conducted, descriptive statistics provided and multivariable analyses conducted to determine the associations between critical indicators of county health and firearm homicide.

Findings
The majority of firearm homicide victims (n=2,619) were young, Black, men and the highest rates of firearm homicide were situated in urban centers. Subgroup analyses excluding large urban centers and controlling for key demographics illustrated that those counties with lower rates of clinicians were significantly associated with higher rates of firearm homicide.

Research limitations/implications
Despite challenges integrating two large data sets, the present findings were able to illustrate the critical relationship between access to healthcare and prevalence of firearm homicide.

Practical implications
The results of this study reinforce the importance of access to primary healthcare services and its relationship to critical health outcomes.

Social implications
In urban settings, firearm homicides disproportionately impact young Black men, who are among the least likely to have access to healthcare. In more rural areas, access to healthcare is related directly to improved health outcomes, including reduced rates of firearm homicides.

Originality/value
This is the first study to explore and subsequently establish the relationship between indicators of community health and firearm homicide in NYS.
The financial returns from buying versus renting
Authors: Mostafa Abdulkader , Jones Colin Anthony 
Published: March 2019

PurposeThe UK experienced a substantial rise in owner occupation over the twentieth century, and many tenants still aspire to homeownership. These strong aspirations to own are attributed to a set of financial and non-financial benefits. This paper aims to calculate, for the first time, the financial returns from buying versus renting in Britain for first-time buyers in 11 regions.Design/methodology/approachIt applies a DCF approach based on historical housing and mortgage market data from 1975 to 2012.FindingsThe paper finds strong evidence that, in purely financial terms, buying has been always superior to renting in all regions of the UK over the period.Practical implicationsIt gives a clear message of the financial benefits of homeownership over renting in Britain, even over very short time periods.Originality/valueThe paper is the first to apply a comprehensive DCF model to the choice between renting and owning.
Webcare’s effect on constructive and vindictive complainants
Authors: Weitzl Wolfgang J. 
Published: March 2019

Purpose
This paper aims to demonstrate that online complainants’ reactions to a company’s service recovery attempts (webcare) can significantly vary across two different types of dissatisfied customers (“vindictives” vs “constructives”), who have dramatically diverging complaint goal orientations.

Design/methodology/approach
Online multi-country survey among 812 adult consumers who recently had a dissatisfying brand experience and turned to a marketer-generated social media site to voice an online complaint for achieving their ultimate complaining goals. Scenario-based online experiment for cross-validating the survey findings.

Findings
Results suggest that “vindictive complainants” – driven dominantly by brand-adverse motives – are immune to any form of webcare, while “constructive complainants” – interested in restoring the customer-brand relationship – react more sensitively. For the latter, “no-responses” often trigger detrimental brand-related reactions (e.g. unfavorable brand image), whereas “defensive responses” are likely to stimulate post-webcare negative word-of-mouth.

Research limitations/implications
This research identifies the gains and harms of (un-)desired webcare. By doing so, it not only sheds light on the circumstances when marketers have to fear negative effects (e.g. negative word-of-mouth) but also provides insights into the conditions when such effects are unlikely. While the findings of the cross-sectional survey are validated with an online experiment, findings should be interpreted with care as other complaining contexts should be further investigated.

Practical implications
Marketers have to expect a serious “backfiring effect” from an unexpected source, namely, consumers who were initially benevolent toward the involved brand but who received an inappropriate response.

Originality/value
This research is one of the first research studies that enables marketers to identify situations when webcare is likely to backfire on the brand after a service failure.
“Almost there”: sonically controlled vibrators, sound, and emotions
Authors: Anderson-Kunert Todd 
Published: March 2019

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how practice-led research within the sonic practice references what Smith and Dean (2009) describe as the “The Iterative Cyclic Web,” and oscillations between different modes of research and practice throughout the methodology.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper uses this process to document the construction of a sonically based erotic artwork, “Almost there,” which used sonically controlled vibrators in order to generate vocal content.

Findings
The paper found that it was important to oscillate between modes of research and practice in order to create a conceptually concise artwork that functioned as a Gestalt of both practice and research.

Originality/value
The unique approach to audio collection within this sonic artwork, and the time taken to collect this source material, makes it a unique vehicle for the consideration of “The iterative Cyclic Web.”

Abstract

Ecological studies of global warming impacts have many constraints. Organisms are often exposed to higher temperatures for short periods of time, probably underestimating their ability to acclimate or adapt relative to slower but real rates of warming. Many studies also focus on a limited number of traits and miss the multifaceted effects that warming may have on organisms, from physiology to behaviour. Organisms exhibit different movement traits, some of which are primarily driven by metabolic processes and others by decision‐making, which should influence the extent to which temperature affects them.

We collected snails from streams that have been differentially heated by geothermal activity for decades to determine how long‐term exposure to different temperatures affected their metabolism and movement. Additionally, we collected snails from a cold stream (5°C) and measured their metabolism and movement at higher temperatures (short‐term exposure). We used respirometry to measure metabolic rates and automated in situ image‐based tracking to quantify several movement traits from 5 to 21°C.

Long‐term exposure to higher temperatures resulted in a greater thermal sensitivity of metabolic rate compared to snails exposed for short durations, highlighting the need for caution when conducting acute temperature exposures in global warming research. Average speed, which is largely driven by metabolism, also increased more with temperature for long‐term exposure compared to short‐term exposure. Movement traits we interpret as more decision‐based, such as time spent moving and trajectory shape, were less affected by temperature. Step length increased and step angle decreased at higher temperatures for both long‐ and short‐term exposure, resulting in overall straighter trajectories. The power‐law exponent of the step length distributions and fractal dimension of trajectories were independent of temperature, however, suggesting that snails retained the same movement strategy.

The observed changes in snail movement at higher temperatures should lead to higher encounter rates and more efficient searching, providing a behavioural mechanism for stronger plant–herbivore interactions in warmer environments. Our research is among the first to show that temperature has contrasting effects on different movement traits, which may be determined by the metabolic contribution to those behaviours.

Published: March 2019

ObjectiveObsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is a chronic, prevalent, and highly impairing psychiatric illness. Although the pathophysiology of OCD remains unknown, pathways involved in oxidative and nitrosative stress (O&NS) have been implicated. The present study aims to systematically review the literature for quantitative evidence that patients with OCD have altered measures of blood O&NS markers.MethodsIndependent random‐effects meta‐analyses using standardized mean differences were conducted to assess each marker separately. Additionally, data from multiple markers were pooled together in a meta‐analysis for measures of oxidant activity and another for measures of antioxidant activity.ResultsThirteen studies met inclusion criteria, involving 433 OCD patients and 459 controls. Eleven blood O&NS markers were eligible for independent quantitative analyses. We found that, in OCD patients, the oxidant markers 8‐hydroxydeoxyguanosine and malondialdehyde, and the antioxidants glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase, were significantly increased while total antioxidant status, vitamin C, and vitamin E were significantly decreased, when comparing with controls. Regarding pooled meta‐analyses, we found a statistically significant increase in oxidant markers, but non‐significant results regarding antioxidant markers.ConclusionsOur meta‐analysis suggests that OCD patients have a systemic oxidative imbalance that is not adequately buffered by the antioxidant system. Additional studies are needed in order to support this association.
Patterns of invertebrate food availability and the persistence of an avian insectivore on the brink
Authors: Stone Zoë L. , Tasker Elizabeth , Maron Martine 
Published: March 2019

AbstractGlobally, insectivorous birds are at high risk of decline. One explanation of this relates to changes in invertebrate resources due to anthropogenic pressures. The northern population of the eastern bristlebird (Dasyornis brachypterus) relies heavily on invertebrate food resources, and has experienced an 80% population reduction over the past 40 years. We investigated invertebrate abundance and nutritional quality across 23 currently and historically occupied northern bristlebird sites to determine whether extant territories were associated with more, or more nutritious, invertebrate resources. Pitfall and leaf‐litter invertebrate sampling were done in both breeding and non‐breeding seasons from 2014 to 2016. There was no difference in abundance, biomass or nutritional value of invertebrates between occupied and abandoned territories; however, within territories invertebrate abundance and nutritional value did correspond to the habitat characteristics with which bristlebirds are associated. Nutritional value of invertebrates increased with proximity to rainforest, while the abundance of macro‐invertebrates (>1 mm) was correlated with grass height. Bristlebird territories are often close to rainforest margins, and these ecotones may provide more nutritious mesic‐associated invertebrates. Higher abundances of large invertebrates in tall grasses may also contribute to the known association of bristlebirds with tall grasses. Maintenance of tall grass adjacent to rainforest through appropriate fire and grazing management is likely to be important for northern bristlebird recovery and long‐term persistence of the population.
Lateral bone flap approach for displaced intra‐articular calcaneus fractures
Authors: Wang Shouli , Zhou Xiaobo , Liang Junbo , Liu Fucun , Wang Bin 
Published: March 2019

BackgroundThe traditional extended lateral approach for calcaneus fractures can provide sufficient exposure for reduction, but complications are frequent. The minimally invasive approach does limited damage to the soft tissue and its complication rate is low, but provides limited surgical exposure for complicated fracture. Thus, an approach that could provide wide exposure with less soft tissue injury is important.MethodsThe lateral bone flap approach, we proposed, involved the same incision as the extended lateral approach. After incision, osteotomy was performed around the lateral bulged wall of the calcaneus without dissection of soft tissue. The lateral wall was free from calcaneus and connected with the soft tissue, and the lateral bone flap was developed. The reduction of fracture and the fixation of plate were performed as usual. Next, the bone flap was reduced and sutured. This retrospective study of lateral bone flap approach included 63 cases of 58 patients with displaced intra‐articular calcaneus fractures from January 2011 to January 2015. Clinical and radiological outcomes and complications were all recorded.ResultsRadiological outcome was significantly improved at 3 months and 2 years post‐operatively compared with that of pre‐operatively (P < 0.01). The Maryland Foot Score at the last follow up was 87.2 ± 7.0. The excellent/good rate was 90.5%. One case of delayed wound healing occurred. No infection or sural nerve injury occurred.ConclusionThe lateral bone flap approach is simple, safe and effective for displaced intra‐articular calcaneus.

Published: March 2019

BackgroundPenetrating abdominal trauma is uncommon in Australia. There are multiple potential approaches to the patient without an indication for immediate laparotomy. This study examined the management of patients with a penetrating anterior abdominal injury in a Level 1 trauma centre, and in particular investigated the outcomes of those patients who underwent diagnostic laparoscopy.MethodsA retrospective review was undertaken of all patients presenting to a Level 1 trauma centre with an anterior abdominal stab wound over a 15‐year period. Patient demographic, injury, examination, treatment and outcome data were extracted. These data were analysed using SPSS PASW version 20.ResultsA total of 318 patients were identified. Immediate laparotomy was performed in 121 of those patients. Of the remaining 197 patients, 146 underwent diagnostic laparoscopy. Peritoneal breach was identified in 87 patients, 79 of whom then had exploratory laparotomy. The laparotomy was therapeutic in 36 of 79 patients (45.6%). Multiple stab wounds were an independent predictor of therapeutic laparotomy (hazard ratio 2.39, 95% CI 1.16–4.93). Diagnostic laparoscopy was 100% sensitive, 60.9% specific and had a negative predictive value of 100% and a positive predictive value of 40%. Non‐therapeutic laparotomy was associated with a median length of stay of 5.5 days and a complication rate of 9.3%.ConclusionDiagnostic laparoscopy to detect peritoneal breach is a safe approach in the management of anterior abdominal stab wounds. However, utilizing peritoneal breach as an indication for laparotomy is associated with a moderate incidence of non‐therapeutic laparotomy. Measures to decrease the negative laparotomy rate should be considered.

Published: March 2019

AbstractObjectiveDrug repurposing is an increasingly promising idea in many fields of medicine. We systematically used Danish nation‐wide population‐based registers to investigate whether continued use of non‐aspirin non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), low‐dose aspirin, high‐dose aspirin, statins, allopurinol, and angiotensin agents decrease the rate of incident mania/bipolar disorder.MethodsA nation‐wide population‐based longitudinal study using Poisson regression analyses including all persons in Denmark who purchased the exposure medication of interest and a random sample of 30% of the Danish population. The follow‐up period comprised a 10 years period from 2005 to 2015. Two different outcome measures were included, (1) a diagnosis of mania/bipolar disorder at a psychiatric hospital contact as inpatient or outpatient and (2) a combined measure of a diagnosis of mania/bipolar disorder or initiation of lithium use.ResultsA total of 1,605,365 subjects were exposed to one of the six drugs of interest during the exposure period from 2005 to 2015, median age 57 years [quartiles: 43;69], and female proportion of 53.1%. Continued use of low‐dose aspirin, statins, and angiotensin agents were associated with decreased rates of incident mania/bipolar disorder on both outcome measures. Continued uses of non‐aspirin NSAIDs as well as high‐dose aspirin were associated with an increased rate of incident bipolar disorder. There were no statistically significant associations for allopurinol.ConclusionsThe study supports the potential of agents acting on inflammation and the stress response system in bipolar disorder and illustrates that population‐based registers can be used to systematically identify drugs with repurposing potentials.
