Published: October 2018

PurposeA growing stream of consumer research has examined the family dynamics and consumption practices that come from the changing life stages. This study aims to better understand the narratives surrounding power struggles emanating from continued parental food provision upon the stages of adulthood. The study illustrates the contestations within the family as well as the strategies that recipients use to alleviate these tensions within the context of adult Greek daughters and sons.Design/methodology/approachThe study used in-depth narrative interviews with 17 Greek consumers together with photo elicitation to examine consumers’ power struggles in experiencing continued food provision within the family.FindingsThe study demonstrates that continued food provision affects the stages of adulthood. The adult children go through a journey of negotiation and struggles of power arising within parental food provision practices. The study demonstrates four power-based struggles and four negotiation strategies to cope with and alleviate the contestations.Research limitationsSuch exploration allowed insights to emerge in relation to the narratives of sons and daughters themselves. However, there are two other relational partners – the food providers and the partners of the food recipients – whose perspectives were not captured but would further aid understanding if captured in future research.Practical implicationsThe authors show that consumption practices at home can be a source of friction; thus, food related practices outside the family home can be encouraged to mitigate tensions. The findings could inform advertising campaigns and marketing strategies regarding the loving yet challenging family relationship.Social implicationsThe authors encourage mothers to be reflective on the tendency towards continued provision, as the food provision contributes to the daughter and son’s sense of protracted adulthood stages. Insights from the study are applicable to family tensions in other contexts such as the boomerang generation.Originality/valueThis study focuses on a stage of family life and from a perspective of the recipient, both areas which have been previously under explored. The theoretical perspectives of power are used to contribute to areas of food and family consumption by showing how the provision of food marks meanings of love, but also reveals sources of power and contention. The study also contributes by exploring the role of food consumption in the protraction of adulthood.

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to provide a consolidated reference for the acute management of selected iatrogenic procedural injuries occurring in the emergency department (ED).

Design/methodology/approach
A literature search was performed utilizing PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Google Scholar for studies through March of 2017 investigating search terms “iatrogenic procedure complications,” “error management” and “procedure complications,” in addition to the search terms reflecting case reports involving the eight below listed procedure complications.

Findings
This may be particularly helpful to academic faculty who supervise physicians in training who present a higher risk to cause such injuries.

Originality/value
Emergent procedures performed in the ED present a higher risk for iatrogenic injury than in more controlled settings. Many physicians are taught error-avoidance rather than how to handle errors when learning procedures. There is currently very limited literature on the error management of iatrogenic procedure complications in the ED.
Investigation of magnetic field anneal in micro-patterned amorphous ribbon on giant magneto-impedance effect enhancement
Authors: Feng Zhu , Zhi Shaotao , Guo Lei , Lei Chong , Zhou Yong 
Published: October 2018

Purpose
This paper aims to investigate magnetic field anneal in micro-patterned Co-based amorphous ribbon on giant magneto-impedance (GMI) effect enhancement.

Design/methodology/approach
The amorphous ribbons were annealed in transverse and longitudinal magnetic field. The influence of different field annealing directions on GMI effect and impedance Z, resistance R and reactance X with a series of line width have been deeply analyzed.

Findings
In comparison with GMI sensors microfabricated by unannealed and transversal field annealed ribbons, GMI sensor which was designed and microfabricated by longitudinal field anneal ribbon performs better. The results can be explained by the domain wall motion and domain rotation during annealing process and the geometric structure of Co-based GMI sensor. In addition, shrinking the line width of GMI sensor can promote GMI effect significantly because of the effect of demagnetizing field, and the optimum GMI ratio is 209.7 per cent in longitudinal field annealed GMI sensor with 200 μm line width.

Originality/value
In conclusion, annealing in longitudinal magnetic field and decreasing line width can enhance GMI effect in micro-patterned Co-based amorphous ribbon.

Published: October 2018

Background/aimChildren with ASD are known to have lower play skills than their typically developing peers. However, the play skills of children with ASD are rarely investigated using observational measures in the context of their everyday peer‐to‐peer play interactions. To explore the play skills of children with ASD and their aged matched classmates during a peer‐to‐peer play interaction.MethodsUsing convenience sampling, four children with ASD (5–11 years) attending mainstream schools were recruited for this multiple case design study. Each child with ASD was paired with one of their aged matched typically developing classmates. Children's play skills were measured using the Test of Playfulness (ToP). Additional case data were collected through teacher‐reported social skills and behaviours. Rasch analysis was utilised to convert raw ToP scores into an interval level overall score for each child. Children's individual ToP item scores, social skills and behaviours are presented by case.ResultsThe two children with ASD who had the highest ToP scores, also had the highest teacher‐reported social skills. All children with ASD had greatest difficulty on ToP items reflecting suspension of reality and framing. Two children with ASD had higher ToP scores than their classmate. In these two cases, the classmates had similar play skills of children with ASD.ConclusionThe play skills of children with ASD varied by case. Across the cases, teacher‐reported social skills, classmate age and existence of friendship between children were all factors observed to influence play. These findings require replication and investigation in larger scale studies.

Published: October 2018

Background/aimWhile internationally educated occupational therapists (IEOTs) may assist Western countries in addressing workforce shortages, their transition to practice can be difficult. Provincial and national levels of government in Canada have funded initiatives to address the barriers experienced by IEOTs. The purpose of this study is to identify the key forces shaping the experiences of IEOTs transitioning to practice in Canada.MethodsAn interpretive description approach was taken to interview 11 IEOTs who graduated from the Occupational Therapy Examination and Practice Preparation (OTepp) program. Data analysis was guided by the theoretical scaffolding of the occupational therapy profession. Two team members, who are also occupational therapists, developed codes and categories independently and then through discussion reached a higher level of interpretation.ResultsThe experiences of IEOTs in Canada were shaped by two key forces: Realising that more than exam preparation is required and the impact of previous person, environment and occupation transactions. Participants underestimated their learning needs related to their transition to Canadian practice. As they engaged in the OTepp program, they realised that their learning extended beyond that required for the national certification exam. Also, the extent to which the participant (person), previous context (environment) and previous practice (occupation) were similar to Canadian therapists, influenced IEOTs’ performance in OTepp and their overall transition to practice. The Person‐Environment‐Occupation (PEO) model provided a framework to contextualise this theme.ConclusionIEOTs will benefit from individualised learning needs assessments and education plans to address their specific needs. At an international level, the occupational therapy profession must engage in dialogue about the differences between education programs and the resulting implications for the profession. More research is also needed to understand the experiences of IEOTs who withdraw from or do not engage in formal supports.
Developing a critical trans gerontology
Authors: Toze Michael 
Published: October 2018

AbstractWithin existing academic literature, ageing within trans populations has primarily been addressed from the perspective of offering advice to service providers and clinicians, with relatively limited application of critical sociological perspectives. This article seeks to integrate the critical perspectives on gerontology with transfeminism, identifying areas of commonality regarding accounts of an integrated lifecourse, scepticism of biomedicalization, and an emphasis on local context. The article suggests that this integration provides a fruitful basis for developing future research into the study of trans ageing, and also provides theoretical development across many debates around age, gender and the lifecourse.
How do international lawyers handle facts? The role of folk sociological theories at the International Criminal Court
Authors: Seroussi Julien 
Published: October 2018

AbstractThe International Criminal Court (ICC) investigates international crimes committed in different parts of the world. Earlier scholarly analysis of the work performed by the ICC judges has pointed out that judges often lack cultural and national understanding of the local norms and customs of regions where defendants come from. This article treats this lack of contextual knowledge displayed by the court as a case of structural ignorance rather than an aberration to be ‘exposed’ or censured. International lawyers indeed must ground their legal narratives with plausible sociological explanations of contextual elements to overcome their lack of familiarity with the field and the scarcity of their investigative resources. By uncovering the role of ‘folk sociological theories’ (FSTs) in the establishment of facts in a court context, this article addresses the debate over the efficiency of international criminal justice by highlighting the need to bring historical truth back in. The empirical evidence is based on several years of participant observation in the ICC during the trials against Mathieu Ngudjolo and Germain Katanga, two militiamen from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

Published: October 2018

The aim of the study was to obtain and describe crispy snacks purely made of cheese (also referred to as ‘pure’ cheese snacks) using microwave vacuum drying technology. An acid‐set ripened cheese (Harzer cheese) was tested as the raw material. Cutting, hot air drying and microwave vacuum drying were applied in the technology process. This paper investigates the impact of these processes on the physical properties of the puffs; it also includes sensory evaluation of the resulting product. The cheese pieces expanded by ca. 1000% of their original size with a sharp decrease in the bulk density of the puffed samples. Water activity, hardness and brittleness of the cheese puffs were 0.35, 1511.17 g and 3.20 mm, respectively. The CIE LAB coordinates (in spin position), L*, a* and b*, were 82.81, 1.51 and 20.54, respectively. This paper shows that a new form of dairy product can be produced using microwave technology.

Published: October 2018

ObjectiveTo examine the association of dual use of both Veterans Health Administration (VHA) and Medicare benefits with high‐risk opioid prescriptions among Veterans aged 65 years and older with a musculoskeletal disorder diagnosis.Data Sources/Study SettingData were obtained from the VA Musculoskeletal Disorder (MSD) cohort and national Medicare claims data from 2008 to 2010.Study DesignWe conducted a retrospective analysis of Veterans enrolled in Medicare to examine the association of dual use with long‐term opioid use (>90 days of prescription opioids/year) and overlapping opioid prescriptions. Multivariable logistic regression was performed adjusting for demographic and clinical characteristics.Data Collection/Extraction MethodsWe identified 21,111 Veterans enrolled in Medicare who entered the MSD cohort in 2008 and received an opioid prescription in 2010. We linked VHA data with Medicare claims data to identify opioid prescriptions for these Veterans in 2010.Principal FindingsAs compared to Veterans who used only VHA or Medicare, Veterans with dual use of VHA and Medicare were significantly more likely to be prescribed long‐term opioid therapy (OR = 4.61 (95 percent CI 4.05–5.25) and were also found to have higher median number of opioid prescriptions and higher odds of overlapping opioid prescriptions in 1 year. Patients reporting moderate‐to‐severe pain, non‐white‐race/ethnicity, and higher scoring on the Charlson comorbidity index had significantly higher odds of long‐term opioid prescriptions.ConclusionsAmong Veterans aged 65 years or older, dual use of both VHA and Medicare was associated with higher odds of long‐term opioid therapy. Our findings suggest there may be benefit to combining VHA and non‐VHA electronic health record data to minimize exposure to high‐risk opioid prescribing.
Antarctic heterotrophic bacterium Hymenobacter nivis P3T displays light‐enhanced growth and expresses putative photoactive proteins

Summary
Hymenobacter nivis P3T is a heterotrophic bacterium isolated from Antarctic red snow generated by algal blooms. Despite being non‐photosynthetic, H. nivis was dominantly found in the red snow environment that is exposed to high light and UV irradiation, suggesting that this species can flourish under such harsh conditions. In order to further understand the adaptive strategies on the snow surface environment of Antarctica, the genome of H. nivis P3T was sequenced and analyzed, which identified genes putatively encoding for light‐reactive proteins such as proteorhodopsin, phytochrome, photolyase and several copies of cryptochromes. Culture‐based experiments revealed that H. nivis P3T growth was significantly enhanced under light conditions, while dark conditions had increased extracellular polymeric substances. Furthermore, the expression of several putative light‐reactive proteins was determined by proteomic analysis. These results indicate that H. nivis P3T is able to potentially utilize light, which may explain its dominance on the red snow surface environment of Antarctica.Originality‐significance statementThe role of proteorhodopsin in heterotrophic bacteria is not well‐characterized, as only a handful of proteorhodopsin‐harbouring isolates were shown to have a light‐enhanced phenotype through culture‐based experiments to date. This is the first study that demonstrates light‐stimulated growth and protein expression evidence of photoactive proteins for a non‐marine psychrophile and for a member of the genus Hymenobacter. It is also the first study that provides comprehensive proteome information for this genus. This study presents significant results in understanding the adaptive mechanism of a heterotrophic non‐photosynthetic bacterium thriving on the snow surface environment of Antarctica as well as demonstrating the role of light‐utilization in promoting growth, possibly through proteorhodopsin.
Lofts in translation: Gentrification in the Warehouse District, Regina, Saskatchewan
Authors: Mathews Vanessa 
Published: October 2018

AbstractThis paper contributes to analyses of gentrification in smaller cities. Drawing on a case study of Regina, Saskatchewan's Warehouse District, I document the conversion of post‐industrial structures into loft condominiums and the rise of middle‐class consumption to support this residential base. I demonstrate that while the Warehouse District displays similarities with the paradigmatic case studies on loft living that dominate the literature (e.g., demographics, built form, gentrification), it also highlights how these processes and practices are adapted in peripheral spaces. While the resemblance to the loft scene in SoHo, New York is evident in loft districts internationally, it is less relevant in this smaller urban context. Ultimately, the chic cosmopolitanism of loft living is lost in translation, leaving an incoherent place identity as producers and consumers attempt to engage with global and local ideals of the loft habitus. This paper draws on a qualitative approach including semi‐structured interviews with loft residents, local businesses, and key stakeholders, and discourse analysis of planning and policy materials and media documents.

Published: October 2018

AbstractA series of genistein derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as multifunctional anti‐Alzheimer agents. The results showed that these derivatives had significant acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity; compound 5a exhibited the strongest inhibition to AChE with an IC50 value (0.034 μM) much lower than that of rivastigmine (6.53 μM). A Lineweaver–Burk plot and molecular modeling study showed that compound 5a targeted both the catalytic active site and the peripheral anionic site of AChE. These compounds also showed potent peroxy scavenging activity and metal‐chelating ability. The compounds did not show obvious effect on HepG2 and PC12 cell viability at the concentration of 100 μM. Therefore, these genistein derivatives can be utilized as multifunctional agents for the treatment of AD.
Early Literacy Predictors and Second‐Grade Outcomes in Children Who Are Hard of Hearing

Published: October 2018

This study contrasted the early literacy outcomes of children who are hard of hearing (CHH) with children with normal hearing (CNH). At age 5, prereading skills of oral language, phonological processing, and print knowledge were examined in CHH (N = 180) and CNH (N = 80). The CHH had poorer oral language and phonological processing abilities than the CNH but comparable knowledge of print. At age 8, measures of word reading, and reading comprehension yielded no differences between CHH (N = 108) and CNH (N = 62) except for reading comprehension for the moderately severe CHH. Reading achievement in CHH was found to exceed predictions based on prereading performance. This resilience was associated with gains in oral language during the early school years.

Published: October 2018

SummaryAortic valve surgery is the definitive treatment for aortic stenosis (AS). No specific recommendation is available on how exercise training should be conducted and evaluated after aortic valve replacement (AVR). This study aimed to examine the effect of aerobic exercise training on exercise capacity following AVR. In addition to our primary outcome variable, peak oxygen uptake (peakVO2), the effect on submaximal cardiopulmonary variables including oxygen uptake kinetics (tau), oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) and ventilatory efficiency (VE/VCO2 slope) was evaluated. Following AVR due to AS, 12 patients were randomized to either a group receiving 12 weeks of supervised aerobic exercise training (EX) or a control group (CON). Exercise capacity was assessed by a maximal cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET). There was a significant increase in peak load (+28%, P = 0·031) and in peakVO2 (+23%, P = 0·031) in EX, corresponding to an increase in achieved percentage of predicted peakVO2 from 88 to 104% (P = 0·031). For submaximal variables, there were only non‐statistically significant trends in improvement between CPETs in EX. In CON, there were no significant differences in any maximal or submaximal variable between CPETs. We conclude that 12 weeks of supervised aerobic exercise training induces significant adaptations in cardiopulmonary function following AVR, especially in regard to maximal variables including peakVO2. In addition, we provide novel data on the effect on several submaximal variables following exercise training in this group of patients.
