One Roof, Three Generations: Grandparental Co‐residence and Child Outcomes in China
Authors: Han Wen‐Jui , Whetung Timothy , Mao Xupeng 
Published: August 2019

This study examined the association between grandparental co‐residence and child academic and behavioral outcomes using a sample from Shanghai, China (n = 1,763), and was built on two theoretical perspectives: intergenerational solidarity theory and the contextual model of family stress. These models integrate the impact of residential and relational proximity to grandparents on child well‐being and underscore the importance of family context. This study also explored the moderating effects of family resources using proxies that prior theoretical and empirical studies have found to be important to such associations: family income, parental education, hukou status, and subjective social status. Results indicated that among families without co‐residing grandparents, rural and low‐income parents reported their children to have more externalizing behavioral issues than their respective urban and non‐low‐income counterparts. In addition, children who resided in poorly resourced families (i.e., low family income, low parental education, low subjective social status, or rural hukou status) tended to benefit from living with grandparents compared to their well‐resourced counterparts in terms of lower externalizing and internalizing behaviors reported by teachers. These results do not negate the potential beneficial effects of living with grandparents for children in well‐resourced environments. Implications for practice and policy, as well as future research directions, are discussed.
A Search for Freshwater in the Saline Aquifer of Coastal Bangladesh
Authors: Peters Chelsea N. , Hornberger George M. 
Published: August 2019

AbstractIn the polder region of coastal Bangladesh, shallow groundwater is primarily brackish with unpredictable occurrence of freshwater pockets. Delta building processes, including the codeposition of fresh‐to‐saline porewater and sediments, have formed the shallow aquifer. Impermeable clay facies and the lack of a topographical gradient limit the flow of groundwater and its mixing with surface water so controls on spatial variability of salinity are not obvious. By characterizing groundwater‐surface water (GW‐SW) interactions, this study attempted to identify areas of potable groundwater for the polder communities. We used transects of piezometers, cores, electromagnetic induction, and water chemistry surveys to explore two sources of potential fresh groundwater: (1) tidal channel‐aquifer exchange and (2) meteoric recharge. Fresh groundwater proved difficult to find due to heterogeneous subsurface lithology, asymmetrical tidal dynamics, extreme seasonal fluctuations in rainfall, and limited field data. Geophysical observations suggest substantial lateral variability in shallow subsurface conductivity profiles. Piezometers show varying degrees of tidal pressure attenuation away from the channels. Nevertheless, the active exchange of freshwater appears to be limited due to low permeability of banks and surface sediments. Results indicate that pockets of fresh groundwater cannot be identified using readily available hydrogeological methods, so alternative drinking water sources should be pursued. By better understanding the hydrogeology of the system, however, communities will be better equipped to redirect water management resources to more feasible and sustainable drinking water options.
Numerical and experimental determinations of contact heat transfer coefficients in nonisothermal glass molding

Published: August 2019

AbstractHeat transfer at the interfacial contact is a dominant factor in the thermal behavior of glass during nonisothermal glass molding process. Recent research is developing reliable numerical approaches to quantify contact heat transfer coefficients. In most previous studies, however, both theoretical and numerical models of thermal contact conductance in glass molding attempted to investigate this factor by either omitting surface topography or simplifying the nature of contact surfaces. In fact, the determination of the contact heat transfer coefficient demands a detailed characterization of the contact interface including the surface topography and the thermomechanical behavior of the contact pair. This paper introduces a numerical approach to quantify the contact heat transfer by means of a microscale simulation at the glass‐mold interface. The simulation successfully incorporates modeling of the thermomechanical behaviors and the three‐dimensional topographies from actual surface measurements of the contact pair. The presented numerical model enables the derivation of contact heat transfer coefficients from various contact pressures and surface finishes. Numerical predictions of these coefficients are validated by transient contact heat transfer experiments using infrared thermography to verify the model.
Art‐Based Action Research for Art Education in the North
Authors: Jokela Timo 
Published: August 2019

AbstractThis article introduces the art‐based action research (ABAR) methodology as part of the international discussion of art‐based educational research (ABER). The participatory and dialogical approach of ABAR was inspired by a consideration of the pressure for change in art education stemming from the practices of relational and dialogical contemporary art. The need for ABAR as a tool of culturally decolonising, sustainable art education research was identified in multidisciplinary collaboration with the University of Lapland's (UoL) northern and circumpolar network. The methodology was developed collaboratively by a group of art educators and researchers at UoL to support the artist/teacher/researcher with professional skills for seeking solutions to recognised problems and to promote future actions and aspirations in the changing North and Arctic. This article describes how ABAR has been used in school projects, in doctoral theses and finally in a development project with an impact on regional development in the North. These examples show how art education developed through the ABAR method has supported decolonisation, revitalisation and cultural sustainability in schools, communities and businesses.
A Never‐Ending Painting: The Generosity of Time Spent Making and Learning with Others through Artistic Research
Authors: Shields Alison Lea 
Published: August 2019

AbstractThis article examines the role of spending time with others in and through artistic research and practice. I draw from my doctoral work which took me on a cross‐Canada journey visiting 125 artists in their studios. Following the studio visits, I made a series of paintings of artists’ studios, however a year later these same paintings were cut up and rearranged to create collaborative studio assemblages on the walls of the Tate Exchange Gallery in Liverpool. Drawing on the metaphor of a never‐ending‐painting to examine never‐ending pedagogies, this article examines the evolution of this project through three iterations of the studio paintings. With each iteration, I explore different ways of knowing others through making thus proposing the performative and relational qualities of artistic research. The first iteration allowed me to spend time with artists even in their absence, as I engaged with our conversations through painting their studios, thus blurring the lines between solitary and social art practices. The second iteration allowed me to give up my art to others through asking them to create collages with fragments of my studio paintings. And the third iteration allowed my work to merge with other arts‐based researchers. Through this process, I propose that making art allows for multiple conversations to emerge through spending time getting to know others through art making.

AbstractReclamation of anthropogenically impacted environments is a critical issue worldwide. In the oil sands extraction industry of Alberta, reclamation of mining‐impacted areas, especially areas affected by tailings waste, is an important aspect of the mining life cycle. A reclamation technique currently under study is water‐capping, where tailings are capped by water to create an end‐pit lake (EPL). Base Mine Lake (BML) is the first full‐scale end‐pit lake in the Alberta oil sands region. In this study, we sequenced eukaryotic 18S rRNA genes recovered from 92 samples of Base Mine Lake water in a comprehensive sampling programme covering the ice‐free period of 2015. The 565 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) generated revealed a dynamic and diverse community including abundant Microsporidia, Ciliata and Cercozoa, though 41% of OTUs were not classifiable below the phylum level by comparison to 18S rRNA databases. Phylogenetic analysis of five heterotrophic phyla (Cercozoa, Fungi, Ciliata, Amoebozoa and Excavata) revealed substantial novel diversity, with many clusters of OTUs that were more similar to each other than to any reference sequence. All of these groups are entirely or mostly heterotrophic, as a relatively small number of definitively photosynthetic clades were amplified from the BML samples.
Coloured LED light as a potential behavioural guidance tool for age 0 and 2 year walleye Sander vitreus

Published: August 2019

ABSTRACTBased on existing laboratory research on the visual physiology of walleye Sander vitreus, we tested colours of known spectral sensitivity (i.e., green and orange) using constant and strobing (5 Hz) illumination with an LED‐based light guidance device (LGD). Hatchery‐reared age 0 and 2 years S. vitreus were exposed to these four light combinations as well as an unilluminated control treatment during day and night trials. Age 2 years S. vitreus generally avoided the LGD when light was produced (negative phototaxis) compared with the control, with continuous illumination having a greater effect than strobing. The proportions of both age 0 and 2 year fish exiting illuminating zones of the trial arena did not differ with light colour or strobe rate, suggesting that phototactic behaviours in S. vitreus do not change with ontogeny in these age classes. Our findings confirm that typical behavioural responses of S. vitreus to light stimuli are characterised by avoidance and provide evidence that the use of light for behavioural guidance (deterrence) may be effective at reducing entrainment and impingement of this species on hydraulic barriers during migrations, independent of ontogenetic stage.
Addressing Education, Training, and Employment Supports for Prisoners With Cognitive Disability: Insights from an Australian Programme

Published: August 2019

AbstractThe provision of appropriate education, training, and employment supports for incarcerated people is pivotal to mitigating the risk of recidivism, to improving rehabilitative outcomes, and to securing employment upon release. People with cognitive disability are disproportionately represented in prisons internationally. The vast majority of this group have significantly low levels of education, are unable to participate meaningfully in mainstream prison programs, are more likely to return to prison than their nondisabled peers and are generally excluded from the labor market. There is thus a significant need for specialized in‐prison education, training, and employment programs for this group. However, in Australia and internationally such programs are scant. There is also very little known about good policy and practice in this domain. We present findings from qualitative research conducted on one of the few specialist education, training, and employment program models for prisoners with cognitive disability in Australia. The findings suggest that a practice model informed by and delivered from a well‐considered theoretical base by a collaborative multidisciplinary team capable of adapting mainstream education, training, and employment programs in a flexible and culturally sensitive manner offers an opportunity to provide improved outcomes and greater equity for this highly disadvantaged group. The implications for policy and practice in this domain are discussed. We conclude that the expansion of appropriately designed education, training, and employment programs for prisoners with cognitive disability is critical to protecting the human rights and improving the life trajectories of this highly disadvantaged group.

AbstractHepatitis C virus (HCV) acquisition remains high in key risk environments including injection drug use and sex between men. However, few studies examine the independent contribution of sexual behaviour to HCV acquisition among people who inject drugs (PWID). We estimated HCV incidence and examined sexual behaviour as a time‐varying predictor of HCV acquisition in a prospective cohort study of PWID in Montreal (2004‐2017). Initially, HCV‐negative participants completed behavioural questionnaires and HCV antibody testing (6 months until 2011, 3 months thereafter). A time‐updating exposure variable (no sex, opposite‐sex partner only, ≥1 same‐sex partner) was generated for the previous 6/3 months. Time to HCV seroconversion was examined using Cox regression analysis, adjusted for age, unstable housing and incarceration (both past 3 months), and daily, heroin, cocaine and prescription opioid injecting (all past month). Among 440 PWID (baseline: median age 33 years, 18.9% female, 1.4% HIV‐positive), 156 participants seroconverted during follow‐up (overall incidence rate: 11.9/100 person‐years [PY]). Incidence was lowest in the no sex group (8.70 and 2.91 cases/100 PY in males and females, respectively) and highest in the ≥1 same‐sex partner group (24.14 and 21.97 cases/100 PY in males and females, respectively). Among males, HCV risk was 47% lower in those reporting no sex compared to ≥1 same‐sex partner (adjusted hazard ratio: 0.53, 95% confidence interval: 0.28, 0.99). In this cohort of PWID, reporting recent same‐sex partners was associated with greater risk of HCV acquisition among males, necessitating targeted harm reduction strategies that consider the complex interplay of sexual and injecting risk behaviours.
The systemic inflammatory response as a source of biomarkers and therapeutic targets in hepatocellular carcinoma
Authors: Sanghera Chandan , Teh Jhia J. , Pinato David J. 
Published: August 2019

AbstractThe pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) strongly relates to inflammation, with chronic up‐regulation of pro‐inflammatory mediators standing as a potential unifying mechanism that underscores the origin and progression of HCC independent of aetiology. Activation of the diverse pro‐inflammatory mediators either within the tumour or its microenvironment is part of an active cross‐talk between the progressive HCC and the host, which is known to influence clinical outcomes including recurrence after radical treatments and long‐term survival. A number of clinical biomarkers to measure the severity of cancer‐related inflammation are now available, most of which emerge from routine blood parameters including neutrophil, lymphocyte, platelet counts, as well as albuminaemia and C‐reactive protein levels. In this review, we summarise the body of evidence supporting the biologic qualification of inflammation‐based scores in HCC and review their potential in facilitating the prognostic assessment and treatment allocation in the individual patient. We also discuss the evidence to suggest modulation of tumour‐promoting inflammation may act as a source of novel therapeutic strategies in liver cancer.

Published: August 2019

ContextHigh‐stakes medical examinations seek to be fair to all candidates, including an increasing proportion of trainee doctors with specific learning differences. We aimed to investigate the performance of doctors declaring dyslexia in the clinical skills assessment (CSA), an objective structured clinical examination for licensing UK general practitioners.MethodsWe employed a cross‐sectional design using performance and attribute data from candidates taking the CSA between 2010 and 2017. We compared candidates who declared dyslexia (‘early’ before their first attempt or ‘late’ after failing at least once) with those who did not, using multivariable negative binomial regression investigating the effect of declaring dyslexia on passing the CSA, accounting for relevant factors previously associated with performance, including number of attempts, initial score, sex, place of primary medical qualification and ethnicity.ResultsOf 20 879 CSA candidates, 598 (2.9%) declared that they had dyslexia. Candidates declaring dyslexia were more likely to be male (47.3% versus 37.8%; p < 0.001) and to have a non‐UK primary medical qualification (26.9% versus 22.4%; p < 0.01), but were no different in ethnicity compared with those who never declared dyslexia. Candidates who declared dyslexia late were significantly more likely to fail compared with those candidates who declared dyslexia early (40.6% versus 9.2%; p < 0.001) and were more likely to have a non‐UK medical qualification (79.3% versus 15.6%; p < 0.001) or come from a minority ethnic group (84.9% versus 39.2%; p < 0.001). The chance of passing was lower for candidates declaring dyslexia compared to those who never declared dyslexia and lower in those declaring late (incident rate ratio [IRR], 0.82; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.70–0.96) compared with those declaring early (IRR, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.93–0.97).ConclusionsA small proportion of candidates declaring dyslexia were less likely to pass the CSA, particularly if dyslexia was declared late. Further investigation of potential causes and solutions is needed.
Radical alterity in theZhuangzi: On the political and philosophical function of monsters
Authors: Galvany Albert 
Published: August 2019

AbstractAn extraordinary horde of aberrant, deformed, and grotesque beings inhabits the writings collected in theZhuangzi.Crippled, malformed, hideous, foolish, eccentric, and even outlawed individuals conquer the central place of philosophical narration, traditionally proscribed for them, and create one of the most important and intriguing voices echoing through the text. Yet, for all their undeniably significant presence, scholars of ancient Chinese philosophy have paid surprisingly little attention to the topic of monsters. Structured into three sections and adopting a critical, strictly philosophical standpoint, this paper aims to draw attention to the crucial role played by monsters in theZhuangzi.The first section underlines the essential characteristics of these monsters and, most particularly, their disruptive dimension together with the challenge they pose to philosophical thinking. The second section offers a detailed review of the recent bibliography on theZhuangziwith regard to analysis of these aberrant figures. Finally, based on contributions in the work of Jacques Rancière, the third section highlights the political scope embodied by the monstrous beings of theZhuangzi.
Outsiders’ Responsibility to Answer for Crime
Authors: Gallant Kenneth S. 
Published: August 2019

AbstractR. A. Duff has revived the tradition of “answerability” for crime. In this philosophical and jurisprudential tradition, a person is answerable to the criminal law of a state and the process of that state’s courts only if there is some appropriate relationship between the state and the person. Duff’s great contribution has been to develop the idea of accountability of persons to a state or other polity as a philosophical notion which, he argues, underlies all just implementations of criminal law. Duff has centered his views around the relationship between the citizen and the polity (in today’s world, the state) to which the citizen belongs. His focus has been on insiders, rather than outsiders.This article argues that, in the current world, the relationship among cocitizens, outsiders, and the state is based in part on the moral idea that the state exists to protect citizens from evil acts, specifically those that we call public and criminal wrongs, wherever the acts originate. Outsiders understand this, and understand that states other than their own use criminal law to protect their citizens.Duff’s writings contain an idea which turns out to be very useful in cases of outside acts, even though he does not apply it directly to them. Some states or other entities may have only an incomplete relationship with an accused person (compared with the relationship of citizen and state), but nonetheless may have the moral and political authority to try her for crime. This paper extends this notion to show that such incomplete relationships exist in a great many common cases of outsiders (noncitizens who act outside the territory of a state) who commit crime. These relationships support criminal prosecution of outsiders, so long as we admit that protection of persons from crime is a legitimate goal of the criminal law.
The Common Core between Human Rights Law and International Criminal Law: A Structural Account
Authors: Zysset Alain 
Published: August 2019

AbstractLegal scholars and theorists have recently drawn a more sustained attention to the link between international human rights law (hereafter IHRL) and international criminal law (hereafter ICL). This concerns both positive and more normative accounts of the link. Whether positive or normative, the predominant approach to constructing the link issubstantive. This overlap is normatively justified in similar terms by reference to a subset of moral human rights. In this paper, I offer an alternative to the substantive approach. After identifying two flaws in the substantive approach (the problem ofthresholdand the problem ofethical neutrality), I defend what I call astructuralaccount by focusing on duty‐holders. I start by reconstructing two structural characteristics common to IHRL and ICLquainternational legal regimes: who has theauthorityto address violations of IHRL and ICL, and who can beliablefor those violations. I then infer thatpublic authority(functionally construed) constitutes the common structural core of IHRL and ICL. I rely on the extraterritorial application of IHRL and on the collective dimension of ICL violations to further support the argument. I finally offer an argument explaining the normative point of those structural features. I hold that IHRL and ICL (their adjudicative and liability regimes) are both necessary (but clearly not sufficient) to render this exercise of public authority legitimate to its subjects.
