Anglophone Songs about HIV/AIDS
Authors: Jones Matthew J. 
Published: February 2018

Abstract
This essay focuses on English-language popular songs about HIV/AIDS and offers a five-part typology based not on sonic markers of musical genre but instead on lyric content. Its central argument is that song lyrics carry important political messages and constitute a significant and under-studied contribution to the broader culture of arts-based HIV/AIDS activism. In AIDS-themed elegies, protest songs, pedagogical songs, confessional songs, and a small category of songs in bad taste, songwriters and performers translate the official scientific, medical, and political discourses of HIV/AIDS into vernacular speech idioms. In doing so, ideas and ideologies about HIV/AIDS transcend generic boundaries to effectively reach broad and diverse groups of listeners with varying beliefs, attitudes, and stakes in the fight against HIV/AIDS.
From Queer Musicology to Indecent Theology
Authors: von der Horst Dirk 
Published: February 2018

Abstract
Ned Rorem’s setting of 2 Samuel 1, “Mourning Scene,” and Diamanda Galas’s incorporation of verses from Leviticus in her Plague Mass are two examples of musical queerings of biblical texts. Such musical queerings are an element of the ongoing interpretation of the Bible that is constitutive of Protestant spirituality and identity. Because liberal Protestant theology takes the historical contingency of and ideological division within the Bible seriously, this process of continual reinterpretation of the Bible can critically engage both queer affirmative and heterosexist aspects of the Bible and its reception. After investigating how Rorem and Galas use music to make biblical texts express homoeroticism and denounce homophobia, I place their interpretations in dialogue with three Protestant theologians: Georgia Harkness, Carter Heyward, and Marcella Althaus-Reid. One can trace a historical development from Social Gospel liberalism to Indecent Theology among these theologians that roughly parallels the span of time in which Rorem and Galas were active. Because the theologians under discussion wrote at different historical stages and with different ideological commitments, the extent to which specific musical queerings align with different theological perspectives varies widely. This variety in the current conversation continues the perspectival approach to theology that liberal theology recognizes as mandated by the biblical texts’ heterogeneity.

Abstract
Among people with chronic pain, insomnia is highly prevalent, closely related to the mechanism of central sensitization, characterized by low-grade neuroinflammation, and commonly associated with stress or anxiety; in addition, it often does not respond effectively to drug treatments. This review article applies the current understanding of insomnia to clinical practice, including assessment and conservative treatment of insomnia in people with chronic pain. Cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia can be efficacious for improvements in sleep initiation, sleep maintenance, perceived sleep quality, and pain interference with daily functioning in people with chronic pain. A recent systematic review concluded that with additional training, physical therapist–led cognitive-behavioral interventions are efficacious for low back pain, allowing their implementation within the field. Cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia, as provided to people with chronic pain, typically includes education, sleep restriction measures, stimulus control instructions, sleep hygiene, and cognitive therapy.
Challenges of translating qualitative management data
Authors: Abalkhail Jouharah M. 
Published: February 2018

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the challenges of translating qualitative data from Arabic to English within the field of gender and management studies.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper presents a real experience of translating qualitative data from Arabic to English within the management area in Saudi Arabia. Data were collected from interviewing female managers working in the Saudi public sector.

Findings
Translating qualitative data from Arabic to English is not a straightforward process. During the translation of this cross-cultural qualitative research, three challenges were faced: the embeddedness of the language meaning in the culture, positionality and its influence on data production and language differences. The study found that, in absence of a standard way for translating cross-linguistic qualitative research, a combination of methods is found to be useful to increase the validity and reliability of the study findings. Researchers who conduct qualitative insider research and who translate their own data are in a better position to do cross-language data analysis.

Originality/value
This paper contributes to the literature by showing that translating Arabic texts regarding gender, management and leadership is embedded within historical, cultural, political and institutional contexts, requiring a deep understanding of both language and culture to produce a depth of knowledge. Also, the novelty of this study is that it highlights the importance of being an insider qualitative researcher and translating the research data, as researcher offers significant opportunities for close attention to certain points in the text; and this could add value to the analysis as a way to establish validity of interpretations.
Hidden facets of IT projects are revealed only after deployment
Authors: Saba Mario , Bou Saba Peter , Harfouche Antoine 
Published: February 2018

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to focus on an information technology (IT) deployment project in the specific field of agricultural cooperatives. It also aims to underline the importance of the IT implementation phase, but also the pre-implementation phase.

Design/methodology/approach
A four-year canonical action research project was conducted within a network of more than 300 agricultural cooperatives. Research was carried out both during the IT implementation and after deployment. Key information was gathered through unstructured and unofficial interviews, observations, field notes, meetings, focus groups, and documentary analysis.

Findings
Despite user resistance behavior, the findings show that information systems (IS) implementation may lead to unexpected results that extend beyond the tool’s initial objectives. Indeed, four hidden facets of the tool were revealed: inductor, symbol, pretext, and reference.

Research limitations/implications
Although the research is limited to one single-case study, it puts the emphasis on in-depth research, vs cross-sectional data collection, to analyze the relationship between IT implementation initiatives and organizational intelligence. Furthermore, the authors argue that while IS literature has separately developed related theories (actor-network theory, competitive intelligence), the authors conceptualize a whole theoretic system interrelating the two above-stated theories.

Practical implications
The implication for IS practitioners is that, by focusing only on experiences that have occurred during IT implementation, one may disregard critical information, behaviors and knowledge from unforeseen effects that have occurred after implementation. In future IT projects, IS managers therefore need to capitalize on post-implementation knowledge, through sociology of translation and competitive intelligence, in order to anticipate potential diversions from the initial objectives. Finally, while most IT implementation methods tend naturally to manage resistance maximize users’ satisfaction and to reduce potential resistance, the authors support an alternative approach. It consists into enhancing resistance in order to anticipate and resolve latent resistance behaviors directly or indirectly related to the project.

Originality/value
Despite widespread literature on resistance, appropriation or acceptance during IT projects, there is little research that addresses the impact of IT projects on organizational intelligence, and the kind of behaviors that lead to its failure or success. In the case, the implemented IT tool revealed hidden structural and organizational roles, which were unanticipated by IT designers and managers.

Authors: Wang Zhiyong , Gu Jing , Hou Cheng , Song Ming 
Published: February 2018

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to propose the interaction integral method combing with a XFEM-based local mesh replacement method to evaluate both the stress intensity factors (SIFs) andT-stress at the crack tip near a circular inclusion.Design/methodology/approachSpecial attention is pay to the effect ofT-stress on crack initiation angle in 2D composite medium. The generalized maximum tangential stress criterion is employed during the simulation which simultaneously involves the effects of the mixed-mode SIFs, theT-stress and a physical length scalerc(the size of the fracture process zone).FindingsIt is shown thatT-stress could affect the crack initiation angle significantly for mixed-mode conditions. Varies types of material mismatch are also considered and their influences onT-stress are given quantitatively.Originality/valueThe proposed numerical method allows a considerable flexibility for such problems and provides a basic framework for quasi-static crack growth in materials containing complex interfaces.

Published: February 2018

Purpose
This paper aims to report a prototype of a reliable method for rapid, sensitive bacterial detection by using a low-cost zinc oxide nanorods (ZnONRs)-based electrochemical sensor.

Design/methodology/approach
The ZnONRs have been grown on the surface of a disposable, miniaturized working electrode (WE) using the low-temperature hydrothermal technique. Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersion spectroscopy have been performed to characterize the distribution as well as the chemical composition of the ZnONRs on the surface, respectively. Moreover, the cyclic voltammetry test has been implemented to assess the effect of the ZnONRs on the signal conductivity between −1 V and 1 V with a scan rate of 0.01 V/s. Likewise, the effect of using different bacterial concentrations in phosphate-buffered saline has been investigated.

Findings
The morphological characterization has shown a highly distributed ZnONR on the WE with uneven alignment. Also, the achieved response time was about 12 minutes and the lower limit of detection was approximately 103 CFU abbreviation for Colony Forming Unit/mL.

Originality/value
This paper illustrates an outcome of an experimental work on a ZnONRs-based electrochemical biosensor for direct detection of bacteria.

Abstract

Monitoring the response of wild mammal populations to threatening processes is fundamental to effective conservation management. This is especially true for infectious diseases, which may have dynamic and therefore unpredictable interactions with their host.

We investigate the long‐term impact of a transmissible cancer, devil facial tumour disease (DFTD), on the endemic Tasmanian devil. We analyse trends in devil spotlight counts and density across the area impacted by the disease. We investigate the demographic parameters which might be driving these trends, and use spatial capture‐recapture models to examine whether DFTD has affected home range size.

We found that devils have declined by an average of 77% in areas affected by DFTD, and that there is a congruent trend of ongoing small decline in spotlight counts and density estimates. Despite this, devils have persisted to date within each of nine monitoring sites. One site is showing as yet unexplained small increases in density 8–10 years after the emergence of DFTD.

We also found the prevalence of DFTD has not abated despite large declines in density and that diseased sites continue to be dominated by young devils. The long‐term impact of the disease has been partially offset by increased fecundity in the form of precocial breeding in 1‐year‐old females, and more pouch young per female in diseased sites. The lower densities resulting from DFTD did not affect home range size.

Synthesis and applications. Transmission of devil facial tumour disease continues despite large declines in devil density over multiple generations. Plasticity in life history traits has ameliorated the impact of devil facial tumour disease, however broad‐scale trends in density show ongoing decline. In light of this, devil facial tumour disease and the impact of stochastic events on the reduced densities wrought by the disease, continue to threaten devils. In the absence of methods to manage disease in wild populations, we advocate managing the low population densities resulting from disease rather than disease per se.

Published: February 2018

Abstract

Several decades of frustrated attempts to prevent fires in the Brazilian Savanna (Cerrado) have led to deleterious ecological and management consequences. In 2014, the first Integrated Fire Management (IFM) programme was launched in three protected areas (PAs).

The IFM programme considers local practices, ecological information, management options and aims to create landscape mosaics of different fire histories to conserve biodiversity, reduce the prevalence of late‐dry season (LDS) wildfires, protect fire‐sensitive vegetation and reduce conflicts between PA managers and local communities.

The first 3 years of imposed fire management regimes led to 40%–57% reduction in LDS fires, improved dialogue between researchers, managers and local communities, generating fire management learning communities.

Synthesis and applications. This Integrated Fire Management programme represents a major advance in Cerrado management and conservation, by actively managing fires and decreasing the proportion of areas burnt by late‐dry season wildfires. It can contribute to PAs’ management in the Cerrado and other South American fire‐prone ecosystems. Long‐term monitoring and research are essential to understand the ecological implications and to improve fire management practices.
Diagnostic imaging of ankle syndesmosis injuries: A general review
Authors: Kellett John J , Lovell Gregory A , Eriksen David A , Sampson Matthew J 
Published: February 2018

SummaryLiterature on the various techniques for imaging injuries to the ankle syndesmosis to determine the most appropriate imaging modality for diagnosing syndesmosis ligament disruption and instability was reviewed using the following data sources: Pubmed, Google scholar, SportsDiscus, E‐journals and PLOSone. Search terms used were: syndesmosis paired with injury, imaging, radiology, X‐ray, stress X‐ray, arthrography, ultrasound, nuclear medicine scan, CT scan, MRI and arthroscopy. Articles were selected by reading abstracts and the full article if indicated. Further articles were derived from the references of the primary articles. Plain x‐rays of the ankle will detect approximately half on AP view to two‐thirds on mortise view of syndesmosis injuries. Syndesmosis injuries frequently occur in association with tibial or fibular fractures. Intra‐operative stress radiography failed to detect approximately half of instabilities confirmed at arthroscopy. The current benchmark imaging techniques to diagnose syndesmosis injury and diastasis are arthroscopy and high‐power (3T) MRI. Ultrasound is a promising, developing, cost‐effective imaging technique which is yet to reach its full diagnostic potential. CT and nuclear medicine scans have limited roles. MRI (3T) scanning in the plane of the syndesmotic ligaments is the investigation of choice to detect ankle syndesmosis injuries. In the presence of associated injuries requiring surgery, arthroscopic viewing with stress examination is the diagnostic benchmark when available.

Published: February 2018

SummaryThe biological perturbations associated with incident mortality are not well elucidated, and there are limited biomarkers for the prediction of mortality. We used a novel high‐throughput proteomics approach to identify serum peptides and proteins associated with 5‐year mortality in community‐dwelling men age ≥65 years who participated in a longitudinal observational study of musculoskeletal aging (Osteoporotic Fractures in Men: MrOS). In a discovery phase, serum specimens collected at baseline in 2473 men were analyzed using liquid chromatography–ion mobility–mass spectrometry, and incident mortality in the subsequent 5 years was ascertained by tri‐annual questionnaire. Rigorous statistical methods were utilized to identify 56 peptides (31 proteins) that were associated with 5‐year mortality. In an independent replication phase, selected reaction monitoring was used to examine 21 of those peptides in baseline serum from 750 additional men; 81% of those peptides remained significantly associated with mortality. Mortality‐associated proteins included a variety involved in inflammation or complement activation; several have been previously linked to mortality (e.g., C‐reactive protein, alpha 1‐antichymotrypsin) and others are not previously known to be associated with mortality. Other novel proteins of interest included pregnancy‐associated plasma protein, VE‐cadherin, leucine‐rich α‐2 glycoprotein 1, vinculin, vitronectin, mast/stem cell growth factor receptor, and Saa4. A panel of peptides improved the predictive value of a commonly used clinical predictor of mortality. Overall, these results suggest that complex inflammatory pathways, and proteins in other pathways, are linked to 5‐year mortality risk. This work may serve to identify novel biomarkers for near‐term mortality.
Occupational allergic contact dermatitis caused by antibiotics in healthcare workers – relationship with non‐immediate drug eruptions

Published: February 2018

SummaryBackgroundOccupational allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) in healthcare workers (HCWs) is common, but systemic antibiotics are rarely reported as the cause.ObjectivesCharacterize occupational ACD by handling systemic antibiotics.MethodA retrospective analysis was performed of ACD caused by systemic antibiotics among HCWs patch tested between 2010 and 2016 with a series of systemic antibiotics.ResultsWe studied 4 female nurses aged 28–47 years who developed ACD while working in surgical departments. They had eczema of the hands, and forearms or face, and 1 patient, who previously had exanthema caused by flucloxacillin, also developed a generalized rash following airborne exposure to systemic antibiotics. Patch tests showed positive reactions to ampicillin and cefazolin in 1 patient, to cefotaxime and ceftriaxone in 2 patients, and to several penicillins in another patient. Three patients also reacted to rubber allergens, fragrances, and/or preservatives. All patients admitted having direct and sporadic exposure to systemic antibiotic solutions. Avoidance resulted in a significant improvement of ACD, but 1 patient had to change job.ConclusionsOccupational ACD caused by β‐lactam antibiotics, particularly cephalosporins, is significant in HCWs. Cross‐reactions between β‐lactams are similar to those described in non‐immediate drug eruptions. A relationship between systemic delayed drug hypersensitivity and ACD, as observed in one case, suggests that patients should avoid future use of the antibiotic to which they are sensitized.

BackgroundHeart failure is the biggest cause of mortality and morbidity in people with thalassemia, and iron deposition in cardiac tissue impairs cardiovascular function. Therefore, early detection of cardiac involvement is important to improve the prognosis in these individuals.MethodTwo‐ and three‐dimensional echocardiography was performed to evaluate left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular volumes and diameters, and global longitudinal strain (GLS) in 130 individuals with β‐thalassemia using the speckle tracking method. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was carried out on both the heart and liver. The participants were divided into 2 groups based on cardiac T2* values (normal and abnormal cardiac iron load), and the correlation between cardiac T2* MRI and GLS was evaluated.ResultsThe statistical analysis showed a significant correlation between cardiac T2* MRI and left ventricular global longitudinal strain. There was a significant difference in global longitudinal strain (P < .0001), liver MRI T2*( P < .0001), and left ventricular ejection fraction (P < .001) between the 2 groups. The optimal cutoff value for GLS was −18.5% with sensitivity and specificity 73.0% and 63.0%, respectively (postitive predictive value = 50%, negative predictive value = 82.3%, AUC = 0.742, std. error = 0.046) which predicts T2* value of <20 ms, according to cardiac MRI.ConclusionsThe participants with cardiac iron overload had a lower GLS than those without one. This suggests that GLS may be a useful method to predict myocardial iron overload particularly in β‐thalassemia patients with subclinical cardiac involvement.
