Influence of Lorentz forces on nanofluid flow in a porous cavity by means of non-Darcy model
Authors: Sheikholeslami M. 
Published: September 2017

Purpose
This main purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of Lorentz forces on magnetic nanofluid free convection in a porous media. Control volume based finite element method (CVFEM) is chosen to simulate the purpose of this paper. Influences of Darcy number, Fe3O4–water volume fraction, Hartmann and Rayleigh numbers on hydrothermal behavior are presented.

Design/methodology/approach
Magnetic nanofluid flow in a permeable medium is studied numerically using the non-Darcy model. Outputs are obtained by means of CVFEM.

Findings
Results indicated that isotherms become denser near the inner cylinder with augmentation of the permeability of the porous media. The Nusselt number enhances with an increase in buoyancy forces, Darcy number but it detracts with augment of Lorentz forces.

Originality/value
Results depict that the effect of the Hartmann number on rate of heat transfer is more observable in a medium with higher permeability.

Expatriates go shopping: food and shopping acculturation
Authors: Bundy Laurence 
Published: September 2017

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to outline how the food acculturation of British expatriates in Toulouse (France) translates into their shopping behaviours. Having established this population’s specific food acculturation outcomes, mechanisms and motivations, it then studies their buying behaviours and shopping experiences.

Design/methodology/approach
This qualitative research is based on 70 semi-directive interviews of British expatriates in Toulouse. Specific emphasis was placed on facilitating respondents’ expression and analysing the wealth of their answers. The transcribed interviews were thus manually analysed.

Findings
This food acculturation process proves simpler than what seminal papers outlined, i.e. fewer acculturation outcomes, but also more complex: respondents show intertwined outcomes. The marketing channels and store formats respondents privilege in their food provisioning show discrepancies with French buyers’, and the retailers’ mix variables they particularly react to are identified, leading to managerial implications. Overall, both acculturated consumption and shopping practices display fluid behaviours.

Research limitations/implications
This paper investigates a specific situation. Research on other populations or circumstances should confirm its results, especially migrants’ acceptance and satisfaction with local marketing channels and store formats.

Practical implications
Local retailers should address the shopping expectations of this affluent target through minor alterations to their operations without antagonising the locals.

Originality/value
This paper’s main contribution is to extend consumer acculturation literature in two dimensions. First, by studying wealthier migrants escaping “dominated acculturation”, the paper outlines respondents’ “embraced acculturation”. Then, by extending its scope beyond consumption, to shopping experience and store selection, it bridges the gap between consumer acculturation and retailing literatures.

Authors: Roy Debopam , Kalidindi Satyanarayana N. 
Published: September 2017

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to identify factors affecting performance of heritage conservation projects in terms of project management parameters of time, cost, and quality.

Design/methodology/approach
An exploratory study was conducted in India, wherein 41 conservation professionals were interviewed. The method adopted for the study was unstructured interviews, wherein the respondents were asked open-ended questions about the issues faced in such projects and factors affecting project performance.

Findings
The interview recordings and notes, made during the exploratory study, have been manually coded to identify the most frequently mentioned problems, group them into categories, and assess their relative importance.

Research limitations/implications
This paper has presented a broad overview of the challenges faced by heritage conservation projects in general. Further research is necessary to analyse if the challenges depend on factors like type of heritage, project delivery model, and stakeholders involved, and to develop mitigation strategies for these challenges.

Practical implications
The findings from this study can be used by practitioners to improve performance of heritage conservation projects in terms of time, cost, and quality.

Originality/value
The findings of the exploratory study help to better understand the reasons of poor performance of heritage conservation projects in terms of time, cost, and quality. The paper has identified major challenges of the sector, and assessed their relative importance, which can help in developing project management strategy for future projects.
Microfoundations of Small Business Tax Behaviour: A Capability Perspective
Authors: Battisti Martina , Deakins David 
Published: September 2017

AbstractSmall business tax behaviour has received surprisingly little attention. We argue that an organizational capability perspective using microfoundations will allow us to better understand the relationships between different drivers and the dynamics of small business tax behaviour. This study draws on in‐depth interviews with 42 small business owners who are matched with the firms’ factual tax compliance status. Using grounded theory, we build a framework that (a) identifies different microfoundations of small business capability to manage tax and (b) explains the dynamic nature of the relationship between organizational capability and compliance. Findings suggest that high capability does not necessarily translate into high tax compliance and this relationship is mediated by the owner‐managers’ perceptions of taxation as well changes in the economic and regulatory environment.
Interval between IVF stimulation cycle and frozen embryo transfer: Is there a benefit to a delay between cycles?
Authors: Higgins Chloe , Healey Martin , Jatkar Sameer , Vollenhoven Beverley 
Published: September 2017

BackgroundThere is currently limited evidence available regarding ideal timing for frozen embryo transfer (FET). Demonstrating that delaying FETs has few clinical benefits would allow patients to proceed with FET at their earliest convenience.AimsTo examine whether the time interval between stimulation cycle and subsequent FET affects pregnancy and live birth rates.Materials and methodsThis retrospective cohort study, based in a multi‐site private in vitro fertilisation (IVF) clinic categorised women into two groups: those having FET cycles administered within 25–35 days or 50–70 days of IVF stimulation cycle and embryo freeze. Outcomes measured were clinical pregnancy and live birth rates.ResultsWhen comparing the patients who have had a 25–35 days gap between embryo freeze and FET, to the matched patients who had a 50–70 days gap, the statistically significant results showed an adjusted odds ratio for live birth of 1.31 (1.02–1.67). The adjusted odds ratio for clinical pregnancy in matched case : control analysis was not statistically significant at 1.22 (0.97–1.53).ConclusionA gap of 25–35 days between embryo freeze and FET was associated with improved live birth rates compared to a gap of 50–70 days.
Using the PCaRD digital game‐based learning model of instruction in the middle school mathematics classroom: A case study
Authors: Denham André R. 
Published: September 2017

AbstractCurrently there are few pedagogical models available for mathematics teachers who are interested in digital game‐based learning. The Play Curricular‐activity Reflection and Discussion (PCaRD) model attempts to address this, but lacks the needed exploratory research on its implementation within formal mathematics classrooms. Through the use of semi‐structured interviews, this study examined three middle school teachers’ initial experience using PCaRD, the influence of this experience on their digital game‐based learning knowledge, and their perceptions on how teaching with digital games impacts student achievement. The findings showed teachers feel PCaRD is a sound Pedagogical model, but needed more practice using it to fully realize its usefulness. Also teachers felt the need to make adaptions to PCaRD based on the composition of their class, and had difficulty implementing the reflection and discussion phases. Finally, teachers felt their low achieving students benefitted most from the use of digital games. Future directions for research are also discussed.
Activation of G protein‐coupled oestrogen receptor 1 at the onset of reperfusion protects the myocardium against ischemia/reperfusion injury by reducing mitochondrial dysfunction and mitophagy
Authors: Feng Yansheng , Madungwe Ngonidzashe B , da Cruz Junho Carolina Victoria , Bopassa Jean C 
Published: September 2017

Background and PurposeRecent evidence indicates that GPER (G protein‐coupled oestrogen receptor 1) mediates acute pre‐ischaemic oestrogen‐induced protection of the myocardium from ischaemia/reperfusion injury via a signalling cascade that includes PKC translocation, ERK1/2/ GSK‐3β phosphorylation and inhibition of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening. Here, we investigated the impact and mechanism involved in post‐ischaemic GPER activation in ischaemia/reperfusion injury. We determined whether GPER activation at the onset of reperfusion confers cardioprotective effects by protecting against mitochondrial impairment and mitophagy.Experimental ApproachIn vivo rat hearts were subjected to ischaemia followed by reperfusion with oestrogen (17β‐oestradiol, E2), E2 + G15, a GPER antagonist, or vehicle. Myocardial infarct size, the threshold for the opening of mPTP, mitophagy, mitochondrial membrane potential, ROS production, proteins ubiquitinated including cyclophilin D, and phosphorylation levels of ERK and GSK‐3β were measured.ResultsWe found that post‐ischaemic E2 administration to both male and female ovariectomized‐rats reduced myocardial infarct size. Post‐ischaemic E2 administration preserved mitochondrial structural integrity and this was associated with a decrease in ROS production and increased mitochondrial membrane potential, as well as an increase in the mitochondrial Ca2+ load required to induce mPTP opening via activation of the MEK/ERK/GSK‐3β axis. Moreover, E2 reduced mitophagy via the PINK1/Parkin pathway involving LC3I, LC3II and p62 proteins. All these post‐ischaemic effects of E2 were abolished by G15 suggesting a GPER‐dependent mechanism.ConclusionThese results indicate that post‐ischaemic GPER activation induces cardioprotective effects against ischaemia/reperfusion injury in males and females by protecting mitochondrial structural integrity and function and reducing mitophagy.

Authors: Gauvain Mary 
Published: September 2017

AbstractThe current focus on large‐scale problems emphasizes interdisciplinary research. In this essay, I describe interdisciplinary research and the role of developmental scientists in this endeavor. The goal is to encourage greater involvement by developmental scientists in interdisciplinary research on global problems that affect the well‐being of children and youth. The involvement of developmental scientists in these efforts will increase the effectiveness of many projects, broaden the scope of research in the discipline, and provide information about the experiences of children and youth around the world. To illustrate, I describe my involvement in interdisciplinary research on water conservation and use. I conclude the essay by describing challenges and benefits of engaging in interdisciplinary research, and offer suggestions for developmental scientists interested in this role.
Lung cancer in young women in southern Sweden: A descriptive study
Authors: Fritz Ildikó , Olsson Håkan 
Published: September 2017

AbstractIntroductionLung cancer, a common malignancy and cause of cancer‐related deaths, is strongly linked to several environmental exposures, and thus primarily affects the elderly. Formerly a man's disease, its incidence is rising among women, and lung cancer is now more common in women than men in Sweden. Women are particularly over‐represented among young patients. While overall cancer mortality in Europe is decreasing, female lung cancer mortality is increasing.ObjectivesWe describe the epidemiological presentation of lung cancer in young Swedish women, aiming to pinpoint its risk factors for young women.Methods1159 women with newly diagnosed lung cancer in southern Sweden 1997‐2015 answered questionnaires on their lifestyles and personal and family medical histories. We identified those below age 50.Results70 (6.0%) of 1159 women were below age 50. Most (n = 49, 70.0%) were aged 45‐50; eight (11.4%) were below age 40. The most common lung cancer subtype was adenocarcinoma (n = 33, 47.1%). 12.9% (n = 9) had carcinoid tumors. Most women reported both first‐ and second‐hand tobacco smoke exposure (n = 54, 77.1%); 2.9% (n = 2) reported neither. 17.1% (n = 12) were never‐smokers. 34.3% (n = 24) reported frequent X‐ray radiation exposure. 78.6% reported at least one near relative with cancer. 25.7% reported relatives with lung cancer.ConclusionsLung cancer remains rare in young women, and tobacco smoke exposure is the single greatest risk factor, even for never‐smokers. Thus, avoiding tobacco smoke exposure remains the most important preventive measure against lung cancer for young women in Sweden and elsewhere.
A Simulation for Managing Complexity in Sales and Operations Planning Decisions
Authors: DuHadway Scott , Dreyfus David 
Published: September 2017

ABSTRACTWithin the classroom it is often difficult to convey the complexities and intricacies that go into making sales and operations planning decisions. This article describes an in‐class simulation that allows students to gain hands‐on experience with the complexities in making forecasting, inventory, and supplier selection decisions as part of the sales and operations planning process. The activity may be run during one class period and is flexible enough to accommodate almost any class size. During the simulation, students may apply forecasting techniques, inventory management concepts, and supplier selection processes, while experiencing the effects of supply chain disruptions. This simulation is recommended to be used after forecasting, inventory management, and supplier selection topics have been discussed. An overview of the exercise and evidence of its effectiveness is provided.

Published: September 2017

IntroductionThe head and neck are the second most common locations for pain among HIV‐positive individuals. Most studies were conducted among HIV patients at an advanced stage of the disease.MethodsThis was a cross‐sectional study. Patients with HIV and CD4+ T lymphocyte counts >500 were included. Semi‐structured interview, the Headache Impact Test (HIT‐6), and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale were used.ResultsOf the 119 cases included, 63% were men. The mean age was 35.5 ± 10.4 years. Among the patients, 103 (87%) had headaches, 53 (45%) had migraines, 50 (42%) had tension‐type headaches, and 53 (45%) had substantial and severe impact of headaches. Eleven patients had headaches that started after they had been diagnosed with HIV. These patients had more migraines (72% vs 43%; P < 0.05), greater intensity (8 ± 2 vs 6 ± 2; P < 0.01), and impact (HIT‐6: 60 ± 11 vs 51 ± 12; P = 0.02) of headaches compared to others HIV patients. There were no correlations between CD4 counts and the intensity, frequency, or impact of headaches.ConclusionsHIV‐positive patients had a high frequency of headaches, which had a great impact on patients' lives. The pattern most often found was migraine. There was no correlation between CD4 counts and the severity of headaches.
Gendered Aspects of Conflict, Displacement and Peace Process in Turkey
Authors: Çelik Ayşe Betül 
Published: September 2017

AbstractThe peace process in Turkey, since its inception, has not paid any attention to internal displacement or its gendered aspects. This study analyses how displaced women remember the gendered aspects of displacement and perceive reconciliation and peace. The analysis, based on interviews with 42 internally displaced women, shows that changing domestic and international contexts have substantive impact on how displaced women remember their stories and the meaning they attach to their ethnic identities. Consequently, it suggests that if the peace process is re‐initiated, leaders need to take into consideration that each component of reconciliation (justice, peace, trust towards the state, intergroup relations and truth‐telling) has different difficulties to be overcome when the gendered aspect of displacement is taken into account and consider return not only as a realistic demand but also as a political wish.
Forced Displacement in Turkey: Pushing the Limits of theECHRSystem
Authors: Dinsmore Darren S. 
Published: September 2017

AbstractThis article presents research findings on regional human rights tribunals and forced displacement. It assesses the response of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) system to “village destructions” and “village returns” complaints lodged against Turkey and originating from the conflict between State security forces and thePKK(Partiya Karkarȇn Kurdistan). Within academic literature the role of theECHRin Turkey tends to be reduced to discussion of a handful of substantive decisions. This article argues that there is much to be gained from closer examination of the (changing) dynamics of theECHRin Turkey and the regulation of displacement. Two innovations can be observed from this case‐study: a special level of ‘protective’ access and a proactive approach to fact‐finding. The Turkish cases indicate a need for further investigation of the role of fact‐finding in cases of displacement and the development of context‐specific rules on sustainable returns processes.
The Important Role of Binational Studies for Migration and Health Research: A Review of US‐Mexico Binational Studies and Design Considerations for Addressing Critical Issues in Migrant Health
Authors: Handley Margaret A. , Sudhinaraset May 
Published: September 2017

AbstractThe impact of migration on health is an important and growing concern worldwide. We conducted a literature review of published health literature in PubMed, between January 1999 and February 2015, representing studies including US and Mexico samples and the title word “binational”. Fifty‐nine studies representing three types of study designs were identified. The health issues examined included chronic conditions, mental health, substance abuse, reproductive health, infectious diseases, environmental health, and use of health‐care services. Binational research between the US and Mexico contributes to our understanding of migrant health and offers critical insights into the processes affecting health outcomes in the US and Mexico. Future studies of all designs can pay closer attention to the social determinants of health.
Ethnic Violence, Local Security and Return Migration: Enclave communities in Kosovo
Authors: Joireman Sandra F. 
Published: September 2017

AbstractForced migration has become commonplace in the international political landscape. In 2015, 60 million people were displaced by violence, more than ever before recorded (UNHCR, 2015). While we know that violence leads to displacement, we know little about return migration after conflict – who comes back and where they settle. This article seeks to engage and supplement the literature on return migration after conflict, advocating for a broader understanding of the security choices made by displaced people. Emphasized here is the importance of a local understanding of safety and the role played by enclave communities in providing a secure context in which people can enjoy the society of their co‐ethnics.
Health Insurance, from a Child Language Broker's Perspective

Published: September 2017

AbstractIn the midst of dramatic changes to American health care law there is need to understand the challenges that vulnerable populations encounter in obtaining and managing health insurance. Research has found that child language brokers, children who mediate language and culture for their immigrant families, assist with health‐related matters. We report on focus groups with 17 language brokers living in Central Los Angeles. In this article we detail their experiences language brokering for health insurance and their knowledge of health insurance and policies that apply to their immigrant families. We illuminate some barriers immigrant families face as well as how they navigate them. We conclude with policy implications, particularly in relation to making health insurance more accessible to non‐English speaking and immigrant populations.
PRIMARY SYSTEMIC AMYLOIDOSIS
Authors: LAZARUS L. 
Published: September 2017

SUMMARYA man aged forty‐seven years, with no previous history of cardiac disease, suddenly presented with congestive cardiac failure, an electrocardiogram suggestive of healed infarct and a nephrotic syndrome. Haemoptysis and hmatemesis indicated the involvement of other systems. He died suddenly in his sleep. Autopsy showed generalized amyloid infiltration and no primary cause of amyloidosis.The literature has been briefly reviewed. Primary systemic amyloidosis is a multisystemic disease with protean clinical manifestations. It should be considered in any patient with disease of more than one bodily system, and particularly should it be considered in any patient with cardiac failure of obscure ætiology.
