Low-Carbohydrate-Diet Score and its Association with the Risk of Diabetes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Cohort Studies
Authors: Namazi Nazli , Larijani Bagher , Azadbakht Leila 
Published: July 2017

AbstractThe association between a low-carbohydrate diet (LCD) score and the risk of diabetes mellitus (DM) is contradictory. This study is a systemic review of cohort studies that have focused on the association between the LCD score and DM. We searched PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Embase, ISI Web of Science, and Google Scholar for papers published through January 2017 with no language restrictions. Cohort studies that reported relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for DM were included. Finally, 4 studies were considered for our meta-analysis. The total number of participants ranged from 479 to 85 059. Among 4 cohort studies, 8 081 cases with DM were observed over follow-up durations ranging from 3.6 to 20 years. A marginal significant association was observed between the highest LCD score and the risk of DM (RR=1.17; 95% CI: 0.9, 1.51). Moreover, the RRs for studies with energy adjustments showed a significant association (RR: 1.32; 95% CI: 1.17, 1.49; I2: 0%). Based on our findings, study qualities score of less or equal to 7 had a significant influence on the pooled effect size (RR=1.31, 95%CI: 1.15, 1.49; I2: 0%), whereas the overall RR in the studies with quality score more than 7 was 1.09 (95% CI: 0.73, 1.63). In conclusion, we have found that the highest LCD score was marginally associated with the risk of DM. However, more prospective cohort studies are needed to clarify the effects of the LCD score on the risk of DM.
Varying Patterns of Biomarkers of Mineral and Bone Metabolism After Kidney Transplantation
Authors: Makówka Agnieszka , Głyda Maciej , Majewska Ewa-Rutkowska , Nowicki Michał 
Published: July 2017

AbstractSclerostin inhibits Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, thereby decreasing bone formation. Osteoblast stimulating actions of parathyroid hormone (PTH) are mediated by suppression of sclerostin. Thus, sclerostin may reflect both bone metabolism and parathyroid function. The study was aimed to analyze the patterns of the changes of mineral and bone biomarkers for 9 months following kidney transplantation (KTx). Thirty-five patients after KTx were included into a 9-month observational study. Serum creatinine, calcium, phosphorus, 25-OH vitamin D, PTH, fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23), sclerostin, and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP) were measured before KTx, and 1, 2 weeks, and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 9 months thereafter. Urine sclerostin/creatinine ratio was assessed in parallel from month 1 after KTx. Following KTx most serum markers significantly decreased till the end of observation including PTH (by 58%), phosphorus (37%), sclerostin (31%), BAP (28%), and FGF-23 (82%). Most of the decrease was observed during first 2 months after KTx. Serum calcium was increased by 17%. Urine sclerostin/creatinine ratio increased from month 1 till month 6. At KTx serum FGF-23 correlated only with phosphate (r=0.62, p=0.01) and PTH with BAP (r=0.49, p=0.04) but not with sclerostin. At the end of the study neither serum sclerostin nor FGF-23 correlated with other parameters of mineral and bone metabolism. Sclerostin shows the limited utility as the marker of the resolution of bone and mineral metabolism after KTx.
Angling‐Induced Impacts on Recruitment and Contributions to Reproduction in Florida Bass

Published: July 2017

AbstractBlack basses Micropterus spp. are the focus of extensive management efforts throughout North America, where they support a multibillion‐dollar recreational sport fishery. Harvest rates in many bass fisheries have declined in recent decades, yet a growing number of studies have proposed that catch‐and‐release angling practices, such as bed‐fishing in which anglers intentionally target bass while the fish are defending their nests, can decrease individual reproductive success. In response, management agencies have restricted fishing during the spawning period in some regions. We evaluated the impacts of catch‐and‐release bed‐fishing on Florida Bass M. salmoides floridanus nest success, reproductive success, production of fall recruits, and the number of parents that contributed to reproduction. Eighteen replicate populations simulating natural Florida lakes were established, and ponds were assigned either a bed‐fishing (n = 10) or a control treatment (n = 8). Snorkel surveys were conducted throughout the spawning period to track nest formation and nesting success rates, and 10 months after establishment all ponds were drained, recruits counted, and fin clips collected for genetic parentage analysis. A series of candidate generalized linear mixed models were compared using Akaike's information criterion and likelihood ratio tests to assess the relative importance of fishing treatment and year, along with other relevant variables in predicting nest success, recruitment, and reproductive success. We observed significant reductions in nest success rates (z = −2.13, P = 0.03) but not recruitment levels (z = −1.31, P = 0.19), in populations that were bed fished relative to control ponds. Capture history poorly predicted individual reproductive success and the number of adults that contributed to fall recruitment did not differ by treatment (χ2 = 0.06, P = 0.81). Results from this study indicated that bed‐fishing practices may have some impacts on individual nest success but did not influence recruitment or overall reproductive success of Florida Bass at the population level.Received October 5, 2016; accepted February 28, 2017 Published online July 5, 2017

Published: July 2017

This is a founders’ narrative and research paper content analysis of the first 15 years of the Management Spirituality and Religion Interest Group (MSR) of the Academy of Management. Based on archival data and founder interviews, our inquiry recounts how the early collaborators
established the Interest Group. The founders interviewed were identified through preliminary inquiry and from archival sources. As complement and extension, we concurrently conducted a content analysis of the 15 years of MSR Best Papers and Carolyn Dexter Award MSR nominated papers for
Academy internationalization: a corpus epitomizing MSR research and practice. The combined study is a benchmark of founding and institutionalization for current and potential MSR members. By tracing the research trends MSR has taken in light of the founding aspirations, we illuminate the distinctive
values, tensions, and meanings of spirituality in management practices that infuse MSR with its enduring organizational vitality.

Published: July 2017

Abstract
Shrimp trawls are one of the main bycatch generators in artisanal fisheries. Our work evaluated the adoption of low cost devices for artisanal bottom trawling to reduce bycatch assimilation and improve shrimp catches. To evaluate the proposed changes, we evaluated the performance of four different trawl gears from May to July 2015 in Pinheira Beach, Brazil. The hauls were divided into four treatments as follows: (1) hauls with unmodified control gear, (2) hauls with gear that included the kite escape device (KED), (3) hauls with gear that included long sweeps, and (4) hauls with gear that included both the KED and long sweeps. The second trawling group (2) showed the highest reduction in bycatch for all trawl gears. Additionally, all hauls that included the KED and/or long sweeps had improved shrimp catches during the study compared with trawl nets without the KED. During the hauls with KEDs we got the best shrimp-to-bycatch proportion (1:8.9). The modifications proposed can improve trawl gear selectivity while maintaining the shrimp catches.
Functional dissection of the enhancer repertoire in human embryonic stem cells

Published: July 2017

SummaryEnhancers are genetic elements that regulate spatiotemporal gene expression. Enhancer function requires transcription factor (TF) binding and correlates with histone modifications. However, the extent to which TF binding and histone modifications can functionally define active enhancers remains unclear. Here we combine chromatin immunoprecipitation with a massively parallel reporter assay to identify functional enhancers in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) genome-wide in a quantitative unbiased manner. While active enhancers associate with TFs, only a minority of regions marked by NANOG, OCT4, H3K27ac and H3K4me1 function as enhancers, with activity changing markedly with culture conditions. Our analysis also reveals a novel enhancer set associated with housekeeping genes. Moreover, while transposable elements associate with putative enhancers only some exhibit activity. Similarly, within super-enhancers, large tracts are non-functional, with activity restricted to small sub-domains. This catalogue of validated enhancers provides a valuable resource for further functional dissection of the regulatory genome.HighlightsA catalog of functional enhancers in hESCs including a novel housekeeping classActive enhancers feature specific transcription factors and transposable elementsMajor shifts in enhancer activity occur during induction of naive pluripotencySuper-enhancers consist of small units with enhancer function
Three-dimensional cell neighbourhood impacts differentiation in the inner mass cells of the mouse blastocyst

Published: July 2017

AbstractDuring mammalian blastocyst development, inner cell mass (ICM) cells differentiate into epiblast (Epi) or primitive endoderm (PrE). These two fates are characterised by the transcription factors NANOG and GATA6, respectively. Here, we present quantitative three-dimensional single cell-based neighbourhood analyses to investigate the spatial distribution of NANOG and GATA6 expression in the ICM of the mouse blastocyst. The cell neighbourhood is characterised by the expression levels of the fate markers in the surrounding cells, together with the number of surrounding cells and cell position. We find that cell neighbourhoods are established in early blastocysts and different for cells expressing different levels of NANOG and GATA6. Highest NANOG expressing cells occupy specific positions within the ICM and are surrounded by 9 neighbours, while GATA6 expressing cells cluster according to their GATA6 levels. The analysis of mutants reveals that NANOG local neighbourhood is regulated by GATA6.Summary statementThree-dimensional cell neighbourhood, which includes fate marker levels, number of neighbouring cells and cell position, determines cell fate decision in early mouse embryos.
Webrooming behaviour: a conceptual framework
Authors: Arora Sourabh , Sahney Sangeeta 
Published: July 2017

Purpose
Recent statistics on increasing webrooming customers make it topical in the multi-channel retailing domain. The purpose of this paper is to offer an enhanced understanding on “Webrooming behaviour”, an area of concern for e-retailers by proposing an integrated framework grounded on the Theory of planned behaviour and Technology acceptance model.

Design/methodology/approach
The conceptual model presented develops a number of propositions applicable to webrooming behaviour utilizing the rich literature on channel choice behaviour in the multi-channel retailing environment. The propositions are open for verification and can serve the basis for future line of research.

Findings
The model proposed provides basis for understanding the webrooming sequence via search attitude towards online channels, purchase attitude towards offline channels, perceived ease of online search and perceived usefulness of webrooming behaviour. The impact of online risk perceptions and mediating role of (lack of) “trust” have been proposed along with the direct impact of product type and category which offers an holistic view towards understanding the webrooming conduct.

Research limitations/implications
The model proposed lacks empirical verification. There is a need to test the model empirically to validate the model and to find out the suitability of integrated TPB-TAM model.

Practical implications
Webrooming substantially erodes online profits. Before retailers’ strategies to defend webroomers, it is imperative to understand the phenomenon from the consumer’s side. The model proposed is a step in this direction and provides the basis for formulating strategies for holding back the webroomers.

Originality/value
This paper adds to the body of knowledge in retailing by proposing a conceptual model on webrooming behaviour which is an emerging area of research in the present retail landscape.
Brand-driven retail format innovation: a conceptual framework
Authors: Botschen Guenther , Wegerer Philipp K. 
Published: July 2017

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to engage in the research gap regarding the missing link between retail innovation and branding by providing a brand-driven process to systematically develop retail format innovation projects. The so-called “Brand-driven Retail Format Innovation” (BRFI) approach provides a structured three-phase model that serves as a conceptual guide for the development of any type of retail format.

Design/methodology/approach
Longitudinal collaborative action research over a time span of 20 years plus extended case study research to develop the current BRFI approach.

Findings
BRFI is a circular three-phase framework, which integrates branding, and retail format innovation. It starts with the definition of the intended retail brand identity, which in phase 2 becomes translated into concrete touchpoint experiences along the main constituents of a retail format, finally during phase 3 materializing into the new retail format. A case study of a major food retailer is prototypically used to illustrate the application of the designed approach and to report achieved results.

Research limitations/implications
Brand-driven retail format development based on translating socio-cultural meanings into touchpoint experiences to materialize format constituents is opening up new research avenues to govern retail format development. At present the approach is based on retail and services case studies in Western Austria.

Practical implications
The three-phase model represents a practical tool for retail managers, who want to renew and to develop their retail format in a structured way. The approach is applicable to all retail industries from small- to large-scale organizations as well as online and offline environments.

Originality/value
This is the first study engaging in the missing link regarding retail innovation and branding by providing a brand-driven process to systematically develop retail format innovation projects. BRFI locks into anthropological research findings where cultural meanings are considered as the main source for the construction of brand identities whereby the new retail format is transformed around brand-derived touchpoint experiences.
Robust dexterous telemanipulation following object-orientation commands
Authors: Montaño Andrés , Suárez Raúl 
Published: July 2017

Purpose
This paper aims to present a procedure to change the orientation of a grasped object using dexterous manipulation. The manipulation is controlled by teleoperation in a very simple way, with the commands introduced by an operator using a keyboard.

Design/methodology/approach
The paper shows a teleoperation scheme, hand kinematics and a manipulation strategy to manipulate different objects using the Schunk Dexterous Hand (SDH2). A state machine is used to model the teleoperation actions and the system states. A virtual link is used to include the contact point on the hand kinematics of the SDH2.

Findings
Experiments were conducted to evaluate the proposed approach with different objects, varying the initial grasp configuration and the sequence of actions commanded by the operator.

Originality/value
The proposed approach uses a shared telemanipulation schema to perform dexterous manipulation; in this schema, the operator sends high-level commands and a local system uses this information, jointly with tactile measurements and the current status of the system, to generate proper setpoints for the low-level control of the fingers, which may be a commercial close one. The main contribution of this work is the mentioned local system, simple enough for practical applications and robust enough to avoid object falls.
What’s trending in the library cybersphere – Recent conferences and posts focus on data and information literacy
Authors: Oyelude Adetoun A. 
Published: July 2017

Purpose
This edition looks at trending snippets mainly from library conferences around the world in the past few months.

Design/methodology/approach
The conferences and the themes reflect the thoughts and focus of library and information professionals worldwide as seen in internet reports from wikis and blogs.

Findings
Thus far, data and data management is the most focused topic of 2017.

Social implications
Daniel Shapiro in his report on the LITA blog described his experience at the two-day workshop organized by the Library of Congress, George Washington University and George Mason University.

Originality/value
The workshop titled “Collections as data: hack-to-learn” had four datasets and five tools to work with. Over the two-day period, participants worked with data tools such as OpenRefine, Voyant, MALLET, Gephi and Carto. Working with the data and data analysis tools for Shapiro yielded results, but the usual process in research of formulating hypothesis is still crucial even with all the deluge of data.
Predicting Satisfaction with Smart Irrigation Controllers and Their Long‐Term Use among Homeowners in Central Florida
Authors: Morera Maria C. , Monaghan Paul F. , Dukes Michael D. , Breder Eliza 
Published: July 2017

AbstractStudies throughout Florida have shown smart controllers can substantially reduce irrigation under residential high‐water use conditions. However, successful promotion requires understanding the link between controller performance and the mechanisms by which they are adopted. This article compares irrigation water‐use and survey data collected from households installed with soil moisture sensor and evapotranspiration controllers. The study investigated whether the relative change in irrigation use between two years preceding and two years following installation was a reliable predictor of a homeowner's satisfaction with the device and likelihood of continuing to use it. Results indicated relative changes in irrigation use were only significantly associated with the quality of controller programming. Satisfaction with the controller was largely attributable to satisfaction with the appearance of the landscape and the perceived water‐saving effectiveness of the controller whereas the likelihood of its continued use was only significantly predicted by the level of technical knowledge regarding its functioning and whether or not challenges were experienced with it. Targeting homeowners with supplemental user‐friendly information may best support their long‐term adoption of smart controllers while providing irrigation contractors with training in implementation techniques would represent an integrated strategy for added reductions in residential outdoor water use.
Improving Predictive Models of In‐Stream Phosphorus Concentration Based on Nationally‐Available Spatial Data Coverages
Authors: Scown Murray W. , McManus Michael G. , Carson John H. , Nietch Christopher T. 
Published: July 2017

AbstractSpatial data are playing an increasingly important role in watershed science and management. Large investments have been made by government agencies to provide nationally‐available spatial databases; however, their relevance and suitability for local watershed applications is largely unscrutinized. We investigated how goodness of fit and predictive accuracy of total phosphorus (TP) concentration models developed from nationally‐available spatial data could be improved by including local watershed‐specific data in the East Fork of the Little Miami River, Ohio, a 1,290 km2 watershed. We also determined whether a spatial stream network (SSN) modeling approach improved on multiple linear regression (nonspatial) models. Goodness of fit and predictive accuracy were highest for the SSN model that included local covariates, and lowest for the nonspatial model developed from national data. Septic systems and point source TP loads were significant covariates in the local models. These local data not only improved the models but enabled a more explicit interpretation of the processes affecting TP concentrations than more generic national covariates. The results suggest SSN modeling greatly improves prediction and should be applied when using national covariates. Including local covariates further increases the accuracy of TP predictions throughout the studied watershed; such variables should be included in future national databases, particularly the locations of septic systems.
