Mind in eBay, body in Macy’s
Authors: Banerjee Syagnik , Longstreet Phil 
Published: November 2016

Purpose
With the ubiquitous diffusion of mobile-enabled internet, individuals are constantly immersed in both virtual and physical environments. While this causes distractions, lower attention spans and disasters such as texting while driving and walking, it also creates synergies and smoother navigational experiences. Technology developers, marketers and policy-makers are both concerned and intrigued to understand how to deploy these mobile technologies so as to optimize their disruptive impact. In this paper, the authors aim to develop a framework of dual consciousness to understand the potential causes and outcomes of individual’s simultaneous presence in physical and virtual worlds.

Design/methodology/approach
A careful review of past academic literature on behavior, as well as media reports of incidents of disruptions, led the authors to construct a 2 × 2 framework depicting behaviors that indicated high-low consciousness in physical, as well as virtual worlds.

Findings
In dual environments, individuals either dissociate from one of the environments or integrate both environments. While the former is driven by the multiplicity of irrelevant roles and goals, oblivion of relevant roles, perception of group norms and performance of practiced routine tasks, the latter is driven by strong executive control processes, focused singular goals and usage of the virtual environment to reinforce their physical tasks. The most affected parties are retailers, service providers, digital marketers and social media marketers.

Originality/value
Most prior research in interactive marketing examine effects of online stimuli on online behavior. This paper identifies the noise created by physical context on clicks as well as the interference created by virtual stimuli on physical purchases and service experiences.
Reconceptualizing the notion of relations underlying performance measurement models
Authors: Islam Syrus 
Published: November 2016

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to reconceptualize the notion of relations underlying performance measurement models (PMMs) and explicate the ample exciting research opportunities that this reconceptualized viewpoint offers.

Design/methodology/approach
This is a conceptual paper, which primarily builds on and extends the contemporary research that challenges the traditional viewpoint that cause-and-effect relations are a necessary element of every PMM.

Findings
The reconceptualized viewpoint suggests that a PMM can be built on any combination of cause-and-effect, finality and logical relations, as opposed to only cause-and-effect relations. This paper presents several exciting research opportunities that the reconceptualized perspective offers.

Originality/value
The different types of relations underlying PMMs and their appropriate validation techniques are a relatively novel concept and also, a complex phenomenon which has received very limited attention in the accounting literature. This paper extends this nascent literature by outlining the research implications of this novel concept.
An ethical perspective on performance measurement in the public sector
Authors: Narayan Anil K. 
Published: November 2016

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to provide an ethical perspective that goes beyond best practice in performance measurement systems in the public sector to help minimise unintended and unethical effects.

Design/methodology/approach
The paper draws on the ethical concepts of bounded ethicality, ethical blind spots and ethical fading to help illuminate the dark side of performance measurement in public sector organisations.

Findings
An understanding of the psychological tendencies that create unethical behaviours will assist compliance with ethics and morality and is a way forward towards minimising the unintended consequences of performance measurement in the public sector.

Practical implications
The findings will assist public sector managers by providing a greater understanding of why so many unethical acts occur and how to overcome ethical failures in the design and use of performance measurement systems.

Originality/value
The study adds value by contributing to performance measurement literature on the need to recognise the limitations of the human mind and innate psychological processes that make people systematically and unknowingly engage in unethical behaviour. The ethical concepts proposed in this paper go beyond the best practice notions of performance measurement and extend the toolkit of performance measurement techniques in the public sector.
The governance of inter-firm co-development projects in an open innovation setting
Authors: Biswas Sharlene , Akroyd Chris 
Published: November 2016

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to examine the governance of inter-firm co-development in an open innovation setting and show how a stage-gate product development process can be used to support this relationship.

Design/methodology/approach
The authors adopt a qualitative case-study approach informed by ethnomethodology. Data were obtained via semi-structured interviews and document analysis.

Findings
They found that in an open innovation setting – where the producing partner relies on a research partner for all product development activities – a stage-gate product development process can act as a governance mechanism, as it enables the development of trust and cooperation which supports the co-development relationship.

Research limitations/implications
The implication of this finding is that a stage-gate process can be a flexible governance mechanism, which can adapt over time in relation to the needs of the co-development partners in an open innovation setting. This also lays the groundwork for future research to explore the applicability of this tool in other settings, e.g. outsourcing arrangements as well as help guide the design and implementation of future governance mechanisms.

Originality/value
In the context of accounting research, this paper helps practitioners and academics understand how a stage-gate process can be used as a governance mechanism to manage and control co-development projects in an open innovation setting.

Published: November 2016

SummaryA number of pharmaceutical steroid synthons are currently produced through the microbial side‐chain cleavage of natural sterols as an alternative to multi‐step chemical synthesis. Industrially, these synthons have been usually produced through fermentative processes using environmental isolated microorganisms or their conventional mutants. Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2155 is a model organism for tuberculosis studies which uses cholesterol as the sole carbon and energy source for growth, as other mycobacterial strains. Nevertheless, this property has not been exploited for the industrial production of steroidic synthons. Taking advantage of our knowledge on the cholesterol degradation pathway of M. smegmatis mc2155 we have demonstrated that the MSMEG_6039 (kshB1) and MSMEG_5941 (kstD1) genes encoding a reductase component of the 3‐ketosteroid 9α‐hydroxylase (KshAB) and a ketosteroid Δ1‐dehydrogenase (KstD), respectively, are indispensable enzymes for the central metabolism of cholesterol. Therefore, we have constructed a MSMEG_6039 (kshB1) gene deletion mutant of M. smegmatis MS6039 that transforms efficiently natural sterols (e.g. cholesterol and phytosterols) into 1,4‐androstadiene‐3,17‐dione. In addition, we have demonstrated that a double deletion mutant M. smegmatis MS6039‐5941 [ΔMSMEG_6039 (ΔkshB1) and ΔMSMEG_5941 (ΔkstD1)] transforms natural sterols into 4‐androstene‐3,17‐dione with high yields. These findings suggest that the catabolism of cholesterol in M. smegmatis mc2155 is easy to handle and equally efficient for sterol transformation than other industrial strains, paving the way for valuating this strain as a suitable industrial cell factory to develop à la carte metabolic engineering strategies for the industrial production of pharmaceutical steroids.

Published: November 2016

BackgroundReward deprivation has been implicated in major depressive disorder and severe substance abuse, but its potential relation to alcohol use disorder (AUD) symptoms in non‐treatment‐seeking young adult drinkers is less clear. Depression is often comorbid with alcohol misuse, so relations of AUD with reward deprivation might be due in part to the presence of depressive symptoms in young adults. Behavioral economic theory views addiction as a state that is related in part to deficits in drug‐free rewards, and therefore requires an investigation into whether reward deprivation has a direct relation to alcohol misuse that is, at least partially, independent of mood.MethodsThis study evaluates the contribution of 2 facets of reward deprivation (reward availability and experience) to alcohol use, AUD symptoms, and depression in a sample of young adult heavy episodic drinkers. Data were collected from 392 undergraduates (60.4% female, 85.1% Caucasian) who reported recent heavy drinking (83.7% with at least 1 AUD symptom).ResultsLow reward availability (environmental suppression) was significantly associated with both DSM‐5 AUD symptoms and alcohol‐related problems after controlling for age, gender, depressive symptomatology, and drinking level.ConclusionsThis study provides support for behavioral economic models that emphasize reward deprivation as a unique risk factor for AUD that is independent of mood and drinking level. Limited access to natural rewards may be a risk and/or maintaining factor for AUD symptoms in college student drinkers.

Published: November 2016

Background and ObjectivesThe Providers’ Clinical Support System for Medication Assisted Treatment (PCSS‐MAT) initiative focuses on training and mentoring health professionals in the treatment of opioid use disorders (OUD) using pharmacological strategies. Led by the American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry (AAAP), PCSS‐MAT is a consortium representing four of the five national professional organizations authorized by DATA 2,000—AAAP, American Osteopathic Academy of Addiction Medicine, American Psychiatric Association, and American Society of Addiction Medicine. DATA organizations are authorized to train physicians to prescribe buprenorphine for OUD treatment. The primary aim of PCSS‐MAT is to substantially increase evidence‐based practices with medications for OUD.MethodsThis review describes the development of PCSS‐MAT, an ongoing national initiative funded by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), to address the training needs posed by this critical public health problem. Core initiatives include: (1) Training and mentoring activities for primary care physicians; (2) Outreach to multidisciplinary professional organizations, (3) Creating a resource portal for families, patients, and communities for OUD treatment.ResultsEducational outreach to providers addresses the needs of patients with OUD and common co‐occurring psychiatric and medical disorders.Discussion and ConclusionsThe overall scope of PCSS‐MAT is to increase access to evidence‐based treatment of substance use disorders as a public health priority. Recently enacted legislation requires office‐based opioid treatment programs to offer all Food and Drug Administration‐approved (FDA) forms of MAT.Scientific SignificanceWorking with health care providers to effectively deliver MAT is key to integrating behavioral and physical medicine.

SummaryAtelectasis occurs in the majority of children undergoing general anaesthesia. Lung ultrasound has shown reliable sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing anaesthesia‐induced atelectasis. We assessed the effects of a recruitment manoeuvre on atelectasis using lung ultrasound in infants undergoing general anaesthesia. Forty infants, randomly allocated to either a recruitment manoeuvre group or a control group, received volume‐controlled ventilation with 5 cmH2O positive end‐expiratory pressure. Lung ultrasound examination was performed twice in each patient, the first a minute after starting mechanical ventilation of the lungs and the second at the end of surgery. Patients in the recruitment manoeuvre group received ultrasound‐guided recruitment manoeuvres after each lung ultrasound examination. The incidence of significant anaesthesia‐induced atelectasis at the second lung ultrasound examination was less in the recruitment manoeuvre group compared with the control group (25% vs. 80%; p = 0.001; odds ratio (OR) 0.083; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.019–0.370). The median (IQR[range]) lung ultrasound scores for consolidation and B‐lines on the second examination were lower in the recruitment manoeuvre group compared with the control group; 6.0 (3.0–9.3 [0.0–14.0]) vs. 13.5 (11.0–16.5 [8.0–23.0]); p < 0.001 and 6.5 (3.0–12.0 [0.0–28.0]) vs. 15.0 (10.8–20.5 [7.0–28.0]); p < 0.001, respectively. The lung ultrasound scores for consolidation on the first and second examinations showed a negative correlation with age (r = −0.340, p = 0.008; r = −0.380, p = 0.003). We conclude that ultrasound‐guided recruitment manoeuvres with positive end‐expiratory pressure proved useful in reducing the incidence of anaesthesia‐induced atelectasis in infants, although 5 cmH2O positive end‐expiratory pressure alone was not sufficient to eliminate it. In addition, the younger the patient, the more susceptible they were to atelectasis.
Mycobacterium ulcerans in the Daintree 2009–2015 and the mini‐epidemic of 2011
Authors: Steffen Christina M. , Freeborn Helen 
Published: November 2016

BackgroundMycobacterium ulcerans infection (Buruli ulcer) is the third most common mycobacterial disease in humans, with presentations ranging from self‐limiting skin nodules and ulcers to aggressive infiltrative infections with extensive oedema, fat and skin necrosis. The two foci in Australia are in Victoria and Far North Queensland. We present the 2009–2015 case series for the Queensland focus with special reference to the 2011 spike of 64 cases.MethodsThis case series is based on a combination of prospectively and retrospectively collected data on 95 confirmed cases of M. ulcerans between 2009 and 2015 from the endemic area, consisting of 88 Category 1 lesions (single lesion less than 5 cm), three Category 2 (5–15 cm plaques) and four Category 3 (one multiple lesions, three oedematous infection).ResultsEighty‐nine patients underwent surgery. Thirty‐two patients received antibiotics. Management details for three patients were unavailable. Recurrent disease was identified in six patients (6%).Conclusion
Mycobacterium ulcerans infection (Buruli ulcer) is an endemic but uncommon infection in Far North Queensland with usually fewer than 10 cases per year. Small ulcers predominate. Most were excised and antibiotic treatment was frequently adjuvant rather than therapeutic. The 64 cases in 2011 was unexpected, not duplicated subsequently, and may relate to local climatic variations. Local awareness of the disease facilitated early presentation and diagnosis in most cases, enabling timely treatment while lesions were small and easily managed.

BackgroundPassage of flatus and stool represents a key milestone in recovery after colonic resections. Colorectal surgeons may hold varied expectations regarding recovery rates after left‐ versus right‐sided colectomies, but there is currently little evidence to inform post‐operative care. This study prospectively compared gut function recovery after left‐ versus right‐sided resections.MethodsProspective data were analysed from 94 consecutive patients undergoing elective colorectal resections with primary anastomosis at Auckland City Hospital. Patients having ileostomies were excluded. Primary analysis compared time to first bowel motion between left‐ versus right‐sided resections, excluding patients who developed prolonged post‐operative ileus, while secondary analyses compared length of stay, rates of prolonged ileus and other complications.ResultsAnalysis included 42 patients with left‐sided and 52 with right‐sided resections. No significant differences were observed for complications (P = 0.1), length of stay (P = 0.9) or development of prolonged ileus (P = 0.2). Rate of return of bowel function was faster in patients after left‐sided resections (median 2.5 versus 4 days; P = 0.03 by Log‐rank (Mantel–Cox) test), when patients with prolonged post‐operative ileus were excluded. An association was also identified between length of bowel resected and time to recovery of bowel function for right‐sided (P = 0.02) but not left‐sided resections (P = 0.9).ConclusionThis study shows that for patients who do not progress to prolonged ileus, those with left‐sided resections experience faster return of bowel function when compared with those having right‐sided resections. The reason for this finding is currently unknown and deserves further attention.

Published: November 2016

AbstractPurposeTo report the first early postoperative results and safety profile after microhook ab interno trabeculotomy (μLOT).MethodsThis initial retrospective observational case series included 24 consecutive glaucomatous eyes of 17 Japanese patients (7 men, 10 women; mean age ± standard deviation, 66.7 ± 17.9 years) who underwent μLOT. The trabeculotomy extent, surgical time, perioperative complications, interventions for complications and additional glaucoma surgeries during the follow‐up for more than 3 months were collected by reviewing the medical and surgical records. The intraocular pressure (IOP), numbers of antiglaucoma medications, logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution visual acuity (VA), anterior chamber (AC) flare and corneal endothelial cell density (CECD) were compared preoperatively and postoperatively.ResultsThe trabecular meshwork was incised for a mean of 3.6 ± 0.5 clock hours temporally, 3.7 ± 0.5 clock hours nasally and total 7.3 ± 0.6 clock hours during the 6.2 ± 1.6‐min surgery. The mean preoperative IOP of 25.9 ± 14.3 mmHg and number of antiglaucoma medication of 3.3 ± 1.0 decreased significantly (p = 0.0002 and p = 0.005, respectively) to 14.7 ± 3.6 mmHg and 2.8 ± 0.8 at the final visit at 188.6 ± 68.8 days postoperatively. Compared with preoperatively, the final VA, AC flare and CECD did not change significantly. Hyphema with niveau formation (nine eyes, 38%) and washout of hyphema (two eyes, 8%) were the most common postoperative complication and intervention, respectively. At the final visit, 19 eyes (79%) achieved successful IOP control of 18 mmHg or less and a 15% reduction or greater.ConclusionMicrohook trabeculotomy normalizes the IOP during the early postoperative period in patients with glaucoma.

Published: November 2016

AbstractPurposeThe aim of this study was to provide a comprehensive comparison of reliability of corneal topographic measurements in keratoconic eyes using swept‐source optical coherence tomography (OCT) and a combined Placido–Scheimpflug imaging.MethodsA total of 30 eyes of 30 patients were included. The mean age was 31.2 ± 8.4 years. Two consecutive topographic measurements were obtained for one eye of each patient using swept‐source OCT (CASIA) and combined Placido–Scheimpflug imaging (TMS‐5). Test–retest reliability of CASIA and TMS‐5 measurements including central corneal thickness (CCT) and thinnest corneal thickness (TCT), keratometry at steep (Ks) and flat (Kf) axes, average keratometry (Avg K), cylinder, and, best‐fit spheres (BFS) of the anterior and posterior corneal surfaces were evaluated.ResultsThere was no systematic or scaling bias in any parameter in both devices. Systematic differences between CASIA and TMS‐5 were found in posterior corneal Kf, Avg K and BFS, CCT and TCT (p ≤ 0.002); scaling differences between CASIA and TMS‐5 were also found in CCT and TCT (p ≤ 0.002). Both machines illustrated adequate reliability. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) ≥0.952 was recorded for all parameters measured with CASIA and ICC ≥ 0.914 was recorded for all parameters on TMS‐5. CASIA showed significantly higher ICCs in CCT and TCT, and posterior corneal BFS (p < 0.001).ConclusionsThis study showed significant differences in posterior corneal surface and corneal thickness measurements between swept‐source OCT and combined Placido–Scheimpflug imaging in eyes with keratoconus. Swept‐source OCT might be preferred over Placido–Scheimpflug imaging owing to better repeatability of measurements.

AbstractObjectivesPrivate dental practitioners constitute approximately 40% of all registered dentists in Malaysia, and this group affords an avenue for prevention and early detection of oral cancer. However, such activities are still limited. This study investigated the feasibility of incorporating opportunistic screening of oral cancer in the private dental setting.MethodsDentists were recruited through two main dental associations in Malaysia and attended a 1‐day training session on recognizing abnormalities within the oral cavity. Following the training, the dentists conducted screening and provided risk habits cessation advice at their respective clinics for 6 months. The impact of the program was evaluated by determining the number of patients who were screened and/or provided with risk habits cessation advice.ResultsTwenty‐six dentists took part in the program and conducted opportunistic screening on a total of 2603 individuals. On average, they screened about 23.0% of their patients and 5.1% were given risk habits cessation advice. Notably, dentists who had lower patient load were more likely to conduct opportunistic screening.ConclusionsWhile the participating private dentists state that they have a role in performing opportunistic screening and providing risk habits cessation advice, these activities are still not a priority area in the private clinics, strongly suggesting that strategies to motivate dentists in this setting are urgently needed.
