The Resource‐worthiness of Environmental Responsibility: A Resource‐based Perspective
Authors: Walker Matthew , Mercado Haylee 
Published: September 2013

AbstractDue to the public/private funding debate and their social and physical presence in the community, the most visible touch‐points for environmental responsibility (ER) are arguably seen among public assembly facilities. However, while cost savings and perceptual benefits are considered the most salient outcomes of ‘going green’, little attention has been paid to the resource‐worthiness of ER. Applying facility manager perceptions to the Resource‐based View of the Firm (RBV), various ER impacts and outcomes were assessed. The RBV dimensions were theorized to influence stakeholder and local impacts, the outcomes of which are image enhancement and economic reward. The structural model results confirm our assertions; however, not all paths were in the hypothesized directions. The results show that as a resource, ER is perceived as valuable and to a lesser extent, rare, by facility managers, but it may not necessarily substitute for other organizational resources.

Published: September 2013

AbstractBackgroundIndividuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are at greater risk of bone fractures than those without diabetes. Certain oral diabetic medications may further increase the risk of fracture. Dipeptidyl peptidase‐IV (DPP‐IV) inhibitors are incretin‐based therapies that are being increasingly used for the management of T2D. It has been hypothesized that these agents may reduce fracture risk in those with T2D. In this study, we used a mouse model of T2D to examine the effects of the DPP‐IV inhibitor, MK‐0626, on bone.MethodsMale wild type (WT) and diabetic muscle‐lysine‐arginine (MKR) mice were treated with MK‐0626, pioglitazone, alendronate or vehicle. The effects of treatment with MK‐0626 on bone microarchitecture and turnover were compared with treatment with pioglitazone, alendronate and vehicle. Osteoblast differentiation was determined by alkaline phosphatase staining of bone marrow cells from WT and MKR mice after treatment with pioglitazone, MK‐0626 or phosphate buffered saline.ResultsWe found that MK‐0626 had neutral effects on cortical and trabecular bone in diabetic mice. Pioglitazone had detrimental effects on the trabecular bone of WT but not of diabetic mice. Alendronate caused improvements in cortical and trabecular bone architecture in diabetic and WT mice. MK‐0626 did not alter osteoblast differentiation, but pioglitazone impaired osteoblast differentiation in vitro.ConclusionsOverall, the DPP‐IV inhibitor, MK‐0626, had no adverse effects on bone in an animal model of T2D or directly on osteoblasts in culture. These findings are reassuring as DPP‐IV inhibitors are being widely used to treat patients with T2D who are already at an increased risk of fractures. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Paleogeographic controls on the onset of the Antarctic circumpolar current

Published: September 2013

AbstractDevelopment of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) during the Cenozoic is controversial in terms of timing and its role in major climate transitions. Some propose that the development of the ACC was instrumental in the continental scale glaciation of Antarctica and climate cooling at the Eocene/Oligocene boundary. Here we present climate model results that show that a coherent ACC was not possible during the Oligocene due to Australasian paleogeography, despite deep water connections through the Drake Passage and Tasman Gateway and the initiation of Antarctic glaciation. The simulations of ocean currents compare well to paleoenvironmental records relating to the physical oceanography of the Oligocene and provide a framework for understanding apparently contradictory dating of the initiation of the ACC. We conclude that the northward motion of the Australasian land masses and the reconfiguration of the Tasman Seaway and Drake Passage are necessary preconditions for the formation of a strong, coherent ACC.

Published: September 2013

AbstractEarly postnatal infection with human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) may contribute to an adverse cognitive outcome in early preterm‐born children (PT). We here set out to explore whether long‐term neurobiological consequences of such an infection are detectable using fMRI in children and adolescents who were born very preterm and who either did (PThCMV+) or did not (PThCMV−) suffer from an early postnatal hCMV‐infection, when compared with typically developing healthy control (HC) subjects. Overall, data from 71 children and adolescents could be included, 34 PT (of which 15 were PT hCMV+ and 19 were PT hCMV−) and 37 HC. Using a recently established “dual use” fMRI task, we investigated language and visuospatial functions. There were significant activation differences in the left hippocampus (PT > HC and PThCMV+ > HC), and in the right anterior cingulate cortex (PThCMV− > PThCMV+) when performing the language task. Surprisingly, only a small region in the occipital cortex showed a significant activation difference (HC > PT HCMV−) when performing the visuospatial task. Targeted analyses revealed differences in gray matter volume, but not density, in several brain regions. Our results suggest that long‐term neurobiological consequences of an early postnatal hCMV infection are detectable even in older children and adolescents formerly born very preterm, compatible with a higher effort when performing a cognitive task. This suggests that measures to prevent such an infection are warranted. Furthermore, an interrelation of brain structure and function was detected that may constitute a severe confound when using fMRI to compare structurally differing groups.

‘Now I See The Difference’ — The Use Of Visual News Of Difference In Clinical Practice
Authors: Sanders Catherine 
Published: September 2013

Differences between events, values, attitudes and relationships provide therapists with the most meaningful data in the search for a circular perspective. Systems change is believed to be dependent on the reception of relevant information by the system.Traditionally, information has been collected verbally and Tomm (1984) outlines a schema of the types of difference questions.However, clinical practice suggests that these questions are not suitable to all clients. Difference questions may be confusing and unproductive when working with young children whose language skills are not fully developed and auditory memory limited. Adults whose verbal skills are limited or whose primary mode for processing information is not auditory, also have difficulty.An alternative visual method for collecting news of difference is proposed, using Tomm's (1984) categories as a basis.Case examples are given of this technique, at the stage of data collection and as a way of marking and reinforcing change through the course of therapy.
Audio‐Video Reviews
Authors: KNOTHE BARBARA 
Published: September 2013

Barbara Knothe, Consultant Psychiatrist, Bouverie Family Therapy Centre, has reviewed two videotapes, produced by Anita Morawetz. The tapes demonstrate Anita's work with two families, seen at the Bouverie Family Therapy Centre. In one tape, Anita supervised one of the trainees on the Training Programme and it is interesting to see how the work of the training group, family and supervisor evolves. The tapes were produced in 1988–1989 and are available from: Bouverie Family Therapy Centre, 31 Poplar Road, Parkville Vic 3052 Tel: (03) 389 2480. The contact person is Ms Kate Gerber, Clerical Officer. There is no charge for borrowing the tapes, although interstate borrowers must pay for postage (“Cash on Delivery” charges). People may borrow 2 tapes at a time, for a period of 2 weeks. Each borrower is asked to sign a form, which will be sent to them, stating they will accept responsibility for the tape and they will respect the confidentiality of the family.Thanks to Anita for producing the tapes and making her work available to other therapists and trainees, for their professional development. Thanks also to Barbara for her reviews and to Bouverie Family Therapy Centre for their generosity and for maintaining an excellent tape library.I would like to encourage other therapists in Australia and New Zealand to produce audio and/or videotapes of their work, on particular areas of interest. David Epston was one of the first therapists to do this — when he produced a videotape called “The Family who loved to stay at Home” which was reviewed by Jim Birch. Many “local” therapists are making recordings of their work and these provide an invaluable resource for training, supervision, consultation and research. If you are interested in producing some material for reviewing and “public” use, please contact me on: (Work) 03 550 130 (Home) 03 898 6983. You may feel overwhelmed by the task, but please don't abandon the idea. Call me and we can talk about this and your ideas. Making tapes for these purposes may not be as difficult or as daunting as you think.
Re‐Marriage — Some Issues for Clients and Therapists
Authors: Hartin Warwick W. 
Published: September 2013

Family re‐formation after dissolution of first marriage is conceptualised in terms of a process involving four stages: 1. The first marriage and its dissolution 2. The divorced family 3. Re‐partnering 4. Achieving family solidarity.It is asserted that the primary conditions for the successful formation of a second family are that the emotional divorce from the first spouse be completed, and that the second family be conceptualised differently from the first. The most important task of the new family is to integrate the members of two former families. Those families which are able to promote flexibility of boundaries within the new system have a greater chance of success.
Marital Therapy — The Therapist
Authors: Hayes Heather 
Published: September 2013

This article applies systems principles to an appreciation of the couple therapist. It offers an overview of the changing role of therapists and addresses the philosophical debate of the therapist as scientist or artist. It demonstrates how the worldviews, beliefs and values of clients and therapists are influenced by, and in turn influence, the therapeutic and wider social contexts to which they belong. The question of how a therapist simultaneously maintains personal values and neutrality is considered.The implications of examining the therapist's role from a systems framework are discussed. It is concluded that research needs to adopt a more holistic methodology and that impasses need to be analysed by examining beliefs at different levels within the systems involved. Finally, a personal account of the effect that therapy has on the therapist is offered.
Impasses of Divorce: Neither Together Nor Apart
Authors: Renouf Emilia 
Published: September 2013

This paper looks at one type of intervention that has made it possible to help separating couples, given to irrationality and engaged in protracting disputes over their children, become more rational parents, capable of using mediation as a method of dispute resolution. The central theoretical formulation in this intervention is the divorce transition impasse.The process involved in overcoming the impasse combines a therapeutic and counselling effort with the mediation. One counsellor/mediator coordinates both phases of the process, by first assessing the impasse and then shifting the factors that created it and moving on to negotiation and implementation of the agreement made.A case seen by the author is presented to illustrate the phases of intervention and the strategies used in each phase. The possibility is raised that this type of intervention offered by specialised counsellor/mediators might prove to the Family Court's advantage in dealing with potentially complex cases, such as access enforcement cases and some ex‐nuptial children disputes.
Naivety and Family Therapy An Interview with John Carpenter
Authors: Jackson Sue 
Published: September 2013

Family therapists have been naive about families, the pressures on them and the contexts of therapy. Therapists should be clear about their roles, sensitive to families' experience of therapy, and resist the temptation to mystify therapy.John Carpenter is Senior Lecturer in Mental Health, University of Kent, Canterbury, England and Co‐Editor of Journal of Family Therapy. He was a guest keynote speaker at the 1991 Australian Family Therapy Conference in Brisbane, and this interview took place shortly afterwards in Melbourne.
Enhanced apoptotic effects of dihydroartemisinin‐aggregated gelatin and hyaluronan nanoparticles on human lung cancer cells

Published: September 2013

AbstractRecent studies suggest that dihydroartemisinin (DHA), a derivative of artemisinin isolated from the traditional Chinese herb Artemisia annua L., has anticancer properties. Due to poor water solubility, poor oral activity, and a short plasma half‐life, large doses of DHA have to be injected to achieve the necessary bioavailability. This study examined increasing DHA bioavailability by encapsulating DHA within gelatin (GEL) or hyaluronan (HA) nanoparticles via an electrostatic field system. Observations from transmission electron microscopy show that DHA in GEL and HA nanoparticles formed GEL/DHA and HA/DHA aggregates that were approximately 30–40 nm in diameter. The entrapment efficiencies for DHA were approximately 13 and 35% for the GEL/DHA and HA/DHA aggregates, respectively. The proliferation of A549 cells was inhibited by the GEL/DHA and HA/DHA aggregates. Fluorescent annexin V‐fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) and propidium iodide (PI) staining displayed low background staining with annexin V‐FITC or PI on DHA‐untreated cells. In contrast, annexin V‐FITC and PI stains dramatically increased when the cells were incubated with GEL/DHA and HA/DHA aggregates. These results suggest that DHA‐aggregated GEL and HA nanoparticles exhibit higher anticancer proliferation activities than DHA alone in A549 cells most likely due to the greater aqueous dispersion after hydrophilic GEL or HA nanoparticles aggregation. These results demonstrate that DHA can aggregate with nanoparticles in an electrostatic field environment to form DHA nanosized aggregates. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The inhibition of oleic acid induced hepatic lipogenesis and the promotion of lipolysis by caffeic acid via up‐regulation of AMP‐activated kinase
Authors: Liao Chung‐Chia , Ou Ting‐Tsz , Huang Hui‐Pei , Wang Chau‐Jong 
Published: September 2013

AbstractBACKGROUNDCaffeic acid (CA) can inhibit toxin‐induced liver injury. In this study, CA is assessed for its lipid lowering potential when oleic acid is used to induce non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease in human HepG2 cells.RESULTSThe results showed that both the triglyceride and cholesterol content are decreased in the HepG2 cells by using the enzymatic colorimetric method. CA enhances the phosphorylation of AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) and its primary downstream targeting enzyme, acetyl‐CoA carboxylase. CA down‐regulates the lipogenesis gene expression of sterol regulatory element‐binding protein‐1 and its target genes, fatty acid synthase in the presence of oleic acid. In addition, CA significantly decreases cholesterol and triglyceride production via inhibition the expression of both 3‐hydroxy‐3‐methyglutary coenzyme A reductase and glycerol‐3‐phosphate acyltransferase. These effects are eliminated by pretreatment with compound C, an AMPK inhibitor.CONCLUSIONSThese results demonstrate that CA inhibits oleic acid induced hepatic lipogenesis and the promotion of lipolysis via up‐regulation of AMP‐activated kinase. © 2013 Society of Chemical Industry

AbstractAttention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is an increasingly recognized comorbid condition in subjects with substance use disorders (SUDs).This paper describes the methods and study population of the International ADHD in Substance Use Disorders Prevalence (IASP) study. Objectives of the IASP are to determine the prevalence of ADHD in adult treatment seeking patients with SUD in different countries and SUD populations, determine the reliability and validity of the Adult ADHD Self‐report Scale V 1.1 (ASRS) as ADHD screening instrument in SUD populations, investigate the comorbidity profile of SUD patients with and without ADHD, compare risk factors and protective factors in SUD patients with and without a comorbid diagnosis of ADHD, and increase our knowledge about the relationship between ADHD and the onset and course of SUD.In this cross‐sectional, multi‐centre two stage study, subjects were screened for ADHD with the ASRS, diagnosed with the Conner's Adult ADHD Diagnostic Interview for DSM‐IV (CAADID), and evaluated for SUD, major depression, bipolar disorder, anti social personality disorder and borderline personality disorder.Three thousand five hundred and fifty‐eight subjects from 10 countries were included. Of these 40.9% screened positive for ADHD.This is the largest international study on this population evaluating ADHD and comorbid disorders. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Published: September 2013

ABSTRACTIntroductionCancer‐related fatigue (CRF) has been suggested to be associated with the occurrence of chemotherapy‐induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). This study aims to evaluate the potential of CRF in predicting the occurrence of CINV.MethodThis is a prospective, observational study. Recruited patients received moderately to highly emetogenic single‐day chemotherapy regimens. On the day of chemotherapy, patients were instructed to provide a score (Likert scale of 0–10) to describe how CRF interfered with his or her ability to engage in daily activities and a score for how severe it was. Patients were then given a standardized 5‐day diary to document their CINV events.ResultsA total of 473 eligible patients (median age: 55 years, interquartile range (IQR): 48–61 years) were recruited, with most of the patients diagnosed with gastrointestinal (45%) and breast (37%) cancers. The median score of fatigue interference was 3 (IQR: 0–5). After confounders were adjusted for, patients with low fatigue interference scores (≤3) were more likely to achieve complete protection (no nausea, no vomiting, and no breakthrough antiemetics) of CINV (adjusted odds ratio = 1.57, 95%CI [1.05, 2.35], p = 0.027).ConclusionThis is the largest study to date to evaluate the association between CRF and CINV. Patients experiencing CRF possessed a higher risk of poor control for CINV. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Using genetically modified tomato crop plants with purple leaves for absolute weed/crop classification

Published: September 2013

AbstractBACKGROUNDWeed/crop classification is considered the main problem in developing precise weed‐management methodologies, because both crops and weeds share similar hues. Great effort has been invested in the development of classification models, most based on expensive sensors and complicated algorithms. However, satisfactory results are not consistently obtained due to imaging conditions in the field.RESULTSWe report on an innovative approach that combines advances in genetic engineering and robust image‐processing methods to detect weeds and distinguish them from crop plants by manipulating the crop's leaf color. We demonstrate this on genetically modified tomato (germplasm AN‐113) which expresses a purple leaf color. An autonomous weed/crop classification is performed using an invariant‐hue transformation that is applied to images acquired by a standard consumer camera (visible wavelength) and handles variations in illumination intensities.CONCLUSIONThe integration of these methodologies is simple and effective, and classification results were accurate and stable under a wide range of imaging conditions. Using this approach, we simplify the most complicated stage in image‐based weed/crop classification models. © 2013 Society of Chemical Industry
