Abstract
The Integrated Disease Surveillance and Response (IDSR) system was adopted by the Sierra Leone Ministry of Health (MOH) in 2008, which was based on paper-based tools for health data recording and reporting from health facilities to the national level. The Sierra Leone MoH introduced the implementation of electronic case-based disease surveillance reporting of immediately notifiable diseases. This study aims to document and describe the experience of Sierra Leone in transforming her paper-based disease surveillance system into an electronic disease surveillance system. Retrospective mixed methods of qualitative and quantitative data were reviewed. Qualitative data were collected by reviewing surveillance technical reports, epidemiological bulletins, COVID-19, IDSR technical guidelines, Digital Health strategy and DHIS2 documentation. Content and thematic data analyses were performed for the qualitative data, while Microsoft Excel and DHIS2 platform were used for the quantitative data analysis to document the experience of Sierra Leone in digitalizing its disease surveillance system. In the early 2017, a web-based electronic Case-Based Disease Surveillance (eCBDS) for real-time reporting of immediately notifiable diseases and health threats was piloted using the District Health Information System 2 (DHIS2) software. The eCBDS integrates case profile, laboratory, and final outcome data. All captured data and information are immediately accessible to users with the required credentials. The system can be accessed via a browser or an Android DHIS2 application. By 2021, there was a significant increase in the proportion of immediately notifiable cases reported through the facility-level electronic platform, and more than 80% of the cases reported through the weekly surveillance platform had case-based data in eCBDS. Case-based data from the platform are analysed and disseminated to stakeholders for public health decision-making. Several outbreaks of Lassa fever, Measles, vaccine-derived Polio and Anthrax have been tracked in real-time through the eCBDS.

Abstract
Septic arthritis of the sternoclavicular joint is a rare joint infection, and it sometimes leads to a chest wall abscess or mediastinitis. We report a case of a 70-year-old man who was diagnosed with empyema caused by an anterior chest wall abscess extended from septic arthritis of the sternoclavicular joint. It is very rare that arthritis causes empyema combined with an anterior chest wall abscess, and this is the first report of such a case. The patient was successfully treated with surgical drainage.
Galaxies with biconical ionized structure in MaNGA – I. Sample selection and driven mechanisms

ABSTRACT
Based on the integral field unit (IFU) data from Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory (MaNGA) survey, we develop a new method to select galaxies with biconical ionized structures, building a sample of 142 edge-on biconical ionized galaxies. We classify these 142 galaxies into 81 star-forming galaxies, 31 composite galaxies, and 30 AGNs (consisting of 23 Seyferts and 7 LI(N)ERs) according to the [N ii]-BPT diagram. The star-forming bicones have bar-like structures while AGN bicones display hourglass structures, and composite bicones exhibit transitional morphologies between them due to both black hole and star formation activities. Star-forming bicones have intense star formation activities in their central regions, and the primary driver of biconical structures is the central star formation rate surface density. The lack of difference in the strength of central black hole activities (traced by dust attenuation corrected [O iii]λ5007 luminosity and Eddington ratio) between Seyfert bicones and their control samples can be naturally explained as that the accretion disc and the galactic disc are not necessarily coplanar. Additionally, the biconical galaxies with central LI(N)ER-like line ratios are edge-on disc galaxies that show strong central dust attenuation. The radial gradients of H α surface brightness follow the r−2.35 relation, roughly consistent with r−2 profile, which is expected in the case of photoionization by a central point-like source. These observations indicate obscured AGNs or AGN echoes as the primary drivers of biconical structures in LI(N)ERs.

ABSTRACT
Spatially resolved studies are key to understanding when, where, and how stars form within galaxies. Using slitless grism spectra and broad-band imaging from the CAnadian NIRISS Unbiased Cluster Survey (CANUCS), we study the spatially resolved properties of a strongly lensed (μ = 5.4$\pm$1.8) z = 0.8718 galaxy pair consisting of a blue face-on galaxy (10.2 $\pm$ 0.2 log($M/M_\odot$)) with multiple star-forming clumps and a dusty red edge-on galaxy (9.9 $\pm$ 0.3 log($M/M_\odot$)). We produce accurate H $\alpha$ maps from JWST/NIRISS grism data using a new methodology that accurately models spatially varying continuum and emission line strengths. With spatially resolved indicators, we probe star formation on time-scales of $\sim$10 Myr (NIRISS H $\alpha$ emission line maps) and $\sim$100 Myr (UV imaging and broad-band SED fits). Taking the ratio of the H $\alpha$ to UV flux ($\eta$), we measure spatially resolved star formation burstiness. We find that in the face-on galaxy both H $\alpha$ and broad-band star formation rates (SFRs) drop at large galactocentric radii by a factor of $\sim$4.7 and 3.8, respectively, while SFR over the last $\sim$100 Myrs has increased by a factor of 1.6. Additionally, of the 20 clumps identified in the galaxy pair we find that 7 are experiencing bursty star formation, while 10 clumps are quenching, and 3 are in equilibrium (either being in a state of steady star formation or post-burst). Our analysis reveals that the blue face-on galaxy disc is predominantly in a quenching or equilibrium phase. However, the most intense quenching within the galaxy is seen in the quenching clumps. This pilot study demonstrates what JWST/NIRISS data can reveal about spatially varying star formation in galaxies at Cosmic Noon.

Published: May 2024

AbstractAdvances in molecular profiling have facilitated generation of large multi-modal datasets that can potentially reveal critical axes of biological variation underlying complex diseases. Distilling biological meaning, however, requires computational strategies that can perform mosaic integration across diverse cohorts and datatypes. Here, we present mosaicMPI, a framework for discovery of low to high-resolution molecular programs representing both cell types and states, and integration within and across datasets into a network representing biological themes. Using existing datasets in glioblastoma, we demonstrate that this approach robustly integrates single cell and bulk programs across multiple platforms. Clinical and molecular annotations from cohorts are statistically propagated onto this network of programs, yielding a richly characterized landscape of biological themes. This enables deep understanding of individual tumor samples, systematic exploration of relationships between modalities, and generation of a reference map onto which new datasets can rapidly be mapped. mosaicMPI is available at https://github.com/MorrissyLab/mosaicMPI.

Abstract

Introduction
Identifying healthcare utilization and costs associated with active and passive smoking during pregnancy could help improve health management strategies.

Aims and Methods
Data are from the Newborn Epigenetics STudy (NEST), a birth cohort enrolled from 2005 to 2011 in Durham and adjacent counties in North Carolina, United States. Participants included those for whom prenatal serum samples were assayed and for whom administrative data were obtainable (N = 1045). Zero-inflated poisson regression models were used to assess associations between cotinine, adjusted for covariates (eg, race and ethnicity, age at delivery, cohabitation status, and education), and health care utilization outcomes. Generalized linear regression models were used to estimate average total charges. Simulation models were conducted to determine the economic benefits of reducing secondhand smoke and smoking during pregnancy.

Results
Increasing levels of cotinine were positively associated with parent’s number of emergency department (ED) visits (coefficient[b] = 0.0012, standard error [SE] = 0.0002; p &lt; .001), the number of ICU hours (b = 0.0079, SE = 0.0025; p = .002), time spent in the ICU (b = 0.0238, SE = 0.0020, p &lt; .001), and the number of OP visits (b = 0.0003, SE = 0.0001; p &lt; .001). For infants, higher cotinine levels were associated with higher number of ED (b = 0.0012, SE = 0.0004; p = .005), ICU (b = 0.0050, SE = 0.001; p &lt; .001), and OP (b = 0.0006, SE = 0.0002; p &lt; .001) visits and longer time spent in the ED (b = 0.0025, SE = 0.0003; p &lt; .001), ICU (b = 0.0005, SE = 0.0001; p &lt; .001), and IP (b = 0.0020, SE = 0.0002; p &lt; .001). Simulation results showed that a 5% reduction in smoking would correspond to a potential median cost savings of $150 533 from ED visits of parents and infants.

Conclusions
Our findings highlight the importance of smoke exposure cessation during pregnancy to reduce health care utilization and costs for both parents and infants.

Implications
This study reinforces the importance of reducing smoking and secondhand smoke exposure during pregnancy. Focusing on expanding cessation services to this group could help reduce morbidities observed within this population. Furthermore, there is the potential for healthcare cost savings to healthcare systems, especially for those with high delivery numbers. These cost savings are represented by potential reductions in ED, OP, and ICU hours and visits.
Market Development
Authors: Stephenson Kate , Stembridge Zoe 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
This chapter introduces the nature, history, market development, advantages, and disadvantages of company voluntary arrangement (CVA). The CVA gives a mechanism wherein a company and restructure its debts and liabilities with the consent of a majority of its creditors while binding dissenting creditors to continue trading. The process could also restructure the affairs for the benefit of the company's stakeholders as a whole. There is no requirement that a company be insolvent or in financial difficulty to propose a CVA despite the fact that it is a formal insolvency proceeding. The usage of CVAs only increased from 2009 onwards due to the advent of high-street retailers' CVAs compromising landlord creditors and restructure leases portfolios.
Property Law Issues

Published: May 2024

Abstract
This chapter explores the potential for forfeiture of a company's leases due to a CVA's proposal or approval, particularly Landlord CVAs. Landlord CVAs are popular as they enable tenant companies to mitigate or restructure leasehold obligations such as liabilities in paying rent. The proviso for re-entry or forfeiture clause indicates the landlord's right to forfeit being expressly granted by leases. The chapter explains the Debenhams case to expound on the concept of restricting the right of forfeiture. The availability and terms of relief depend on whether or not the CVA changed any covenants which were grounds of forfeiture such as non-payment of rent.

Published: May 2024

PurposeThe document underscores the need for systematic smart mobility policies to advance smart cities, addressing resource waste and environmental issues. Recognizing challenges in adopting efficient smart mobility, the paper seeks to fill a literature gap by identifying governance-related best practices and success factors. The objective is to develop a clear framework for smart mobility adoption with policy implications, especially for Euro-Mediterranean (EuroMed) Smart Cities, reducing congestion and costs while promoting sustainability through data-driven decision-making and integration models.Design/methodology/approachTo conduct the study, we adopt a multiple-case approach, examining different smart mobility applications in three of the world's most relevant smart city contexts according to international rankings, namely New York, Copenhagen and Singapore. Starting with the framework emerging from the research sample, which is representative of three different continents and cultures, a comparative assessment is then made with two EuroMed Smart Cities, highlighting their relative gaps.FindingsThe paper presents an innovative framework for smart mobility that highlights five key success factors. In addition to highlighting related gaps with a sample of EuroMed Smart Cities, it offers guidelines and implications for administrators, policy makers and mobility managers.Originality/valueThis success framework is a powerful tool, framework and guideline with numerous theoretical and managerial implications. Indeed, it directs policymakers, policymakers and mobility managers toward creating innovative business models for sustainable smart mobility, maximizing the efficiency of the centralized urban system, reducing negative externalities, breaking down barriers and pursuing greater efficiency, resilience and equity in the accessibility, mobility and sustainable livability of smart cities.

Published: May 2024

PurposeThis study synthesises the self-determination theory (SDT), expectation-confirmation model (ECM), and protection motivation theory (PMT) to formulate an integrated theoretical framework that elucidates the process of shaping the intention to continue using facial recognition payment (FRP) under the conditional impact of perceived technology security.Design/methodology/approachData from 667 Beijing Winter Olympics visitors with FRP experience were collected through an online survey and analysed using variance based-structural equation modelling (VB-SEM).FindingsThis study reveals that the intention to continue using FRP evolves through three key stages. Initially, in the expectation stage, the multidimensional concept of artificial autonomy (sensing, thought, and action), which is underpinned by self-determination, is pivotal, strongly influencing perceptions of service enhancement and fostering trust in FRP. Subsequently, the confirmation stage underscores the importance of perceived service enhancement and trust as vital drivers in maintaining FRP usage, while also contributing to subjective well-being. Crucially, perceived technology security emerges as a key moderating factor, enhancing positive perceptions and intentions towards FRP, thus influencing its sustained adoption.Originality/valueThis study stands out by revealing the nuanced interplay between artificial autonomy and user perceptions, particularly concerning service enhancement, technology security, and trust, as they influence well-being and the continued adoption of FRP. Robustly grounded in the integrated theoretical framework of SDT, ECM, and PMT, the study’s findings are critical for comprehending the core elements and specific drivers that promote sustained FRP use, especially as we consider its potential widespread implementation. Therefore, this study not only advances theoretical understanding but also offers practical guidance for optimising FRP deployment strategies in a rapidly evolving technological landscape.
Health and safety induction training in the construction industry: a review
Authors: Rantsatsi Ndaleni Phinias 
Published: May 2024

Purpose
Absence of Health and Safety (H&S) induction training can expose workers to construction hazards and risks. To protect workers, construction organisations provide site H&S induction training. This training is used in the construction industry to train workers on organisation, project and client H&S practices and rules. While researchers have recognised its role in creating worker awareness, developing H&S culture and influencing accident rate, but there has been little research. Furthermore, there lacks a review that identifies the research trends, research focus and future research directions on H&S induction training in the construction industry. This study aims to review literature on H&S induction training in the construction industry.

Design/methodology/approach
Scopus, Web of Science, Science Direct and Google Scholar databases were used to identify articles. Initial search produced a total of 278 papers and final analysis resulted in ten articles. Content analysis was applied.

Findings
The identified three contributions to knowledge: (a) identifies specific trajectory or development trends of H&S induction training in the construction industry (three research areas were identified, namely, impact of H&S induction training on H&S culture, impact of H&S induction training on accident rate and barriers affecting supervisor’s skills and ability to conducting H&S induction training), (b) suggestions have been given on the contribution of H&S induction training to H&S culture and (c) future research directions have been proposed. The review provides knowledge that the contribution of H&S induction training to H&S culture is influenced by skills, knowledge and experience of presenter, language used, content covered, mode of delivery, technological tools used, type of assessment and duration.

Research limitations/implications
The review is limited to studies related to H&S induction training in the construction industry. Other safety training studies and industries could have provided different findings. The review is limited to 2012 and 2022 and to ten articles.

Practical implications
Understanding the role of H&S induction training to worker behaviour, H&S culture and outcomes will improve H&S practices and standards within the construction industry. Construction organisations can consider the factors identified in this study to improve the effectiveness of H&S induction training.

Social implications
Understanding the contribution of H&S induction training to H&S culture may help to improve H&S culture.

Originality/value
The study has identified three main research areas and future research directions. It further revealed the factors that researchers, practitioners and policy makers can consider to improve the effectiveness of H&S induction training in the construction industry.
Discovering territorial human resources management (T-HRM) in Informal Territorial Networks (ITNs): an exploratory study
Authors: Niasse Ndiaga , Kane Demba 
Published: May 2024

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to explore practices of Territorial-HRM within a network of shoemakers characterized by informal activities.Design/methodology/approachTerritorial-HRM is a relatively new topic in management sciences, hence a qualitative methodology has been conducted for better exploration. The methodology relies on the development of two series of semi-structured interviews conducted with several members of the network. Data were collected and analyzed based on the thematic analysis method.FindingsResults show a type of Territorial-HRM that stands out from that of the formal territorial networks largely described in the literature in management sciences. This form of Territorial-HRM is characterized by the following specific practices: Territorial Based Recruitment (TBR), External Mobility, Labor Loan, Inter-Boss Training and Collective Learning.Research limitations/implicationsThis study relies on a single research method with a relatively small number of interviews within an informal network in the Senegalese context. The authors recommend replicating the study in other contexts and developing representative samples in order to test or measure the relationships between grounded concepts of Informal Territorial-HRM.Originality/valueThese results reveal a quite different dynamic of the emergence of Territorial-HRM due to the specificity of the network, its informal nature and its socio-cultural anchorage. The paper adds strong enrichment to the Territorial-HRM field of research by laying out its foundation both in Informal Territorial Networks and in the English speaking academic world.
Toward an Economy of Life
Authors: Weber Max 
Published: May 2024

AbstractThis article takes as its point of departure the suggestion by the World Council of Churches (WCC) that the capitalist economic system is the root cause of current crises, in particular the climate catastrophe. In facing the world crises, the ecumenical movement has developed an approach called the “Economy of Life.” Member churches of the WCC, as well as other institutions, are asked to engage with and promote this approach. This article investigates whether and how the Evangelical Church in Germany (EKD), a member church of the WCC, has adopted the concept of an economy of life with its notion of a necessary change of the economic system. The findings show that, in the period analyzed, the EKD did not mention the concept, nor did it oppose or assess the capitalistic and neoliberal economic system.
