Authors: Singh Jayati , Kumar Rupesh , Kumar Vinod , Chatterjee Sheshadri 
Published: March 2024

PurposeThe main aim of this study is to identify and prioritize the factors that influence the adoption of big data analytics (BDA) within the supply chain (SC) of the food industry in India.Design/methodology/approachThe study is carried out in two distinct phases. In the first phase, barriers hindering BDA adoption in the Indian food industry are identified. Subsequently, the second phase rates/prioritizes these barriers using multicriteria methodologies such as the “analytical hierarchical process” (AHP) and the “fuzzy analytical hierarchical process” (FAHP). Fifteen barriers have been identified, collectively influencing the BDA adoption in the SC of the Indian food industry.FindingsThe findings suggest that the lack of data security, availability of skilled IT professionals, and uncertainty about return on investments (ROI) are the top three apprehensions of the consultants and managers regarding the BDA adoption in the Indian food industry SC.Research limitations/implicationsThis research has identified several reasons for the adoption of bigdata analytics in the supply chain management of foods in India. This study has also highlighted that big data analytics applications need specific skillsets, and there is a shortage of critical skills in this industry. Therefore, the technical skills of the employees need to be enhanced by their organizations. Also, utilizing similar services offered by other external agencies could help organizations potentially save time and resources for their in-house teams with a faster turnaround.Originality/valueThe present study will provide vital information to companies regarding roadblocks in BDA adoption in the Indian food industry SC and motivate academicians to explore this area further.
Circular building adaptability in multi-residential buildings – the status quo and a conceptual design framework
Authors: Ollár Anita 
Published: March 2024

PurposeThere is a renowned interest in adaptability as an important principle for achieving circularity in the built environment. Circular building adaptability (CBA) could enable long-term building utilisation and flexible use of space with limited material flows. This paper identifies and analyses design strategies facilitating CBA to propose a framework for enhancing the implementation of the concept.Design/methodology/approachInterviews were conducted with professionals experienced in circular building design to explore the questions “How do currently applied design strategies enable CBA?” and “How can CBA be implemented through a conceptual design framework?”. The interviews encircled multi-residential building examples to identify currently applied circular design strategies. The interviews were analysed through qualitative content analysis using CBA determinants as a coding framework.FindingsThe results show that all ten CBA determinants are supported by design strategies applied in current circular building design. However, some determinants are more supported than others, and design strategies are often employed without explicitly considering adaptability. The design strategies that enable adaptability offer long-term solutions requiring large-scale modifications rather than facilitating low-impact adaptation by dwelling occupants. The proposed conceptual design framework could aid architects in resolving these issues and implementing CBA in their circular building design.Originality/valueThis paper’s contribution to CBA is threefold. It demonstrates design strategies facilitating CBA, proposes a conceptual design framework to apply the concept and identifies the need for a more comprehensive application of available adaptability strategies.

Rethinking accounting education for a sustainable future: charting a course for sustainable development goals 2030
Authors: Othman Radiah , Ameer Rashid 
Published: March 2024

Purpose
This paper aims to seek accounting graduates' perspectives on the demand for accounting in their workplaces, on the gaps in accounting education (AE), and on the future of the accounting profession, inspired by the new definition of accounting proposed by Carnegie et al. (2021, 2022, 2023a), to adopt a strong focus on sustainable development goals (SDGs) in AE to inculcate tertiary students with the skills that lead them to approach and apply accounting as a multidimensional technical, social and moral (TSM) practice.

Design/methodology/approach
The online qualitative survey was distributed to 100 randomly selected New Zealand accounting graduates in order to gather insights from their workplaces. All responses from the 30 graduates who completed the questionnaire underwent qualitative analysis using Leximancer software, which automatically identifies high-level concepts and insights and offers interactive visualizations without bias.

Findings
The graduates’ experiences underscore the ongoing significance of technical skills in the New Zealand workplace. They emphasized the lack of non-technical skills training, stressed the necessity of diverse business knowledge and highlighted the importance of automation and digital skills.

Practical implications
The implications for transforming AE involve adopting an activist approach to integrate a TSM perspective into teaching and learning and being open to an interdisciplinary approach to expose tertiary students to the impact of accounting on sustainable development, including collaboration with professional bodies for real-world experiences.

Originality/value
The importance of engaging with SDG-related narratives is stressed to stimulate further discussion, debate and research aimed at identifying practical solutions for AE as a facilitator for SDGs in realizing accounting as a TSM practice.

Published: March 2024

AbstractAvelumab, a programmed cell death ligand 1 blocking antibody, was approved for its first indication in Japan in September 2017 to treat unresectable Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC). Given that the pivotal JAVELIN Merkel 200 study only included a few Japanese patients, this post‐marketing surveillance (PMS) evaluated the safety and effectiveness outcomes of patients with MCC who received avelumab in general clinical practice in Japan. This prospective, non‐comparative, multicenter PMS included data from all patients with unresectable MCC who received avelumab between November 22, 2017 (avelumab launch date) and October 31, 2019. The primary objective was to evaluate avelumab safety (i.e., adverse events [AEs], adverse drug reactions [ADRs], and ADRs of safety specifications). The secondary objective was to evaluate avelumab effectiveness (i.e., objective response rate and overall survival [OS] rate). Seventy‐five evaluable patients were included, of whom 81.3% experienced AEs of any grade (57.3% experienced AEs of grade ≥ 3; 41.3% experienced AEs of grade 5) and 61.3% experienced ADRs (14.7% experienced ADRs of grade ≥ 3; no grade 5 ADRs were observed). The most common ADRs were pyrexia (18.7%), infusion related reaction (10.7%), and chills (6.7%). The most common ADRs of safety specifications were infusion reactions (any grade: n = 21 [28.0%]; grade 3 or 4: n = 3 [4.0%]), thyroid dysfunction (n = 7 [9.3%]), and hepatic function disorders (n = 4 [5.3%]). The median observation period was 51 weeks. An objective response was achieved by 34/75 patients (45.3%; complete response, 24.0%; partial response, 21.3%) and 6‐ and 12‐month OS rates were 77.7% and 59.6%, respectively. This PMS confirmed the clinical tolerability and effectiveness of avelumab in patients with MCC, with no new safety concerns. The risk–benefit profile of avelumab was comparable with that observed in clinical trials and remains favorable for use in general clinical practice in Japan.
Nitrogen and phosphorus availability alters tree‐grass competition intensity in savannas
Authors: Biro Arielle , Wong Michelle Y. , Zhou Yong , Batterman Sarah A. , Staver A. Carla 
Published: March 2024

Abstract

Plant essential macronutrients like nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) can limit savanna tree growth and are important determinants of savanna vegetation dynamics, along with rainfall, fire and herbivory. How nitrogen and phosphorus shape tree‐grass competition and their coexistence remain unclear, hindering our ability to predict how savannas may respond to altered nutrient cycling.

Here, we evaluate (1) if trees and grasses respond differently to N versus P availability, or (2) if grasses are more competitive in low nutrient environments while trees are more competitive in high nutrient environments. To do this, we grew saplings of 6 tree and 1 grass species from the Kruger National Park, South Africa, for 16 weeks under fully factorial nutrient and competition treatments (with/without competitors, low/high rate of N supply and low/high rate of P supply) under a watering regime designed to mimic wet season rainfall in a mesic savanna.

Trees and grasses foraged most aggressively for nitrogen and allocated biomass differently depending on nitrogen availability. Overall, tree growth decreased in competition with grass, even in high nutrient environments where they grew faster. Grasses were always better below‐ground competitors, utilising aggressive nutrient foraging strategies, including high root phosphatase activity in response to nitrogen and large root biomass allocation.

Synthesis. In low nutrient environments (e.g. on nutrient‐poor sandy soils), nutrients may limit tree growth. Nutrient rich environments enable tree growth, but grasses continue to compete effectively with trees. Understanding what this means for ecosystem responses to nutrient availability is not trivial, especially in the context of fire and herbivory. However, it is clear that soil nutrients likely affect tree and grass growth and competition in savannas, which suggests that future changes in nutrient cycling, such as N deposition, may have important effects on savanna vegetation.
Phenotype‐dependent downstream dispersal under ordinary flow conditions in juvenile white‐spotted char
Authors: Yamada Hiroyuki , Wada Satoshi 
Published: March 2024

AbstractAnimal dispersal is often phenotype‐dependent and can exert evolutionary pressures on populations in which it occurs. The evolutionary pressure arising from phenotype‐dependent dispersal is called spatial sorting. We examined the evolutionary pressure arising from spatial sorting (sorting pressure) caused by downstream dispersal in juvenile white‐spotted char Salvelinus leucomaenis under ordinary flow conditions. We conducted outdoor experiments using an artificial channel with 10 steps to investigate the relationship between phenotypic characteristics and the occurrence or distance of downstream dispersal during five daytime hours. Six experiments were conducted using young‐of‐the‐year juveniles collected early in the morning of each experimental day. We focused on two phenotypes, fork length (body size) and station‐holding (SH) behavior, where juveniles remain sedentary on the substrate. Juveniles were assigned to the “SH group” if they exhibited SH behavior for more than 10 s during a 540‐s observation period, and to the “swimming group” if they exhibited SH behavior for less than 10 s. Juveniles in the swimming group had a higher occurrence of downstream dispersal than in the SH group. In addition, large juveniles in the SH group and small juveniles in the swimming group tended to show long dispersal distances. These results suggest an effective sorting pressure against juveniles with active swimming behavior. This sorting pressure may accumulate in isolated char populations located above a tall migration barrier and contribute to the creation and maintenance of the reported interpopulation variation in SH behavior.

Published: March 2024

AbstractBackgroundDrinking commonly occurs in social settings and may bolster social reinforcement. Laboratory studies suggest that subjective effects and mood are mechanisms through which the social context influences alcohol consumption. Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) may be useful for extending these findings to the natural environment. This pre‐registered secondary analysis of EMA data investigated the influence of the social environment on: (1) stimulating and sedating subjective effects of alcohol, (2) contentedness and negative affect, and (3) next‐day evaluations of the drinking occasion.MethodsNontreatment seeking adults reporting past‐month heavy drinking (N = 131; Mage = 28.09; 42% female) completed 7 days of EMA (in the morning, at random, and following drinking prompts), which included questions on their social context (drinking in the presence of known others or alone), contemporaneous stimulating and sedating effects, contentedness and negative affect, alcohol consumption, and next‐day evaluations of a prior day's drinking event (how satisfying/pleasant was drinking). We used multi‐level models in SAS 9.4 M7 software to examine relations among the variables.ResultsContemporaneous subjective effects (stimulating or sedating), negative affect, and contentedness did not significantly depend on the social context. For next‐day evaluations of pleasure/satisfaction from drinking, context effects were dependent on consumption totals. As the total number of standard drinks consumed increased, recollections of pleasure/satisfaction were higher when drinking had occurred with others, relative to alone. At lower consumption totals, next‐day evaluations did not appear to depend on social context.ConclusionsWhen reported contemporaneously, subjective effects and affect do not appear dependent upon the presence of known others. However, heavier drinking events, relative to lighter drinking events, are appraised more favorably the following day when occurring within social contexts.
Exploring enablers of internal knowledge dissemination for boundary‐spanning industrial PhD students
Authors: Abu Sa'a Ehab , Yström Anna 
Published: March 2024

Industrial PhD students, affiliating to industrial firms and academic institutions, hold unique boundary‐spanning positions as they engage in knowledge co‐creation through university–industry collaboration (UIC). Despite much research on knowledge transfer processes and boundary spanners in inter‐organizational contexts, firms who engage in UIC remain uncertain about how to reap the benefits of co‐creating knowledge through industrial PhD projects. This paper investigates the enablers of knowledge dissemination for PhD students in industrial firms. Based on a qualitative case study in Sweden, our study identifies enablers and mechanisms related to individual and organizational actions in the internal knowledge dissemination process. Based on the findings, the paper presents a model that distinguishes between surface and deep knowledge dissemination and elaborates on the symbiotic nature of enablers, with middle management mediating between the individual and organizational levels. The paper enhances research on knowledge dissemination in UIC by specifically addressing industrial PhD students' dissemination of co‐created knowledge. The findings inform organizations in managing their expectations, making more informed decisions and improving dissemination conditions for boundary‐spanning industrial PhD students in UIC.

AbstractAimThe aim of the study was to analyze the association between inflammatory marker profiles and in‐hospital neurological deterioration (ND) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients.MethodsData from patients with minor AIS from the Third China National Stroke Registry were analyzed. Inflammatory cytokine levels within 24 h of admission were measured. The primary outcome was in‐hospital ND (an increase in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score ≥4 from admission to discharge). Associations were evaluated using odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) derived from logistic regression models. Net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) were used to evaluate incremental predictive values.ResultsA total of 4031 patients (1246 women, 30.9%) with a median age of 62 years were included. In‐hospital ND occurred in 121 patients (3%). Each standard‐deviation increase in interleukin (IL)‐6 (OR, 1.17 [95% CI, 1.06–1.31]) and high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein (hsCRP) (OR, 1.43 [95% CI, 1.24–1.66]) levels was associated with increased in‐hospital ND risk. Incremental predictive values for adding IL‐6 (IDI, 0.012; NRI, 0.329) but not hsCRP levels to the conventional risk factors were found.ConclusionIn minor AIS, hsCRP and IL‐6 levels were associated with in‐hospital ND, including IL‐6 levels in prognostic models improved risk classification.

AbstractAimThis study aims to elucidate the cellular dynamics and pathophysiology of white matter hemorrhage (WMH) in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).MethodsUsing varying doses of collagenase IV, a consistent rat ICH model characterized by pronounced WMH was established. Verification was achieved through behavioral assays, hematoma volume, and histological evaluations. Single‐cell suspensions from the hemorrhaged region of the ipsilateral striatum on day three post‐ICH were profiled using single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq). Gene Ontology (GO) and gene set variation analysis (GSVA) further interpreted the differentially expressed genes (DEGs).ResultsFollowing WMH induction, there was a notable increase in the percentage of myeloid cells and oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs), alongside a reduction in the percentage of neurons, microglia, and oligodendrocytes (OLGs). Post‐ICH WMH showed homeostatic microglia transitioning into pro‐, anti‐inflammatory, and proliferative states, influencing lipid metabolic pathways. Myeloid cells amplified chemokine expression, linked with ferroptosis pathways. Macrophages exhibited M1 and M2 phenotypes, and post‐WMH, macrophages displayed a predominance of M2 phenotypes, characterized by their anti‐inflammatory properties. A surge in OPC proliferation aligned with enhanced ribosomal signaling, suggesting potential reparative responses post‐WMH.ConclusionThe study offers valuable insights into WMH's complex pathophysiology following ICH, highlighting the significance and utility of scRNA‐seq in understanding the cellular dynamics and contributing to future cerebrovascular research.
The Role of Feedback in the Statistical Learning of Language‐Like Regularities
Authors: Frinsel Felicity F. , Trecca Fabio , Christiansen Morten H. 
Published: March 2024

AbstractIn language learning, learners engage with their environment, incorporating cues from different sources. However, in lab‐based experiments, using artificial languages, many of the cues and features that are part of real‐world language learning are stripped away. In three experiments, we investigated the role of positive, negative, and mixed feedback on the gradual learning of language‐like statistical regularities within an active guessing game paradigm. In Experiment 1, participants received deterministic feedback (100%), whereas probabilistic feedback (i.e., 75% or 50%) was introduced in Experiment 2. Finally, Experiment 3 explored the impact of mixed probabilistic feedback (33% positive, 33% negative, 33% no feedback). The results showed that cross‐situational learning of words was observed without feedback, but participants were able to learn structural regularities of the miniature language only when feedback was provided. Interestingly, the presence of positive feedback was particularly helpful for the learner, promoting more in‐depth learning of the artificial language.
Assessing the value of citizen scientist observations in tracking the abundance of marine fishes

Published: March 2024

AbstractThe state of biodiversity for most of the world is largely enigmatic due to a lack of long‐term population monitoring data. Citizen science programs could substantially contribute to resolving this data crisis, but there are noted concerns on whether methods can overcome the biases and imprecision inherent to aggregated opportunistic observations. We explicitly test this question by examining the temporal correlation of population time‐series estimated from opportunistic citizen science data and a rigorous fishery‐independent survey that concurrently sampled populations of coral‐reef fishes (n = 87) in Key Largo, Florida, USA, over 25 years. The majority of species exhibited positive temporal correlations between population time‐series, but survey congruence varied considerably amongst taxonomic and trait‐based groups. Overall, these results suggest that citizen scientists can be effective sentinels of ecological change, and that there may be substantial value in leveraging their observations to monitor otherwise data‐limited marine species.
Museum participation as labor
Authors: Hilden Irene , Zavadski Andrei 
Published: March 2024

AbstractSet in the tradition of museum ethnography, this article looks at museum participation through the lens of labor. Based primarily on interview material, it analyzes the lengthy—and laborious—participatory process behind the creation of “Berlin Global,” an exhibition at the Humboldt Forum in Berlin, Germany. The authors explore three aspects of participation related to labor, as identified in their research: the different types of knowledge and experience that participants bring with them, the organization of the participatory work process, and the presentation of the participants' contributions within the exhibition. The authors argue that because museum participation tends to be viewed as an act of civic duty, individually and socially meaningful, the different kinds of labor involved in it are often overlooked, resulting in power imbalances between curators and their external partners. A greater awareness of the labor demanded by participatory work is able to address this problem, decreasing the number of frictions and tensions, and thus making mutual beneficiality, participation's main goal, more achievable.
