Overcoming the solar PV retrofit challenge in strata properties: identifying discrete segments for targeted interventions
Authors: Charters Ben , Daly Matthew , Heffernan Troy 
Published: February 2025

PurposeThis article discusses research addressing apartment owners’ reluctance to adopt solar photovoltaic (PV) technology by focusing on factors directly relevant to strata property owners. The research utilised a motivation-opportunity-ability (MOA)-based conceptual model and market segmentation, identifying discrete segments within this population with regards to their attitudes to solar PV adoption and informing solar PV adoption interventions tailored to each.Design/methodology/approachThe research utilised a tailored survey distributed to strata property owners. To identify segments within the resulting 547-respondent sample, latent class analysis and k-means cluster analysis were performed.FindingsData analysis revealed three discrete segments within this sample: “Frustrated Advocates”, who are highly supportive of strata solar but are less likely to consider it feasible for their particular strata scheme and who might respond to an ongoing collaborative intervention; “Passive Supporters”, who are more confident that strata solar would be feasible for their scheme but less enthusiastic in their personal support; and “Older Avoiders”, who are indifferent to strata solar in principle, unwilling to support it in practice, and who might require a carrot-and-stick approach that recognises their actual motivations.Research limitations/implicationsThe research does not test interventions targeting the identified segments. However, its findings can inform tailored interventions and subsequent case studies, and influence broader research into multi-stakeholder decision-making.Practical implicationsThis article proposes intervention strategies based on the segments' identified characteristics, to encourage and support adoption of solar PV in existing strata properties.Social implicationsThis article could help strata property owners and their tenants to access an important form of renewable energy.Originality/valueThrough the application of an MOA-based model, this article enhances extant literature by enabling the conceptualisation of the directly relevant factors facing strata property owners seeking to adopt solar PV, particularly the need for collective approval from diverse stakeholders, and demonstrates how a segmentation-based methodology can provide robust findings with regards to their resulting attitudes.

Systematic review and meta‐analysis of peripheral blood inflammatory markers in hidradenitis Suppurativa
Authors: Li Yan‐Han , Chuang Shu‐Han , Yang Hui‐Ju 
Published: February 2025

AbstractDespite the systemic inflammatory implications of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), the relationship between systemic inflammatory markers and HS has not been definitively established in the existing literature. This review aimed to evaluate the relationship of peripheral blood inflammatory markers such as erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C‐reactive protein (CRP), neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (PLR), monocyte‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (MLR), pan‐immune‐inflammation value (PIV) and systemic immune‐inflammation index (SII) with the presence and severity of HS. A comprehensive search of the PubMed, Embase and Cochrane databases was conducted. Studies with data on these peripheral blood inflammatory markers in HS patients were included. A meta‐analysis was performed using standardized mean differences to evaluate the association between these inflammatory markers and HS. Our study included 23 research articles that included 2623 cases and 22 015 controls. The results demonstrated that (1) CRP, ESR, NLR, and SII levels were significantly higher in HS patients than controls, and (2) CRP, ESR, PIV, and SII positively correlated with HS severity between Hurley stages I and II and II and III. NLR and PLR also correlated with severity between stages II and III. CRP, ESR, NLR and SII are significantly associated with the presence of HS, while CRP, ESR, SII, and PIV are important indicators of HS severity. NLR and PLR become particularly significant in groups with severe HS. Our results underscore the systemic inflammatory involvement in HS and suggest that these inflammatory markers could be valuable in clinical practice for screening and monitoring the progression of HS.

ABSTRACTRabies is a fatal, acute progressive encephalomyelitis caused by the rabies virus and other Lyssaviruses. Several other clinical conditions can mimic rabies. Antemortem laboratory diagnosis remains challenging and requires multiple or serial sampling for confirmation. Measurement of host‐based biomarkers is an emerging area of research in infectious diseases; however, a reliable biomarker for rabies remains elusive. In this study, neurofilament light chain (NfL), an established marker of neuronal injury, has been investigated as a potential diagnostic marker for rabies. NfL levels were measured using the Simoa NfL v2 kit in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples received for routine diagnostic testing from encephalitis cases (rabies, n = 31; other encephalitides, n = 30) and controls (n = 24). The median serum NfL level in the rabies group was significantly higher than that in the control group (adjusted p  < 0.001), as well as the other encephalitides group (adjusted p = 0.024). Furthermore, the median CSF NfL level in the rabies group was significantly higher than that in the other encephalitides group (p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in serum or CSF NfL levels in rabies cases with different clinical presentations, prior vaccination status, or incubation period. These findings demonstrate for the first time that rabies can be differentiated from other causes of encephalitis by extremely high NfL levels.

Abstract

A longstanding question in evolutionary biology is how within‐population phenotypic variation is maintained under natural selection. The fluctuating selection hypothesis suggests that genetic and phenotypic variation scales with fluctuations in selection over space and time. This implies that phenotypic variation might be greater in populations with fluctuating than stable environmental conditions. However, this aspect has rarely been investigated, likely because habitats with minimal fluctuations are rare.

We addressed this hypothesis by comparing surface and cave populations of the freshwater isopod Asellus aquaticus species complex. Surface environments are spatiotemporally more variable than cave environments, grounding the prediction that the surface ecotype is phenotypically more variable than the cave ecotype. We conducted a longitudinal behavioural study on individuals from four surface and four cave populations, measuring their movement activity and risk‐taking in two light conditions. To account for differences in the natural light regimes between surface and cave populations, half of the individuals were first acclimated under a diurnal light regime and the other half in complete darkness. Initially (acclimation tests), their behaviour was recorded in bright and dark light conditions, respectively. Next, each individual was evaluated six times in alternating light conditions—three times in each light condition.

In addition to assessing average differences, we estimated among‐ and within‐individual variation, as well as repeatability and light‐induced plasticity in behaviours, enabling a comparison of these parameters between the two ecotypes.

In the dark, surface individuals were on average more active and less risk‐taking than cave individuals. As predicted, the surface compared with the cave ecotype displayed greater among‐ and within‐individual variance in movement activity, but not in risk‐taking. Repeatability was not significantly different between ecotypes. Both ecotypes showed significant among‐individual variation for light‐induced plasticity in both behaviours, however, plasticity did not differ between ecotypes. Our results also suggest that more active or risk‐taking individuals exhibited greater plasticity.

Our findings support the hypothesis that fluctuating selection plays a role in maintaining variation for movement activity but not for risk‐taking.

Authors: Siddik Abu Bakkar , Yong Li , Du Anna Min , Vigne Samuel A. , Sharif Arshian 
Published: February 2025

AbstractAmidst escalating global environmental challenges, the banking sector is increasingly turning to artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance environmental sustainability performance (ESP). Our research examines the impact of AI adoption on ESP through the lenses of sustainable banking, Fintech, green finance and green innovation within China's banking institutions. We also explore the complex configurations of these factors, which collectively improve ESP. Grounded in the stimulus–organism–response and affordance theories, we employ a hybrid methodology combining structural equation modelling and fuzzy‐set qualitative comparative analysis to analyse data from an online survey. Our findings indicate that AI adoption significantly boosts ESP in the banking sector, primarily mediated by sustainable banking and green innovation, despite Fintech showing no significant direct impact on ESP. Additionally, we identify specific configurations of AI, sustainable banking, Fintech, green finance and innovation that synergistically enhance ESP, contributing to the ongoing discourse on technological innovation and sustainability in the banking industry. This study emphasizes the pivotal role of AI in driving sustainable outcomes and highlights the need for strategic integration of these factors to achieve higher ESP.

AbstractThe ideological fit between party grassroots and leaderships has long been a concern for political science, with members in general, and young members in particular, thought to be more radical. However, we do not know, first, whether this is still the case and, if it is, what drives members in different ideological directions. To investigate, we propose a new typology of members as radicals, moderates and aligned, and develop a theoretical framework that accounts for how political socialization and party contexts drive congruence and incongruence. We test this using YOUMEM survey data from over 4,000 members of 12 youth wings in six countries. Our results show that while radicals are the largest group in most youth wings, they are more common on the centre‐left than the centre‐right. They tend to have been in the youth wing for longer than aligned members, but are under‐represented among politically ambitious members. Our findings thus shed light on opinion structures within political parties and provide a typology for future research on intra‐party cohesion.

AbstractThis study examines the bioactive properties and quality of commercial carob molasses, commonly consumed by children in Turkey for tonsillitis relief, while highlighting potential risks. Total phenolic content was analyzed spectrophotometrically, and phenolic acid composition by high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). For the determination of health benefits, antimicrobial and antioxidant activity methods were used, and for quality control, pH, 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (5‐HMF), ash content, and water‐soluble solids were determined. The results showed that there were differences in the bioactive properties of the samples. Sample 2 was found to have the highest antioxidant potential (93.86 ± 8.46 ascorbic acid equivalent [AAE]) and metal chelation ability (56.99 ± 1.91%). All carob molasses samples showed antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans, and Candida krusei, and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values ranged from 200 to ≥400 µg/mL, approaching bactericidal/fungistatic effects. It was concluded that 5‐HMF levels in all samples exceeded the 15 mg/kg limit and that many samples' pH values (between 4.71 and 5.18) and ash contents were outside the acceptable ranges. HPLC analysis showed that Sample 2 had the highest gallic acid content (569.423 ± 0.003 µg/100 mg), while Sample 6 had the highest cinnamic acid content (14.838 ± 0.003 µg/100 mg). As a result, it was observed that carob molasses, consumed with the thought that it was beneficial for tonsillitis, was not as effective as expected on the related microorganisms. It was concluded that better quality control in carob molasses production and storage is needed, and stricter food regulations should be implemented for public health.Practical ApplicationCarob is a fruit with important nutritional value for both adults and children thanks to its high sugar, dietary fiber, mineral, and phenolic compound content. The molasses obtained from the fruit is frequently used as a food supplement or to alleviate respiratory tract disorders in children. The findings of this study suggest that carob molasses, which is widely used for its health benefits, is not very effective against pathogens associated with respiratory tract disorders and underline the critical importance of improving quality criteria related to production, quality (5‐hydroxymethylfurfural [5‐HMF], pH levels, and ash content) control, and ensuring its safety after it is placed on the market. This is particularly important for the protection of vulnerable groups, including children, who may be more sensitive to potential risks. It is, therefore, essential that the quality of food products available on the market is rigorously assessed and that health claims are supported by scientific evidence.
Trade frictions and domestic food price stability in the presence of large‐scale climate shocks
Authors: Villoria Nelson B. 
Published: February 2025

AbstractThis article examines how trade policies can mitigate the impact of trade frictions that worsen food price spikes when supply shocks are correlated across trading partners. El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) offers a natural experiment of a global climate phenomenon that induces weather correlation across continents. Gravity‐derived maize prices in southern and eastern Africa increase significantly in response to El Niño extremes. Eliminating border friction reduces self‐sufficiency and the magnitude of El Niño‐driven price increases. Either border elimination or diversification of import sources result in lower and less volatile prices regardless of El Niño occurrences. The results highlight that the ability of trade to alleviate price spikes in the focus regions depends much more on the volume of imports than on the location of trading partners.

ABSTRACTBackgroundRural health services have not had the same opporunities for research as metropolitan health services. Despite increasing awareness of the importance of placed‐based research led by rural health services, there are few examples in the literature on how this can be done.AimsIn this AJRH Practice Insight we aim to provide an update on the establishment and progress of the Colac Area Health (CAH) research unit. This is a health service led research unit that services rural areas classified as MM4‐5 by the Modified Monash Model.MethodsPractice insight.DiscussionThis experience may assist other small or medium‐sized rural health services to undertake the same strategic goal of building locally relevant and place‐based research, along with providing hope for those setting out to integrate research into rural health service organisational structures, while minimising the burden on existing resources.ConclusionThis Practice Insight demonstrates that rural health services can integrate research units into their organisational structures, with minimal burden on resources alongside support from partners who understand the value of rural health research. Lessons learned serve as a valuable example for other rural health services who are seeking to drive their own research programs and support their staff to access research career opportunities.
Inclusive Climate Action: A Scoping Review on the Representation and Inclusion of People With Intellectual Disability in Climate Change Research
Authors: Watfern Chloe , Carnemolla Philippa 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTBackgroundClimate change disproportionally affects people with intellectual disability. Despite this, people with intellectual disability are rarely included in conversations about just environmental futures.MethodsUsing PRISMA‐ScR guidelines, this scoping review maps the academic literature surrounding intellectual disability and climate change.FindingsWe identified three key themes in the 10 articles included in our review. First, people with intellectual disability experience heightened risks and barriers during and after natural disasters. Second, they are largely absent from government disaster planning and response. Third, inclusive education initiatives are in their infancy. Overall, people with intellectual disability are not involved as leaders or collaborators in research or practice related to climate change. The literature focuses almost exclusively on natural disasters as opposed to the broader context of the climate crisis.ConclusionWe take a critical lens, calling for further research that reframes the role of people with intellectual disability in climate change discourses: From helpless victims to collaborators, caretakers, and advocates for a safer climate.
The role of host plants in driving pathogen susceptibility in insects through chemicals, immune responses and microbiota
Authors: Sanaei Ehsan , de Roode Jacobus C. 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTIn this comprehensive exploration, we delve into the pivotal role of host plants in shaping the intricate interactions between herbivorous insects and their pathogens. Recent decades have seen a surge in studies that demonstrate that host plants are crucial drivers of the interactions between insects and pathogens, providing novel insights into the direct and indirect interactions that shape tri‐trophic interactions. These studies have built on a wide range of pathogens, from viruses to bacteria, and from protozoans to fungi. We summarise these studies, and discuss the mechanisms of plant‐mediated insect resistance to infection, ranging from the toxicity of plant chemicals to pathogens to enhancement of anti‐pathogen immune responses, and modulation of the insect's microbiome. Although we provide evidence for the roles of all these mechanisms, we also point out that the majority of existing studies are phenomenological, describing patterns without addressing the underlying mechanisms. To further our understanding of these tri‐trophic interactions, we therefore urge researchers to design their studies to enable them specifically to distinguish the mechanisms by which plants affect insect susceptibility to pathogens.

ABSTRACTWhile antibody‐dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) by anti‐disialoganglioside GD2 monoclonal antibody (mAb) has succeeded in increasing the survival rate of high‐risk patients with neuroblastoma, approximately 40%–50% of patients die from the disease. Recently, we developed induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived natural killer T (iPS‐NKT) cells, which exhibit NK‐like cytotoxicity. However, whether iPS‐NKT cells can induce ADCC function is unclear. Here, we investigated the ADCC of iPS‐NKT cells and the efficacy of the combination treatment of anti‐GD2 mAb and iPS‐NKT cells against neuroblastoma. Anti‐GD2 mAb enhanced the cytotoxicity and secretion of cytokines and cytotoxic granules of iPS‐NKT cells, which expressed CD16 to GD2‐expressing neuroblastoma cell lines. We also examined which Fcγ receptors contribute to ADCC of iPS‐NKT cells. CD16 stimulation against iPS‐NKT cells caused cytotoxicity and secretion of interferon‐gamma, tumor necrosis factor, and granzyme B. In contrast, CD32 and CD64 stimulation did not. In vivo, the intratumor administration of anti‐GD2 mAb and iPS‐NKT cells significantly inhibited tumor growth compared with the other treatment groups: no treatment, anti‐GD2 mAb alone, and iPS‐NKT cells alone. In conclusion, iPS‐NKT cells exhibit CD16‐mediated ADCC, and the addition of iPS‐NKT cells to anti‐GD2 mAb therapy may be a potential approach for immunotherapy against neuroblastoma.
