Published: February 2025

PurposeThe property industry has been experiencing massive transformation due to rapid technological advancement in the last decade. A large body of literature has attempted to identify the challenges confronting property professionals, with some examining the impact brought by Property Industry 4.0 on the future workforce. To effectively address the challenges, however, we need participation from diverse stakeholders, as previously proposed strategies have often only considered perspectives from specific cohorts and lacked broader engagement. Hence, this study aims to formulate comprehensive strategies to address the challenges facing our future workforce in the age of Property Industry 4.0.Design/methodology/approachFor the first time, we invited a unique lineup of stakeholders to our co-design workshops. These include property leaders, property professionals, recent property graduates, property students, property academics, program directors, as well as university leadership executives, to make sure the outcomes are relevant, effective and user-oriented.FindingsFour strategies were recommended to future-proof our property graduates: (1) enhancing AI-focused content in universities and collaborating with industry stakeholders, (2) regulating AI adoption by bodies like the Australian Property Institute (API), (3) introducing industry certifications to address ethical concerns and (4) developing students' soft skills via internships and networking events in collaboration with professional bodies.Originality/valueThis study is the first to employ a co-design workshop, incorporating the perspectives of all stakeholders in crafting potential solutions. These include property leaders, property practitioners, recent property graduates, property academics, property students and senior school executives (e.g. deputy dean and deputy head of education).
The role of leadership in interpersonal dysfunctional conflict within Australian Football League (AFL) club boards
Authors: Takos Nick , O'Boyle Ian , Murray Duncan 
Published: February 2025

PurposeUsing descriptions from participants of ten Australian Football League (AFL) Club boards, the authors offer a rare, in-depth account of board member perceptions of interpersonal relationships between board members and the relational conflict evident. These findings suggest that interpersonal behaviours related to egos, social awareness, transparency and trust, ultimately leads to dysfunctional conflict.Design/methodology/approachThis paper examined the leadership influence on board dysfunctional conflict using the concept of authentic leadership (AL). The authors dismantled board member interpersonal dynamics to explore whether AL may alleviate the issues associated with dysfunctional relational conflict.FindingsIn addition, we highlighted the President has a key leadership role, whereby if they are characterised by AL attributes, they can facilitate higher levels of trust amongst board members and ultimately minimise board fragmentation.Originality/valuePractically, our findings assist boards to identify some of the behavioural antecedents to dysfunctional relationships, therefore assisting leaders to attenuate their influence on board fragmentation and improve board functioning.
Act for the best, prepare for the worst—Defining strategic mesopredator triggers that safeguard apex predator eradication benefits

Abstract

Eradicating invasive species is critical for supporting threatened species recovery. In multi‐invaded ecosystems, it may only be feasible to remove one or some of the several invasive species that are present. However, this may not deliver the desired benefits, and shifting the complement of threats in some cases can have unexpected adverse consequences. A priori evaluation of potential outcomes, and identifying critical thresholds driven by other invasives, can inform decision‐making and decision triggers for adaptive management responses to ensure benefits are realised.

We use population viability analyses informed by field data to evaluate the potential outcomes of a single species removal from a multi‐invaded ecosystem, Christmas Island. We assess whether (1) removing an invasive apex predator (cats; Felis catus) in isolation would allow a threatened seabird species (Indian Ocean red‐tailed tropicbird; Phaethon rubricaudra westralis) to recover; and based on evidence that this bird species is susceptible to rat predation (2) find the nest predation threshold for a remaining invasive mesopredator (Rattus rattus) that should trigger complementary rat control to ensure seabird population protection.

The analyses indicate that with cat eradication, the tropicbird population is expected to recover quickly and benefit long term. The current empirical rates of nest failure due to rat predation are insufficient to cause tropicbird population decline. However, if nest failure from rat predation should exceed 40%, the tropicbird population is predicted to decline by 1% (SD ± 0.25) per year. If rat predation caused 70% or more nests to fail, the tropicbird population is predicted to decline to extinction in 17 years (~1–2 generations).

Synthesis and applications: Our results illustrate the value of PVAs as a tool for understanding potential invasive species management outcomes in multi‐invaded ecosystems. Defining thresholds of ecologically significant rat impact informs the setting of decision triggers, which in combination with targeted monitoring, can help managers prepare to adapt to deficient or undesirable outcomes in a timely and appropriate way.
A novel method for linking reciprocating saw blades, suspected of being used for theft, to a stolen catalytic converter by using toolmarks comparison techniques
Authors: Aronson Ayal , Pertsev Roman , Levy Ophir , Cohen Amit 
Published: February 2025

AbstractIn recent years, there has been a significant increase in metal prices, particularly precious metals. Consequently, property crimes involving metal theft, including the theft of auto parts and catalytic converters, have also increased dramatically. The surge in catalytic converter thefts is linked to the use of precious metals, such as palladium, rhodium, and platinum, in their construction and their high price. A skilled thief can easily and quickly steal the catalytic converter by getting underneath the vehicle and, in a few moments, simply cut the exhaust pipes in front of and behind the catalytic converter using a common cutting tool, such as a reciprocating saw. Beyond the high price and the ease of committing the theft, police investigators experience difficulties finding forensic evidence that will incriminate the suspect. Furthermore, linking the cut items, such as the reciprocating saw, is not a simple challenge because of its mode of operation. The cyclic movement of the saw's blade, back and forth, removes a section of material. Therefore, examining a saw mark is mainly based on details relating to class characteristic features rather than individual characteristics. The authors seek to challenge this approach and demonstrate the feasibility of linking, using microscopic toolmarks comparison, cordless reciprocation saw, and the potential individual marks that may have resulted from the tip of its blade on the catalytic converter during the cutting action.

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTThe aim of the present systematic review was to evaluate the efficacy of surgical techniques for the preservation of a tooth with VRF. We included case series presenting techniques for the treatment of VRFs. Both electronic sources (MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Central) and reference lists/table of contents of pertinent journals were screened. Eight articles (six studies) were included. Four of the studies bonded the fractured fragments with 4‐META/MMA‐TBB resin, one adopted MTA, and in one study the authors used resin‐ionomer cement. There was significant heterogeneity in the results regarding teeth survival rate and it was not possible to perform a quantitative synthesis. Scientific evidence concerning the treatment of vertically fractured roots is sparse and of low quality. Consequently, it is not possible to draw conclusions regarding the efficacy of the reported techniques. More studies with higher scientific standards may add validity to the techniques described here.Trial Registration: CRD42024524356 in PROSPERO
Distribution of Heat Shock Proteins 27, 60, 70, 90 in Testis and Epididymis of the Domestic Cats (Felis catus) and Dogs (Canis lupus familiaris)
Authors: Kandil Banu , Bayraktaroglu Alev Gürol 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTThis study aimed to examine the immunoexpression of HSP27, HSP60, HSP70, and HSP90 in the testis and epididymis of domestic cats (Felis catus) and dogs (Canis lupus familiaris). Testis and epididymis tissues from 6 adult cats and 6 adult dogs were used in this study. Immunohistochemical staining was done to determine the expression of HSPs. In cats and dogs, while HSP60 was detected only in Leydig cells, HSP90 was determined only in spermatogonia. HSP27 was observed only in smooth muscle cells of blood vessels. HSP70 was not detected in spermatocytes, spermatids, Leydig cells, or Sertoli cells, whereas HSP70 was determined in peritubular myoid cells. In addition, unlike cats, HSP70 was observed in spermatogonia of dog testes. HSP27 was determined in basal cells of the epididymal epithelium and smooth muscle cells of the ductal wall in all sections of the epididymis. However, no HSP60 was observed in the epididymis. While HSP70 was not detected in the epididymis of the cats, HSP70 was observed in basal cells of all sections of the epididymis of the dogs. While the epididymal epithelial cells showed HSP90 immunoreactivity in all parts of the epididymis, the smooth muscle cells of the ductal wall exhibited HSP90 immunoreactivity only in the cauda epididymidis. The findings of this study indicate that HSP27, HSP60, HSP70, and HSP90 exhibit different immunoexpression patterns in the testis and epididymis of cats and dogs and that these proteins play important roles in maintaining the reproductive functions of cats and dogs.

ABSTRACTAimSmoking is a chronic relapsing condition that is under‐reported in oncology settings. People who report current smoking (CS) and those who report recently quitting smoking (RQ) should receive cessation support when they are diagnosed with cancer. The study aimed to identify whether differences exist in the smoking cessation support given to CS and RQ in oncology and what advice is given regarding the benefits of cessation.MethodA survey exploring smoking cessation practices was completed by oncology clinicians (medical, nursing, and allied health) at nine cancer centers in Australia. Data were analyzed using mixed‐effects ordinal regression modeling.ResultsAcross the 177 clinicians completing the survey, the reported provision of smoking cessation care was significantly higher for CS than for RQ in relation to asking about smoking status (odds ratio [OR] 3.03, p = 0.001), advice on the benefits of quitting (OR 2.86, p = 0.001), and advice to call the Quitline (OR 5.08, p < 0.001). Exploratory analyses indicated doctors and nurse specialists were four times more likely to report referring CS to a Quitline compared to RQ (OR 4.38, p = 0.001; OR 4.29, 95%, p = 0.005, respectively). The cessation benefits that clinicians most often cited to their patients was that quitting “can reduce the chance of developing treatment complications and side effects”.ConclusionThe relative lack of smoking cessation care provided to RQ in oncology suggests that the high risk of smoking relapse is not well‐recognized. Greater awareness and training are needed regarding advising RQ about the survival‐specific benefits of continuing to not smoke, offering referrals, and offering follow‐up support.

Authors: Tran Vanessa , Wong Celestine , Lee Senhong , Rodrigues Michelle 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTAcneiform eruptions have been observed and reported in clinical trials for tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) inhibitors. However, data on their occurrence in real‐world settings remain limited. This case series describes six patients, who developed acneiform eruptions following the initiation of deucravacitinib for chronic plaque psoriasis. Through this case series, we aim to shed further light into the clinical characteristics and potential risk factors for this side effect. Contrary to clinical trial data, we demonstrate high cessation rates of deucravacitinib following the development of acneiform eruption, due to the significant burden on quality of life. We highlight the need to identify risk factors to improve patient selection and allow adequate counselling or prophylactic treatments for these acneiform eruptions.

Authors: Aitchison Lucy P. , Spillane Andrew J. 
Published: February 2025

AbstractBackgroundBreast conservation surgery and sentinel lymph node biopsy via a single incision allows excision of tumours from all quadrants of the breast, with access to both axillary and internal mammary nodal basins with no additional incisions.ObjectivesThis systematic review aims to consolidate the current literature on the efficacy, safety, functional and cosmetic outcomes of single‐incision breast conserving surgery and sentinel lymph node biopsy.Data sources and review methodsA comprehensive search of Pubmed, EMBASE, Medline and GoogleScholar was conducted from inception to 7th July 2024 for all peer‐reviewed articles assessing breast conserving surgery and sentinel lymph node biopsy via single incision using PRISMA guidelines.ResultsThe literature search generated 426 articles. 400 were excluded by abstract review with the remaining 26 articles reviewed in full. An additional three articles were retrieved from review of full article reference lists. 13 articles were excluded, leaving 10 articles meeting the inclusion criteria. The technique demonstrated success across all quadrants of the breast. Eight studies documented successful axillary dissection completed via a single incision. Four studies compared the single‐incision approach to the conventional two‐incision technique. There was no difference in complication rates. The single‐incision technique was associated with higher patient satisfaction and reduced post‐operative axillary pain.ConclusionSingle‐incision breast conservation surgery and sentinel lymph node biopsy is surgically safe and can be feasible for tumours in all quadrants of the breast and is associated with improvement in cosmesis, pain and patient satisfaction. Further studies are required to confirm its long‐term oncological safety.

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTAimTimeline of atherosclerosis in children with type 1 diabetes is unknown. We aimed to investigate if familial risk of type 1 diabetes is associated with pro‐atherosclerotic changes.MethodsYoung first‐degree relatives to patients with paediatric type 1 diabetes and sex and age matching controls were enrolled at Skåne University Hospital, Sweden between 2006 and 2015. Conventional lipids, human leukocyte antigen DQ2/8, inflammatory biomarkers, and history of respiratory infections were determined.ResultsA total of 117 first‐degree relatives and 43 controls were recruited (50% boys) at median of 13.4 years of age (IQR 8.0). Relatives had lower BMI Z‐score (p = 0.03) and frequency of respiratory infections (p = 0.03) compared to controls, but higher low‐density lipoprotein (LDL, p = 0.04) and total cholesterol (p = 0.01). In multivariable regression models adjusted for confounders LDL was 0.35 mmol/L higher (95% CI 0.10–0.61) and total cholesterol was 0.46 mmol/L higher (95% CI 0.15–0.77) in relatives. Relatives with ≥ 4 respiratory infections/year had higher LDL than controls with < 4 infections/year (p = 0.035). Human leukocyte antigen DQ2/8 frequency and inflammatory biomarkers did not differ between groups.ConclusionHealthy young relatives to patients with type 1 diabetes display adverse lipid changes, probably related to their genetic susceptibility to this disease and recent respiratory infections.

Authors: Reynolds RM , Cooper JL , Eurell TE 
Published: February 2025

ObjectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of dog erythrocyte antigen 1 (DEA 1) blood type in Sydney and to identify any associations between its prevalence and breed, sex and geographic location of these dogs.MethodsThis was a retrospective study of 225 dogs that underwent DEA 1 blood typing while donating or receiving blood products at a single institution between 2020 and 2024. Dogs were DEA 1 positive or negative and blood donors or recipients. Logistic regression was used to evaluate differences in the prevalence of DEA 1 positive results between sex, breed and geographic location. Significance was set at P < 0.05. Reasons for blood transfusion, blood product administered and age were documented.ResultsOf the dogs that were blood typed (n = 225), 48% (108/225) were DEA 1 positive and 52% (117/225) DEA 1 negative, 105 (46.7%) were donors and 120 (53.3%) recipients. The highest prevalence of DEA 1 type positivity was observed in the Golden Retriever (8/9, 88.9%). Recipients presented primarily for haemorrhage (57/120, 47.5%), most frequently receiving whole blood (89/120, 74.2%) with minimal adverse reactions (3/120, 2.5%). No significant differences were identified in prevalence of DEA 1 positive dogs between breed groups, six most common breeds, sex, geographical location or DEA 1 negative blood types.ConclusionsThe prevalence of the DEA 1 blood type in this cohort of dogs in Sydney is comparable to other countries.

Published: February 2025

ObjectivesThis work examines the current evidence available regarding the risks of eye injury in endourology laser environments with the aim of providing a consensus recommendation on the appropriate use of protective eyewear.MethodsA working group was set up consisting of urological surgeons and laser protection advisors. A literature review was conducted to identify articles relevant to endourology practice and the commonly used lasers, and these were reviewed by the working group. Searches of the medical device fault/reporting databases were also undertaken. A consensus was developed and shared with stakeholders.ResultsNo reports of eye injuries from Ho:YAG, Tm:YAG, or Thulium Fibre Lasers (TFLs) were identified, although reports of skin burns and equipment‐related fires were found. Available evidence suggests that ocular risks in endourology from these lasers are minimal and limited to rare cases of reversible corneal damage. Protective eyewear can further reduce this risk. However, Lasers with wavelengths below 1400 nm pose significant ocular risks, including blindness.ConclusionPersonnel working in an endourology environment using Ho:YAG, Tm:YAG, or TFLs face minimal ocular risks when adhering to established safety procedures, and laser‐specific eyewear may not always be essential. This requires an understanding of the hazards and risks and is in accordance with the recommendations herein, which should form the basis for relevant local rules. Protective eyewear remains critical when using visible and near‐infrared lasers due to the heightened associated ocular risks.

Background and PurposeExposure to chronic stress and high levels of glucocorticoid hormones in adulthood has been associated with cognitive deficits and increased risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Dazucorilant has recently emerged as a selective glucocorticoid receptor (NR3C1) modulator, exhibiting efficacy in counteracting amyloid‐β toxicity in an acute model of AD. We aim to assess the therapeutic potential of dazucorilant in reversing amyloid and tau pathologies through the inhibition of glucocorticoid receptor pathological activity, and providing additional evidence for its consideration in AD treatment.Experimental ApproachThe efficacy of dazucorilant was evaluated in two transgenic mouse models of amyloid pathology. The slowly progressing J20 and the aggressively pathological 5xFAD mice. Behavioural analysis was conducted to evaluate welfare, cognitive performances and anxiety levels. The activity of the glucocorticoid receptor system, neuroinflammation, amyloid burden and tau phosphorylation were examined in hippocampi.Key ResultsIn both AD models, chronic treatment with dazucorilant improved working and long‐term spatial memories along with the inhibition of glucocorticoid receptor‐dependent pathogenic processes and the normalization of plasma glucocorticoid levels. Dazucorilant treatment also resulted in a reduction in tau hyperphosphorylation and amyloid production and aggregation. Additionally, dazucorilant seemed to mediate a specific re‐localization of activated glial cells onto amyloid plaques in J20 mice, suggesting a restoration of physiological neuroinflammatory processes.Conclusion and ImplicationsDazucorilant exhibited sustained disease‐modifying effects in two AD models. Given that this compound has demonstrated safety and tolerability in human subjects, our results provide pre‐clinical support for conducting clinical trials to evaluate its potential in AD.
