Salient/silent actors of Ankara's housing and the vocational network in the turmoil of transformation (1923–1928)
Authors: Avci Hosanli Deniz 
Published: June 2023

PurposeDespite the quantity of collaborations, the vocational network of the housing production in Ankara during its first five years (1923–1928) remains dispersed. The aim of this study is to identify all the actors of housing production and their collaborations which shaped Ankara's urban development as the new capital city.Design/methodology/approachThe study engages with the literature and archival documents to identify the actors of the housing production, i.e. architects, master-builders, public institutions, private companies, contractors and entrepreneurs, and their resultant vocational network in the housing production in Ankara during 1923–1928.FindingsDue to different agendas, such as speculation, financial interests or patriotism, the construction industry in Ankara had become an arena where many paths intersected, forming an intertwined vocational network. The profession of contractor became popular, and local architects, engineers and even individuals of various other professions began to work as mediators for foreign companies and public institutions, which required support especially in large-scale projects.Originality/valueThe dispersed information revealed that the actors of the housing production remained mostly anonymous, or only the famous architects were commemorated; however, others could be found within the lines of the established literature on Ankara and/or in archival documents. This research not only focuses on “salient” actors but also highlights the “silent” actors of the housing production and prepares charts to clarify the vocational network in Ankara during its first five years to contribute to the future studies on Ankara and its housing.

Purpose
This study aims to evaluate the state of preservation of one of the most famous manuscripts dated back to the 15th century using some analytical techniques to identify the manuscript components, explain its deterioration mechanisms and produce some solutions for conservation processes in future studies.

Design/methodology/approach
The analytical techniques used were visual assessment, digital microscope, scanning electron microscope (SEM) with EDX, pH measurement, attenuated total reflection – Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR/FTIR) and cellulose crystallinity.

Findings
Stains, missed parts and scratching were the most common aspects of deterioration. Some insects were observed by digital microscope. The SEM showed that linen fibers and goat skin were used to manufacture paper sheets and leather binding. Energy dispersive X-ray analysis proved that niobium and tantalum were added during the manufacture of paper sheets. Carbon black ink was the main writing material. The other pigments used were cinnabar in red ink, gold color from brass and blue color from lapis lazuli. FTIR analysis proved that some chemical changes were noticed. Low crystallinity of the historical paper was obtained. There was a reduction in the pH value of the historical bookbinding.

Originality/value
The importance of the analytical techniques used to detect the main components, forms and mechanism of deterioration of the studied manuscript. The elements of niobium and tantalum were added to paper sheets, which protected them from deterioration. The insects such as house flies and Sitophilus granarius were found in the manuscripts.
A study of the operator assignment problem in powder-coating processing using simulation optimization
Authors: Yang Taho , Wang Mei-Chuan , Kuo Yiyo 
Published: June 2023

Purpose
The main operations of the powder-coating process are staggered along a closed-loop conveyor. Given the volatile market demands, using a fixed level of staffing may result in significant productivity losses. The present study aims to capture stochastic behavior and optimize operator assignment problems in a practical powder-coating process. By using the proposed methodology, when demand changes, the optimal operator assignment configuration can be provided, ensuring high labor productivity.

Design/methodology/approach
The powder-coating process is an important industrial application and is often a labor-intensive system. The present study adopts a practical case to optimize its staffing level. Because of its operational complexity, the problem is solved by a proposed simulation-optimization approach. The results are promising, and the proposed methodology is shown to be an effective approach.

Findings
The proposed methodology was tested for various demand levels. The optimized operator assignment configuration always improves on the performance of other staffing levels. Given the same daily throughput, the optimized operator assignment configuration can improve performance by as much as 19%. In scenarios where there is increased demand, the resulting reduction in overtime work improves performance by between 20.33% and 56.72%. In scenarios where there is reduced demand, the optimized staffing level produces improvements between 3.13% and 50%. Compared with the fixed staffing policy of the case company, the flexible staffing policy of the proposed methodology can maintain high labor productivity across demand variations. The results are consistent with the Shojinka philosophy of the Toyota Production System.

Originality/value
This study proposes a solution to the operator assignment decision in a labor-intensive manufacturing system – a powder-coating processing system. Powder coating provides a solid powder coating without any solvent. Because of its excellent application performance and environmental protection, it is widely used in the field of metal coating, especially appliances for offices and homes. Most of the existing literature has solved the problem by making unrealistic assumptions. The present study proposes a simulation-optimization method to solve a practical problem in powder-coating processing. The effectiveness of the proposed methodology is illustrated by a practical application. According to the experimental results, five operators can be saved for the same daily throughput. An average of 35 and 19 min of overtimes can be saved when demand increases by 10% and 20% with one less operator; between 2 and 16 operators can be saved when demand falls by 10%–60%.
The Roles of Finance in ESG Management
Authors: Park Young Seog , Lee Hyo Seob 
Published: June 2023

AbstractAs shareholder capitalism has revealed its limitations since the outbreak of Covid‐19, there has been a growing demand for a shift toward stakeholder capitalism. Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) management seeks an optimal way to allocate resources to both financial and social values in order to enhance stakeholder utility. Given the various legal, theoretical, and empirical limitations of pluralistic stakeholder capitalism, it is necessary to focus on achieving instrumental stakeholder capitalism. In this regard, we present three roles that finance should play in promoting more firms to adopt ESG management. First, infrastructure needs to be established to measure and assess ESG value in a fair and objective manner. Financial firms should make efforts to develop a non‐financial disclosure and certification system, create an ESG index, expand research and investment in this area, and improve credit ratings. Second, there is a need to boost the intermediation of ESG‐linked finance in order to enhance utility for firms, investors, and governments. Third, it is crucial to facilitate the trading of ESG value in the market, as this could provide incentives for firms and help them cover the costs associated with ESG investments.
Dark sides of social entrepreneurship: Contributions of systems thinking towards managing its effects
Authors: Molderez Ingrid , Fets Janne 
Published: June 2023

AbstractSocial enterprises are seen as innovative towards solving societal problems, but little research exists on possible negative aspects, the so‐called dark sides. In this study, the emphasis is on dark sides of social entrepreneurship, how they are managed, and how systems thinking can contribute towards managing these effects. Dark sides of social entrepreneurship can take many forms, like unethical or insincere motives and unintended outcomes like the negative impact on the well‐being of founders and employees, but they are also a call for a critical reflection on the role of the government in society and the economic system social enterprises have to operate in. This paper aims to contribute to the dark side theory of social entrepreneurship by linking system archetypes to themes of dark side thereby stressing how management strategies act as balancing feedback loops to mitigate or prevent dark sides. A qualitative research was conducted by interviewing 21 respondents who play an important role in the world of social entrepreneurship in Belgium. The results show that dark sides of social enterprises manifest itself mostly in the form of trade‐offs and financial, business, and management related issues. Taking over the habits of profit‐oriented companies emerged as a new dark side element. Management strategies include anchoring goals, transparency, obtaining external views, changing the system, and above all reflection. The latter is an important first step to become aware of these issues to be able to change the negative dynamism of these dark sides.
Errors encountered in the diagnostic pathway: A prospective single‐institution study

Published: June 2023

AbstractBackgroundBiopsy specimens go through a diagnostic pathway before a pathology report is rendered for the clinician. Errors can occur at any step in this pathway.MethodsA 1‐year prospective study was conducted at a single academic institution to identify and characterize errors that occurred in the diagnostic pathway from the clinic to the dermatopathology lab.ResultsA total of 25 662 specimens were processed and 190 errors were recorded (an error rate of 0.7%). The most common errors were an incorrect biopsy site (n = 65), incorrect data entry of a correct diagnosis (n = 25), and specimen mix‐up (n = 23). There were 17 diagnostic errors. Errors most often occurred in the pre‐analytical phase (n = 128). The clinician was responsible for 34.2% of errors, the dermatopathologist for 23.7%, and the histotechnician for 18.9%. Slips were the most common type of human error (n = 156).ConclusionThe most common error involved an incorrect biopsy site at the clinical stage. Over two‐thirds of errors occurred before the slide reached the dermatopathologist. Diagnostic errors (analytical phase) rarely occurred, and when they did occur, the clinician was most likely to discover the error. Examining and addressing common laboratory errors help to reduce their incidence and lead to quality improvement in dermatopathology.

Published: June 2023

AbstractPre‐release host range assessments of weed biocontrol agent (BCA) candidates typically rely on no‐choice and choice feeding, oviposition, and development tests. However, these tests may exclude potentially environmentally safe BCA candidates from consideration if they develop on nontarget plant species in no‐choice tests that they would not colonize in the field because of behavioral barriers during host selection. Here, we examined the behavioral responses of Ceutorhynchus rusticus Gyllenhal (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) to olfactory and visual plant cues of nine native North American and two Eurasian confamilial plant species of invasive Eurasian mustard dyer's woad, Isatis tinctoria L. (Brassicaceae). In behavioral bioassays with olfactory, visual, and combined plant cues of one plant species vs. purified air and/or empty arms (control treatments), weevils responded with attraction to all offered I. tinctoria plant cues but showed no preference for most nontarget plant species relative to control treatments. The weevil also responded faster in these bioassays to I. tinctoria cues when compared to most nontarget species. In bioassays with olfactory, visual, or combined cues of nontarget species vs. those of I. tinctoria, C. rusticus preferred I. tinctoria over most nontarget plant species (olfactory cues: eight of 11, visual cues: two of 11, and combined cues: 11 out of 11 nontarget plant species). The results also suggest that C. rusticus mainly uses olfactory or combined olfactory and visual plant cues rather than visual cues alone in the early stages of host finding. Additionally, the findings suggest that during host finding, C. rusticus prefers cues of its Eurasian field host over those of nontarget species, reducing risks of post‐release nontarget attack in the field. Assessing behavioral responses to multimodal cues can advance our understanding of BCA candidates' host discrimination and facilitate the accurate interpretation of conventional no‐choice and choice feeding and development data during pre‐release environmental safety assessments.
Fueling conspiracy beliefs: Political conservatism and the backlash against COVID‐19 containment policies

Published: June 2023

AbstractAmid the COVID‐19 pandemic, people have witnessed a deluge of conspiracy theories and disinformation. As the coronavirus poses a significant threat to individuals' lives, these conspiracy theories are dangerous, as they erode public trust and undermine government efforts to fight the virus. This paper examines the political determinants of COVID‐19 conspiracy beliefs. Particularly, we analyze how government policy responses to the pandemic and individuals' ideological predispositions interact to shape people's tendencies to believe conspiracy theories. Using survey data from 22 advanced industrial countries, we show that political conservatives are more prone to conspiracy beliefs than liberals. More importantly, this tendency is reinforced when the government adopts stringent containment policies. Our results suggest that governments' policy efforts to contain the coronavirus can trigger an unintended backlash from political conservatives. This study has important implications for the behavioral and attitudinal effects of government containment policies that are often overlooked.
A Unit‐Concentration Method to Quantify Source Contribution

Published: June 2023

AbstractSolute migration is typically simulated to describe and estimate the fate and transport of contaminants in groundwater. The unit‐concentration approach is investigated here as a method to enable solute transport simulations to expand the capabilities of groundwater flow modeling. The unit‐concentration method uses a concentration value of one to identify sources of water to be assessed and a concentration of zero for all other water sources. The distribution of concentration thus obtained, unlike particle tracking methods, provides a more intuitive and direct quantification of the contribution of sources reaching various sinks. The unit‐concentration approach can be applied readily with existing solute transport software for a range of analyses including source allocation, well capture analysis, and mixing/dilution calculations. This paper presents the theory, method, and example applications of the unit‐concentration approach for source quantification.
Effect of TiO2 on the occurrence and distribution of chromium in stainless‐steel slag glass ceramics

Published: June 2023

AbstractStainless steel slag waste can be used to prepare value‐added glass ceramics, which can fix potentially toxic Cr from the slag within the crystalline phase. The occurrence and distribution of Cr during the preparation of glass ceramics has a great influence on the final Cr fixation effect. In this study, the effects of the TiO2 content on the occurrence and distribution of Cr during the nucleation and crystallization steps and on the final properties of the glass ceramics were systematically studied. In the nucleation stage, with increasing TiO2 content, the Cr distributed in the spinel containing chromium nuclei first increases and then decreases. In the crystallization stage, Diopside crystal phase nucleates and grows with spinel containing chromium nanocrystals as heterogeneous nuclei. X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis showed that the chromium distributed in the diopside crystals first increased and then slightly decreased as the TiO2 content increased. The optimal TiO2 content is 3.4 wt.%, which resulted in 97 wt.% of the total Cr being fixed in the diopside crystalline phase (with a very low Cr leaching concentration of 0.009 mg/L), and a high compressive strength of the final glass ceramic of 267.4 MPa, and a Vickers hardness of 1211.8 HV. The research results provide theoretical and technical support for strengthening Cr fixation to enable harmless and high‐value utilization of stainless steel slag for fabricating glass ceramics.

Published: June 2023

AbstractAccording to reports, gut microbiota and metabolites regulate the intestinal immune microenvironment. In recent years, an increasing number of studies reported that bile acids (BAs) of intestinal flora origin affect T helper cells and regulatory T cells (Treg cells). Th17 cells play a pro‐inflammatory role and Treg cells usually act in an immunosuppressive role. In this review, we emphatically summarised the influence and corresponding mechanism of different configurations of lithocholic acid (LCA) and deoxycholic acid (DCA) on intestinal Th17 cells, Treg cells and intestinal immune microenvironment. The regulation of BAs receptors G protein‐coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1/TGR5) and farnesoid X receptor (FXR) on immune cells and intestinal environment are elaborated. Furthermore, the potential clinical applications above were also concluded in three aspects. The above will help researchers better understand the effects of gut flora on the intestinal immune microenvironment via BAs and contribute to the development of new targeted drugs.
What works and why in interventions to strengthen social cohesion: A systematic review
Authors: Orazani S. Nima , Reynolds Katherine J. , Osborne Harry 
Published: June 2023

AbstractCOVID‐19 has highlighted worldwide the importance of a strong social and political fabric. Those countries that fared best were ones where there was community connection, belonging, a volunteering ethos, and a belief in the legitimacy of official institutions, all deemed critical aspects of social cohesion. It has become clear that understanding and strengthening social cohesion in times of stability is critical to successfully navigate crisis. Despite its importance, evidence from many countries indicates that this important “social glue” is fragile and at risk, requiring consistent investments to maintain and strengthen it. Governments and communities around the world are looking to evidence‐based strategies to strengthen social cohesion. To facilitate this goal, a systematic review is conducted of four major databases identifying 52 studies with high‐quality evidence of what works and why. We also included the results of three systematic reviews that had investigated the impact of social capital and/or social cohesion on health‐related variables specifically to broaden our search and enrich our findings (n = 21; total = 73). Using themes identified across governments, it is possible to classify the strengths and limitations of existing research. It becomes clear that the most common effective strategies were (1) awareness raising and coutering existing stereotypes and (2) offering opportunities for positive contact and a more co‐operative assessment of intergroup relations. Missing are leadership processes that can (re)define group‐based values, norms, and behaviors. Specific intervention strategies are outlined as well as directions for future research.
Cross‐talk between DNA damage response and the central carbon metabolic network underlies selective vulnerability of Purkinje neurons in ataxia‐telangiectasia

Published: June 2023

AbstractCerebellar ataxia is often the first and irreversible outcome in the disease of ataxia‐telangiectasia (A‐T), as a consequence of selective cerebellar Purkinje neuronal degeneration. A‐T is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting from the loss‐of‐function mutations of the ataxia‐telangiectasia–mutated ATM gene. Over years of research, it now becomes clear that functional ATM—a serine/threonine kinase protein product of the ATM gene—plays critical roles in regulating both cellular DNA damage response and central carbon metabolic network in multiple subcellular locations. The key question arises is how cerebellar Purkinje neurons become selectively vulnerable when all other cell types in the brain are suffering from the very same defects in ATM function. This review intended to comprehensively elaborate the unexpected linkages between these two seemingly independent cellular functions and the regulatory roles of ATM involved, their integrated impacts on both physical and functional properties, hence the introduction of selective vulnerability to Purkinje neurons in the disease will be addressed.image
