Circular supply chain management: a bibliometric analysis-based literature review
Authors: Zhang Abraham , Duong Linh , Seuring Stefan , Hartley Janet L. 
Published: January 2023

PurposeSupply chain management (SCM) research has contributed to the transition to a circular economy (CE). Still, confusions exist on the related terms, and no review has mapped out the development trends in the domain. This research clarifies the boundaries of the relevant concepts. Then, it conducts a comprehensive review of the circular SCM (CSCM) literature and identifies opportunities for future research.Design/methodology/approachUsing relevant keywords, 1,130 journal articles published in December 31, 2021 were identified. Unlike the published reviews, which mainly relied on content analysis, this review uses bibliometric analysis tools, including citation analysis, co-citation analysis and cluster analysis. The review identifies general trends, influential researchers, high-impact publications, citation patterns and established and emergent research themes.FindingsThe extant CSCM literature includes five prominent clusters: (1) reverse channel optimization; (2) CSCM review and empirical studies; (3) closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) and consumers; (4) CLSC and inventory management and (5) CLSC and reverse logistics (RL). Significant research gaps exist in the use of secondary and longitudinal data, a wider range of theories, mixed-methods, multi-method, action research and behavioral experiment. The least researched topics include zero waste, industrial symbiosis, circular product design, sourcing and supply management and reuse.Originality/valueThis is the first bibliometric analysis-based literature review on CSCM. It clarifies the interrelated supply chain sustainability terms and thus reduces related confusion. It offers insights into the patterns in the CSCM literature and suggests important research directions.

Authors: Choi Seong-jin , Shin Jiyoung , Kuper Paul , Zhang Lu-Yao 
Published: January 2023

PurposeThis research investigates how and why firms adopt inclusive diversity activities, identifying the mechanisms behind firms involved in lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT)–friendly pursuits. By integrating resource dependence theory, institutional theory and stakeholder theory, the authors argue that a firm's LGBT friendliness is affected by marketing orientation and the external political environment.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses the Corporate Equality Index, as reported by the Human Rights Campaign, of 460 (1,540 firm-year observations) firms in the United States between 2006 and 2019.FindingsThis study finds a significant, positive relationship between a firm's marketing orientation and LGBT-friendly activities. This research also determines that this relationship is weakened by state-level diversity policies and country-level political uncertainty.Originality/valueThe study results provide unique theoretical and practical implications for the debate on inclusive corporate policy in similar global markets.
Identifying similarities and differences in sustainability education and foresight and futures education: a comparative analysis of competence frameworks
Authors: Thayer Tryggvi 
Published: January 2023

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to determine in what ways the competence frameworks analyzed converge or diverge and whether they are similar enough to be considered equivalent.

Design/methodology/approach
This study is based on a comparative analysis of competence frameworks describing sustainability education and foresight and futures education.

Findings
This study finds that sustainability education and futures and foresight education differ in significant ways in terms of expected outcomes as described by competence frameworks. The two educational fields cannot be considered equivalent. Rather, we find that they are complementary.

Research limitations/implications
This study is based on an analysis of competence frameworks that have been published in peer-reviewed publications. They do not necessarily reflect what is actually practiced in educational environments. Also, competence frameworks may be in circulation that have not been described in scholarly publications and are therefore not included in this study.

Practical implications
The results of this study can be helpful for further refining and developing both sustainability education and futures and foresight education by clarifying the different roles that they play in promoting the skills needed to address long-term challenges in uncertain futures.

Social implications
The rapid rise in prominence of sustainability education, in particular, but also foresight and futures education, is indicative of current concerns about the future of our planet and the beings that inhabit it. There is a sense that a key role of education should be to contribute to a pursuit of positive futures for all. By clarifying how current educational practices address this need, this study contributes to the overall goal of education.

Originality/value
Sustainability education and foresight and futures education have been regarded as being at least similar enough that implementing one may preclude the necessity for the other. This study shows that there are significant differences between the two as they have been defined in published competence frameworks. In particular, it shows that sustainability education emphasizes the use of anticipatory intelligence for strategic planning, while foresight and futures education emphasize the generation of anticipatory intelligence. The two fields are found to be complementary in that they address different, but equally necessary, skills needed to address long-term challenges.
Trust and commitment: a comparative study of virtual team communication across industries
Authors: Tucker Cherina , Olsen Brigit , Hale Richard Todd 
Published: January 2023

Purpose
The purpose of this study is to investigate virtual team (VT) member’s perception of trust and commitment when using computer-mediated communication (CMC).

Design/methodology/approach
A nonexperimental quantitative research methodology was used to survey full-time employees in education, health care and telecommunications industries. Participants were on VTs using CMC. A factorial, between groups, multivariate analysis of variance was used to examine whether the mean scores of trust and commitment, as dependent variables, significantly differed between VT members across industries, that make up one of the independent variables (type of industry) using different CMC with the CMC methods being the second independent variable.

Findings
When the variable of type of industry was held constant, CMC resulted in statistically significant differences in the mean scores of the linear variate of trust and commitment. However, when the variable of CMC was held constant, type of industry did not result in a statistically significant difference in the mean scores of the linear variate of trust and commitment. Additionally, the interaction of the variables CMC and type of industry resulted in a statistically significant difference in the mean scores of the linear variate of trust and commitment.

Originality/value
Findings suggest organizations should adopt best practices to maximize benefits of the visual component of VT communication. This study provides evidence to support a potential relationship between trust and visual CMC. Findings aid organizational leaders in evaluating communication tools, specifically for complex tasks requiring trust among members.
Modeling of dam-break flood wave propagation using HEC-RAS 2D and GIS: case study of Taksebt dam in Algeria
Authors: Abdelghani Leghouchi 
Published: January 2023

Purpose
This study aims to predict the consequences associated with the propagation of the flood wave that may occur after the failure of the Taksebt dam and suggest an efficient emergency action plan for mitigation purposes.

Design/methodology/approach
To achieve the objectives of this study, the hydrodynamic model HEC-RAS 2D was used for the flood routing of the dam-break wave, which gave an estimate of the hydraulic characteristics downstream the Taksebt dam.

Findings
Geospatial analysis of the simulation results conducted in a geographic information system (GIS) environment showed that many residential areas are considered to be in danger in case of the Taksebt dam-break event. Based on the obtained results, an emergency actions plan was suggested to moderate the causalities in the downstream area at risk.

Originality/value
Overall, this study showed that the integration of 2D hydraulic modeling and GIS provides great capabilities in providing realistic view of the dam-break wave propagation that enhances assessing the associated risks and proposing appropriate mitigation measures.

Abstract

The live fuel moisture content (LFMC) is an important precondition for wildfire activity, yet it remains challenging to predict LFMC due to the dynamic interplay between atmospheric and hydrological conditions that determine the plant's access to, and loss of water.

We monitored LFMC and a range of plant water‐use traits (predawn and midday leaf water potentials [Ψleaf]), leaf traits (specific leaf area [SLA]), hydrological status (soil water content [SWC] in the shallow layer and full profile) and atmospheric variables (air temperature, vapour pressure deficit [VPD], CO2 concentrations) in a mature eucalypt woodland at the Eucalyptus Free‐Air CO2 Enrichment (EucFACE) facility during a drought.

We combined plant traits, hydrological status and atmospheric variables into a biophysical model to predict LFMC dynamics, and compared these with predictions of LFMC based on a satellite model and established relationships between Ψleaf and LFMC from pressure–volume curves.

Predawn Ψleaf could be well predicted from changes in SWC, but variation in midday Ψleaf and LFMC were more responsive to atmospheric than hydrological variables. The biophysical model explained up to 89% of variability in LFMC and outperformed established approaches to predict LFMC. SLA was the single most important variable to predict LFMC, followed by VPD, which explained 33% of the remaining variability in LFMC.

Our study demonstrates that the co‐variation of plant traits and atmospheric and hydrological conditions affect LFMC during drought, suggesting a new way forward for predicting LFMC by combining biophysical and satellite‐based models of LFMC with seasonal forecasts of meteorological and hydrological variables.

Maternal comorbidity and adverse perinatal outcomes in survivors of adolescent and young adult cancer: A cohort study
Authors: Desai Milli , Zhou Beth , Nalawade Vinit , Gyamfi‐Bannerman Cynthia , Veeravalli Nina , Henk Henry , Murphy James , Whitcomb Brian , Su H. Irene 
Published: January 2023

AbstractObjectiveTo evaluate risks of preterm birth (PTB) and severe maternal morbidity (SMM) in female survivors of adolescent and young adult cancer and assess maternal comorbidity as a potential mechanism. To determine whether associations differ by use of assisted reproductive technology (ART).DesignRetrospective cohort.SettingCommercially insured females in the USA.SampleFemales with live births from 2000–2019 within a de‐identified US administrative health claims data set.MethodsLog‐binomial regression models estimated relative risks of PTB and SMM by cancer status and tested for effect modification. Causal mediation analysis evaluated the proportions explained by maternal comorbidity.Main Outcome MeasuresPTB and SMM.ResultsAmong 46 064 cancer survivors, 2440 singleton births, 214 multiple births and 2590 linked newborns occurred after cancer diagnosis. In singleton births, the incidence of PTB was 14.8% in cancer survivors versus 12.4% in females without cancer (aRR 1.19, 95% CI 1.06–1.34); the incidence of SMM was 3.9% in cancer survivors versus 2.4% in females without cancer (aRR 1.44, 95% CI 1.13–1.83). Cancer survivors had more maternal comorbidities before and during pregnancy; 26% of the association between cancer and PTB and 30% of the association between cancer and SMM was mediated by maternal comorbidities. Tests for effect modification of cancer status on perinatal outcomes by ART were non‐significant.ConclusionsPreterm birth and SMM risks were modestly increased after cancer. Significant proportions of elevated risks may result from increased comorbidities. ART did not significantly modify the association between adolescent and young adult cancer and adverse perinatal outcomes. The prevention and treatment of comorbidities provides an opportunity to improve perinatal outcomes among cancer survivors.

AbstractObjectiveTo evaluate whether MAMAACT, an antenatal care (ANC) intervention, aimed at reducing ethnic and social disparities in perinatal mortality, affected perinatal health outcomes.DesignCluster randomised controlled trial.SettingNineteen of 20 maternity wards in Denmark.PopulationAll newborn children within a pre‐implementation period (2014–2017) or an implementation period (2018–2019) (n = 188 658).InterventionA 6‐h training session for midwives in intercultural communication and cultural competence, two follow‐up dialogue meetings, and health education materials for pregnant women on warning signs of pregnancy complications in six languages.MethodsNationwide register‐based analysis of the MAMAACT cluster randomised controlled trial. Mixed‐effects logistic regression models were used to estimate the change in outcomes from pre‐ to post‐implementation in the intervention group relative to the control group. Results were obtained for the overall study population and for children born to immigrants from low‐ to middle‐income countries, separately. Models were adjusted for confounders selected a priori.Main Outcome MeasuresA composite perinatal mortality and morbidity outcome, including stillbirths, neonatal deaths, Apgar score <7, umbilical arterial pH < 7.0, admissions to a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) >48 h, and NICU admissions for mechanical ventilation. Additional outcomes were the individual measures.ResultsThe intervention increased the risk of the composite outcome (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.16, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.99–1.34), mainly driven by differences in NICU admission risk (composite outcome excluding NICU, aOR 0.98, 95% CI 0.84–1.14). The intervention slightly increased the risk of low Apgar score and decreased the risk of low arterial pH, reflecting, however, small differences in absolute numbers. Other outcomes were unchanged.ConclusionsOverall, the MAMAACT intervention did not improve the composite perinatal mortality and morbidity outcome (when excluding NICU admissions). The lack of effects may be due to contextual factors including organisational barriers in ANC hindering the midwives from changing practices.
Final year medical students as Assistants in Medicine in the emergency department: A pilot study
Authors: Rupasinghe Senali , Majeed Omar Mustafa , Berling Ingrid 
Published: January 2023

AbstractObjectiveTo evaluate the Assistant in Medicine (AiM) programme and its impact on physician burden and productivity in the ED.MethodsCalvary Mater Newcastle ED employed eight final year medical students as part‐time AiMs for a 10‐week period from October to December 2021. Each student worked one 10‐h shift per week. During these shifts, AiMs were assigned to a supervising doctor postgraduate year 3 or above to assist them with tasks including documentation, patient reviews, hospital consults, procedures, and discharge preparation. At the conclusion of each shift, the supervising doctor completed an online questionnaire of their experience.ResultsForty‐seven responses were received. Thirty‐six doctors (77%) felt they were able to see more patients in comparison to an average shift without an AiM and 40 doctors (85%) felt that having an AiM increased their overall productivity. Forty‐five doctors (96%) supported the implementation of final year medical students as AiMs as a permanent addition to the medical workforce in the ED.ConclusionThe present study demonstrates the strong potential the AiM programme has to improve productivity, workflow and efficiency in the ED.
Development of a new minimally invasive phototherapy for lung cancer using antibody–toxin conjugate
Authors: Sonokawa Takumi , Obi Naoko , Usuda Jitsuo , Sudo Yukio , Hamakubo Takao 
Published: January 2023

AbstractBackgroundPhotodynamic therapy (PDT) is a cancer‐targeted treatment that uses a photosensitizer (PS) and laser irradiation. The effectiveness of current PDT using red light for advanced cancers is limited, because red light can only reach depths within a few millimeters. To enhance the antitumor effect for lung cancers, we developed a new phototherapy, intelligent targeted antibody phototherapy (iTAP). This treatment uses a combination of immunotoxin and a PS, mono‐L‐aspartyl chlorin e6 (NPe6).MethodsWe examined whether cetuximab encapsulated in endosomes was released into the cytosol by PS in PDT under light irradiation. A431 cells were treated with fluorescein isothiocyanate‐labeled cetuximab, NPe6, and light irradiation and were observed with fluorescence microscopy. We analyzed the cytotoxicity of saporin‐conjugated cetuximab (IT‐cetuximab) in A431, A549, and MCF7 cells and the antitumor effect in model A549‐bearing mice in vivo using the iTAP method.ResultsFluorescent microscopy analysis showed that the photodynamic effect of NPe6 (20 μM) and light irradiation (37.6 J/cm2) caused the release of cetuximab from the endosome into the cytosol. In vitro analysis demonstrated that the iTAP method enhanced the cytotoxicity of IT‐cetuximab by the photodynamic effect. In in vivo experiments, compared with IT‐cetuximab alone or PDT alone, the iTAP method using a low dose of IT‐cetuximab showed the greatest enhancement of the antitumor effect.ConclusionsOur study is the first report of the iTAP method using NPe6 for lung cancer cells. The iTAP method may become a new, minimally invasive treatment superior to current PDT methods.
Masai giraffe population change over 40 years in Arusha National Park
Authors: Lee Derek E. , Lohay George G. , Madeli James , Cavener Douglas R. , Bond Monica L. 
Published: January 2023

AbstractA population of Masai giraffes (Giraffa camelopardalis tippelskirchi) occurs in Arusha National Park (ANP), which is not part of the regular Tanzanian national wildlife monitoring scheme. Urban development of Arusha city and agricultural expansion have contributed to the increasing isolation of ANP from other protected areas in northern Tanzania. The only published data on the Masai giraffe population of ANP were individual‐based data collected in 1979 and 1980. Here, we used individual‐based data from 2021 to 2022 to provide an update on the current population size, population sex and age structure, movements and genetic connectivity of giraffes in ANP. We documented a 49% population decline and changes in the age distribution, adult sex ratio, reproductive rate and movement patterns relative to the previous study. Mitochondrial DNA analysis revealed genetic connectivity between ANP and other populations east of the Gregory Rift Escarpments in northern Tanzania and south‐eastern Kenya, evidence that Masai giraffe once moved widely across the landscape.
Care or Justice: Care Ethics and the Restricted Reporting Sexual Assault Policy in the US Military
Authors: Kirkpatrick Jennet , M. Warner Carolyn 
Published: January 2023

AbstractMany care‐ethics scholars argue that care and justice should harmonize. While agreeing in general, we argue for a hard limit on justice in some instances. For example, we find evidence to support limiting justice in favor of care in the US military's restricted reporting policy in cases of sexual assault. This policy allows victims to receive medical treatment without initiating a criminal investigation. Moreover, the article finds additional evidence to normatively prioritize care in the policy's attentiveness and responsiveness, two values emphasized by care‐ethics scholars. This article gives insight into how care and justice can devolve into an antagonistic relationship, something many care‐ethics scholars seek to avoid. Finally, this article suggests how a more harmonious relationship between care and justice might be restored.

Published: January 2023

AbstractAimTo evaluate closed‐loop automated oxygen control (CLAC) in ventilated infants >33 weeks of gestation with different respiratory disease severities.MethodsInfants were studied on two consecutive days for 6 h each day. They were randomised to receive standard care or standard care with CLAC (Oxygenie) first. Analyses were performed of the results of infants with or without an FiO2 ≥ 0.3 and infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).ResultsThirty‐one infants with a median (IQR) gestational age of 37.9 (37.1–38.9) weeks were studied at a median postmenstrual age (IQR) of 38.9 (37.4–39.8) weeks. In infants with an FiO2 ≥ 0.3 (n = 8), CLAC increased the time spent in target oxygen range (92–96%) by 61.6% (p = 0.018), whereas in infants with an FiO2 < 0.3, the time in target was increased by 3.8% (p = 0.019). During CLAC, only infants with an FiO2 ≥ 0.3 spent less time in hyperoxemia (SpO2 > 96%) (p = 0.012) and hyperoxemic episodes were shorter (p = 0.012). In both groups, CLAC reduced the duration of desaturations (SpO2 < 92%, p < 0.001). In CDH infants, CLAC increased the time spent in target oxygen range by 34% (p = 0.036) and the median duration of desaturations was reduced (p = 0.028).ConclusionCLAC may be more useful in infants with more severe respiratory distress.
Short Research Article: Changes in life functioning in a self‐help, online program for child and adolescent anxiety
Authors: Rowe Arlen K. , Evans Jocelyn L. , Donovan Caroline L. , Spence Susan H. , March Sonja 
Published: January 2023

BackgroundAnxiety‐related functional impairment, as reflected by life interference, is a lesser explored but highly relevant treatment outcome, and it is crucial that it be included and examined in the evaluation of treatment outcomes of internet‐delivered Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (iCBT).MethodsThis single group, pre‐post study examined changes in life interference and anxiety symptoms in a sample of children (n = 1198; mean age 9.66 years) and adolescents (n = 721; mean age 13.66 years) participating in the BRAVE Self‐Help program in Australia.ResultsResults demonstrated that both children and adolescents showed improvements in anxiety symptoms, with effect sizes ranging from ηp2 = .194–.318. Reductions in life interference were evident for children (ηp2 = .008–.044), particularly later in the programme, but adolescents did not show such effects. Adolescents in the low completer group (completing 3–5 sessions) showed increases in at‐home interference (ηp2 = .038).ConclusionsAdolescents in particular may require more sessions before entrenched life interference, such as that resulting from avoidance behaviours, can be overcome.
