Published: September 2023

PurposeAdvancing behavioral health and primary care integration is a priority for helping clients overcome the complex health challenges impacting healthcare deserts like those in Arizona, United States of America (USA). This study aimed to explore the perspectives of people with a substance use disorder (SUD) on accessing integrated primary care (IPC) services in a rural-serving behavioral healthcare organization in Arizona.Design/methodology/approachClients from a behavioral health facility in Arizona (n = 10) diagnosed with SUDs who also accessed IPC participated in a 45-min semi-structured interview.FindingsThe authors identified six overarching themes: (1) importance of IPC for clients being treated for SUDs, (2) client low level of awareness of IPC availability at the facility, (3) strategies to increase awareness of IPC availability at the behavioral health facility, (4) cultural practices providers should consider in care integration, (5) attitudes and perceptions about the experience of accessing IPC and (6) challenges to attending IPC appointments. The authors also identified subthemes for most of the main themes.Originality/valueThis is the first study in rural Arizona to identify valuable insights into the experiences of people with SUDs accessing IPC, providing a foundation for future research in the region on care integration.

Authors: Zeng Chengkuan , Chen Shiming , Yan Chongjun 
Published: September 2023

PurposeThis study addresses the production optimization of a cellular manufacturing system (CMS) in magnetic production enterprises. Magnetic products and raw materials are more critical to transport than general products because the attraction or repulsion between magnetic poles can easily cause traffic jams. This study needs to address a method to promote the scheduling efficiency of the problem.Design/methodology/approachTo address this problem, this study formulated a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model to describe the problem and proposed an auction and negotiation-based approach with a local search to solve it. Auction- and negotiation-based approaches can obtain feasible and high-quality solutions. A local search operator was proposed to optimize the feasible solutions using an improved conjunctive graph model.FindingsVerification tests were performed on a series of numerical examples. The results demonstrated that the proposed auction and negotiation-based approach with a local search operator is better than existing solution methods for the problem identified. Statistical analysis of the experiment results using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software demonstrated that the proposed approach is efficient, stable and suitable for solving large-scale numerical instances.Originality/valueAn improved auction and negotiation-based approach was proposed; The conjunctive graph model was also improved to describe the problem of CMS with traffic jam constraint and build the local search operator; The authors’ proposed approach can get better solution than the existing algorithms by testing benchmark instances and real-world instances from enterprises.
When politics meets sustainability: the effect of independent directors' political connections on corporate sustainability disclosure in China
Authors: Ting Hsiu-I , Lee Yun-Chi 
Published: September 2023

PurposeThis paper investigates the influence of political connections on sustainability disclosure in the context of China's Regulation 18.Design/methodology/approachThe study employs a quasi-experimental approach, utilizing difference-in-difference (DiD) analysis, dynamic DiD and propensity score matching to analyze the effects of politically connected independent directors on sustainability disclosure following the implementation of Regulation 18.FindingsCompanies with politically connected independent directors show an improvement in sustainability disclosures after Regulation 18. This effect is stronger for firms facing high political pressure or lacking alternative political power. Additionally, the increase in value from sustainability disclosures compensates for the loss of politically connected independent directors, indicating a positive value impact of sustainability disclosures.Originality/valueThis study provides novel insights into the corporate disclosure policy in China by investigating the impact of politically connected directors on sustainability disclosure. Additionally, it sheds light on the limitations of political power and its substitution effects within companies.
Self Managed Learning: a hybrid of Progressive and Democratic Education
Authors: Matusov Eugene 
Published: September 2023

Purpose
The book has generated a passionate dialogue-disagreement (mostly but not entirely) with the book. Dialogue-disagreement is based on challenges, disagreements and rebuttals between opponents, often belonging to different, even irreconcilable, paradigms. The goal of dialogue-disagreement is not so much to convince the opponent to change their mind but rather to critically examine and problematize the two involved paradigms: the authors’ and the reviewer’s. By taking the generated challenges and disagreements seriously, both irreconcilable paradigms can grow through their replies. Dialogue-disagreement gives the participants–opponents the gift of revealing their own paradigmatic blind spots, which are often invisible from within their paradigms. Dialogue-disagreement is exploratory and based on an agnostic relationship between frenemies, i.e. “friendly enemies.”

Design/methodology/approach
This is a critical book review essay of Self Managed Learning and the New Educational Paradigm (Cunningham, 2021).

Findings
The reviewer views Ian Cunningham’s Self Managed Learning educational paradigm as a hybrid of Progressive and Democratic Education, while the reviewer sees his/her Self-Education paradigm as entirely Democratic (and Dialogic). Elsewhere, the reviewer discussed and critically analyzed the Progressive Education paradigm, which generally involves channeling the student’s learning activism and subjectivity toward learning outcomes desired by an educator. It uses the educator’s manipulation of the student’s subjectivity to make them study what the educator wants them to study. In contrast, the paradigm of Democratic Education assumes that the educatee is the final authority of their own education. The educatee decides whether to study, when to study, what to study, how to study, with whom to study, where to study, for what purpose to study and so on. The educatee makes these decisions by themselves or with the help of other people at the educatee’s discretion and conditions. The reviewer charges that Ian’s Self Managed Learning paradigm is a hybrid of both paradigms, with the Progressive Education paradigm taking the lead and exploiting the Democratic Education paradigm.

Originality/value
The book presented a unique, innovative practice worth a critical analysis. The reviewer’s dialogue-disagreement with the book reveals a particular hybrid of Progressive and Democratic Education which is common to some innovative self-directed learning.
Work interrupted at home: examining the influence of supportive teleworking practices on work–family conflict
Authors: Wang Mei-Ling , Lee Ming-Chi , Mao Hsiao-Yen 
Published: September 2023

PurposeBy utilizing boundary theory and distraction–conflict theory, this study attempted to examine the influential process of supportive teleworking practices granting work scheduling autonomy on work-to-family conflict (WFC) via the mediating mechanism of work interruption initiated from home.Design/methodology/approachThe study conducted two-wave online questionnaire survey to obtain a final sample of 277 remote knowledge workers in Taiwan during the peak period of COVID-19 pandemic. Hypotheses were tested with partial least squares-structural equation modelling using SmartPLS 3.0 software.FindingsThe results revealed that supportive teleworking practices did not directly decrease the level of WFC while home-sourced work interruptions fully mediated the negative relationship between supportive teleworking practices and WFC.Originality/valueThis provides a more nuanced explanation for how and why supportive teleworking practices are beneficial for employees to cope with the challenge of work–home interferences under the new ways of working. The findings simultaneously address evidence-based practices to better deal with mandatory teleworking during potential societal crisis beyond the COVID-19 pandemic.

Authors: Mohamed Sunar Mohamad Solehin , Abu Bakar Maria , A. Atiqah , Jalar Azman , Muhamed Mukhtar Muhamed Abdul Fatah , Che Ani Fakhrozi 
Published: September 2023

Purpose
This paper aims to investigate the effect of physical vapor deposition (PVD)-coated stencil wall aperture on the life span of fine-pitch stencil printing.

Design/methodology/approach
The fine-pitch stencil used in this work is fabricated by electroform process and subsequently nano-coated using the PVD process. Stencil printing process was then performed to print the solder paste onto the printed circuit board (PCB) pad. The solder paste release was observed by solder paste inspection (SPI) and analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. The printing cycle of up to 80,000 cycles was used to investigate the life span of stencil printing.

Findings
The finding shows that the performance of stencil printing in terms of solder printing quality is highly dependent on the surface roughness of the stencil aperture. PVD-coated stencil aperture can prolong the life span of stencil printing with an acceptable performance rate of about 60%.

Originality/value
Stencil printing is one of the important processes in surface mount technology to apply solder paste on the PCB. The stencil’s life span greatly depends on the type of solder paste, stencil printing cycles involved and stencil conditions such as the shape of the aperture, size and thickness of the stencil. This study will provide valuable insight into the relationship between the coated stencil wall aperture via PVD process on the life span of fine-pitch stencil printing.
Omnivore diet composition alters parasite resistance and host condition
Authors: Blubaugh Carmen K. , Jones Cami R. , Josefson Chloe , Scoles Glen A. , Snyder William E. , Owen Jeb P. 
Published: September 2023

Abstract

Diet composition modulates animals' ability to resist parasites and recover from stress. Broader diet breadths enable omnivores to mount dynamic responses to parasite attack, but little is known about how plant/prey mixing might influence responses to infection.

Using omnivorous deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) as a model, we examine how varying plant and prey concentrations in blended diets influence resistance and body condition following infestation by Rocky Mountain wood ticks (Dermacentor andersoni).

In two repeated experiments, deer mice fed for 4 weeks on controlled diets that varied in proportions of seeds and insects were then challenged with 50 tick larvae in two sequential infestations.

The numbers of ticks successfully feeding on mice declined by 25% and 66% after the first infestation (in the first and second experiments, respectively), reflecting a pattern of acquired resistance, and resistance was strongest when plant/prey ratios were more equally balanced in mouse diets, relative to seed‐dominated diets.

Diet also dramatically impacted the capacity of mice to cope with tick infestations. Mice fed insect‐rich diets lost 15% of their body weight when parasitized by ticks, while mice fed seed‐rich diets lost no weight at all.

While mounting/maintaining an immune response may be energetically demanding, mice may compensate for parasitism with fat and carbohydrate‐rich diets.

Altogether, these results suggest that a diverse nutritional landscape may be key in enabling omnivores' resistance and resilience to infection and immune stressors in their environments.
Plant defences as functional traits: A comparison across savannas differing in herbivore specialization
Authors: Massad Tara Joy 
Published: September 2023

Abstract

Top‐down and bottom‐up forces in tropical savannas have shaped the evolution of traits that enable plants to thrive in environments where soils are poor, dry seasons are long, fire is frequent, woody plants and grasses compete and herbivores range from cryptic caterpillars to elephants that topple entire trees.

African savannas and the South American cerrado have similar climates and fire regimes, but differ in the presence of large mammal herbivores, which are mostly extinct in the cerrado. These biomes offer an instructive comparison to understand how plant defence traits evolved in response to differential herbivore pressure. Within Africa, mammalian herbivore pressure also differs across savannas, being lower in the miombo relative to more open, mixed savannas.

The dominance of specialist insect herbivores in the cerrado, relative to the more generalist mammalian herbivores in Africa, suggests that defence traits will differ between savannas in accordance with herbivore identity and pressure.

Wood is densest in mixed African savannas, as expected because large mammals often damage trees. Specific leaf area, related to palatability, is higher in mixed African savannas and the cerrado relative to the miombo, while leaf N is surprisingly higher in miombo species. Ant mutualists are important defences in mixed African savannas and the cerrado.

Defensive chemistry has received less attention in the trait literature. Foliar phenolics, the most commonly studied chemical defences in savannas, vary in their efficacy. New analyses isolating specific compounds are informative as is the evaluation of phytochemical diversity as a defence. There are indications that phytochemical defences are more diverse in the cerrado, which may be related to greater specialization of cerrado herbivores.

Synthesis. The dominance of specialist insect herbivores in the cerrado, relative to generalist mammalian herbivores in Africa, selected for different plant defence traits, contributing to the separation of species along the leaf economics spectrum and demonstrating the importance of plant defences as plant functional traits. African savanna species seem to follow a more acquisitive strategy, followed by miombo species. Cerrado species appear to follow a more conservative strategy with greater investments in tough leaves and chemical defences.
Thinking Childbirth from an Emancipatory Perspective? Phenomenology and Psychoanalysis1
Authors: Picard Clarisse 
Published: September 2023

AbstractFeminist thought, despite the importance of its work, has not resolved the phenomenon of women's subordination in the care and education of children, and in society as a whole. Meanwhile, we are witnessing a gradual but continuous process of disconnection between women's bodies and subjectivity, and the conception, pregnancy and birth of children, due to developments in reproductive techniques. Considering this paradoxical tension, the author proposes to return to the very place where this subordination and anticipated rupture occur, to consider whether mothers could find there both the means to reclaim their childbirth experiences and potential levers for emancipation and rebirth, on both a personal and societal level. To this end, she describes, from the point of view of a singular woman, and from an emancipatory perspective, the phenomenological and psychoanalytical itinerary of childbirth by which this woman, in becoming a mother, is born to herself by giving birth to her child. By co‐constituting the universal meaning of childbirth and becoming a philosophical mother, this singular woman operates a real paradigm shift in our representations of the mother and the metaphysical structure of the sexes.

AbstractObjectiveTo evaluate microvascular function in women with previous hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP).DesignRetrospective population‐based cohort study.SettingLinköping, Sweden.PopulationWomen aged 50–65 years, participating in the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS) at one site (Linköping) 2016–18, who underwent microcirculatory assessment (N = 1222).MethodsForearm skin comprehensive microcirculatory assessment was performed with a PeriFlux PF6000 EPOS (Enhanced Perfusion and Oxygen Saturation) system measuring oxygen saturation and total speed resolved perfusion. Obstetric records were reviewed to identify women with previous HDP. Data on cardiovascular risk factors, comorbidities, medication, lifestyle, anthropometric data, and biochemical analyses were obtained from SCAPIS. The microcirculatory data were compared between women with and without previous HDP.Main outcome measuresSkin microcirculatory oxygen saturation and total speed resolved perfusion at baseline and post‐ischaemic peak.ResultsWomen with previous pre‐eclampsia displayed impaired post‐ischaemic peak oxygen saturation compared with women with normotensive pregnancies (88%, interquartile range [IQR] 84–89% vs 91%, IQR 87–94%, p = 0.001) 6–30 years after pregnancy. The difference remained after multivariable adjustment (β −2.69, 95% CI −4.93 to −0.45).ConclusionsThe findings reveal microvascular dysfunction at long‐term follow up in women with previous pre‐eclampsia and strengthen the possible role of endothelial dysfunction as a link to the increased risk of cardiovascular disease in women with HDP.
Emerging challenges in maintaining marine food‐fish availability and food safety
Authors: Samarajeewa Upali 
Published: September 2023

AbstractThe marine finfish and crustaceans contribute immensely to human nutrition. Harvesting marine food‐fish to meet the global demand has become a challenge due to reduction of the fishery areas and food safety hazards associated with increased pre‐harvest and post‐harvest contaminations. The causes of low fish availability and contaminations were reviewed following the published literature from 2000 to 2023. The marine fish yields are stressed due to spread of contaminants triggered by rising sea temperatures, transport of microorganisms by marine vessels across the oceans, anthropogenic activities leading to increase in the toxic microorganisms, and the entry of toxic chemicals and antibiotic residues into the seawater through rivers or directly. Processing adds pyrogenic chemicals to foods. The hazardous materials may accumulate in the food‐fish, beyond tolerance limits permitted for human foods. While the research and control measures focus on minimizing the hazards due to pathogenic microorganisms and chemicals in market fish, there is less discussion on the unhealthy changes occurring in the oceans affecting the quantity and quality of food‐fish, and the origins of microbial and chemical contaminations. This review examines the factors affecting availability of wild food‐fish and increased contaminations. It aims to bridge the knowledge gaps between the spread of hazardous agents in the marine environment, and their effects on the food‐fish. Meeting the future human food security and safety through marine fish and fish products may need marine cage farming, introduction of genetically modified high yielding food‐fish, and cultured contaminant free finless fish muscles as options.
Eligibility test for advanced chronic kidney disease: Revision and proposal
Authors: García Agudo Rebeca , Méndez Molina Marina , Piqueras Sánchez Sara , Tejera‐Muñoz Antonio 
Published: September 2023

AbstractNowadays, chronic kidney disease (CKD) prevalence keeps increasing worldwide. The management of these patients usually requires renal replacement therapy (RRT). However, the complexity of patients' profiles comprises a great challenge to overcome. During the last decades, CKD units have been developed to offer multidisciplinary and coordinated attention to patients, helping in the decision‐making of the RRT. Nevertheless, there is a huge variability in the performance and organization of care practice, implying an existing necessity to homogenize the RRT modality chosen. We propose a test composed of two parts: one to be completed by the medical staff (to evaluate contraindications for the different RRT techniques) and another by the patient or nursing staff (to consider patients' preferences). In this sense, it would be possible to have a common and useful tool to complement patient education in RRT, as well as sharing decision‐making in the ACKD units taking into account patient preferences.
Quantifying the distribution and morphological variation of the beetles Homocopris achamas and Uroxys coarctatus in Andean ecosystems of Colombia
Authors: Morales‐Alba Andrés Felipe , Carvajal‐Cogollo Juan E. 
Published: September 2023

AbstractInsects that inhabit high‐altitude ecosystems are an ecologically specialized group whose distribution is restricted by the presence of biogeographical barriers. These biogeographical constraints are thought to mould the shape of some insect structures because of environmental pressures that may produce better adaptations in extreme environments. We evaluated the potential distribution of Homocopris achamas and Uroxys coarctatus in two life regions (the Andean region and the Páramo region) found in the Andes of Colombia, and we determined if there were differences in their morphology along an elevational gradient. To determine the potential distribution of the species, we obtained geographical data through the systematic search of databases and entomological collections that we modelled under the maximum entropy model. We then evaluated the morphological variations by measuring geometric structures such as the clypeus (MC), the eye (ME) and the area of the anterior tibia (TA). We found that both species along the entire gradient exhibited the following characteristics: H. achamas was dominant in the Páramo region and showed two population nuclei separated by a wide biogeographic barrier, while U. coarctatus was more dominant in the Andean region and was distributed only in the northern Andes. Both were always linked to ecosystems with open vegetation that was both natural or intervened. H. achamas did not show changes in the shape of the structures while U. coarctatus showed differences in MC and ME. We suggested that livestock activity could act as an engine for breaking down biogeographical barriers allowing the distribution of a species to expand, and with this distributional expansion changes in the morphological structures of some species linked to their phenotypic plasticity could be promoted.
