Published: March 2023

Background: When health-related research funding agencies choose to fund research, they balance a number of competing issues: costs, stakeholder views and potential benefits. The REWARD Alliance, and the related Lancet-REWARD Campaign, question whether those decisions are yielding all the value they could. Methods: A group of health-related research funding agencies, organisations that represent health-related research funding agencies and those that inform and set health-related-research funding policy from around the world have come together since 2016 to share, learn, collaborate and influence emerging practice. This group meets under the name of the Ensuring Value in Research Funders’ Forum (EViR Funders’ Forum). The EViR Funders’ Forum worked together to develop a set of ten Guiding Principles, that if funders adhered to would reduce research waste and ensure value in research. Results: The EViR Funders’ Forum has previously agreed and published a Consensus Statement. The Forum has agreed on a set of ten Guiding Principles to help health-research funders to maximise the value of research by ensuring that: research priorities are justifiable; the design, conduct and analysis of research minimise bias; regulation and management are proportionate to risks; methods and findings are accessible in full; and findings are appropriately and effectively disseminated and used. Conclusions: When setting research funding policy, we must balance multiple stakeholders’ needs and expectations. When funders do this well, they maximise the probability of benefits to society from the research they support - when funders do this badly, they passively allow or actively contribute to research waste. These challenges must be resolved by funders either working together or in conjunction with other actors in the research ecosystem.

Published: March 2023

Background: Cayratia trifolia has been extensively studied for its bioactive components and medicinal properties. This study was carried out to evaluate the fermentation ability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae 2.1 yeast to determine suitable fermentation conditions. Methods: The initial sugar content for three-leaf cayratia fermentation and fermentation efficiency were calculated. The temperature for three-leaf cayratia fermentation, incubation time, and preliminary 1 liter of three-leaf cayratia wine fermentation were determined. All treatments showed that the total sugar content decreased after 9 days of fermentation compared to the initial level. Temperature during fermentation has a direct effect on yeast activity. Temperature increases the growth of yeast and speed of enzyme activity. The fermentation time changes depending on temperature, initial soluble solid contents, and yeast strains, leading to changes in the ethanol content after the end of fermentation. Results: The results showed that the S. cerevisiae 2.1 strain was able to ferment at room temperature with an initial pH of 4.5, 24 °Brix, and a yeast density of 107 cells/mL. The appropriate fermentation conditions determined for S. cerevisiae 2.1 yeast were 24 °Brix and incubation at room temperature (28-33°C) with a fermentation time of 11 days. Concusion: In 1 liter scale fermentation, three-leaf cayratia wine had 9.46% (v/v) and the fermentation efficiency was 90.34%. The wine produced had a unique color, flavor, and aroma that met the sensory evaluation of the Vietnamese standard TCVN-3217:79.
Climate Change, Firm Performance, and Investor Surprises
Authors: Pankratz Nora , Bauer Rob , Derwall Jeroen 
Published: March 2023

We link records of firm performance, equity analyst forecast errors, and stock returns around companies’ earnings announcements to firm-specific measures of heat exposure for more than 17,000 firms in 93 countries from 1995 to 2019. We find that increased exposure to extremely high temperatures reduces firms’ revenues and operating income. A one-standard-deviation increase in the number of hot days decreases revenues (operating income) by 0.6% (1.8%) of the average quarterly revenue (operating income). Moreover, we provide evidence that increased heat exposure impacts negatively on firm financial performance relative to analyst predictions and on earnings announcement returns. These findings indicate that capital market participants do not fully anticipate the economic consequences of heat as a first order physical climate risk.

Authors: Chester Kayleigh , Whiting Lisa , Spencer Neil , Brooks Fiona 
Published: March 2023

Background: Bullying among young people has been acknowledged as a public health concern. Relational bullying is the systematic manipulation and damage of peer relationships; the way in which it is perceived can influence detection and interventions, in view of this, relational bullying warranted further exploration from the perspectives of young people. Aim: To understand the experience and perception of relational bullying among young people. Methods: A qualitative approach underpinned the undertaking of 11 face-to-face interviews with young people aged 12–18 years. Data was thematically analysed. Findings: Seven themes emerged: The complexity of defining bullying, The role of friends; Negative impacts, Social media, Normalisation, Personal resources to aid navigation, External resources to aid navigation. Conclusions: Factors that help and hinder the navigation of relational bullying were identified, the family playing a crucial role in mitigating the negative effects. The findings have the potential to be relevant to other forms of bullying.
‘We should not have to choose between hunger and death’: exploring the experiences of primary caregivers of recipients of a South African child cash transfer programme during COVID-19 lockdown in Cape Town, South Africa
Authors: Zembe-Mkabile Wanga , Ramokolo Vundli , Doherty Tanya 
Published: March 2023

Background:The advent of the COVID-19 pandemic in South Africa and across the globe posed special challenges and implications for low-income families with children. In this study we explored the experiences of primary caregivers of children receiving a South African social assistance programme, the Child Support Grant (CSG), during lockdown in Cape Town, South Africa, and sought to understand whether and to what extent the underlying logic of cash transfers such as the CSG speaks to the pitfalls of the social protection paradigm and the potential for moving closer to a transformative social policy approach.
Methods:We conducted 26 telephonic qualitative interviews with primary caregivers of recipients of South Africa’s CSG that were part of a longitudinal cohort study assessing the impact of the CSG on child nutritional status and food security.
Results:Even though primary caregivers of the CSG and their children and households were already living in precarity before the pandemic, COVID-19, and particularly the hard lockdown, worsened their social, economic and living conditions, especially as regards hunger and food insecurity.
Conclusion:Low-income women bore the brunt of the pandemic in their roles as mothers, providers and homemakers. The pandemic has highlighted the inadequacies of the social protection paradigm that underlies the design of cash transfers such as the CSG, which has a narrowed focus on chronic poverty and vulnerability. It has also highlighted opportunities to shift to a transformative social policy framework that incorporates production, redistribution, social cohesion, adequacy and protection.

Authors: Shin Hyun-il , Cho Kwang-Jae , Kim Min-Sik , Joo Young-Hoon 
Published: March 2023

Background
Human papilloma virus (HPV)-related tonsil cancer is associated with favorable outcomes.

Objective
The purpose of this study was to define factors affecting distant metastasis in patients with surgically treated HPV-positive tonsil cancer.

Methods
The present study enrolled 76 patients diagnosed with HPV-positive tonsil cancer who underwent primary surgery between January 2010 and December 2021.

Results
Twelve (15.7%) patients experienced a distant failure with a median follow-up time of 43 months. Sites of distant metastasis included the lung (n = 10), liver (n = 1), and brain (n = 1). Upon multivariate analysis, an advanced T stage (odds ratio [OR]: 13.94, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.29–149.863, p = 0.003) and margin involvement (OR: 5.96, 95% CI: 1.33–26.76, p = 0.02) were independent predictors of distant metastases. The five-year disease-specific survival for the entire cohort was 85%. The multivariate analysis confirmed that distant metastasis (hazard ratio [HR]: 12.688, 95% CI: 3.424–47.016; p < 0.001) and margin involvement (HR: 6.243; 95% CI: 1.681–23.191; p = 0.006) were significant factors associated with the five-year disease-specific survival.

Conclusion
HPV-positive tonsil cancer patients with an advanced T stage and a positive surgical margin have a substantial risk of distant metastases. Distant metastasis and margin involvement are factors that affect their survival.
The New Alternative Periodic Table of Atoms by Peter Alstatt.
Authors: Alstatt Peter 
Published: March 2023

The New Alternative Periodic Table of the Atoms is a novel arrangement of the elements based on the number of outer electrons and the number of shells. It is a grid with the X-axis equal to the number of outer electrons and the Y-axis equal to the number of shells an atom has. Each atom / cluster of atoms is on a square based on the number of outer electrons and the number of shells. This is the result of two years of research and analysis of the atoms, elements, molecules, chemical reactions and was first presented at the 2023 CPA Science & Engineering Fair and 2023 OCSEF. This New Alternative Periodic Table of the Atoms may give scientists insights for their future research, for example, to predict new elements and better understand the chemical bonds.
Moreover, a periodic table based on the number of outer electrons and the number of electron shells could provide a more intuitive way of understanding the chemical properties of elements. By arranging the elements according to these two parameters, we can group together elements with similar chemical properties in a way that is easy to visualize and understand. One potential benefit of this type of periodic table is that it could make it easier for scientists to predict the chemical properties of elements that have not yet been discovered or synthesized. By looking at the position of an unknown element in the table, researchers could make educated guesses about the element's reactivity, electronegativity, and other important properties.
Overall, a periodic table based on the number of outer electrons and the number of shells has the potential to be a valuable tool for chemists and students alike, providing new insights into the behavior of elements and facilitating the discovery of new elements with novel properties.

Authors: Thurairasu Vanitha 
Published: March 2023

Clinical waste, also known as scheduled waste, is defined as any waste that contains human tissues, blood or other bodily fluids, excretions, medication or pharmaceutical products and others. In recent decades, clinical waste generated by healthcare facilities in Malaysia has grown dramatically, especially with the exacerbation of its production during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Objective: This study aims to determine the pattern of clinical waste generation rate in the state of Selangor from 2006 to 2021. It also aims to serve as a brief to increase awareness and diligence in managing healthcare waste. Unsustainable production and consumption patterns are detrimental to the environment and may significantly affect long-term human health as well as economic stability, further entailing expensive clean-up and mitigation efforts. Hence, it is essential to ensure that legalframework and national policy towards clinical waste management measures are conducted in an environmentally friendly manner.

We present a clinical case of 22yo patient with diagnosis of pheochoromocytoma complicated with myelodysplastic syndrome as manifestation of paraneoplastic phenomenon. The onset of the disease displays typical clinical picture of pheochromacytoma. After medical examination and survey it was discovered a tumor in left adrenal gland and elevation of metanephrines and normetanephrines. In addition, patient has severe anemia and thrombocytopenia. Sternal punction with morphological examination and immunophenotyping were performed. Patient had consulted by hematologist. After all additional analysis cause of anemia and thrombocytopenia remained unknown and related to presence of tumor.Patient was performed a long-time and vast pre-operative preparation with administration of doxazosin and transfusions of blood and platelet concentrate. In continuation, mass in left adrenal gland was excised with spleen by thoracophrenolaparotomy. Morphology confirmed pheochromacytoma, which has typical histological structure and circulatory disorders. Spleen has no specifical features except of focuses of extramedullar hematopoiesis. Patient has short period of hormone therapy to avoid adrenal crisis on post-operative stage. Also massive transfutions of blood and platelet concentrate was performed due to persisting anemia and thrombocytopenia. There were no manifestations of hemorrhage syndrome after the surgery. Myelodysplastic syndrome was detected 3 month later and manifested itself in form of refractory anemia and severe thrombocytopenia, which persisted for long period and required corrections with therapy and transfusions. Only through 5-year observation after adrenalectomy patient has positive dynamic and leveling of laboratory tests without symptoms of myelodysplastic syndrome.

Published: March 2023

AbstractIn the current manuscript, we combine theq-fractional integral operator andq-fractional derivative to investigate a coupled hybrid fractionalq-differential systems with sequential fractionalq-derivatives. The existence and uniqueness of solutions for the proposed system are established by means of Leray-Schauder’s alternative and the Banach contraction principle. Furthermore, the Ulam-Hyers and Ulam-Hyers-Rassias stability results are discussed. Finally, two illustrative examples are given to highlight the theoretical findings.

Davids and Goliaths: Hidden Champions in an Age of Industrial Policy
Authors: de Melo Pimentel Bernardo , Ramírez Guillermo 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
We review the state of the current industrial champions debate and make the case for nimble, innovative ‘Davids’, rather than resource-hungry ‘Goliaths’. These export-based firms have shown robust performance in recent years and may help economies increase their resilience in times of significant uncertainty. They are more autonomous than traditional champions and they are already in our midst. The challenge for policymakers is how to foster an environment that supports Davids while keeping an eye on national strategic interests.
NSP variation on SWAT with high-resolution data: A case study
Authors: Cheng Wu , Qian Yin , Xiaoning Lu , Jun Chen , Rui Fu , Shuang Li 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
As a typical lake in the early stage of eutrophication, the non-point source pollution (NSP) in Erhai Lake was highly concerned. Since 2017, protection and rescue actions have been implemented in the Erhai Lake basin which significantly improved the water quality of Erhai Lake. But little attention has been paid to the interception effects of these actions on NSP. Based on high resolution datasets, including refinement land use/land cover (LU/LC) data, China Meteorological Assimilation Driving Database for the SWAT (CMADS), and Advanced Land Observing Satellite-1 (ALOS-12) data, the interception effects of ecological ponds newly built in 2018 on NSP was discussed with the support of the soil and water assessment (SWAT) model. These three high resolution datasets can meet the needs for simulating NSP by SWAT model, which was conductive to better reveal the interception effects of ecological ponds on NSP. Besides, the pollution load of shrubbery on Total nitrogen (TN)/Total phosphorous (TP), which has never been involved in similar research works in the Erhai Lake basin, was measured. Compared the temporal and spatial variations in TN/TP concentration before and after 2018, the interception effects of ecological ponds on NSP in the Erhai Lake basin were revealed by a sharp decrease in TN/TP concentration and a delayed presence of annual peak value about 1 month late in TN concentration before and after 2018. The interception intensity of NSP was determined by the number and volume of ecological ponds in each sub-basin and their corresponding upstream.
Review on sago thermoplastic starch composite films reinforced with nanocellulose
Authors: Jimat Dzun Noraini , Nor Yusilawati Ahmad , Puad Noor Illi Mohamad 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Recently, many studies have been carried out on developing green composites that are eco-friendly and more sustainable compared to fuel-derived composites. Thermoplastic starch (TPS) is one of the potential biopolymer materials that can be used as food packaging materials, pharmaceuticals and many other applications. Sago (Metroxylon sagu) is unlike other starch-based composite such as cassava and corn, which are highly utilized and popular option sources for variety applications in industries. This renewable starch can be a competitive starch source like other starches if rigorous scientific research study is conducted to explore other findings, which might be important for its production and usage in various industries. Research studies related to sago TPS are still lacked, and it is difficult to compare its performance with TPS made from other starches as its preparation differs based on the starch source. The TPS composite generally exhibits low mechanical strength and poor barrier properties. Reinforcing sago TPS nanocomposites with nanocellulose (NC) is expected to enhance its mechanical and barrier properties. This book chapter covers the overview of characteristics and extraction of sago from its pith as well as its usage to make thermoplastic starch composite. The characteristics of sago TPS nanocomposite reinforced with nanocellulose (NC) is also discussed based on a few research studies due to its published research findings are still limited.

Published: March 2023

Abstract
The starch-based materials such as thermoplastic starch film are a promising alternative to non-renewable petroleum-based plastics. The development of an alternative conventional plastic from bio-based materials has gained great interest following its biodegradable, non-hazardous and renewable advantages. Following that, horse chestnut is an exciting source of starch for producing thermoplastic starch film. Nonetheless, the thermoplastic starch film is weak in strength and easily affected by water due to its highly hydrophilic property, thus limiting its practicability. In this regard, the additions of nanocellulose into thermoplastic starch have shown drastic improvement in its mechanical properties and water permeability of the film. This chapter discusses the potential of nanocellulose reinforced plasticized starch from horse chestnut as a replacement for petroleum-based plastic in packaging applications.
