The small‐bat‐in‐summer paradigm: Energetics and adaptive behavioural routines of bats investigated through a stochastic dynamic model

Published: September 2023

AbstractStrong seasonality at high latitudes represents a major challenge for many endotherms as they must balance survival and reproduction in an environment that varies widely in food availability and temperature. To avoid energetic mismatches caused by limited foraging time and stochastic weather conditions, bats employ the energy‐saving state of torpor during summer to save accumulated energy reserves.However, at high‐latitude small‐bats‐in‐summer face a particular challenge: as nocturnal foragers, they rely on the darkness at night to avoid predators and/or interspecific competition, but live in an environment with short, light summer nights, and even a lack of true night at the northernmost distributions of some bat species.To predict optimal behaviour in relation to latitudinal variation in diurnal cycles, we constructed a stochastic dynamic programming model of bats living at high latitudes. Using a stochastic dynamic programming framework with values that are representative for our study system, we show that individual energetic reserves are a strong driver of daytime use of torpor and night‐time foraging behaviour alike, with these linked effects being both temperature‐ and photoperiod‐dependent.We further used the model to predict survival probabilities at five locations across a latitudinal gradient (60.1° N to 70.9° N), finding that combinations of photoperiod and temperature conditions limited population distributions in the model.To verify our model results, we compared predictions for optimal decisions with our own empirical data collected on northern bats (Eptesicus nilssonii) from two latitudes in Norway. The similarities between our predictions and observations provide strong evidence that this model framework incorporates the most important drivers of diurnal decision‐making in bat physiology and behaviour.Comparing empirical data and model predictions also revealed that bats facing lighter night conditions further north restrict their mass gain, which strengthens the hypothesis that predation threat is a main driver of bat nocturnality. Our model findings regarding state‐dependent decisions in bats should contribute to the understanding of how bats cope with the summer challenges at high latitudes.

Published: September 2023

AbstractThrough analysis of the narratives of participants to the London Common Operating Picture (COP), this study discusses the “information warehouse” and the “trading zone” theoretical perspectives on the COP that consider it, respectively, as an information system to share common information on a crisis or as a relational space of learning in which common meanings enable decision‐making and coordination. The trading zone approach has started to examine its role as a coordination tool, but there is little empirical research on how it can foster network's collaboration. Through an exploration of the COP participants' positions as boundary spanners, this study puts forward the trading zone perspective, showing that in London it has become a regular mechanism of collaboration and coordination. It argues that boundary spanners operate at multiple boundaries that enable network's collaboration and coordination, and the relational character of the COP create bonds of trust that foster collaboration and common understandings on the role of communication, collaboration, information sharing, and coordination for the security of all. We show that the COP is a relational space that creates a sense of belonging to a common community of security that believes in the role of networks' information sharing and collaboration for urban resilience.
An examination of self‐efficacy and sense of belonging on accounting student achievement

Published: September 2023

AbstractStudent success is impacted by many factors, both individual and institutional. We examine Tinto's (Journal of College Student Retention: Research, Theory & Practice, 2017, 19, 254) theoretical model of achievement by surveying students enrolled in an introductory accounting subject (n = 132) at a New Zealand university twice and relating their responses to their levels of achievement in the subject. We find that both self‐efficacy beliefs and a sense of belonging to the university are significantly related to academic success. This study builds on the body of work examining non‐cognitive factors in accounting education and provides practical implications for accounting educators.

Published: September 2023

AbstractBackgroundOral health promotion initiatives must be evidence‐based and consistent with broader health messaging. The Oral Health Messages for the Australian Public were first produced in 2009 and sought to enable a focused, and strategic approach to oral health promotion in Australia. As the evidence base and needs of the Australian population have since changed, this consensus statement was updated in 2022–2023.MethodsThe process of updating the messages consisted of 3 phases (preparatory phase, the Delphi technique, final revision phase). The preparatory phase included public and expert consultation, an umbrella review of published scientific literature and review of available recommendations, policies and guidelines. The Delphi technique used in this study was guided by Guidance on Conducting and REporting DElphi Studies (CREDES) and included 2 voting rounds. There were 70 experts in round 1 and 60 experts in round 2. Delphi participants comprised of experts from a variety of fields to ensure diversity and inclusion, balance expertise and maximize stakeholder representation. Consensus was defined as 75% agreement.ResultsA total of 11 messages were included in the 2022 update of Oral Health Messages for Australia.ConclusionThe updated oral health messages will support oral health promotion policy and activity at both individual and population level to improve the oral health of Australians.

Published: September 2023

AbstractAimThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the 18‐month retrospective study of self‐etch adhesive (Prime&Bond One Select) and self‐etch mode of universal adhesives (Single Bond Universal, Gluma Bond Universal) applied to non‐carious cervical lesions according to the World Dental Federation criteria.Materials and MethodsThirty patients without any systemic disease, good oral hygiene, having at least 20 teeth and six non‐carious cervical lesions treated using a self‐etch mode of adhesives operated between January and March 2017. Accordingly, 335 restorations were evaluated according to the World Dental Federation criteria at 3, 6, 12 and 18 months. Pillai's Trace test was used to determine the interaction of criteria with time and adhesive systems. IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0 program was used in the analysis. Value of P < 0.05 was accepted as a criterion for statistical significance.ResultsAt the end of 18 months, participation was 100%. There was a statistically significant difference P < 0.05 between Prime&Bond One Select and Single Bond Universal, Prime&Bond One Select and Gluma Bond Universal in the 18‐month period. In terms of marginal staining, fracture of material and retention, recurrence of caries, erosion and abfraction, tooth integrity criteria at the end of the 18 months, Prime&Bond One Select performed clinically very good, Single Bond Universal and Gluma Bond Universal performed clinically good according to World Dental Federation criteria. Marginal adaptation criteria, Prime&Bond One Select, Single Bond Universal and Gluma Bond Universal performed clinically good. Retention loss rate was found to be the lowest in Prime&Bond One Select and the highest in Gluma Bond Universal.ConclusionAccordingly, 18‐month evaluation of all adhesives used in the study showed clinically acceptable results in all of the World Dental Federation criteria.
Increasing the adoption of conservation agriculture: A framed field experiment in Northern Ghana
Authors: Ambler Kate , de Brauw Alan , Murphy Mike 
Published: September 2023

AbstractConservation agriculture techniques have the potential to increase agricultural production while decreasing CO2 emissions, yet adoption in the developing world remains low—in part because many years of continuous adoption may be required to realize gains in production. We conduct a framed field experiment in northern Ghana to study how incentives and peer information may affect adoption. Incentives increase adoption, both while they are available and after withdrawal. There is no overall effect of peer information, but we do find evidence that information about long‐term adoption increased adoption, particularly when that information shows that yield gains have been achieved.

Published: September 2023

AbstractProblemAscending bacterial infection is associated with ∼ 40% of spontaneous preterm birth (PTB), and Ureaplasma spp. is one of the most common bacteria isolated from the amniotic fluid. Developing novel in vitro models that mimic in vivo uterine physiology is essential to study microbial pathogenesis. We utilized the feto‐maternal interface organ‐on‐chip (FMi‐OOC) device and determined the propagation of Ureaplasma parvum, and its impact on cell signaling and inflammation.Method of studyFMi‐OOC is a microphysiologic device mimicking fetal membrane/decidua interconnected through microchannels. The impact of resident decidual CD45+ leukocytes was also determined by incorporating them into the decidual chamber in different combinations with U. parvum. We tested the propagation of live U. parvum from the decidual to the amniochorion membranes (immunocytochemistry and quantitative PCR), determined its impact on cytotoxicity (LDH assay), cell signaling (JESSTM Western Blot), cellular transition (immunostaining for vimentin and cytokeratin), and inflammation (cytokine bead array).ResultsU. parvum transversed the chorion and reached the amnion epithelium after 72 hours but did not induce cell signaling kinases (p38MAPK and JNK) activation, or cellular transition (epithelial‐mesenchymal), regardless of the presence of immune cells. The inflammatory response was limited to the choriodecidual interface and did not promote inflammation in the amnion layer.ConclusionsOur data suggest that U. parvum is poorly immunogenic and does not produce massive inflammatory changes at the feto‐maternal interface. We speculate that the presence of U. parvum may still compromise the feto‐maternal interface making it susceptible to other pathogenic infection.
Improving member satisfaction with cooperatives: The role of participation in governance
Authors: Liu Ziming , Qu Jie , Wu Xinrui , Niu Xing , Feng Shuyi 
Published: September 2023

AbstractThis paper estimates the impact of participation in governance on member satisfaction with cooperatives using survey data from 960 land cooperative members in the Yangtze River Delta. The instrumental variable approach is used to address potential endogeneity. We find that participation in governance increases member satisfaction with cooperatives by approximately 26.2%. In particular, the impact of participation in governance is much higher for elite members with political connections than for ordinary members. The recognition of member rights and duties increases the likelihood of member participation in governance. To achieve the long‐term development of cooperative organizations, policy‐makers should encourage cooperative members to actively participate in governance, for example, by increasing cooperative members’ understanding of their rights and responsibilities.

SummaryBackgroundComparative long‐term efficacy of entecavir (ETV) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) for prevention of disease progression to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) among high‐risk patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB)‐related compensated cirrhosis is controversial.AimsTo compare the long‐term efficacy of ETV and TDF in HCC prevention in patients with CHB‐related cirrhosis, and to evaluate predictive risk factors for HCC development.MethodsFrom January 2008 to March 2018, 894 treatment‐naïve patients with CHB‐related compensated cirrhosis on ETV or TDF were enrolled based on the longitudinal cohort study. Data were originally collected for 7.3 years of follow‐up or after the launch of TDF in 2011. Only the 5‐year cumulative incidence and risk factors of HCC were assessed.ResultTotal 678 and 216 patients received ETV and TDF, respectively. The cumulative risk of HCC at 1, 3 and 5 years of follow‐up was 1.6%, 11.3% and 18.7%, respectively, in the ETV group; and 0.9%, 6.7% and 10.7%, respectively, in the TDF group (P = 0.0305). Univariate and adjusted‐multivariable models revealed that platelet count, alpha‐fetoprotein (AFP) levels and upper gastrointestinal (UGI) varices were independent risk factors for HCC development. TDF resulted in risk of HCC development compared to ETV with adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) of 0.66 (95% confidence interval [CI]:0.40, 1.08; P = 0.0971), 0.69 (95% CI: 0.42, 1.14; P = 0.1488) and 0.66 (95% CI: 0.38, 1.14; P = 0.1407) under stepwise selection, propensity score adjustment, and propensity score matching multivariable models, respectively.ConclusionsFor treatment‐naïve patients with CHB‐related compensated cirrhosis with 5‐year follow‐up, after variable adjustments, propensity score approaches and subgroup analyses, TDF showed a lower rate of HCC development that did not reach statistical significance, compared to the ETV.
Review article: liver disease in adults with variants in the cholestasis‐related genes ABCB11, ABCB4 and ATP8B1
Authors: Nayagam Jeremy S. , Williamson Catherine , Joshi Deepak , Thompson Richard J. 
Published: September 2023

SummaryBackgroundChildren with intrahepatic cholestasis and genetic variants which result in the disruption of the formation and maintenance of bile (ABCB11, ABCB4 and ATP8B1) generally have a rapidly progressive clinical course. Adults with different phenotypes of cholestasis are increasingly being evaluated for variants in these genes associated with childhood diseases.AimsTo review the literature with respect to the presence of variants in cholestasis‐related genes in adults with various liver phenotypes, and provide clinical implications of the findings.MethodsA search of the literature on variants in specific cholestasis‐related genes in adults was conducted.ResultsThe common variant p.Val444Ala in ABCB11 confers increased risk of drug‐induced liver injury and intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). Individuals with variants in ABCB4 are at risk of ICP and low phospholipid‐associated cholelithiasis. Variants in ABCB4, and possibly ABCB11 and ATP8B1, can be identified in up to a third of patients with cryptogenic chronic cholestasis.ConclusionsIndividuals with variants in ABCB11 rarely develop cholestasis until BSEP function dips below a threshold, which is also affected by other factors (e.g., drugs, hormones). However, variants in ABCB4 and consequent reduction in MDR3 protein, have a more linear dose‐response curve. In individuals with an ABCB11 variant, medications known to reduce BSEP activity should be used cautiously; they should be monitored during pregnancy for ICP; and first‐degree relatives should be counselled and screened. No proven management strategy exists, although ursodeoxycholic acid may be beneficial. Further work is needed to define the genotype‐phenotype correlation and natural history, and to evaluate the penetrance.
Willingness to pay for credence attributes associated with agri‐food products—Evidence from Canada
Authors: Traoré Ousmane Z. , Tamini Lota D. , Korai Bernard 
Published: September 2023

AbstractCredence attributes such as environmental impact, origin, fairness/unfairness, and food safety/health are not available with certainty prior to or at the time of the consumer purchase decision. This creates a problem of imperfect or asymmetric information, leading to suboptimal supply and demand for products with these desirable attributes. Using a representative sample of 2001 Canadian consumers, we adopt, within an attribute‐based decision‐making framework, the asymptotically efficient double‐bounded stated preference approach, to estimate Canadian consumers' willingness to pay for origin, fairness, environmental impact, and food safety attributes associated with pork chops and fresh apples. We find that, on average, consumers are willing to pay significantly more for pork chops and fresh apples that are farmers‐advantaged, sourced from their own province, grown or raised under a production system designed to be environmentally sustainable, and chemical‐free. However, these findings differ significantly by the province of origin, gender, age, and income of the respondents, as well as by product type and attributes being valued.
