Simulation and prediction of seam puckering in the layers of woven fabrics using a yarn-level model
Authors: Kargar Motahareh , Payvandy Pedram 
Published: December 2022

PurposeSimulating the behavior of clothing has always been of interest in the apparel, fashion and computer game industries. With the development of these industries, there is a need to increase the accuracy of clothing simulation techniques. A garment contains many seams whose behavior affects its final appearance. In this study, a numerical model is presented to simulate seam puckers in single- and double-layer fabrics.Design/methodology/approachA yarn-level simulation technique has been used for this purpose. Based on this technique, the individual threads in the fabric structure and the sewing threads are modeled separately. Then, their behavior and interaction with each other are considered in the seam pucker model.FindingsThe model is used to simulate the real samples. The results show that the proposed model is able to simulate the degree of seam puckering for a single-layer fabric with an average error of 7.9% and for a double-layer fabric with an average error of 8.5%.Originality/valueThe behavior of the seam is affected by the properties, behavior and interaction of the sewing threads and yarns in the fabric structure. In previous studies, the parameters related to seams and fabrics were not fully considered. In this study, a new yarn-level model is presented to simulate seam puckering in woven fabrics. The most important advantage of this type of simulation is the ability to examine the interaction of fabric threads as well as the interaction of sewing threads with each other and with the threads of the fabric structure.

Purpose
This study aims to investigate the response by a multi-campus private higher education provider to a major crisis. This study examined what elements of complex adaptive systems (CAS) were activated and/or developed within the organization during the onset of the COVID-19 global pandemic, through a retrospective analysis of organizational responses.

Design/methodology/approach
A retrospective qualitative approach has been used. The theory of CAS has been used as the theoretical lens to explore the organizational context, responses and behaviours during the first year of the COVID-19 crisis. A series of semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 senior leaders across the major functions of the organization spread over multiple campuses.

Findings
Findings point to coverage of the main CAS characteristics in the organizational responses to the pandemic, however, in varying degrees. There was strong evidence for the application of guiding principles, for self-organizing, for micro-diversity coupled with independent actors and new generative relationships, all brought about by the chaos the pandemic generated. This study concludes that the global pandemic presented this organization with the impetus for rapid and agile responses to what ultimately has become a constructive crisis, paving the way for key elements of CAS theory to be enacted. This study recommend embedding the conscious creation of an adaptive space within ongoing strategic organizational transformation initiatives.

Originality/value
There is scant literature on CAS as applied to crises from organizations in the higher education sector and notably from outside of the health/medical fields. As a result, this study offers a novel and original approach to applying CAS theory during a major crisis. In addition to the findings above, this study also found an emergent characteristic, that of agility, which could be further tested as a potential theoretical addition to CAS theory.
Evolution of RCEP rules of origin (comparison with ASEAN plus FTAs and recent mega-FTAs/EPAs)
Authors: Hasegawa Jitsuya 
Published: December 2022

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to analyze the evolution of the rules of origin (RoO) of Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP).Design/methodology/approachThis analysis is done by comparing them with those of existing FTAs/EPAs of ASEAN with other RCEP member countries, and also examining the impact of recent mega-FTAs/EPAs, such as TPP11 and Japan-EU EPA, in which some of the member countries participated.FindingsRCEP holds great significance in that it connects Japan and China and Japan and South Korea, which previously have not had any EPAs/FTAs, transforms this massive economic sphere from one with minutely divided and differing RoO under ASEAN plus FTAs to one that is seamlessly connected with those of having evolved into the unified RoO under RCEP, and realizes ideal production networks in Asia.Originality/valueThis paper makes it clear that RCEP, while based on ASEAN plus FTAs, reflects progressive provisions of recent mega-FTAs/EPAs, and adopts simpler and more systematic rules. These provisions limit the distortive effect on trade, realize ideal production networks in Asia, and are appropriate as uniform RoO connecting networks across this massive economic sphere. It also points out that there are provisions that have not been introduced and those that are considered to have been incomplete as a result of negotiations, and the possibility of evolving into more ideal RoO by utilizing the system for revisions established under the agreement.

Published: December 2022

Purpose
Islamic label of an organization attracts Muslims for investment. There is a rising concern with a huge profile of corporate governance related to the Islamic rules (principles). In this context, this study aims to examine the effect of Islamic labelling on corporate governance in the Pakistani setting.

Design/methodology/approach
This study used a panel data set comprising 120 non-financial Shariah-compliant and non-Shariah-compliant Islamic firms listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange over the period 2013–2020. For analysis, this study used static panel data estimation techniques. Moreover, for robustness check, this study also applied the system generalized method of movements procedure.

Findings
The findings deduced from empirical estimations reveal that Islamic labelling is positively associated with corporate governance. Overall, results indicate that Islamic labelling promotes corporate governance practices in Pakistan.

Originality/value
It is of utmost importance in terms of both theoretical and empirical context that Pakistan is a Muslim country having a 96.5% Muslim population, and it is evident that Muslims are allowed to execute their business under the guidance of Shariah principles. This study is unique because most of the previous literature provides empirical support related to the impact of corporate governance on capital structure, profitability and firm performance in conventional and Islamic firms. Practically, there is scarce literature on this issue.

Authors: Zhang Xin , Hu Jieming 
Published: December 2022

PurposeThe combination of mobile devices and innovative tools offers new possibilities for the development of a community of practice for design makers. Mobile learning has become an essential method that design makers should adopt. The main content of this study is to explore the characteristics of learning behaviors and learning needs of creative design makers' group in forming a community of practice in the era of mobile learning.Design/methodology/approachThis study conducted questionnaire research on the potentially associated or directly associated population of design makers. The process of the study also combined observational and interview studies to compensate for the lack of questionnaire research.FindingsBased on the support of mobile learning technology, design makers share and co-create to achieve individual development and evolution of learning organizations, and produce creative value. Design-maker communities of practice form common communities in the framework of informal organizations to support continuous individual learning. Convergent interests or concerns in making things, real-world contexts based on makerspaces and hands-on practice based on real projects are the basis for forming design-maker communities of practice. A variety of open-source hardware, software and platforms that can support mobile learning are important for the development of design-maker communities of practice. The design-maker community of practice needs group factors, activity development, physical and technical resources, spatial support and institutional norms to enhance learning behaviors and satisfy learning needs.Originality/valueThe discovery and construction of these associated factors can help creative design practitioners form a lasting and virtuous organizational development. This study facilitates the formation of a social network for learning and knowledge sharing among design-maker communities of practice. It enhances the innovation ability and enthusiasm of design makers according to the population characteristics and learning needs of design makers. This study also facilitates the generation of a positive adaptive maker culture and maker spirit within design maker organizations.

Published: December 2022

PurposeThe SECURE STAIRS framework for integrated care is a trauma-informed approach to supporting staff and young people within the Children and Young People’s Secure Estate (CYPSE) in the UK. Within secure settings, therapeutic climate is a concept that encapsulates an individual’s perception of safety, connectedness with others and level of support within the environment. To support evaluation of the SECURE STAIRS framework, a Secure Children’s Home (SCH) within the North East of England examined therapeutic climate for staff and young people annually using the Essen Climate Evaluation Schema (EssenCES) over a three-year period. This paper aims to present the findings.Design/methodology/approachOver the three years, a total of 71 young people and 214 staff EssenCES questionnaires were administered. Between 2020 and 2021, the setting also experienced significant changes resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Numbers of young people also decreased within the setting over the three-year period.FindingsResults indicated a positive trend for therapeutic climate sub-scores. For example, Experienced Safety for young people significantly increased from 2020 to 2021. Additionally, therapeutic hold for staff was significantly higher in 2020 and 2021 in comparison to 2018.Originality/valueFindings are discussed in relation to implementation of the SECURE STAIRS framework and providing trauma-informed care for vulnerable young people within secure settings. Implications for practice are explored.
Identification of dominant taxa of sooty moulds and their impact on the leaf microbiome
Authors: Lv Zhiyuan , Hu Chong , Hu Yue , Wu Daojun , Zhou Hanyu , Tian Lichao 
Published: December 2022

AbstractSooty moulds are a widespread group of saprophytic ascomycetes that obtain nutrients from honeydew excreted by sap‐feeding insects and coat plant tissue with mycelia. Research on sooty moulds has focused on fungal morphology and phylogeny‐based taxonomy, but little research has been conducted on the community structure. In this study, the PacBio sequencing platform was used to systematically analyse the fungal and bacterial diversity of the sooty mould community on camphor trees at two sampling sites. Six dominant sooty mould genera were identified, of which three genera of Dothideomycetes were enriched only in diseased samples, while three genera of Eurotiomycetes were present in both healthy and diseased samples. Bacterial diversity and co‐occurrence network analysis indicated that the sooty moulds had an effect on the leaf surface bacterial communities but not on the endophyte communities. There was a close correlation between the six dominant pathogenic groups and bacteria in the soot layer. Transcriptomic data from Cinnamomum camphora samples showed that the sooty moulds that did not penetrate plant cells not only affected plant photosynthesis but also induced plant defence responses. This study systematically studied the microbial community of sooty moulds, indicating the close relationship between sooty moulds and the bacterial communities.
Capital deprivation, assets, and the Universal Child Allowance for Social Protection in a Paraná slum, Argentina
Authors: Dapuez Andrés 
Published: December 2022

AbstractIn this article, I describe a case in which a mother and her son, while discussing what they perceive to be the purpose of the Argentinian conditional cash transfer programme known as the ‘Universal Child Allowance for Social Protection’, also project different economic returns for the son's future. The decisions they make contradict the ultimate purpose of this policy: to accumulate human capital in the recipient through formal education. The young man's abandonment of secondary school and his entry into the informal labour market trigger different reflections on his future for mother and son. Despite the fact that both project future returns for investing the money, the mother, acting as administrator of the programme, reproduces state‐driven processes of capital deprivation at the expense of her son's human capital.
A review on egg pasteurization and disinfection: Traditional and novel processing technologies
Authors: Bermudez‐Aguirre Daniela , Niemira Brendan A. 
Published: December 2022

AbstractSalmonella Enteritidis is a pathogen related to many foodborne outbreaks involving eggs and egg products. Regulations about whether eggs should be pasteurized are very different and inconsistent worldwide. In the United States, eggs are not required to be pasteurized. Hence, less than 3% of the eggs in the country are pasteurized. The standard pasteurization method (57°C, 57.5 min) uses a long thermal process that increases the cost of the product and affects its quality. Foodborne outbreaks can be reduced if eggs are properly pasteurized to inactivate Salmonella spp. However, the technology to pasteurize eggs needs to offer a faster and more reliable method that can be scaled up to industry settings at a low cost and without affecting product quality. Several novel technologies have been tested for eggshell disinfection and egg pasteurization. Some thermal technologies have been evaluated for the pasteurization of eggs. Microwave has limited penetration depth and is a technical challenge for egg pasteurization. However, radio frequency can penetrate eggshells effectively to inactivate Salmonella, considerably reduce processing time, and maintain the quality of the product. Nonthermal technologies such as ultraviolet, pulsed light, cold plasma, ozone, pressure carbon dioxide, electrolyzed water, and natural antimicrobials have been explored for surface cleaning of the intact egg as alternatives without affecting the internal quality. This review presents some of these novel technologies and the current challenges. It discusses the possible combination of factors to achieve the egg's internal pasteurization and the eggshell's disinfection without affecting the quality at a low cost for the consumer.

Published: December 2022

AbstractFish are prone to spoilage and deterioration during processing, storage, or transportation. Therefore, there is a need for rapid and efficient techniques to detect and evaluate fish freshness during different periods or conditions. Gas sensors are increasingly important in the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of high‐protein foods, including fish. Among them, metal–oxide–semiconductor resistive (MOSR) sensors with advantages such as low cost, small size, easy integration, and high sensitivity have been extensively studied in the past few years, which gradually show promising practical application prospects. Herein, we take the detection, classification, and assessment of fish freshness as the actual demand, and summarize the physical and chemical changes of fish during the spoilage process, the volatile marker gases released, and their production mechanisms. Then, we introduce the advantages, performance parameters, and working principles of gas sensors, and summarize the MOSR gas sensors aimed at detecting different kinds of volatile marker gases of fish spoiling in the last 5 years. After that, this paper reviews the research and application progress of MOSR gas sensor arrays and electronic nose technology for various odor indicators and fish freshness detection. Finally, this review points out the multifaceted challenges (sampling system, sensing module, and pattern recognition technology) faced by the rapid detection technology of fish freshness based on metal oxide gas sensors, and the potential solutions and development directions are proposed from the view of multidisciplinary intersection.

Published: December 2022

AbstractBackgroundWith the widespread use of alectinib in patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)‐positive non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC), its cardiotoxicity has gradually emerged, including new‐onset sinus bradycardia (SB). However, the incidence, timing, severity, and risk factors of alectinib‐induced bradycardia remain unknown.MethodsFrom January 2020 to June 2022, 93 patients with ALK‐positive NSCLC treated with alectinib were enrolled in this retrospective analysis. These patients had heart rate (HR) recorded before and after alectinib administration. By reviewing electronic medical records and follow‐up, the HR changes of patients during medication were recorded. The potential risk factors associated with alectinib‐induced SB were explored.ResultsAccording to an HR cut‐off of 60 beats per minute (bpm), 47 patients (50.54%) experienced at least one recorded bradycardia. The mean HR of total participants before alectinib administration was 78.32 (standard deviation [SD], 9.48) and after was 64.88 (SD, 12.21). The median maximum change in HR (range) for all patients was 11 (−55, +4) bpm. For the bradycardia subgroup, the HR of most patients (76.60%) hovered around 50–60 bpm, and 61.70% of SB occurred within 3 months after alectinib administration. Multivariate analysis indicated that baseline HR (odds ratio [OR] 0.86, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.79–0.93, p < 0.001) and history of hypertension (OR 13.71, 95% CI 2.49–76.38, p = 0.003) were independent risk factors for alectinib‐related bradycardia.ConclusionsAlectinib‐induced bradycardia had a high incidence, appeared relatively early, and was reversible by dose reduction or withdrawal.
Cellular expansion of MSCs: Shifting the regenerative potential
Authors: Miclau Katherine , Hambright William S. , Huard Johnny , Stoddart Martin J. , Bahney Chelsea S. 
Published: December 2022

AbstractMesenchymal‐derived stromal or progenitor cells, commonly called “MSCs,” have attracted significant clinical interest for their remarkable abilities to promote tissue regeneration and reduce inflammation. Recent studies have shown that MSCs' therapeutic effects, originally attributed to the cells' direct differentiation capacity into the tissue of interest, are largely driven by the biomolecules the cells secrete, including cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, and extracellular vesicles containing miRNA. This secretome coordinates upregulation of endogenous repair and immunomodulation in the local microenvironment through crosstalk of MSCs with host tissue cells. Therapeutic applications for MSCs and their secretome‐derived products often involve in vitro monolayer expansion. However, consecutive passaging of MSCs significantly alters their therapeutic potential, inducing a broad shift from a pro‐regenerative to a pro‐inflammatory phenotype. A consistent by‐product of in vitro expansion of MSCs is the onset of replicative senescence, a state of cell arrest characterized by an increased release of proinflammatory cytokines and growth factors. However, little is known about changes in the secretome profile at different stages of in vitro expansion. Some culture conditions and bioprocessing techniques have shown promise in more effectively retaining the pro‐regenerative and anti‐inflammatory MSC phenotype throughout expansion. Understanding how in vitro expansion conditions influence the nature and function of MSCs, and their associated secretome, may provide key insights into the underlying mechanisms driving these alterations. Elucidating the dynamic and diverse changes in the MSC secretome at each stage of in vitro expansion is a critical next step in the development of standardized, safe, and effective MSC‐based therapies.

AbstractThe aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of clinical methods in identifying the presence of second mesiobuccal canal in maxillary first molars. The influence of age and experience with microscopy was also assessed. Sixty six teeth were selected and the mesiobuccal canal was confirmed in all of the samples by Cone‐Beam Computed Tomography. After endodontic cavity access, teeth were evaluated through direct visual; dental loupe and operating microscope. None of the methods was successful in finding the mesiobuccal canal in all samples. Professionals <40, the magnification did not influence the location. Professionals >40, the magnification significantly influenced the location. In the direct vision, professionals >40 years located fewer canals than those <40 years of age with experience. In conclusion, these preliminary findings showed that when the microscope was used, the professionals with experience, regardless of age, found a higher number of canals. The use of the microscope was significant for professionals >40 years.
