“This boys club world is finally getting to me”: Developing our glass consciousness to understand women's experiences in elite architecture firms
Authors: Ahuja Sumati , Weatherall Ruth 
Published: October 2022

AbstractIn this article, we take inspiration from the evolution of the material use of glass to explore how the metaphorical use of glass could be developed to understand the emerging struggles of women in architecture. Drawing on semi‐structured interviews of architects employed in professional service firms, we suggest that the multi‐faceted nature of glass helped us to identify and understand the complex experiences of inequality for women in architecture. In so doing, we make three contributions to scholarship on gender, work, and organizations. First, we demonstrate how glass barriers were truly material in their consequences for senior women, as they prevented their rise or initiated their decline. A focus on glass barriers, however, did not fully account for the experiences of younger women in these firms. Surprisingly, and in stark contrast to the “boys club world” that left many senior women in architecture with a fractured sense of self as they struggled to construct self‐affirming identities as both women and architects, we found that the exclusive use of new technologies enabled younger women architects to melt some aspects of the traditional identity and turn them into new forms. Our conceptualization of “technologies of glass” draws attention to the social, cultural, and technological resources that younger women deploy to construct a strong professional identity in the changing world of architecture. We argue that glass can be understood not just as a constraint but as a multifaceted material with limitless possibilities for design. Thus, by highlighting the material‐symbolic entanglements of the use of glass, we strengthen and refresh the metaphor of glass, to better understand the fluidity of contemporary challenges facing professional women at work.

Authors: Pawar Sanjay Krishnapratap 
Published: October 2022

AbstractEven though numerous studies provide information on marketing education to international students, research that reviews the accrued knowledge holistically remains elusive. Accordingly, the main purpose of this study is to (1) systematically synthesize, compile and understand the existing line of empirical research on the topic of marketing education to international students and (2) outline a comprehensive future research agenda to help further advance this field. This study adopts the theory‐context‐characteristics‐methodology (TCCM) framework proposed by Paul and Rosado‐Serrano to systematically review 52 articles published in A*, A and B category journals from the ABDC Journal Quality List. This systematic review reveals that the existing studies mostly focus on consumer‐specific theories and detects a need for more macro‐market, and industry‐related theoretical perspectives (theory); it also identifies research gaps related to international student host and home country settings (context), and the application of competition‐related variables for the main relationships in this field (characteristics). Finally, the author proposes several methodological best practices (methodology) to advance findings in this field.

Published: October 2022

SummaryEpigallocatechin‐3‐gallate (EGCG) can improve functional properties of β‐Lactoglobulin (βLg) by conjugation. The effects of ultrasound, a useful tool in improving the conjugation efficiency, on the various functional properties of βLg‐EGCG conjugates were investigated in this study. Results revealed βLg‐EGCG conjugates transformed from cross‐linked state to fragments of various forms with ultrasound treatment with increased of binding affinity. Meanwhile, ultrasound increased secondary structural changes in βLg in the conjugated state. Functionally, ultrasound decreased the immunoglobulin E (IgE) combing capacity of βLg and enhanced its antioxidant properties by promoting the interaction between EGCG and βLg. Moreover, ultrasound induced an increase in hydrodynamic diameter and lowered the absolute zeta potential of βLg‐EGCG conjugates, resulting in an increase in digestibility, as well as foaming and emulsification abilities, while, a decrease in thermal stability. The results provide valuable information for obtaining βLg with better functional properties for industrial production by ultrasound‐assisted covalent binding of EGCG with βLg.

Published: October 2022

AbstractThis study examined talk by parents about the early years transitions of their children (n = 7) in the context of parental non‐standard working hours and Finnish early childhood education and care (ECEC) services. Parents were interviewed at three time points: when their child was aged one, four, five or six years (a total of 21 interviews). The third interview was conducted during the COVID‐19 pandemic. This article focuses on the children's ECEC transitions and the interpretative frames used by parents when talking about their work and childcare. The frames used by the parents to discuss the children's transitions were stabilising the children's lives, balancing between staying at home and attending ECEC and adjusting to norms and rules. The diversity of families' experiences and their children's transitions during the early years should be considered when developing family policy and ECEC services.

AbstractBased on initially identified needs for further telemedicine (TM) and chronic wound management research, the objective of this article is twofold: to conduct a systematic review of existing knowledge on TM interventions in chronic wound management—including barriers and opportunities—across the specialist and primary care sectors, and to incorporate the review findings into a system framework that can be further developed and validated through empirical data. We conclude that there is a pressing need for broader and more comprehensive empirical explorations into quality improvement and integration of TM in chronic wound management, including using system frameworks that can capture cross‐sector system perspectives and associated implications. Of practical consideration, we suggest that the design and execution of TM improvement interventions and associated research projects should be conducted in close cooperation with managers and practitioners knowledgeable about barriers and opportunities that can influence the implementation of important interventions within chronic wound management.

AbstractIntroductionCatheter‐ablation (CA) of consecutive left atrial tachycardias (LAT) can be challenging. Pulsed field ablation (PFA) yields a novel nonthermal CA technology for treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). There is no data regarding PFA of LAT. This study sought to investigate PFA of consecutive LAT following prior CA of AF.MethodsConsecutive patients with LAT underwent ultrahigh‐density (UHDx) mapping. Subsequent to identification of the AT mechanism, PFA was performed at the assumed critical sites for LAT maintenance. Continuous ablation lines were performed if required and evaluated with pre‐ and post‐PFA HDx‐mapping.ResultsFifteen patients (age 70 ± 10, male 73%) who underwent 3.6 ± 2 prior AF‐CA procedures were included. The total mean procedure and fluoroscopy times were 141 ± 43 and 18 ± 10 min, respectively. All 19 of 19 (100%) LAT were successfully ablated with PFA. Two AT located at the right atria required RF‐ablation. LAT were identified as localized reentry (n = 1) and macro‐reentry LAT (n = 18) and targeted with PFA. All LAT terminated with PFA either to sinus rhythm (9/15) or a secondary AT (6/15 and subsequently to SR); 63% (12/19) terminated with the first PFA‐application. All lines (13 roof, 11 anterior, 1 mitral) were blocked. LA‐posterior‐wall isolation (LAPWI) was successfully achieved when performed (10/10). AF/AT free survival was 80% (12/15) after 153 [88–207] days of follow‐up. No procedure‐related complications occurred.ConclusionPFA of consecutive LAT is feasible and safe. Successful creation of ablation lines and LAPWI can be achieved in a short time. PFA may offer the opportunity for effective ablation of atrial arrhythmias beyond AF.

AbstractBlood pressure and pulse pressure (PP) had their own characteristics in the elderly population. This cross‐sectional study including 5030 elderly participants was conducted to describe the distribution of blood pressure and wide PP in the elderly population and find influencing factors of wide PP. Wide PP was defined as PP equal to or more than 65 mmHg, and was classified three types as low systolic blood pressure (SBP) and low diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (LSLD), high SBP and low DBP (HSLD), and high SBP and high DBP (HSHD). Using multivariate logistic regression models to analyze the associations of demographic factors, health‐related factors and lifestyle factors with different wide PP types. The associations of lifestyles with wide PP by gender were estimated by subgroup analyses. Among 5030 elderly participants, 2727 (54.2%) participants had wide PP. Logistic regression models showed older age (OR = 2.48, 95%CI: 2.14‐2.88), female (OR = 1.31, 95%CI: 1.07‐1.60), not married (OR = 1.26, 95%CI: 1.07‐1.49), having chronic diseases (OR = 1.28, 95%CI: 1.09‐1.50), current alcohol drinker (OR = 1.29, 95%CI: 1.11‐1.50) were positively associated, and higher body height (OR = .78, 95%CI: .62‐.99), higher education level (OR = .60, 95%CI: .43‐.82), current smoker (OR = .79, 95%CI: .64‐.97) were negatively associated with wide PP. Among three different types of wide PP including LSLD, HSLD, HSHD, these factors had different effects. Subgroup analyses found that only among male, current smoker was negatively associated and current alcohol drinker was positively associated with wide PP.

AbstractThe human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) are one of the readily available sources of multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and can be considered as a type of tool cells for cell‐based therapies. However, the main limitation in the clinical use of these cells is DPSC senescence, which can be induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of oral pathogenic bacteria. Up to now, far little attention has been paid to exploring the molecular mechanisms of senescence in DPSCs. So, the current study aimed to investigate the underlying molecular mechanism of senescence in hDPSCs stimulated with Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) and Escherichia coli (E. coli)‐derived LPSs, by evaluating both mRNA and protein expression of four important senescence‐related genes, including TP53, CDKN1A, CDKN2A and SIRT1. To this purpose, hDPSCs were stimulated with different LPSs for 6, 24 and 48 h and then the gene expression was evaluated using quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and western blotting. Following stimulation with P. gingivalis and E. coli‐derived LPSs, the relative mRNA and protein expression of all genes were significantly up‐regulated in a time‐dependent manner, as compared with unstimulated hDPSCs. Moreover, the hDPSCs stimulated with P. gingivalis LPS for 6 and 24 h had the highest mRNA expression of CDKN1A and SIRT1, respectively (p < 0.0001), whereas the highest mRNA expression of CDKN2A and TP53 was seen in hDPSCs stimulated with E. coli LPS for 48 h (p < 0.0001). In summary, because DPSCs have been reported to have therapeutic potential for several cell‐based therapies, targeting molecular mechanisms aiming at preventing DPSC senescence could be considered a valuable strategy.

Published: October 2022

AbstractObjectiveTo map the existing evidence regarding the masking ability of resin composites.OverviewThe literature search was conducted electronically, based on the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews—online protocol at https://osf.io/m2h67/ with no language or time restrictions. Two independent reviewers conducted the screening, and a third reviewer was consulted in case of disagreement. Studies that evaluated resin composite masking ability regardless of background, application technique, thickness, or number of layers were selected. The search found 2995 potentially eligible studies. After removal of duplicates (657), irrelevant articles (2323), 15 citations met the eligibility criteria based on title and abstract, and eight studies were included based on full text analysis (seven in vitro, and one case report). Acceptable masking ability is obtained by one layer of opaque shade resin composite or by the layering technique. A black background is masked with 1.0‐ to 2.0 mm‐thick layers of opaque shade resin composites. Masking of the C4 background is achieved with one layer of 0.5‐ to 1.5 mm‐thick opaque shade resin composite or by the layering technique using different combinations of enamel body and dentin shades with a final thickness of 1.5 mm.ConclusionsAcceptable masking of C4 shade background is achieved with one layer of opaque shade composite at least 0.5 mm‐thick or by different combinations of the layering technique, with a final thickness of 1.5 mm. Acceptable masking of the black background of the oral cavity is achieved with a resin composite of at least 1.0 mm opaque shade.Clinical SignificanceThe thickness of the resin composite layer required to achieve adequate masking is variable and depends on the translucency/opacity of the tested resin composites and the background shade.

AbstractIn recent years, thermosonication (TS) has been considered as a substitute to conventional heat treatments as it improves the quality characteristics of fruit juices. In the present research work, the impact of pasteurization (90 ± 2°C for 1 min) and TS on the quality of tangor fruit juice was examined and findings of the work were compared with freshly prepared juice. The quality characteristics, such as bioactive compounds, microbial counts and physicochemical properties were checked for all samples. After TS, the levels of total phenolic content (TPC) (683.25–747.84 μg gallic acid equivalents [GAE0/ml]), total flavonoid content (TFC) (61.76–71.51 μg quercetin equivalents [QE]/ml) and anti‐oxidant activity (AOA) (73.27–83.63%) of tangor juices were improved as compared to fresh (TPC − 584.84 μg GAE/ml, TFC − 34.65 μg QE/ml and AOA − 49.71%) and pasteurized juices (TPC – 471.74 μg GAE/ml, TFC – 26.64 μg QE/ml and AOA – 38.19%). But, a slight decrement in ascorbic acid content was perceived in thermosonicated juices (24.48–27.26 mg/100 ml) as compared to fresh tangor juice (45.55 mg/100 ml) but higher than pasteurized juice (22.55 mg/100 ml). TS also reduced the microbial populations in tangor juices with minor changes in the physicochemical properties as compared to fresh juices. Therefore, TS may be used effectively for the treatment of tangor juices to produce a product with better levels of bioactive compounds.Practical ApplicationsThermosonication is one among the emergent techniques for the processing fruit juice to enhance the shelf‐life without adversely affecting its quality. Although, pasteurization has been exercised for the processing of juices, but it has detrimental effect on nutritional and sensorial properties of juices. In the current study, the impact of pasteurization and thermosonication on the quality of tangor juices was evaluated. From the study, it can be proposed that thermosonication can be applied as an alternative method to pasteurization for enhancing the quality of tangor juices.

AbstractBackgroundOlder patients with poor prognosis cancers have complex needs that can benefit from geriatrics and palliative care principles. Because they are not routinely assessed, the prevalence of preexisting geriatric and palliative conditions in this population is unknown.MethodsWe used the nationally representative Health and Retirement Study (HRS) linked with Medicare claims (1998–2016) to identify adults aged ≥65 years diagnosed with poor prognosis cancers (cancers with a median survival ≤1 year). Using the HRS interview before the first Medicare cancer claim, we used survey‐weighted descriptive statistics and modified Poisson regression analysis to examine the prevalence of the following clinically significant conditions: functional impairment, difficulty with mobility, falls and injurious falls, social support, cognition, advance care planning, use of pain or sleep medications, and presence of pain or breathlessness.ResultsOf 2105 participants (mean age 76, 53% women, 34% lung cancer, 21% gastrointestinal cancer), the median survival was 9.6 months. Approximately 65% had difficulty climbing stairs (95% CI 63%–67%), 49% had no advance directive (95% CI 45%–54%), 35% lived alone (95% CI 33%–37%), 36% fell in the last 2 years (95% CI 34%–38%), and 32% rated their memory as poor (95% CI 29%–34%). After adjusting for gender, cancer type, and HRS survey time before the first Medicare claim for a poor prognosis cancer, functional impairment and falls were highest among adults aged 85+. Adults aged 65–74 years were less likely to have an advance directive. After adjusting for age, cancer type, and HRS survey time, women had a higher rate of pain and physical impairment. In exploratory analyses, race and socioeconomic status predicted difficulty with mobility and instrumental activities of daily living, living alone, and advance directive completion.ConclusionsDue to a high prevalence across multiple domains, all older adults with poor prognosis cancers should be assessed for geriatric and palliative care conditions.

AbstractBackgroundThe present study aimed to verify the proportion and factors associated with hospital‐acquired malnutrition in the paediatric unit of a tertiary care hospital.MethodsA retrospective study was carried out in a tertiary care hospital in the state of Maranhão, Brazil. Demographic and clinical data on children and adolescents were collected from medical records and the data regarding weight, height and z‐scores of anthropometric indicators were obtained from the World Health Organization (WHO) Anthro® and WHO Anthro Plus® applications. Those with weight‐for‐height z‐score (< 5 years) and a body mass index (BMI)/age z‐score (≥ 5 years) < −2 SD at admission were considered to be malnourished. Patients who presented a decrease of > 0.25 SD between the z‐score of BMI‐for‐age (BMIZ) at admission and at discharge were classified as having hospital‐acquired malnutrition. Weight loss was also evaluated and was considered significant when it was > 2% between the weight measured at admission and the one before discharge. Logistic regression analysis was performed to verify the factors associated with hospital‐acquired malnutrition.ResultsThe median age was 4.7 years and the length of stay was 21 days; 26.8% of patients had significant weight loss during hospitalisation and a greater proportion had hospital‐acquired malnutrition (34.9%). Gastroenteropathies, neuropathies and malnutrition on admission were significantly associated with hospital‐acquired malnutrition.ConclusionsThe occurrence of hospital‐acquired malnutrition is still a problem in paediatric patients. Thus, providing adequate nutritional support from admission is essential when aiming to avoid deterioration of the nutritional status of paediatric patients during hospitalisation.
