Sustainable perspective of ancillary construction materials in infrastructure industry: An overview

Climate Change is the hot topic in world scenarios and UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change), a convention of the United Nations enables sustainable resource utilization. Disposing of industrial and agricultural wastes into air, water and land poses a great threat to mankind and the environment. Effective utilization of waste including hazardous nature can be subsumed pragmatically by the construction industry. Substituting agro-industrial waste materials into the construction process will conserve dwindling resources and lead to a step towards sustainability. The present study introduces a new dimension to construction materials by classifying them into exhaustive and mutually exclusive categories of major and ancillary construction materials. Major construction materials are building blocks of civil engineering whereas ancillary construction materials add value to the construction. Over the past decades, researchers have successfully applied sustainability concepts for the major construction materials. Ancillary construction materials shall be conceivably characterized as supplementary, commercial and expensive. They are less studied and lack research status at par with major construction materials. Bibliometric analysis helps to identify and understand ancillary construction materials' wide research gap over major construction materials. The article is aimed to showcase the differentiation in construction materials by intensive bibliometric analysis of construction materials and available traditional literature review of ancillary construction materials. Therefore, more collaboration of civil engineering researchers with other fields shall improve the research impetus in the field of ancillary construction materials. This multi-disciplinary approach shall be satisfactorily applied for addressing global concerns like climate change and industrial sustainability, which shall pervade the infrastructure industry. This review stresses the need for a shift in research ideology for comprehensive waste utilization in ancillary construction materials in line with major construction materials towards achieving resilient sustainable construction and the environment as a whole.

MEASUREMENT OF PORT CITIES – A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW APPROACH

A port city is a city that engages in port and maritime activities and also develops land and maritime economic activities. However, the concept or the tools to measure whether a seaport has achieved the criteria of port-city is still lacking. This paper aims to identify the port city measurement and to propose a novel framework for extending port city development as a tool to improve the maritime tourism sector. This paper adopted a traditional systematic literature review (SLR) with content analysis to code the outcome. The final results indicate that only seven articles validated outcomes from the Scopus database. Based on the global view outcome, there are only six main clusters and 27 sub-factors influencing the development of port cities. The six main clusters were: port characteristics; the awareness of maritime stakeholders, port intensity, vessel characteristics, information technology, and the government’s role. The new strategies could lead to a digitalization of decision-making methods in smart maritime tourism in port city development.

High anxiety levels of 19 people (63%) and 11 people (37%) had moderate levels of anxiety. Implication: It is hoped that it can be a reference to the husband that the importance of the husband's role in reducing the anxiety of pregnant women in childbirth. It is recommended to the husband to provide support and support to the mother in order to reduce the anxiety of the third trimester pregnant woman so that the delivery that will be faced can run well

The fate of accounting for public governance development

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to explain how public sector accounting has changed and is changing due to public governance development.Design/methodology/approachThis paper conducts a traditional literature review based on selected studies in the fields of accounting, public administration and management. The aim of the review is to explain how diverse forms of public governance influence the fate of public sector accounting, including accountability, performance measurement, budgeting and reporting practices.FindingsPublic governance is developing into more inclusive but also complex forms, resulting in network, collaborative and digital governance. Consequently, the focus and practices of public sector accounting have changed, as reflected in new types of accountability, performance measurement, budgeting and reporting practices.Research limitations/implicationsDrawing upon literature from different fields enables a deeper understanding of the changes in public sector accounting. Nevertheless, the intention is not to execute a systematic literature review but to provide an overview and resolve the scattered body of knowledge generated by previous contributions. The areas of risk management and auditing were not included and deserve further attention.Originality/valueThis paper discusses the need to continually redefine and reassess public sector accounting practices, by recognising the interdependencies between different actors, citizens and digital technologies.

Risk for intellectual disability populations in inpatient forensic settings in the United Kingdom: A literature review.

People with an intellectual disability who commit a criminal offence can be detained, by a court, in a forensic inpatient facility. There is limited understanding of how inpatients with an intellectual disability and their nurses navigate risk in U.K. forensic services. A traditional literature review design was followed to map evidence (2000-2021) around the forensic and health and wellbeing risks faced by inpatients with an intellectual disability, nurses' perceptions of managing risk, and patient experiences of informing risk assessment and management. Papers were analysed thematically. Findings suggest that restrictive measures to mitigate forensic risks (e.g., violence) can exacerbate the risk of poor health and wellbeing outcomes. There was some limited evidence of direct patient involvement in risk assessment and management. Further research is required to explore how forensic inpatients with an intellectual disability can have input in care planning, risk assessment and management.

SOSYAL BİLİMLERDE SİSTEMATİK LİTERATÜR ANALİZİ

While research activities in the field of social sciences are increasing, it results in independent studies focusing on the same subject but differing in terms of time, space, and actors of the subject of study, methods used, theoretical frameworks, research questions to be answered and results. This versatility and diversity, on the other hand, makes it difficult to identify and interpret the state of the art of scientific information, and critical findings and conclusions on a particular subject, what questions are yet to be answered, and how the field can be moved forward. For these purposes, while the traditional literature review method can guide researchers, it also brings some disadvantages. Systematic literature analysis, on the other hand, is frequently used as a method -especially in health sciences- that goes beyond traditional literature analysis. The aim of this article is to explain the purposes, features, and stages of the systematic literature review method for social sciences and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of it. In the article, first of all, information will be given about the aspects of the systematic literature review method that differs from the traditional literature review. Next, each of the stages that the systematic literature analysis includes will be explained in detail, along with a discussion of the advantages and limitations of the methodology.

Principles and Practices of Strategy for Effective and Efficient Performance of Business Organisations

Every organisation that strives for constructive results should first consider coming up with a strategy to help select the best and more efficient way to maintain the profitability and competitiveness. Many researchers have come up with various approaches in an attempt to explain how strategy can be applied in different sectors. Undoubtedly, a good strategy always stems from a thorough analysis of the organization’s position in the market and that’s where its strength and weaknesses, together with the opportunities and threats are incorporated. Further, a strategy without goals is nothing, setting goals is vital because they determine the future direction of a company. Therefore, this paper is aimed at discussing on strategy using narrative review of the literature as a methodology in an effort to understand and appreciate how strategy can be of help in an organisation. This methodology of study was chosen due to the fact that knowledge production in the field of business research is accelerating at a tremendous rate, while remaining fragmented and interdisciplinary. Consequently, literature studies as a research method are more relevant than ever. Traditional literature reviews often lack thoroughness and consistency and are conducted ad hoc rather than following specific methodologies. It further explores different strategies that can be used to foster better performance in an organisation. Different sources were utilized to review the literature which included; google scholar, pdf drive, JSTOR among others.

Variety of Possible Selves: The Role of Agency and Empirical Evidence Review

The development of possible selves theory has led to the introduction of new types of the construct. However, the types are inconsistent with the original definition by Markus & Nurius (1986). Researchers tend not to consider the phenomenon of agency playing a crucial role in the motivational function of possible self. Thus, now in the literature, we have non-systemized concepts of various types of possible self. The primary aim of this paper is to analyze existing types of possible selves through the lens of agentic energy, and to unify the understanding of the construct. We consider the most frequent types of possible self, such as hoped-for possible self, feared possible self, best possible self, self-regulatory and self-enhancing possible selves, lost possible self, shared possible self, and impossible self. Creating the systematic view is essential for the future of the theory as there are already some misconceptions that come from a liberal interpretation of the originally strong construct. We propose a solution in the form of a traditional literature review with the result of definitions reconsidered depending on the role of agentic energy in possible self producing. We conclude that taking into account the agentic potential reveals the processes behind the various types of possible selves. The expected outcome of the framework is to set a unified direction for further discoveries.

A Literature Analysis of Consumer Privacy Protection in Augmented Reality Applications in Creative and Cultural Industries: A Text Mining Study

Digital reality technologies (such as AR, VR, and MR) have recently become a key component of promoting creative and cultural industries (CCIs) worldwide to transform static cultural heritage exhibits into more engaging, entertaining, and immersive experiences. These technologies present an exciting example of studying how consumers would respond to the potential invasion of privacy due to these technologies. This literature review study mainly focuses on one essential branch of CCIs: museums and their applications of digital reality technologies. Because many of these location-based AR applications by museums are inherently sensitive to users’ locational information, there is also a rising concern of the potential infringement of personal privacy (RQ1). A thorough examination of existing literature on how consumers respond to privacy concerns related to the museum’s AR applications will help uncover how scholars have approached and studied these crucial issues in the literature (RQ2). Unlike traditional literature review analyses, we employed a text mining of retrieved 715 studies articles from Business Source Complete and Engineering Village (E.I.) databases to answer our two research questions. Our study found that privacy and user(s) /visitor(s) has dramatically increased since 2017, echoing the rising concerns of other privacy-invasive technologies. Most notably, key phrases extracted from the literature corpus include “security and privacy,” “privacy and security,” “privacy risks,” “privacy concerns,” “privacy issues,” “user privacy,” “location privacy,” “privacy protection,” and “privacy preserving” that are most pertinent to the rapid implementation of AR technology in the museum sector. Discussions and implications are provided.

Progresses and Perspectives of the Resource Evaluation Related to Agri-Cultural Heritage Tourism

The scientific evaluation of tourism resources is not only an important prerequisite for the development of agri-cultural heritage tourism (AHT), but it can also promote the conservation and management of Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (IAHS). With the goal of providing scientific support for the sustainable management of tourism resources, this review systematically analyzes the overall situation, research regions, developmental timeline trends, key fields and hot topics of resource evaluation research related to AHT over 2005–2020. With a comprehensive perspective that incorporates both traditional literature review and quantitative literature review, the study revealed four important aspects of AHT research. (1) Relevant articles could be divided into two phases, a development-oriented period (2005–2012) and a conservation-oriented period (2013–2020). (2) GIAHS accounts for the absolute majority (about 66.7%) of relevant studies. In particular, Longji Terraces System, Hani terraces system and Dong's Rice-Fish-Duck System were the research hotspots IAHS, and Yunnan, Zhejiang and Guangxi were the research hotspot provinces. (3) Terraced landscapes and tea culture were the most popular themes in tourism resource evaluation, while sports tourism, tea culture tourism and study tours are becoming the new trends in IAHS sites. (4) Research methods have undergone a shift from qualitative to quantitative approaches, and a combination of these two in an interdisciplinary manner is becoming a new research trend. By reviewing and prospecting the relevant literature, this study not only makes a unique contribution to the tourism resource evaluation of IAHS, but also helps to enrich the relevant evaluation theories and further promote the sustainable development of heritage tourism from theoretical and methodological perspectives.

Literature Review: The Relationship of Anxiety Towards The Production of Breast Milk in Postpartum Mothers

The postpartum period is a vulnerable period for postpartum mothers because there are several physiological and psychological changes after giving birth. Otherwise, the process of lactation and milk production is influenced by hormones. Postpartum mothers usually feel tired and experience psychological disorders such as anxiety about their condition and the condition of their baby. This study aims to determine the conditions that interfere with the production of breast milk in postpartum mothers. This study uses traditional literature review research methods, analyzes articles that match the inclusion criteria, and focuses on the relationship between anxiety and increased breastfeeding in postpartum mothers. Based on the results of this study, this literature review used 10 journals with inclusion criteria, eight journals showed a significant relationship between anxiety and breastfeeding in postpartum mothers. There was a decrease in oxytocin levels and duration of breastfeeding which had an impact on the rate of exclusive breastfeeding. In contrast, the other two journals did not find a significant relationship between anxiety and oxytocin levels with the breastfeeding method used. Because there are variables that are not examined.

The Hot Topics, Frontiers and Trends about Research on the Relationship between Air Pollution and Public Health—Visual Analysis Based on Knowledge Map

It is of great practical significance to analyze the hot issues, research frontiers, and trends concerning the relationship between air pollution and public health and to adopt reasonable strategies to control air pollution and prevent health hazards for follow-up research in this field. Unlike traditional literature reviews, this paper adopts a visual, flexible, and scientifically systematic approach to the analysis, which makes these analysis results more intuitive and comprehensive. Based on the core collection of the Web of Science and CNKI databases, this paper uses CiteSpace software to draw and comment on the maps of Chinese and English keywords, publishing time, author, country, and research institutions in this field. The results show the following: (1) The number of studies on the relationship between air pollution and health has increased year by year; researchers have formed sub cooperation networks, and the trend of cooperation and exchange has become more and more obvious in recent years; the impact of air pollution on health is a hot topic in the world. (2) Research hot topics mainly focus on the selection of air pollutants, health economic consequences of air pollution and the global burden of disease it causes, health indicators, research samples, which are gradually being refined, the synergistic governance of air pollution, and climate change. (3) The analysis of research frontiers and trends reveals that, first, the study of air pollutants in the English literature has undergone a refinement from nitrogen dioxide to fine particulate matter, and the sources of air pollutants in the Chinese literature have undergone changes in the petrochemical industry, indoor formaldehyde pollution, and haze. Second, atmospheric pollution has a significant negative impact on health, increasing the incidence of respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, and even causing death. Third, sustained exposure to pollution then causes greater damage to health and will be a key direction for future research. Fourth, the literature not only studies the correlation but also emphasizes the causal inference between air pollution and health and measures the economic costs associated with health. Finally, air pollution and climate change need to be governed synergistically. The article points out that the three areas of sustained pollution exposure, indirect consequences of negative health effects of air pollution, and air pollution and climate change may be the future focus of the field.

EVOLUTION OF HOT STAMPING TECHNOLOGY: A BIBLIOMETRIC REVIEW

Today's huge automotive industry requires continuous innovations. In this sense, numerous publications on new materials or developments which can provide new weight reductions or safety improvements are released every day. An important example is hot stamping, which has been gaining popularity in the last years due to its advantages for the sector. Considering the strong influence of the automotive sector in world economies, we have focused our attention on the literature concerning not only hot stamping itself but also on several other technologies which are related to the same transformation procedure, to have a complete photograph of the evolution of the technology itself. We contribute with a systematic literature review process, enriched by a bibliometric review. The use of both contributes in a neutral, reliable manner, reducing the possible bias of traditional literature reviews, which have been previously employed in this specific discipline. We have resorted to the Web of Science to execute a query related to all the possible procedures that involve hot stamping technology, which correspond with 573 English peer reviewed publications from journals indexed in this database. The results clarify that hot stamping is a key issue in metallurgy publications with significant future prospects due to its manufacturing implications.

An intelligent literature review: adopting inductive approach to define machine learning applications in the clinical domain

Big data analytics utilizes different techniques to transform large volumes of big datasets. The analytics techniques utilize various computational methods such as Machine Learning (ML) for converting raw data into valuable insights. The ML assists individuals in performing work activities intelligently, which empowers decision-makers. Since academics and industry practitioners have growing interests in ML, various existing review studies have explored different applications of ML for enhancing knowledge about specific problem domains. However, in most of the cases existing studies suffer from the limitations of employing a holistic, automated approach. While several researchers developed various techniques to automate the systematic literature review process, they also seemed to lack transparency and guidance for future researchers. This research aims to promote the utilization of intelligent literature reviews for researchers by introducing a step-by-step automated framework. We offer an intelligent literature review to obtain in-depth analytical insight of ML applications in the clinical domain to (a) develop the intelligent literature framework using traditional literature and Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modeling, (b) analyze research documents using traditional systematic literature review revealing ML applications, and (c) identify topics from documents using LDA topic modeling. We used a PRISMA framework for the review to harness samples sourced from four major databases (e.g., IEEE, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar) published between 2016 and 2021 (September). The framework comprises two stages—(a) traditional systematic literature review consisting of three stages (planning, conducting, and reporting) and (b) LDA topic modeling that consists of three steps (pre-processing, topic modeling, and post-processing). The intelligent literature review framework transparently and reliably reviewed 305 sample documents.

Identifying Active Substances and the Pharmacological Mechanism of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. in Treating Radiation-Induced Lung Injury Based on Network Pharmacology and Molecular Docking Verification

Background Houttuynia cordata Thunb. is a traditional Chinese herb widely used mainly because of the pharmacological effects related to heat clearance and detoxification. Emerging clinical evidence indicates that the efficacy of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. on RILI is upstanding. Nevertheless, its underlying therapeutic mechanism remains unclear and warrants further elucidation. Methods The major active components and corresponding targets of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. were retrieved from the traditional Chinese medicine system pharmacology database (TCMSP) and literature review. The related targets of RILI were retrieved from the GeneCards database. Common targets among the active compounds and diseases were identified through Venn diagram analysis. Cytoscape was employed to construct and visualize the network relationship among the drug, active compounds, targets, and disease. The protein interaction network (PPI) was constructed by STRING. The reliability (the binding affinity) of the core targets and active compounds was verified by molecular docking. Results A search of the TCMSP database and related literature revealed 12 active compounds of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. against RILI. The core active compounds included quercetin, kaempferol, hyperoside, and rutin. Hub nodes including TP53, VEGFA, JUN, TNF, and IL-6 were identified in the PPI network. The GO categories were classified into three functional categories: 112 biological processes, 9 molecular functions, and 32 cellular components of the active compounds of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. The KEGG pathway enrichment analysis demonstrated the enrichment of target genes in several key cancer-related signaling pathways, including the cancer pathways, TNF signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, and HIF-1 signaling pathway. Molecular docking analysis validated the effective binding capacity of the main active compounds with the core targets. Conclusion The main active components of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. have a potential pharmacological effect against RILI via the cancer pathways, TNF signaling pathway, and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.

Meta‐analysis and traditional systematic literature reviews—What, why, when, where, and how?

AbstractMeta‐analysis is a research method for systematically combining and synthesizing findings from multiple quantitative studies in a research domain. Despite its importance, most literature evaluating meta‐analyses are based on data analysis and statistical discussions. This paper takes a holistic view, comparing meta‐analyses to traditional systematic literature reviews. We described steps of the meta‐analytic process including question definition, data collection, data analysis, and reporting results. For each step, we explain the primary purpose, the tasks required of the meta‐analyst, and recommendations for best practice. Finally, we discuss recent developments in meta‐analytic techniques, which increase its effectiveness in business research.
