This article from the editors of the "Academy of Management Review" states that a rejection of a theory-only paper doesn't imply that the effort was in vain, as the content can be repurposed into other publication formats including literature reviews, structured theory articles, inductive and abductive studies, or deductive and hypothesis-testing research. These alternative formats address common challenges faced by theory paper authors, potentially increasing the impact and preserving core ideas of the original work. Authors are encouraged to utilize developmental feedback and resources to improve their manuscripts and explore different formats to advance their theoretical contributions, whether their initial submissions are successful or not.

Background: Nepal established the health partner coordination for COVID-19 response based on national and international plans and framework to support information-sharing for decision- making and course correction. This paper aims to assess the performance of COVID-19 Health Partner Coordination response in Nepal by adopting coordination best practices and tools from the international humanitarian cluster system. Methods: Secondary data from unpublished documents on health partner coordination for COVID-19 response in Nepal was collected and analysed from April 2023 to May 2023. The secondary data were from the review of the health partner coordination meetings conducted for COVID-19 response using a researcher-developed document review tool, responses of health partners on a survey tool adapted from the cluster coordination performance monitoring tool from the Global Health Cluster, and transcript of Focused Group Discussion among health partners. Descriptive analysis of quantitative information and thematic analysis with predefined themes of qualitative information were performed using MS Excel and MS Word respectively. A written approval from the Ministry of Health and Population and an ethical clearance from the Nepal Health Research Council was obtained before conducting the study. Results: More than three-fifths of the meetings showed good results in conduction, process, participation, and documentation of meeting action points with improvement required for follow-up (22.2%). Assessment of health partner coordination subfunctions resulted in either 'good' (>75.0%) or 'satisfactory' (50.1%-75.0%) except for prioritization based on analyses, which was 'unsatisfactory' (<50%). Partners admired good practices of health partner coordination, pointed out some issues, and provided recommendations. Conclusion: COVID-19 has highlighted the importance of effective coordination of health sector for response to a pandemic. Continuation of this practice after addressing the areas for improvement will contribute to health preparedness and readiness for future disasters or public health emergencies.

The Richardson-Richards equation (RRE), despite known shortcomings especially in regard to preferential flow, provides the basis for the vast majority of unsaturated flow models in use today. L.F. Richardson published this equation in 1922, nine years before L.A. Richards. Whereas Richards approached this problem directly from the groundbreaking developments of Edgar Buckingham, Richardson, surprisingly, cited as his starting point only the earlier work of L.J. Briggs. Collectively, these four scientists’ published and unpublished work reveals that: (1) Briggs’ work, though qualitative, captured the essential physical principles needed for quantifying unsaturated flow; (2) Buckingham came very close to deriving the RRE and explained why he stopped short of doing so; (3) derivation of the RRE from the work of either Briggs or Buckingham required only modest developmental work; and (4) besides deriving the RRE, Richards carried through much of the experimental agenda that Buckingham considered a necessary precursor to mathematical treatment.

The book "Heidegger and Psychiatry" is a monograph that examines the influence of Heidegger on psychiatry. It is divided into two parts: a documentary part, which includes unpublished correspondence between Heidegger and Dr. Biswanger, and a series of research papers written by different specialists. The first part highlights the figure of Ludwig Biswanger, a psychiatrist influenced by Husserl's phenomenology and Heidegger's work. The second part explores interpretations of Heidegger and psychiatry, focusing on his influence on psychotherapy. The book presents contributions on the influence of Heidegger's philosophy on psychiatry, addressing topics such as affectivity, emotional trauma, temporal and historical dynamism, and the development of corporeality. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance of publishing unpublished works and being open to new interpretations and research in the field of psychiatry. This book represents an opportunity to explore the philosophy of psychiatry by other philosophers in the future. [Extracted from the article]

This article presents the work on the personal documentary collection of the architect José Vial Armstrong (1926-1983), part of the founding group of the School of Architecture of Valparaíso. This was based on identifying, reviewing, organizing, and classifying almost a thousand unpublished theoretical documents, providing new insights into his individual work and role within the group. Considering the proposal to revisit the sources of modern architecture, according to Panayotis Tournikiotis (2014), this article aims to demonstrate how the study of Vial’s documentary collection would make the author visible in the historiography of modern architecture in Chile, as well as to understand the role of the architect within the School to which he belonged, and, therefore, to review new information about this institution.

Background: This protocol outlines a scoping review with the objective of identifying and exploring planetary health considerations within existing health guidelines and health technology assessments (HTA). The insights gained from this review will serve as a basis for shaping future Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations (GRADE) guidance on planetary health. Methods: We will adhere to the JBI methodology for scoping reviews. We will conduct a comprehensive search and screening of results in all languages across various databases including MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Global Health, Health Systems Evidence, Greenfile, and Environmental Issues. Additionally, we will supplement this search with resources such as the GIN library, BIGG database, Epistemonikos, GRADE guidelines repository, GRADEpro Guideline Development Tool Database, MAGICapp, NICE website, WHO websites, and a manual exploration of unpublished relevant documents using Google incognito mode. Two independent reviewers will screen and assess the full texts of identified documents according to the eligibility criteria. The following information from each full text will be extracted: document title; first author's name; publication year; language; document type; document as a guideline or HTA; the topic/discipline; document purpose/study objective; developing/sponsoring organization; the country in which the study/guideline/HTA report was conducted; definition of planetary health or related concept provided; types of planetary health experts engaged; study methods; suggested methods to assess planetary health; use of secondary data on planetary health outcomes; description for use of life cycle assessment; description for assessing the quality of life cycle; population/intended audience; interventions; category; applicable planetary health boundaries; consideration of social justice/global equity; phase of intervention in life cycle related to planetary health addressed; the measure of planetary health impact; impact on biodiversity/land use; one health/animal welfare mention; funding; and conflict of interest. Data analysis will involve a combination of descriptive statistics and directed content analysis, with results presented in a narrative format and displayed in tables and graphs. Discussion: The final review results will be submitted to open-access peer-reviewed journals for publication when they become available. The research findings will also be disseminated at relevant planetary health conferences and workshops. Systematic review registration: Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/3jmsa).

Background: This systematic review aims to compare the prognosis of treatment transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with sorafenib and TACE-alone in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with Barcelona clinic liver cancer-stage C (BCLC-C). Materials and methods: A systematic search was conducted on five electronic databases: PubMed, ScienceDirect, Cochrane, Embase, and Scopus. Studies were included if they compared overall survival (OS) of TACE-Sorafenib to TACE-alone in patients with HCC BCLC-C within the 2019–2023 timeframe. We excluded studies consisting of conference abstracts, letters, editorials, guidelines, case reports, animal studies, trial registries, and unpublished work. The selected articles were evaluated from August 2023 to September 2023. The journal's quality was assessed with NOS for a non-randomized controlled trial. Results: This systematic review included four studies following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (PRISMA). All four studies compared the OS of 401 patients with TACE-sorafenib to TACE-alone. Two studies compared time-to-progression (TTP), one study compared progression-free survival (PFS), and two studies compared disease control rate (DCR). There were various population criteria, TACE techniques used, risk factors, follow-up time, and adverse events. The collected evidence generally suggested that the combination of TACE-sorafenib is superior compared to TACE-alone. Due to a lack of essential data for the included study, a meta-analysis couldn't be performed. Conclusion: The results of this systematic review suggested that TACE-sorafenib combination therapy in patients with HCC BCLC-C improves OS superior compared to TACE-alone, without a notable increase in adverse events.

Background: The transition from childhood to adolescence is associated with an increase in rates of some psychiatric disorders, including major depressive disorder, a debilitating mood disorder. The aim of this systematic review is to update the evidence on the benefits and harms of screening for depression in primary care and non-mental health clinic settings among children and adolescents. Methods: This review is an update of a previous systematic review, for which the last search was conducted in 2017. We searched Ovid MEDLINE® ALL, Embase Classic+Embase, PsycINFO, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and CINAHL on November 4, 2019, and updated on February 19, 2021. If no randomized controlled trials were found, we planned to conduct an additional search for non-randomized trials with a comparator group. For non-randomized trials, we applied a non-randomized controlled trial filter and searched the same databases except for Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials from January 2015 to February 2021. We also conducted a targeted search of the gray literature for unpublished documents. Title and abstract, and full-text screening were completed independently by pairs of reviewers. Results: In this review update, we were unable to find any randomized controlled studies that satisfied our eligibility criteria and evaluated the potential benefits and harms of screening for depression in children and adolescents. Additionally, a search for non-randomized trials yielded no studies that met the inclusion criteria. Conclusions: The findings of this review indicate a lack of available evidence regarding the potential benefits and harms of screening for depression in children and adolescents. This absence of evidence emphasizes the necessity for well-conducted clinical trials to evaluate the effectiveness of depression screening among children and adolescents in primary care and non-mental health clinic settings. Systematic review registration: PROSPERO CRD42020150373. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper discusses historical sources that testify to Aeneas Silvius Piccolomini's contacts with present Slovenian territory. He already became well acquainted with the area in his role as secretary to Emperor Frederick III, then especially as Bishop of Trieste in 1447-1450, and finally as Pope Pius II, who confirmed the establishment of the Ljubljana diocese in 1463. The research focuses mainly on the period of his episcopacy in Trieste and investigates several new, hitherto unpublished documents (letters, documents) from this period. These shed new lights on his pastoral activity and question some of the long-accepted narratives of Slovenian historiography. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article presents an interview with the writer Albalucía Ángel, in which she talks about her presence at the Bogotá Book Fair and the reception of her work in the Colombian literary world. Despite institutional resistance, her work continues to be recognized and circulates in a limited way. Her relationship with Marta Traba and other people who were part of her personal and professional network is also mentioned. In addition, Albalucía's experience in the publication of her novels "Dos veces Alicia" and "La pájara pinta" is narrated, as well as her participation in events and interviews in different places. Although her most recent work remains unpublished, she has received recognition and tributes in Colombia. [Extracted from the article]

Like many Hispanic cities, the origin of Belchite has so far been approached from an exclusively documentary perspective, which in our case dates, uncertainly, between the 8th and 9th centuries, the settlement of a Berber group next to the old Roman canals. from the Almonacid dam. Our archaeological interventions in 2022 and 2023, through the study of surface material, a survey in Plaza del Salvador, and the analysis of unpublished materials, lead us to propose new lines of work, such as the Hispano-Roman origin of the town, the peripheral location of the Salvador neighborhood in the Medieval Belchite, and the confirmation of the establishment of San Roque as a Mudéjar neighborhood. The identification of two structures of great interest for the urban debate is also provided, such as the location of the castle and the main synagogue of the city. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The teachers of the Movimiento Cooperativo de Escuela Popular (MCEP) used cooperation to achieve a pedagogical renewal of the school that, over the time, would lead to a transformation of society. Consequently, the cooperation was present in the daily life of the MCEP and was applied transversally. Thus, the MCEP was structured cooperatively, organized frequent coordination meetings, held annual conferences and other events, and worked hand in hand with other Movimientos de Renovación Pedagógica (MRPs), the community, neighborhood associations, and related groups, organizations, and social movements interested in the popular school project. At times, the MCEP also collaborated with the Administration. More intimate or more heterogeneous, the cooperation spaces stimulated the political participation of the MCEP and, in general, made it possible to build an emancipatory school and outline revolutionary alternatives that gave rise to a different school and society. This article dialogues with the different scenarios of cooperation in which the MCEP participated during the period 1970-1990 and proposes two things: (1) delve into the idea of cooperation that the MCEP managed and analyze the impact it had on the popular school project; and (2) identify the political debates that arose within the MCEP regarding the educational reforms, as well as list the different alternatives that were formulated to respond to specific questions related to the educational reforms. The main bibliographical source has been the bulletin Colaboración. Likewise, other original and unpublished materials from the MCEP internal archive have been consulted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In Venezuela, Antillean manatees (Trichechus manatus manatus) have declined mainly due to habitat loss and degradation, but other threats to the species persist. The objective of this work was to investigate the manatee distribution and conservation issues in Maracaibo Lake, Venezuela. Aiming to collect evidence on manatee presence, we conducted 404.14 hours of boat-based surveys and observations from the shore during 2003, 2004, 2009, and 2010. Environmental parameters were collected in areas where manatees were observed including pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, salinity, transparency, and depth. Also, we recorded plants or algae that could serve as potential food for manatees. We developed 96 informal and opportunistic talks with local fishermen, to gather information about manatee occurrence, boat traffic, and people’s perception of the species. Finally, we reviewed published and unpublished documents containing information on manatees in Maracaibo Lake. The resulting database contains information on 39 sightings and 13 reports of dead manatees. The known causes of death were poaching, vandalism, boat collision, and entanglement in fishing nets. The Maracaibo Lake offers many suitable habitats for manatees, but also faces a wide array of conservation problems that represent critical threats to this endangered subspecies. Long-term monitoring of this population and potential sources of mortality is highly needed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The First World War was a period marked by significant destruction, casualties, and crises in many spheres of public life. During this conflict, the phenomenon of population evacuation by states in the war-torn regions became widespread. The Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, which included the territory of Eastern Galicia in 1914, was no exception. During that time, Lviv, one of the most important cities in Eastern Galicia, became a key location where AustriaHungary transported emigrants. Some emigrants were left in the city, while others were transported to other settlements in the region. The authorities were not always able to fully care for the evacuees, leading to the necessity for charitable organizations such as the «Ukrainian Country Committee for Aid to Emigrants in Lviv». Under the influence of this Committee, the «Supporting Station at the Railway Station in Lviv» was founded. The article examines the sociopolitical and economic preconditions and reasons for the emergence of this organization, revealing the peculiarities of its functioning and management. It was demonstrated that the station cooperated with the police, the railway administration, and the press. The urgency of the scientific problem arises from the need to study and analyze the experience of the organization in Eastern Galicia in helping evacuated Ukrainians. The scientific novelty of the article lies in its attempt to conduct a holistic study of this issue for the first time within the specified period. The purpose of the study is to analyze the activities of this organization and to determine its role in the social life of the region. The principles of historicism and objectivity, along with methods of analysis and synthesis, induction, and deduction, were used in the study. It was found that during the specified period, the «Supporting Station at the Railway Station in Lviv» played an important role in assisting Ukrainian emigrants during their stay in Lviv. Despite a number of existing problems, the organization managed to achieve qualitative changes in improving the situation of evacuees. The author introduced previously unpublished archival materials into scientific circulation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper focuses on the concept of man in the thought of Pietro Galatino in the light of two unpublished works contained in the manuscript Vat. lat. 5577. The works place the thinker within the lively debates that raged in the Renaissance. The concepts of soul and microcosm are the cornerstones around which the idea of the centrality of man in the cosmos is illustrated. A careful analysis of the works allows us to obtain a new, broader and more complex vision of Galatino's philosophy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this work we will reconstruct, through unpublished documents preserved in the historical archive of the Accademia dei Lincei, a part of Giuseppe Schirò's life, precisely the period between 1939 and 1944. In these years he worked as secretary of the Centro di Studi per l'Albania, organ of the Reale Accademia d'Italia, and here he had the important task of coordinating and maintaining contacts with Albanian, Arbëreshë and Italian scholars who dealt with Albanian issues and who, without his contribution, would hardly have been able to build that which until then, and for a long time to follow, was the greatest cultural collaboration between Italy and Albania in all fields of knowledge.

Suzanne Davit (Paris, 1897-Barcelona, 1973) is little known and studied, despite the relevancy of her legacy to the Catalan botanical illustration of the early and mid-20th century. Great botanists such as Pius Font i Quer greatly valued her unique way of capturing nature. As a woman and an artist who was passionate about nature and who was also scientifically very curious, her representation of plants was different from the typical work of the time. Her innovations are interpreted as an alternative artistic discourse to the dominant patriarchal dialogue and a manifestation of the female touch. Access to unpublished documents - Davit's correspondence with a friend - has made it possible to reconstruct some of the key aspects of her work, involving the crossroads between the aesthetic exaltation of flowers and a gender perspective.

This research employs Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) to delve into the historical interactions between Spain and the Arab-Islamic world during Franco's regime, with a focus on the 1937 pilgrimage to Mecca. This initiative exemplifies the use of cultural and religious diplomacy to enhance bilateral relations, revealing efforts to portray Spain as respectful of Islamic practices. By examining unpublished documents, including Francisco Limiñana’s detailed planning of the pilgrimage, the study highlights the complexity of colonial and post-colonial relationships, blending cooperation and power dynamics. The analysis underscores the intertwining of Spain’s internal policies with its external posture, aiming to bolster national identity and Franco’s legitimacy. The findings challenge oversimplified narratives, offering a nuanced view of Western-Arab-Islamic interactions, essential for understanding contemporary challenges and fostering intercultural dialogue. Significantly, Limiñana's role transitioned from organizing the pilgrimage to becoming Spain’s first ambassador to Saudi Arabia in 1956, illustrating the evolution of Spanish-Arab relations.

In this essay, we conduct an anthropophagic framing of Robert Cooper's insights on social systems in order to illuminate issues of epistemic justice within the realm of Organization and Management Studies (OMS). By delving into Cooper's previously unpublished works, first published in this issue of ephemera, namely 'Notes on organizational kitsch' and 'On closed and open systems', we read his work through a decolonial lens that aims at promoting epistemological justice. Anthropophagy, a conceptual practice rooted in Brazilian thought, embraces irreverent and radical hybridization as a means of deconstructing Western dominance in various fields (including academia). While Cooper's insights touch upon the notion of closed social systems or what he terms 'totalitarian kitsch', which tend to perpetuate the status quo in academic disciplines, an anthropophagic reinterpretation prompts critical questioning of how these ideas intersect with promoting epistemic justice. First, through the lens of anthropophagy, OMS becomes an open system where the concept of Otherness assumes a pivotal role, both structurally and ethically. Second, the process of reclaiming the position and role of the Other involves dismantling restrictive Western cultural elements grounded in 'fictional' or 'authoritative' foundations (kitsch) that underpin closed systems. Lastly, the ongoing practice of 'anthropophagy' involving concepts, value systems, and cultural elements, regardless of their geographical origins or other privilege markers, becomes a necessary step in maintaining openness and an anti foundational spirit. In conclusion, this reading of Cooper illuminates pathways toward the creation of non oppressive knowledge systems that nurture fresh ideas capable of addressing unprecedented and persistent challenges in novel and unforeseen ways.

This paper stems from the research for my PhD thesis to identify, survey and classify the surviving documentary sources, published and unpublished, on Irpinia and the Sannio Beneventano: almost 1600 documents, both public and private, produced in the Lombard and Norman period. More specifically, this study investigates the conservation methods adopted within the archives of religious institutions whose existence and functioning depended on their titula and munimina. While the sources are very reluctant to provide information on the archival practices adopted in major churches and monasteries, the analysis of the diplomatic-archival notes affixed to the verso of the charters nevertheless provides some additional information. Adopting an approach combining palaeography, diplomatics and archive science thus allows us to paint a less generic picture than that hitherto known. The survey and examination of the verso annotations, usually given little attention in editions of the documents, proved highly significant for the identification of historic ecclesiastical archives, for the practices of archiving and preserving the papers, as well as for the identification of specific and recurrent methods of managing and conserving the documentary heritage of the old churches and monasteries, urban or rural, which represented significant gathering and reference places for the territory under their control. For some of these foundations, moreover, the study of unpublished documents has made it possible to add new evidence to what is already historically known. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the cases wherein a previously unknown and unique mythological character (with his/her specific behavior, "personal" traits, appearance, origin, etc.) is generated by a cultural linguistic sign or a fragment of text. This research is based on the Russian cultural and linguistic tradition, mainly in its dialectal version (the language of Russian peasants). Its sources include data published in the late 19th–early 21st century in dictionaries of Russian dialects and, primarily, the unpublished field materials of the Ural Federal University Toponymic Expedition, covering data from the Russian North, the Urals, and the Volga region. According to their nature or origin, the names of characters studied in this paper derive from two types of linguistic signs: (1) Names based on usual forms of standard vocabulary that can be both proper and common nouns; the former may refer to various categories, such as toponyms (names of geographical objects), chrononyms (names of calendar dates), hagionyms (names of saints), names of icons, etc. (2) Names originating from a text, usually folkloric; these are word combinations or phrases that only act as a single unit within their "parent" text. Sometimes, but less often, these consist of one word that is of key importance in the source text. Such a phrase or word can migrate outside the "parent" text or genre, expanding their lexical combinability and changing their syntactic regime to become a name of a mythological character. It takes two sources of motivation for a new character to emerge—a linguistic (a word that seeks a new context) and a cultural one (a semiotically intense context, such as a situation associated with danger, prohibition, omens, aggression, or magical practices). The combination of these incentives is not uncommon, so the stock of mythology used for names is being constantly renewed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Extensive and redundant documentation has been found in the investigation of the colonial history of Tópaga, specifically alluding to the evangelization carried out by the Society of Jesus in the 17th century. These valuable records about the town were written by the Jesuits themselves who repeatedly quote each other constantly magnifying their work and interests, limiting the horizons and scenarios of other events. This reflective article seeks to contribute to the history of Tópaga from a perspective detached from the Jesuit grandiloquence. To achieve this objective, four ecclesiastical visits registered in the baptismal record book of this town are made known, and a paleographic work was carried out, reason why unpublished documents are being made publish. The essential elements of their content were identified to complement the causes and motives of the Jesuit settlement in the places of the landscapes of Tópaga and that are not fully indicated in their historiography.

The study of the Byzantine metaphrases of Homer's Iliad has advanced too gradually in the last century, for this reason many of these rewritings continue to be unstudied today. The aim of this article is to make a first approach to one of the unpublished byzantine metaphrases of the Homeric poem. To achieve this objective, we will analyze the first book of the metaphrase starting from the manuscripts that contain it. Furthermore, the sources and the methodology of its author will be examined, as well as the importance of this metaphrase by comparing it with other rewritings of the Homeric poem. This analysis allows to conclude, firstly, that the metaphrase called bodleiana is composed of three different versions; secondly, that the author was inspired by the Iliad's scholia as a source to make his work and, finally, that this work was used for the preparation of the later rewrites.

The events that occurred in Chile in September 1973 and the position adopted by the Chilean Christian Democrat leaders had an enormous impact on their foreign counterparts, especially on their Spanish religionist brethren. Joaquín Ruiz-Giménez, who was the highest representative of the Spanish Christian Democrats, would go so far as to question whether or not it was possible to maintain the same ideology after what happened in Chile. His position would soon unleash a series of internal tensions and discrepancies that would fracture Spanish Christian Democracy and, over time, frustrate his political aspirations during the democratization of post-Franco Spain. Through unpublished material from Ruiz-Giménez's private archives, as well as his personal diaries, a historical journey will be traced to understand how the events that occurred in Chile could have had such an influence on the Spanish Christian Democrats.

This research analyses two cases: the actions of the lawyers Pedro José Agrelo and Gregorio Tagle, who remained in political leadership in Río de la Plata, despite the crisis of central power in 1820. From opposing positions, both intervened publicly and acted as referents of their respective spaces. Through the analysis of their practices and discourses, the aim is to provide knowledge about the role of these scholars in the period in question, the functioning of the socio-political networks that supported them and the particularities of their actions in the context of the war and the crisis of institutionalism in the territory. For this purpose, the sources used are the libels and manifestos of the time, together with government documents and the unpublished memoirs of Pedro José Agrelo, preserved in the General Archive of the Argentine Nation.

Background: Because research experience is increasingly important in ranking orthopaedic residency and fellowship applicants, determining the accuracy of candidates reporting their scholarly activity is essential. However, disparate and inconsistent findings have made it difficult to draw meaningful conclusions from individual studies. Questions/purposes: In this systematic review, we asked: (1) What percentage of research publications are misrepresented among orthopaedic residency and fellowship applicants? (2) What percentage of applications contain one or more example of academic misrepresentation? (3) Is research misrepresentation associated with any individual applicant characteristics? (4) What is the publication status of articles listed by applicants as having been submitted to journals? Methods: A systematic review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines. PubMed, EBSCOhost, Medline, and Google Scholar electronic databases were searched on March 10, 2022, to identify all studies that evaluated research misrepresentation in orthopaedic residency and fellowship applications between January 1, 1995, and March 1, 2022. Articles were included if full-text articles in English were available and the study reported on research misrepresentation among orthopaedic residency or fellowship applicants. Studies investigating nonorthopaedic publications, systematic reviews, case studies, duplicate studies among databases, and gray literature were excluded. Two reviewers independently evaluated the quality of included studies using the Methodological Index for Nonrandomized Studies (MINORS) tool. This is a validated assessment tool that grades noncomparative studies from 0 to 16 and studies with control groups from 0 to 24, based on eight criteria related to study design, outcomes assessed, and follow-up. All included articles were noncomparative studies, so the maximum score here was 16, with higher scores indicating better study quality. The mean MINORS score was 13 ± 1 in the studies we included. The final analysis included 10 studies with 5119 applicants. Eight studies evaluated orthopaedic residency applicants and two evaluated fellowship applicants. The applicant classes ranged from 1996 to 2019. Research misrepresentation was defined among studies as nonauthorship of an existing article, claimed authorship of a nonexistent article, or incorrect listing of authorship order for an existing article. Each study's findings and definition of research misrepresentation were considered to allow for a discussion of overall trends. The percentage of misrepresentation was further broken down by the misrepresentation type. Applicant characteristics and destination of submitted articles were also evaluated. Given the potential overlap between applicants among the studies, no pooled analysis was conducted, and results are presented as a narrative summary. Results: The percentage of overall publication misrepresentation was estimated to range between 1% (13 of 1100) and 21% (27 of 131), with more-recent studies reporting a lower proportion of overall articles misrepresented. Most studies we found claimed that authorship of a nonexistent article was the most common type of misrepresentation. Nonauthorship of an existing article and incorrect authorship order were less common. The percentage of applications with at least one misrepresentation was approximately 20% between 1998 and 2017. Most studies found no applicant characteristics, such as match outcomes, demographic markers, or academic records, that were consistently associated with a higher odds of the candidate misrepresenting his or her research credentials. Finally, approximately half of the articles listed as submitted to journals went on to publication, with one-third going to a different journal with a lower Impact Factor. Conclusions: Our systematic review found that the percentage of overall publication misrepresentations among orthopaedic residency and fellowship applicants has generally been low over the past 20 years. However, approximately one-fifth of applications had at least one research misrepresentation, with 2% having multiple misrepresentations on reported publications. There were no consistent applicant characteristics associated with higher odds of research misrepresentation. Additionally, most of the articles listed as submitted to journals for publication were ultimately published. Clinical Relevance: Although the decrease in overall publication misrepresentation is encouraging, our finding that one-fifth of applicants have research misrepresentation is a cause for concern. In light of a continually evolving application process, orthopaedic residency and fellowship programs must ensure there is integrity related to information that is self-reported by applicants. These findings also serve to encourage faculty members involved in the application screening and decision process to limit biases related to applicant demographics perceived to be associated with a high odds of misrepresentation. Furthermore, governing agencies and program leadership should evaluate methods of verifying unpublished work and provide opportunities for applicants to give publication updates throughout the application cycle.

This article presents unpublished documents about Maltese Christian history and Middle Ages written by a Discalced Carmelite friar in the seventeenth century and recently discovered in the Archives of the Generalate of the Discalced Carmelites in Rome. This is the opportunity to reflect on the attitude of Maltese and European scholars regarding the Church of Our Lady of Mellieha, one of the most important Medieval sites of Malta, in order to underline how scholars and missionaries of the seventeenth century related with the archaeological sites of the island dating after the Islamic period. The essay aims therefore to describe how scholars of the seventeenth century approached the multicultural and often turbulent aspects of the Mediterranean history, contributed in assessing the nascent study of Arabic language and culture, and structured a shared Mediterranean cultural identity.

Background: The Code of Ethics for Psychiatry adopted by the World Psychiatric Association in 1977, also known as the Declaration of Hawaii, was a milestone in the development of ethical standards in psychiatry. The impetus for the development of the code came primarily from the politicization of psychiatry, first discovered in the USSR, and later in other countries of the socialist camp, such as Romania, Yugoslavia, and the People's Republic of China. The purpose of this article is to trace reasons for the lack of consolidation among Western psychiatrists against the politicization of psychiatry and their efforts to improve the ethical standards in this medical field. Methods: We analyzed unpublished documents from the Archive of the German Association for Psychiatry, Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics, the private archives of the West German psychiatrists Gerd Huber and Walter von Baeyer as well as research works. To examine these sources, we implemented the historicalcritical method. Results: The World Psychiatric Association made efforts to collect, analyze and discuss materials concerning psychiatric ethics in order to create the Code of Ethics for Psychiatry and establish an Ethical Committee. In general, the reaction of Western psychiatrists to the information about the internment of dissidents in psychiatric hospitals was restrained and focused on attempts to solve the issue together with the Soviet colleagues. Conclusion: The international policy of détente of the time as well as collisions between different medical concepts and ethical dimensions did not allow Western psychiatrists to condemn cases of politicization of psychiatry without proir clarification of the situation. The efforts of the World Psychiatric Association in the ethical field improved the ethical standards for psychiatry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper explores materials, methods and approaches used by Russian sinologists to define and analyse the cult of Guan Yu (also known as Guan-gong, Guandi, etc.), a popular god of the Chinese pantheon, revered by Daoists, Buddhists and educated Confucians, and who was also granted a number of imperial titles. Guan Yu was worshipped in late imperial China as god of war and wealth, paragon of moral virtue and loyalty to the ruler. Published and unpublished materials by Russian scholars shed light on beliefs and practices related to Guan Yu and display an array of methods including translation of original Chinese sources, field observations, scrutiny of numerous written and oral sources as well as mythological motifs. The paper displays how various angles and approaches to the same subject – worship of Guan Yu – allow a multifaceted and wholesome vision of this god's place in Chinese traditional culture.

The failure of Christian democracy is one of the most significant events of the Spanish Transition. Despite their broad expectations, the impossible understanding among the main Christian Democrat leaders weakened their electoral options. Through unpublished material, it intends to trace a new journey through the history of the different Christian-Democratic formations with the aim of understanding the way in which the actions of their highest leaders motivated that failure. Excessive ambitions, strategic discrepancies, mutual mistrust and the complex game of perceptions and self-perceptions were an impediment to a union that diluted the options of Christian democracy.
