There is nothing more inscribed nor thought nor felt and this must comfort the heart’s core against Its false disasters - these fathers standing round. These mothers touching, speaking, being near. These lovers waiting In the soft dry grass. [Wallace Stevens. “Credences of Summer”!“I have come to regard the law courts not as a cathedral but rather as a casino”. [Richard Ingrams, former Editor of Private Eye.]Before entering into discussion of the substantive topic, it should be said that Australian Family Law is, in one sense at least, always new. It is without question one of the most scrutinised areas of Australian Law: the Family Law Act 1975 has been amended no less than thirty four times since its coming into force in February 1976, sometimes extensively; it has been the subject of two reports of Joint Select Committees of the Australian Parliament, in 1980 (Bates, 1980) and 1992 (below). In addition, its operation and administration is under continual scrutiny from two statutory bodies – the Family Law Council (Family Law Act 1975 s115) and the Australian Institute of Family Studies (Family Law Act 1975 Part XIVB).

Full textAbstract:
Since the Australian Institute of Family Studies was established in 1980, we have kept in mind two slogans about family links and supports: ‘Every individual has a family’; and ‘The family does not stop at the front door’. What we meant was that family policy cannot be based solely on a static image of parents and children living together under the one roof.Most families start off as a couple, then go through a stage of parents and children living in one household. But once the children have grown and gone, does the couple no longer have a family? If the parents separate or divorce, do the children not have any family? When a partner dies or the children are grown, the family still exists, though the patterns of interaction have changed. Thus family policy has to address the nature of these interactions, across households and across time.

Full textAbstract:
The Australian Twin Registry (ATR) is a national volunteer resource of twin pairs and higher-order multiples willing to consider participating in health, medical, and scientific research. The vision of the ATR is ‘to realize the full potential of research involving twins to improve the health and well-being of all Australians’. The ATR has been funded continuously by the National Health and Medical Council for more than 30 years. Its core functions entail the recruitment and retention of twin members, the maintenance of an up-to-date database containing members’ contact details and baseline information, and the promotion and provision of open access to researchers from all institutes in Australia, and their collaborators, in a fair and equitable manner. The ATR is administered by The University of Melbourne, which acts as custodian. Since the late 1970s the ATR has enrolled more than 40,000 twin pairs of all zygosities and facilitated more than 500 studies that have produced at least 700 peer-reviewed publications from classical twin studies, co-twin control studies, within-pair comparisons, twin family studies, longitudinal twin studies, randomized controlled trials, and epigenetics studies, as well as studies of issues specific to twins. New initiatives include: a Health and Life Style Questionnaire; data collection, management, and archiving using a secure online software program (The Ark); and the International Network of Twin Registries. The ATR's expertise and 30 years of experience in providing services to national and international twin studies has made it an important resource for research across a broad range of disciplines.

Full textAbstract:
Young adulthood is a period of transition, which for many includes higher education. Higher education is associated with specific risks to wellbeing. Understanding the available data on wellbeing in this group may help inform the future collection of data to inform policy and practice in the sector. This scoping review aimed to identify the availability of data sources on the wellbeing of the Australian young adult population who are attending tertiary education. Using the methods of Arksey and O’Malley, data from three primary sources, i.e., Australian Bureau of Statistics, Australian Institute of Health and Welfare and relevant longitudinal studies, were identified. Data sources were screened and coded, and relevant information was extracted. Key data for eight areas related to wellbeing, namely, family and community, health, education and training, work, economic wellbeing, housing, crime and justice, and culture and leisure sources were identified. Forty individual data sets from 16 surveys and six active longitudinal studies were identified. Two data sets contained seven of the areas of wellbeing, of which one was specific to young adults in tertiary education, while the other survey was not limited to young adults. Both data sets lacked information concerning crime and justice variables, which have recently been identified as being of major concern among Australian university students. We recommend that government policy address the collection of a comprehensive data set encompassing each of the eight areas of wellbeing to inform future policy and practice.

Full textAbstract:
After 25 years with the Australian Journal of Chemistry, our editor, Dr Jan R. Zdysiewicz (known far and wide as John Z.), has recently retired. During his initial ten year period with the journal, John served as assistant editor under Bob Schoenfeld who, like John, was also very widely known throughout the Australian and New Zealand chemistry community. In 1985, John took up the editorship and under his editorial management the journal has continued to prosper. John has been an exceptionally talented editor who, despite increasing pressures over more recent times, has managed to maintain the journal’s very high editorial standard – a task aided by his wide understanding of chemistry and his truly exceptional knowledge of English usage. John had an eventful early life – details of which may be of interest to his many friends and acquaintances. He was born in Laukischken in East Prussia to parents from Mosty in eastern Poland. His parents had been taken to Germany during World War II for forced labour. After the war, the family was transferred, endlessly it seemed, from DP (displaced persons) camp to DP camp in Germany, until final acceptance for migration to Australia. After a long sea voyage on the Skaugum, the family arrived at Port Melbourne in December 1950. Then followed being shuffled between widely spread immigration holding centres in South-East Australia, finally ending up in Adelaide, where the family settled. After some difficulty in gaining enrolment, John attended Adelaide Boys High School. In 1962 at age 19, he lost his alien status and became an Australian citizen. Even during this early period, John Z. made a name for himself. He became somewhat of a celebrity for his virtuosity in playing the accordion. In 1961, he became Grand Australian Accordion Champion. On occasions, he still plays for friends and private audiences. John Z. obtained his tertiary education at the University of Adelaide. His Ph.D. research in the Department of Physical and Inorganic Chemistry was concerned with physical chemical studies on naturally occurring and synthetic polymers. He then held Post Doctoral appointments in England at the University of Lancaster (preparation and e.s.r. characterisation of radical anions), Australia at the Division of Protein Chemistry, CSIRO, Parkville (on the interactions of fluorescent compounds with protein components by photophysical techniques) and Canada at the University of Western Ontario (construction of a microsecond flash photolysis apparatus in connection with photochemical reactions involving radical ions). In 1975 he returned to Australia as the assistant editor of Aust. J. Chem. John Z. has served as the national representative on IUPAC’s Commission III.2 (on Physical Organic Chemistry) and is currently an associate member of this commission. In 1998, the Royal Australian Chemical Institute awarded him a citation for his contributions to the promotion of Australian chemistry nationally and internationally, principally through his role as editor of the journal. Finally, John is of a distinctly independent nature – perhaps a reflection of his Polish antecedents? While his management style might be said to be unique, it has always been characterised by an overriding commitment to quality. Clearly, John Zdysiewicz ranks as an exceptional individual. On behalf of my fellow advisory committee members and, indeed, also for the wider chemistry community, I thank John for a job exceedingly well done. We wish him well in his retirement.

Full textAbstract:
Objective There is a paucity of research on the quality of evidence relating to primary care workforce models. Thus, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the quality of evidence on diabetes primary care workforce models in Australia. Methods The National Health and Medical Research Council of Australia’s (National Health and Medical Reseach Council; 2000, 2001) frameworks for evaluating scientific evidence and economic evaluations were used to assess the quality of studies involving primary care workforce models for diabetes care involving Australian adults. A search of medical databases (MEDLINE, AMED, RURAL, Australian Indigenous HealthInfoNet and The Cochrane Institute), journals for diabetes care (Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice, Diabetes Care, Diabetic Medicine, Population Health Management, Rural and Remote Health, Australian Journal of Primary Health, PLoS Medicine, Medical Journal of Australia, BMC Health Services Research, BMC Public Health, BMC Family Practice) and Commonwealth and state government health websites was undertaken to acquire Australian studies of diabetes workforce models published 2005–13. Various diabetes workforce models were examined, including ‘one-stop shops’, pharmacy care, Aboriginal services and telephone-delivered interventions. The quality of evidence was evaluated against several criteria, including relevance and replication, strength of evidence, effect size, transferability and representativeness, and value for money. Results Of the14 studies found, four were randomised controlled trials and one was a systematic review (i.e. Level II and I (best) evidence). Only three provided a replicable protocol or detailed intervention delivery. Eleven lacked a theoretical framework. Twelve reported significant improvements in clinical (patient) outcomes, commonly HbA1c, cholesterol and blood pressure; only four reported changes in short- and long-term outcomes (e.g. quality of life). Most studies used a small or targeted population. Only two studies assessed both benefits and costs of their intervention compared with usual care and cost effectiveness. Conclusions More rigorous studies of diabetes workforce models are needed to determine whether these interventions improve patient outcomes and, if they do, represent value for money. What is known about the topic? Although health systems with strong primary care orientations have been associated with enhanced access, equity and population health, the primary care workforce is facing several challenges. These include a mal-distribution of resources (supply side) and health outcomes (demand side), inconsistent support for teamwork care models, and a lack of enhanced clinical inter-professional education and/or training opportunities. These challenges are exacerbated by an ageing health workforce and general population, as well as a population that has increased prevalence of chronic conditions and multi-morbidity. Although several policy directions have been advocated to address these challenges, there is a lack of high-quality evidence about which primary care workforce models are best (and which models represent better value for money than current practice) and what the health effects are for patients. What does this paper add? This study demonstrated several strengths and weaknesses of Australian diabetes models of care studies. In particular, only five of the 14 studies assessed were designed in a way that enabled them to achieve a Level II or I rating (and hence the ‘best’ level of evidence), based on the NHMRC’s (2000, 2001) frameworks for assessing scientific evidence. The majority of studies risked the introduction of bias and thus may have incorrect conclusions. Only a few studies described clearly what the intervention and the comparator were and thus could be easily replicated. Only two studies included cost-effectiveness studies of their interventions compared with usual care. What are the implications for practitioners? Although there has been an increase in the number of primary care workforce models implemented in Australia, there is a need for more rigorous research to assess whether these interventions are effective in producing improved health outcomes and represent better value for money than current practice. Researchers and policymakers need to make decisions based on high-quality evidence; it is not obvious what effect the evidence is having on primary care workforce reform.

Full textAbstract:
In 2005 the Institute of Child Protection Studies, Australian Catholic University, was approached by the ACT Government and asked to evaluate the ‘child centredness’ of its child protection policies and procedures. An early review of the literature discovered some use of the term ‘child centred’ in government documents but very little clear indication of its meaning in the theoretical and empirical literature. This paper canvasses the literature and develops a set of principles for child centred practice which may apply to all child and family agencies. In developing these principles, the researchers identified four key themes which provide a broad, overarching framework for child centred approaches. These themes emphasise the importance of: recognising critical time frames in childhood and adolescence; taking into account the developmental needs of children and young people in all practice contexts; providing children and young people with appropriate opportunities to participate in decisions that affect them; and promoting a collaborative approach to influencing children’s multiple environments. The researchers claim these principles can be used to provide the basis for evaluating policies and practices and for ongoing training.

Full textAbstract:
Physical activity has cultural significance and population health benefits. However, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander adults may experience challenges in participating in physical activity. This mixed methods systematic review aimed to synthetize existing evidence on facilitators and barriers for physical activity participation experienced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander adults in Australia. The Joanna Briggs Institute methodology was used. A systematic search was undertaken of 11 databases and 14 grey literature websites during 2020. The included studies reported physical activity facilitators and barriers experienced by Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander participants aged 18+ years, living in the community. Twenty-seven studies met the inclusion criteria. Sixty-two facilitators were identified: 23 individual, 18 interpersonal, 8 community/environmental and 13 policy/program facilitators. Additionally, 63 barriers were identified: 21 individual, 17 interpersonal, 15 community/environmental and 10 policy/program barriers. Prominent facilitators included support from family, friends, and program staff, and opportunities to connect with community or culture. Prominent barriers included a lack of transport, financial constraints, lack of time, and competing work, family or cultural commitments. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander adults experience multiple facilitators and barriers to physical activity participation. Strategies to increase participation should seek to enhance facilitators and address barriers, collaboratively with communities, with consideration to the local context.

Full textAbstract:
Crystals of imidazole compounds typically organize themselves with NH---N hydrogen bonded 1D chains in the absence of other hydrogen bond donor or acceptor groups. The 'synthon' is robust, but can vary considerably in length, which is related to the pKa and the linearity of the hydrogen bond. For symmetric imidazoles with effectively perfect pKa matching of the two N atoms, this implies that many crystals may exhibit statistical disorder of the hydrogen positions. However X-ray studies alone cannot readily distinguish the true extent of this, since unlike carboxylic acid analogues, even fully ordered systems show little difference in the N(1)-C(2) and N(3)=C(2) bond lengths of the imidazole ring. Despite their fundamental nature, surprisingly few neutron studies have been carried out on such NH---N systems and only the parent compound imidazole itself has been examined in depth.[1,2] Herein we report the extension of this to a range of other imidazoles and benzimidazoles. In particular 2-methylbenzimidazole [3] and 2-ethylbenzimidazole are ideal candidates to allow study of bent and linear, ordered and disordered hydrogen bond chains in this family of compounds. Neutron data were collected at low temperature on these and other compounds, using specimens of around cubic 1mm on KOALA Laue neutron diffractometer at the Bragg Institute, Australia. The results support the general findings of related single crystal X-ray studies. However the N-H positions are obtained with good accuracy and correlations of covalent N-H to intermolecular H--N can be made. They also confirm that essentially full ordering of hydrogen bond chains in crystals such as 2-Ethylbenzimidazole (shown in Figure) is possible, with only a single 'negative peak' for the proton position found along the N---N vector. This may have positive implications for the development of such crystals as molecular ferroelectrics. The authors are grateful for an award of beam-time by ANSTO (Proposal 2765).

Peanut is one of the most important crops in the Fabaceae Lindl. (Leguminosae L.) family. South America is considered to be the homeland of peanut, but now this crop is cultivated in America, Africa, Australia, Europe and Asia. The modern phylogenetic system of the genus Arachis L. includes 79 wild species and one cultivated species of common peanut (A. hypogaea L.). Diploid species contain 2n = 20 chromosomes of the A, B or D genome, tetraploids have A and B genomes. The А and В genomes are sequenced. Special biological features of all peanut varieties are the presence of chasmogamous and cleistogamous flowers and the development of pods only underground (geocarpy). Along with high requirements for improving the quality of oil and food products, much attention is paid to their safety: resistance to aflatoxin contamination and mitigation of allergenicity. Peanut cultivars vary in plant habit, shape and color of pods and seeds. Their growing season in Africa, Latin America and Asia is from 160 to 200 days, so early-ripening forms need to be selected for the south of the Russian Federation. Breeders from the Pustovoit Institute of Oil Crops (VNIIMK) have developed peanut cultivars with a yield of 2.0–3.3 t/ha and growing season duration of 115–120 days, adaptable to the environments of Krasnodar Territory. At present, there is no large-scale peanut production in Russia, nor any breeding efforts are underway. As for the world, along with conventional breeding practices (individual selection, intra- and interspecies crosses, etc.), peanut is widely involved in genomic studies. A number of cultivars highly resistant to pests, diseases and drought have been released. Over 15,000 peanut accessions are preserved in the world’s gene banks, including 1823 accessions in the collection of the Vavilov Institute (VIR). Utilization of the worldwide genetic resources of peanut and use of modern research technologies will contribute to the revival of peanut cultivation in Russia.

Full textAbstract:
Background More men than women in the UK are living with overweight or obesity, but men are less likely to engage with weight loss programmes. Healthy Dads, Healthy Kids is an effective Australian weight management programme that targets fathers, who participate with their primary school-aged children. Behavioural interventions do not always transfer between contexts, so an adaptation of the Healthy Dads, Healthy Kids programme to an ethnically diverse UK setting was trialled. Objectives To adapt and test the Australian Healthy Dads, Healthy Kids programme for delivery to men in an ethnically diverse, socioeconomically disadvantaged UK setting. Design Phase 1a studied the cultural adaptation of the Healthy Dads, Healthy Kids programme and was informed by qualitative data from fathers and other family members, and a theoretical framework. Phase 1b was an uncontrolled feasibility trial. Phase 2 was a randomised controlled feasibility trial. Setting Two ethnically diverse, socioeconomically disadvantaged UK cities. Participants In phase 1a, participants were parents and family members from black and minority ethnic groups and/or socioeconomically deprived localities. In phases 1b and 2, participants were fathers with overweight or obesity and their children aged 4–11 years. Interventions The adapted Healthy Dads, Healthy Kids intervention comprised nine sessions that targeted diet and physical activity and incorporated joint father–child physical activity. Healthy Dads, Healthy Kids was delivered in two programmes in phase 1b and four programmes in phase 2. Those in the comparator arm in phase 2 received a family voucher to attend a local sports centre. Main outcome measures The following outcomes were measured: recruitment to the trial, retention, intervention fidelity, attendance, feasibility of trial processes and collection of outcome data. Results Forty-three fathers participated (intervention group, n = 29) in phase 2 (48% of recruitment target), despite multiple recruitment locations. Fathers’ mean body mass index was 30.2 kg/m2 (standard deviation 5.1 kg/m2); 60.2% were from a minority ethnic group, with a high proportion from disadvantaged localities. Twenty-seven (63%) fathers completed follow-up at 3 months. Identifying sites for delivery at a time that was convenient for the families, with appropriately skilled programme facilitators, proved challenging. Four programmes were delivered in leisure centres and community venues. Of the participants who attended the intervention at least once (n = 20), 75% completed the programme (attended five or more sessions). Feedback from participants rated the sessions as ‘good’ or ‘very good’ and participants reported behavioural change. Researcher observations of intervention delivery showed that the sessions were delivered with high fidelity. Conclusions The intervention was well delivered and received, but there were significant challenges in recruiting overweight men, and follow-up rates at 3 and 6 months were low. We do not recommend progression to a definitive trial as it was not feasible to deliver the Healthy Dads, Healthy Kids programme to fathers living with overweight and obesity in ethnically diverse, socioeconomically deprived communities in the UK. More work is needed to explore the optimal ways to engage fathers from ethnically diverse socioeconomically deprived populations in research.

Full textAbstract:
IntroductionInvestment in early childhood produces positive returns: for the child, the family and the community. Benefits have been shown to be significant within certain parameters, but a systematic review of the economic evidence across multiple sectors including health, education and social welfare will have the capacity to inform policy relative to the full range of social determinants. This review will take a broad approach, encompassing a range of costs and benefits to enable the identification of the most beneficial investments in early childhood and to highlight gaps in current research.Methods and analysisEconomic evaluations incorporating both costs and long-term outcomes of early childhood interventions and programmes will be included. Outcomes may be valued in monetary units or quantified non-monetary units (eg, quality-adjusted life years (QALY), disability-adjusted life years (DALY)). Results will be expressed as a ratio according to the outcome; with monetary outcomes expressed as cost-benefit ratios or return on investment, and non-monetary outcomes expressed as cost per QALY or DALY. The target population is children aged 0–5 years.Extensive database searches across sectors will be undertaken. The review will involve five phases: defining the research question, identifying relevant studies, selecting studies, extracting and collating data, and summarising and reporting results. The search commenced in 2019 and the expected end date is December 2020.Ethics and disseminationThe findings of this review will inform policymakers and practitioners in public health, education, social welfare and primary care settings. The publication plan includes a series of academic publications, and policy papers prepared and disseminated through Telethon Kids Institute networks. Exemption from ethics approval was granted by the University of Western Australia Human Ethics Office (RA/4/20/5677).PROSPERO registration numberCRD42020145901.

Full textAbstract:
Background:The small molecule BCL-2 inhibitor Venetoclax (VEN) has emerged as a promising frontline therapy in combination with low dose cytarabine (LDAC) or hypomethylating agents in older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML)(DiNardo et al, Lancet Oncol 2018, Blood 2019; Wei et al,JCO 2019). The anti-leukemic activity of single agent VEN as monotherapy in newly diagnosed AML is unknown. This information would be useful for studies considering VEN as a maintenance therapy. We have previously presented preliminary outcomes from a phase 1b/2 study: Chemotherapy and Venetoclax in Elderly AML Trial (CAVEAT), which incorporated a 7-day single agent VEN run-in phase prior to combination with chemotherapy (Wei et al, ASH 2018). The study procedures incorporated a bone marrow assessment performed at study screening and on day 8, prior to commencement of chemotherapy (Figure 1A). This allowed us to explore the single agent activity of venetoclax on bone marrow blasts in treatment naïve patients with AML and to assess molecular dynamics of response. Methods:The CAVEAT trial included 51 de novo or secondary patients with AML aged ≥65 years and considered fit for intensive chemotherapy. The study enrolled patients to 5 VEN dose cohorts (50-100-200-400-600mg). VEN was administered on days 1-14 during induction. Chemotherapy commenced on day 8, with a 7-day VEN monotherapy pre-phase. Molecular studies:a 54-gene myeloid NGS panel (Illumina TruSight) and MassARRAY MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry was performed on DNA extracted from bone marrow aspirates. FLT3-ITD testing was by fragment analysis, PCR and capillary electrophoresis. Minimal residual disease (MRD) testing was performed by digital droplet PCR for IDH mutations (assay sensitivity: 10-4-10-5). Results: A total of 46 patients had paired BM assessments at screening and on day 8 for comparison. A ≥50% relative reduction in BM blasts was recorded in 13/46 (28%) patients. Figure 1B shows the relative BM blast reduction stratified by molecular subgroups. Patients with NPM1(n=9) or IDH2 (n=8) mutation achieved greater BM blast reductions (median of 56% and 55%, respectively) than IDH1 (n=6), TP53 (n=10) or FLT3-ITD (n=5) mutant cases (median of 37%, 17% and 7%, respectively). Three NPM1 mutant cases with <25% blast reduction had contemporaneous kinase activating mutations (FLT3-ITD, FLT3-TKD and c-KIT). Molecular studies were performed on serial screening and day 8 bone marrow samples in 21 patients (Figure 1C). Variant allele frequency (VAF) reductions were observed in 6/8 (75%) NPM1 and 6/11 (55%) IDH 1/2 mutant cases. 1/8 (13%) NPM1 mutant and 4/11 (36%) IDH 1/2 mutant cases had reduction in molecular burden to below the limit of detection (5%) by day 8. Minimal reduction in VAF was seen in DNMT3A, SRSF2, NRAS/KRAS and FLT3-ITD mutations. 4 out of 5 (80%) FLT3-ITD mutant cases had an increase in VAF at day 8. Clinically, complete remission (CR) and CR with incomplete count recovery (CRi) rates after chemotherapy were seen for the following mutations: NPM1(80%), IDH2 (100%), IDH1 (62%) and TP53 (36%) (Figure 1D). Despite all four response-evaluable patients with FLT3-ITD achieving CR/CRi, 3/4 relapsed with detectable FLT3-ITD (at 0.8, 1.5 and 12.3 months respectively). Median survival for each genomic sub-group were NPM1 (12.5m), IDH2 (not reached), IDH1 (6.1m),TP53 (3.8m), FLT3-ITD (5.5m). CyTOF analyses for changes in BCL-2 family expression are underway and results will be presented at the meeting. Conclusion: Treatment naïve NPM1 and IDH2 mutant AML blasts are highly sensitive to VEN alone and combination with cytarabine and anthracycline chemotherapy results in a high clinical response rate. TP53 and FLT3-ITD mutant cases were more resistant and outcomes were poor despite VEN combined with chemotherapy.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Therapy-related myeloid neoplasm (t-MN) is considered to be a direct stochastic complication of chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy for primary cancer or autoimmune diseases. However, genetic predisposition is reported in 8-12% of sporadic adult cancer patients [Lu et al Nature Communication 2015 and Huang et al Cell 2018]. Similarly, genetic predispositions to t-MN have also been reported in limited single institute studies of small numbers of patients [Churpek et al Cancer 2016]. In this study, we performed comprehensive germline and somatic mutation profiling in t-MN using next generation sequencing. Matched germline material was available for 62/194 (32%) patients. Mutation profiling was correlated with clinical features including family history in 194 patients enrolled in the South Australian MDS (SA-MDS) registry and Cleveland Clinic (CC). An in-house well established filtering pipeline was used for identification of somatic mutations. Only variants with Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) minor allele frequency (MAF) of ≤0.01% and variant allele frequency (VAF) of ≥35% were selected for further analysis of germline variants. Variants reported in in the Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer database and MDS/AML were excluded from further analysis. Variants reported pathogenic in Breast Cancer Information Core (BIC) database and Leiden Open Variation Database (LOVD) were retained. Other variants were included if truncating (nonsense, indels, splice alterations), CADD>20, or predicted deleterious by >4/6 scoring algorithms (GERP>4, PhyloP>2, SIFT, PolyPhen2, MutationTaster and FATHMM). Forty-one (21%) t-MN patients harbored 45 rare (MAF<0.001) and deleterious germline mutations in the Fanconi anaemia (FA) pathway and driver myeloid genes including frameshift indels and splice site alterations in BRCA1, BRCA2, FANCA, PALB2, RAD51, DDX41 and TP53 (Figure 1A-B). The highest number of FA germline variants were seen in BRCA1 and FANCA (n=5 each) followed by BRCA2 (n=4), ERCC4, PALB2 and FANCC (n=2 each). We also identified 14 rare, deleterious myeloid germline variants in 13/194 (6.7%) of t-MN patients. These germline myeloid variants were identified in TP53, DDX41, GATA2 and MET; genes with well-known drivers of myeloid malignancies. Of the five acute lymphoblastic leukaemia patients with t-MN, 2/5 (40%) had rare myeloid germline variants in TP53, GATA2 and KMT2A. The frequency of these germline mutations in our t-MN cohort is higher than in the general population (gnomAD; Table 1) and in patients with primary malignancies such as breast cancer and lymphoma [Lu et al Nature Communication 2015 and Churpek et al Cancer 2016]. Intriguingly, the frequency of germline FA gene mutations (FAMT) in our therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome (t-MDS) patients is also higher than those reported in primary MDS patients (18% vs 9%, p=0.02) [Przychodzen et al 2018]. Additionally, of those with available family history, 62% of t-MN patients have first and/or second degree relatives with non-skin cancers. Significantly more patients with FA mutation (FAMT) had first and second degree relatives with cancers compared to patients without FA (FAWT) mutations (82% vs 58%; p=0.03). Additionally, chromosomes 3 and 7 abnormalities, as well as monosomal karyotype, were more frequent in FAMT cases compared to FAWT. Similarly, somatic mutations in GATA2 (10% vs 2%; p=0.02), BCOR (13% vs 4%; p=0.03) and IDH2 (10% vs 2%; p=0.02) were more frequent in FAMT compared to FAWT cases (Figure 1C). In summary, we show that at least one in five t-MN patients harbor deleterious germline mutations, and 82% of FAMT patients have a first or second degree relative with cancers. These findings have implication in management of not only t-MN patients but genetic testing for their family members.

AbstractThis study attempts to further the development of family business theory by providing a more detailed understanding of the differences between family and non-family firms' profitability, growth, exporting and networking behaviour. Utilising data from 2190 Australian SMEs, the study compares the Australian experience of differences between family and non-family firms with those found among Belgium firms. The Australian results are consistent with the growth and some of the networking behaviour found among Belgium firms, but not with their profitability and exporting behaviour. The study's findings support the contentions that the differences between family and non-family firms may be less than many earlier studies have indicated and that industry differences and cross-national differences in corporate governance environments may lead to variances in these differences. It also demonstrates that the underlying theoretical rationale for a number of predicted differences between family and non-family firms appears flawed. These findings indicate that new empirical studies that control for context are urgently needed to ensure the scholarly literature on family businesses is not being built on false assumptions. They also indicate that studies designed to explain differences in the family/non-family business relationship between industries and nations may lead to advances in family business theory.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Over the last three decades, Australian opioid-prescribing rates and related morbidity and mortality have dramatically increased. Opioids are frequently prescribed by general practitioners (GPs) to manage chronic non-cancer pain, despite evidence-based recommendations from the Centre for Disease Control, National Institute for Health and Care Excellence and World Health Organization widely cautioning their use. Little is known about the factors influencing the opioid prescribing decisions of Australian GPs, especially when not evidence based. Objective To explore the opioid prescribing knowledge, attitudes and practices of Australian GPs. Methods Semi-structured interviews with 20 GPs recruited from the Monash University practice-based research network in metropolitan, southeastern Melbourne. Thematic analysis was used to identify emergent themes. Data were managed using QSR NVivo. Ethics approval was granted by Monash University. Results Three key themes emerged. GP attitudes towards opioid use for chronic pain varied by age of patient and goals for therapy. Use of opioids for elderly patients was positively perceived. GPs were reluctant to use opioids in younger patients due to fears of addiction and difficulty weaning. GPs felt obliged to prescribe opioids recommended by specialists, even if they believed the opioids were unsafe. Conclusion This study identified and described the patient-centred nature of GP opioid prescribing decisions. Patient age and perceived age-related opioid harm were important factors influencing prescribing decisions. Future work should inform interventions that value GP autonomy while still encouraging a collaborative inter-speciality approach to managing chronic pain patients with opioids.

Full textAbstract:
This article adopts a microanalytic approach to examine storytelling as a co-construction by family members in a Cypriot-Australian family. Previous studies on family storytelling have focused on the various roles of family members in storytelling with a means of studying family socialization (Miller et al., 1990; Ochs & Taylor, 1992; Blum-Kulka, 1997). These studies used critical discourse analysis, sociocultural theories, performance and pragmatic approaches to storytelling. This article offers a distinctive approach to family storytelling by examining the discourse and social identities that family members display during the storytelling. The data originate in a study that involves interviews with three generations of Greek-Australian and Cypriot-Australian women regarding their relationships with each other. In this paper we investigate the contributions of the father and the daughters in the course of the mother’s turn at storytelling. The first part of the analysis focuses on the husband’s discourse identities as a contributor, initiator and elicitor of his wife’s storytelling. During the storytelling we also observe the production and exchange of different social identities between the husband and the mother, such as the ‘unwilling suitor’, the ‘embarrassed schoolgirl’ or the ‘forceful but teasing husband’. The second part describes how the daughters take part in their mother’s storytelling, producing a variety of identities such as the ‘impatient mother’, the ‘complaining’, ‘happy’, or ‘good’ mothers and daughters. These investigations succinctly illustrate how narratives become a resource for members’ ‘display’ and ‘play’ of identities.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this study is to conduct a comparative analysis of the long-term operating performance of family and non-family firms from the agency theoretic perspective. The analysis is focused on investigating the impact of family ownership on principal–agent conflicts of interest. Design/methodology/approach – This paper examines the relationship between firm operating performance and family ownership for a large sample of 677 Australian-listed companies. The paper uses the Generalised Method of Moments (GMM) estimator model developed by Arellano and Bond (1991) and used by other studies in finance (Baltagi, 2012; Bond, 2002; Mohamed et al., 2008). Findings – The empirical results show that firms with ownership concentration has a better operating performance due to the alignment of owner-management interests. This study also finds that family-listed companies have higher survival rates and perform better than non-family companies. Findings support the hypothesis that agency costs arise as a result of privileged access of information and self-interest behaviour of managers (outsiders) in firms with dispersed ownership structures. Originality/value – Earlier studies have only focused on short-term perspectives, particularly investigating small and medium types of Australian family businesses from narrow aspects, such as productivity, business behaviour, capital structure and leverage. Therefore, this paper has conducted a comparative examination of family and non-family firms listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) to identify the impact of agency costs on their financial performance.

AbstractWith the development of large twin-family registers worldwide (see the December 2006 issue of Twin Research and Human Genetics for an overview) new options for research projects become feasible, including longitudinal studies. In this special issue on Longitudinal Twin and Family Studies, several aspects of longitudinal research are highlighted and an overview of results is given from European, Australian and United States twin studies. These studies deal with a time span from birth to adulthood and a wide range of phenotypes is covered. Data collection in some studies is age/cohort driven; in others, subjects are followed from different ages at regular time intervals. Most studies are based on data collection in twins, but adoption and parent–offspring data designs are described as well. The overview of results of current longitudinal projects makes this special issue a reference resource for longitudinal research in developmental behavior genetics.

Australian social workers, like their American peers, have questioned the relevance of brief intensive-family-preservation services (IFPS) to child neglect. Three scenarios involving physical and environmental neglect are compared and contrasted, and the experience of an Australian pilot IFPS program is explored, highlighting the use made of the worker's time in the home, the significance of family history, social support, and issues in termination and follow-up. The case studies suggest three subtypes of neglect, each of which has different implications for the delivery and organization of IFPS.

Full textAbstract:
There has been a significant increase in the number of studies investigating plant breeding and mating systems over the past 10 years. The family Proteaceae, in particular, has dominated such research conducted in Australia. Thus it is now timely to present a critical review of the breeding and mating systems of the Australian Proteaceae. It is hoped that this will stimulate further research. The review covers key events between pollen deposition on stigmas through to fruit set. The genus Banksia, although not the most diverse of the family, has received a disproportionate amount of attention. It has featured in nine published studies of self-compatibility compared to 13 studies spanning the other 45 genera and has featured in eight genetic studies of the mating system compared to just two on other genera. Few studies have assessed the timing of stigma receptivity despite the intriguing situation in most Proteaceae of auto-deposition of self-pollen on or near stigmas at anthesis. Studies suggest that stigmas are not receptive until 0.5–4 days after anthesis. Banksia species appear to show low levels of self-compatibility although one subspecies shows high levels of selfing and evidence of selective fruit development. Self-compatibility may be more common in other genera, although a dearth of studies precludes generalisation. Assessment of mating systems indicates almost complete outcrossing for most species, lending support to the idea of selective fruit development. It is clear that many further studies of all topics are required but particularly across a wide range of genera because many have not been studied at all.
