Pushes and Pulls of ISO28000 Implementation in Supply-Chain of Malaysia Mining

Supply chain security is one of the components of an industry’s strategy to protect their chain from any risk that can damage their supply chain. ISO 28000 is a standard which specify requirement for security management system for the supply chain. However, there are still many organizations didn’t apply for this standard. Still many mining industries are doubtful about the effectiveness of ISO 28000. This paper objective to examine the pushes and pulls of ISO 28000 implementation for Pahang mining industry. From literature, potential pushes and pulls are identified, then the researchers undergo interview session with experts in mining industry from Pahang of Malaysia. Based on the interview result, this study introduces a list of pushes and pulls to the supply chain security standard. This contributes to implementation of ISO 28000 in mining industry of Malaysia, specifically Pahang. In the industry, the result of this study is beneficial for supply chain managers and policy-makers to ease the ISO implementation and reduce supply chain risks

Benefits that Attract Industry to Implement ISO 28000 to Secure Supply Chain

ISO 28000 is an international standard that requires specific qualifications in the security management system and it includes critical aspects that are related to security pledge in the supply chain. Supply chain security is one of the components of an organization’s strategy to secure their supply chain from the threat. Supply chain and organization that implement supply chain security mainly protect their chain from any risk that can damage their supply chain. ISO 28000 has the reason to affect industry to use it in order to protect supply chain process. Based on a literature review, this study is adding a list of benefits to the basic supply chain security that attracts industry to implement ISO 28000. Researchers believe that this study helps the industry in supply chain performance with the related information and reference about ISO 28000

BJS commission on surgery and perioperative care post-COVID-19

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was declared a pandemic by the WHO on 11 March 2020 and global surgical practice was compromised. This Commission aimed to document and reflect on the changes seen in the surgical environment during the pandemic, by reviewing colleagues experiences and published evidence. Methods: In late 2020, BJS contacted colleagues across the global surgical community and asked them to describe how severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) had affected their practice. In addition to this, the Commission undertook a literature review on the impact of COVID-19 on surgery and perioperative care. A thematic analysis was performed to identify the issues most frequently encountered by the correspondents, as well as the solutions and ideas suggested to address them. Results: BJS received communications for this Commission from leading clinicians and academics across a variety of surgical specialties in every inhabited continent. The responses from all over the world provided insights into multiple facets of surgical practice from a governmental level to individual clinical practice and training. Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic has uncovered a variety of problems in healthcare systems, including negative impacts on surgical practice. Global surgical multidisciplinary teams are working collaboratively to address research questions about the future of surgery in the post-COVID-19 era. The COVID-19 pandemic is severely damaging surgical training. The establishment of a multidisciplinary ethics committee should be encouraged at all surgical oncology centres. Innovative leadership and collaboration is vital in the post-COVID-19 era

Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (4th edition)

In 2008, we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, this topic has received increasing attention, and many scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Thus, it is important to formulate on a regular basis updated guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Despite numerous reviews, there continues to be confusion regarding acceptable methods to evaluate autophagy, especially in multicellular eukaryotes. Here, we present a set of guidelines for investigators to select and interpret methods to examine autophagy and related processes, and for reviewers to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of reports that are focused on these processes. These guidelines are not meant to be a dogmatic set of rules, because the appropriateness of any assay largely depends on the question being asked and the system being used. Moreover, no individual assay is perfect for every situation, calling for the use of multiple techniques to properly monitor autophagy in each experimental setting. Finally, several core components of the autophagy machinery have been implicated in distinct autophagic processes (canonical and noncanonical autophagy), implying that genetic approaches to block autophagy should rely on targeting two or more autophagy-related genes that ideally participate in distinct steps of the pathway. Along similar lines, because multiple proteins involved in autophagy also regulate other cellular pathways including apoptosis, not all of them can be used as a specific marker for bona fide autophagic responses. Here, we critically discuss current methods of assessing autophagy and the information they can, or cannot, provide. Our ultimate goal is to encourage intellectual and technical innovation in the field
