    DIETARY FIBER: How Did We Get Where We Are? (2005)
    Palo Alto, Calif. : Annual Reviews

    Notes: Dietary fiber has been a topic of considerable interest among nutritionists and clinicians for the past 50 years. Many studies on fiber have concentrated on fiber isolates, resulting in findings that have ignored fiber as a component of fruits, vegetables, nuts, cereals, and legumes in the general diet. The principle actions of fiber are to alter the nature of the contents of the gastrointestinal tract and to modify the absorption of other nutrients and chemicals. Fiber is but one component of plant food, and to neglect the other componentsĐ??be they proteins, lipids, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, or the secondary metabolitesĐ??is to seriously limit our understanding. Much of the effort expended in defining fiber and studying the fiber isolate would have been better focused using this whole-plant-food approach. Greater progress in our understanding of the relevance of fiber in the etiology of disease would have been achieved if a more holistic approach had been followed.

    Corporate social responsibility: a case study of the UK's leading food retailers (2005)
    Bradford : Emerald
    British food journal 107 (2005), S. 423-435 
    Details
    ISSN: 0007-070X
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Agriculture, Forestry, Horticulture, Fishery, Domestic Science, Nutrition
    Notes: Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to offer a preliminary case study exploration of the corporate social responsibility (CSR) issues being addressed and reported by the UK's leading food retailers. Design/methodology/approach - The paper begins with a short discussion of the characteristics and origins of CSR and this is followed by an outline of the structure of food retailing in the UK and of the ways in which the leading food retailers are driving innovation and development. The paper draws its empirical material from the CSR reports and information posted on the world wide web by the UK's ten leading food retailers. Findings - The findings reveal that each of the leading food retailers has its own approach to CSR and that there are substantial variations in the nature and extent of the reporting process. That said, there is some common ground in reporting on a range of environmental issues, on sourcing, on employees, on customers and on the communities in which the retailers operate. The underlying message is that all food retailers believe that CSR is an integral element of their core business. Originality/value - The paper provides an accessible review of CSR issues and agendas, as perceived by the UK's leading food retailers, and as such will interest academics and practitioners working in and on this sector of the retail marketplace.

    Retailers and sustainable development in the UK (2005)
    Bingley : Emerald
    International journal of retail and distribution management 33 (2005), S. 207-214 
    Details
    ISSN: 0959-0552
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Purpose - Aims to offer a simple exploratory review of how the major retailers in the UK are tackling the issue of sustainable development. Design/methodology/approach - The top 20 retailers, based on 2002 sales figures, were selected for analysis and an internet search of their web sites, exploring their "corporate social responsibility" reports and statements, was undertaken. Findings - The review suggests that the majority of the major retailers are addressing sustainability agendas, that they recognise, albeit in varying measure, the impacts their businesses have on the environment, the economy and society and several of them are looking to measure and benchmark their performance. Originality/value - Sustainable development is attracting increasing attention in government and in the business community and the paper provides students pursuing retail and business management programmes, academic staff teaching on them and retail researchers and consultants with a contemporary view of how the UK's large retailers are addressing the issue.

    Improving the reporting of clinical audits in the NHS (2005)
    Bradford : Emerald
    Clinical governance 10 (2005), S. 190-195 
    Details
    ISSN: 1477-7274
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Medicine , Economics
    Notes: Purpose - The Centre for Reviews and Dissemination was commissioned to conduct a systmatic review of clinical audits undertaken to assess the implementation and effectiveness of the National Health Service (NHS) two-week waiting time policy for cancer referrals in England and Wales. This paper highlights the logistical difficulties experienced by the review team in trying to obtain information from the NHS, and discusses what needs to be done in order to improve the reporting and usefulness of clinical audit reports. Design/methodology/approach - A total of 650 key individuals within NHS Trusts and Strategic Health Authorities were contacted for copies of relevant audits. Other key individuals and organisations across the NHS were also contacted, web sites of key organisations searched, requests for audits on relevant e-mail discussion lists posted and electronic databases and conference proceedings searched. Findings - Finds that many trusts do not appear to hold a centralised record of what clinical audits have been performed within the trust. In many instances several follow-up contacts were necessary. The majority of included audits were poorly reported, with fewer than half providing sufficient detail on methodological aspects for the audit to be reproducible. Practical implications - There should be a system of recording ongoing and completed audits conducted within the NHS, to ensure that audit reports are produced and accessible. The NHS needs to make sure that not only are appropriate audit methods used but that audit reports are written up in sufficient detail to allow the reader to ascertain how the audit was conducted and to assess the validity of the results. Documentary evidence of action plans would make it easier for those not directly involved in the audit to assess if, and in what ways, the audit findings are being acted upon to improve existing practices and procedures. Originality/value - This paper discusses what needs to be done in order to improve the reporting and usefulness of clinical audit reports.

    Topics: Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Production Engineering, Mining and Metallurgy, Traffic Engineering, Precision Mechanics
    Notes: Purpose - Describes the application of standard industrial robots to the assembly and riveting of aerostructure sub-assemblies. Design/methodology/approach - Describes the design and operation of special purpose end-effectors for assembly and solid riveting and their integration in an aerostructure sub-assembly fabrication cell. The robots are controlled by a novel control system which allows the cell to compensate for distortion and misalignment of the components. Findings - Demonstrates that with advanced control standard industrial robots can be used to assemble aerostructure sub-assemblies. Originality/value - Introduces techniques for compensating for the inherent distortion that occurs in airframe components during manufacture. This is an enabling technology that will significantly increase the number of possible applications for robots in the assembly of aerostructures.
