Organisational Readiness for ERP Implementation

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

An ERP implementation is a significant intervention in organisational life. As such, it affects and is affected by many variables including the organisation's culture, decision-making strategies, risk taking orientation, leadership strategies and perceptions of the value of Information Technology. For organisations to achieve business benefit in their ERP implementation, the implementation must be short, raise appropriate issues for business to make decisions on, and effectively implement those decisions.. This paper describes the research program being undertaken to identify the variables that inhibit an ERP implementation.
PROGNOSTIC FACTORS OF PROSTATE CANCER SYSTEMIC PROGRESSION IN PATIENTS WITH BIOCHEMICAL RECURRENCE AFTER RADICAL PROSTATECTOMY

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The impact of different prognostics factors on the probability of development local and systemic relups in patient with biochemical recurrence following prostatectomy was studied. By multivariable analysis, predictors of systemic progression were seminal vesicle invasion (pT3b) (p = 0,005), trigger prostate-specific antigen level greater than 2 ng/mL (p = 0,03), prostate-specific antigen doubling time of 6 months or less (p = 0,002) and prostate-specific antigen velocity greater than 0,1 ng/mL per month (p &lt; 0,0001). The rate of systemic progression in patient with not greater than one unfavorable predictor was 6,3 %, with two or greater predictors – 88,9 % (p &lt; 0,001).
Sustainable regional development in the context of bioeconomic trend: Pskov Region

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The article presents arguments for the strategy of regional sustainable development (on the example of Pskov region), based on the implementation of the forest potential of the territory on the principles of bioeconomy with a cluster approach to the organization of regional space. The expansion of the biofuel market is a key external factor for the production of pellets made from low-grade wood and forest waste in countries and regions with an appropriate natural, economic and geographical potential. The parameters of the objective trend - transition of Russian regions to bioeconomy, which will allow them not only to increase regional incomes by expanding opportunities for public-private partnership, but also to improve their own competitiveness in the national economy, are outlined. In addition, due to cluster approach, the prerequisites for the formation of regional space network structure are obvious. Methods of logical and substantive, strategic, statistical, regional, technical and economic analysis, as well as content analysis and SWOT analysis are applied in the study.
Financial management as a tool for sustainable development of non-proﬁt sports organizations – analysis of futsal competitions in Eastern Croatia

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

The aim of this paper is to establish the impact of revenue and expenditure management on sports events organized by non-profit sports organizations. The subject of the case study is futsal, a team sport known also as five-a-side football which is popular at the recreational level in the Republic of Croatia, has a long history and relatively low organizational costs. The geographical area of the analysis includes five eastern counties of the Republic of Croatia, while the analyzed format of the competition is the one where teams compete for several months, i.e., an entire season. These are amateur competitions where the goal set by the organizer is the development and popularization of the sport, rather than profit. The primary research included in-depth interviews with responsible persons within county football centers and subsequently the organizers of the competitions being held. After the information was obtained, the revenue and expenditure structure, as well as costs of an individual team per played match, were analyzed. Based on this information, through secondary research, publicly available data on individual costs when organizing a sports competition were obtained, and a projection of a sustainable budget was made by balancing its revenue and expenditure aspects. The analysis of the expenditure structure established fixed and variable costs as well as their effect on project sustainability. In accordance with all the results obtained, the main factors of financial difficulties for the sports organizations organizing such competitions were detected, while the conclusion suggests several specific measures possible for overcoming such difficulties.
Are Emotionally Intelligent Individuals Hypersensitive to Emotions?Testing the Curse of Emotion

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Several years ago the possibility was raised that leaders high in Emotional Intelligence (EI) might be oversensitive to emotions felt by themselves and by others in a way that could compromise their social effectiveness (Antonakis, Ashkanasy, & Dasborough, 2009). In this article, we provide an empirical test of this “curse of emotion” hypothesis and of the hypersensitivity hypothesis, which appears to be its wellspring. We show that high EI individuals were more strongly affected by incidental anger in forming impressions of an ambiguous target (Study 1), and that they amplified the importance of valenced information, which affected their social perception (Study 2). Overall, the results are consistent with the idea that individuals high on EI--in particular the crystallized component of EI, which is essentially what current ability tests of EI measure--are overly sensitive to emotions and emotion information, and that under certain conditions this hypersensitivity can bias social perception. We suggest, however, that the negative effects that appear to be associated with high EI might well fade away if it were possible to take into account the more spontaneous and implicit context-sensitive inhibitory processes that modulate the intensity of emotional responses. Our results speak to the importance of identifying the boundary conditions on the positive effects of EI on organizational outcomes and encourage the introduction of EI measures that tap into the fluid component of EI.

The Interpretation of Human Rights according to International Treaties: Notes for their Jurisdictional Application in Mexico

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The reform of article 1 of the Political Constitution of the Mexican United States in June 2011, has incorporated into the constitutional text the clause of interpretation according to international treaties on human rights as the hermeneutic criteria which domestic judges must adopt in their verdicts. This clause reflects an evolutionary tendency which the Constitutional States are adopting, generating a new understanding of the state function as a whole, especially of the judiciary function. Despite this aperture, which enables the application of this type of hermeneutic techniques, it is possible to see how in some jurisprudential criteria a restraining posture is adopted towards international regulatory contents in human rights, leaving aside the possibility of an interpretative process of harmonization
Evaluation of sodium bentonite and crushed basalt as waste package backfill materials

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

Preliminary hydrothermal experiments were completed at 300/sup 0/C, 300 bars and 200/sup 0/C, 300 bars in the basalt/groundwater system to determine the chemical stability of crushed basalt. Analysis of solution data from the 300/sup 0/C experiments as a function of time and reaction products indicated that the primary reaction was the alteration of the basalt glass phase to illite and/or smectite clays and quartz. The establishment of steady state pH values of about 6, the apparent rapid occurrence of a highly reducing environment in the system, and an insignificant increase in the solution concentration of potentially corrosive aqueous species were observed. These data indicate that a waste package backfill containing a significant amount of crushed basalt will provide a near-field geochemical environment favorable to the chemical stability of metal canister materials. A preliminary experiment was also completed in the sodium bentonite/groundwater system at 300/sup 0/C, 300 bars. Analyses of the reacted solutions and solids show that bentonite remains essentially stable with only minor alterations to albite. Sorption data were generated on crushed basalt, secondary minerals in basalt, and sodium bentonite at 60 to 65/sup 0/C under oxic and anoxic conditions. These data indicate that Cs and Sr will be completely contained in a waste package backfill due to the formation of insoluble secondary minerals, ion exchange, and specific adsorption. Under reducing conditions, Np will be retained beyond 1000 yr and U and Pu will be retained under reducing conditions over 300 yr. An increase in retention time can be expected to occur with an increase in temperature. Theory, calculations, and a limited data base have been used to propose a reference waste package. The backfill component consisting of 25% sodium bentonite and 75% crushed basalt with an initial density of 2.1 g/cm/sup 3/ and a thickness of 0.152 m.
RECOVERIES FROM STAPHYLOCOCCIC MENINGITIS FOLLOWING BACTERIOPHAGE THERAPY

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Before undertaking a more detailed consideration of our patients who suffered from staphylococcic infection of the meninges, we have presented a review of staphylococcic meningitis1as reported in the literature. We were able to find records of 48 acceptable examples of recovery from this disease, a number sufficiently small to indicate the malignant nature of this localization of staphylococcic infection. We plan to discuss now the patients with staphylococcic meningitis for whom we have been privileged to furnish bacteriophage service, including in this discussion not only those who had a recognized invasion of the blood stream, so as to belong in our series of 500 patients with staphylococcemia,2but also patients suffering from meningitis without adequate evidence of staphylococcemia and hence omitted from the series with sepsis. The patients included in this series with staphylococcemia will be designated by their appropriate serial numbers. In the present paper we purpose to
Gate first high-k/metal gate stacks with zero SiO x interface achieving EOT=0.59nm for 16nm application

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Gate first 0.59 nm EOT HfOx/metal gate stacks for 16 nm node application are demonstrated for the first time. By controlling O during HfOx deposition, ldquozerordquo low-k SiOx interface (ZIL) forms despite a 1020degC activation anneal. This 0.59 nm EOT is a 30% improvement over a state of the art 32 nm HK/MG technology. We compare and demonstrate for the first time the improved scalability of ZIL HfOx vs. exotic higher-k. Transistors made with ZIL HfOx show good interfaces (SS=70-80 mV/dec, Nit = 5 times 1010/cm2) and performance (10% Ion-Ioff boost vs. EOT = 0.95 nm), despite mobility loss. Factors contributing to mobility loss in ZIL HfOx are discussed.
Repair of posterior ventricular septal rupture by right atrial approach

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

V entricular septal rupture (VSR) is a serious complication that may occur after myocardial infarction (MI). [1]If left untreated, it will lead to high morbidity and mortality.Although several surgical interventions have been developed, mortality and complications associated with surgical management are still high, especially in terms of transventricular approaches. [2]mong these patients, anterior VSR (66%-78%) and posterior VSR accounted for about 17%-22%. [3]Compared with surgical repair of anterior VSR, the operative mortality of posterior VSR is higher. [4]In this study, we report the case of a patient with posterior VSR that was repaired via the right atrial approach.A 52-year-old male complained of chest tightness for more than half a year after exercise, aggravated for two weeks, and had a history of hypertension.On admission, systolic murmur could be heard between the third and fourth intercostals of the left margin of the sternum.Coronary angiography showed left anterior descending artery (LAD) stenosis (85%), right coronary artery (RCA) stenosis (70%), and distal occlusion of the left circumflex artery branch (Figure 1).Echocardiography showed that interventricular septal perforation was accompanied by left-to-right shunt and mild to moderate mitral regurgitation (Figure 2).It was diagnosed as coronary heart disease and interventricular septal perforation.The patient underwent VSR repair and coronary artery bypass grafting twenty-one days after admission.The median sternal incision was taken, the pericardium was cut and suspended, and part of the pericardium was reserved.It was found that the left atrium and left ventricle were significantly enlarged, and the size of the right atrium and right ventricle was basically normal.
Science AMA Series: I’m Sijbren Otto, professor of Systems Chemistry. Today we would like to talk with you about complex mixtures at the interface between chemistry and biology and how far we have progressed towards making life in a test tube! AMA!

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Hey Reddit! I am Sijbren Otto, joined today by Gaël Schaeffer (postdoc), Andreas Hussain and Jim Ottelé (PhD students) to discuss systems chemistry[1] and synthetic life. You can find a video describing our research here! Back in 2010 we reported a system where self-replicating molecules spontaneously emerge from a complex mixture, via an growth breakage mechanism.[2,3] A few years later, we discovered another system using the same concepts, but where mutations lead to the consecutive emergence of two ‘species’ of replicators, one being the ancestor of the previous one, thus mimicking an important process in biological evolution.[4] This work received a fair amount of attention from the media and from you guys on reddit. Our next challenges are the incorporation of more biological features into artificial systems, such as adaptation, Darwinian evolution or metabolism and compartmentalisation, in order to one day make a chemical system that captures all the essential elements of life!

A Successful Treatment Strategy for Paradoxical Cerebral Embolism Accompanied by Entrapped Thrombus in Patent Foramen Ovale

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

A 73-year-old man was transferred to our hospital with dyspnea and left hemiplegia. The diagnosis of pulmonary embolism, entrapped thrombus in patent foramen ovale (PFO), and internal carotid artery occlusion was made by imaging studies. We decided to perform endovascular treatment without the administration of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) for cerebral embolism because of concern about further embolism caused by fragmented thrombi. After endovascular treatment, he successfully underwent surgical embolectomy for entrapped thrombus in PFO. Endovascular treatment without tPA administration and subsequent surgical embolectomy seems to be a viable treatment strategy for patients with occlusion of the large cerebral artery accompanied by entrapped thrombus in PFO.
Multidimensional cosmology: spatially homogeneous models of dimension 4 1

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

In this paper we classify all 4+1 cosmological models where the spatial hypersurfaces are connected and simply connected homogeneous Riemannian manifolds. These models come in two categories, multiply transitive and simply transitive models. There are in all five different multiply transitive models which cannot be considered as a special case of a simply transitive model. The classification of simply transitive models, relies heavily upon the classification of the four dimensional (real) Lie algebras. For the orthogonal case, we derive all the equations of motion and give some examples of exact solutions. Also the problem of compactification, in context with the Kaluza-Klein mechanism, is addressed.
Role of Granisetron in Reducing Spinal Anesthesia Induced Hypotension during Cesarean Section

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Abstract Background Spinal anesthesia is the preferred method for elective cesarean sections due to considerable risks regarding airway management associated with physiological changes of pregnancy. Although it has been considered as a safe technique, spinal anesthesia has many side effects, including hypotension, bradycardia, nausea, and vomiting. Factors influencing the level and the intensity of block include the injected drug, the level of injection, the needle type, the patient position, and patient characteristics, such as age, height, weight, pregnancy, and spinal anatomy. Objective To evaluate the efficacy of different doses of granisetron, a 5-HT3 receptor inhibitors, on reducing the incidence of hypotension after subarachnoid block for cesarean section. Patients and Methods After obtaining approval from the Research Ethical Committee of Faculty of Medicine, Ain Shams University, and written informed consent this study was conducted in the operating theatres of Ain Shams University Hospitals. Results In our study we compared the effect of different doses of granisetron in reducing the hypotension occurring as a result of spinal anesthesia in parturients undergoing elective LSCS. The result of the study showed that compared to placebo group, there was a reduction in the degree of hypotension in group who was pre-medicated with IV grainsetron, and this reduction was more with increasing the dose of granisetron. Conclusion IV granisetron can be used as a pre-medication to reduce spinal anesthesia induced hypotension in parturients undergoing elective lower section cesarean section.
The Rights and Realities of War-affected Refugee Children and Youth in Quebec: Making Children's Rights Meaningful

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Each year, thousands of children enter Canada, fleeing from countries where there has been armed conflict. In Quebec alone, between 1998 and 2007, 8 of the top 10 source countries for accepted refugees were war-affected nations, representing 34,838 people, including children. Yet, this group has been largely overlooked in Canadian research, policy and service provision. This paper traces the lived realities and resettlement experiences of a sample of war-affected children and youth living in Quebec who arrived accompanied by a parent or caregiver, alone as refugees, or without documented legal status, seeking asylum. Drawing upon in-depth interviews with 22 war-affected youth, the paper considers youth's perspectives on the lasting war-related distress experienced in Canada. The paper critically identifies the impact of the UNCRC on their lives in their countries of origin, in their resettlement to Canada, as well as Canada's role and obligations in meeting the needs and rights of this unique population. The paper concludes with a discussion of the implications for policy and practice, particularly with regard to envisioning ways of better meeting the rights of war-affected children.
Nickel Cobalt Sulfide Double-Shelled Hollow Nanospheres as Superior Bifunctional Electrocatalysts for Photovoltaics and Alkaline Hydrogen Evolution

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Transition metal chalcogenides with hollow nanostructures have been considered as promising substitutes as precious metal electrocatalysts for energy conversion and storage. We synthesized NiCo2S4 double-shelled ball-in-ball hollow spheres (BHSs) via a simple solvothermal route and applied them in both dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) and hydrogen evolution reactions (HERs) at the same time, which were clean and sustainable ways to convert energy. Benefiting from their remarkable structure features and advantageous chemical compositions, NiCo2S4 BHSs composed of tiny crystals possessed large surface area, well-defined interior voids, and high catalytic activity. The DSSC with NiCo2S4 BHSs under 100 mW cm-2 irradiation possessed a power conversion efficiency of 9.49% (Pt, 8.30%). Besides, NiCo2S4 BHSs as a HER catalyst also possessed a small onset overpotential (27.9 mV) and a low overpotential (89.7 mV at 10 mA cm-2) under alkaline conditions. Therefore, this work offers a sensible strategy to synthesize bifunctional electrocatalysts for DSSCs and HERs.
