Background: The purpose of this analysis was to revisit the open US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) inspection list results from clinical trials and show the possibilities of evaluating inspection results between different world regions and explore what aspects of clinical trial deficiencies are most often reported.Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate inspection results from different re

The global pandemic has initially negatively influenced the financial markets all over the world. As a consequence, the volatility in the stock markets increased and investors have experienced great monetary losses. In addition, the volatility spillover has increased between different markets and assets, which additionally amplifies the negative influence by the pandemic. This motivates the search

Syftet med studien är att fördjupa förståelsen för chefers roll i innovationsprocesser inom unga kunskapsintensiva organisationer, med fokus på deras direkta och indirekta påverkan på innovation. Studien är utförd enligt kvalitativ forskningsstrategi, där insamlingen av data skedde genom intervjuer. Materialet analyserades sedan med hjälp av en innehållsanalys. Teorin grundas i aktuell forskning k

“Upper tail knowledge”, embodied by knowledge elites, has been suggested to be a driving force of industrialization and development, yet measuring it remains problematic. Despite some recent innovations, much empirical work continues to rely on measures of “average” or “non-upper tail” human capital such as literacy and years of schooling. We thus turn to perhaps unique sources from Denmark and No

The aim was to describe what parents and staff think about child health care, to identify agreements and disagreements. A qualitative study was made with semi-structured interviews based on a phenomenographic approach. Sixty parents, 14 nurses and six doctors from southern Sweden were interviewed. Parents and staff emphasized two tasks as being of particular importance: support and check-ups. Ther

We compare Value at Risk estimates from an AR(1)-GARCH(1,1) model with t- or normally distributed innovations, to estimates from an AR(1)-GARCH(1,1) model where the Peak-Over-Threshold method is applied to the tails of the innovations. Using the Christoffersen backtest, we find that the performance of the second type of model is superior to the first, particularly at high confidence levels for the

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to compare different methods to predict acute coronary syndrome (ACS) using only data from a single electrocardiogram (ECG) in the emergency department (ED). METHOD: We compared the ACS prediction abilities of classical ECG criteria, human expert ECG interpretation, a logistic regression model and an artificial neural network ensemble (ANN). The ED ECG and d

During the last century (1900s) industrialized forms of agriculture and human activities have caused eutrophication of Baltic Sea waters. As a consequence, the hypoxic zone in the Baltic Sea has increased, especially during the last 50 years, and has caused severe ecosystem disturbance. Climate forcing has been proposed to be responsible for the reported trends in hypoxia (< 2 mg/l O-2) both durin

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to examine how the entry of Generation Z in the workforce might affect the future of employer branding. This paper analyzes how employer branding is done currently and the differences between Gen Z and its preceding generations. Managerial suggestions on how to effectively approach Gen Z in terms of employer branding are given. Methodology: In this paper a

Despite growing awareness of human trafficking, research has yet to explore whether attitudes and knowledge about this issue are affected by gender. This study fills that gap by analyzing gender differences in public perceptions of human trafficking using a nationally representative U.S. sample (N = 776). The findings reveal that women are more likely than men to associate human trafficking with a

Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems attract a high attention and open source software does it as well. The question is then if, and if so, when do open source ERP systems take off. The paper describes the status of open source ERP systems. Based on literature review of ERP system selection criteria based on Web of Science articles, it discusses reported reasons for choosing open source or p
