Recent research has brought to the fore vital discussions about the logics andassumptions used to evaluate the significance and effectiveness of leadershipdevelopment programs and practices (Vongswasdi et al., 2023). In this chapter,we extend these discussions by reviewing research that considers the logics andassumptions—especially the assumptions about gender and leadership—thatfunction to frame
Kawasaki disease is an important differential diagnosis when evaluating prolonged fever in childhood. Although the aetiology of this vasculitic disease process remains obscure, prompt recognition and treatment significantly reduces vascular complications such as coronary artery aneurysms. Patients presenting with atypical or incomplete diagnostic features remain a challenge. Here the authors descr
This study offers novel insights into how team structure and flexibility affect pivoting. It details how founding team coordination practices shape individual and collective sensemaking of feedback and efforts to improve a venture idea. Following seven founding teams, we identified how teams with overlapping responsibilities enjoyed the flexibility of both fragmented and holistic sensemaking. This
The evolutionary biologist Julian Huxley (1887–1975) attempted to promote a “religion for the future,” which he would come to refer to as Transhumanism. Transhumanism was an attempt to unite a more traditional humanistic view of the human as containing some form of core essence or potential with an evolutionary point of view of humans as a work in progress. Before humans, natural selection had bee
The environmental impact from shipping is driven by the combustion of fossil fuel. It has great potential to be reduced by use of structures in lightweight fibre reinforced polymer composite instead of steel. This has not been possible for ships regulated under SOLAS, since assessment of fire safety of such a fundamental change is complex. The purpose of this thesis has been to provide for the ass
Detailed longitudinal dynamics simulations may be used to predict the energy performance of road vehicles. However, including uncertainty in the operating conditions often implies high computational costs. Model-based formulations, in conjunction with statistical methods, may obviate this limitation by directly accounting for stochasticity, thus eliminating the need for simulating large population
Implementing FEFO practices has become essential for organizations globally to minimize spoilage, enhance inventory turnover, and ensure compliance with health and safety standards. To aid stakeholders in effectively adopting FEFO, it is crucial to identify and address the challenges involved in its implementation. Through an extensive literature review using the Preferred Reporting Items for Syst
According to the literature, transaction costs are influenced by several factors, ranging from institutional differences to asymmetric information. However, testing these hypotheses requires rich data not usually available in historical sources. In this study, we use a large-scale census of 1749 to analyze price gaps of wheat across rural municipalities and their local markets in Old Castile. For
Inte bara Investor och Telia – under de senaste tio åren har antalet börsnoterade svenska företag med minst 100 000 ägare växt från 8 till 28. Vad innebär det att de så kallade folkaktierna i dag utgör en så stor del av vår privatekonomi?
Periodic splines represent a specific category of splines, defined across a series of knots on a circle, making them particularly suitable for addressing interpolation challenges associated with closed curves and representing functions defined on a circle. Although the term ‘periodic’ suggests temporal context, the periodic splines can represent any data that have a circle as their domain. This pa
This thesis investigates the application of microscopic traffic data derived from video recordings to analyse the behaviour of road users, specifically focusing on pedestrians and cyclists in urban traffic environments. This research addresses the critical need for more accurate and proactive methods in the fields of traffic safety, transport system operational performance, and level of service as
INTRODUCTION: The Alzheimer's Association and the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging convened a multidisciplinary workgroup to update appropriate use criteria (AUC) for amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) and to develop AUC for tau PET. METHODS: The workgroup identified key research questions that guided a systematic literature review on clinical amyloid/tau PET. Building on
