Does a Female Leadership Influence Staff Satisfaction in Microfinance Institutions?
2018
Master's thesis Business Administration BE501 - University of Agder 2018 The purpose of this study was to obtain a better understanding of whether or not a female CEO influences staff satisfaction in MFIs. The microfinance industry has faced rapid growth and stiffer competition in recent decades, where the main MFI challenge being the loss of important and competent staff. Managers should, to prevent staff from leaving their jobs, ensure that the staff is satisfied with the workplace. In this study, a final data set with 225 MFIs from 59 countries in the time period from 2003 to 2015 was applied to the data analyses. A multiple regression model was carried out, findings showing that a femal…
Felles mentale modeller i elite teamidretter : en undersøkelse av relasjonen mellom felles mentale modeller, rolletvetydighet og teamprestasjon
2013
Masteroppgave i idrettsvitenskap - Universitetet i Agder 2013 Studiens formål var å undersøke relasjonen mellom felles mentale modeller, rolleklarhet og teamprestasjoner i elite idrettsteam. Cannon-Bowers, Salas og Converse (1993) mener team med felles mentale modeller vil ha lettere for å koordinere og tilpasse handlinger etter oppgavekravene, og ifølge Reimer et al. (2006) har utøvere med felles mentale modeller klare og felles forventinger om hvilken atferd som er forventet fra seg selv og sine teammedlemmer. Derfor var det forventet at felles mentale modeller kunne relateres til rolleklarhet og teamprestasjoner. Det ble utarbeidet fire hypoteser for å undersøke studiens formål. 231 elit…
El laberinto de la sucesión de estados respecto de los tratados internacionales sobre derechos humanos
2021
This Article analyses the effects of succession of States in respect of international treaties on human rights. This is a matter not codified by the Vienna Convention on Succession of States in respect of Treaties. We have to bear in mind that human rights treaties have been adopted by international organisations, which have developed their own practice both for the succession of States as States Members of an international organisation and for the succession of States as Contracting Parties to treaties that the United Nations, the Council of Europe or the European Union have adopted in the field of human rights.
Identification and evaluation of antimicrobial resistance of enterococci isolated from raw ewes’ and cows’ milk collected in western Sicily: a prelim…
2019
The present work was carried out to investigate the Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) of enterococci isolated from raw ewes’ and cows’ milk. The samples were collected from eighteen semi-extensive dairy sheep and cow farms throughout western Sicily. Plate counts, carried out on Rapid Enterococcus Agar commonly used to detect food enterococci, revealed a maximal enterococcal concentration of approximately 4.58 Log Colony Forming Unit (CFU)/mL. Colonies were isolated and differentiated based on genetic analysis by Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-PCR. Thirty-eight different strains were identified. Analysis by a species-specific multiplex PCR assay grouped the strains into three Enteroc…

Hypoxia Positively Regulates the Expression of pH-Sensing G-Protein–Coupled Receptor OGR1 (GPR68)
2016
Background & Aims: A novel family of proton-sensing G-proteinâcoupled receptors, including ovarian cancer G-proteinâcoupled receptor 1 (OGR1) (GPR68) has been identified to play a role in pH homeostasis. Hypoxia is known to change tissue pH as a result of anaerobic glucose metabolism through the stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α. We investigated how hypoxia regulates the expression of OGR1 in the intestinal mucosa and associated cells. Methods: OGR1 expression in murine tumors, human colonic tissue, and myeloid cells was determined by quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. The influence of hypoxia on OGR1 expression was studied in monocytes/macrophages and…
Obtaining and Characterisation of Starch-Based Edible Films Incorporating Honey, Propolis and Bee Bread
2019
Abstract This research investigates the physical-chemical, sensorial and mechanical characteristics of starch-based edible films incorporating three types of bee hive products: honey, propolis and bee bread, in concentrations varying from 1% to 3%, reported to starch. The results indicates an increasing of films moisture, water activity, ash content and acidity, in the order: honey<propolis<bee bread, all values increasing with the increasing of hive products percentage into the control film; aw is remaining at very low values, under 0.4. Sensorial analysis indicated honey as the better suited for improving taste and flavour and bee bread for increasing colour intensity of the films; …
Biological and technical complications of tilted implants in comparison with straight implants supporting fixed dental prostheses. A systematic revie…
2018
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the implant failure, marginal bone loss (MBL), and other biological or technical complications of restorations supported by tilted and straight implants after at least 3 years in function. METHODS Electronic and manual searches were performed in MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and OpenGrey to identify clinical studies published up to December 2017. After duplicate study selection and data extraction, the risk of bias was assessed with the ROBINS-I tool. Random-effects meta-analyses of relative risks (RRs) or mean differences (MD) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were performed, followed by subgroup/sensitivity analyses and application of the GRADE approach. R…
