Public logistics in management of medical entities (hospitals)
2014
The problem of public/social logistics application opportunities has been discussed in this paper. The public/social logistics is understood as the application of public objectives by the external entities within medical entities. There has been undertaken an attempt of showing that the greatest potential of costs reduction and processes diminishing in a hospital occurs in the logistics sphere. It has been indicated that the development of public logistics resulting, first of all, from the budget constraints is a kind of a panacea for the processes diminishing and the medical services effectiveness increase.

Innovations in Logistics and Supply Chains in the Light of the Global Patenting Activity
2017
Innovative activity in the sphere of logistics and supply chains carried out by many entities is reflected in the registered patents and in the commercialization of the results of basic and applied research. Observation of these activities can reveal the direction of further evolution of logistics and supply chain transformation. Business patents portfolios or R&D activities, including those supported by public funds reveal what the main actors in the innovation market see as technological gaps in the sphere of logistics and supply chain. It also unveils their patented (protected in the form of patent) solutions that are currently available – initially as high-capacity solutions and as a ma…
Logistyka jako koncepcja i determinanta zarządzania - śladami aktywności naukowej Profesora Piotra Blaika
2022
Logistyka pełni ważną rolę w zarządzaniu. Jest ona zarówno istotnym obszarem nauk o zarządzaniu i jakości, jak i instrumentem kształtowania konkurencyjności przedsiębiorstw oraz łańcuchów i sieci dostaw. Artykuł ma charakter przeglądowy. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie najważniejszych problemów badawczych podejmowanych przez Profesora Piotra Blaika, związanych z logistyką jako koncepcją i determinantą zarządzania. W pracach autorstwa Profesora logistyka jest postrzegana przede wszystkim jako koncepcja zarządzania przepływami materiałów, towarów i informacji, a także jako determinanta zmian w systemie zarządzania przedsiębiorstwem. Takie podejście do istoty logistyki nadal jest w Polsce r…
Rola logistyki miasta w kształtowaniu przestrzeni publicznej na przykładzie Opola
2019
Jedną z podstawowych funkcji miasta jest zapewnienie mieszkańcom obszaru do rekreacji, wypoczynku i zacieśniania więzi społecznych. Obecnie szybki rozwój terenów zurbanizowanych utrudnia aranżowanie przyjaznych przestrzeni publicznych. Sposobem na ich stworzenie mogą stać się narzędzia i rozwiązania wypracowane w ramach logistyki miasta, która jako jeden z celów przyjmuje zaspokajanie potrzeb mieszkańców, podkreślając znaczenie miasta jako organizacji społecznej. Celem niniejszego opracowania jest identyfikacja roli logistyki w kreowaniu przestrzeni publicznej na obszarze zurbanizowanym.
Projekty logistyki miasta – metoda szacunkowa oceny ryzyka
2017
W artykule przedstawiono zagadnienia projektów w obszarze logistyki miasta, które realizowane są nie tylko w warunkach niepewności, ale także ograniczeń budżetowych. Wskazano, że dążenie do równoważenia nakładów i efektów stwarza konieczność oceny zasadności projektu oraz ryzyka związanego z realizacją przyjętych celów w zakresie czasu, kosztu, zakresu i jakości inwestycji. Jednak brak obowiązku ustawowego oceny ryzyka skłania do poszukiwania takich metod, które nie będą generowały dodatkowych kosztów i dostarczą szybkich wyników, dlatego w artykule zaprezentowano metodę szacunkową oceny ryzyka projektów, bazującą na subiektywnych ocenach ekspertów. Wskazano jej główne zalety i pokazano pro…
Financial inclusion and exclusion across Mexican municipalities
2021
Although in recent years there has been a growth in banking services in Mexico, there is still a significant delay in terms of financial inclusion, which is also very uneven across municipalities. In this context, this paper analyses some of the factors that determine the probability of a municipality being financially included. The results show that financially included municipalities have a large number of inhabitants and high levels of income and education. The analysis also distinguishes between municipalities according to the region in which they are located and to their type of population. In general, rural and in transition municipalities are the least financially included, together …
Comparison of machine learning and logistic regression as predictive models for adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes of preeclampsia: A retrospecti…
2022
IntroductionPreeclampsia, one of the leading causes of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality, demands accurate predictive models for the lack of effective treatment. Predictive models based on machine learning algorithms demonstrate promising potential, while there is a controversial discussion about whether machine learning methods should be recommended preferably, compared to traditional statistical models.MethodsWe employed both logistic regression and six machine learning methods as binary predictive models for a dataset containing 733 women diagnosed with preeclampsia. Participants were grouped by four different pregnancy outcomes. After the imputation of missing values, statistic…
The renaissance of tramways and urban redevelopment in France
2017
Abstract Tramways have made a remarkable comeback in France since the 1980s. An organization of public transport based on the decentralized administration system set up in the early 1980s has allowed local urban authorities to make their own choices to develop public transport networks in the context of automobile domination. As in many other countries, worries about fossil fuel dependency and demands concerning sustainable urban development appear as strong elements in favour of urban light rail. However, in France, tramways are not just technical solutions for traffic congestion, they have also become a symbol of a cultural mutation in urban development planning. Coupled with a national p…
Addiction-Like Mobile Phone Behavior – Validation and Association With Problem Gambling
2018
Mobile phone use and its potential addiction has become a point of interest within the research community. The aim of the study was to translate and validate the Test of Mobile Dependence (TMD), and to investigate if there are any associations between mobile phone use and problem gambling. This was a cross-sectional study on a Swedish general population. A questionnaire consisting of a translated version of the TMD, three problem gambling questions (NODS-CLiP) together with two questions concerning previous addiction treatment was published online. Exploratory factor analysis based on polychoric correlations was performed on the TMD. Independent samples T-tests, Mann-Whitney test, logistic …
