Lifestyle Changes for the Treatment of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease - A 2015-19 Update.
2020
Background: Lifestyle interventions aimed at weight loss have been associated with improved liver enzymes, reduced intrahepatic triglyceride content, and improved histology (including reduced fibrosis stage). Objective: To revise the evidence on the beneficial effects of lifestyle changes accumulated since 2015, following the publication of the pivotal Cuban experience with histologic outcome. Methods: A PubMed search covering the period 2015 to July 2019 was carried out. All retrieved references were analyzed and double-checked by authors. Results: 20 new studies were identified; in addition, two relevant studies provided new evidence. Thirteen studies were classified as randomized, contr…
Does Animation Facilitate Comprehension of Public Information Graphics? Evidence from Eye Tracking.
2011
Graphic information displays have the potential to communicate public information in situations where normal announcement types are ineffective. This study used eye tracking techniques to analyze comprehension mechanism of event-related information on railway traffic disruptions presented via different graphic formats. One hundred thirteen participants were asked to understand and compare series of traffic disruption messages delivered via three purely visual formats. Animated displays were the most effective presentation type. Eye tracking data showed why an animation facilitates comprehension: it enhances processing strategies which provide the best condition for segmenting the causal cha…
Carbon monoxide detection
2019
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a particularly toxic gas, and the CO poisoning is the leading cause of fatal poisoning in the world. One solution to deal with this dangerous gas is to exploit the advantages given to us by the applications and the technology advances in internet of things (IoT). In this context, we propose to integrate carbon monoxide detection objects to the internet, as part of civil protection intervention applications in case of detection of carbon monoxide to avoid poisoning. To do this, we propose a typical IoT architecture to manage the alerts sent to civil protection in the event of detection of carbon monoxide (CO). The architecture is based on the Message Queue Telemetry T…
Naturalistic study on the usage of smartphone applications among Finnish drivers
2018
We present results from a naturalistic study that tracked how Finnish drivers use their smartphones while on the move. We monitored 30 heavy in-car smartphone users in Finland during June–September 2016, recording the times that they used their phones, the application used at the time of touch (calls excluded), the location and driving speed. Touches per time unit were used as a proxy for estimating visual-manual distraction due to visual-manual tasks. Our data set allows the determining of whether drivers use their phones differently on varying road types (highway, main road, local rural road, urban road). We found that the road type has an effect on phone use but the effect is contrary to…
The Antecedents of Consumers’ Negative Attitudes Toward SMS Advertising: A Theoretical Framework and Empirical Study
2013
Short message service (SMS) advertising refers to the transmission of advertising via mobile phones in the form of text-based messages (Haghirian, Madlberger, and Tanuskova 2005). Recent marketing research indicates that investigations on consumers’ attitudes toward SMS advertising are limited, and empirical examination of antecedents that negatively influence attitudes toward SMS advertising is even scarcer. As a consequence of this lack of knowledge, current practices of mobile advertising might be ineffective. This research examines irritation, privacy concerns, and intrusiveness perception as main factors that provoke a negative attitude toward SMS advertising. Using structural equation…
Effects of message appeal and service type in CSR communication strategies
2015
Abstract Studies highlight the importance of corporate social responsibility (CSR) for companies' stakeholders. Consumers, however, are often unaware of such initiatives. Understanding how to effectively communicate socially responsible initiatives is an important challenge for both researchers and managers, who invest considerable resources in CSR initiatives. This study examines consumers' responses to two types of CSR initiatives (environment-related and employee-based) using two types of message appeals (emotional and rational) across two service types (hedonic and utilitarian). Responses provide data on consumers' awareness of CSR initiatives, attitudes toward the company, perceived co…
The effects of message framing in CSR advertising on consumers’ emotions, attitudes, and behavioral intentions
2022
While recent research on sustainability communication demonstrates the relevance of message framing, research on the effects of message framing on consumers' emotions is scant. Using the Stimulus-Organism-Response (5-0-R) framework, this paper examines the impact of environmental advertisements (stimuli) on two discrete emotions - hope and guilt - (organism) and how these emotions influence consumers' behavioral intentions (responses). Relying on the prospect theory, this study focuses on positive (gain) and negative (loss) frames. Study 1 shows that, in the context of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), a gain message elicits hope while a loss-message triggers guilt. Study 2 shows that …
X-stream CSD atbalsts Vērtspapīru uzskaites sistēmā
2015
Bakalaura darba mērķis ir novērtēt Vērtspapīru uzskaites sistēmas ziņojumu apmaiņas ar X-stream CSD sistēmas ieviešanas iespējamību, apskatīt ierobežojumus un ieviešanas prasības. Papildus nepieciešams novērtēt esošo situāciju un X-stream CSD atbalsta ieviešanas Vērtspapīru uzskaites sistēmā potenciālās priekšrocības un ieguvumus. Sekundārie bakalaura darba mērķi ir iegūt plašākas zināšanas par ISO 20022 standartu un NASDAQ OMX piedāvātā X-stream CSD risinājuma iespējām un metodēm, kuru izmantošana ļauj veikt atbalsta ieviešanu Vērtspapīru uzskaites sistēmā. Pēc darbā aprakstītās realizācijas ir jāspēj veikt X-stream CSD atbalsta ieviešanu Vērtspapīru uzskaites sistēmā.
