CSR i jego znaczenie dla kształtowania relacji z klientami - w świetle wyników badań ankietowych
2016
Społeczna Odpowiedzialność Biznesu (CSR) jest nową, dynamicznie rozwijającą się koncepcją zakładającą równowagę między trzema wymiarami – ekonomicznym, społecznym i ekologicznym. Od przedsiębiorstwa oczekuje się nie tylko pomnażania zysków, ale również pełnego spojrzenia na otoczenie i pracowników. Społeczne zaangażowanie to obecnie, poza działalnością charytatywną, odpowiedź na potrzeby społeczności. Najważniejsze jest, by przedsiębiorstwa wdrożyły procesy, dzięki którym względy społeczne, środowiskowe i etyczne oraz kwestie praw człowieka staną się stałym elementem ich działalności i strategii biznesowej.
Jet fragmentation transverse momentum distributions in pp and p-Pb collisions at √s, √sNN = 5.02 TeV
2021
Jet fragmentation transverse momentum (jT) distributions are measured in proton-proton (pp) and proton-lead (p-Pb) collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV with the ALICE experiment at the LHC. Jets are reconstructed with the ALICE tracking detectors and electromagnetic calorimeter using the anti-kT algorithm with resolution parameter R = 0.4 in the pseudorapidity range |η| < 0.25. The jT values are calculated for charged particles inside a fixed cone with a radius R = 0.4 around the reconstructed jet axis. The measured jT distributions are compared with a variety of parton-shower models. Herwig and Pythia 8 based models describe the data well for the higher jT region, while they underestimate the low…
Monitoraggio e valutazione del danno degli insetti defogliatori su diverse specie di Quercus in Sicilia
Most of the insects feeding on oaks are usually ‘in balance’ with their host trees, causing occasional damage. When severe defoliations regularly occur, oak trees vulnerability to the complex of factors causing the overall decline syndrome can increase. Assessing canopy damage due to defoliating insects through the usually adopted visual methods is quite difficult, requiring highly experienced operators and a long time spent to collect field data. The present research has been carried out to investigate the different susceptibility of Sicilian oak species to defoliating insect attacks, in particular the oak moth Tortrix viridana (L.) (Lepidoptera Tortricidae), with the aim to assess the rel…
Antitumor Effect of Cabozantinib in Bone Metastatic Models of Renal Cell Carcinoma
2021
Background: The presence of bone metastases in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) negatively affects patients’ survival. Data from clinical trials has highlighted a significant benefit of cabozantinib in bone metastatic RCC patients. Here, we evaluated the antitumor effect of cabozantinib in coculture models of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and osteoblasts (OBs) to investigate whether and how its antiproliferative activity is influenced by OBs. Methods: Bone/RCC models were generated, coculturing green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged Caki-1 and 786-O cells with human primary OBs in a “cell–cell contact” system. RCC proliferation and the OB molecular profile were evaluated after the cabozantinib treat…
Firm growth and profitability : The role of age and size in shifts between growth–profitability configurations
2023
To investigate the routes toward profitable growth, this study partially replicates and extends the work of Davidsson et al. (2009) on firm growth–profitability dynamics with multi-industry data on over 66,000 Finnish firms. The results support prior findings on initial profitability being more important than initial growth for achieving high performance in both performance dimensions. Additional investigations on the role of firm age and size reveal further interesting dynamics: Very small young firms face fewer risks from growing at a low profitability level than other firms, and the benefits of firm size for future performance depend on the firm's current profitability. The results advan…
The Village of the Year Competition Constructing an Ideal Model of a Rural Community in Finland
2016
The Village Action Association of Finland (SYTY) organizes the Village of the Year competition annually to award active rural communities. The competition has taken place since 1985, but after the village action movement was integrated into Finnish rural policy networks in the 1990s, it also became a part of rural policy instruments. The competition can be considered a governing technique that constructs norms and an ideal model for rural communities to pursue. In this article, I study the representation of an ideal rural community by analysing the criteria of the competition. I also look for changes to see whether the integration of the village action movement into rural policy is reflecte…
Physiological and Molecular Adaptations to Strength Training
2019
High muscle contraction forces that lead to gains in muscle function, size, and strength characterize resistance exercise training. The purpose of this chapter is to outline the adaptations in myofiber size and metabolism that occur by stimuli of hormones and local growth factors, mechanical and metabolic stress of muscle tissue, and myofibrillar disruptions induced by a resistance exercise bout. The chapter will highlight the network of intracellular pathways (including mTOR signaling) that ultimately lead to increases in gene expression and protein synthesis. Accumulation of acute exercise responses by systematic training over time modulate the muscle proteome that can be observed as chan…

Social innovation in a post-conflict setting : examining external factors affecting social service NGOs
2021
While the study of the influence of external environmental factors on non-governmental organizations (NGOs) is well explored in the international development literature, the importance of these factors on NGOs’ transformative roles in a post-conflict development setting remains less understood. Nevertheless, external environmental factors could have a crucial impact on NGOs in such a context, especially when NGOs want to integrate a socially innovative approach into the social services they provide. Using survey data of staff members of social service NGOs from post-conflict Bosnia and Herzegovina (N = 120) and applying resource dependence theory, this study identifies three environmental f…
Uprawnienia zastawnika zastawu rejestrowego w postępowaniu sanacyjnym zastawcy
2022
Opracowanie poświęcone jest zagadnieniu uprawnień zastawnika zastawu rejestrowego w postępowaniu sanacyjnym. Zarówno zastaw rejestrowy jak i postępowanie sanacyjne to instytucje hybrydalne. Na ich tle powstaje zatem szereg interesujących zagadnień prawnych. W opracowaniu omówiono status w postępowaniu sanacyjnym wierzytelności zabezpieczonej zastawem rejestrowym. Wskazano na rolę proceduralną spisu inwentarza i spisu wierzytelności. W dalszej kolejności przedstawiono sposoby zaspokojenia zastawnika. Artykuł odnosi się do kilku zagadnień nie uregulowanych przez ustawodawcę. Po pierwsze, wskazano w nim według jakich założeń powinno się przygotować wycenę przedmiotu zabezpieczenia :czy według …
