Does openness and open access policy relate to the success of universities?
2013
This study takes a closer look at the Ranking Web of Universities and Ranking Web of Repositories rankings and tries to examine if there is a connection between these two rankings. Study is done by analyzing the success of University of Jyväskylä and the institutional repository JyX of the University in these rankings. Comparison shows that the JyX archive plays an important role in University’s success especially when analyzing the presence and openness of the University. By analyzing the success of eight European countries in these rankings and cross reading these findings with the development of relative citation impact shown in a report by the Finnish Academy, some interesting common tr…
Un sistema para medir la sostenibilidad integral de los procesos de ordenación del territorio: aplicación práctica a planes generales de ámbito munic…
2015
A mediados de la segunda década de este siglo XXI, puede afirmarse que cualquier formulación en el ámbito del diseño, implementación y evaluación de políticas y programas, en particular cuando hablamos de Ordenación del Territorio, ha incorporado plenamente el término “sostenible” o “sostenibilidad”. Este concepto, con frecuencia mal utilizado o banalizado, se ha convertido en una referencia indispensable cuando se trata de destacar la finalidad o intencionalidad a los que se aspira desde la toma de decisiones. El uso en exceso de cualquier término lo conduce hacia un progresivo desgaste, que lo puede llevar a un mal uso y, en la mayoría de los casos, a una mala interpretación. El concepto …
Do Powerful CEOs Determine Microfinance Performance?
2012
Authors version of an article published in Journal of Management Studies. The definitive version is available from Wiley at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-6486.2012.01046.x Recently, microfinance has been coming under public and media attacks. The microcredit crisis following from microfinance-induced suicides in 2010 in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh indicates that weak corporate governance and imprudent risk taking have far-reaching consequences. Yet, analyses of corporate governance mechanisms among microfinance institutions (MFIs) remain underdeveloped. As a response, this study examines the impact of CEO power on MFI risk taking by deriving explicit predictions of this effect fr…

2020
Introducción. Se considera importante el análisis cienciométrico actualizado en las áreas de investigación sanitaria. El objetivo de esta tesis es identificar mediante indicadores bibliométricos la producción científica, el impacto y los patrones de colaboración y financiación de las revistas de ortodoncia con factor de impacto, indexadas en el Journal Citation Reports durante en el periodo 2006-2017. Material y Métodos. Los datos fueron extraídos de la Web of Science (categoría Dentistry, Oral Surgery and Medicine) procedente de 9 revistas de ortodoncia. Los registros de autores, instituciones, países, descriptores y fuentes de financiación fueron normalizados manualmente para unificar tér…
Global Trends in Scientific Research on Pediatric Obesity
2022
(1) Introduction: The aim of this study was to analyze scientific production, collaboration among countries, and research topics focusing on pediatric obesity. (2) Methods: The papers that were included in the study were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection from Clarivate Analytics. A bibliometric analysis of several focuses, including journals of publication, subject categories, most frequent author keywords, and journal impact factors, was conducted. Social network analysis was used to recognize collaboration groups between countries and the co-occurrences of author keywords. (3) Results: A total of 12,171 research articles were published in 2036 journals classified under a v…
SuperJump training in eumenorrheic women and gut peptides: a randomized controlled study about the mechanism of action on bone and glucose homeostasis
2022
The role played by physical activity in promoting bone health is now widely recognized. Physical activity limits and slows down the physiological demineralization that occurs over the years and plays an important role in the prevention of osteoporosis. SuperJump, a high-impact training activity performed on a mini-trampoline characterized by alternating between aerobic and anaerobic exercises, has been shown to be able to generate a substantial osteogenic response and increase bone balance and strength in eumenorrheic women. In this study it was analyzed whether gastrointestinal peptides play a role in the regulation of bone metabolism and their impact on glucose homeostasis. Methods Using …
Dynamique spatio-temporelle d’un événement extrême froid : impact de la circulation atmosphérique sur les basses températures en Bourgogne viticole.
2020
During April 2019 France experienced several frost events that caused extensive damage to almost all of its winegrowing regions. In Bourgogne-Franche-Comté the frost effects were very punctual and spatially diffused, the greatest damage being observed in the early bud breaking winegrowing sub-regions of Saône-et-Loire and the south of the Côte de Beaune. This study focuses on the multi-scalar analysis of the spring frost event underwent during the night between the 4th and 5th of April on a vineyard plot located in the Hautes Côtes de Beaune appellation. The analysis highlights the impact of local parameters (topography, surface discontinuity, etc.) on the spatio-temporal structuring of tem…
