It employed qualitative content analysis to present the research profile, prominent conceptual, qualitative and quantitative studies, research gaps and future research questions. The review results indicate that research on CSR in tourism is a promising area of study that is growing rapidly. This review captures conceptual, qualitative and quantitative empirical studies and divides them into themes based on two typologies. Typology 1 addresses the direct effect of CSR on employees, customers and business performance. Typology 2 highlights the mode…
A review of studies using the Körperkoordinationstest für Kinder (KTK)
2015
The Körperkoordinationstest für Kinder (KTK) (Kiphard & Schilling, 1974, 2007) is a standardized, norm-referenced measure used by physical therapists and occupational therapists in clinic and school practice settings to evaluate the motor coordination (MC) of 5- to 14-year-old children. To find out for which research purposes the KTK has been used and its reliability and validity, we conducted a systematic review.

Urban drinking and driving:comparison of electric scooter and bicycle related accidents in facial fracture patients
2022
In recent years, electric scooters (e-scooter) have emerged as an alternative mode of urban transport due to their availability and effortless use. However, e-scooter-related trauma and injuries, especially to the head, have received wide media coverage and raised public concern about their safety. We aim to determine and compare clinically relevant variables, incidence, and severity between bicycle and e-scooter-related facial fractures and potential protective measures for injury prevention. This retrospective study comprised all patients admitted to a tertiary trauma center with bicycle or e-scooter-related facial fractures between January 2019 and October 2020. Patient- and injury-relat…

2017
Choroby naczyniowe mózgu o podłożu udarowym dotyczą milionów osób na całym świecie, a roczny odsetek zachorowalności stale rośnie. W dobie społeczeństwa starzejącego się i cierpiącego na liczne czynniki ryzyka, w szczególności te modyfikowalne, udary mózgu oraz następowe porażenie mięśni w wyniku uszkodzenia struktur składowych górnego neuronu ruchowego będzie coraz to poważniejszym problem dla całego systemu opieki zdrowotnej. Skuteczne postępowanie lecznicze i fizjoterapeutyczne w przypadku utrwalonej spastyczności poudarowej, zarówno w okresie ostrym, jak i przewlekłym, stanowi nadal istotny problem medyczny o charakterze interdyscyplinarnym. Opieka nad tego typu pacjentem staje się swoi…

Le decisioni di co-branding: un'analisi ragionata della letteratura e nuovi percorsi di ricerca
2021
Abstract Obiettivi. Una decisione fondamentale nell’ambito del marketing strategico riguarda l’associazione di due brand per la promozione di un unico prodotto. Per questa ragione, non sorprende che, negli ultimi decenni, gli studi internazionali abbiano ampiamente esplorato gli antecedenti della decisione di co-branding nonché le differenze in termini di risultati tra i due brand alleati. L’ampio numero di studi sul co-brand, le molteplici prospettive teoriche e approcci empirici fanno emergere l’opportunità di riassumere lo stato dell’arte sul co-brand e, facendo leva sui risultati, presentare una agenda strutturata per futuri studi. Metodologia. Sviluppiamo un’analisi sistematica della l…
