Classification and risk stratification of endometrial carcinoma (EC) has transitioned from histopathological features to molecular classification, e.g. the ProMisE classifier, identifying four prognostic subtypes: POLE mutant (POLEmut) with almost no recurrence or disease-specific death events, mismatch repair deficient (MMRd) specific profile (NSMP), intermediate outcome p53 abnormal (p53abn) poor outcomes. However, applicability classification is unclear in rare but aggressive histotypes...
Abstract A long-term goal for warning-message designers is to determine the most effective type of message that can instruct individuals act quickly and prevent loss life and/or injury when faced with an imminent threat. One likely way increase individual’s behavioral intent they are risk information provide protective action or guidance. This study investigated participant perceptions (understanding, believing, personalizing, deciding, milling, self-efficacy, response efficacy) in National...
Biomarkers reflecting real-time response to therapy and recurrence are lacking. We assessed the clinical value of detecting cell-free circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) mutations in endometrial cancer (EC) ovarian (OC) patients.
Abstract Scholars have produced several theories and models to explain why individuals adjust hazards. While findings from these studies are informative, not considered how threat coping appraisals may differential effects on varying types of hazard adjustments, or generalize vulnerable populations. This study expands the Protection Motivation Theory explore factors that shape adjustment intentions among college students, a population traditionally defined as vulnerable, in response tornado...
Disasters are increasing in both number and severity. Thus, effective emergency response is becoming increasingly important to lessen human economic impacts from disasters. Little research has been performed, however, on how leaders influence the attitudes of responders that motivate them toward increased performance overall effectiveness. Using survey data two separate fire departments, this study explores relationships between distributive procedural justice, affective outcomes...
Purpose While uncertainty during emergency response operations necessitates adaptive performance, organizations, such as the fire service, tend to constrain behaviors due their highly formalized bureaucratic structures. Structural theories suggest that leaders can empower employees bypass these constraints. Design/methodology/approach Using survey data from four US departments, this research tests whether mid-level supervisors firefighters by increasing ability improvise complex operations,...
Poor performing fire departments are often attributed to managerial deficiencies such as ineffective communication, training, and absence of relevant standard operating guidelines. Despite this, research on HRM in the service is lacking. Adopting a social exchange approach, we test serial mediation model which contends that can enhance performance levels by adopting High-Performance Human Resource Practices (HPHRPs), influence organizational success through intermediate employee attitudes...
This study explores household-level evacuation decision-making in response to Hurricane Laura, a context where hurricane risk reduction measures contradicted COVID-19 measures. Data were collected using mail-based survey approach from households along the coast of Texas and Louisiana explore drivers barriers evacuation, including such as negative affect, perceptions, protective actions, exposure. Testing for direct indirect effects among we find that many our did not have effect on but...
A significant amount of research has been devoted to understanding the benefits both organizational and team identification. However, processes outlined in social identity theory that are typically framed a positive light because they encourage behavior group (i.e., internalization norms) can just as easily have negative effects. In this study we examine dark side identification by proposing moderated-mediation model wherein interaction between masculinity contest culture results maladaptive...
