In monitoring a patient's real-time vital signs through Body Area Networks (BAN), rich data sources are communicated to medical practitioners. The benefit of BANs may be negated if practitioners overloaded with streams BAN data. It is essential that delivered in timely conte
To understand what organizations do which brings about successful digital transformation (DX), a review of representative literature was performed. From total 89 articles, 16 single-case articles sufficiently documented end-to-end DX success stories 10 exemplar we selected. Within case content analysis and asking the questions analytical procedure were employed to code each case, where 174 attributes found. Making comparisons build thematic higher-level categories by grouping similar...
Abstract This study investigates whether accelerators attract the highest‐performing FinTech ventures. Drawing on countersignalling theory, we present a model of accelerator participation that predicts high‐quality ventures will avoid programmes. Using unique financial reporting dataset participants and propensity score‐matched sample comparison firms, find support for prediction from our model. have worse performance, both before after completing programme, when compared to peer...
ABSTRACT Water delivered by dental unit water systems (DUWS) in general practices can harbor high numbers of bacteria, including opportunistic pathogens. Biofilms on tubing within DUWS provide a reservoir for microorganisms and should be controlled. This study compared disinfection products their ability to meet the American Dental Association's guideline <200 CFU · ml −1 water. Alpron, BioBlue, Dentosept, Oxygenal, Sanosil, Sterilex Ultra, Ster4Spray were tested ( n = 134) Denmark,...

Abstract Unforeseen events (e.g., COVID-19, the Russia-Ukraine conflict) create significant challenges for accurately predicting CO2 emissions in airline industry. These severely disrupt air travel by grounding planes and creating unpredictable, ad hoc flight schedules. This leads to many missing data points quality issues emission datasets, hampering accurate prediction. To address this issue, we develop a predictive analytics method forecast using unique dataset of monthly from 29,707...
Interleukin-16 (IL-16) activates CD4<sup>+</sup> cells, possibly by direct interaction with CD4.
