SUMMARY There is recognition that competition shifting from a “firm versus firm perspective” to “supply chain supply perspective.” In response this shift, firms seeking competitive advantage are participating in cooperative arrangements, such as strategic alliances, which combine their individual strengths and unique resources. Buyer‐supplier sourcing relationships primary focus of alliance improvement efforts. While interest arrangements remains strong, it well accepted creating,...
Effective treatments for patients with severe COVID-19 are needed.To evaluate the efficacy of canakinumab, an anti-interleukin-1β antibody, in hospitalized COVID-19.This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial was conducted at 39 hospitals Europe and United States. A total 454 pneumonia, hypoxia (not requiring invasive mechanical ventilation [IMV]), systemic hyperinflammation defined by increased blood concentrations C-reactive protein or ferritin were enrolled between...
Abstract Managing the return flow of product is increasingly recognized as a strategically important activity that involves decisions and actions within across firms. We focus specifically on returns management at marketing–operations interface, by utilizing conceptualization customer value its related drivers. In order to explore phenomenon multi‐disciplinary, managerial spectrum, qualitative research methodology relying individual managers’ perceptions was chosen generate depth...
To further investigate a proposed relationship between Chlamydia pneumoniae and coronary heart disease, atheromas were collected from patients undergoing percutaneous atherectomy. Fifty-eight atheroma specimens examined by culture polymerase chain reaction (PCR) 22 electron microscopy. All negative for C. pneumoniae, except single specimen that was PCR-positive. These results differ studies in other populations, which this organism identified nonculture methods within obtained at autopsy....
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to consider theory development related returns management within supply chain strategy. marketing/logistics relationship relative the process investigated. Design/methodology/approach Grounded qualitative methodology. Managers in five Italian firms, across marketing and logistics roles, at strategic operational levels were interviewed. Findings Four key findings emerged: strong evidence exists that goals policies are being implemented; cross‐functional...
The authors examine and take stock of the changing nature landscape surrounding supply chain management, related disciplines purchasing, operations logistics marketing channels distribution. They identify, describe synthesize research in those academic that are identified to be some objectives with respect management's integration goals. Their examination highlights considerable evolution significant advances occurring within among these disciplines. Additionally, they find this new provide...
It is generally acknowledged that information exchange plays an important role in strategic alliances. However, little known with respect to the perceptions each alliance partner has concerning as well how measure these perceptions. Key managers and executives food health personal care industries North America participated a mail survey investigate phenomena. The approach used dyadic research design identify key elements of impact satisfaction. Based on partner's channel position buyer...
This paper examines the use of various research methods by contemporary researchers. The previous six years articles in a leading logistics journal are examined and classified. analysis seeks to identify discuss changes trends that occurring such methods, as well considering why current conditions place, what, if any, opportunities exist for researchers given this situation.
Purpose The paper seeks to examine the changing landscape of supply chain management, marketing channels distribution, logistics and purchasing. Design/methodology/approach authors take stock nature surrounding related disciplines This examination highlights considerable evolution significant advances occurring within between these disciplines. Findings find that this new provides both opportunities challenges for future scholarship practice in Originality/value findings should be value...
Despite multiple decades of previous research, cross‐functional integration (CFI) remains a poorly understood concept. We argue for definitional clarity to differentiate CFI from other related concepts, such as interfirm or supply chain integration. also theoretical grounding provide context understanding the role within firm well between firms. This article provides foundation researchers move forward in creating broader focal construct interest domain.
Observes that strategic alliances continue to be an important research and business focus. Many firms struggle with how link alliance theory actual practice. In particular, managers question long‐term commitment between partners is developed achieved. Traditional practice has relied primarily on formal written contracts, but informal social contracts or verbal agreements are also utilized. Examines the role of in positioning for success. Findings indicate extremely successful exhibited...
Efficient Consumer Response (ECR) is an industry‐wide initiative that commonly believed to have fallen far short of its promised efficiencies and value. Many believe unrealistic expectations among grocery industry participants are primarily at fault for this shortcoming. The level internal external change required make desired outcomes a reality been underestimated poorly understood by prospective participants. While has slower than desired, many firms collaborated effectively achieved...
BACKGROUND: Radiation exposure is one of the most adverse occupational hazards faced by interventional cardiologists. Various arterial access sites have shown to yield different operator radiation during diagnostic cardiac catheterization. METHODS: This single-center randomized controlled trial assessed cumulative and normalized at 4 anatomic locations (thorax, abdomen, left eye, right eye) primary when using radial artery (LRA) approach compared with a uniform hyper-adducted (HARRA)...
Abstract Outsourcing has become popular in management literature and practice. The way which it is implemented, however, differs from one organization to another. This makes our understanding of the concept very difficult because outsourcing means different things organizations situations. One reason for this confusion may be lack established theoretical frameworks evaluating organizations' decisions their application impact on logistics. article applies multiple social science perspectives...
Purpose While remanufactured products represent an increasingly researched phenomenon in the literature, not much is known about consumers' understanding and acceptance of such products. This study explores this issue context theory perceived risk (TPR), investigating return policy leniency distribution channel choice as potential factors to foster products' sales. Design/methodology/approach research utilizes experimental design composed a pre-test scenario-based main experiment explore how...
The absolute white blood cell (WBC) count and neutrophil to lymphocyte (N/L) ratio are predictors of death/myocardial infarction in patients who have undergone coronary angiography. We hypothesized that a pre-procedural elevated WBC an N/L would be predictor development significant ventricular arrhythmias subjects undergoing percutaneous intervention (PCI).We retrieved the data for all developing arrhythmia during PCI between 1999 2009 from our cath lab database (from 30,798 records), total...
Abstract Aims Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) has become increasingly recognized. It accounts for <1-4% of acute syndrome presentations. Overall, however, it makes up over 40% pregnancy-associated myocardial infarction. Furthermore, spontaneous (P-SCAD) is described to have a greater degree clinical manifestations, including left ventricular dysfunction, shock, and main or multivessel involvement. The findings are disconcerting, though many studies evaluating P-SCAD...
Abstract Arterial puncture sites after cardiac catheterization are a troublesome cause of complications. Closure devices have been developed to improve on patient comfort and safety. We evaluated suture‐mediated closure device, the Prostar‐Plus in consecutive population over 10,001 diagnostic interventional catheterizations. A significantly higher complication rate was noted for both major minor complications patients treated with device compared manual compression (2.6% 4.6% treatment group...
