An Application of the Scorecard Tool to Measure Corporate Governance Quality: Empirical Study in a transition country

Foundations of Management
Nowadays, the corporate governance quality (CGQ) of a company has become increasingly important as it is the benchmark for the investment decision-making process. However, there are not many studies of CGQ in the Vietnamese public sector. In this regard,

Soft Probes of SU(5) Unification

, 2008
We explore the sparticle and Higgs spectroscopy of an SU(5) inspired extension of the constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model (CMSSM). The universal soft parameter m_0 is replaced by m_{\bar 5} and m_{10}, where m_{\bar 5} and m_{10} denote ...

Prediction of preterm birth using 3D volume cesarean scar morphology in pregnant women with previous advanced labor cesarean delivery

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Ultrasound assessment of the scar distance to the internal os may be considered as part of spontaneous preterm birth risk stratification in women with advanced labor cesarean delivery. Abstract Introduction This study aimed to develop a multiparameter predictive model for spontaneous preterm birth in pregnant women with a history of advanced labor ...

Remnants of massive metal-poor stars: viable engines for ultra-luminous X-ray sources

, 2010
Massive metal-poor stars might end their life by directly collapsing into massive (~25-80 Msun) black holes (BHs). We derive the number of massive BHs (N_BH) that are expected to form per galaxy via this mechanism.

Association between metabolic syndrome, macular structures and retinal vascular calibres in the Northern Finland Birth Cohort Eye Study

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose We aimed to evaluate the association of metabolic syndrome (MetS) with macular thickness and retinal vascular calibres in the population‐based cohort (Northern Finland Birth Cohort). Methods The population of 2242 individuals was divided into MetS (n = 344) and control groups (n = 1898).

Flight measured and calculated exhaust jet conditions for an F100 engine in an F-15 airplane [PDF]

The exhaust jet conditions, in terms of temperature and Mach number, were determined for a nozzle-aft end acoustic study flown on an F-15 aircraft. Jet properties for the F100 EMD engines were calculated using the engine manufacturer's specification deck.

The Skyrme model predictions for the ${\bf 27}_{J=3/2}$ mass spectrum and the ${\bf 27}_{3/2}$-$\bar{\bf 10}$ mass splittings

, 2004
The ${\bf 27}_{J=3/2}$-plet mass spectrum and the ${\bf 27}_{3/2}$-$\bar{\bf 10}$ mass splittings are computed in the framework of the minimal SU(3)$_f$ extended Skyrme model.

Proteomic profile of CSF obtained at the time of diagnosis determines amyotrophic lateral sclerosis progression and survival: CXCL7 levels in disease prognosis and survival

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Untargeted multiomic profiling of cerebrospinal fluid reveals that proteomic, but not lipidomic, signatures robustly distinguish ALS patients from controls and stratify individuals by survival, highlighting marked molecular differences between short survival and long survival disease.

M-Theory on S^1/Z_2 : New Facts from a Careful Analysis

, 2000
We carefully re-examine the issues of solving the modified Bianchi identity, anomaly cancellations and flux quantization in the S^1/Z_2 orbifold of M-theory using the boundary-free "upstairs" formalism, avoiding several misconceptions present in earlier ...
