Evaluating Associations Between Ankylosing Spondylitis, Torque Teno Virus and Polymorphisms in Interleukin 6 and Vitamin D Receptor Genes

International Journal of Immunogenetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The etiology of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is complex and not yet fully understood. Interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), vitamin D and the vitamin D receptor (VDR) play an important role in modulating immune response, and Torque teno virus is considered a marker of immune status. This case–control study aimed to investigate the predisposition to AS. A total

Nonself-adjoint semicrossed products by abelian semigroups

, 2011
Let $\mathcal{S}$ be the semigroup $\mathcal{S}=\sum^{\oplus k}_{i=1}\Sc{S}_i$, where for each $i\in I$, $\mathcal{S}_i$ is a countable subsemigroup of the additive semigroup $\B{R}_+$ containing 0.

Multinational enterprises’ contribution to gender equality: An integrative framework

International Journal of Management Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the progress made in recent years, inequalities between men and women persist. Gender equality (GE) is one of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG5) that multinational enterprises (MNEs) can contribute most to. This is because SDG5 integrates directly into MNEs’ human resource practices, supply chain management and ...

Business Collective Action: An Integrative Review and Framework

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Business collective action (BCA) has long been a topic of interest to management scholars. However, our theoretical understanding of this important phenomenon has been hindered by its fragmented development in the literature. To address this shortcoming, we conduct a comprehensive review of BCA across a wide range of disciplines in management,

Branch Line Couplers With Small Size and Harmonic Suppression Based on Non-Periodic Step Impedance Shunt Stub (SISS) Loaded Lines

IEEE Access, 2020
This paper presents branch line couplers with compact size and harmonic suppression based on non-periodic reactively loaded artificial lines. The reactive loading elements of the lines are step impedance shunt stubs (SISSs).

Light Cluster Production at NICA [PDF]

Acta Physica Polonica B Proceedings Supplement, 2017
In a recent publication the importance of measuaring light clusters at future NICA and FAIR experiments as "rare probes" for in-medium characteristics was presented. Within theoretical conciderations is shown how clusters would be affected by medium affects as given collider energies.

Unpacking Merit, Fit, and Diversity: A Multifaceted Framework to Academic Gatekeeping in Social Sciences at U.S. R1 Research Universities

Sociological Inquiry, EarlyView.
This study draws on interviews with 50 sociology and business professors across two private and five public American universities, and proposes a novel “Merit‐Fit‐Diversit” framework to show how narratives of merit, fit, and diversity emerge at different evaluation stages of tenure‐track job candidates. The evaluation produces inequality because: merit
