Toward Faster Recalls of Dangerous Medical Devices: Does Ownership by Large Institutional Investors Matter?

Journal of Operations Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recall delays expose consumers to prolonged risk and undermine a firm's long‐term performance and reputation. Building on agency theory's conceptualization of principal‐agent relationships, we theorize that large institutional investors play an important monitoring role wherein their ownership encourages faster recalls. We then build on agency

On the determinacy of games on ordinals

Annals of Mathematical Logic, 1981
Let λ be an ordinal and A ⊆ λ^ω x λ^ω. As usual we associate with it the game G(A;λ): I II I and II alternatively ξ0 η0 play ξ0, η0, ξ1,η1,.... from λ; ξ1 I wins iff (ξ, ή) eA. η1 ξ ή.

Network Formation and Co-ordination Games [PDF]

, 2004
Co-ordination games attracted many theoretically and experimentally orientated economists during the 1990s (see, for example, van Huyck et al, 1990; Cooper et al, 1992; Berninghaus and Schwalbe, 1996a; Young, 1998). In our paper we consider simple symmetric normal form 2 × 2 games which are characterized by having two equilibria in pure strategies.

Biomaterials for resolution of peri‐implantitis: Consensus report of Workgroup 2 of the IADR Implantology Research Group Best Evidence Consensus Symposium on Peri‐Implant Disease and Its Treatment

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis is a destructive disease affecting the tissues surrounding dental implants. Biomaterials may be applied during surgical treatment to reconstruct bony defects and support soft tissue healing. However, current evidence is unclear if these treatments increase the likelihood of peri‐implantitis resolution.

Consuming heat‐inactivated Lactiplantibacillus pentosus ONRICb0240‐containing postbiotics reduces gingival inflammation: A double‐blind randomized clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontal disease affects people globally, requiring approaches to halt progression at the gingivitis stage. Researchers have investigated live probiotics; we studied the effect of a heat‐inactivated preparation (postbiotic) of Lactiplantibacillus pentosus ONRICb0240 on gingival inflammation.
