Internet development, economic level, and port total factor productivity: an empirical study of Yangtze River ports

, 2020
To improve inland ports efficiency, this paper uses the Hicks-Moorsteen index to measure the TFP of 18 inland ports on the Yangtze River from 2005 to 2016 and establishes a nonlinear measurement model of internet development affecting port TFP.

Port Congestion or Port Dysfunction?

1983
The expansion of world trade and rate of growth of industrialised countries from 1945 has been reduced in the last few years, first with the upsurge in oil prices in 1974 and then with the events of the so-called oil crisis. Shipping appeared to be severely hit, with fleets laid up, even if only temporarily. However, traffic congestion in ports did not

Two-port versus four-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy

Surgical Endoscopy, 2003
Two-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy has been reported to be safe and feasible. However, whether it offers any additional advantages remains controversial. This study reports a randomized trial that compared the clinical outcomes of two-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy versus conventional four-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy.One hundred and twenty ...
