Innervation of the tubarial glands: A hypothesis‐driven anatomical review

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tubarial glands have been described as a macroscopic bilateral glandular complex in the posterolateral nasopharynx near the torus tubarius and the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube. Since their recognition on prostate‐specific membrane antigen‐based imaging, their anatomical classification has remained debated, with converging ...

When Does SDG Adoption Increase ESG Risk? The Mediating Role of Risk Management

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corporate engagement with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has expanded rapidly, yet its implications for firms' environmental, social and governance (ESG) risk remain insufficiently understood. Prior research has focused on the performance outcomes of SDG adoption while largely overlooking its potential to generate ESG

Guided Toward Equity: Communities of Practice and Organizational Change in Community Colleges

New Directions for Community Colleges, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although community colleges advance equity by providing opportunities for marginalized students to pursue higher education, barriers to earning credentials remain, particularly for students of color. Higher education stakeholders are investing in “equity work” as organizations take responsibility for ensuring equitable outcomes.

Mechanical Properties of Microsteel Fiber Reinforced Concrete and Its Gradient Design in the Partially Reinforced RC Beam

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020
Effects of two kinds of microsteel fibers were employed in reinforced concrete (RC) with different fiber volumes fraction. The RC beam was partially reinforced by microsteel fiber reinforced concrete (MSFRC) based on the idea of gradient design. Flexural

Luiz Bandeira Bridge: Assessment of a Historical Reinforced Concrete (RC) Bridge [PDF]

International Journal of Architectural Heritage, 2013
The Luiz Bandeira Bridge is located along the Portuguese national road EN333-3, breaching the valley of the Vouga River, just northeast of the small village Sejães, in the district of Oliveira de Frades. It is considered to be the oldest concrete bridge in use in Portugal, and one of the oldest in Europe.
