Partnerships for Social Cohesion and Social Impact: How Corporate‐Community Co‐Development Constitutes an Impactful HR Initiative

Human Resource Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Organizational scholars have begun to recognize the importance of social cohesion, but we know little about how it can lead to broader social impact, and even less about the role of human resource management (HRM) in these processes. To investigate this link, we examined corporate community co‐development as a particularly impactful HRM ...

Self-tapping Intermaxillary Fixation Screw: An Alternative to Arch Bar

The Journal of Contemporary Dental Practice, 2017
ABSTRACT Introduction The use of intermaxillary fixation (IMF) in the treatment of faciomaxillary fractures is the key factor for reduction and immobilization. Various techniques of IMF have been described in the past and recently IMF screws have been introduced. This technique has various advantages, including ease of use, less time consumption, less

Knee joint line obliquity alters lateral meniscal root tension, tibiofemoral subluxation and compartment‐specific contact pressures

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The objective was to measure effects of joint line obliquity (JLO) on meniscus posterior root tension, tibiofemoral subluxation and contact pressures. It was hypothesised that a medial JLO would increase medial meniscal (MM) root tension, medial tibiofemoral subluxation and medial compartment contact pressure, and vice versa for ...

Polycarbonate Vitrimers and Dynamic Co‐Networks From Epoxide/Carbon Dioxide Copolymerization

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates how CO2‐derived poly(propylene carbonate) and poly(cyclohexene carbonate) backbones influence vitrimer thermo‐mechanical behavior. By tuning backbone composition, epoxide crosslinker chemistry and blend ratios, the crosslinked materials span a wide property window, from highly extensible to stiff, glassy networks, establishing an
