The Black‐Box of ESG Scores From Rating Agencies: Do They Genuinely Reflect Sustainability Practices, or Are They Disproportionately Shaped by Financial Performance?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the environmental, social and governance (ESG) scoring methodologies used by Bloomberg and S&P Global through the lens of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). It addresses a notable gap in the literature by identifying the underlying factors that shape ESG scores and providing practical insights for companies seeking to ...

Linear Convergence of a Frank-Wolfe Type Algorithm over Trace-Norm Balls

open access: yes, 2017
We propose a rank-$k$ variant of the classical Frank-Wolfe algorithm to solve convex optimization over a trace-norm ball. Our algorithm replaces the top singular-vector computation ($1$-SVD) in Frank-Wolfe with a top-$k$ singular-vector computation ($k ...

Association Between Gas‐Free Cerebrovascular Reactivity (CVR) and Cognitive Function in Older Adults With a High Risk for Vascular Dementia

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Vascular cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID) is the second leading cause of dementia. Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) is a promising biomarker for VCID. However, CVR is not commonly measured in clinical practice due to logistical difficulties in applying a hypercapnia challenge during MR imaging. Purpose To investigate whether

A MR Fingerprinting Development Kit for Quantitative 3D Brain Imaging

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) is an emerging quantitative imaging technique that enables multiparametric tissue characterization, but its adoption has been hindered by the complexity of data acquisition and post‐processing. These technical and implementation challenges have limited its broader clinical deployment.

Sunshine Duration in Brazil From Meteosat (1983–2020): Climatology, Variability and Long‐Term Trends

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Using nearly four decades of Meteosat satellite data (1983–2020), this study presents a country‐wide climatology of sunshine duration (SDU) in Brazil. The results reveal marked regional contrasts, dominant modes of variability, and significant long‐term trends, providing new information on the most relevant meteorological systems that influence SDU and

Association Between Colorectal Cancer Screening and Survival in Patients Older Than 70 Years: Results of A National Multicenter Retrospective Study

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Colorectal cancer screening mainly targets a population between 50 and 70 years of age; however, it is inconsistently implemented in people over 70. The aim of this study was to analyze the association between colorectal cancer (CRC) screening, postoperative mortality, and perioperative and oncologic outcomes in a large population ...
