Abstract:

This study presents a methodology for determining port economic hinterlands through comprehensive logistics optimization. The research advances traditional geographical approaches by developing an integrated cost model that considers maritime transport, inland transportation, warehousing expenses, and time-dependent factors. Testing this methodology on the Spanish port system (with three main ports: Valencia, Algeciras, and Barcelona), we demonstrate how product characteristics and origins significantly influence optimal port selection and hinterland boundaries.

Abstract:

As awareness of the negative externalities created by ports increases, and the perceived local benefits decrease, ports must find new ways to improve the local noneconomic benefits they provide if they are to obtain local support. This global survey collected data from 51 ports in 26 countries. The results highlight a recognition by port authorities that ports face increasing pressure from local residents to reduce their negative impacts and that they should seek to improve the public perception towards the port by increasing local benefits. At present, port information and social media (81%),

Abstract:

Investments in port container terminals are sensitive to uncertainties. Public investments in infrastructure have been significantly reduced in the last decade in developing countries. The Brazilian government infrastructure investment was only 1.85 % of GDP in 2019, representing the lowest level in the last fifty years. Nonetheless, the regulatory framework of the port sector in Brazil has undergone significant changes over time, increasing the number of private port container terminal leases. The expansion capacity of the private port facilities is strongly linked to the demand uncertainty,

In my case, almost a decade in public accounting launched multiple papers examining the tension between financial reporting and tax planning. Some of these papers directly generated new requirements for tax compliance (Schedule M-3) and indirectly influenced new financial reporting disclosures (FIN 48). As tax accounting researchers, we have the best competitive advantage in helping tax policymakers and tax authorities distinguish real e

Abstract:

This discussion highlights the vital role anthropologists have played in negotiating issues of heritage management in the recent Inter- American Court of Human Rights' (IACHR) decision regarding the rights of Saramaka Maroons to ancestral land that was destroyed without the acknowledgement, authority or agreement of Saramaka peoples. The Saramaka, a tribal group living in Suriname, accused the Surinamese government of allowing multi-national logging enterprises to harvest timber from traditional Saramaka territory. In addition to this violation of human rights, the government did not provide a

Providing safe potable water onboard vessels presents particular challenges and contamination can occur directly from source waters as well as during loading, storage and distribution. Between May and October 2005, 950 potable water samples were collected from 342 ships docking at ports. Comparison with Guidelines found 9% of samples contained coliforms, Escherichia coli or enterococci and 2.8% had faecal indicators (E. coli or enterococci). Action levels of aerobic colony count (ACC) bacteria were detected in 20% (22°C) and 21.5% (37°C) of samples. ACC results from one-off sampling are not in

Abstract:

Only a small fraction of patients with acute ischemic stroke receive intravenous thrombolysis (IVT). We sought to assess barriers and practice patterns in using IVT for acute ischemic stroke among neurologists in Saudi Arabia. An electronic survey was sent to all neurologists registered with the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties. A total of 148 (77.5%) neurologists responded. The most common reported barriers for IVT administration were delayed presentation to hospitals (82.4%) and unclear time of symptom onset (50.0%). Only 9.9% of neurologists reported strict adherence to the American

Abstract:

Abstract Background: Ports, a type of central venous access device, are frequently used for the administration of intravenous medications, such as chemotherapy. These devices can remain in place for extended periods of time, from several months to years. To reduce the risk of complications, manufacturers recommend routine maintenance, often through monthly heparin flushes which leads to frequent visits to health care settings, adding to the burden and cost of care for both the patient and the healthcare system. The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated decreasing the frequency of port flushes to ever

Abstract:

In the aftermath of the Civil War, state judges lost their long-held right to inquire into the legality of federal detentions, and habeas corpus—once almost solely the business of state courts—was largely transformed into a federal remedy. We argue that the wartime furor surrounding underage enlistees was a key factor in driving this legal change. Scholarship on the use of habeas corpus during the war generally concentrates on cases involving freedom of speech or political association, but thousands of parents and guardians also petitioned Union authorities and state courts to retrieve minor c

Abstract:

This paper presents a general procedure for a rate-type creep analysis (based on the use of the continuous retardation spectrum) which avoids the need of recalculating the Kelvin chain stiffness elements at each time step. In this procedure are incorporated three different creep constitutive relations, two recommended by national codes such as the ACI (North-American) and EC2 (European) building codes and one by the RILEM research association. The approximate expressions of the different creep functions with the corresponding Dirichlet series are generated using the continuous retardation spec

Acute and long-term treatments are based on antipsychotic drugs, even if some domains of personal and social functioning are not addressed by psychopharmacotherapy. In fact, psychosocial interventions show a positive impact on patient’s functioning and clinical outcome. In addition, psychosocial interventions are significantly associated with a lower number of relapses and hospitalizations in schizophrenia.

With the closure of the Shreveport Clinic in 1923, the United States entered a 40-year period during which legal opiate maintenance was limited to a small number of registered medical addicts, most of them cancer patients. Addicts were demonized, hounded by law enforcement personnel, and rarely treated outside of jails. Abstinence was the only legitimate goal of treatment. Quite correctly, historians regard the period between the mid-1920s and the mid-1960s as the Dark Ages of American drug policy. Even so, there was resistance to such therapeutic orthodoxy, notably on the West Coast. Indeed,
