Abstract:
Risk management is an important part of every business. In order to properly conduct it, risk assessment and within it, information classification is needed. The information classification produces a list of information assets and states how they are valued within the organization. That is then used as an important part of the risk assessment process. In order to conduct such a valuation, users are consulted as they often times understand the value of information. However, using the CIA-Triad when communicating has proved to be difficult for users not knowledgeable in information security. Tru

Several tools exist for root cause analysis (RCA). Despite this however, many practitioners are not obtaining the quality improvement desired. Those turning to literature for guidance would find most of the information resides in case studies with anecdotal outcomes. Since 5 Whys analysis has been one of the more pervasive tools in use, this study sought to add to the root cause analysis body of knowledge by investigating tool support factors. While studied in conjunction with 5 Whys, the support variables lend themselves to other root cause analysis tools as well. The purpose of the study was

An important contribution of the present thesis is to show that ratios can be arranged into groups where each group describes a separate fi

Abstract:
In practice, graphs often occur as perturbed product structures, so-called approximate graph products. The practical application of the well-known prime factorization algorithms is therefore limited, since most graphs are prime, although they can have a product-like structure. This work is concerned with the strong graph product. Since strong product graphs G contain subgraphs that are itself products of subgraphs of the underlying factors of G, we follow the idea to develop local approaches that cover a graph by factorizable patches and then use this information to derive the global factors.

Abstract:
Aim: To explore the role of cannabis use for the availability of ecstasy as a potential pathway to subsequent first ecstasy use. Methods: Baseline and 4-year follow-up data from a prospective-longitudinal community study of originally 3021 adolescents and young adults aged 14–24 years at baseline were assessed using the standardized M-CIDI and DSM-IV criteria. Results: Baseline cannabis users reported at follow-up more frequent access to ecstasy than cannabis non-users. Higher cannabis use frequencies were associated with increased ecstasy availability reports. Logistic regression analyses

Full text
Abstract:
Below vegetation, throughfall kinetic energy (TKE) is an important factor to express the potential of rainfall to detach soil particles and thus for predicting soil erosion rates. TKE is affected by many biotic (e.g. tree height, leaf area index) and abiotic (e.g. throughfall amount) factors because of changes in rain drop size and velocity. However, studies modelling TKE with a high number of those factors are lacking. This study presents a new approach to model TKE. We used 20 biotic and abiotic factors to evaluate thresholds of those factors that can mitigate TKE and thus decrease soil eros

Background: To assess acute effects of bevacizumab (anti-VEGF therapy) on cerebral microvessels and systemic cardiovascular regulation. Design and subjects: 20 consecutive patients with colorectal cancer (median age: 60.4 years, range 45.5-73.9 years) received bevacizumab intravenously (5 mg/kg) uncoupled of chemotherapy. Prior to and within the first 24 hours after bevacizumab infusion, patients were investigated for retinal endothelial function. A series of a triple 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure measurement was conducted. Retinal endothelial function was determined as flicker light-indu

Foram consideradas como adenomas e acreditava-se que não tinham potencial para disseminação hematogênica e linfática. Porém, a ocorrência de metástase linfática e hematogênica acontece em um quinto dos indivíduos acometidos por essa patologia. A variação no comportamento clínico dos carcinóides broncopulmonares torna imperativa a realização de pesquisas que visem à melhor compreensão dessa doença. É fundamental determinar a agressividade e o risco individual da ocorrência de metástase linfática e hema

Abstract:
Objective: Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) has been suggested to be a prognostic marker for the development of cancer and, more recently, cardiovascular disease. These diseases are closely linked to obesity, but reports of the association of IGF-I with measures of obesity are divergent. In this study, we assessed the association of age-dependent IGF-I standard deviation scores with body mass index (BMI) and intra-abdominal fat accumulation in a large population. Design: A cross-sectional, epidemiological study. Methods: IGF-I levels were measured with an automated chemiluminescence assa

Abstract:
Objective: Lower levels of anabolic hormones in older age are well documented. Several studies suggested that low insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) or testosterone levels were related to increased mortality. The aim of the present study was to investigate the combined influence of low IGF-I and low testosterone on all-cause mortality in men. Methods and results: From two German prospective cohort studies, the DETECT study and SHIP, 3942 men were available for analyses. During 21,838 person-years of follow-up, 8.4% (n = 330) of men died.

Adipositas ist besonders in den Industrienationen ein zunehmendes gesellschaftliches und ökonomisches Problem. Dabei sind vor allem die kardiovaskulären und metabolischen Begleiterkrankungen von entscheidender Bedeutung. In den letzten Jahren konnte gezeigt werden, dass verschiedene Adipozyten- und Hepatozyten-sezernierte Proteine Mediatoren von Insulinresistenz und Dyslipidämie darstellen. Kürzlich wurde Angiopoietin-related growth factor (AGF) als ein neues, von der Leber produziertes Protein, das potentiell Insulinresistenz und Adipositas antagonisiert, vorgestellt.

Abstract:
In this paper, we report that various kinds of active sites on graphite surface including active hydrophilic sites markedly affect the electrochemical performance of graphite anodes for lithium ion batteries under different humidity conditions. After depositing metals such as Ag and Cu by immersing and heat-treating, these active sites on the graphite surface were removed or covered and its electrochemical performance under the high humidity conditions was markedly improved. This suggests that lithium ion batteries can be assembled under less strict conditions and that it provides a valuable d
