An operationalization of Teal by Lykke Mose

“… The public sector must reinvent itself as modern complexities require governance and management styles, enabling more agile and network-based collaboration. The Teal paradigm (Laloux 2014) has self-management (coordinated local autonomy), evolutionary purpose (a sense of meaning), and wholeness (trust enabling being present as a ‘whole’ human being) can foster innovation, agility, and effectiveness in the private sector. …”

Acute Lower Gastrointestinal Bleeding: Part I by Robert Enns

“…Although endoscopic evaluation of the colon is relatively standard in stable patients with LGI bleeding, those with significant ongoing hemorrhage are often more difficult to evaluate endoscopically. Other investigative techniques such as nuclear scintigraphy, angiography and surgical exploration have been commonly used in unstable patients with LGI bleeding when the exact site is unknown. …”

Dynamic risk prediction of survival in liver cirrhosis: A comparison of landmarking approaches. by Mitchell Paukner, Daniela P Ladner, Lihui Zhao

“…Electronic health records (EHR) data provides the researcher and physician with the opportunity to improve risk prediction by employing newer, more sophisticated modeling techniques. Rather than treating the impact of predictor variables on health trajectories as static, we explore the use of time-dependent variables in dynamically modeling time-to-event data through the use of landmarking (LM) data sets. …”

大功率摩托车用无级变速器主动轮调速蹄块的研究 by 屈翔, 张君, 廖林清, 谢明

“…The clutch weight,which is the wheel speed sensor in the continuously variable transmission system installed on the large power motorcycle,is analyzed.The displacement that clutch weight revolves around the fixed pin and the shape of cultch weight’s working curved surface decide the working radius of CVT’s driving wheel.The design of clutch weight affects the velocity ratio change of the whole system.The mathematical expression that the clutch weight has influence on the axial pressure of the driving wheel is deduced,and the mathematical expression is defined by a new concept,which is named equivalent radius.And finally,the expression of equivalent radius is improved based on the effect that the centre of mass of clutch weight and working curved surface have on the driving wheel,and the improved expression is more perfect.…”
