Coordination of Supply Chains with Competing Manufacturers considering Fairness Concerns by Jie Jian, Yuyao Zhang, Lin Jiang, Jiafu Su

“…The results show that there is a revenue-sharing contract parameter in both the peer-induced and distributional fairness concerns of manufacturers, which can effectively realize Pareto improvements in a supply chain. Meanwhile, the retail and wholesale prices both decreased with the increase in the revenue-sharing ratio between retailers and manufacturers, and the profits of retailers decreased accordingly, but the overall utility of manufacturers and supply chains improved markedly. …”

PEPITEM, its tripeptide pharmacophores and their peptidomimetic analogues regulate the inflammatory response through parenteral and topical dosing in models of peritonitis and psor... by Anella Saviano, Bonita Apta, Samantha Tull, Laleh Pezhman, Areeba Fatima, Mustafa Sevim, Antonio Mete, Myriam Chimen, Anna Schettino, Noemi Marigliano, Helen M. McGettrick, Asif J. Iqbal, Francesco Maione, G. Ed Rainger

“…The order of magnitude increase in efficacy observed for some peptidomimetics may deliver agents with enhanced pharmacological characteristics compared to the parent PEPITEM sequence. Taken together with other reports on the efficacy of PEPITEM, this study paves the way for the development and translation of a novel class of anti-inflammatory agents which may have utility in a broad range of autoimmune and chronic inflammatory diseases.…”

The path forward for sustainability of the pension system in a historical context by J. Mertl, R. Valenčík

“…When reforming the pension system in this manner the opportunity arises to begin gradual changes through fully merit system reform and therefore significantly motivating of extending the period of productivity (putting off retirement) through the upgrade of this system for persons who have reached the retirement age as specified by law.This paper aims to substantiate and explore possible changes in this direction that will not endanger anyone’s entitlements when the reforms are implemented (they have got the form of Pareto improvement), as they derive their funds by extending the time of individual productivity. …”
