Mother-offspring (MO) relationship quality was investigated to determine its influence on the development of reconciliation--affiliation between opponents shortly after a fight--because it influenceswhat distressed youngsters learn about calming down. Data were longitudinal and cross-sectional observational samples of 38 MO pairs of monkeys across 24 months. An MO relationship quality index (RQ...

BACKGROUND Unresolved medication discrepancies during hospitalization can contribute to adverse drug events, resulting in patient harm. Discrepancies can be reduced by performing medication reconciliation; however, effective implementation of medication reconciliation has proven to be challenging. The goals of the Multi-Center Medication Reconciliation Quality Improvement Study (MARQUIS) are to...

MOTIVATION Gene family evolution is driven by evolutionary events such as speciation, gene duplication, horizontal gene transfer and gene loss, and inferring these events in the evolutionary history of a given gene family is a fundamental problem in comparative and evolutionary genomics with numerous important applications. Solving this problem requires the use of a reconciliation framework, wh...

At the center of this paper are three questions: in the absence of a religious worldview, can one gain access to the concepts of forgiveness and reconciliation, can reconciliation be achieved in the absence of forgiveness or does the former depend in some way upon the latter, and can we make sense of a restorative approach to justice in the absence of either forgiveness or reconciliation? To an...

Medication reconciliation was developed to reduce medical mistakes and injuries through a process of creating and comparing a current medication list from independent patient information sources, and resolving discrepancies. The structure and clinician assignments of medication reconciliation varies between institutions, but usually includes physicians, nurses and pharmacists. The Joint Commiss...

OBJECTIVE To improve understanding of the medication reconciliation process, its effect on patient care and outcomes, and how pharmacists can contribute to improving this process using a standardized framework of service delivery defined in the context of medication therapy management. SUMMARY Medication reconciliation is an integral part of the care transitions process in which health care p...

This paper measures the responsiveness of taxable income to changes in the marginal tax rate using panel data on executive compensation since 1992. It exploits variation from four tax acts: the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993, the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001, the Jobs and Growth Reconciliation Act of 2003, and the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012. Sto...

Optimistic replication is used to provide high data availability and support for disconnected operation in mobile computing environments. As this approach may lead to concurrent updates, a system based on optimistic replication must include a replica reconciliation mechanism. In this paper, we describe the reconciliation mechanism implemented in the Files EveryWhere (FEW) le system for mobile c...

We extend the scope of forecast reconciliation literature and use its tools in context causal inference. Researchers are interested both average treatment effect on treated heterogeneity. show that ex post correction counterfactual estimates using aggregation constraints stem from hierarchical or grouped structure data is likely to yield more accurate estimates. Building geometric interpretatio...

UNLABELLED : A gene tree-species tree reconciliation explains the evolution of a gene tree within the species tree given a model of gene-family evolution. We describe ecceTERA, a program that implements a generic parsimony reconciliation algorithm, which accounts for gene duplication, loss and transfer (DTL) as well as speciation, involving sampled and unsampled lineages, within undated, fully ...
