BACKGROUND/GOALS Supporting medical students entering their internships - the clinical clerkship and the internship "final clinical year" (Praktisches Jahr, PJ) - the seminars "Ready for Clerkship" and "Ready for PJ" were held for the first time in 2014 and continued successfully in 2015. These seminars are part of the "Magdeburg Curriculum for Healthcare Competence" (Magdeburger Curriculum zur...

AIMS Faecal samples from cattle in US feedlots were evaluated for the presence of Salmonella. When Salmonella isolates were recovered the antimicrobial resistance patterns were determined. METHODS AND RESULTS Faecal samples were collected from pen floors in 73 feedlots in 12 states during the period from October 1999 to September 2000. Pens of cattle selected for sampling were those that had ...

Background: I have designed a Q-shape biliary diversion pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) to prevent delayedhemorrhage in case of pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) leakage. However, eliminating PJ leakage is the ultimate goal. A PJ anastomosis technique, irrespective of soft pancreatic texture or duct-size, has been found. Methods: Nine PDs were included. An end-to-side anastomosed proximal jejunal loop (...

In this paper, we investigate a simplified head-of-the-line with priority jumps (HOL-PJ) scheduling discipline. Therefore, we consider a discrete-time single-server queueing system with two priority queues of infinite capacity and with a newly introduced HOL-PJ priority scheme. We derive expressions for the probability generating function of the system contents and the packet delay. Some perfor...

OBJECTIVES This study aimed to compare pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) with pancreaticogastrostomy (PG) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). METHODS A literature search of PubMed and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials for studies comparing PJ with PG after PD was conducted. The primary outcome for meta-analysis was pancreatic fistula. Secondary outcomes were morbidity, mortality, b...

Purpose: The drive of this study is to explore the serial mediation role procedural justice (PJ) and organizational conflict management (OCM) between servant leadership (SL) innovative work behavior (IWB). Theoretical framework: Previous studies have proved that there a positive relationship SL & PJ, OCM SL, PJ IWB, IWB. But gap in validation for Design/methodology/approach: A sample approx...

We propose predictive jumping (PJ), a fast and efficient algorithm that enables user navigation to off-screen targets. The algorithm is inspired by Delphian Desktop [1] and the off-screen visualization technique–Halo [2]. The Halos represented at the edge of the viewport help users estimate off-screen target distance and encourage them to make a single fluid mouse movement toward the target. Ha...

This study proposed theoretical model for examining the turnover intentions (TI) process using career commitment as a moderator. In the model, TI are directly influenced by organizational commitment (OC) and procedural justice (PJ), while both PJ and perceived organizational support (POS) also influence TI indirectly through the mediation of OC. These causal relationships are moderated by caree...
