This study explored the impact of strategic orientations (SO) on supply chain performance (SCP) in Jordanian extractive and mining companies. mediated by organizational ambidexterity (OA). A stratified random sample 200 questionnaire hand-delivered to managers at senior middle management was taken. testing hypotheses with PLS-SEM4. The results indicated a significant SO (market orientation lear...

While the cerebellum plays a critical role in motor coordination and control no studies have investigated its involvement in idiopathic mobility impairment in community-dwelling elderly. In this study we tested the hypothesis that structural changes in the cerebellar peduncles not detected by conventional magnetic resonance imaging are associated with reduced mobility performance. The analysis ...

The emerging economies are the centrepieces in sustainable consumption and production of palm oil (SCP). With collaborative efforts European Union some non-governmental organisations, producers kept spotlight, scrutiny has begun to sweep down supply chain. Palm environmental liabilities extended consuming countries criticism is evident context weak institutions inadequate attention from interes...

The effects of stresscopin (SCP) on rat paraventricular nucleus (PVN) neurons were examined using whole-cell patch-clamp recordings and single-cell reverse-transcription multiplex polymerase chain reaction (SC-RT-mPCR) techniques. Under current-clamp conditions, bath application of SCP (100 nM) induced inhibition in 35.2% (37/105) of putative magnocellular neurons and 24.7% (20/81) of putative ...

Although the 20-amino acid presequence present in 15-kDa pro-sterol carrier protein-2 (pro-SCP-2, the precursor of the mature 13-kDa SCP-2) alters the function of SCP-2 in lipid metabolism, the molecular basis for this effect is unresolved. The presequence dramatically altered SCP-2 structure as determined by circular dichroism, mass spectroscopy, and antibody accessibility such that pro-SCP-2 ...

INTRODUCTION Muscle weakness determines functional impairment in spastic cerebral palsy (SCP). Measurement of specific force (SF) allows for strength comparison with unimpaired populations (controls) accounting for neural (activation and coactivation), architectural (fascicle length and pennation angle), and structural differences (moment arm length). METHODS Medial gastrocnemius (MG) SF (and...

We analyze the ESG rating criteria used by prominent agencies and show that there is a lack of commonality in definition (i) characteristics, (ii) attributes (iii) standards defining E, S G components. provide evidence heterogeneity can lead to have opposite opinions on same evaluated companies agreement across those providers substantially low. Those alternative definitions also affect sustain...

Slow cortical potentials (SCPs) are considered to reflect the regulation of attention resources and cortical excitability in cortical neuronal networks. Impaired attentional functioning, as found in patients with schizophrenic disorders, may covary with impaired SCP regulation. This hypothesis was tested using a self-regulation paradigm. Twelve medicated male schizophrenic inpatients and 12 hea...

With just one eighth the size of the major capsid protein (MCP), the smallest capsid protein (SCP) of human tumor herpesviruses--Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)--is vital to capsid assembly, yet its mechanism of action is unknown. Here, by cryoEM of KSHV at 6-Å resolution, we show that SCP forms a crown on each hexon and uses a kinked helix to cross-l...

Media sharing is an extremely popular paradigm of social interaction in online social networks (OSNs) nowadays. The scalable media access control is essential to perform information sharing among users with various access privileges. In this paper, we present a multi-dimensional scalable media access control (MD-SMAC) system based on the proposed scalable ciphertext policy attribute-based encry...
