    Work motivation and job satisfaction in the Nordic countries (2004)
    Bradford : Emerald
    Employee relations 26 (2004), S. 122-136

    ISSN: 0142-5455

    Topics: Economics
    Notes: This paper studies differences in job satisfaction and intrinsic work motivation between employees with different characteristics. Based on a study of the literature assumptions regarding these differences are developed and tested on data from a survey in the Nordic countries. In this survey 9,623 employees from randomly selected households in the Nordic countries participated. Among the findings are that Danish workers were found to be the most satisfied and that there is no difference between the genders with respect to job satisfaction in the Nordic countries.

    Notes: In order to investigate the potential of magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR) in the elucidation of post-mortem metabolism in muscle biopsies, simultaneous 1H and 31P MAS NMR measurements were made continuously on post-mortem (20 min to 24 h) muscle longissimus samples from rabbits. The animals had either been or not been given adrenaline (0.5 mg kg−1 4 h pre-slaughter) to deplete stores of muscle glycogen. The intracellular pH was calculated from 1H spectra, and the post-mortem rate of formation of lactate was followed and quantified. Comparison of measurements made on muscle samples from rabbits treated with adrenaline with measurements made on muscle samples from untreated rabbits revealed significant effects of adrenaline treatment on both pH (pH24 h = 6.42 vs. pH24 h = 5.60) and formation of lactate (16 mmol g−1 vs. 65 mmol g−1). The 31P NMR spectra were used to follow the rate of degradation of ATP and phosphocreatine. The present study clearly shows that MAS NMR has potential for the study of post-mortem energy metabolism.

    Adiponectin acts in the brain to decrease body weight (2004)

    Notes: [Auszug] Adiponectin (ADP) is an adipocyte hormone involved in glucose and lipid metabolism. We detected a rise in ADP in cerebrospinal fluid after intravenous (i.v.) injection, consistent with brain transport. In contrast to leptin, intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) administration of ADP decreased body ...

    The predictive power of intangibles (2003)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Measuring business excellence 7 (2003), S. 46-54 
    Details
    ISSN: 1368-3047

    Notes: This paper describes the need for intangible measurements for non-financial reporting. Nowadays book value accounts for just around one quarter of the market value making the relevance of the balance sheet questionable. There is therefore a need for developing standardized methodologies for quantifying intangible assets and this is already underway. Two recently developed methodologies, The European Performance Satisfaction Index and The European Employee Index, is described in the paper and the benefit of applying these methodologies is exemplified through empirical data. These data stems from Amtsparekassen Fyn which is a medium sized Danish bank that has measured employee/customer satisfaction systematically since 1997 and the data used for this analysis is from the surveys conducted in 2000. The analysis shows that the measures for employee and customer satisfaction are good predictors of financial performance.

    Measuring employee assets - The Nordic Employee Index (2004)
    Bradford : Emerald
    Business process management journal 10 (2004), S. 537-550 
    Details
    ISSN: 1355-2503
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Based on a review of the literature within the field of job satisfaction and organizational commitment this paper proposes a generic model for measuring employee perceptions. The model consists of seven latent constructs operationalised through 29 manifest indicators. This model is subsequently tested on data from a questionnaire survey to which approximately 9,600 employees from the Nordic countries responded. The statistical technique applied for this analysis is partial least squares (PLS), which is well suited for structural equation modelling when the focus is on prediction. The results support the structure of the suggested generic model but reveals differences between the Nordic countries with regard to strength of the relationships as well as the average case value of the seven latent constructs.

    Notes: [Auszug] Acrp30 is a circulating protein synthesized in adipose tissue. A single injection in mice of purified recombinant Acrp30 leads to a 2–3-fold elevation in circulating Acrp30 levels, which triggers a transient decrease in basal glucose levels. Similar treatment in ob/ob, NOD (non-obese ...

    Prediction of Creatinine Clearance from Serum Creatinine in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis: Comparison of Six Formulae and One Nomogram (2000)

    Notes: Abstract: The estimation of glomerular filtration rate is important for the medical treatment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the determination of endogenous creatinine clearance (Clcr) from a 24-h urine collection is an unreliable and time-consuming procedure. We therefore tested the accuracy of six equations and one nomogram for the prediction of Clcr from serum creatinine (Scr) in 38 patients with RA and 20 controls. A positive correlation was found for all methods in the controls (r= 0.83–0.94) and RA patients (r= 0.51–0.69). The methods did not overestimate Clcr in RA. In the RA group the simple formula published by Cockcroft [Clcr = ((140 − age) × body weight)/(72 × Scr), × 0.85 for females] showed the best correlation with the measured Clcr. In RA the Cockroft formula can reliably be used to predict Clcr from Scr.

    Avascular Areas on Nailfold Capillary Microscopy of Patients with Wegener’s Granulomatosis (2000)

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract: Over the past 25 years, nailfold capillary microscopy (NCM) has gained diagnostic value in the field of rheumatology based on descriptive data from patients with distinct connective tissue diseases (CTD). We prospectively analysed NCM findings from 116 patients selected for NCM by one of the following indications: (1) suspected diffuse or limited scleroderma or dermatomyositis, (2) evaluation of Raynaud’s phenomenon (RP) or (3) suspected small-vessel vasculitis. Nailfold haemorrhages, and enlarged and tortuous nailfold capillaries (‘lupus pattern’) were found to comparable degrees in patients with CTD and primary RP. Only giant loops, bushy capillaries and avascular areas indicated CTD; 92% of patients with Wegener’s granulomatosis (WG) had avascular areas. From all nailfold capillary abnormalities, only bushy capillaries, giant loops and avascular areas support a suspected CTD. A lupus-like pattern is not diagnostic. Avascular areas are a typical abnormality in patients with WG, for which NCM findings have not been described previously.
