BACKGROUND: We aimed to explore the predictive ability of preoperative carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels for assessing tumor resectability (R0 resection) in patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma. METHODS: The present study included 72 patients who had been treated surgically for potentially resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma and 42 patients who had been treated surgically for palliation (bypass surgery) at our institution. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma

This article examines the relationship between social networks and organizational commitment in a globalized workplace. The authors find not only that organizational commitment is affected by the network properties of size, power connection, and national/ethnic composition but also that these network effects are contingent upon whether the content conveyed in the relationship is instrumental or expressive. Results demonstrate that organizational commitment is (1) positively associated with netwo

Experts have difficulty assessing the economic value of university-originated technologies due to the high level of uncertainty associated with the commercialization of early stage and basic technologies. This article proposes a random forest approach to the valuation of university-originated technologies that integrates monetary value and patent value models for technology valuation. First, a technological characteristics-value matrix was constructed after defining a total of 23 indicators from

Technological innovation, as a collaboration among inventors and complementary knowledge professionals, requires the management of knowledge boundaries and the integration of specialised tasks. We propose that dense collaborations among inventors and professionals facilitate the process of collaboration by reducing coordination cost and by mitigating the uncertainties inherent in technological innovation. In the empirical context of university technology commercialisation, we find that the relat

This paper investigates the impact of the timing of patent rights on licensing performance in the context of university technology licensing. We provide an argument that the timing of patent allowance, i.e., a legal event that clarifies patent rights, in the technology licensing phase can alter licensing performance by shifting technology valuation, as well as behavioral dynamics, in the process of commercialization. By analyzing inventions disclosed from Stanford University, we find that preall

This paper examines the relationship between time and performance in the commercialisation of university-originated inventions. Focusing on the commercialisation time, defined as the time taken for a lab-scale invention to be developed for commercial sale, we investigate whether there is any systematic association between commercialisation time and the licensing revenue generated by university-originated inventions. Analysing a sample of inventions from Stanford University, we find that both pre

We examine how family ownership affects the changing composition of board members in Taiwan. We suggest that the association between family ownership and board composition should be understood in the institutional context in which a firm is situated. We find not only that family-owned firms embedded in the local capital market exhibit greater family presence on the board but also that this effect becomes weaker for those exposed to foreign capital markets. The strong association between family o

Ahkera Smart Tech is a technology start-up specialized in baggage loading, a niche market of airport baggage handling system. Its robotics technology has great potential to revolutionize baggage loading by improving operational efficiency, accuracy and safety in the airport. As Ahkera brings its innovation to a global stage, the management team is keen on Asian markets. Aviation industry in Asia has observed exploding demand for air traffic, providing great market opportunities for Ahkera. As a

Drawing on the idea of selective interaction between organizations and environments, the authors examine how organizations change their traditional practices when they are exposed to new institutional environments. In the context of corporate governance change in response to financial market globalization, they argue that global institutional influence is moderated by local corporate control contexts that function as filtering mechanisms. The authors empirically analyse the adoption of a new cor
