The differential impact of IFRS adoption on aspects of seasoned equity offerings in the UK and France by Harakeh, Mostafa

“…As a result of the lower levels of earnings management and information asymmetry, we predict and find that the market reaction to issuing SEOs improves significantly for high-divergence firms following IFRS. Given that equity financing becomes less costly, we find that the propensity to issue new SEOs increases among high-divergence firms after IFRS adoption. …”

Emotional Reactions to Unequal Payment: The Impact of Meritocratic Ideology and Salary Negotiability by Maitner, Angela

“…However, learning that a system is non-negotiable violates expectations associated with meritocratic beliefs, and may therefore increase negative emotion. In two experiments investigating participants’ emotional reactions to payment systems, the more participants endorsed meritocratic ideologies, the less anger they felt when unequal treatment appeared negotiable. …”

Staging and preoperative evaluation of upper gastrointestinal malignancies by Abdalla, Eddie

“…In gastric cancer, the region of nodal metastasis has been abandoned in favor of the number of lymph nodes containing metastasis, which predicts outcome more accurately—patients with more than 15 positive lymph nodes have an outcome comparable to those with M disease. Increasing consideration is being given to the subclassification of tumors near the GEJ into types based on anatomical position, although this staging scheme (“Full-size image (<1 K)denocarcinoma of the Full-size image (<1 K)sophagoFull-size image (<1 K)astric junction” or AEG type) has not yet been universally adopted. …”
