The purpose of this paper is to enhance current practices in business-to-business (B2B) customer churn prediction modelling. Following the recent trend from accuracy-based to profit-driven evaluation business-to-customer churn prediction, we present a novel expected maximum profit measure for B2B customer churn (EMPB), which is used to demonstrate ...

Multiple myeloma (MM) cells derive proliferative signals from the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment via exosomal crosstalk. Therapeutic strategies targeting this crosstalk are still lacking. Bortezomib resistance in MM cells is linked to elevated expression of xCT (the subunit of system Xc(-) ). Extracellular glutamate released by system Xc(-) can ...
Purpose Research on effort-reward "imbalance" (ERI) has gained popularity in the occupational health literature, and authors typically use effort-reward ratios (ERRs) to study this phenomenon. This article provides a methodological and theoretical critique of this literature and suggestions on how future research can better study joint effects of e...

Muscle strength imbalance in the shoulder region can be considered as a predisposing factor in the development of movement dysfunctions, possibly leading to overuse injuries. Repetitive overhead throwing, performed in sports, may result in muscle imbalance between the external (ER) and internal (IR) rotators. Muscle strength measured with an isokin...

For early prevention of cardiovascular disease, early detection and risk factor insights are necessary. The autonomic balance reflects cardiovascular risk and can be measured by heart rate variability (HRV). Therefore, our purpose is to examine associations between HRV and the energy-related biomarkers leptin and adiponectin in children. Participan...
Purpose Asymmetrical loading patterns are commonplace in football sports. Our aim was to examine the influence of training age and limb function on lower-body musculoskeletal morphology. Methods Fifty-five elite football athletes were stratified into less experienced (≤3 yr; n = 27) and more experienced (>3 yr; n = 28) groups by training age. All a...
