TL;DR: In this paper, a study was conducted to empirically examine the extent to which businesses use relationship quality perceptions to differentiate their qualified vendors, and the findings support the notion that relationship quality is a higher-order construct that can be used as a basis for developing vendor stratification systems.
Abstract: Companies implement preferred supplier programs to reduce their vendor relationships to a reasonable few. Consequently, vendors who do not effectively manage their customer-based relationships are strong candidates for deletion from a customer’s list of long-term suppliers. The emergence of preferred supplier programs suggests that businesses are beginning to formally recognize and reward differences between their qualified vendors. Vendor stratification is proposed as a framework for understanding the evolution of preferred vendor programs. With the growing interest in relationship marketing, a study was conducted to empirically examine the extent to which businesses use relationship quality perceptions to differentiate their qualified vendors. The findings support the notion that relationship quality is a higher-order construct that can be used as a basis for developing vendor stratification systems. The article concludes with a discussion of the managerial and research implications of the study findings.

TL;DR: Results are consistent with the notion of a coupling of the oxidative environment in AD brain and increased risk of developing this disorder and strongly support a causative role of Abeta(1-42)-induced oxidative stress in AD neurodegeneration.

TL;DR: The optimal annealing temperature (TaOPT) values for several primer-template pairs are experimentally determined and a method for its calculation is developed and found to be a function of the melting temperatures of the less stable primer- template pair and of the product.
Abstract: In the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, DNA is amplified in vitro by a series of polymerization cycles consisting of three temperature-dependent steps: DNA denaturation, primer-template annealing, and DNA synthesis by a thermostable DNA polymerase. The purity and yield of the reaction products depend on several parameters, one of which is the annealing temperature (Ta). At both sub- and super-optimal Ta values, non-specific products may be formed, and the yield of products is reduced. Optimizing the Ta is especially critical when long products are synthesized or when total genomic DNA is the substrate for PCR. In this article we experimentally determine the optimal annealing temperature (TaOPT) values for several primer-template pairs and develop a method for its calculation. The TaOPT is found to be a function of the melting temperatures of the less stable primer-template pair and of the product. The fact that experimental and calculated TaOPT values agree to within 0.7 degree C eliminates the need for determining TaOPT experimentally. Synthesis of DNA fragments shorter than 1 kb is more efficient if a variable Ta is used, such that the Ta is higher in each consecutive cycle.

TL;DR: The data demonstrate that inhibition of Akt activation may play a crucial role in the induction of apoptosis by celecoxib, supported by studies showing that overexpression of constitutively active Akt protects PC-3 cells from Celecoxib-induced apoptosis.

TL;DR: This paper examined whether and how alternative presentation formats affect nonprofessional investors' processing of comprehensive income information, specifically, information disclosing the volatility of unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities.
Abstract: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 requires companies to report comprehensive income in a primary financial statement, but allows its presentation in either a statement of comprehensive income or a statement of stockholders' equity. In an experiment, we examine whether and how alternative presentation formats affect nonprofessional investors' processing of comprehensive-income information, specifically, information disclosing the volatility of unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities. The results show that investors' judgments of corporate and management performance reflect the volatility of comprehensive income only when it is presented in a statement of comprehensive income. We provide evidence consistent with our psychology-based framework that these findings occur because format affects how nonprofessional investors weight comprehensive-income information and not whether they acquire this information or how they evaluate it. Key Words: Comprehensive income; Nonprofessional investors; Presentation format; Volatility
