This research is realized in city of Peja, a city in the western part of Republic of Kosovo. In this research are included 40 small enterprises (27 in the center of the city and 13 in the periphery). From them 37 enterprises were established from familiar-individual capital, whereas only three enterprises were corporations. This research is led from two correlation hypotheses .The first hypothesis of this research is:”Strategic management has a positive relation with the empowering of the short-term and long-term objectives of the small enterprises”, is made correlative analysis and we have the statistical production [r= .502**, p smaller than .001], which supports the first hypothesis. Thus a genuine strategic management affects in the empowering and the reflection of the short-term and long-term objectives of small enterprises. The second hypothesis of this research was;”Business strategy affects in the rise of financial indicators”, is made the correlative analysis and we have this statistical production [r= -.220, p smaller than .172, a result that is not significant and it does not support the second hypothesis of this research.

The main purpose of the presented research was to investigate whether Slovene hotels that have a business strategy and strategic management accounting are more successful in comparison with those that still do not have a long-term business strategy and strategic management accounting.Hotels that have a business strategy and strategic management accounting are expected to be more successful in comparison with those that still do not have a long-term business strategy. Questionnaires were distributed to the management of selected Slovene hotels. The Slovene budgeting practices were assessed in Slovene large hotels, which have more than 100 rooms. The analysis was performed at the beginning of the years 2004 and 2008, respectively. Budgeting practices in Slovene hotels were assessed by analyzing the extent to which managers used strategic management accounting and the extent to which business strategies were implemented. The analysis provides evidence that hotels with a long-term business strategy are more successful than those that that have a short-term strategy, or are even without one. Although an improvement in the field of continuous budgeting in the five-year period can be ascertained, only a minority of Slovene hotels uses standard cost as a basis for budgeting. This was the first study that ascertained discrepancies between Slovenian budgeting practice and foreign best practices, which is undoubtedly of great interest for decision-makers on the level of individual hotel.

AbstractObjectiveThe effects of earthquakes on ischemic heart disease (IHD) have often been reported. At a population level, this study examined short-term (60-day) and long-term (5-year) hospitalization events for IHD after the 2008 Sichuan earthquake.MethodsWe examined the 10-year medical hospitalization records on IHD in the city of Deyang provided by the Urban Employee Basic Health Insurance program.ResultsEvaluation of 19,083 hospitalizations showed a significantly lower proportional number and cost of hospitalizations in the 60 days after the earthquake (P<0.001). Hospitalizations were 27.81% lower than would have been expected in a normal year; costs were 32.53% lower. However, in the 5 years after the earthquake, the age-adjusted annual incidence of hospitalization increased significantly (P<0.001). In the fifth year after the earthquake, it was significantly higher in the extremely hard-hit area than in the hard-hit area (P<0.01).ConclusionAfter the 2008 earthquake, short- and long-term patterns of hospitalization for IHD changed greatly, but in different ways. Our findings suggest that medical resources for IHD should be distributed dynamically over time after an earthquake. (Disaster Med Public Health Preparedness. 2016;10:203–210)

The aim of this article is to look at strategic management of a large city from the two different perspectives: theoretical and empirical. In the first part the author focused on theoretical fundaments of management, particularly of the public strategic management. The second part presented the characteristics of the process of strategic management based on empirical data: two strategic documents adopted in Katowice over the last number of years were analysed. One of these documents is a currently binding one and the other is of an archival character. Referring to both the systematics and the means of preparation of these documents, as well as to their content, the author showed their common elements and the transformation which have occurred over the last number of years concerning the manner and approach to strategic management in the city. Based on documents analysis, the author answered the question asked in the introduction, which is whether in relation to the long-term policy of Katowice can one talk about change or continuation.

The purpose of this study is to determine the levels of anxiety and depression in patients aged between 18 and 70 years, hospitalized with chronic kidney disease in a clinic entity of the city of Barranquilla. The type of research is descriptive, presenting the information through the indicators and statistical tables, the Hospital Scale of Anxiety and Depression of, Zigmond &amp; Smith (1983), which evaluates the detection of depressive and anxious disorders in the non-psychiatric hospital context. The application of the Scale was performed in the hospital entity of the city of Barranquilla to 50 patients with Chronic Kidney Disease. The results they are beneficial in the short term, because they create new research proposals applied to another population group diagnosed with chronic diseases, especially for the evaluation and intervention in the area of health psychology. In the long term, new theories, methods of intervention and evaluation applied to the population of patients with chronic kidney disease will be studied. In the same way, the results show marked trends related to depression, an aspect that is consistent with the deterioration that affects the individual in the course of the disease and also show a positive correlation of the study variables, depression and anxiety disorders in patients with CKD can be due to a symptomatology or consequence of psychological burnout.

In a general way, micro and small enterprises (MPEs) are attractive for their rentability, but, because of some deficiencies in short term financial administration, they work in a high risk of bankruptcy. In this context, this paper aimed to identify and analyze the acting of strategical groups of MPEs according to the methodologies and practices in the working capital conduction, taking as reference the city of Viçosa, MG. In this paper, in which it was used the exploratory quantitive approach, 172 MPEs proprietors were interviewed, and this fact, through the factorial analyses followed by the cluster analyses, enables the identification of three groups with distincts characteristics, basing in restrictive aspects of risk of bankruptcy in these enterprises: low risk, medium risk, and high risk. Despite of the fact that it was noticeable a low risk of bankruptcy group, it is evident the importance of the short term financial administration in the region studied, since the maintenance of a correct administration is far from being unannimous because of the classification of nearly 30% of the enterprises in medium and high risk of bankruptcy groups. To finish, the identification of the enterprises with similar strategies and the best practices used in the short term financial administration can be an aplication instrument in the enterprises classified in medium and high risk of bankruptcy, since some conditioning factors of the risk of bankruptcy were identified.

Blue Lake, the principal water supply for the City of Mount Gambier (South Australia), is contaminated with nitrate (NO3–) from polluted groundwater. Using existing data, a study was undertaken to determine the past load of NO3– from groundwater entering the lake and to forecast future trends in lake NO3– concentration. Groundwater NO3– loads for the 1971–1997 period were estimated with an inverse model, which combined the long-term record for NO3– concentration in the lake with a simple NO3– mass-balance. Model results show that the load of NO3– from groundwater (18–24 metric tons (t) year–1 as N) was by far the largest source to Blue Lake between 1971 and 1997. Sinks for NO3– included pumping withdrawal (10–14 t year–1), in-lake consumption (7–10 t year–1), and groundwater outflow (0–1.8 t year–1). The NO3– concentration in incoming groundwater (4–7 mg N L–1) appears to have increased slowly but steadily during the 1971–1997 period (at a rate varying between 0.037 and 0.070 mg N L–1 year–1). By assuming that the rate of increase in groundwater NO3– concentration will remain constant, a forecast for lakewater NO3– concentration was made for the 1998–2028 period. Lakewater NO3– concentration should increase from the contemporary ~3.5 mg N L–1 to 4 or 5 mg N L–1 by 2028. In the short term (decades), the rate of pumping withdrawal will be the main determinant of NO3– concentration in the lake through its impact on the rate of groundwater inflow and the lake water residence time. Although the drinking water guideline for NO3– (11. 3 mg N L–1) may not be exceeded in the short term (decades), it may be exceeded in the longer term (centuries) as NO3– concentration in the neighbouring aquifer adjusts to the contemporary land use.
