Abstract: Constantly changing market environment forces companies to make changes in their daily activities. This often leads to implementation of new tools that can optimize current business processes and to implement new ones if necessary. To decide on the use of new techniques, managers need relevant information. Information represents one of the most scarce and important asset of the company. Correct and complete information base helps managers to make the decisions that lead to future successful running of the business. One type of important decision making in the company is the decision making connected with information system selection. Suitably selected information system enables company ensuring error-free business processes and effective cooperation between the company departments. It enables to maintain current market position of the company or to improve it. This study describes the relationship between information, information management and selected information system. Main aim of the article is to assess the suitability of new information system implementation in the selected company. The article is prepared using literature review and useful information gathered by the expert interview with employee of the selected company. The findings may be used as a starting point for more extensive research in the area of innovation for SMEs. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

- Abstract
Abstract: Purpose: To investigate the safety and efficacy of the self-expanding Solitaire stent used during intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) for intracranial arterial occlusion (IAO) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Materials and Methods: Consecutive nonselected patients with AIS with IAO documented on computed tomographic angiography or magnetic resonance angiography and treated with IVT were included in this prospective study. Stent intervention was initiated and performed during administration of IVT without waiting for any clinical or radiologic signs of potential recanalization. Stroke severity was assessed by National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), and 90-day clinical outcome was assessed by modified Rankin scale (mRS), with a good outcome defined as an mRS score of 0–2. Recanalization was rated by thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (TICI) scale. Results: Fifty patients (mean age, 66.8 y ± 14.6) had a baseline median NIHSS score of 18.0. Overall recanalization was achieved in 94% of patients, and complete recanalization (ie, TICI 3 flow) was achieved in 72% of patients. The mean time from stroke onset to maximal recanalization was 244.2 minutes ± 87.9, with a median of 232.5 minutes. The average number of device passes was 1.5, with a mean procedure time to maximal recanalization of 49.5 minutes ± 13.0. Symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage occurred in 6% of patients. The median mRS score at 90 days was 1, and 60% of patients had a good outcome (ie, mRS score 0–2). The overall 3-month mortality rate was 14%. Conclusions: Combined revascularization with the Solitaire stent during IVT appears to be safe and effective in the treatment of acute IAO. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: Purpose: To evaluate long-term results of treatment of benign bile duct strictures. Materials and methods: From February 1994 to November 2005, 21 patients (9 men, 12 women) with median age of 50.6 years (range 27–77 years) were indicated to percutaneous treatment of benign bile duct stricture. Stricture of hepatic ducts junction resulting from thermic injury during laparoscopic cholecystectomy was indication for treatment in one patient, stricture of hepaticojejunostomy was indication for treatment in all other patients. Clinical symptoms (obstructive jaundice, anicteric cholestasis, cholangitis or biliary cirrhosis) have appeared from 3 months to 12 years after surgery. Results: Initial internal/external biliary drainage was successful in 20 patients out of 21. These 20 patients after successful initial drainage were treated by balloon dilatation and long-term internal/external drainage. Sixteen patients were symptoms free during the follow-up. The relapse of clinical symptoms has appeared in four patients 9, 12, 14 and 24 months after treatment. One year primary clinical success rate of treatment for benign bile duct stricture was 94%. Additional two patients are symptoms free after redilatation (15 and 45 months). One patient is still in treatment, one patient died during secondary treatment period without interrelation with biliary intervention. The secondary clinical success rate is 100%. Conclusion: Benign bile duct strictures of hepatic ducts junction or biliary-enteric anastomosis are difficult to treat surgically and endoscopically inaccessible. Percutaneous treatment by balloon dilatation and long-term internal/external drainage is feasible in the majority of these patients. It is minimally invasive, safe and effective.

- Abstract
Introduction: Many different factors may have an impact on clinical outcome after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS). We aimed to investigate levels of serum glycemia (GLY) within the first 48 hours after MT.Subjects and Methods: Consecutive AIS patients were enrolled in the retrospective bi-center study. Neurological deficit was assessed with National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and functional outcome after 3 months with modified Rankin scale with a score 0-2 for good outcome. Presence of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage was assessed according to the SITS- MOST criteria.Results: In total, 868 patients (442 males, mean age 69.7 ± 12.2 years) with a median of admission NIHSS 17 points were enrolled in the study and 253 (29.1%) of them were diabetics. Recanalization was reached in 758 (87.3%) patients. Patients with good outcome (412, 47.5%) had lower median of GLY (6.5 versus 7.4 mmol/L, P < .0001) within the first 48 hours after MT. Similar results were found also in diabetics (8.1 versus 9.6 mmol/L, P < .0001) and in patients with achieved recanalization (6.5 versus 7.5 mmol/L, P < .0001). Multivariate regression analysis with adjustment for potential confounders showed median of GLY (P = .0001, odds ratio: 0.830, 95% confidence interval: 0.755-0.913) as a predictor of good outcome after MT.Conclusion: Lower levels of GLY within the first 48 hours after MT may be associated with better functional outcome after 3 months.

Long-term time series are increasingly used to assess the effects of global change on plant community diversity and to guide management of target plant communities. However, historical biodiversity data may contain neglected sources of error that can have a significant impact on the results and their interpretation. In our study, we focus on historical sampling error, a source of potential bias in long-term biodiversity assessments that has not been systematically addressed. We resampled two historical datasets of a different origin in the floodplain forests of the Czech Republic, with 534 vegetation plots originally sampled in the 1950s and 1960s. We compared temporal trends in alpha diversity and Ellenberg indicator values (EIVs) between the two parallel surveys. To assess compositional differences, we compared temporal changes in species frequencies. Alpha diversity increased by 9.3 % in one resurvey, but decreased by an average of 30.8 % in the second resurvey. The distribution of EIVs for plots also differed, indicating that each resurvey covered a different part of the environmental gradient. We conclude that preferential historical sampling of the vegetation-environment continuum and species omission may have contributed to the differences in biodiversity and environmental change between the datasets. Our study shows that historical sampling error can have a significant impact on assessments of long-term biodiversity trends. We recommend that historical reference datasets should be critically assessed for potential sources of error in assessments of environmental change and management objectives. • Here we estimate the impact of the historical sampling error in long-term vegetation resurveys. • We show that the influence of historical sampling error, which has not yet been addressed, can be a serious problem. • The resurvey of historical datasets in the same vegetation type and region can lead to different results regarding biodiversity trends and signals of environmental change.

Purpose: Evaluation of 6-year results of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) treatment by Ella stent-grafts with regard to safety and effectivity in relation to morphology of the aneurysm.Methods: From a group of 172 patients with AAA, in whom elective endovascular treatment was considered, 120 of them (69.8%) were found to be suitable for this type of therapy. The bifurcated type of stent-graft was implanted in 97 patients, uniiliacal type in 19 patients and only four patients were found to be suitable for tubular type of stent-graft. Additional necessary procedures (internal iliac artery occlusion or contralateral common iliac artery occlusion in a group of patients with uniiliacal type of stent-graft) were performed surgically during the stent-graft implantation. CT and US controls were performed at 3, 6 and 12 months after implantation, later every 12 months.Results: Primary technical success was achieved in 109 of the 120 patients (91%). Primary endoleak was recorded in 11 patients (primary endoleak type Ia in seven patients, type Ib in three patients and type IIIa in one patient). Assisted technical success after reintervention or spontaneous seal was 98.3%. Surgical conversion was indicated in two patients (1.7%). Perioperative mortality rate was 3.3%. Total average follow-up period was 20.7 months (range from 2 to 60 months). In nine patients (7.5%) secondary endoleak type II was found at control CT or US, in three patients partial thrombosis of the stent-graft was found. There was no aneurysm rupture during follow-up.Conclusion: Treatment of AAA with Ella stent-graft system is effective and safe. Bifurcated stent-graft is the most frequently used type. Uniiliacal type of stent-graft is used by us only in cases of complicated morphology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published
