Abstract

Herein, joint recommendations for diagnosis and treatment of vulvo-vaginal atrophy (VVA) in women in the peri- and post-menopausal phases from the Societa Italiana per la Menopausa (SIM) and the Societa Italiana della Terza Eta (SIGiTE) are presented. The recommendations are aimed at all healthcare personnel caring for women in the menopausal transition or postmenopausal phase, and are also intended to raise awareness of VVA. Recent data clearly indicate VVA is a highly prevalent condition among postmenopausal women, and that the vast majority of women with VVA are not adequately treated. In reality, diagnosis of VVA is simple and largely clinical. Many types of treatments are available for VVA, ranging from preventive education measures to local non-hormonal therapies, local agents that modulate hormonal receptors and systemic as well as laser therapy and radiofrequency. Regardless of the therapeutic approach adopted, greater communication between the physician and the woman with VVA should be actively encouraged. This is also in light of the difficulty of talking about the VVA and related disorders. Greater communication also encourages adequate therapy and thus minimizes the impact of VVA on the quality of life of the woman and her partner.

4. Investigating the perceptual aspect of sales training

Author

Subjects

Abstract

Management seeks ways to hasten salespeople towards greater productivity. Sales training is a common avenue for enhancing salespersons' performance. However, relatively little formal knowledge exists concerning how salespeople perceive and transfer formal training materials. This study proposes and examines complementary models intended to shed light on how training attitudes and transfer are determined and how they relate to salespersons' performance. The models are evaluated using a single company sample of domestic industrial salespeople. Initial findings support significant and strong relationships between transfer of training and sales performance. Further, transfer of training appears related to individual traits and beliefs. Added findings fail to support a direct relationship between training attitudes and performance., 'High-end salespeople believe they know most of the training [material] already. They believe they're more productive in front of customers than they are in the training room and that it's [...]

6. An empirical study of ex ante risk premiums for the electric utility industry

Author

Subjects

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between interest rates and utility equity risk premiums. We found that an inverse relationship exists, with the equity risk premium changing by 37 basis points for each 100 basis-point change in the 30-year Treasury bond yield. The inverse relationship is stable; however, changes in the relative risk of debt and equity securities produce shifts in the level of risk premiums, regardless of the behavior of Treasury bond yields. We also found that the equity risk premiums were consistently positive over the study period, which conforms to the basic risk/return tenet of finance. (Reprinted by permission of the publisher.), Several studies published in recent years support an inverse relationship between utility equity risk premiums and interest rates during the first half of the 1980s. Our study provides a more [...]
