Abstract The ideal practice routine for screening mammography would optimize performance metrics and minimize costs, while also maximizing patient satisfaction. The main approaches to screening mammography interpretation include batch offline, non-batch offline, interrupted online, and uninterrupted online reading, each of which has its own advantages and drawbacks. This article reviews the current literature on approaches to screening mammography interpretation, potential effects of newer technologies, and promising artificial intelligence resources that could improve workflow efficiency in the future.

The entry defines Gestalt therapy, including brief history, major influences, contributors, and current status of Gestalt therapy in terms of memberships and journals. Key concepts are outlined, and the effectiveness and potential for Gestalt therapy's status as an evidence-based practice is framed in relation to recent overviews of empirical research and to what is needed in the future for further research. While the current literature in social work does not reflect a strong emphasis on Gestalt, we emphasize some of the philosophical and ethical compatibilities between these approaches.

This paper examines the role of the imperial and colonial governments in the formulation of policy towards the Nigerian palm oil export industry between 1939 and 1949. It argues that for most of the war years colonial officials in Nigeria accepted that metropolitan needs and conditions should dictate policy in the oil palm produce industry. However, towards the end of the war, they began to question whether policies centred around the requirements of the metropole would preserve the future competitiveness of the industry. Thereafter, they pressed for measures which gave priority to the problems and necessities of the local industry and the colonial economy. While colonial policy was sensitive to the concerns of imperial and local government officials, for most of the period under review it was reluctant, and on occasions, unable to accommodate the measures necessary to harmonize imperial and colonial goals. Consequently, the anticipated expansion in palm oil exports failed to materialize and the future competitiveness of the industry remained in doubt.This article fills an important void in the current literature on the Nigerian palm oil export industry. To date insufficient attention has been paid to the thinking within imperial and colonial government circles which underpinned the policies adopted in the industry during World War II and the early post-war years, and which led to the failure of policy makers to achieve their objectives. Moreover, the current literature ignores the vigorous debate between the Colonial Office and the Nigerian colonial government, and among colonial government officials, over the best means by which the needs of the local palm oil industry could be reconciled with the demands of the metropole, especially between 1942 and 1949.

The article is an attempt to introduce into the school practice a new interdisciplinary trend – ecological humanities. As we observe the return on Earth, ongoing youth climate strikes and students’ increased interest taken in global warming, reading of the current literature canon should be profiled in order to emphasise the relationship between a human and the environment. Additionally, it is essential to introduce new content to education, as it will enable a critique of human arrogance and short-sighted approach, as well as a more profound reflection on the future.

The current operational environment for organizations is changing, which has effects on IT functions and IT activities. Various forms of networks, collaborations, and alliances are operational models, which organizations are using to an increasing extent. This reality has brought with it a need for improved IT governance (ITG). ITG research for inter-organizational arrangements will be needed. In the research, the target is to identify the current state of the inter-organizational ITG research among the information systems (IS) domain. The literature review covers academic articles and conference proceedings during this millennium. The findings of the current literature review reveal that interest towards ITG research is still quite limited. The future view of inter-organizational ITG research is quite clear: more research will be needed in the inter-organizational area, which is the current playground for several organizations today.

Background: good nutrition for mothers since pre-conception and conception is an important preparation for the health of the fetus and the child in the future.Objective: The purpose in writing this literature review is to explain argumentatively how nutrition from the time of conception can affect the child's biological health.Discussion: The results of the literature review show evidence that nutrition from the time of conception can affect the child's biological health. Several articles show a mechanism that explains the possible mechanisms of nutritional influence as conception on the child's biological health as in the future as Barker Hyphothesis or fetal programming. However, the data obtained to date is still not fully convincing. It is necessary to develop a long or longitudinal and experimental research that can guarantee the truth of the theory. Conclusion: the argument that nutrition from the time of conception is believed to affect the biological health of children in the future is increasingly stronger in the current literature although evidence of experimental research results still need to be accumulated to ensure the truth.ABSTRAK Latar Belakang: gizi yang baik bagi ibu sejak masa pra konsepsi dan konsepsi merupakan persiapan yang penting untuk kesehatan janin dan anak dimasa dating. Tujuan: tujuan dalam penulisan literature review ini adalah untuk menjelaskan secara argumentative bagaimana gizi sejak masa konsepsi dapat mempengaruhi kesehatan biologis anak. Pembahasan: hasil literature review menunjukkan bukti bahwa gizi sejak masa konsepsi dapat mempengaruhi kesehatan biologis anak. Beberapa artikel menunjukkan mekanisme yang menjelaskan kemungkinan mekanisme pengaruh gizi saat konsepsi terhadap kesehatan biologis anak dimasa datang seperti halnya Barker Hyphothesis atau fetal programming. Namun begitu, data yang diperoleh hingga saat ini masih belum meyakinkan sepenuhnya. Untuk itu perlu dikembangkan penelitian yang panjang atau longitudinal dan eksperimental yang dapat menggaransi kebenaran teori tersebut.Kesimpulan: argumentasi bahwa gizi sejak masa konsepsi diyakini berpengaruh terhadap kesehatan biologis anak dimasa depan semakin menguat dalam literature terkini walaupun bukti hasil penelitian eksperimental masih perlu banyak diakumulasikan untuk memastikan kebenarannya. ABSTRAKLatar Belakang: gizi yang baik bagi ibu sejak masa pra konsepsi dan konsepsi merupakan persiapan yang penting untuk kesehatan janin dan anak dimasa dating.

The relationship between sport and the natural environment is bidirectional and critical to the production of sport products, events, and experiences. Researchers have studied sport and the natural environment within the various subdisciplines of sport management. However, given the changing climate and mounting public concern for the environment, there is pressure to reconsider the relevance and significance of the natural environment, which is taken for granted in managerial contexts. Reflecting the importance of the natural environment, the robustness of the current literature, and the potential for the future, we propose a new subdiscipline of sport management called sport ecology. Thus, we proposed, in this paper, a definition for sport ecology, (re)introduced key concepts related to this subdiscipline (e.g., sustainability, green), and highlighted the leading research that serves as the foundation for sport ecology. We concluded with a discussion on the ways sport ecology can inform—and be informed by—other subdisciplines of sport management.

The objective of this article was to propose a framework to explore the infrastructures required to implement digital banking as previous studies have merely sufficed to introducing its different aspects. Since digital banking is viewed as the future model of banking industry and many banks around the globe are investing in the development of their digital capabilities, designing and implementing a corresponding model can result in further adaptability of banks with emerging necessities of the banking industry. Thus, this article is an effort to identify the prerequisites and facilitators of digital banking through reviewing the current literature and incorporating the views of industry experts. It is a qualitative research with the use of grounded theory, in which unstructured and semi-structures interviews were used for the purpose of data collection. The results show there are seven concepts and three key categories that should be considered in the domain of digital banking.

Osteosarcoma (OS) is a relatively rare tumor of bone with a worldwide incidence of 3.4 cases per million people per year. For most of the twentieth century, five-year survival rates for classic OS were very low. In the 1970s, the introduction of adjuvant chemotherapy in the treatment of OS increased survival rates dramatically. The current article reviews the various types of OS and analyzes the clinical and histological features. We also examine historical and current literature to present a succinct review of methods for diagnosis and staging, as well as treatment, and we also discuss some of the future directions of treatment.
