These problems arise, beneath a lot of advantages, from the model of business process management which developed within the last few years. This model gets more and more implemented to the larger industry enterprises and make new and great demands on executive work. Business process management models contains, beside the traditional economic aim constructions, the integrated maLeadershipPhilosophyManagementLeadershipPhilosophy.Management.303.3401Klussmann Wolfram1499554MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785110503321Philosophy of leadership3725677UNINA04801nam 2200745 a 450 991096391920332120251017110108.09786613213389978030921710103092171059781283213387128321338997803091864140309186412(CKB)2550000000042937(SSID)ssj0000536501(PQKBManifestationID)11324343(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000536501(PQKBWorkID)10546712(PQKB)11511817(MiAaPQ)EBC3378797(Au-PeEL)EBL3378797(CaPaEBR)ebr10488617(CaONFJC)MIL321338(OCoLC)753974802(Perlego)4738432(DNLM)1574665(BIP)33846122(EXLCZ)99255000000004293720110504d2011 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrExplaining divergent levels of longevity in high-income countries /Eileen M.

This difference is particularly notable given that the United States spends more on health care than any other nation. Concerned about this divergence, the National Institute on Aging asked the National Research Council to examine evidence on its possible causes. According to Explaining Divergent Levels of Longevity in High-Income Countries , the nation's history of heavy smoking is a major reason why lifespans in the United States fall short of those in many other high-income nations. Evidence suggests that current obesity levels play a substantial part as well. The book reports that lack of universal access to health care in the U.S. also has increased mortality and reduced life expectancy, though this is a less significant factor for those over age 65 because of Medicare access. For the main causes of death at older ages -- cancer and cardiovascular disease -- available indicators do not suggest that the U.S. health care system is failing to prevent deaths that would be averted elsewhere. In fact, cancer detection and survival appear to be better in the U.S. than in most other high-income nations, and survival rates following a heart attack also are favorable. Explaining Divergent Levels of Longevity in High-Income Countries identifies many gaps in research. For instance, while lung cancer deaths are a reliable marker of the damage from smoking, no clear-cut marker exists for obesity, physical inactivity, social integration, or other risks considered in this book. Moreover, evaluation of these risk factors is based on observational studies, which -- unlike randomized controlled trials -- are subject to many biases.Life expectancyLongevityLife expectancyUnited StatesLongevityUnited StatesLife expectancy.Longevity.Life expectancyLongevity304.6/45Crimmins Eileen M1811399Preston Samuel H267628Cohen Barney1959-1791277National Research Council (U.S.).Panel on Understanding Divergent Trends in Longevity in High-Income Countries.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910963919203321Explaining divergent levels of longevity in high-income countries4364702UNINA
