No full textMarket research in the Vietnamese marine sector Case study of eNav forecast - a navigation application developed by NASCA Geosystems
No full textThe objective of this paper was to identify the level of demand in the Vietnamese fisheries sector for e-Nav – weather and sea condition forecast application devel-oped by NASCA Geosystems. NASCA Geosystems is a small company of five people operating in the field of information technology consulting. Management at NASCA Geosystems wanted to study the Vietnamese market in order to expand their operation in Vietnam.
In this thesis, both qualitative and quantitative methods were applied. The quantitative data was gathered from the official statistic sources namely the General Statistics Office of Vietnam, Indexmundi, the United Nations and the World Bank. The qualitative research includes an email interview with the director of NASCA Geosystems and a personal interview with Mr. Tran Dinh Lan from the Institute of Marine Environment and Resources.
The result of the study showed that there is a high demand in the Vietnamese fisheries sector. Even though the fishermen are not ready to give up the traditional boats and equipment and they usually lack the required technological skills, Vietnam can be still a promising market if NASCA Geosystems finds an appropriate local partner.
The author recommends that NASCA Geosystems continue to advertise their products through the company’s website. At the same time, it is suggested that they search actively for a local partner who will then distribute their products in Vietnam. Moreover, NASCA Geosystems is recommended to pay more attention on the marketing activitiesFurther research should be carried out into the Viet-namese fishery sector
Topical immunomodulator therapy with squaric acid dibutylester (sadbe) is a disease modifying treatment for severe alopecia areata (aa): results of open-label, paired-comparison, clinical trial
No full textSevere alopecia areata (AA) may have a chronic relapsing course and is often resistant to current treatments. Objectives: The aim of our study was to evaluate whether topical immunotherapy with squaric acid dibutylester (SADBE) is able to improve the course of severe AA and to reduce the severity of relapses. Methods: Fifty-four patients affected by severe AA treated with SADBE who were followed for a period of at least 2 years were selected as the study group. Data collected were compared with those of a matched control group of 54 patients who did not receive any treatment. Student's t-test, analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Pearson's chi-squared test were utilized for data analysis. Results: At the end of therapy, in comparison with the control group, the treatment group showed a statistically significant (p<0.001) improvement. At follow-up, there was no significant change in relapse rate (treated 44% vs control 52%). However, relapses in the treated group were significantly less severe compared with the control group (p<0.001). Conclutions: Our data suggest that topical SADBE represents a valid therapeutic option in severe AA, and may prove to be disease modifying
