Entrapment neuropathy of the deep peroneal nerve, also recognized as anterior tibial nerve, typically occurs at the anterior ankle and dorsal foot.

BackgroundThis paper presents a system for classification of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) based on fuzzy rules and the trained neural network.MethodsFuzzy rules and neural network parameters are defined according to Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) and Global Initiative for chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) guidelines. For neural network training more than one thousand medical reports obtained from database of the company CareFusion were used. Afterwards the system was validated on 455 patients by physicians from the Clinical Centre University of Sarajevo.ResultsOut of 170 patients with asthma, 99.41% of patients were correctly classified. In addition, 99.19% of the 248 COPD patients were correctly classified. The system was 100% successful on 37 patients with normal lung function. Sensitivity of 99.28% and specificity of 100% in asthma and COPD classification were obtained.ConclusionOur neuro-fuzzy system for classification of asthma and COPD uses a combination of spirometry and Impulse Oscillometry System (IOS) test results, which in the very beginning enables more accurate classification.Additionally, using bronchodilatation and bronhoprovocation tests we get a complete patient's dynamic assessment, as opposed to the solution that provides a static assessment of the patient.

The dominant feature of today's business environment is accelerated dynamics and dramatic change intensity which significantly influences the life cycle of strategy, business orientation and individual employee operations. These trends require continuous adjustment of business philosophy through innovation in various contexts acting as key drivers for successful handling of change and implementation of innovative ideas. Recent research shows that 39.9% of employed citizens within EU operate in the services sector while it accounts for 46.2% of added value creation in the EU market. Telecommunications are one of the major segments of services sector and people working for telecom operators represent the crucial asset in innovation management in the particular industry. Organizational behavior in terms of innovation is determined by various factors, whose number, direction and intensity is not yet clearly defined. Research aims to explore the impact of job satisfaction on innovative capacity of telecom operators in Bosnia and Herzegovina evaluating efficacy of HRM (human resource management) practices in the process of creating and implementing innovation. Methodology consists of two appropriate instruments for evaluation of job satisfaction and employee innovative behavior and primary data was analyzed using linear regression method. Limitations of the study are discussed and recommendations for future research of job satisfaction impact on employee innovative behavior are given. Practical implications on how to stimulate innovation in the organizational context are states in the discussion and conclusion.

According to the resource-based view, sources of competitive advantage begin with the notion that differences in performance are fundamentally due to the distinctive resources and capabilities that are valuable, rare, inimitable and nonsubstitutable (Barney, 2007; Wu et al., 2006). Information technology (IT) as a resource of the company has the increasing importance for the researches and managers. Research on the IT value within organizations and firms' IT capabilities have expanded over the past decade (Perez-Lopez et. al., 2012). Tippins and Sohi (2003) in their study defined IT capability as the existence of IT infrastructure, IT knowledge and IT operations within company. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the impact of IT capability on firms' innovativeness and the relationship among IT capability, firms' innovativeness and business performance. The study uses survey data from managers and structural equation modelling to assess the relationships between IT capability, firms' innovativeness and business performance. This study finds that both IT capability and innovation capability play important role in achieving greater business performance. The findings indicate that managers should focus on development of the IT function within company, taking into account importance of IT investment as well as IT knowledge, and promotion of innovativeness.

The paper presents results of research related to the standpoints of users about the main attributes that risk management software should have. This research was based on a survey of appropriate number of companies in Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. The authors developed the questionnaire in order to investigate the standpoints of risk managers, quality managers and others in charge of risk management, about functionality they expect risk management software should support. Namely, in today's global environment, managers and risk managers across all lines of business are accountable for a sustainable risk framework. Adequate software support enables them to take an innovative, risk-based approach to governance and compliance, to gain a holistic, enterprisewide view of risk exposure and near-real-time risk management and monitoring.Software support for risk management process should enable organisations with efficient risk evaluation and assessment, continuous monitoring, reporting and easier improvement of the process. Results of research show the main attributes that risk management software should have in order to fulfill user expectations. Finally, the paper provides some important guidelines and suggestions for risk management software development and improvement.

Corruption in the public sector is problem that almost all countries in the world face with, in greater or lesser extent. During couple of past years, Bosnia and Herzegovina has had a constant growth of corruption. According to the Corruption Perception Index, Bosnia and Herzegovina has moved from 72nd position in 2013 to 80th position in 2014, with scores that had led it nearly to zones with high levels of corruption. Due to the fact that corruption in the public sector discourages innovation and entrepreneurship, and thus leaves extremely harmful effects on the entire economy of the country, at the end of 2013 research was conducted on a sample of 208 public officials and experts in the fields of accounting and auditing. The objective of the research was to determine the extent to which specific accounting tools can contribute to the suppression, or at least reducing, corruption in the public sector of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Research results showed that implementation of the program budgeting and responsibility accounting, through the efficient allocation of scarce budgetary resources between programs and the establishment of public accountability, can help the fight against corruption, improve the business climate and innovations, and thus contribute to the development of the whole country.
