DETERMINANTE DE COMPOSIÇÃO DE CONSELHO DE ADMINISTRAÇÃO EM PEQUENAS E MÉDIAS EMPRESAS DE SOCIEDADE ANÔNIMA DE CAPITAL FECHADO DA REGIÃO DO ABC

O principal objetivo deste estudo é analisar os determinantes de composição de Conselho de Administração em pequenas e médias empresas de sociedade anônima de capital fechado da região do ABC paulista. A razão de iniciar este trabalho, surgiu devido à constatação de que no Brasil existem poucos artigos e dissertações que tratam de composição de Conselho e os elaborados no exterior se centralizaram na composição em termos de tamanho e tipos de diretores, de desempenho financeiro, de independência etc., mas nenhum deles focou nas determinantes de composição de pequena e média empresa. Portanto, baseando-se nas observações acima, se efetuou pesquisa de campo para responder à seguinte problemática Que determinante(s) estabelece(m) a composição de Conselho de Administração de Pequenas e Médias Empresas de Sociedade Anônima de Empresas da Região do ABC paulista? Partindo dessa problemática, se estabeleceu as seguintes hipóteses: se o poder e a influência do CEO/Presidente do Conselho em empresas de pequeno e médio porte são grandes, então existem baixas possibilidades de ter Conselheiros Externos; se houver segregação de cargos entre o CEO e o Presidente do Conselho e o CEO estiver interessado em preservar a sua atuação, então há probabilidade de escolher Conselheiros Internos; se houver segregação de cargos entre o CEO e o Presidente do Conselho e o CEO estiver interessado na eficiência, orientação e na necessidade de recursos externos, então há probabilidade de escolher Conselheiros Externos; se a empresa está no Ciclo de Vida Expansão e Maturidade- , então há possibilidades de adotarem Conselheiros Externos.(AU)

MEDLINEplus: building and maintaining the National Library of Medicine's consumer health Web service

MEDLINEplus is a Web-based consumer health information resource, made available by the National Library of Medicine (NLM). MEDLINEplus has been designed to provide consumers with a well-organized, selective Web site facilitating access to reliable full-text health information. In addition to full-text resources, MEDLINEplus directs consumers to dictionaries, organizations, directories, libraries, and clearinghouses for answers to health questions. For each health topic, MEDLINEplus includes a preformulated MEDLINE search created by librarians. The site has been designed to match consumer language to medical terminology. NLM has used advances in database and Web technologies to build and maintain MEDLINEplus, allowing health sciences librarians to contribute remotely to the resource. This article describes the development and implementation of MEDLINEplus, its supporting technology, and plans for future development.
