A European Perspective on Innovation Management a Semi-structured Model for the Corporate Innovation System (CIS)
(Springer International Publishing, 2023) Pasin,M.; Aydin,M.N.; Ovaci,C.
The new paradigm of digitalization represents disruptive changes for organizations around the world. Companies are facing with highly intense competition. In order to survive and achieve sustainable competition advantage, strategic innovation management becomes essential. In this regard, one of the most significant issues is to design and apply a model that includes a clear roadmap to implement innovation principles and activities to ensure innovation capability and performance of businesses. The first part of the chapter presents state-of-the-art literature on existing innovation management terminologies and models. The other parts provide a semi-structured corporate innovation system (CIS) model and its dimensions. The proposed semi-structured CIS model is articulated in terms of the model dimensions and their instantiations along the rich associated experiences gained via best practices of the successful nationwide innovation program. The proposed CIS is a holistic model that creates value by establishing strategic, cultural, and organizational infrastructure for innovation management. The CIS model provides a roadmap from initial evaluations of innovation performance and strategy formulation to implementation. Besides, the model enables us to customize the roadmap based on six dimensions and 20 key target indicators according to company needs and structure. It is a unique model as it aims to establish a system based on the requirements and readiness of organizations. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.

How do parents deal with their children’s teething process problems? A cross-sectional study;
(AVES, 2023) Bulut,M.; Bulut, Müge; Aydin,M.N.; Pedodonti / Pedodontic
Objective: The aim of the study is to determine the methods of parents who have children between 0 and 4 years of age to deal with the problems their children encounter during the eruption process and to examine the effect of sociodemographic factors on the preferred methods. Methods: Parents with children between the ages of 0 and 4 participated in the study by answer-ing a 15-question questionnaire sent over the web, which includes the problems their children encounter during the teething period. Descriptive statistics for the data were calculated and shown as frequency (n) and percentage (%). The distribution of the participants according to gender, age group, and educational status was analyzed with Pearson chi-square and Fisher-Freeman-Halton tests, and P <,05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Of the parents, 78.3% observed symptoms that affect the general state of their children such as fever, restlessness, rash, diarrhea, ear itching, insomnia during the eruption of their primary teeth; 95.2% of them encountered local symptoms such as increased salivation, thumb sucking, gingival redness, and itching in the gingiva. The most effective solution method that was found for the eruption problems by the parents was teething rings (92,1%), cold application and massage to the area where the tooth erupted, and massage with hard vegetables and fruits. Conclusion: Parents refer many methods to solve the problems their children experience during the eruption of teeth. However, families should be informed about which of these methods are beneficial and which ones will cause a risk to their children's health. © 2023, AVES. All rights reserved.
