Journal Article
(2015). Is accurate and reliable blood loss estimation the 'crucial step' in early detection of postpartum haemorrhage?: An integrative review of the literature. BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 230. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12884-015-0653-6

Background Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is the leading cause of maternal mortality in low-income countries and severe maternal morbidity in many high-income countries. Poor outcomes following PPH are often attributed to delays in the recognition and...

Combined Effects of Capacity and Time on Fares: Insights from the Yield Management of a Low-Cost Airline (2015)
Journal Article
(2015). Combined Effects of Capacity and Time on Fares: Insights from the Yield Management of a Low-Cost Airline. Review of Economics and Statistics, 900-915. https://doi.org/10.1162/REST_a_00451

Based on two strands of theoretical research, this paper provides new evidence on how fares are jointly affected by in-flight seat availability and purchasing date. As capacity-based theories predict, it emerges that fares monotonically and substanti...
