candidemia and candiduria in critically ill patients admitted to intensive care units in france incidence molecular Diversity Management and outcome
Intensive Care Medicine, 2008Co-Authors: Marieelisabeth Bougnoux, Guillaume Kac, Philippe Aegerter, Christophe Denfert, Jeanyves FagonAbstract:To determine the concomitant incidence, molecular Diversity, Management and outcome of nosocomial candidemia and candiduria in intensive care unit (ICU) patients in France. A 1-year prospective observational study in 24 adult ICUs. Two hundred and sixty-two patients with nosocomial candidemia and/or candiduria. Blood and urine samples were collected when signs of sepsis were present. Antifungal susceptibility of Candida strains was determined; in addition, all blood and 72% of urine C. albicans isolates were analyzed by using multi-locus sequence type (MLST). The mean incidences of candidemia and candiduria were 6.7 and 27.4/1000 admissions, respectively. Eight percent of candiduric patients developed candidemia with the same species. The mean interval between ICU admission and candidemia was 19.0 ± 2.9 days, and 17.2 ± 1.1 days for candiduria. C. albicans and C. glabrata were isolated in 54.2% and 17% of blood and 66.5% and 21.6% of urine Candida-positive cultures, respectively. Fluconazole was the most frequently prescribed agent. In all candidemic patients, the prescribed curative antifungal agent was active in vitro against the responsible identified strain. Crude ICU mortality was 61.8% for candidemic and 31.3% for candiduric patients. Seventy-five percent of the patients were infected with a unique C. albicans strain; cross-transmission between seven patients was suggested in one hospital. Candidemia is late-onset ICU-acquired infection associated with high mortality. No difference in susceptibility and genetic background were found between blood and urine strains of Candida species.

organizational fairness and Diversity Management in public organizations does fairness matter in managing Diversity
Review of Public Personnel Administration, 2014Co-Authors: Sungjoo Choi, Hal G RaineyAbstract:Globalization, migration, initiatives for social justice, and other developments have made the representation of diverse groups and relations among them an important issue for organizations in many nations. In the United States, government agencies have increasingly invested in managing demographic Diversity effectively. This study examines how perceived organizational fairness combined with Diversity Management relates to employees’ job satisfaction in public organizations. To test these relationships we analyze data drawn from the 2006 Federal Human Capital Survey (FHCS) using hierarchical regressions—hierarchical ordered logistic regressions and hierarchical linear regressions. The results indicate that in an agency where members perceive higher levels of organizational fairness, and where employees perceive that Diversity is more effectively managed, employees report higher satisfaction with their jobs. Interestingly, while high organizational fairness in association with Diversity Management efforts ...

managing Diversity in u s federal agencies effects of Diversity and Diversity Management on employee perceptions of organizational performance
Public Administration Review, 2010Co-Authors: Sungjoo Choi, Hal G RaineyAbstract:Diversity in the workplace is a central issue for contemporary organizational Management. Concomitantly, managing increased Diversity deserves greater concern in public, private, and nonprofit organizations. The authors address the effects of Diversity and Diversity Management on employee perceptions of organizational performance in U.S. federal agencies by developing measures of three variables: Diversity, Diversity Management, and perceived organizational performance. Drawing from the Central Personnel Data File and the 2004 Federal Human Capital Survey, their findings suggest that racial Diversity relates negatively to organizational performance. When moderated by Diversity Management policies and practices and team processes, however, racial Diversity correlates positively with organizational performance. Gender and age Diversity and their interactions with contextual variables produce mixed results, suggesting that gender and age Diversity reflect more complicated relationships. This article provides evidence for several benefits derived from effectively managing Diversity.

Diversity in the us federal government Diversity Management and employee turnover in federal agencies
Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory, 2009Co-Authors: Sungjoo ChoiAbstract:Diversity scholars have argued that demographic heterogeneity in work groups is associated with decreased job satisfaction and organizational commitment of employees. As a result, employees in the diverse work groups tend to show higher probability of turnover. I examine how Diversity affects job satisfaction and turnover intention of employees by analyzing the sample drawn from the Central Personnel Data File and the 2004 Federal Human Capital Survey. More specifically, the study focuses on the moderating and mediating effects of contextual factors on turnover intention of employees. To test models, I used the hierarchical regression analysis methods. The results show that job satisfaction partially mediates the moderating effects of Diversity Management and demographic context on turnover intention of employees. The findings of the moderating effects of contextual factors are somewhat mixed. Although effective Management of Diversity positively moderated job satisfaction in racially heterogeneous groups, it did not significantly affect turnover intention. In addition, ineffective Management of Diversity decreased turnover intention in racially diverse agencies, countering my expectation. The results suggest that more variables should be controlled to achieve an accurate pattern of the effects of Diversity and contextual factors on turnover.
