1. Preoperative concomitant chemoradiotherapy in esophageal cancerBoštjan Šeruga, Mihael Sok, Janez Eržen, Jože Jerman, Boris Jančar, Branko Zakotnik, 2006, original scientific article Abstract: Background. Currently primary treatment options for esophageal cancer are surgery only or concomitant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and the long-term survivalof patients with locally advanced disease is rare. Preoperative concomitant CRT seems to be beneficial, mostly in patients who achieve a complete pathologic response (pCR) after CRT. In this retrospective analysis the efficiency and toxicity of preoperative CRT in patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer was analysed as well as the influence of pCR on thesuraival. Patients and metkods From 1996 to 2002 41 patients with locoregionally confined esophageal cancerwere treated with cisplatin 75 mgžm2 and 5-FU 1000 mgžm2 as 4 day contonuous infusion starting on days 1. and 22. with concorrtitant radiotherapy 4500 cGy, 200-300 cGyžday. Esophagectomy followed 4-5 weeks after radiotherapy. After the surgery patients were followed-up regularly at 3-6 months intervals. Results. The pCR was achieved in 26.8% of patients. The overall median survival time was 18 months for all patients, 21.2 months for patients who achieved pCR and 16 months in those with residual disease (p= 0,79). Postoperative mortality rate was 22%. The median dose intensity for cisplatin was 92% and for 5-FU 71.5 of the planned dose. Disease recurred most often locoregionally (31.7%) and the overall recurrence rate was 43.9. Conclusion. Modern radiation techniques and the adequate dose intensity could further improve the locoregional control. The selection of patients without comorbid conditions and without already present distant metastases is essential for this combined treatment approach.

2. Discretionary capitalization of development expendituresPrimož Petek, Mateja Jerman, Sandra Janković, 2023, original scientific article Abstract: The paper examines the discretionary nature of (non)capitalizing development expenditures in financial statements. A review of the literature shows that companies may have different motives and factors for (non)capitalizing development expenditures. This study analyzes a sample of 547 companies from the information and communications technology (ICT) sector listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange in the period 2009-2018. The ICT sector was selected because it represents an industry with high R&D (research and development) expenditures. The results of the probit regression analysis made on 3,718 observations show that the capitalization of development expenditures is significantly positively related to the size and return on assets of the firm and negatively related to the age of the firm. Larger and more profitable firms are more likely to capitalize development expenditures, while older firms are less likely to capitalize development expenditures. Our results contribute to the literature in the field of positive accounting theory providing additional insights into factors associated with decisions to (non)capitalize development expenditures.
