Examples of mismatch in the following topics:

  • Dead Space: V/Q Mismatch

    • Dead space is a broken down or blocked region of the lung that produces a mismatch of air and blood in the lungs (V/Q mismatch).
    • This is referred to as ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) mismatch.
    • There are two types of V/Q mismatch that produce dead space.
    • The lung has the capability to compensate for mismatches in ventilation and perfusion.
    • Compare and contrast anatomical and physiological dead space and their role in V/Q mismatch
  • Supporting and Conflicting Substituent Effects

    • In reaction B the β-polar substituent of the aldehyde is mismatched in this respect, but has little effect on the overall diastereoselectivity.
    • In reaction C the α-substituent of the aldehyde is mismatched, leading to dominance of the anti-Felkin-Ahn product.
    • Finally, reaction D shows the results of a fully mismatched combination, which even produces a small amount of syn-aldol product (not shown).
    • Reactions B and C are the partially mismatched cases, and D shows a mixture of products from the fully mismatched combination.
    • The remarkable influence of a β-polar substituent on the aldehyde is again shown in reaction C, where a strong shift to Felkin-Ahn addition occurs, despite the mismatched β-methyl substituent.
  • DNA Repair

    • Some errors are not corrected during replication, but are instead corrected after replication is completed; this type of repair is known as mismatch repair .
    • How do mismatch repair enzymes recognize which of the two bases is the incorrect one?
    • In mismatch repair, the incorrectly-added base is detected after replication.
    • The mismatch-repair proteins detect this base and remove it from the newly-synthesized strand by nuclease action.
  • Types of Unemployment: Frictional, Structural, Cyclical

    • There is a mismatch between the skills of the unemployed workers and the skills needed for the jobs that are available.
    • It occurs when there is a mismatch between the workers and jobs.
    • The mismatch can be related to skills, payment, work time, location, seasonal industries, attitude, taste, and other factors.
  • Reasons for Unemployment

    • Frictional unemployment exists because both jobs and workers are heterogenous, and a mismatch can result between the characteristics of supply and demand.
    • Such a mismatch can be related to skills, payment, work-time, location, seasonal industries, attitude, taste, and a multitude of other factors.
    • Structural unemployment is a form of unemployment where, at a given wage, the quantity of labor supplied exceeds the quantity of labor demanded, because there is a fundamental mismatch between the number of people who want to work and the number of jobs that are available.
  • Impact of Public Policy on Unemployment

    • It exists because the labor market is not perfect and there may be mismatches between job-seekers and jobs before workers are hired for the right position.
    • If the search takes too long and mismatches are too frequent, the economy suffers, since some work will not get done.
  • Choosing a Policy

    • The mismatching of liabilities with assets can occur if financing is not available.
    • Mismatching can also be intentional.
  • Employment Levels

    • Structural unemployment occurs when a labor market is unable to provide jobs for everyone who wants to work because there is a mismatch between the skills of the unemployed workers and the skills needed for the available jobs.
    • Frictional unemployment exists because both jobs and workers are heterogeneous, and a mismatch can result between the characteristics of supply and demand.
    • Such a mismatch can be related to any of the following reasons:
  • Differences Between Accrued and Deferred Expenses

    • Accrued expenses and deferred expenses are two examples of mismatches between when expenses are recognized under the matching principle and when those expenses are actually paid.
  • Current Guidelines for Revenue Recognition

    • By following the matching principle, businesses reduce confusion from a mismatch in timing between when costs (expenses) are incurred and when revenue is recognized and realized.
