Abstract Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) reliably prevent death due to life‐threatening arrhythmias; this may become less relevant in people with more severe heart failure who are reaching the end of life (EOL). This review aimed to explore the ICD deactivation process and identify ethical issues, especially around the initiation of ...

Experimental aerothermodynamic research of hypersonic aircraft [PDF]
Wind tunnel tests were conducted to establish a benchmark experimental data base for a genetic hypersonic aircraft vehicle. Comprehensive measurements were made at Mach 7 to give flow visualization, surface pressure, surface convective heat transfer, and

ABSTRACT Policy process research has excelled in explaining structural policy change within national settings, but extensions and applications to the EU level have long proven challenging for scholars. Given that the EU is currently experiencing its longest period of Treaty stability since the 1980s—having evolved into a sui generis political system ...

Mergers and Acquisitions and Brexit: A Natural Experiment
ABSTRACT We study the impact of Brexit uncertainty on one of the most important forms of corporate investment: mergers and acquisitions (M&As). Brexit provides us with an ideal natural experiment to explore the real effects of economic uncertainty and understand the underlying transmission mechanism. We document a significant decline in the number of M&

The Impact of Geopolitical Risk on Trade Credit
ABSTRACT In light of escalating global geopolitical tensions, understanding how firms respond to external shocks has become a critical issue for policymakers, corporate managers, and investors. This study investigates the impact of geopolitical risk (GPR) on firms' reliance on trade credit (TC)—an essential form of short‐term financing, particularly ...
