Interstate Cigarette Bootlegging: Extent, Revenue Losses, and Effects of Government Intervention [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper, we develop and estimate a model of commercial smuggling in which some, but not all, firms smuggle a portion of the cigarettes they sell. The model is used to examine the effects on interstate cigarette smuggling of the Contraband Cigarette

Multimorbidity and Associations with Cognition and Alzheimer's Disease Biomarkers

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Multimorbidity, the coexistence of 2 or more chronic conditions, has been linked to cognitive aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD) and AD‐related dementias, yet the mechanisms remain unclear. We aimed to examine the associations of multimorbidity with cognition and biomarkers across multiple mechanistic pathways.
