Impacts of coal smoke on infant mortality: Evidence from industrializing Japan
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the health consequences of coal smoke during Japan's early industrialization. Using fixed‐effects models and a prefecture‐level panel dataset on actual coal consumption and infant mortality from 1899 to 1910, this study finds that higher coal consumption was positively associated with infant mortality.

That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island
Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

Etiology, pathogenesis and treatment of peri‐implantitis: A European perspective
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Peri‐implantitis is a plaque‐associated pathological condition occurring in tissues around dental implants. It is characterized by inflammation in the peri‐implant mucosa and progressive loss of supporting bone. Over the last 30 years, peri‐implantitis has become a major disease burden in dentistry.

Transparency or Access? E‐Procurement's Two Paths to Integrity: Evidence From Italy
Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines whether e‐procurement adoption is associated with procedural competition and transparency, two core components of procurement integrity. Using award‐level microdata for Italian regional contracting authorities (2019–2023), we analyze a period preceding the legal obligation of full‐cycle digital procurement, when the use of ...

Sin taxes in a sealed market: dilution and leakage related to cross‐border shopping
The Scandinavian Journal of Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Excise taxes on goods with negative health outcomes (so‐called “sin taxes”) effectively reduce demand but are less effective when consumers can purchase similar goods in tax‐exempt markets. We investigate how cross‐border shopping affects the effectiveness of sin taxes by exploiting the de facto ban on cross‐border shopping during the COVID‐19
