Non‐Invasive Diagnosis of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy by Breath
The use of sensor technologies for the diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) by identification of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in breath samples. By combining gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (GC‐MS) and electronic nose (eNose) platforms, specific VOC patterns associated with HCM are detected and analyzed.

Cold Plasma Generates a Localized Inflammatory Response and Promotes Muscle Repair
The immediate tissue response to plasma is a pro‐inflammatory response which is characterized by collagen clumping, innate immune cell infiltration, enhanced metabolic processes, and decreased apoptosis. The long‐term tissue response (4‐ and 14‐days) to plasma treatment is characterized by a decreased inflammatory response, decreased adipogenesis, and ...

Demographic Transition Environmental Concern and the Kuznets Curve [PDF]
In an endogenous growth model with pollution and abatement we characterize the socially optimal solution. We find that the rate of growth depends negatively on the weight of environmental care in utility and positively on the population growth rate.

Fertility, Mortality, and the Developed World’s Demographic Transition [PDF]
This study uses Fehr, Jokisch, and Kotlikoff’s (2004a) dynamic general equilibrium model to analyze the effects of changes in fertility and mortality on the developed world’s demographic transition. The model features three regions – the U.S., Japan, and
