ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AND ECONOMIC GROWTH [PDF]

Análise Econômica, 2019
This paper explores the link between environmental policy andeconomic growth by employing an extension of the AK Growth Model. Weinclude a state equation for renewable natural resources. Weassume that the change in environmental regulations inducescosts and that economic agents also derive some utility fromcapital stock accumulation vis-a-vis the ...

The effect of multi‐leaf collimator leaf width on VMAT treatment plan quality

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The advent of volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) in radiotherapy has made it one of the most commonly used techniques in clinical practice. VMAT is the delivery of intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) while the gantry is in motion, and existing literature has shown it has decreased treatment delivery times and the ...

Implementing result-based agri-environmental payments by means of modelling [PDF]

Payments by modelled results: a novel design for agri-environmental schemes. Land Use Policy 102: 105230 (2017), 2019
From a theoretical point of view, result-based agri-environmental payments are clearly preferable to action-based payments. However, they suffer from two major practical disadvantages: costs of measuring the results and payment uncertainty for the participating farmers. In this paper, we propose an alternative design to overcome these two disadvantages

Toward a human‐centric co‐design methodology for AI detection of differences between planned and delivered dose in radiotherapy

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Many artificial intelligence (AI) solutions have been proposed to enhance the radiotherapy (RT) workflow, but limited applications have been implemented to date, suggesting an implementation gap. One contributing factor to this gap is a misalignment between AI systems and their users.

Information overload and environmental degradation: learning from H.A. Simon and W. Wenders [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
This paper discusses the relevance of information overload for explaining environmental degradation. Our argument goes that information overload and detachment from nature, caused by energy abundance, have made individuals unaware of the unsustainable effects of their choices and lifestyles.

Relationship of cognitive decline with glucocerebrosidase activity and amyloid‐beta 42 in DLB and PD

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Parkinson's disease (PD) share clinical, pathological, and genetic risk factors, including GBA1 and APOEε4 mutations. Biomarkers associated with the pathways of these mutations, such as glucocerebrosidase enzyme (GCase) activity and amyloid‐beta 42 (Aβ42) levels, may hold potential as predictive ...

A Novel CHMP2B Splicing Variant in Atypical Presentation of Familial Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT C‐truncating variants in the charged multivesicular body protein 2B (CHMP2B) gene are a rare cause of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), previously identified only in Denmark, Belgium, and China. We report a novel CHMP2B splice‐site variant (c.35‐1G>A) associated with familial FTLD in Spain. The cases were two monozygotic male twins who
