Bureaucratic Politics and Aid Allocation: Evidence From the US Agency for International Development

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine the impact of bureaucratic politics within the US Agency for International Development on the allocation of its development assistance. Existing studies of aid allocation have focused on donor interests, recipient needs, and recipient merit without accounting for the bureaucratic decision‐making process that helps determine these ...

Does the stepping‐stone effect of temporary agency employment vary over the business cycle?

The Scandinavian Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract We examine the cyclicality of the stepping‐stone effect of temporary agency work in Germany across three business cycles using administrative data and a timing‐of‐events model. We estimate in‐ and post‐treatment effects and their response to the unemployment rate.

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Effect of internal and external cooling on high‐intensity intermittent cycling performance and cognitive function in the heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigated the effect of internal and external cooling on high‐intensity intermittent cycling performance and cognitive function in the heat. Twenty‐nine males completed a control trial (CON) and a cooling trial (ice slurry and ice collar; COOL) in the heat (33°C, 50% relative humidity) involving a 40 min intermittent cycling protocol ...

Cerebral haemodynamic responses to inspiratory muscle work

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fatiguing inspiratory work has been shown to evoke a sympathetically mediated reflex that has systemic cardiovascular consequences, including increases in heart rate and blood pressure and a decrease in resting limb vascular conductance. Moreover, the response to this reflex appears to be attenuated in females compared with males.

Sex differences in dynamic cerebral autoregulation responses to resistance and endurance training in humans

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise maintains brain health and reduces the risk of cerebrovascular diseases, such as stroke and dementia. The benefits of different ‘modalities’ of exercise on male and female cerebral autoregulation are unclear. In this study, we compared adaptations in dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA) during spontaneous and forced oscillations in ...

Comparison of Maximal Midexpiratory Flow Rate and Forced Expiratory Flow at 50% of Vital Capacity in Childrena

Chest, 2003
The mid-portion of the maximal expiratory flow-volume (MEFV) curve is often described by values of the mean forced expired flow as lung volume decreases from 75% to 25% of vital capacity (ie, forced expiratory flow, midexpiratory phase [FEF(25-75)]).

Predictive nomograms for forced expiratory volume, forced vital capacity, and peak expiratory flow rate, in Chinese adults and children

British Journal of Diseases of the Chest, 1983
A survey of three indices of ventilatory capacity, forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC) and peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR), was undertaken on 3490 Chinese inhabitants of Hong Kong. Nomograms have been constructed for the prediction of these three indices for subjects between the ages of 5 and 75 years.

The forced expiratory volume and the peak expiratory flow rate in pneumoconiosis

British Journal of Diseases of the Chest, 1966
Summary One hundred and sixty men with coal-miner's pneumoconiosis were studied in two groups to ascertain whether a good correlation existed between the F.E.V. 1 and the P.E.F.R. The first group consisted of 100 miners without chronic bronchitis and the second of 60 miners with chronic bronchitis. Correlation was good in both groups.
