Full Dollarisation and Economic Performance Revisited

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the economic performance of fully dollarised economies compared to those with alternative monetary regimes. Using an extensive dataset covering 192 countries from 1980 to 2021, we employ a variety of econometric techniques, including joint maximum likelihood and propensity score matching, to address endogeneity and ...

Laparoscopic Resection of Caudate Lobe Liver Tumors in Clinical Practice

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The caudate lobe (Couinaud segment I), owing to its deep location in the posterosuperior liver, intimate encirclement by the inferior vena cava (IVC), and close adjacency to the hepatic hilum and major hepatic veins, presents a formidable anatomical challenge for resection.

Joint Angular Excursions and Angular Range Utilization During Stance‐Phase Locomotion in Terrestrial Mammals: A Comparative Morphofunctional Data Set

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
This study quantifies stance‐phase joint angular excursions and angular utilization (AUI%) during walking in 182 terrestrial mammal species. Across mammals, total limb excursion during stance (TAE) decreases with increasing body mass, whereas AUI% remains broadly conserved, indicating similar proportional use of summed joint excursions to generate net ...
