MOESM1 of Reference value for expiratory time constant calculated from the maximal expiratory flow-volume curve

, 2019
Additional file 1: Figure S1. The relationship between RCEXP and maximal mid-expiratory flow rate (MMF). To a certain extent, RCEXP is sociated with MMF with an R2 value of 0.3154 (P < 0.001). There is a gradual increase in RCEXP, especially when MMF is below approximately 1.0 L/s. Figure S2.

A Test of the Coase Conjecture Using Prices of Electronic Books

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Coase Conjecture predicts that a durable‐goods monopolist without commitment will rapidly cut price toward marginal cost. We test this prediction in the electronic‐book market using release‐day prices. To proxy for marginal cost, we use competitive prices of public‐domain electronic books on the same platforms.

Merger Efficiency and Coordinated Effects: Nothing to Sneeze at? Evidence From Cough and Cold Medicines in the Philippines

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate the competitive effects of a merger in the cough and cold medicines segment between GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) and Pfizer. The parties offered efficiency gains, and authorities concluded the merger would not lessen competition. Using product‐level data from the Philippines, we estimate a structural demand model to assess efficiency ...

Sargassum Lung Syndrome: Air Flow Obstruction and Bronchial Inflammation Are Observed After Prolonged Exposure to Sargassum Gas Emissions in the Eastern Caribbean

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...

Vog: Using Volcanic Eruptions to Estimate the Health Costs of Particulates

The Economic Journal, EarlyView., 2018
The negative consequences of long‐term exposure to particulate pollution are well established but a number of studies find no effect of short‐term exposure on health outcomes. The high correlation of industrial pollutants complicates the estimation of the impact of individual pollutants on health.

The Usefulness of Machine Learning Models to Predict Patient‐Reported Outcome Measures in Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objective The treatment available for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) has remained unsatisfactory. Patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs), capturing patient‐perceived health status and well‐being, are vehicles for measuring and improving the efficacy of care.

Assessing physiological, behavioral and movement responses to Suprelorin implant delivery methods in free‐ranging eastern grey kangaroos Macropus giganteus

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Overabundant populations of eastern grey kangaroos Macropus giganteus in peri‐urban areas pose ecological and social challenges. Current management strategies are often hindered by animal welfare and logistical concerns. This study aimed to assess stress responses of kangaroos to two contraceptive delivery methods.
