Preferential trading in agriculture: New insights from a structural gravity analysis and machine learning

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preferential trade agreements (PTAs) contain various non‐tariff provisions, yet identifying their trade effects remains challenging because these commitments are high‐dimensional and strongly correlated within agreements. We estimated a theory‐consistent structural gravity model with domestic flows for 26 agricultural subsectors over 1988–2017

Effects of oropharyngeal neuromuscular stimulation on the volumetric enlarged and reduced tongue base in minipigs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hypoglossal nerve or tongue protruding muscle stimulation is a current treatment option for obstructive sleep apnea. Thus, the present study analyzed 3D deformations of the volumetric enlarged and reduced tongue base upon oropharyngeal neuromuscular stimulation.

Acute effects of THC and a CBD+THC combination on cardiovascular haemodynamics and respiratory muscle activity during loaded breathing in healthy adults: A randomized placebo‐controlled crossover study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims This study aimed to evaluate the acute effects of cannabidiol plus tetrahydrocannabinol (CBD+THC) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) oils on cardiovascular haemodynamics, respiratory muscle activity and peripheral tissue perfusion in healthy adults. Methods In this randomized, double‐blind, crossover trial, participants received orally administered ...

Assessing the repeatability of expiratory flow limitation during incremental exercise in healthy adults

Physiological Reports
We sought to determine the repeatability of EFL in healthy adults during incremental cycle exercise. We hypothesized that the repeatability of EFL would be “strong” when assessed as a binary variable (i.e., absent or present) but “poor” when assessed as ...

The Concavity of the Maximal Expiratory Flow–Volume Curve Reflects the Extent of Emphysema in Obstructive Lung Diseases [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2019
AbstractA concave-shaped maximal expiratory flow-volume (MEFV) curve is a spirometric feature in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The MEFV curve is characterized by an increase in the Obstructive Index, which is defined as a ratio of forced vital capacity to the volume-difference between two points of half of the peak expiratory flow on ...

Food Waste Applications Beyond the West: Archetypes and Insights From China

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food waste is a major challenge for sustainable development, but digital solutions designed to reduce it remain unevenly distributed globally. Food waste mobile applications (FWMAs) have emerged as promising tools for reducing food surpluses through redistribution and improved household food management.

Variability of the configuration of maximum expiratory flow-volume curves

, 1979
With a computer technique variability of the configuration of maximum expiratory flow-volume (MEFV) curves was studied in terms of slope ratio, SR. SR = dV/dV divided by V/V, where V is the instantaneous flow and V is the volume increment above residual

Comprehensive exploration of unexplained dyspnoea in subjects with normal ejection fraction and low natriuretic peptides

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 879-887, April 2025.
Abstract Background Unexplained exertional dyspnoea without significant elevation of natriuretic peptides is common. One of the causes might be early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Aims This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near‐to‐normal N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT ...

Trendelenburg positioning with or without norepinephrine infusion for haemodynamic support in anaesthetised hypovolemic horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Intraoperative haemorrhage during equine anaesthesia is a rare but potentially fatal complication requiring prompt haemodynamic support. Postural manoeuvres such as Trendelenburg (TL) positioning and vasopressor support augment venous return and improve cardiac output (CO), yet their efficacy in anaesthetised hypovolemic horses ...
