Revisiting Asset Pricing Models: The Case for an Intangibles Factor

open access: yesFinancial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In an increasingly knowledge‐based economy, intangible assets may be an important driver of firm performance and stock returns. We introduce an intangibles intensity factor (INT), distinct from the organization capital factor, and show that exposure to this factor strongly predicts stock returns, outperforming traditional factors.

Modern services, real exchange rate and economic growth [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Political Economy
This paper explores the effects of changes in the real exchange rate (RER) level on the performance of the modern services sector. The hypothesis is that sustaining a competitive RER contributes to improving the performance of modern services.

The Acute Effect of Consuming Whey Versus a Plant‐Based Protein Blend on Postprandial Metabolism and Appetite in a Sample of Healthy Adults [PDF]

open access: yesFood Sci Nutr
This study compares the metabolic effects of whey and a plant protein blend, consumed in a fasted state. The results showed a transient reduction in postprandial ketones and NEFA, and elevation of insulin and GLP‐1 following protein ingestion. The two protein drinks exerted a comparable effect on resting energy expenditure, subjective appetite ratings,

Bridging the Gap Between L1 and L2: Enhanced Emotional Vocabulary Through Elaborative Processing in Spanish‐Speaking English Language Learners

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Foreign languages are often learnt in formal and disembodied environments which may limit the emotional resonance of their vocabulary and their pragmatic usage in real‐life communication. In a context of English as a foreign language (EFL), this study examines whether elaborative processing as a teaching strategy leads to changes in the ...

Net Foreign Assets, Productivity and Real Exchange Rates in Constrained Economies [PDF]

open access: yes
Empirical evidence suggests that real exchange rates (RER) behave differently in developed and developing countries. We develop an exogenous 2-sector growth model in which RER determination depends on the country's capacity to borrow from international ...

High cycling cadence reduces carbohydrate oxidation at given low intensity metabolic rate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Cycling cadence (RPM)-related differences in blood lactate concentration (BLC) increase with increasing exercise intensity, whilst corresponding divergences in oxygen uptake (VO2) and carbon dioxde production (VCO2) decrease.

Epithelial‐Mesenchymal Transition, Immune Response, and Extracellular Matrix Remodelling in Oral Cancer

open access: yesJournal of Oral Pathology &Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim This retrospective study investigates the interplay between epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) and immune response within the tumor microenvironment (TME) of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Methodology Immunohistochemistry was conducted on OSCC specimens to evaluate the expression of podoplanin (PDP), E‐cadherin (CDH1), vimentin (

The Role of Oxidative Stress in Periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Oxidative stress is involved in multiple chemical reactions that take place in different intracellular organelles: mitochondria, rough endoplasmic reticulum, peroxisomes, autophagy, and aging, and can be influenced by exogenous factors: nutrition, physical activity, psychological status, environmental conditions, microbiome, and drugs.
