The Incidence of Coarse Certification: Evidence From the ENERGY STAR Program

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A coarse certification provides simple but incomplete information. Its rationale is to help consumers trade off dimensions of quality that are complex and lack salience. In imperfectly competitive markets, it may induce excess bunching at the certification requirement, crowd out quality, and facilitate price discrimination. Who will ultimately

Sex Steroids Measurement by Mass Spectrometry in Hypogonadal Men in a Real‐World Setting: Serum Estradiol (E2) and E2 to Total Testosterone Ratio Do Not Differ Between Patients With Klinefelter Syndrome and Non‐Klinefelter Syndrome Hypogonadism

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Traditionally, Klinefelter syndrome (KS) was considered a clinical condition associated with hyperestrogenism. Aim To compare circulating sex steroids, particularly estrogens, in a cohort of KS and non‐KS hypogonadal men. Materials and Methods A cohort of hypogonadal men, treated and untreated, was prospectively enrolled in a real ...

Role of ANO1‐Expressing PDGFRα+ Smooth Muscle Cells in Generating Spontaneous Phasic Contractions of the Rodent Epididymis

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Spontaneous phasic contractions (SPCs) in the epididymal duct play an important role in transport and maturation of sperm. In proximal cauda of the rat epididymis, platelet‐derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα)‐positive smooth muscle cells (SMCs) generate ANO1 Ca2+‐activated chloride channels (CaCCs)‐dependent spontaneous ...

A Personalised Vaccination Program Based on Immune Reconstitution in Paediatric Cancer Survivors

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Paediatric cancer survivors often experience treatment‐induced immunosuppression, requiring post‐treatment revaccination. However, immune recovery timelines vary, and current revaccination guidelines, largely based on data of varied quality derived from studies on acute‐lymphoblastic‐leukaemia (ALL), may not be applicable across all ...
