The Effects of Minimum Quality Standards: Better or Worse Products?
Creators: name: Garella, Paolo G.
Publisher: name: Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna
Year: 2003
Subjects: SECS-P/01 Economia politica

description: In a duopoly where two firms’ products are differentiated both, horizontally
and vertically, introduction of a quality standard affects equilibrium quality
levels of both firms. The effects, furthermore, depend upon consumers being
or not perfectly informed about qualities. Qualities are strategic substitutes
and under perfect information only non-innocuous standards, i.e. above the
lowest quality in an unregulated equilibrium, change the equilibrium. However,
the average quality in the market may go down due to the standard, because
the high quality firm will lower its own quality, and total consumers welfare
may decrease. Under uncertainty, even innocuous standards, below the lowest
unregulated equilibrium quality, may alter the equilibrium quality choices.

description: Cette campagne s'intègre dans le plan quadriennal 2012-2015 de l'UMR LEMAR (Equipe 3 «Etude intégrée du fonctionnement des écosystèmes » et Axe transversal « Afrique de l'Ouest ») et a pour programme de rattachement le projet AWA (BMBF-MESR). L'objectif de la campagne ECOAO est de définir les caractéristiques de l'habitat de la petite côte sénégalaise durant la période d'upwelling, afin d'aboutir à une meilleure compréhension du lien entre le compartiment zooplanctonique et la ressource en petits pélagiques. Nos observations in situ nous permettront à terme de mieux appréhender les processus biologiques fondamentaux qui régissent la variabilité de ce système. Les résultats attendus issus de l'analyse des données d'origine acoustique combinés aux mesures environnementales, nous conduiront à la mise en place de nouvelles méthodologies d'investigations et probablement à différents niveaux de compréhension. Notre objectif principal est l'observation simultanée de l'habitat pélagique et de la ressource en petits pélagiques. L'accent est mis sur l'observation in situ et la modélisation du compartiment trophique inférieur. Dans le cadre de cette campagne nous proposons une étude de la caractérisation des communautés zooplanctoniques par acoustique multi-fréquentielle (sondeurs, TAPS et Multinet) et phytoplanctonique par microscopie optique et HPLC. Par ailleurs, nous avons profité de cette campagne pour tester une caméra holographique sur le plancton et un réseau d'hydrophones sur les regroupements de bancs de petits pélagiques. Ces derniers résultats devraient nous permettre de mettre en place de nouvelles méthodologies d'investigation pour de futures campagnes. Cette campagne était couplée à la campagne UPSEN dont l'objectif central était de décrire la structure physique de l'upwelling côtier (localisation et intensité) et son évolution spatio-temporelle sur une zone limitée de la Petite Côte du Sénégal.

description: Employees of .globalized. firms face a riskier, but potentially more rewarding, menu of labor market outcomes. We document this neglected trade-off of
globalization for a sample of Indian manufacturing firms. On the one hand,
the employees of firms subject to foreign competition face a more uncertain
stream of earnings and riskier employment prospects. On the other, they enjoy a more rapid career and/or have more opportunities to train and upgrade
their skills. The negative uncertainty costs and the positive incentive effects
of globalization are thus twin to each other. Concentrating on just one side
of the coin gives a misleading picture of globalization.

Assessing the Roles of Retinol, Vitamin K2, Carnitine, and Creatine in Plant-Based Diets: A Narrative Review of Nutritional Adequacy and Health Implications

description: Plant-based diets are associated with numerous health benefits, including reduced risks of chronic diseases. However, questions persist regarding the implications of lower dietary intakes of certain non-essential nutrients, such as retinol, vitamin K2, carnitine, and creatine, which are primarily found in animal-derived foods. This narrative review evaluates the roles of these nutrients in human physiology and examines whether their absence in plant-based diets is likely to impact health outcomes. Retinol requirements can be met through the consumption of provitamin A carotenoids in plant foods, even in individuals with reduced conversion efficiency. Endogenous synthesis adequately supports physiological needs for vitamin K2, and currently available evidence does not consistently demonstrate that dietary vitamin K2 provides additional benefits for bone or cardiovascular health. Carnitine and creatine levels may differ between individuals following omnivorous and plant-based diets, but these differences do not result in compromised muscle function, cognitive health, or metabolic outcomes. Current evidence does not indicate that the absence of these non-essential nutrients in plant-based diets adversely affects health or confers disadvantages compared to omnivorous diets.

description: Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is a rapidly developing acquired idiopathic disorder. Differential expressions of microRNAs (miRNAs) have been identified in the acute serum of SSNHL patients. miRNAs are transmitted in both serum and plasma, but it is unknown which better reflects changes associated with inner ear disease. Therefore, we sought to compare the serum and plasma miRNA expression levels in adult SSNHL patients. We extracted and reverse transcribed total RNA from serum and plasma, and analyzed the product with quantitative real-time PCR. hsa-miR-191-5p was used for normalization, and miRNA expression levels were calculated using the delta Ct method. Serum and plasma samples from 17 SSNHL patients (mean age 51.9 years, standard deviation 13.9 years) showed no significant differences in miR-128-3p, miR-132-3p, miR-375-3p, miR-590-5p, miR-30a-3p, miR-140-3p, miR-186-5p, and miR-195-5p expression levels on Wilcoxon signed-rank test analyses. We conclude that plasma and serum are equally suitable for investigating potential miRNA SSNHL disease markers.

description: While dogs are one of humans’ greatest companions, they also serve as hosts for a multitude of parasites. Urban dog parks serve as environments where the transmission of diseases is likely to occur. Exposure to infective agents, contained within the soil, intermediate hosts (e.g., rodents, rabbits), and feces, can directly affect the health of dogs and their owners. Other factors that can further influence canine health include age, previous diagnoses of parasites/diseases, and migration. Many dog owners visit dog parks to encourage socialization and exercise. Such activities are meant to improve health, but unawareness of microbiological organisms can lead to detrimental health conditions if not prevented and treated at the early stages. Human populations, such as children, the elderly, pregnant women, and immunocompromised individuals, who are exposed to certain species of protozoa, helminths, and other parasites, may develop physical and neurological damage. In this study, n = 100 fecal samples from 16 Clark County, NV urban dog parks were collected from canine pets. After laboratory processing using fecal smear and fecal flotation procedures (i.e., sugar and salt), and microscopic observations, we found that canine parasites were present in n=50 (50%) of stool samples. Out of those that were observed, protozoan, nematode, and cestode species were identified, most of which have zoonotic potential. It is important that public health professionals encourage communities to monitor their pets’ health. For instance, appropriate vaccination, routine veterinary checkups, and proper hygienic practices can reduce the risk of transmission.

Working on the Train? The role of technical Progress and the Trade in Explaining Wage Differentials in Italian Firms

Year: 2003
Subjects: SECS-P/01 Economia politica

description: This paper presents firm-level evidence on the dynamics of the relative demand for non-manual workers in Italian manufacturing during the 1990s. The analysis provides a number of interesting results.
First, the rise within firms in the share of non manual workers in
both employment and hours worked (within-firm skill upgrading) is
the main determinant of the increase in the relative demand for skilled
workers. By contrast, demand changes associated to trade have mitigated such a rise by shifting employment away from skill-intensive
firms. Second, while the relative number of hours worked by skilled
workers within firms has risen, the hourly wage premium has fallen.
Third, within-firm skill upgrading is strongly and significantly related
to investment in computers and R&D. Fourth, we find that technical
progress has raised the relative productivity of skilled workers (the
skill-bias of technical progress is positive). Finally we show that the
standard approach that measures annual, rather than hourly relative wages, produces a downward bias in the estimate of the skill-bias of
technical progress.

Brain Drain and Fiscal Competition. A theoretical model for the Europe.
Creators: name: Giannoccolo, Pierpaolo
Publisher: name: Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna
Year: 2003
Subjects: SECS-P/02 Politica economica

description: In this paper we study Brain Drain (BD) and Fiscal Competition (FC) in a unified framework for the European Union (EU) specific context. Potential mobility of educated workers can increase the degree of FC through taxation or the provision of public education.
An increase in FC can be caused by competition among different jurisdictions that aim to attract educated workers. When the importance of FC increases, then the European States may employ FC
as a new policy tool. First, we analyze FC and BD with reference to EU regions. In this instance, the EU may find incentive to control the interactions between BD and FC in order to coordinate fiscal policies and/or the provision of public goods as education. Second, we furthermore consider the entry of new state inside the EU.
The absence of coordination implies that, in addition to the FC, a “migration competition” may be generated in EU, where the region inside the union try to attract educated workers of the new entry.
We derive the conditions which BD leads to a decrease (increase) in welfare and growth for new entry country.

description: A key feature of the EU harmonization of technical barriers to trade (TBT’s) is that exporting
firms may entail a compliance costs. This paper provides theoretical and empirical work. In a

effect (with different intensities) in lowering the compliance cost and investigate the impact of
an R&D subsidy. Using a self-constructed database, which specifically identifies sectors where
the EU has sought to introduce harmonized environmental regulations, we find evidence that
support this prediction of the theory.

description: We investigate a dynamic Cournot duopoly with intraindustry trade, where
firms invest in R&D to reduce the level of iceberg transportation costs. We
adopt both open-loop and closed-loop equilibrium concepts, showing that a
unique (saddle point) steady state exists in both cases. In the open-loop model,
optimal investments and the resulting efficiency of transportation technology
are independent of the relative size of the two countries. On the contrary, in
the closed-loop case, a home market effect operates so that the firm located
in the larger country invests more than the rival located in the smaller one.
Policy implications are also evaluated.

Subjects: SECS-P/02 Politica economica

description: According to Gibrat’s Law of Proportionate Effect, the growth rate of a given firm is independent
of its size at the beginning of the period examined. In contrast to the previous literature on the
subject, this paper seeks to test the Law by taking account of both the entry process and the role of
survival/failure in reshaping a given population of firms over time. It does so by focusing on the
entire population of firms (including newborn ones) in the Italian Radio, TV &
Telecommunications equipment industry and tracking them over seven years. Consistently with the
previous literature, it finds that - in general - Gibrat’s Law is to be rejected, since smaller firms tend
to grow faster than their larger counterparts. However, the paper’s main finding is that this rejection
of Gibrat’s Law may be due to market dynamics and selection. In other words, it is due to the entry
process and the presence of transient smaller firms. Indeed, whilst it is found that Gibrat’s Law has
to be rejected over a seven-year period during which both incumbent and newborn firms are
considered, for both sub-populations of surviving firms a convergence towards Gibrat-like behavior
over time can be detected. Thus, market selection “cleans” the original population of firms and the
resulting industrial “core” (mature, larger, well-established and most efficient firms) does not seem
to depart from a Gibrat-like pattern of growth.

description: Healthcare-associated infections or hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) have remained prevalent despite the growth of infection control programs in healthcare facilities and are a large cause of morbidity and mortality. Device-associated HAIs (DA-HAIs) make up a large portion of HAIs. The devices include central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs), catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs), and ventilator-associated events (VAEs). DA-HAIs became a large concern during the COVID-19 pandemic as many healthcare facilities became overwhelmed by the influx of COVID-19 cases, illuminating the importance of studies to examine these changes. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate how DA-HAI rates have changed during and after the COVID-19 pandemic in Nevada and how device utilization has influenced this change. This study utilized a cross-sectional analysis design, including data from the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) on CLABSIs, CAUTIs, and VAEs from January 1, 2018, to March 31, 2024, in Nevada. The study has three defined periods: pre-pandemic/baseline (2018-2019), the pandemic period (2020-2022), and post-pandemic (2023-2024). Results indicated that VAEs significantly increased during the pandemic period and have remained high in the post-pandemic period. There was no change in CAUTIs throughout the three periods. A period change was observed in CLABSIs, but only in acute care hospitals. Device utilization was a significant predictor for VAEs and in some healthcare settings for CLABSIs. Differences were also noted in bed size and geographical location in Nevada for some healthcare settings. Understanding the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic can help improve and sustain infection control programs to respond to future pandemics.

An Active Learning Model for Promoting Healthy Cooking and Dietary Strategies Among South Asian Children : A Proof-of-Concept Study
Creators: name: Tang, Tricia S.

Publisher: name: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute
Year: 2025

description: Background/Objectives: South Asian children living in Canada have a higher prevalence of cardiovascular disease risk factors compared to their non-South Asian counterparts, and poor dietary habits may contribute to this health disparity. Methods: This study uses a pre–post intervention design to examine the impact of a family-focused, “hands-on” cooking workshop on improving three cooking and dietary strategies: (1) using healthy cooking techniques, (2) practicing portion control, and (3) making healthy substitutions. We recruited 70 South Asian parent–child dyads (n = 140) across four elementary schools in Surrey, British Columbia. The 90 min workshop includes a didactic segment on healthy food preparation and dietary strategies, followed by an interactive cooking session where participants make a healthier version of a traditional Punjabi dish. Results: Among the three dietary strategies measured, both children and parents increased their frequency of using healthy cooking techniques (child p = 0.02; parent p < 0.001) and practicing portion control (child p < 0.001; parent p = 0.02). No changes were reported by either group for making healthy substitutions. Conclusions: Findings suggest that educational approaches that engage the family as a unit and encourage active participation are associated with improvements in cooking and dietary strategies in the South Asian community.
Capital Accumulation and Horizontal Mergers in Differential Oligopoly Games

Subjects: SECS-P/01 Economia politica

description: The existing (static) literature stresses the relevance of capital inputs in determining
whether any given merger is (i) profitable and (ii) socially efficient,
or not. We take a differential game approach to the same issue, proposing
two different models based, respectively, on the capital accumulation dynamics
introduced by Ramsey and Solow, respectively. We show that the change
in the steady state size of productive plants induced by a merger may play a
decisive role in determining whether such a merger is profitable, or socially
efficient. However, unlike the static contributions in the same vein, we show
that the parameter sets where, respectively, firms find it convenient to merge,
and the merger is welfare-increasing, do not intersect at all, irrespectively of
the capital accumulation dynamics being considered. This entails that a regulator
concerned with the welfare performance of an industry should prevent
firms from carrying out any horizontal merger

description: A vertically integrated monopoly is compared to a decentralized
market arrangement where production is segmented. A Labor Managed
firm produces an input used by a profit maximizer manufacturer
of a final good. Unlike what usually occurs between homogenoeus
firms we find circumstances in which the decentralised vertical
arrangement is privately superior to the integrated one.
Rational destabilising speculation and the riding of bubbles.

description: We present a model where it can be optimal for rational informed speculators/arbitragers to ride the
bubble instead of using their information for stabilising purposes. This result stems from the interaction
of speculators with behavioural traders. These latter in each period of time either discover the true
fundamental value of the asset, or use a positive feedback strategy. We study the equilibrium strategy
profiles of speculators in the case of short and long horizons and derive the resulting average expected
excess deviation of the asset price. Further we consider the possibility of market manipulation and its
consequences on the market efficiency.
Nuova figurazione antropomorfa di cultura Ozieri da Serra Neula/Puisteris-Mogoro (OR)

description: Si presenta una nuova figurina antropomorfa identificata su un frammento ceramico di cultura Ozieri, recuperato durante gli scavi archeologici nel sito di Serra Neula (Mogoro), presso il noto villaggio preistorico di Puisteris, importante centro di lavorazione dell’ossidiana durante il Neolitico. La raffigurazione, femminile con schema “a clessidra”, sebbene presenti peculiari caratteristiche di grande interesse, rientra perfettamente nell’ambito delle decorazioni antropomorfe note realizzate su recipienti ceramici appartenenti al ricco repertorio vascolare della cultura di Ozieri.

The paper presents a new anthropomorphic figurine impressed on a vessel fragment of Ozieri culture, recovered during the archaeological excavations in the site of Serra Neula (Mogoro), near the prehistoric village of Puisteris, an important centre of obsidian manufacture during the Neolithic. The figuration, female with a scheme like a “hourglass”, presents peculiar characteristics of great interest; however, it fits perfectly within the anthropomorphic decorations known from various ceramic samples belonging to the rich vascular repertory of the culture of Ozieri.

description: A partire dalla prima edizione del 1955 la planimetria del nuraghe e del villaggio di Su Nuraxi di Barumini è stata pubblicata, con aggiornamenti e modifiche, in numerosi contributi scientifici e divulgativi. Le sigle adottate in cinque principali planimetrie edite evidenziano omissioni, variazioni e ripetizioni che si perpetuano nel corso delle varie stesure creando difficoltà alla lettura generale del complesso e alla particolare individuazione dei vani. Questo contributo si propone di verificare tali incongruenze allo scopo di redigere una nuova planimetria con una univoca segnatura degli spazi quale strumento utile alla ricostruzione delle vicende storiche del villaggio di Su Nuraxi.

Since 1955 five major plans of the nuragic village of Barumini have been published. The plans utilized different identification codes for the structures. This has led to some confusion and created difficulties in identify individual structures. This work presents a Comparison Table to identify the various anomalies in the five published works and includes a new detailed plan of the site.

description: I frammenti ceramici di età nuragica presi in esame, complessivamente 22, furono raccolti in superficie negli anni ’70 del secolo scorso a Montigu Mannu (Massama-OR), località situata nella piana alluvionale del Campidano Maggiore. I reperti sono ascrivibili a fasi del Bronzo finale/inizi I Ferro ed evidenziano aspetti tipologici ampiamente documentati in numerosi altri siti nuragici localizzati nella stessa regione geografica; sono pertinenti ad un contesto abitativo e attestano nello stesso luogo una nuova fase d’occupazione nuragica, successiva a quella rappresentata dai resti di un nuraghe monotorre.

The ceramic fragments of nuragic age examined, 22 in all, were collected in surface in the ‘70 years of the last century near Montigu Mannu (Massama-OR), site located in the alluvial plain of the Campidano Maggiore. The finds are imputable to phases of the Final Bronze Age / beginnings of the Iron Age I and they show broadly typological aspects documented in numerous other nuragic sites located in the same geographical region; they are pertinent to a housing context and they attest, in the same place, a new phase of nuragic occupation, following to that represented by the rests of a simple nuraghe.

description: Hydrothermal systems have been proposed as environments for prebiotic chemistry on early Earth. Ancient Mars was an ocean world and could also have had hydrothermal vents supporting biological or prebiotic processes. The Strytan Hydrothermal Field (SHF) in Iceland is a basalt-hosted alkaline vent that forms massive hydrothermal Mg-saponite chimneys and is a potential analog to basalt-hosted alkaline vents that may have existed at the Eridania basin on Mars, where saponite deposits are thought to have formed from ancient hydrothermal activity. Chemical garden experiments have previously been used to simulate aspects of hydrothermal chimney growth for other types of vent systems; however, they have not been much used in this context of a silica-rich hydrothermal system. Here, we studied the formation of Fe/Mg-silicate injection chemical gardens simulating hydrothermal chimneys that represent analogs of precipitates that could have formed in SHF-like hydrothermal vents on the early Earth and/or early Mars. We found that the Fe/Mg ratio of the exterior (ocean simulant) solutions influenced the simulated chimney chemistry under anoxic conditions, and that the precipitates were enriched in Fe compared to the surrounding solution. Simulated chimney compositions as analyzed by Raman, Scanning Electron Microscope-Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy, X-Ray Diffraction, and Visible Near Infrared Reflectance spectra were also affected by whether the chimneys were dried and/or heated post-formation. Our data were suggestive of the presence of Mg-clay like minerals such as saponite or sepiolite in the simulated chimneys, along with amorphous/nanocrystalline Fe phases and Fe-hydroxides, hydrated silica, hematite, halite, and gypsum. Although smectites were not able to be definitively confirmed with ethylene glycol treatment and XRD, this could be due to the precipitates being aged for too short a time to allow for crystallization of an ordered smectite. Though we observed evidence for Mg-silicate and clay-like minerals in the chemical gardens, we did not observe any evidence for Fe-silicate or Fe-containing clay-like minerals; only amorphous silica and Fe hydroxides/oxides, similar to what has been observed in previous studies. This suggests that in SHF-like chimneys on early Earth and/or Mars, Mg would have been present as Mg-hydroxides and Mg-silicates (and, in the presence of additional geological components such as Al, likely phyllosilicates or clays), whereas Fe would be present as Fe or Fe:Mg hydroxides. Such chimneys, containing both reactive Fe-hydroxides as well as Mg-clay-like minerals, would have increased potential for mineral-driven prebiotic chemical reactions.
