Using a new and original database, our paper contributes to the growth accounting literature by singling out the contribution of robots through two channels: capital deepening and TFP. The contribution of robots to productivity growth through capital deepening and TFP appears to have been significant in Germany and Japan in the sub-period 1975–1995...

Clinical outcomes of children who are human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-exposed in sub-Saharan Africa remain uncertain. The Sanitation Hygiene Infant Nutrition Efficacy (SHINE) trial evaluated improved infant and young child feeding (IYCF) and/or improved water, sanitation, and hygiene in 2 rural Zimbabwean districts with 15% antenatal HIV prevale...

Productivity is a key concept in economics and crucial for economic growth. By using different theoretical models, we show the role of several kinds of productivity, including total factor productivity (TFP) and labor productivity.

Entrepreneurship, growth and total factor productivity are larger when there is a financial bubble. We explain these facts using a growth model with financial bubbles in which individuals face heterogeneous wages and returns on productive investment. The heterogeneity in the return of in- vestment separates individuals between savers and entreprene...

Intermuscular bone (IB) occurs in the myosepta of teleosts. Its existence has an adverse influence on the edible and economic value of fish, especially for aquaculture species belonging to Cypriniformes. The growth mechanism of IBs is quite lacking. In this study, we firstly used single molecular real-time sequencing (SMRT) technology to improve th...

Background: With the increasing HIV seroprevalence among women of childbearing age in sub-Saharan Africa, limited data on growth outcomes of HIV exposed infants under current policies of universal maternal antiretroviral therapy exist. Methods: The longitudinal growth patterns of 114 HIV exposed and unexposed infants were assessed and compared. The...

The aim of this study was to examine the influence of somatic maturation in anthropometric, physical, and game-related variables in youth basketball age groups under-13 (U-13) and under-15 (U-15). One-hundred and eighty-five basketball players performed anthropometrical and physical tests during a non-official youth basketball tournament. Predicted...

Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) is a mediator of the effects of growth hormone and polymorphism in the IGF1 gene ( IGF1 ) is reported to affect fat deposition in some livestock species. In this study, nucleotide sequence variation in three regions of ovine IGF1 (part of the 5′ flanking region, the exon 3 region, and the exon 4 region) was inves...

The dysregulation of circular RNAs (circRNAs) is implicated in the pathogenesis of prostate cancer (PCa). However, the underlying mechanisms by which hsa_circ_0003768 (circPDHX) contributes to PCa remain elusive. The differentially expressed circRNAs between PCa and normal tissues were identified by Gene Expression Omnibus dataset. The association ...
