Estimation of Demand Elasticity for Food Commodities in India§
The food demand in India has been examined in the context of a structural shift in the dietary pattern of its population. The results have reinforced the hypothesis of a significant diversification in the dietary pattern of households in recent years and has found stark differences in the consumption pattern across different income quartiles. The food demand behaviour has been explained using a...
متن کاملRole of Estrogen, Estrogen Receptor-α and ESR1 Polymorphisms in SLE
The etiology of SLE is not clearly understood but strong genetic predisposition has been recognized. Environmental and hormonal factors are known to contribute towards the expression of the disease. Among the above risk factors, female gender is considered to be of greatest significance. Thus estrogens and their receptors have been proposed as obvious candidates to explain this sexual dimorphis...
متن کاملEstrogen and body weight regulation in women: the role of estrogen receptor alpha (ER-α) on adipocyte lipolysis.
Estrogen has an important role in regulation of fat metabolism. Recent studies indicated that this process occurred due to inhibition of lipolysis by external estrogen administration. However, there was limited information regarding molecular process responsible for this phenomenon. This paper was aimed to present a brief update on recent studies explaining the effect of estrogen on adipose tis...
متن کاملThe impact of food prices on consumption: a systematic review of research on the price elasticity of demand for food.
In light of proposals to improve diets by shifting food prices, it is important to understand how price changes affect demand for various foods. We reviewed 160 studies on the price elasticity of demand for major food categories to assess mean elasticities by food category and variations in estimates by study design. Price elasticities for foods and nonalcoholic beverages ranged from 0.27 to 0....
متن کاملAntagonists Selective for Estrogen Receptor α.
To develop compounds that are antagonists on ER , but not ER , we have added basic side-chains typically found in nonsteroidal antiestrogens to pyrazole compounds that bind with much higher affinity to ER than to ER . In this way we have developed basic side-chain pyrazoles (BSC-pyrazoles) that are high affinity, potent, selective antagonists on ER . These BSCpyrazoles are themselves inactive o...
