The Optimal Regulation of Credit Rating Agencies
Credit rating agencies (CRAs) very often have been criticized for announcing inaccurate credit ratings and are suspected of being exposed to conicts of interest. Despite these objections CRAs remained largely unregulated. Based on Pagano & Immordino (2007), we study the optimal regulation of CRAs in a model where rating quality is unobservable and enforcing regulation is costly. The model show...
متن کاملWhat does airway resistance tell us about lung function?
Spirometry is considered the primary method to detect the air flow limitation associated with obstructive lung disease. However, air flow limitation is the end-result of many factors that contribute to obstructive lung disease. One of these factors is increased airway resistance. Airway resistance is traditionally measured by relating air flow and driving pressure using body plethysmography, t...
متن کاملWhat does spatial alternation tell us about retrosplenial cortex function?
The retrosplenial cortex supports navigation, but there are good reasons to suppose that the retrosplenial cortex has a very different role in spatial memory from that of the hippocampus and anterior thalamic nuclei. For example, retrosplenial lesions appear to have little or no effect on standard tests of spatial alternation. To examine these differences, the current study sought to determine ...
متن کاملWhat does indirect calorimetry really tell us?
Accurate and sensitive assessments of energy expenditure (EE) in mice changes in the balance of gut microbial species could differentially are essential given their importance to research on the molecular mechanisms of energy homeostasis [1]. EE phenotyping in mice is widely available using state-of-the-art equipment in many laboratories, including those in regional centers in the United States...
متن کاملLactate: What Does It Really Tell Us?
For much of the 20 century, lactate was largely considered a dead end waste product of glycolysis due to hypoxia ... and a key factor in acidosis induced tissue damage. Since the 1970s a lactate revolution has occurred. At present we are in the midst of a lactate shuttle era; the lactate paradigm has shifted. There is essentially unanimous support for a cell to cell lactate shuttle. The bulk of...
