Sustained Beta-Cell Dysfunction but Normalized Islet Mass in Aged Thrombospondin-1 Deficient Mice
Pancreatic islet endothelial cells have in recent years been shown to support beta-cell mass and function by paracrine interactions. Recently, we identified an islets endothelial-specific glycoprotein, thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1), that showed to be of importance for islet angiogenesis and beta-cell function in young mice. The present study aimed to investigate long-term consequences for islet morp...
متن کاملConfirmation of parametric hypotheses
Econometricians commonly want to confirm some precise hypothesis, such as a consequence of economic theory, an economic hypothesis, or a econometric modeling assumption. In practice, researchers routinely use significance tests that can only fail to reject the hypothesis of interest. Generalizing previous work by Romano (2005), I propose a new theoretical framework for confirmation of multivari...
متن کاملThe Numerical Reliability of Econometric Software
A FROM COST considerations, economists generally choose their software by its user-friendliness or for specialized features. They rarely worry whether the answer provided by the software is correct (i.e., whether the software is reliable). The economist, whose degree is not in computer science, can hardly be faulted for this: is it not the job of the software developer to ensure reliability? Ca...
متن کاملFacilitating applied economic research with Stata
Applied empirical research in economics and finance has traditionally involved the use of two types of high-level software: statistical/econometric packages, such as TSP, SAS, RATS or eViews, and matrix languages, such as MATLAB, GAUSS, S-Plus or Ox. Each type has its strengths and weaknesses. In this essay, we describe the middle ground posed by the statistical package and its programming lang...
متن کامل2/RT/95 - Econometrics and Truth
Econometrics and Truth The second half of the sixties was, at first sight, the golden age of econometrics. At the time, it appeared that some minor advances in theory, data and computer facilities would allow us to construct an econometric model which would chart the course to universal prosperity. The seventies were to deal a cruel blow to these extravagant expectations. This rise and fall of ...
