The level of development in health is an important criterion for countries. In a study aimed at measuring the performance system Azerbaijan on provincial basis, change efficiency 56 cities between 2015-2019 was analyzed with Malmquist Total Factor Productivity Index (MPI). As input variable, number hospital beds, workers and physicians were used provinces. values variables are figures per 10,00...

abstract research and development (r&d;) spending plays a major role in innovation, raising productivity and increasing economic growth. the purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of r&d; spending on growth and total factor productivity (tfp) in iran's agricultural sector. we estimate growth and productivity models using auto-regressive distributed lag (ardl) approach and data over ...

This paper revisits the discussion about the contribution of Total Factor Productivity (TFP) growth to Indonesia’s economic growth during 1971-2005. It re-estimates the contribution of TFP to economic growth during this period on the basis of new estimates of GDP, capital stock, education-adjusted employment, and factor income shares. After accounting for the growth of capital stock and educati...

Through their influence on the cross-sectional distribution of productivity across firms and workers, job creation and destruction likely have an impact on the rate at which aggregate productivity changes over time. However, the nature of this effect is not, a priori, clear. While a broad consensus has emerged suggesting that job destruction enhances productivity by eliminating inefficient prod...

Education, Governance and Trade-Related Technology Diffusion in Latin America This paper examines the impact on TFP of North-South trade-related technology diffusion in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). North-South R&D flows are constructed based on industry-specific R&D in the North, North-South trade patterns, and input-output relations in the South. The main findings are: (i) Education ...

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most lethal form of breast cancer. Lacking effective therapeutic options hinders treatment of TNBC. Here, we show that bepridil (BPD) and trifluoperazine (TFP), which are FDA-approved drugs for treatment of schizophrenia and angina respectively, inhibit Akt-pS473 phosphorylation and promote FOXO3 nuclear localization and activation in TNBC cells. BPD ...

Optimizing the industry development system and implementing a high-quality strategy in China’s coal require us to grasp overall status regional differences of industrial development. Measuring decomposing total factor productivity growth is necessary prerequisite. In this study, we estimated (TFP) 24 major coal-producing provinces China by constructing stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) model b...
