This paper examines the equilibrium growth effect of money/inflation within a standard one-sector AK model of endogenous growth with the most generalized cash-in-advance constraint and wealth-enhanced preferences for social status. We show that the sign for the correlation between money and output growth depends crucially on (i) the liquidityconstrained ratio of consumption to investment expend...

BACKGROUND Poor growth and under-nutrition are common in children with sickle cell disease (SCD). This review summarises evidence of nutritional status in children with SCD in relation to anthropometric status, disease severity, body composition, energy metabolism, micronutrient deficiency and endocrine dysfunction. METHODS A literature search was conducted on the Medline/PUBMED, SCOPUS, SciE...

Relatively few methods involving dietary manipulation of thyroid status have been used to study the effect of that status on growth and body composition as well as on changes in hormone levels and metabolism. The present work examines the influence of either a hyperthyroid status (induced by feeding triiodothyronine: T3 or thyroxine: T4) or a hypothyroid status (induced by feeding methimazole: ...
