Every economics textbook will tell you that banking is at its core a process of intermediation designed to facilitate the transfer savings into investment. In some respects fractional reserve does this much too well. It system which takes deposits and lends them out. The problem built on – for want better word deceit. Borrowers are offered secure term contracts, while depositors promised their ...

Excess food intake leads to obesity and diabetes, both of which are well-known independent risk factors for atherosclerosis, and both of which are growing epidemics in an aging population. We hypothesized that aging enhances the metabolic and vascular effects of high fat diet (HFD) and therefore examined the effect of age on atherosclerosis and insulin resistance in lipoprotein receptor knockou...

Introduction: Based on both international and national health statistics, accidents from various mechanisms are among the most common causes of death in childhood. Our aim was to examine the first aid and accident prevention knowledge and attitudes of parents. Materials and methods: In this study, parents of 3–7 years old children were involved in six kindergartens located in Hungary. A self-fi...

The fully open state of heterotypic gap junction channels formed by pairing cells expressing connexin 32 (Cx32) with those expressing connexin 26 (Cx26) rectifies in a way that cannot be predicted from the current-voltage (I-V) relation of either homotypic channel. Using a molecular genetic analysis, we demonstrate that charged amino acids positioned in the amino terminus (M1 and D2) and first ...

To identify mechanisms that regulate neuronal form in the mammalian CNS, we have examined dendritic development in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) during the period of segregation of retinal ganglion cell axons. The tracer Dil was used to label retrogradely LGN neurons that send their axons to primary visual cortex at different ages between embryonic day 36 (E36) and E60 in the cat. LGN ne...

Bank runs in the literature take the form of withdrawals of demand deposits payable in real goods, which deplete a …xed reserve of goods in the banking system. That framework describes traditional bank runs based on currency withdrawals as occurred historically in the U.S. and more recently in developing countries. However, in a modern banking system, large withdrawals typically take the form o...

This essay follows the synergies and complementarities between European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) and the optimum currency area (OCA) theory. Various advancements in economic theory and econometrics have made it possible to progress from the “early OCA theory” to a “new OCA theory”. The balance of judgements has shifted in favour of monetary union: it is deemed to generate fewer costs a...
