The structural similarities of the heavy chains (HC) of myosin isolated from atria and ventricles of hyper-, hypo-, and euthyroid rabbits were compared by immunological analysis, by one- and two-dimensional peptide mapping, and by electrophoresis under nondenaturing conditions. Monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies, which are specific for HC alpha of ventricular myosin, cross-reacted equally wit...

Starting from current concerns in Ireland, this paper develops a perspective on the changing nature of second home ownership. The growth of housing wealth and extended spatial mobility in rich EU countries, as in other wealthy regions, has spawned explosive growth in the ownership of ‘second’ and more ‘homes’ across the EU and beyond. This paper explores aspects of the growth of transnational m...

The neoclassical growth model and the Roback of spatial general equilibrium (SGE) are integrated to study joint determination macroeconomic phenomena (gross domestic product (GDP) rate interest) economic (the distribution gross regional (GRP), employment capital). If internal capital mobility is perfect savings rates homogeneous, GDP depends on SGE, but SGE does not depend GDP. saving spatially...

State of the art dimension reduction and classification schemes in multiand hyper-spectral imaging rely primarily on the information contained in the spectral component. To better capture the joint spatial and spectral data distribution we combine the Wavelet Packet Transform with the linear dimension reduction method of Principal Component Analysis. Each spectral band is decomposed by means of...

There is considerable variation in the range ofmovements which are possible in the joints of normal individuals. In general, females are more mobile than males, while joint laxity decreases with age (Ellis and Bundick, 1956; Wynne-Davies, 1971). Ethnic differences in joint mobility have also been described. For instance, Negroes and Indians have been shown to have a greater range of movements t...

Are Earnings Inequality and Mobility Overstated? The Impact of Non-Classical Measurement Error Measures of inequality and mobility based on self-reported earnings reflect attributes of both the joint distribution of earnings across time and the joint distribution of measurement error and earnings. While classical measurement error would increase measures of inequality and mobility there is subs...

OBJECTIVE To determine differences in health status of people aged 55 to 74 years with pain in the hip or knee only and with additional mobility restricting conditions. METHODS A subsample from a community based study on pain, disability, comorbidity, and radiological osteoarthritis (OA) was used to identify a group with current pain in the hip or knee only (n = 62), a group with additional m...
