The n-of-1 trial is a particularly flexible form of randomized controlled trial that involves a single patient receiving multiple episodes of alternative therapies. Although n-of-1 trials are only applicable in certain treatment areas, the collection of economic data within such trials may provide unique advantages. This paper illustrates the issues around the use of economic n-of-1 trials with...

Regional economic integration is the development trend of market economy. Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei Metropolitan Circle has great development potential, and therefore, bringing their industrial advantages into full play and realizing the coordinated development of three industries, play very important role in promoting the economic development of this area. This paper analyzes the necessity of...

Output gap estimates are used in the calculation of structural fiscal balance indicators which are subsequently employed for the surveillance of economic growth and stability. This paper reviews the main methodologies for estimating the potential output and output gap. Methodologies can be grouped into two categories: the non-structural ones, which are not based on economic theory and are mainl...

Geographical economics analyzes the endogenous determination of the location of economic activity in a general equilibrium framework. We investigate the impact of pollution by focusing on the interaction between location advantages and negative pollution externalities associated with local production. We distinguish between two goods (food and manufactures) and two factors of production (mobile...

The relationship among payment style of subsidies, economic growth and poverty is a matter of challenge among economists and policy makers. Neoliberal Institutional Structure in framework of what is called “Washington Consensus” and “structural adjustment policies and economic stabilization” argues on economic advantages of removing food general subsidies so necessity of replacing a most libera...

We present a techno-economic analysis of services deployed over integrated satellite-terrestrial networks which employ an Information-Centric Networking (ICN) architecture. Our methodology provides a systematic procedure to assess the gains of various service integration scenarios, initially identifying the technical capabilities for which ICN can provide advantages and considering the requirem...

An efficient and environmental-friendly synthetic route to 1,8-dioxodecahydroacridines derivatives have been developed via multi-component one-pot Hantzsch reaction of various aldehydes and ammonium acetate with 2 equivalents dimedone in the presence of Phosphorus pentoxide supported on aluminaas catalyst under solvent-free conditions. The present approach offersseveral advantages such as short...
