The withdrawal of foreign capital from emerging countries at the height of the recent financial crisis and its quick return sparked a debate about the impact of capital flow surges on asset markets. This paper addresses the response of property prices to an inflow of foreign capital. For that purpose we estimate a panel VAR on a set of Asian emerging market economies, for which the waves of inf...

In this paper, we show how participants learn to control a simple dynamic stocks and flows task with repeated inflow and outflow decisions. We present the effect that environmental inflow functions of different slopes (positive and negative) have on our ability to control the simple dynamic system. We investigate this slope effect in two experiments with two kinds of functions (linear and non-l...

Background Mitral valve repair (MVR) shows clinical and economic superiority over mitral valve replacement in patients with dystrophic and rheumatic regurgitation, but outcomes are less certain in chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR). We hypothesize that MVR may have adverse effects on LV hemodynamics resulting from suboptimal annuloplasty geometry and post-repair mitral valve stenosis w...

The simulation of turbulent boundary layers requires quite detailed inflow information since the resolved flow is unsteady and three-dimensional. Rather than simulating laminar and transitional regions arising near a leading edge, it is often more computationally efficient to formulate a fully turbulent inflow condition. To date, three types of methods for creating appropriate inflow conditions...

Hepatic pseudolesions and pseudotumors of the third inflow area are sometimes encountered on imaging. Generally, differentiating these lesions of true hepatic neoplasm on radiological examinations is easy with the knowledge of common sites in the liver and characteristic indications of these lesions. However, they occasionally mimic hepatocellular carcinoma in various imaging modalities. In thi...

Background Patients after atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) repair have aberrant atrioventricular valve morphology resulting in a disorganized left ventricular (LV) inflow [1] with an increased amount of inflow reaching the apical level of the LV and retaining there during the subsequent systole [1]. This may elevate energy loss in LV flow due to friction. We aimed to evaluate the associati...

We discuss the options of the fall-back disk model of Anomalous X-Ray Pulsars (AXPs). We argue that the power-law index of the mass inflow rate during the propeller stage can be lower than those employed in earlier models. We take into account the effect of the super-critical mass inflow at the earliest stages on the inner radius of the disk and argue that the system starts as a propeller. Our ...

BACKGROUND The KDIGO work group recommends increasing dialytic phosphorus removal in Stage 5D chronic kidney disease patients with persistent hyperphosphatemia; however, optimal prescriptions to enhance phosphorus removal by hemodialysis (HD) therapies have not yet been established. This study evaluated whether phosphorus kinetic modeling based on a pseudo one-compartment model could provide pr...
