Capital flows are responsible for a strong influence on the foreign exchange rates and stock prices macroeconomic parameters. In volatile economies, capital flows can change due to several types of social, political and economic events, provoking oscillations on these parameters, which are recognized as economic crises. This work aims to investigate how these two macroeconomic variables are rel...

 In this paper, we consider a flexible skew-generalized normal distribution. This distribution is denoted by $FSGN(/lambda _1, /lambda _2 /theta)$. It contains the normal, skew-normal (Azzalini, 1985), skew generalized normal (Arellano-Valle et al., 2004) and skew flexible-normal (Gomez et al., 2011) distributions as special cases. Some important properties of this distribution are establi...

The present article summarizes the doctoral dissertation of Javier Gomez

There have been a number of reports on the general pathology of malnutrition, especially kwashiorkor, which have included careful studies of the exocrine glands (Davies, 1948; Jelliffe, Bras and Stuart, 1954; Tejada, 1955). However, little is known of the pathology of the endocrine glands in this condition. Clinical studies of malnourished adults show that they may have pigmentation of the skin...
