Background Autoantibodies against the 81-adrenoceptor have been detected in the sera of patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). The mechanisms by which these autoantibodies can alter normal receptor function are investigated, and the results are interpreted in the light of the beneficial effects of P1-blockade in some of these patients. Methods and Results Autoantibodies against ...

The purpose of this study is to examine the degree exchange rate pass-through (ERPT) with focus on Taylor (2000)’s hypothesis that asserts ERPT tends be high (low) in inflation states. To end, a panel quantile regression applied data from 37 countries over period 1996-2018. allows us capture distributional heterogeneity coefficient and thus directly address question whether depends inflationary...

We use microdata collected at the border and store to characterize price impact of recent US trade policy on importers, exporters, consumers. At border, import tariff pass-through is much higher than exchange rate pass-through. Chinese exporters did not lower their dollar prices by much, despite appreciation dollar. By contrast, significantly lowered affected foreign retaliatory tariffs. In sto...

The study examines the asymmetric effect of oil price on exchange rate and stock using Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributive Lag (NARDL) technique time-series data spanning from January 1996 to September 2020. multivariate cointegration test showed evidence a long-run relationship among price, rate, price. linear Granger causality that is granger caused by cause rate. nonlinear nonlinearity BDS...

In many situations in macroeconomics strategic complementarities arise, and agents face a coordination problem. An important issue, from both a theoretical and a policy perspective, is equilibrium uniqueness. We contribute to this literature by focusing on the macroeconomic aspect of the problem: the number of potential innovators, speculators e.t.c. is large. In particular, we follow Myerson (...

This paper analyzes the effects of exchange rate volatility on bilateral trade flows. Through use of a gravity model and panel data from western Europe, exchange rate uncertainty is found to have a negative effect on international trade. The results seem to be robust with respect to the particular measures representing exchange rate uncertainty. Particular attention is reserved for problems of ...

Notwithstanding its widespread use in financial markets and well-documented profitability, technical analysis is still perceived to carry useless information. This paper provides a possible explanation for this puzzle that goes beyond the standard self-fulfilling prophecy argument. If at least some of the asset price fundamentals are not currently observable, the oscillator model is able to inf...

This paper presents a simultaneous model of exchange rates between the US dollar, German mark and Japanese yen. In addition to incorporating long-run equilibria and short-run dynamics, the model is designed to capture complex interaction between currencies not normally considered in exchange rate models. The model is demonstrated to be an economically and statistically superior forecasting tool...
