The extant literature on fat taxes and thin subsidies tends to focus on the overall e ectiveness of such scal instruments in altering diets and improving health. However, little is known about the welfare impacts of scal food policies on society. This paper lls a gap in the literature by assessing the distributional impacts and welfare e ects resulting from a tax-subsidy combination on di erent...

the ultrastructure of the cells, na+, k+-atpase activity and immunolocalization were examined in the barnchial chamber of libellula lydia (drury, 1773) larvae. na+,k+-atpase activity and localization were performed through biochemical techniques and immunofluorescence light microscopy using a mouse monoclonal antibody iggα5, respectively. the branchial chamber possesses six pair gills lamellae ...

We predicted that the perceived likelihood of acquiring a hoped-for thin self would mediate perfectionistic strivings on dietary restraint, and that the perceived likelihood of acquiring a feared fat self would mediate perfectionistic concerns on dietary restraint. We also predicted that the mediation pathway from perfectionistic concerns to dietary restraint would have a greater impact than th...

OBJECTIVE To describe the interdomal fat pad, an important anatomical structure that, to our knowledge, has not been reported in the rhinoplasty literature. DESIGN Anatomical observations were made during a consecutive series of external rhinoplasties, and the existence of the interdomal fat pad was documented in patients with noses of varying nasal skin thicknesses. SETTING Private facial ...

The present study examined the quantitative and qualitative physical parameters of prolific local ewes in Bawen Jambu districts, Central Java. We used purposive sampling to select categorized 132 local, three-lambing into three groups based on their capacity: 66 single, 49 twins 17 triplets. data were subjected analysis variance using Chi-Square. result showed that many properties resembled tho...

BACKGROUND Obesity is a worldwide epidemic and a significant risk factor for pancreatic diseases including pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer; the mechanisms underlying this association are unknown. Metabolomics is a powerful new analytical approach for describing the metabolome (compliment of small molecules) of cells, tissue or biofluids at any given time. Our aim was to analyze pancreatic fa...

this paper addresses the annealing temperature effect on nanostructure and phase transition of copper oxide thin films, deposited by pvd method on glass substrate (at 110 nm thickness) and post annealed at different temperatures (200-400°c) with a flow of 1 cm3s-1 oxygen. the x-ray diffraction (xrd) was employed for crystallographic and phase analyses, while atomic force microscopy (afm) was us...

How much environmental damage would result from unabated water pollution, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, toxic waste disposal, and other potentially destructive activities? And whatever that environmental damage is expected to be, what economic and social cost will it have? In other words, what is the benefit of taking costly actions today or in the near future to reduce rates of pollution and...
