Metabolic processes that release energy within the myocardium can be separated into aerobic metabolism, i.e., chemical reactions consuming O2, and anaerobic metabolism, defined here as chemical reactions not consuming 2, even though 02 may be present in the environment. The total energy that is set free by both types of process appears partially as heat within the myocardium and partially as me...

The relationship between economic growth and energy consumption is one of the hot topics in economic research. There are many literatures concern about this topic from theoretical and empirical viewpoint. This paper applies panel unit root, heterogeneous panel cointegration and production function to investigate the relationship between energy consumption and economic growth within a multivaria...

Background Studies investigating diet-related environmental impacts have rarely considered the production method of the foods consumed. The objective of the present study, based on the NutriNet-Santé cohort, was to investigate the relationship between a provegetarian score and diet-related environmental impacts. We also evaluated potential effect modifications on the association between a prove...

the objectives of this research were to investigate influences of energy inputs and energy forms on output levels and evaluation of co2 emissions for hazelnut production in guilan province of iran. moreover, the sensitivity analysis was done by marginal physical productivity (mpp) method for energy inputs and energy using linear regression. initial data were collected from 120 orchardists in se...

In the inquiry on the age related dietary assessment of an organism, knowledge of the distributional patterns of food intake throughout the entire life span is very important, however, age related nutritional studies often lack robust feeding quantification methods due to their limitations in obtaining short-term food-intake measurements. In this study, we developed and standardized a capillary...

the effect of economic growth and free trade on environment and transnational pollutions is one of the most important current discussions in the field of environmental economics. nowadays, the economics, social and developmental consequences of the climatic changes around the world is increasingly accepted and approved. in fact, the environment is considered as one of the key elements for susta...

First, this paper estimates the dimensions of the market for cannabis in Spain using data on the extent of consumption and the main patterns of use of consumers. Then the paper reviews the hypothetical production and distribution costs of these drugs in different production regimes under different legal conditions. The review shows that current prices of cannabis in the illegal market could be ...
