Variational Inequality Formulation and Algorithmic Computation of Dynamic Economic Equilibria

This paper presents a computational implementation of a dynamic Walrasian equilibrium model in continuous time, formulated via variational inequality (VI) and quasi-variational inequality (QVI) frameworks. Building on the theoretical existence and stability results of the underlying equilibrium model, we discretize the time interval and implement a projected extragradient algorithm on the price simplex to compute equilibrium prices and allocations. We illustrate convergence behavior in a styl...

Ketogenic diet and microRNAs: focus on cognitive function

Cognition is a mental process of understanding and learning driven by memory. Recent advances in molecular biology and neuroscience have revealed a fascinating interplay between cognitive function and microRNAs (miRNAs). The ketogenic diet (KD) is a low-carbohydrate, high-fat, and adequate-protein diet that triggers the synthesis of ketone bodies, establishing ketosis. Recent and accumulating studies on human and animal models have shown that the KD benefits neurodegenerative diseases, where ...

A review of microRNA in cheese: From processing to putative biological implications

Dairy products hold high esteem in the area of food microRNAs (miRNAs) as a result of human breast milk being the first documented source of extrageneous miRNAs which is food-related. Thus, this makes milk from other species commercially available for consumption to be a subject of intense scrutiny. The observation of the possible evolutionary role of miRNAs, which are small single-stranded RNAs of about 22 nucleotides long capable of post-transcriptional gene expression control, borne out of...
