Around this question, a large body of literature came to exist over the past two decades using mainly parametric empirical specifications of the EKC model (see Stem 2004 and Pasten and Figueroa 2012 for a discussion on the links between the theory and its applications).
Under the EKC hypothesis, [beta]1 sign is assumed to be positive and [beta]2 to be negative.
A case was defined as 1) diagnosis of EKC, adenoviral conjunctivitis, or viral conjunctivitis by an ophthalmologist or optometrist; or 2) laboratory confirmation of HAdV from a specimen collected by conjunctival swab in a person seen at the optometry clinic during June 5-July 3, 2017.
(5) in addition to having a well established place in the diagnosis and follow-up of many corneal diseases, studies including iVCM findings have also shown corneal changes in the various stages of EKC. These studies described changes starting at the basal epithelium level and extending into the midstroma, while images targeting the subepithelial infiltration period showed focal inflammatory foci.
The coefficient of variable [CO.sub.2] is confirming the hypothesis of Environment Kuznets Curve (EKC) in the case of East Asia and South Asia.
Further, Soytas, Sari, and Ewing (2007) included carbon emissions in their multivariate framework to test for the EKC and the causality tests revealed no link between energy and income.
Bridging STIRPAT and EKC via robust heterogeneous panel estimates," Global Environmental Change, vol.
demonstrated that the correct identification of patients with viral conjunctivitis might reduce the costs related to inadequate use of antibiotics in patients with EKC. (10) Inappropriate antibiotic drops and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drops may lead to histological and structural toxicity in conjunctiva.
Alcohol does not kill most viruses and is ineffective against threats like EKC, Hepatitis virus, and HIV.
kansui radix extracted with methanol (EKC) repressed DSS-induced colitis (unpublished data).
Over the years, a number of methods and models have been developed to explore the links between economy and water demand or wastewater quantity of a city, such as (1) the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) method [1, 2]; (2) Input-Output Model [3-6]; (3) Econometric Methods [7, 8] and Time Series [9, 10]; and (4) Artificial Intelligence Methods [11-13].
Interest in the link between income per capita and environmental quality arose from the pioneering work of Grossman and Krueger (1991) on the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which immediately led to a very extensive literature on what Panayotou (1993) termed the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC).The seminal work by Grossman and Krueger (1991) paved the way for the empirical testing of the EKC theory and allowed numerous studies to explore linear and non-linear relationships between economic activity and emissions.
In contrast to previous studies, we find that intelligence has inverted U-shaped link with CO2 emissions, so called "intelligence Kuznets curve" similar to environmental Kuznets curve (EKC).
