Firm‐Level Productivity and Stock Return: Evidence from Taiwan
Abstract We examine whether firm‐level total factor productivity (TFP) in Taiwan predicts the cross section of stock returns. We estimate TFP in Taiwan and find that, in contrast to negative relationships documented for US firms, high TFP firms earn higher expected returns than l...

Neurotransmitter Systems and Systemic Resilience in the Healthy Aging Brain
Physiological brain aging is driven by progressive neuro-glial-vascular remodeling, in which neurotransmitter systems serve as the core functional network integrating central resilience and peripheral systemic signaling. This narrative review provides a comprehensive synthesis of...

Complexation of Eu(III) in Aqueous Solution: Glyphosate vs. N-Methylglyphosate
N-Methylation represents a subtle structural modification of glyphosate that may alter the coupling between ligand protonation and metal coordination, yet its influence on lanthanide complexation remains insufficiently understood. In this study, the protonation and Eu(III) comple...
