Multi-dimensional sleep patterns predict complications and mortality in chronic kidney disease patients: a prospective study from the UK Biobank
Abstract Background: The complex interplay of multiple sleep factors may affect the risk of complications and mortality in the chronic kidney disease (CKD) population. However, few studies have examined multi-dimensional sleep health in CKD populations. Methods: Our cohort study included 15,809 participants with laboratory-observed kidney dysfunction or a CKD diagnosis during 2006–2010 from the UK Biobank.

Laser frequency stabilization method based on a ladder-type Rydberg atom electromagnetically induced transparency
We established a theoretical model for the ladder-type EIT laser frequency stabilization method based on the analysis of the system response. By using the method of deriving the density matrix equations, we obtained the density matrix elements of the three-level system and subsequently derived the system’s response function. Based on this, we revealed the complex interference mechanism of the modulated probe light in the atomic medium.

Health co-benefits of post-COVID-19 low-carbon recovery in Chinese cities - Nature Cities
Abstract Post-pandemic green recovery is pivotal in achieving global sustainable development goals by simultaneously revitalizing economies and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution and improving public welfare. However, subnational and city-level understanding of green recovery, its efficacy and its alignment with public health is poorly understood.

Three-Axial Strain-Triggered Multimode Wrinkles with Tuneable Frictional and Optical Performances

California’s SB 331 Extends Sweeping Changes to Workplace Settlement and Separation Agreements
Friday, November 19, 2021 In 2018, California passed Senate Bill 820, the STAND Act (Stand Together Against Non-Disclosure Act), in response to the #MeToo movement. SB 820 prohibited the use of confidentiality provisions in settlement agreements where the underlying claims were based upon sexual assault, sexual harassment, and workplace harassment or discrimination based on sex. The law did not extend to claims based upon other protected characteristics.
No Chance for A Romantic Dinner in Your Favorite Restaurant on Valentine’s Day? Try TPC’s Marriage Calculator Instead
Depressed that you won’t be dining out in a romantic restaurant with your loved one this Valentine’s Day? The Tax Policy Center has a prescription for the pandemic blues. Spend time with TPC’s updated Marriage Calculator for tax year 2021. Here’s what you’ll learn: Depending on your circumstances, marriage may cause your tax bill to go down (a marriage bonus) or go up (a marriage penalty). Or wedded bliss may have no impact at all (on your taxes, that is).

An Analysis of Former Vice President Biden’s Tax Proposals
In this brief, we estimate the revenue and distributional effects of former vice president Joe Biden's 2020 campaign tax proposals. Biden's spending proposals would also have important distributional and economic effects, but we have not estimated the distributional effects of those initiatives.

Exploring Alternatives to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
Exploring Alternatives to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act March 26, 2019 The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) brought about the biggest change to federal tax policy in decades. Signed into law less than two months after its formal introduction in Congress, the TCJA made many substantial changes to tax policy. During that time, the public didn’t have the opportunity to see a wide range of alternative plans, and tax experts’ ability to quickly analyze the effects of so many changes was limited.
Columbia | SIPA Center on Global Energy Policy
Tuesday, July 17, 2018 By Joseph Rosenberg, Eric Toder and Chenxi Lu download the PDF Executive summary A federal carbon tax in the United States would reduce greenhouse gas emissions and generate significant new revenue for the federal government.
Distributional Implications of a Carbon Tax
In this paper, part of the Carbon Tax Research Initiative led by Columbia University’s SIPA Center on Global Energy Policy, we estimate how a carbon tax would affect the distribution of tax burdens across US taxpayers. We consider three carbon tax scenarios that would price carbon at roughly $14, $50, and $73 (in 2016 dollars) per metric ton starting in 2020 and increasing thereafter between 1 and 3 percent per year.
The effects of the China-Russia gas deal on energy consumption, carbon emission, and particulate matter pollution in China
On 21 May 2014, Russian energy giant Gazprom and the China National Petroleum Corporation signed a historic gas supply agreement in the presence of President Vladimir Putin of Russia and President Xi Jinping of China.1 By 2020, Russia intends to export 38 × 109 m3 of gas annually to China from untapped fields in East Siberia, with an economic value of US$400 × 109; the deal is intended to last for 30 years.2 This agreement has many implications for both sides.
Do Estate and Inheritance Taxes Affect Entrepreneurship?
Despite its relatively small role in the federal taxation system—accounting for less than 1 percent of revenues—the estate and gift tax is controversial. This brief surveys research on the effect of estate and inheritance taxes on entrepreneurship and presents new evidence. We find that receiving an inheritance increases the likelihood of owning and managing a business.
The Effects of Estate and Inheritance Taxes on Entrepreneurship
Despite its relatively small role in the federal taxation system—accounting for less than 1 percent of revenues—the estate and gift tax is controversial. This paper surveys evidence on the effect of estate and inheritance taxes on entrepreneurship and presents some new evidence.
Itemized Deductions
This year, Congress will consider what may be the biggest tax bill in decades. This is one of a series of briefs the Tax Policy Center has prepared to help people follow the debate. Each focuses on a key tax policy issue that Congress and the Trump administration may address. To reduce the taxable income on a federal income tax return, a taxpayer can either take a standard deduction or itemize deductions.
How would a mortgage tax credit affect you?
Reforming the mortgage interest deduction would raise taxes overall by about $240 billion, while benefiting low- and moderate-income taxpayers and boosting rates on higher earners. In a new report, the Tax Policy Center has analyzed three ways to reform the mortgage interest deduction (MID), including a proposal to replace the MID with a 15 percent non-refundable credit for mortgages of $500,000 or less (the deduction is currently available for mortgages of $1 million or less).
Effects of Reforms of the Home Mortgage Interest Deduction by Income Group and by State
This report considers three options for restructuring the home mortgage interest deduction – replacing the deduction with a 15 percent non-refundable interest credit, reducing the ceiling on debt eligible for an interest subsidy to $500,000, and combining the substitution of the credit for the deduction with the reduced limit on the interest subsidy. All three options would raise federal tax revenue and make the tax system more progressive.
Both Clinton and Trump would reduce tax incentives for charitable giving
Both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have proposed income* tax changes that would result in less charitable giving. While the effects are indirect, the Tax Policy Center estimates that Trump’s plan would reduce individual giving by 4.5 percent to 9 percent, or between $13.5 billion and $26.1 billion in 2017, while Clinton’s plan would reduce giving by between 2 percent and 4 percent, or $6 billion to $11.7 billion.
