The Globalization in the actual Context of the European Union Economy

Abstract

In this paper, the authors aim to realize an in-depth analysis of the current characteristics of the globalization phenomenon from the viewpoint of the European Union and Romanian economy. The study will pursue some of the globalization indicators published by Eurostat, their status and a multidimensional perspective on their evolution. Namely, the foreign trade, the foreign direct investments, the employment, value added shall be subjected to analysis. The authors will apply statistical and econometric techniques to outline the behavior of economic globalization, depending on the values and dynamics of the support indicators. The structural and dynamic evaluation shall consider the main aspect of the multi-dimensional perspective, the geographical dimension. Both statistical and econometric tools applied lead to a set of conclusions, either general or subject-oriented, which show the present impact and trends of globalization in the European Union and Romanian economic activity. The research question was focused on how strong is the influence of globalization indicators on the economic growth for European Union and Romania. The results outline the behavior of the globalization indicators in the recent period, with focus on the effects of the economic crisis. The main indicators considered were the net export, import, export and the foreign direct investments, and their impact of the Gross Domestic Product is also revealed.

Quality of life in Romanian patients with schizophrenia based on gender, type of schizophrenia, therapeutic approach, and family history

“…Our results contrast with those reported by Shtasel et al (on patients without medication) who concluded that women had a better quality of life than men, specifically in the social and relationship domains (31). Our findings using the WHO-QoL -BREF score were similar to the results obtained of Yu-Tao Xiang and colleagues who showed that female patients suffering from schizophrenia had a lower quality of life than men who had the same illness (32).…”

Functional radical cervical dissection for differentiated thyroid cancer: the experience of a single center

“…A helpful tip is to set the markers along the nerve course (which projects superficially by connecting the mandible angle and the mastoid process), addressing this line in middle. The lower course of this line should be avoided, as it generally represents the assumed path of the spinal accessory nerve (23).…”

Pancreatogenic type 3C diabetes

“…The type IIIC diabetes nomenclature was first proposed in 2014 by the American Diabetes Association, with the name type 3c diabetes now commonly accepted (17)(18)(19). The most widely reported conditions are the presence of chronic pancreatitis (79%), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (8%), haemochromatosis (7%), cystic fibrosis (4%), and previous pancreatic surgery (2%) (20)(21)(22).…”

“…Those patients developing DM are likely to have co-existing pancreatic exocrine insufficiency. The treatment administered on one hand, and the enzymatic insufficiency instituted following chronic pancreatitis on the other hand, contribute to the disease expression and evolution (21). The major risks in all these circumstances are those of severe hypoglycemia characteristic of T3cDM.…”
