![]() ![]() When large firms, protected by entry barriers, can insulate themselves from the constraints of competition, we stand to lose both economically and socially. economy depends on market competition to direct capital to its most efficient uses, encourage innovation, reduce the costs of what consumers need and want, and provide alternatives to business practices that have negative impacts on people’s lives. It is important for that scrutiny to take place. Department of Justice’s (DOJ) Antitrust Division. There is, however, enough publicly available information to suggest the need for close scrutiny by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the U.S. Nor does it imply that an antitrust investigation would lead to an enforcement action after a thorough inquiry that provided access to confidential company information. The selection of these examples is not meant to imply that there are not competitive issues elsewhere, at these or other digital service companies. This brief explores four examples of areas where there appear to be both entry barriers and potentially anti-competitive behavior at Google, Facebook, Apple, and Amazon. The underlying presumption may be that competitors will eventually find ways to replicate most desirable goods and services, and society will regulate persistent and publicly important monopolies. It is intended to prohibit acts that are designed to create or extend monopoly power, while leaving the creation of novel, desirable, and efficiently made products and services untouched. antitrust law distinguishes among the different sources of market power. But barriers can also arise from, and be sustained by, behaviors that are designed to frustrate entry and preserve market power. Or it may have managed to establish a business protected by network effects-that is to say, one that has the characteristics of a telephone network, becoming more valuable to existing users as more people start to use it. A firm may deliver products or services that others cannot replicate, or at costs they cannot match. These barriers can derive from a variety of sources. In this economy, market power exists because of entry barriers-factors that prevent competitors from entering a market with higher-than-normal returns. These and other factors have raised the antennae of economists, antitrust scholars, and competition authorities in the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, and Australia. 4 These valuations reflect the current and expected profitability of these companies.Īlthough the business activities of these companies are quite complex, it is apparent that they have significant influence over important aspects of the digital economy: Google in online search Facebook in social networks Amazon in e-commerce sales and delivery Apple in smart phones and related software apps and Microsoft in business software. Their revenue comes from targeted, real-time digital advertising, both commercial and political.Īs a consequence of their integration into household behavior and commerce, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and Facebook are among the very largest companies in the world in terms of market capitalization. ![]() Some digital service companies, by virtue of what they sell or provide for free, have developed the capacity to closely monitor the digital activity of individuals across the internet and monetize the results of that surveillance. Households spend significant resources on digital hardware and software for personal and work-related purposes, using these services for a huge set of activities, including communication, internet search, social networking, and the purchase of goods and services. Interest in these companies derives from the increasingly important role that digital services now play in the lives of individuals, commerce, and politics. Even though detailed information about business practices and competitive conditions can be hard to find, there is enough publicly available information to suggest that close antitrust scrutiny is in order for some of these firms. 3Īlthough the competition problem pervades the economy, there has been intense focus on the market power of large U.S. But these alternative explanations are becoming harder to sustain as empirical research accumulates. ![]() ![]() It is possible to take issue with any one of these measures and to argue that some of these trends actually reflect superstar levels of efficiency and returns to scale. 1 Moreover, stock market participants have been signaling the problem by assigning very high equity values to a relatively small subset of public firms earning monopoly profits.

Gold Rush has been designed taking all nine classes and their abilities in Team Fortress 2 into account, which means there is a spot for everyone and their favorite class to be useful.įor long-time Team Fortress fans it should evoke feelings of both Dustbowl, in terms of layout and team goals, and Hunted, as it has a central objective that forces the battlefield to move through the map dynamically. As the payload moves through the map both teams need to be able to adjust their strategy depending on what approach the other is taking. Each member of the team needs to focus on both the overall goal of either stopping or advancing the payload and also deal with local threats. Gold Rush is a map that specifically focuses on pacing so that the player feels like they are part of an overall campaign by the team. If no one has pushed the cart forward after 30 seconds, the cart will begin to move backward until it is pushed forward again. Blu pushes the cart through the level by standing near it, with the cart moving faster when more people are close by. The goal for the Blu team is to push the bomb payload through the level until it reaches the next capture point, eventually destroying all three of Red's major bases. The teams are split between offense (Blu) and defense (Red) similar to Dustbowl. The level is split into three separate areas with intermediate capture zones inside of each major chapter. Gold Rush is an entirely new level featuring a new gameplay style called Payload. ![]() ![]() ![]() Further studies in women with catamenial epilepsy are needed in this area. ![]() Our review highlights an overall lack of information on the effectiveness of a wide range of other hormonal and non-hormonal treatments currently being used. We found very limited, mostly low-certainty evidence, of no difference in seizure outcomes for norethisterone and progesterone versus placebo in women with catamenial epilepsy. We judged the certainty of the evidence to be very low to moderate, as the included studies provided unclear information on methods of blinding, recruited small numbers of participants, and were inconsistent in reporting treatment outcomes. The included studies reported limited information on side effects, but women taking progesterone were no more likely to withdraw from the study due to side effects than those receiving placebo. The included studies did not demonstrate any significant differences between groups when comparing progesterone or norethisterone to placebo for seizure outcomes. The four included studies involved a total of 192 women aged between 13 and 45 years experiencing catamenial epilepsy. We did not find any studies testing non-hormonal treatments or any studies in women with irregular periods. In all of these studies, the treatment was compared to a placebo (a harmless sugar pill). We included four randomised controlled trials (studies in which participants are randomly assigned to one of two or more treatment groups) of hormonal treatments in the review, two trials evaluating progesterone and two evaluating norethisterone. We also examined the reasons why women dropped out of the studies and any reported side effects. Our outcomes of interest were: average change in seizures, percentage of women achieving a reduction in seizures by at least 50%, and percentage of women who became seizure-free. ![]() We searched electronic databases to find relevant studies in which treatment was continued for at least 12 weeks. The aim of this review was to examine the effectiveness of hormonal and non-hormonal treatments in stopping seizures in women with catamenial epilepsy. ![]() This review aimed to address these issues in order to inform clinical practice and future research. There are also concerns about the possible impact on fertility, the menstrual cycle, bone health, and cardiovascular health. There is uncertainty regarding which treatment works best and when in the menstrual cycle treatments should be taken. Women may not receive appropriate treatment for their catamenial seizures. medroxyprogesterone (Depo-Provera) or gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GnRH) analogues (triptorelin and goserelin)) are treatment options.Ĭatamenial epilepsy is common in women with epilepsy, and may have a significant negative impact on quality of life. In women who do not have regular periods, and who therefore cannot predict their period days, stopping periods using synthetic hormones (e.g. clobazam or acetazolamide) taken prior to and during a period may be used. progesterone supplements) and non-hormonal treatments (e.g. If a woman has regular periods, hormonal (e.g. The link between high levels of oestrogen and risk of seizures remains unclear.Ĭurrent treatment of catamenial epilepsy depends on whether a woman has regular or irregular menstrual periods. Studies in animals have demonstrated that lower progesterone may affect how the brain reacts to the brain chemical gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA), which is important in preventing seizures. The reason for this increased risk may relate to changes in the levels of progesterone (a hormone released by the ovaries) around the time of a menstrual period and oestrogen (a female sex hormone) surge around ovulation. There are specific times within the menstrual cycle when women are most at risk: in the days leading up to a menstrual period and during a menstrual period (perimenstrual or catamenial type 1 pattern) at the time of ovulation (catamenial type 2 pattern) and in the second half of their cycle (luteal phase, or catamenial type 3 pattern). Catamenial (menstrual) epilepsy describes a worsening of seizures in relation to the menstrual cycle and may affect around 40% of women with epilepsy. ![]() |
