International trade

Selling exports below cost or home price

In international trade, dumping is selling a good in a foreign market at a price below its normal value (below the price charged at home, or below cost), which importing countries may answer with anti-dumping duties. Ethier's 1982 Dumping gave a formal account of why a firm might rationally dump, tying it to demand uncertainty and the pull to keep capacity employed. The referent is a cross-border pricing practice judged against a 'normal value' benchmark, unrelated to a post-surgical syndrome or the illegal disposal of waste beyond the shared image of unloading something cheaply.[1]

Unit
The margin by which an export price falls below the good's normal value
Recovery means
Not applicable
Measured by
Quantified by the dumping margin (export price compared with home-market price or constructed cost) in anti-dumping investigations

Gastroenterology

Stomach contents empty too fast after surgery

In gastroenterology, dumping syndrome is a cluster of symptoms that follows gastric surgery when stomach contents, especially sugars, pass too rapidly into the small intestine, provoking early fluid shifts and bloating and later reactive hypoglycaemia. Tack and colleagues' 2009 Pathophysiology, diagnosis and management of postoperative dumping syndrome sets out the mechanism and its management. The referent is a physiological disorder of gastric emptying in a patient's body, a different construct from below-cost exporting or waste disposal, joined only by the word's meaning of a load unloaded too fast.[2]

Unit
The rate of gastric emptying and the symptom response to a carbohydrate load
Recovery means
Symptoms often ease with dietary change and time; the label marks a post-surgical state, not a permanent one
Measured by
Diagnosed by symptom scores, the oral glucose provocation test, and gastric-emptying studies
