This open-access book surveys how digital technology can contribute effectively to improving our understanding of the past, through a sensory engagement based on the evidence of material culture. In particular, it encourages specialists to consider senses and human agency as important factors in studying ancient space, while recognising the role played by digital tools in enhancing a human-centred

The book contains a summary presentation of the Swedish legal system, written by leading Swedish experts in their respective legal fields.

Advanced maternal age at birth is considered a risk factor for adverse birth outcomes. A recent study applying a sibling design has shown, however, that the association might be confounded by unobserved maternal characteristics. Methods: Using total population register data on all live singleton births during the period 1999-2012 in Denmark (N = 580-133; 90% population coverage), Norway (N = 540-8

Objective: Peritraumatic dissociation (PD) and coping strategies (CS) around the time of trauma are significantpredictors of acute and long-term posttraumatic symptomatology (PTS), but it is unclear howthey relate to each other. The aim of this study was to examine their association using a nationwide, representativesample following the September 11 attacks in the United States (N = 3,134). Method

This paper shows how a channel sounder can be built with National Instruments (NI) Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) equipment, featuring onboard FPGA processing and utilizing open-source tools. Compared to other USPR-based channel sounders, our design eases the requirements on the data link between the USRP and the host, limits the measurement data size, and increases the signal-to-noise

For example, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recently convened the Cities & Climate Change Conference (CitiesIPCC) in Edmonton, Alberta. The conference — hosted by a city that once advertised itself as Canada’s oil capital — brought tog

BACKGROUND: Transmission of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can occur through inhalation of fine droplets or aerosols containing infectious virus. The objective of this study was to identify situations, patient characteristics, environmental parameters, and aerosol-generating procedures (AGPs) associated with airborne severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus.METHODS:

Loss of appetite and negative energy balance are common features of endotoxemia in all animals and are thought to have protective roles by reducing nutrient availability to host and pathogen metabolism. Accordingly, fasting and caloric restriction have well-established anti-inflammatory properties. However, in response to reduced nutrient availability at the cellular and organ levels, negative ene
