Emotions have traditionally been considered the enemy of reason in Social Science. However, emotions can both enhance and hinder learning in Social Science. It is therefore important to reflect upon why and how emotions play a role, rather than shutting the emotions out or leaving them unreflected in the teaching. This paper draws on ethnographic data from Social Science teaching in four Swedish u

Aim: Ongoing climate warming has been widely reported to delay autumn phenology, which in turn impacts carbon, water, energy and nutrient balances at regional and global scales. However, the underlying mechanisms of autumn phenology responses to climate change have not been fully elucidated. The aims of this study were to determine whether brightening that was defined as the increase of surface so

There is currently an emerging drive towards computational materials design and fabrication of predicted novel materials. One of the keys to developing appropriate fabrication methods is determination of the composition and phase. Here we explore the FeGe system and establish reference Raman signatures for the distinction between FeGe hexagonal and cubic structures, as well as FeGe2and Fe2Ge3phase

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a highly aggressive pediatric cancer that can affect both B cells and T cells. The advent of new therapies has increased the cure rates for both B-ALL and T-ALL patients. However, some patients still experience relapse with a variable response to the treatment and display poor survival. Thus,identification of novel predictive biomarkers that can predict therap

Background Premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) are generally quantified using a 24h ECG recording, but the diagnostic accuracy is unknown. We aimed to determine the day-to-day variability and optimal monitoring duration for PVC measurements among patients with frequent PVCs. Methods We included all patients who underwent a clinical ambulatory ECG recording lasting 25-30 days, using the PocketEC

I here defend a theory consisting of four claims about ‘property’ and properties, and argue that they form a coherent whole that can solve various serious problems. The claims are: (1) ‘property’ is defined by the principles (PR): ‘F-ness/Being F/etc. is a property of x iff F(x)’ and (PA): ‘F-ness/Being F/etc. is a property’; (2) the function of ‘property’ is to increase the expressive power of En

Aim: Studies have suggested that there is a difference in risk of local recurrence(LR) with circumferential resection margins (CRM) less than 1.0 mm. We aimed toexamine how exact resection margins affect LR risk.Method: Data from the Swedish Colorectal Cancer Registry (SCRCR) were usedfor retrospective analysis of resected rectal cancers between 2005 and 2013. Primaryendpoint was LR.Results: 12146

For two decades, Sébastien Tutenges has conducted research in bars, nightclubs, festivals, drug dens, nightlife resorts, and underground dance parties in a quest to answer a fundamental question: Why do people across cultures gather regularly to intoxicate themselves?Vivid and at times deeply personal, this book offers new insights into a wide variety of intoxicating experiences, from the intimate

This article presents a critical assessment of 40 years of research that may be brought under the umbrella of energy efficiency, spanning different aggregations and domains-from individual producing and consuming agents to economy-wide effects to the role of innovation to the influence of policy. After 40 years of research, energy efficiency initiatives are generally perceived as highly effective.

This work is focused on the study of transition metal model catalysts for gas-phase heterogeneous catalysis, studied with light-based in-situ and operando techniques.Metallic model catalysts, such as Palladium (Pd) and Iridium (Ir) single crystals and in minor part deposited Rhodium (Rh), were studied using a combination of x-ray and non x-ray techniques. The aim was to either acquire structural c

The problem of optimizing PPM with the help of different choices of estimators and their parameters for different subsets of nodes in the context tree is considered. Methods of such optimization for Markov chain and context tree models for individual files and over given sets of files are presented, and it is demonstrated that the extension from Markov chain models to context tree models is necess

Purposeful and well-coordinated movements depend on the control exerted by dopamine (DA) on the basal ganglia (BG) network. Accordingly, dysfunctions or lesions of the dopaminergic system in the BG can result in an overall poverty and slowness of movement, cardinal features of Parkinson´s disease (PD), or in dyskinesias, exaggerated and involuntary movements resulting from L-DOPA pharmacotherapy.T

Identity is often viewed as one of the most important concepts to help understand life in contemporary organizations among organizational scholars. For example, studies of identity among organizational members in roles such as e.g. manager, professional, consultant, and priest have provided valuable insights around managerial and professional work, motivation, change, leadership, control, and gendThis chapter examines if identity is as important as is often claimed, and as a consequence, when and why concerns of identity are triggered in working life, and we do so through a constructionist identity perspective. In the chapter, we argue that many people do not necessarily engage with their identities most of the time and explore why they do in certain kinds of jobs and in particular situati
