This guide will give you an introduction to the history of the Cuneiform Digital Library Initiative (CDLI) and a basic overview of the CDLI research platform and data collections. It will enable you to conduct simple and advanced searches of the hundreds of thousands of artifacts in the database, filter and download your search results, register a user account with CDLI in order to edit and contri

Background: The existence of a “minority tax,” defined as the burden of extra responsibilities placed on minorities relative to non-minorities of the same position, has been documented across various fields, including and beyond medicine. This study sought to quantify the types and extent of the minority tax faced by minority orthopaedic surgeons, as well as evaluate the degree to which this work

Industrial and urban symbiosis (IUS) is an emerging sustainability strategy in which organizations collaborate to optimize resource flows and minimize waste within urban environments. Rooted in circular economy principles, IUS has gained global attention as cities seek innovative solutions to enhance resource efficiency and resilience. However, local authorities play a critical yet underexplored r

Alla de stora ideologierna har sina ytterligheter. Socialismen har kommunism, konservatismen fascism och liberalismen libertarianism, även benämnd anarkokapitalism, som följeslagare. För den som finner det mödan värt att avsätta ett par timmar åt sistnämnda ”ism” kan Brian Dohertys lilla bok Modern Libertarianism: A Brief History of Classical Liberalism in the United States (Cato Institute 2024) v

Nuclear fission leads to the splitting of a nucleus into two fragments1,2. Studying the distribution of the masses and charges of the fragments is essential for establishing the fission mechanisms and refining the theoretical models3,4. It has value for our understanding of r-process nucleosynthesis5,6, in which the fission of nuclei with extreme neutron-to-proton ratios is pivotal for determining

Over the last 25 to 30 years, union density has experienced a significant decline in Denmark, Finland, and Sweden, while remaining relatively stable in Norway and completely unchanged in Iceland. In the first three countries, the weakening of Ghent systems (state-subsidised union unemployment funds) stands out as the primary factor contributing to union decline. In Sweden, this trend is further ex

BACKGROUND: The impact of the sustainable EAT-Lancet planetary health diet on brain and cognitive health remains unclear. This study compared the impact of the EAT-Lancet diet with the well-established cognitive-beneficial Mediterranean diet (MeDi) in relation to neuroimaging biomarkers and cognitive performance among older adults.METHODS: The study included 615 dementia-free 70-year-olds from the

Code review is a well-established and valuable software development practice associated with code quality, interpersonal, and team benefits. However, it is also time-consuming, with developers spending 10–20% of their working time doing code reviews. With recent advances in AI capabilities, there are more and more initiatives aimed at fully automating code reviews to save time and streamline softw

Collagen VII is an essential anchoring protein in the basement membrane zone, maintaining the attachment of stratified and pseudostratified epithelia to the underlying interstitial matrix. However, collagen VII is largely unexplored in normal lungs and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a disease characterized by excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) and aberrant re-epithelializat

MOTIVATION: Missing data present a pervasive challenge in data analysis, potentially biasing outcomes and undermining conclusions if not addressed properly. Missing data are commonly classified into Missing Completely at Random (MCAR), Missing at Random (MAR), and Missing Not at Random (MNAR). While MCAR poses a minimal risk of data distortion, both MAR and MNAR can seriously affect the results of

Structural biology offers a window into the functionality of molecular machines in health and disease. A fundamental challenge lies in capturing both the high-resolution structural details and dynamic changes that are essential for function. The high-resolution methods of X-ray crystallography and electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM) are mainly used to study ensembles of static conformations but can

Background: The Swedish health care system is undergoing a transformation. eHealth technologies are increasingly being used. The System Usability Scale is a widely used tool, offering a standardized and reliable measure for assessing the usability of digital health solutions. However, despite the existence of several translations of the System Usability Scale into Swedish, none have undergone psyc

Beyond interactions with parents, young children’s development is influenced by attachment-related interactions with close caregivers in different contexts, such as with teachers at professional childcare centres (“preschool”). The child’s transition from the home environment to being cared for at preschool for the very first time is essential in this respect, providing a natural “window of opport
