Cosmopolitan Memories under Pressure : The Case of Postcommunist Wrocław

This article uses the Polish case of Wrocław (formerly Breslau), a city burdened by memories of war and forced displacement, to show the dynamics between hegemonic memories, dominant memories and countermemories. After the fall of communism, the city changed the previous nationalist-communist narrative of its past by institutionalizing a new official narrative that promotes cosmopolitan memory. Th

Wing pattern diversity in Eunica butterflies (Nymphalidae: Biblidinae) : phylogenetic analysis implies decoupled adaptive trends in dorsal sexual dimorphism and ventral eyespot evolution

Butterfly eyespots are wing patterns reminiscent of vertebrate eyes, formed by concentric rings of contrastingly coloured scales. Eyespots are usually located close to the wing margin and often regarded as the single most conspicuous pattern element of butterfly wing colour displays. Recent efforts to understand the processes involved in the formation of eyespots have been driven mainly by evo-dev

Structuring Concepts of Legal Personhood : On Legal Personhood as a Cluster Property

Legal persons have traditionally been understood as entities with legal rights and/or duties. This traditional concept of legal personhood has been challenged during the last decades: In legal practice through the global development in law where previous legal non-persons such as different non-human natural entities, non-human animals, fetuses and artificial intelligences have been ascribed, or be

Two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy

Two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy (2DES) is a popular technique that can track ultrafast coherent and incoherent processes in real time. Since its development in the late 1990s, 2DES has become a powerful tool for investigating ultrafast dynamics in a range of systems, including nanomaterials and optoelectronic devices. This Primer explains the underlying physical principles of 2DES and how

Multicentre, national, investigator-initiated, randomised, parallel-group, register-based superiority trial to compare extended ECG monitoring versus standard ECG monitoring in elderly patients with ischaemic stroke or transient ischaemic attack and the effect on stroke, death and intracerebral bleeding : the AF SPICE protocol

Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major risk factor for ischaemic stroke and transient ischaemic attack (TIA), and AF detection can be challenged by asymptomatic and paroxysmal presentation. Long-term ECG monitoring after ischaemic stroke or TIA is recommended by all major societies in cardiology and cerebrovascular medicine as a secondary prophylactic measure. However, data on stroke red

Spina bifida global learning collaborative : Educating the next generation of clinicians, researchers, and advocates

PURPOSE: This project aimed to launch an international learning community to guide the development of a spina bifida (SB) curriculum for global health trainees.METHODS: Using a descriptive study design, a convenience sample of SB curricula were identified in 2022-23 by members of the Spina Bifida World Congress Outreach Committee and evaluated during a series of monthly Zoom calls to discuss SB ed

A systematic review of ventilation solutions for hospital wards : Addressing cross-infection and patient safety

Despite various preventive interventions, nosocomial cross-infection remains a significant challenge in healthcare facilities worldwide. Consequently, prolonged hospitalization, elevated healthcare costs, and mortality rates are major concerns. Proper ventilation has been identified as one of the possible interventions for reducing the risk of cross-infection between patients and healthcare worker

On shrinking targets and self-returning points

We consider the set Rio of points returning infinitely many times to a sequence of shrinking targets around themselves. Under additional assumptions we improve Boshernitzan’s pioneering result on the speed of recurrence. In the case of the doubling map as well as for some linear maps on the d-dimensional torus, we even obtain a dichotomy condition for Rio to have measure-zero or one. Moreover, we

Murar & Mysterier

En ny utställningsbyggnad till Kulturen i Lund presenteras med ritningar och bilder. Bakgrunden till gestaltningen kommer ifrån en studie av staden Lund, dess arkitekturtradition och hur dessa kan sammankopplas med begrepp som tid och materialitet. Projektet börjar med en kort redogörelse för Lunds byggnads- och arkitekturhistoria. Det avslutas med allmänna reflektioner om staden karaktär. DärefteA new exhibition hall for Kulturen in Lund is presented with drawings and pictures. The background to the design comes from a study of the city of Lund, its architectural tradition, and how these can connect with concepts such as time and materiality. The project begins with a brief chronology of Lund’s building and architectural history. It concludes with general reflections on the city’s charact

Cost-effectiveness analysis of bimekizumab for the treatment of active psoriatic arthritis in Sweden

Aims: To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of bimekizumab, an inhibitor of IL-17F and IL-17A, against biologic and targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARD) for psoriatic arthritis (PsA) from the Swedish healthcare system perspective. Materials and methods: A Markov model was developed to simulate the clinical pathway of biologic [b] DMARD-naïve or tumor necrosis factor inhibi

Modular 3D printed platform for fluidically connected human brain organoid culture

Brain organoid technology has transformed both basic and applied biomedical research and paved the way for novel insights into developmental processes and disease states of the human brain. While the use of brain organoids has been rapidly growing in the past decade, the accompanying bioengineering and biofabrication solutions have remained scarce. As a result, most brain organoid protocols still

α-Synuclein induces deficiency in clathrin-mediated endocytosis through inhibiting synaptojanin1 expression

Parkinson's disease (PD) is an age-related chronic neurological disorder, mainly characterized by the pathological feature of α-synuclein (α-syn) aggregation, with the exact disease pathogenesis unclear. During the onset and progression of PD, synaptic dysfunction, including dysregulation of axonal transport, impaired exocytosis, and endocytosis are identified as crucial events of PD pathogenesis.

Three new species of the subfamily Nossidiinae (Coleoptera: Ptiliidae) from South Korea

The subfamily Nossidiinae was established in 2019 and is comprised of five genera including one fossil genus. Among them, Nossidium Erichson and Sindosium Johnson share many morphological similarities. To this point, two extant Nossidium-species, N. flachi Ganglbauer and N. pilosellum (Marsham) have been recorded in the Palaearctic realm. In this paper, we describe three new species, Nossidium kor

Rescaling creatinine makes GFR estimation equations generally applicable across populations - Validation results for the Lund-Malmö equation in a French cohort of sub-Saharan ancestry

To make glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimating equations applicable across populations with different creatinine generation by using rescaled serum creatinine (sCr/Q) where sCr represents the individual creatinine level and Q the average creatinine value in healthy persons of the same population. GFR measurements (mGFR, plasma clearance of 51Cr-EDTA) were conducted in 964 adult Black European

Catastrophizing and acceptance are mediators between insomnia and pain intensity—an SQRP study of more than 6,400 patients with non-malignant chronic pain conditions

Background: Sleep problems (insomnia) and chronic pain are associated. Chronic pain and insomnia/insufficient sleep quality share similar symptoms and features. Although they have a bidirectional relationship, more research is needed to understand how they interact via mediators and how moderators influence this relationship. Aims: In this large clinical registry-based cohort study (N = 6,497), we

Vulnerability and affective solidarity : Feminist assemblies in Appalachia under and after the Trump presidency

Following the 2016 elections, several feminist groups emerged in the U.S. in response to the election of President Trump. This manuscript focuses on a feminist assembly located in marginal and conservative Appalachia. Grounded in reflexivity, we employ affective solidarity to better understand feminist organizing in a post-Trump rural Appalachian town. Based on a collaborative ethnography, includi

Radiological features of brain hemorrhage through automated segmentation from computed tomography in stroke and traumatic brain injury

Introduction: Radiological assessment is necessary to diagnose spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and traumatic brain injury intracranial hemorrhage (TBI-bleed). Artificial intelligence (AI) deep learning tools provide a means for decision support. This study evaluates the hemorrhage segmentations produced from three-dimensional deep learning AI model that was developed using non-contrast

An Economics of Deep Transformations

A wide range of literatures have identified the capitalist organisation of societies, and the capitalist growth imperative central to this organisation, as the root cause of the catastrophic climate and biodiversity crises. Highlighting the need to break with this imperative, a growing community of scholars generally viewed as anti- and postcapitalist, there is no consensus on how precisely to con
