The commercial availability of low-cost millimeterwave (mmWave) communication and radar devices is starting to improve the adoption of such technologies in consumer markets, paving the way for large-scale and dense deployments in fifthgeneration (5G)-and-beyond as well as 6G networks. At the same time, pervasive mmWave access will enable device localization and device-free sensing with unprecedent

Identifying where and when population ‘bottlenecks’ occur is critical to the conservation of migratory species, many of which are declining precipitously worldwide. Especially challenging is the evaluation of changes to staging sites. These sites are indispensable links in the migratory cycle but are typically used only briefly. We devised a field-based approach to assess the quality and carrying

Wood formation determines major long-term carbon (C) accumulation in trees and therefore provides a crucial ecosystem service in mitigating climate change. Nevertheless, we lack understanding of how species with contrasting wood anatomical types differ with respect to phenology and environmental controls on wood formation. In this study, we investigated the seasonality and rates of radial growth a

Abstract in ItalianQuesta esposizione propone in maniera teoretica una critica dell’esagerazione come approccio utile a qualsiasi filosofia che si occupi dei cosiddetti temi esistenziali. Si segue l’esempio dell’esagerazione per proporre un pensare oltre l’essere, in contrasto con la questione dell’essere senza esagerazione. Infine, si propone la critica propria dell’esagerazione come atteggiamentThis theoretical exposition proposes the critique of exaggeration as the approach to any philosophy that deals with the so-called existential themes. It provides the example of exaggeration in thinking beyond being in contrast to the question of being without exaggeration. Finally, it proposes the critique of exaggeration as a philosophical attitude that resists the temptation to seriously engage

This article investigates reference notes to Luther’s works in Swedish books produced from 1570–1630 and uses this case study to explore the presence and function of reference notes to Luther’s works in Lutheran print during the age of confessionalisation. Building on scholarly work on representations of Luther within Lutheran Culture, early modern reading and printed marginalia, it explores refer

Aims/Introduction: The incretin hormone glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is secreted after meal ingestion. This study explored the relative influence of classes of macronutrients on GIP secretion. Materials and Methods: The human literature was revisited by identifying articles from PubMed using key words GIP, macronutrients, carbohydrates, fat, protein, healthy subjects. In mode

One excuse for not making use of the visual sources is the difficulty in interpreting them. Before the historian can even try to make valid use of an image, he has to know what he is looking for, when and for what purpose it was made, in what circumstances, current visual conventions, technical and other constraints.1 Thus, extracting information from visual sources and combining it with literary

The negation width of a Boolean AND, OR, NOT circuit computing a monotone Boolean function f is the minimum number w such that the unique formal DNF produced (purely syntactically) by the circuit contains each prime implicant of f extended by at most w solely negated variables. The negation width of monotone circuits is zero. We first show that already a moderate allowed negation width can substan

The tissue distribution and prognostic relevance of subtype-specific proteins (ASCL1, NEUROD1, POU2F3, YAP1) present an evolving area of research in small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). The expression of subtype-specific transcription factors and P53 and RB1 proteins were measured by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in 386 surgically resected SCLC samples. Correlations between subtype-specific proteins and in

Objective: To examine potential genetic relationships between migraine and the two distinct phenotypes posterior circulation ischemic stroke (PCiS) and anterior circulation ischemic stroke (ACiS), we generated migraine polygenic risk scores (PRSs) and compared these between PCiS and ACiS, and separately vs. non-stroke control subjects. Methods: Acute ischemic stroke cases were classified as PCiS o

The electrostatic interactions between cationic poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers of different generations, G3, G4, and G6, with net anionic model biomembranes have been predicted by adopting an analytical model based on two dissimilar soft spheres. The influence of bilayer surface charge density, ionic strength, pH, temperature, membrane softness (modeled as changes in bilayer thickness), and d

Bicycling is an important form of active transport that contributes to sustainability mobility as a result of its role in personal and public health and emissions reduction. The significance of which has grown since the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. However, biking studies have neglected, in theoretical terms, developing an understanding of why consumers bike. Therefore, this research designs and ve

The paper aims to address how ethics plays an important role in understanding the entrepreneur as an experiencing agent throughout the entrepreneurial process. Drawing from normative ethics, we conceptualize an opportunity process model that posits the entrepreneur as a moral agent who acts in an ethical manner from the intention to identify an opportunity, through the entrepreneurial actions take

This chapter shows that war-making and peace-making “take place” and that sometimes the legacy of conflict obscures manifestations of peacebuilding. The analysis of a “bridge that divides” in the city of Mitrovica in northern Kosovo and a “wall that unites” in Belfast, Northern Ireland, casts light on the benefits that a spatial reading of peace can provide to understand the ways in which spatial

The AI landscape demands a broad set of legal, ethical, and societal considerations to be accounted for in order to develop ethical AI (eAI) solutions which sustain human values and rights. Currently, a variety of guidelines and a handful of niche tools exist to account for and tackle individual challenges. However, it is also well established that many organizations face practical challenges in n

Explicit embedding methods combined with the complex polarization propagator (CPP) enable the modeling of spectroscopy for increasingly complex systems with a high density of states. We present the first derivation and implementation of the CPP in four- and exact-two-component (X2C) polarizable embedding (PE) frameworks. We denote the developed methods PE-4c-CPP and PE-X2C-CPP, respectively. We il

Background: Sexual harassment (SH) has been highlighted as an important determinant for mental health. The aims of this study were to describe SH in terms of cumulative 1-year incidence, exposed groups, types of perpetrators and settings, and to measure the association between SH and poor mental well-being. Methods: Data from two waves of the Scania Public Health Cohort Study, comprising 7759 rand
