Aim of this contribution is to demonstrate how digital methods, in combination with traditional sources, can effectively contribute to reconstruct a narrative of the past based on a sensory account of a few coastal landscapes in Northwestern Etruria as they were perceived and described by ancient authors. A few passages by Strabo (Geogr. 5.2.5, 222C, Augustan period) and Rutilius Namatianus (de re

ObjectiveTo evaluate the ACR/EULAR 2022 criteria for ANCA-associated vasculitides (AAV) classification and compare them with the European Medicines Agency (EMA) algorithm and with classification based only on ANCA serology.MethodsIn the analysis, 374 cases (47% female) were classified according to the EMA algorithm, ANCA serology and ACR/EULAR criteria. The agreement rate was calculated using the

Cost-effective strategies for identifying amyloid-β (Aβ) positivity in patients with cognitive impairment are urgently needed with recent approvals of anti-Aβ immunotherapies for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Blood biomarkers can accurately detect AD pathology, but it is unclear whether their incorporation into a full diagnostic workflow can reduce the number of confirmatory cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)

AbstraktSyftet med den här berättelsen handlar om Abskopal regression av subkutant implanterat N29 råttgliom som inträffar efter immunisering med syngena IFN-utsöndrande celler och behandling av kontralaterala tumörer med pulserande elektriska fält (PEF) och/eller strålbehandling (RT). Studien utfördes på råttor av Fischer-344-stammen med råttgliom N29-tumörer implanterade subkutant på flanken el

Denna kandidatuppsats undersöker FN:s utredningsmekanismer som inrättades med avsikten att samla in, analysera, katalogisera och fördela bevismaterial till internationella samt nationella rättsväsenden. Uppsatsens övergripande frågeställning behandlar vad utredningsmekanismerna representerar i relation till den internationella människorättens begränsningar och möjligheter. Ämnesområden som problemThis thesis researches UN investigative mechanisms that are tasked with collecting, analysing, consolidating and distributing evidential material to international and national courts. The thesis researches the question of what the mechanisms represent in relation to the limitations and opportunities within international human rights law. Subject areas that the thesis expands on are accountability,

This article presents a study of court judgments involving women who, in connection with #MeToo, identified alleged perpetrators of sexual violence in social media and were later prosecuted for and convicted of criminal defamation in Sweden. We conceptualise the use of social media to share experiences of sexual violence as an informal path to justice. First, we show that this is supported by how

Context: Whether patients with Cushing disease (CD) in remission have increased mortality is still debatable.Objective: To study overall and disease-specific mortality and predictive factors in an unselected nationwide cohort of patients with CD.Design, patients, and methods: A retrospective study of patients diagnosed with CD, identified in the Swedish National Patient Registry between 1987 and 2

BACKGROUND: Genome-wide studies of gene-environment interactions (G×E) may identify variants associated with disease risk in conjunction with lifestyle/environmental exposures. We conducted a genome-wide G×E analysis of ~ 7.6 million common variants and seven lifestyle/environmental risk factors for breast cancer risk overall and for estrogen receptor positive (ER +) breast cancer.METHODS: Analyse

Background: Two acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) subphenotypes (hyperinflammatory and hypoinflammatory) with distinct clinical and biological features and differential treatment responses have been identified using latent class analysis (LCA) in seven individual cohorts. To facilitate bedside identification of subphenotypes, clinical classifier models using readily available clinical var

Background: There are contradictory research findings regarding whether individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) are more or less likely to commit crimes. The aims of the current study were to: (1) Describe psychiatric and crime-related characteristics of a large group of offenders with ASD who had undergone a Forensic Psychiatric Investigation (FPI). (2) Identify clinical subgroups among

Currently, it is accepted that animal locomotion is controlled by a central pattern generator in the spinal cord. Experiments and models show that rhythm generating neurons and genetically determined network properties could sustain oscillatory output activity suitable for locomotion. However, current central pattern generator models do not explain how a spinal cord circuitry, which has the same b

It is well known that each solution of the modified Korteveg–de Vries (mKdV) equation gives rise, via the Miura transformation, to a solution of the Korteveg–de Vries (KdV) equation. In this work, we show that a similar Miura-type transformation exists also for the “good” Boussinesq equation. This transformation maps solutions of a second-order equation to solutions of the fourth-order Boussinesq

Interferons (IFNs) are secreted cytokines with the ability to activate expression of IFN stimulated genes that increase resistance of cells to virus infections. Activated transcription factors in conjunction with chromatin remodelers induce epigenetic changes that reprogram IFN responses. Unexpectedly, 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase1 (Ogg1) knockout mice show enhanced stimuli-driven IFN expression t

This article presents a search for new resonances decaying into a Z or W boson and a 125 GeV Higgs boson h, and it targets the νν¯ bb¯ , ℓ+ℓ−bb¯ , or ℓ±νbb¯ final states, where ℓ = e or μ, in proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV. The data used correspond to a total integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1 collected by the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the LHC at CERN. The search is conducted by examin
