The relation of law and art is conventionally understood through a disciplinary divide that presents art as an instrument of legal practice and scholarship or, alternatively, presents law as potential context for artistic engagement. Moving beyond disciplinary definitions, in this article we explore how art and law, as modes of ordering and action in the world, often overlap in their respective de

Objective: The clinical significance of QT interval adaptation to heart rate changes has been poorly investigated in atrial fibrillation (AF), since QT delineation in the presence of f-waves is challenging. Therefore, the objective of the present study is to investigate new techniques for QT adaptation estimation in permanent AF. Methods: A multilead strategy based on generalized periodic componen

Some pesticides, used in large quantities in current European agricultural practices, are suspected of having harmful effects on human health (cancers, metabolic diseases, neurodegenerative diseases). While occupational exposure is now well documented, data on the exposure of the general population to these molecules, mainly through dietary route are lacking. The aim of this work was to identify d

The phenomenon that contemplating future events elicits stronger emotions than contemplating past events has been coined “temporal value asymmetry” (TVA) (Caruso et al., 2008). We conducted very close replications of three experiments derived from two influential TVA papers: Studies 1 and 4 in Caruso et al. (2008), demonstrating TVA in monetary valuation, and Study 1 in Caruso (2010), demonstratin

Characterizing the diversity and structure of host-parasite communities is crucial to understanding their eco-evolutionary dynamics. Malaria and related haemosporidian parasites are responsible for fitness loss and mortality in bird species worldwide. However, despite exhibiting the greatest ornithological biodiversity, avian haemosporidians from Neotropical regions are quite unexplored. Here, we

Flerovium (Fl, element 114) is the heaviest element chemically studied so far. To date, its interaction with gold was investigated in two gas-solid chromatography experiments, which reported two different types of interaction, however, each based on the level of a few registered atoms only. Whereas noble-gas-like properties were suggested from the first experiment, the second one pointed at a vola

C4b-binding protein (C4BP) is a multimeric glycoprotein in plasma with important regulatory functions in the complement system. It occurs in two forms, as free protein and in a non-covalent bimolecular complex with the vitamin K-dependent protein S. Protein S is an important anticoagulant and enhances the rate of inactivation by activated protein C of blood coagulation factors, Va and VIIIa. Prote

In this article, we investigate socio-ecological conflicts surrounding the proposed Second International Airport project near Nijgadh, a town in the southern Terai region of Nepal. Praised by the Nepali government as a gamechanger for Nepal's economy, it has come under scrutiny by environmental activists after plans emerged for extensive clearing of the densely forested project site. While public

Consumer awareness regarding food production and food content is steadily growing. An alternative to the current model of global food chains is local production of food and local sales of food at farmers’ markets. This chapter assesses the social and economic benefits of farmers’ markets both for the farmers taking part in the markets and for the consumers purchasing the products on sale. The deve
