The article aims at answering the question of the title by applying a genealogical perspective.

A group of oncologists and hospital physicists have estimated the number of patients in Sweden suitable for proton beam therapy. The estimations have been based on current statistics of tumour incidence, number of patients potentially eligible for radiation treatment, scientific support from clinical trials and model dose planning studies and knowledge of the doseresponse relations of different tu

A single intradermal injection of the mineral oil pristane in susceptible DA.1F rats induces erosive arthritis closely mimicking rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Pristane-induced arthritis (PIA) is driven by autoreactive T cells but no autoantigen has been identified to date. We therefore analyzed B and T cell responses to autoantigens potentially involved in the pathogenesis of RA, including IgG, citru

We present C 1s x-ray absorption, x-ray emission, and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra of single-phase crystalline K3C60. The comparison to valence-band photoelectron spectra from the same sample facilitates identification of the contribution from surface and bulk electronic states in the latter. Bulk-sensitive techniques show that the valence bands of K3C60 and pure C60 are char

Objective: This study was performed to investigate the influence of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and substance P (SP) on the intra-urethral pressure in female rats, as both these neuropeptides have been demonstrated to occur in nerve fibres throughout all layers of the intrinsic external urethral sphincter of the rat. Material and Methods: Both CGRP and SP were administered intra-arteria

In this work, a numerical study has been performed to simulate the unsteady fluid flow and heat transfer in a transonic high-pressure turbine stage. The main objective of this study is to understand the unsteady flow field and heat transfer in a single transonic turbine stage using an unsteady structured Navier-Stokes solver. For the time accurate computation, a fully implicit time discretization,

This theme is concerned with the relevance and efficacy of educational methods adopted in dental schools while recognizing the influence of geopolitical issues in different countries and regions. Particular emphasis will be given to examples of best practices and innovations. Cognition and learning are dealt with in many different research areas such as education, psychology, cognitive sciences, b

The paper treats jitter estimation for alignment of a set of signals which contains several unknown classes of waveforms. The motivating application is epileptic EEG spikes. where alignment prior to clustering and averaging is desired. The assumption that the signal waveforms are unknown precludes the use of classical techniques, notably matched filtering. Instead we treat two other classes of met

The interregional traveller’s preferences of railway stations, their service provision and location, are of interest in the discussion of station reinvention brought on by the introduction of high speed train traffic. A railway station is created by station as well as societal agents, and can be described as a synthesis of symbolic value, location, traffic, services and stationscape. Traveller pr

In spite of the importance of legumes in Latin American diets, nutritional features of carbohydrates in these seeds are scarcely known. The purpose of this study was to assess the in vitro digestibility of starch in cooked powdered black beans, a common type of product in Mexico and Central America. The properties of a commercial product were compared to those of an experimental material obtained

Romans 2 has long been a crux interpretum. Among matters of dispute is the function and identity of Paul’s interlocutor(s) in the chapter. While scholars agree that the individual addressed in 2:17–29 is a Jew, there is no such consensus with respect to the identity of the person addressed in 2:1–5. On the one hand, the scholarly majority holds that this person is depicted as a Jew and that the sa
