Abstract in ItalianDerrida individua un discorso basato sulla ragione e un altro sulla rivelazione. Kant rifiuta quest’ultimo, in quanto contiene un ‘tono’ che implica soggettività, speculazione e pretese di conoscenza ‘mistiche’. Si può anche sostenere che l’accettazione della conoscenza rivelata o intuitiva legittimi le teorie cospirative, con gravi conseguenze politiche. Tuttavia, un discorso uDerrida identifies a discourse based on reason and another on revelation. Kant rejects the latter, as it contains a tone that entails subjectivity, speculation and claims to knowledge by mystical means. It may also be argued that acceptance of revealed or intuitive knowledge legitimises conspiracy theories, with grave political consequences. Yet a pure and plain discourse is conceptually impossibl

Industry 4.0 concepts have recently significantly supported transparency and reliability in every industrial sector. Organizations must adapt their traditional paradigms and approaches to align with market demands. Hence, developing a framework that can change these conventional approaches with fresh ideas is essential. The Industry 4.0 (I4.0) readiness model presents a creative concept that holds

Animal vocalizations are extremely diverse, and evolutionary approaches to understanding this diversity assume some mapping between their acoustic form and communicative function, with specific features serving universal roles. Here, we investigate whether irregular vocal production with nonlinear phenomena contrib-utes to the alarming quality of vertebrate calls. We resynthesized 98 calls of bird

OBJECTIVES: Pulmonary valve implantation (PVI) is common in children with congenital heart disease particularly as they get older. While surgical PVI (SPVI) was the mainstay of treatment for years, percutaneous PVI (PPVI) has evolved into a popular treatment option. The aim of our study was to evaluate the rate of prosthetic pulmonary valve infectious endocarditis (PPVIE) between these two modes o

OBJECTIVE: Traditional rejection surveillance after heart transplantation (HTx) is based on endomyocardial biopsies (EMB), which are invasive, expensive and associated with complications. Monitoring using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is promising, but most studies report only on the donor fraction (DF) as the percentage of donor derived-cfDNA (dd-cfDNA) relative to total-cfDNA. We evaluated the performan

Introduction: Contrary to popular belief, there is limited research on sugar intake as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. While the links between sugar-sweetened beverage intake and cardiovascular disease risk are well-established, little is known about the associations for overall added or free sugar intake and other dietary sources of added sugar. Objective markers of habitual sugar intak

The paper presents novel studies on the electrical-to-thermal energy deposition to gas at different phases of a spark. The experiments utilized a 10.9 milliliter custom-built spark calorimeter. The energy transfer efficiencies across spark phases—breakdown+arc, and glow are quantified, emphasizing their importance in ensuring robust ignition. An AC capacitive ignition system was considered in the

Novel readers inside the narrated world are, Monika Class argues, a foundational trope in the diachronic development of the realist novel in English. Jane Austen’s Northanger Abbey can be seen as a game-changer for the intradiegetic novel reader, since Austen achieved a composition that ambivalently elevates the genre both on the level of the story, in which the two novel readers, Catherine Morlan

The People’s Park in Lund was one of Sweden’s first public places owned by the labour movement. Today the park has become a municipal re creational facility and cultural centre, and the pivotal role of labour in its creation has all but completely faded. Yet despite this amnesia, urban development plans for the park have been overturned many times with references to the place’s past, which has mad

Oat beta-glucans (OBGs) lower postprandial blood glucose by increasing gastrointestinal viscosity, delaying gastric emptying, and slowing glucose absorption. While the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recommends a minimum intake of 4 g of OBGs per 30 g of available carbohydrates (avCHO) for a significant reduction in glycaemic response, this poses formulation challenges. This study investigat

INTRODUCTION: Although advanced surgical techniques are available, satisfactory functional outcomes after peripheral nerve injuries are uncommon. Hence, immune-modulating factors such as PXL01, a lactoferrin-derived peptide that improves axonal outgrowth in injured human digital nerves, have gained attention. We previously reported a short-term immunosuppressive effect of PXL01 after the repair of

Introduction: A rule exists regarding the use of computed tomography (CT) for patients presenting to the emergency department with head trauma and a Glasgow coma score (GCS) of 15; however, it can be difficult to make this decision due to overcrowded emergency rooms or exaggerated patients complaints. We evaluated patients who presented to the emergency room with minor head trauma, and we aimed to

Spinal infection is rare. Clinical suspicion is important in patients with nonmechanical neck and/or back pain to make the proper diagnosis in early disease. Before planning surgery, a thorough evaluation of the spinal stability, alignment, and deformity is necessary. Timing of surgery, side of approach, appropriate surgical technique, and spinal instruments used are crucial. Biomechanical preserv
