Inequality in social mobility in Southern Europe. Evidence of Class Ceiling in the area of Barcelona, 16th-19th centuries

Preindustrial social mobility is still primarily understudied in present times, and most early-industrial social mobility research has focused strictly on occupational mobility, not fully capturing the substantial socioeconomic disparities within occupational groups that presumably always existed. In this study, we contribute to the literature by estimating long-term trends in intergenerational so

Correction of magnetization transfer saturation maps optimized for 7T postmortem MRI of the brain

PurposeMagnetization transfer saturation (MTsat) is a useful marker to probe tissue macromolecular content and myelination in the brain. The increased B1+ inhomogeneity at 7T and significantly larger saturation pulse flip angles which are often used for postmortem studies exceed the limits where previous B1+correction methods are applicable. Here, we develop a calibration-based correction model an

What besets entrepreneurs in renewable energy sector? – Insights from the Indian state of Gujarat

Purpose: India has acquired global leadership in renewable energy (RE) deployment because of its commitment to achieve 175 GW of installed capacity by 2022. Entrepreneurship driven by innovation and policy push is essential for energy sector transition. Despite policy focus on the diffusion of RE technology, there are several challenges that plague innovation and RE entrepreneurship development in

Tooth morphology and feeding ecology of early Campanian (Late Cretaceous) marine reptiles through the lens of extant odontocetes

Marine mammals occupy multiple trophic levels within the food webs of modern ecosystems, and secondarily aquatic reptiles played similar roles in the Mesozoic oceans. Odontocetes have conical teeth similar to those of Mesozoic marine reptiles, and thus could potentially be used to interpret the feeding ecology of the latter group. This study uses both discrete and continuous characters to determin

Samlingsförvaltning på svenska museum : en komparativ textanalys av policy- och styrdokument

Collection management is an important part of the museum because they have to take care of their collections in order for them to be presentable for the public and preserved for the future. In Sweden all public museums must follow the museum law, which requires them to work with active collection management. In addition to the museum law, the museum’s also have steering documents from their mandat

AIB1 is a new putative prognostic biomarker in the luminal A and B-like (HER2-negative) classification of invasive lobular carcinoma

Body: Background: Estrogen receptor (ER) positive HER2-negative breast cancer comprises 75–80% of all breast cancer. Thisfraction is even higher (>90%) in invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC). According to the St Gallen surrogate definitions of the intrinsicsubtypes, Ki67 and progesterone receptor (PgR) are used to classify these tumors as luminal A- and luminal B-like(HER2-negative). These guidelines

Platelet Activation and Aggregation Induced by Streptococcus bovis/Streptococcus equinus Complex

Streptococcus bovis/Streptococcus equinus complex (SBSEC) is a common cause of infective endocarditis (IE). For IE-pathogens, the capacity to activate and aggregate platelets is believed to be an important virulence mechanism. While the interactions between bacteria and platelets have been described in detail for many Gram-positive pathogens, little research has been carried out with SBSEC in this

[99mTc(CO)3]+-(HE)3-ZIGF1R:4551, a new Affibody conjugate for visualization of insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor expression in malignant tumours

PURPOSE: Radionuclide imaging of insulin-like growth factor type 1 receptor (IGF-1R) expression in tumours might be used for selection of patients who would benefit from IGF-1R-targeted therapy. We have previously shown the feasibility of IGF-1R imaging using the Affibody molecule (111)In-DOTA-His(6)-Z(IGF1R:4551). The use of (99m)Tc instead of (111)In should improve sensitivity and resolution of

Societal changes and new conditions for the management of large construction projects

The construction industry is often described as mature, conservative and resistant to change in research studies, governmental reports as well as in media. Both scholars and policy makers thereby find it critical to encourage innovation, development, and change within the construction industry. This study takes on a different perspective by investigating changes that have actually taken place. The

The Effect of Sleep on Intrusive Memories in Daily Life: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Trauma Film Experiments

Study objectives: Following traumatic events, people frequently experience distressing, involuntary memories of them (i.e., intrusions). Accumulating evidence suggests that sleep facilitates voluntary memory retrieval by supporting memory consolidation, but it is less clear what effect sleep has on intrusions. Recent research has used distressing film clips as a proxy for traumatizing events and e

Direct activation of a bacterial innate immune system by a viral capsid protein

Bacteria have evolved diverse immunity mechanisms to protect themselves against the constant onslaught of bacteriophages1-3. Similar to how eukaryotic innate immune systems sense foreign invaders through pathogen-associated molecular patterns4 (PAMPs), many bacterial immune systems that respond to bacteriophage infection require phage-specific triggers to be activated. However, the identities of s

Accomplishing Reality Media : The Affective Lure of Online Crime Discussions

Drawing from interviews with posters and an analysis of a dozen discussion threads on the Swedish online discussion forum Flashback, this article sets out to investigate the dramatization of crime news from the point of view of the participants themselves. Analyzing both the online discussions and the articulated motivations and activities of the posters, this article focuses on how participants i
