This paper is witness to the prolific scientific production that Emilio Illarregui developed during his academic life. Sadly, this Spanish-German cooperation seeking to define more clearly the ancient city of Termes through new technologies (i.e. geophysical survey) was also his last field work. Therefore, we present the resultsof this work on the urban structures and architectural elements of thi

Cognitive factive verbs across languages

In the last few years, the traditional analysis of know as a factive verb has been lively debated by linguists and philosophers of language: several scholars have pointed out that know may be used non-factively in ordinary language. The aim of the present study is to expand this inquiry to other cognitive factive verbs than know, such as discover, realize, etc., and to investigate cross-linguistic

These rights are a prerequisite for individuals to have incentives to invest in their properties, be able to trade with each other, economic growth and more. In some situations, private land ownership may have to be put aside for society to function adequately; since society needs to build housing, infrastructure and o

Disclosure of Pharmaceutical Industry Funding of Patient Organisations in Nordic Countries: Can Industry Self-Regulation Deliver on its Transparency Promise?

Pharmaceutical companies regularly fund patient organisations. It is important for patient organisations’ credibility that there should be transparency regarding this financial support. In Europe, the pharmaceutical industry promises to deliver transparency through self-regulation, as opposed to legally binding provisions, but self-regulation’s effectiveness is contested. We compared the industry’

Percutaneous transAXillary access for endovascular aortic procedures in the multicenter international PAXA registry

Background: The aim of the study was to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of a suture-mediated vascular closure device to perform hemostasis after an axillary artery access during endovascular procedures on the aortic valve, the aorta and its side branches. Methods: A physician-initiated, international, multicenter, retrospective registry was designed to evaluate the success rate (VARC-2 re

A common model for the breathlessness experience across cardiorespiratory disease

Chronic breathlessness occurs across many different conditions, often independently of disease severity. Yet, despite being strongly linked to adverse outcomes, the consideration of chronic breathlessness as a stand-alone therapeutic target remains limited. Here we use data-driven techniques to identify and confirm the stability of underlying features (factors) driving breathlessness across differ

Breathlessness dimensions association with physical and mental quality of life : the population based VASCOL study of elderly men

BACKGROUND: Breathlessness is a multidimensional symptom prevalent in elderly affecting many aspects of life. We aimed to determine how different dimensions of breathlessness are associated with physical and mental quality of life (QoL) in elderly men.METHODS: This was a cross-sectional, population-based analysis of 672 men aged 73 years in a Swedish county. Breathlessness was assessed using Dyspn

Significance of the contractual relationship for the efficient railway maintenance project planning

Efficiently planned railway maintenance helps ensure reliable infrastructure and the proper functioning of its components. The Swedish Transport Administration delegates maintenance work to contractors through a tender process. This paper analyses differences in communication and collaboration in the planning and execution of maintenance under two contract types. A document review and interviews w

Gender Fairness in Social Robotics : Exploring a Future Care of Peripartum Depression

In this paper we investigate the possibility of socially assistive robots (SARs) supporting diagnostic screening for peripartum depression (PPD) within the next five years. Through a HRI/socio-legal collaboration, we explore the gender norms within PPD in Sweden, to inform a gender-sensitive approach to designing SARs in such a setting, as well as governance implications. This is achieved through

Underlying conditions contributing to breathlessness in the population

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Assessment of underlying conditions that contribute to breathlessness is fundamental for symptom management. This review aims to summarize the knowledge from the past two years on the most common underlying conditions among individuals with breathlessness in the general population and to identify research gaps. RECENT FINDINGS: Nine studies from the last two years were included
