The Italian Constitutional Court's Judgment 238 of 2014 is not another Kadi case

This article provides a critical view of Judgment No. 238 of 2014 handed down by the Italian Constitutional Court. By and large the comments presented below pertain to the single issue of the relationship between different legal orders - between the legal orders of two states, or between the legal order of one state and the legal order of international law. The following comments are based on a po

Resisting panic : Lessons about the role of human rights during the long decade after 9/11

What the world has seen since the atrocious terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001, and the counter-terrorism measures states have taken by way of their response, can be characterised as the worst-ever backlash against the promotion and protection of human rights since their post-Second World War emergence in the UN Charter (1945) and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR, 1948). In this

Multi-step evaluation framework for analyzing mineral dust transport and meteorological impacts over northern India

Dust burden during the dust storms events imparts an adverse effect on human health and environment. The aim of this research is to provide a deeper understanding about the atmospheric dynamics of long-range transport of mineral dust for 8 severe dust storm events over the Indian region during the period 2008–2022. Transport of mineral dust analyzed based on MERRA-2 Dust column mass density, follo

Understanding the dynamics of 2024 extreme heat event in India: Spatial variability, hydrometeorological impacts, and model evaluation

Heatwaves are becoming more intense, frequent, and prolonged due to global warming, posing significant risks to ecosystems and human societies. Despite their profound impact, detailed regional assessments of extreme heat events remain limited, particularly in India. This study addresses the gap by systematically investigating the 2024 extreme heat event in India. We evaluated the performance of va

Associations between cerebral small vessel disease and reduced forced vital capacity and expiratory volume in a general healthy Swedish elder population study-Good Aging in Skåne

BackgroundCerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is one of the most important causes of cognitive decline. Only a few previous studies have evaluated lung function measures in relation to brain neuropathological changes, and even less studies on specific lesions and areas that could shed light on mechanisms of CSVD.ObjectiveThe aim was to study the association between lung function and CSVD in the g

Welcome No More? Shifting Attitudes towards Ukrainian Refugees in Europe

Almost seven million Ukrainians have fled Ukraine since Russia’s large-scale invasion in February 2022. Seeking refuge in other European states, they were welcomed. However, recent analyses have emerged which point to an increasing discrimination against Ukrainian refugees who were displaced by Russia’s aggression, including in previously supportive nations like Poland. The shifting treatment and

Sex-and depot-specific differences in cellular insulin responsiveness during adipose expansion

AimsAdipose tissue distribution, metabolism, and expansion capacity exhibit notable sex- and depot-specific differences. Herein, we monitored adipocyte traits related to insulin responsiveness and glucose transport during adipose expansion in visceral and subcutaneous fat from male and female mice.Material and methodsAdipocytes were isolated from perigonadal and inguinal adipose tissue of chow-fed

Focal Adhesion Kinase Orchestrates GLUT4 Translocation and Glucose Uptake via Cytoskeletal Turnover in Primary Adipocytes

ABSTRACT Intact insulin signaling and glucose transport in adipocytes are crucial to maintaining whole-body energy metabolism. Focal adhesion kinase stands as a central intracellular protein facilitating signaling between the extracellular matrix and the cytoplasm, thereby regulating cellular metabolism. Here, we have investigated the role of focal adhesion kinase in adipocyte glucose transport us

Combining DNA metabarcoding with macroscopic analysis increases the number of detected prey taxa in the estimated diet for harbour porpoises

Knowledge of animal diets is fundamental in ecology as it can provide insight into the structure, function and resilience of entire ecosystems. In this study we investigate the diet composition of the harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena), a small marine top predator with great ecological importance, to provide updated dietary estimates for the species in Swedish waters. This is done by parallel us

Sensorimotor functions, visuospatial perception and visuospatial abilities in adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism spectrum disorder

Objective:The aim of this study was to investigate sensorimotor functions that require cerebellar processing, and visuospatial perception and visuospatial abilities in adult patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD).Method:We included patients with unmedicated ADHD (n = 52), medicated ADHD (n = 39), ASD (n = 33), the combination of unmedicated

On the influence of carbides in laser-cladded coating on friction, wear, and airborne particle emissions of disc brakes

Recently, it has become a focus to reduce non-exhaust aerosol emissions from the transport sector. One possible way to decrease brake particle emissions is by laser-cladding coatings onto brake discs. This work tested five different laser-cladding coated brake discs against a non-asbestos organic brake pad. The performance of these coatings was compared to a commercial grey cast iron brake disc te
