Sensing China review

Although many of the chapters focus on individual senses, most of them end up demonstrating that no sense works in isolation and that sensation is always social and quite often emotional as well.

Recursive focus prosody

This paper presents results of a production experiment testing the recursivity of prosodic realization of focus in Tokyo Japanese. Tokyo Japanese wh-questions obligatorily exhibit focus prosody, which starts from a wh-phrase (WH) and continues until the question particle (Q) that binds the wh-phrase (Deguchi and Kitagawa 2002; Ishihara 2002, 2003). The current study examines the case where one WH–

One relevant challenge in the field of sustainable mobility is to plan and operate transport services equitable from a geographical and a social point of view. New forms of mobility can exacerbate pre-existing inequalities in the access to public transport systems by excluding some urban areas such as low-income neighborhoods or outskirts, where residents could benefit most from more supply. The g

Kaliningrad Oblast closer to its ever-distant masters

One of the consequences of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the Western sanctions that followed has been deteriorating economic situation in Kaliningrad Oblast. The Russian semi-exclave on the Baltic, already affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and travel restrictions, has suffered from disrupted supply deliveries, closure of externalmarkets and peaking transportation costs.Despite statements made b

Introduction : Diplomacy Re-imagined

Diplomacy is changing. This chapter introduces diplomatic change in Britain in the period 1995–2015, and outlines the main questions and issues taken up in this book. It focuses specifically on the importance of discourses around public diplomacy, digital diplomacy and soft power as motivators and signifiers of organisational reform. The chapter establishes the background, research questions and c

Technologies of Displacement and Children’s Right to Asylum in Sweden

Through an analysis of 100 asylum decisions and 10 interviews with 20 asylum officers at the Swedish Migration Agency this article reveals two intricate processes through which children’s rights are displaced in the Swedish asylum process; by overlooking children’s individual claims for asylum through a circle of neglect, and negating children’s best interests. The article demonstrates how the bal

Rapid evolution of ecological sexual dimorphism driven by resource competition

Sex differences in ecologically important traits are common in animals and plants, and prompted Darwin to first propose an ecological cause of sexual dimorphism. Despite theoretical plausibility and Darwin's original notion, a role for ecological resource competition in the evolution of sexual dimorphism has never been directly demonstrated and remains controversial. I used experimental evolution

Unaccompanied Children Seeking Asylum in Sweden : Living Conditions from a Child-Centred Perspective

The article presents unaccompanied refugee children’s current situation in Sweden from a child-centred perspective. Interviews were conducted with 26 children. A key finding was that the way individuals perceived their situation was highly dependent on the status of their asylum application. In cases where all instances of the Swedish asylum process had been involved, the children described their

Effects of tamoxifen on normal breast tissue histological composition : Results from a randomised six-arm placebo-controlled trial in healthy women

Tamoxifen prevents recurrence of breast cancer and is suggested for preventive risk-reducing therapy. Tamoxifen reduces mammographic density, a proxy for therapy response, but little is known about its effects in remodelling normal breast tissue. Our study, a substudy within the double-blinded dose-determination trial KARISMA, investigated tamoxifen-specific changes in breast tissue composition an

Enhanced Temperature Stratification with Deflectors Laid within the Horizontal Water Storage Tank

In the passive solar water heater, temperature stratification is a valuable thermodynamic parameter for horizontal water storage tanks. This investigation aims to optimize the deflector and numerically study the effects of various deflector lengths and materials on temperature stratification of a horizontal water storage tank during natural convection. Firstly, comparative thermal performances of

Excitation and contraction of cardiac muscle and coronary arteries of brain-dead pigs

Excitability and contraction of cardiac muscle from brain-dead donors critically influence the success of heart transplantation. Membrane physiology, Ca2+-handling, and force production of cardiac muscle and the contractile properties of coronary arteries were studied in hearts of brain-dead pigs. Cardiac muscle and vascular function after 12 h brain death (decapitation between C2 and C3) were com

Novel oral anticoagulant use in adults with congenital heart disease : a single-center experience report

Background: Adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD) are a group with an increased risk of thromboembolic complications and arrhythmias. Vitamin K antagonists are the most commonly used thromboprophylaxis therapy in this population. Studies on the efficacy and safety of novel oral anticoagulants (NOAC) are scare in ACHD. A retrospective study on ACHD patients on NOAC treatment registered in the

MRI of nigrosome-1 : A potential triage tool for patients with suspected parkinsonism

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) of nigrosome-1 is an emerging and clinically applicable imaging marker for parkinsonism, which can be derived from routinely performed brain MRI. The purpose of the study was to assess whether SWI can be used as a triage tool for more efficient selection of subsequent Dopamine Transporter Scan (DaTSCAN) single-photon emission computed t

Re-evaluation of the impact of BUD21 deletion on xylose utilization by Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Various rational metabolic engineering and random approaches have been applied to introduce and improve xylose utilization and ethanol productivity by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Among them, the BUD21 gene was identified as an interesting candidate for enhancing xylose consumption as its deletion appeared to be sufficient to improve growth, substrate utilization and ethanol productivity on xylose, e

A review of machine learning and satellite imagery for poverty prediction: Implications for development research and applications

The field of artificial intelligence is seeing the increased application of satellite imagery to analyse poverty in its various manifestations. This nascent but rapidly growing intersection of scholarship holds the potential to help us better understand poverty by leveraging big data and recent advances in machine vision. In this study, we statistically analyse the literature in the expanding fiel
