Since Jean-Paul Sartre’s conception of le regard des autres in 1943, ‘the gaze’ has taken on many manifestations. The male gaze, the white gaze, the imperial gaze, the postcolonial gaze. All imply a power to objectify, to define an Other, usually from a distance or even, as Donna Haraway described objectivity, from 'nowhere.' Museums have always held the power to define Others while claiming objec
Although commercial aviation is a highly standardized and ultra-safe industry, there are still times when the flight crew are faced with an unexpected situation, and must respond appropriately. This article studies how to characterize variability in flight crew strategies handling unexpected events, problematic as well as successful. Hollnagel’s Extended Control Model (ECOM) is operationalized as
The hardware accelerated ray-tracing pipeline presents many opportunities to implement more advanced rendering algorithms than earlier rasterization based approaches. However, one particular aspect of the pipeline still remains a bit too costly to use in practice: The AnyHit-shader. Opacity Micromaps were introduced to alleviate this issue, but the central problem of calling arbitrary shader code
BACKGROUND: Sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC) is a scoring system developed for early detection of coagulopathy in sepsis and selection of patients for interventional studies. Our aim was to define the prevalence of SIC in a critically ill population and investigate if SIC at intensive care unit (ICU) admission is associated with morbidity and mortality.METHODS: Patients admitted with septic shock
PURPOSE: Early administration of beta-lactam antibiotics is a crucial part in the treatment of sepsis and septic shock. Beta-lactams demonstrate time-dependent killing and therefore it is important to optimize the time above the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC). An extra dose is recommended in threatening/suspected/confirmed septic shock. This study aimed to examine whether patients with sus
OBJECTIVES: This study aims to compare the performance on motor and cognitive functions of adult patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) with or without psychostimulant medication, and controls. A secondary objective is to investigate differences on test performance across varying levels of disorder severity.METHODS: We included patients with unmedicated ADHD (n=52), patients
The Open and Reproducible Musculoskeletal Imaging Research community is a scientific community dedicated to promoting openness and reproducibility in musculoskeletal imaging, image processing, and computational modeling. In this perspective paper, we outline the motivations for conducting transparent research and provide practical guidelines for implementing it. We start by defining open and repro
Background: The presence of cancer in pelvic lymph nodes removed during radical surgery for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) is a key determinant of patient outcome. It would be beneficial to predict node status preoperatively to tailor the use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and extent of lymph node dissection. Of 12 published node status predictors based on tumor RNA expression signatures, non
Kan man leva på en ödegård? Uppenbarligen har man inte kunnat det eftersom flera medeltida gårdar efter pesten och den medeltida agrarkrisen förblev öde. Svaret på frågan är avhängigt inte bara arealer, klimat och jordar utan i lika stor utsträckning sociala förhållanden och odlingssystem. Den kan alltså omformuleras till: På vilka villkor kan en given yta tjäna som underlag för ett hushåll?Detta
