Postoperative word-finding difficulties in children with posterior fossa tumours : a crosslinguistic European cohort study

PURPOSE: Posterior fossa tumour (PFT) surgery carries a risk of mutism or severely reduced speech. As for higher-cognitive language functions, word-finding difficulties have been reported, but no study has compared pre- and postoperative word-finding speeds to identify impairment caused by surgery. The current study investigated changes in word-finding ability associated with PFT surgery and exami

Witnessing the Suffering of Others in Watercolor and Pencil : Jadwiga Simon-Pietkiewicz’s Holocaust Art Exhibited in Sweden, 1945-46

In the Holocaust’s immediate aftermath (1945–1946), a small gallery in Lund, Sweden exhibited the paintings and drawings of Polish artist Jadwiga Simon-Pietkiewicz, which depicted her former fellow inmates in the Ravensbrück concentration camp. This exhibit and subsequent exhibitions elsewhere in Sweden marked rare instances of early postwar Holocaust art displayed in a country that had been relat

Evaluation of Real-Time Cardiovascular Flow MRI Using Compressed Sensing in a Phantom and in Patients With Valvular Disease or Arrhythmia

Background: Real-time (RT) phase contrast (PC) flow MRI can potentially be used to measure blood flow in arrhythmic patients. Undersampled RT PC has been combined with online compressed sensing (CS) reconstruction (CS RT) enabling clinical use. However, CS RT flow has not been validated in a clinical setting. Purpose: Evaluate CS RT in phantom and patients. Study Type: Prospective. Population: Flo

Formalism and Instrumentalism in the Marxist Critique of Right : With What Must Pashukanian Theory Begin?

The critique of the legal form of capitalism by E. B. Pashukanis has risen to prominence once again. However, the negative origin of the concept of the legal form, the critique of formalism and instrumentalism, has received too little attention. This essay substantiates the significance of Pashukanis’s critique, avoiding both overly general and narrow conceptions. Moreover, it proposes that his negThe critique of the legal form of capitalism by E. B. Pashukanis has risen to prominence once again.

Dynamical arrest for globular proteins with patchy attractions

Attempts to use colloid science concepts to better understand the dynamic properties of concentrated or crowded protein solutions are challenging due to the fact that globular proteins generally have heterogeneous surfaces that result in anisotropic or patchy contributions to their interaction potential. This is particularly difficult when targeting non-equilibrium transitions such as glass and ge

Clarification and Modification of the International Contact Dermatitis Research Group Classification of Patch Test Reactions on Behalf of the International Contact Dermatitis Research Group

The first ICDRG (International Contact Dermatitis Research Group) classification of patch test reactions was published in 1970. With this classification, many weak reactions were classified as allergic reactions. A second classification was therefore implemented one decade later on behalf of the ICDRG and the North American Contact Dermatitis Group. This classification was adopted by the European

Limits to collaboration in public transport : A typology

Collaboration between public and private partners is often seen as an important tool and is used by public authorities to handle many different problems in society, including public transport. In both research and practice, it is common to find exhortations to increase collaboration and suggestions on how to improve it and make it successful. However, in this chapter, we adopt a critical approach

Decarbonizing the Asian steel industries through green Hot Briquetted Iron trade

The Asian steel industry produces 73 % of global steel and is expanding. The speed and plans for decarbonizing the Asian steel sector are thus globally important. Importing green Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI), iron ore reduced to iron with renewable hydrogen, from renewable-rich countries such as Australia, Brazil and South Africa, could be a good option to avoid constraints with access to renewables.

Efficient Authentication Protocols from the Restricted Syndrome Decoding Problem

In this paper, we introduce an oracle version of the Restricted Syndrome Decoding Problem (RSDP) and propose novel authentication protocols based on the hardness of this problem. They follow the basic structure of the HB-family of authentication protocols and later improvements but demonstrate several advantages.An appropriate choice of multiplicative subgroup and ring structure gives rise to a ve

Plastic Extension of Music

This doctoral thesis in artistic research explores new methods to perform score-based Western art music, based on a transgeneric interpretation by the performer of the score. The project, Plastic Extension of Music, is a response to the need for extending the artistic significance of the performer of score-based music, based on a creative criticism of a tradition that imposes a perpetual and cano

Monuments Cast Shadows : Remembering and Forgetting the ‘Dead Survivors’ of Nazi Persecution in Swedish Cemeteries

In July 2020, two Holocaust memorials disappeared from a Jewish cemetery in Stockholm where Holocaust survivors who died soon after coming to Sweden for medical treatment in 1945 are buried. Though it occurred in the midst of both the global #TakeItDown movement and the Swedish government’s plans to establish a Holocaust museum in Sweden, this removal garnered no media attention or public outcry.

Shaping Ongoing Survival in a Swedish Refugee Camp : A refugee-centered history of Jewish and non-Jewish survivors of Nazi persecution in Sweden

Among the hundreds of sites that housed survivors of Nazi persecution who came to Sweden in the spring and summer of 1945, one of the largest was at the small village of Öreryd. Between June 1945 and September 1946, around a thousand Jewish and non-Jewish Polish survivors came to this site, where they were expected to stay only until they were well enough to return to their home countries or migra

CIGS-AE : A Quantitative Index of Cuneiform Inscriptions

We present an index providing estimates of the number of cuneiform inscriptions derived from individual archaeological locations, along with bibliographical references for these estimates. Archaeological finds of cuneiform inscriptions are known from across Europe, Asia, and Africa, with the present index including an aggregate 430,000 inscriptions distributed across 600 locations. This index can

Hunting flight behaviour of the Eleonora's Falcon Falco eleonorae

The Eleonora's Falcon Falco eleonorae breeds on islands and islets in the Mediterranean region and feeds its young on migratory birds caught in the air. The breeding season is scheduled to coincide with the peak of bird migration. Between 12 and 20 September 1997 we measured flight tracks of falcons within a range of 4 km from their breeding cliffs on Isola di San Pietro 6 km off the south-west co

The moult of Barred Warblers Sylvia nisoria in Kenya—evidence for a split wing‐moult pattern initiated during the birds' first winter

The moult of Barred Warblers Sylvia nisoria was studied during three winter seasons in southeastern Kenya at a southward passage site (Ngulia) and a wintering site (Mtito Andei). Most Barred Warblers migrating through Ngulia in November had yet to commence winter moult. These birds probably moulted subsequently in winter in northern Tanzania. In December, birds were found in heavy moult at Mtito A

Oceanic navigation : Are there any feasible geomagnetic bi-coordinate combinations for albatrosses?

The possibility that albatrosses use a geomagnetic bi-coordinate map for long-distance navigation at sea was investigated by evaluating how five different geomagnetic parameters (i.e. total field intensity, horizontal and vertical field intensity, inclination and declination) vary in areas where foraging albatrosses have been recorded by satellite telemetry in the Southern Ocean. Our objective was

Bimodal orientation and the occurrence of temporary reverse bird migration during autumn in South Scandinavia

Extensive ringing data from a coastal site (Falsterbo Bird Observatory) in southwesternmost Sweden were used to investigate the occurrence of reverse autumn migration among 20 passerine bird species oF widely different migration categories. The data demonstrate that reverse migration is a widespread and regular phenomenon among nocturnal as well as diurnal migrants and among irruptive migrants, te
