Corrigendum to “Initial oxidation of low index Mg surfaces investigated by SCLS and DFT” [Appl. Surf. Sci. 671 (2024) 160656]

The correct acknowledgment to Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste in the article should read: “We acknowledge Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste for providing access to its synchrotron radiation facilities and we thank Dr. Polina M. Sheverdyaeva and Dr. Paolo Moras for assistance in using the VUV-Photoemission beamline (proposal nr. 20145452)”. The authors would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Planting Roots: An Oral and Visual History of Polish Immigrant Gardening in Chicagoland

Immigrants’ means of making home have arisen as an important locus of study amidst the ever-present cycles of migration coloring our world. This work takes a homemaking lens to address the home gardening practices and related environmental interactions of Polish immigrants in the Chicago area. It mixes oral history, ethnographic garden walks, as well as the arts-based research methods of autobiogr

Häxkonstens efterskalv : hur häxprocesserna i Salem påverkade det efterlämnade samhället

En diskursiv undersökning av eftermälet till häxprocesserna i Salem Village 1692-1693. Uppsatsens historiska källmaterial omfattar samtida publicerade verk och önskar utforska hur samhället bemötte häxprocesserna efter att de inträffat och varför. Detta görs genom att analysera hur koncept som diskurs, makt, genus och intersektionalitet representeras i källmaterialet. Undersökningen kan på så sätt

Anoikis-related genes linked with patient outcome in pancreatic cancer

Anoikis is programmed cell death occurring upon cell detachment from the extracellular matrix. Cancer cells need to evade anoikis to be able to metastasize to distant sites. However, the molecular features and prognostic value of anoikis-related genes (ARGs) in pancreatic cancer remain unclear. In this study, we utilized transcriptome data from the TCGA and GSE102238 databases to identify 64 ARGs

Change in economic burden of diarrhoea in children under-five in Bangladesh : 2007 vs. 2018

BACKGROUND: In Bangladesh, diarrhoea in children under-five is a major public health problem with cost implications. Although under-five diarrhoea mortality and morbidity have declined from 2007 to 2018, change in the economic burden is unknown. This study determined the change in the societal economic burden of under-five diarrhoea in Bangladesh comparing 2007 to 2018.METHODS: A prevalence-based,

Revised OSL chronology of the Kisiljevo loess-palaeosol sequence : New insight into the dust flux in the eastern Carpathian Basin during MIS 3 - MIS1

This study presents a detailed investigation of the Kisiljevo loess-palaeosol sequence in north-eastern Serbia, offering a refined understanding of its paleoenvironmental dynamics. Contrasting our updated OSL chronology with a previous study, reveals discrepancies, particularly at 400 cm depth, where a considerable age underestimation is evident. While variations in sampling depth and methodology

Trends in population-based incidence, diagnostics, and mortality of acute superior mesenteric artery occlusion

Acute occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) results in lethal intestinal ischemia. Results from two previous population-based studies in Malmö, Sweden, suggest a decreasing incidence of acute SMA occlusion. This study aimed to evaluate trends in the epidemiology of acute SMA occlusion in Malmö. The report was a retrospective population-based study conducted from 2014 to 2019 on patient

The impact of a mobile geriatric acute team on healthcare consumption

PURPOSE: This study describes the effects of a mobile geriatric acute team (GAT) treating acutely ill geriatric patients in their homes. GAT offered more advanced diagnostic and treatment options than are normally available to primary-care led mobile teams. The aim of this study was to evaluate if interventions by GAT had effect on the number of emergency department (ED) visits, hospitalisations,

Hope is Not Enough : Examining the Role of Spirituality in Encounters with Climate Emotions: A Case-Study of Danish Green Churches

This research builds on the assertion that spirituality can be beneficial to human-wellbeing and in creating nature-connection. Applying that notion within the historical context of Christianity and its ties to the work-ethics of capitalism, the paper presents a case-study of the Threeclover Church, a Protestant Green Church in Denmark’s capital region. The aim is to gain further understanding of

Basicervical femoral neck fractures : an observational study derived from the Swedish Fracture Register

Background and purpose — Limited research has been conducted on basicervical femoral neck fractures (bFNFs). The importance of displacement in clinical outcomes remains unclear. We aimed to characterize patient demographics, degree of displacement, treatment, treatment failures, and reoperations in a cohort of fractures from the Swedish Fracture Register (SFR). Methods — 1,260 fractures in 1,185 i

Moving away from, moving towards and moving against others : An adaptive multi-strategy approach to defend and build resources in self-protection mode

In the face of extreme and enduring stressors, a self-protection coping mode can be entered to conserve resources (Conservation of Resources (COR) theory principle 4). Self-protection coping is underexplored in COR theory yet may offer insights about how people deal with the significant challenges posed by work today. We investigate this using a large-group collaborative auto-ethnography (CAE) wit

A temporal developmental map separates human NK cells from noncytotoxic ILCs through clonal and single-cell analysis

Natural killer (NK) cells represent the cytotoxic member within the innate lymphoid cell (ILC) family that are important against viral infections and cancer. Although the NK cell emergence from hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells through multiple intermediate stages and the underlying regulatory gene network has been extensively studied in mice, this process is not well characterized in humans

Craft Embeddedness: Markets and the Quest for Authenticity in Intimate Capitalism

This chapter examines the evolving landscape of craft and its implications for market exchanges, focusing on the embedded relationships between craft producers and consumers. Craft, characterized as an ideology of work resisting the dominance of industrialization and mass production, has experienced several waves of revival throughout history. While contemporary craft hints at alternative social a

Integrating digital technologies in agriculture for climate change adaptation and mitigation : State of the art and future perspectives

Agriculture faces a major challenge in meeting the world’s growing demand for food in a sustainable manner in the face of increasing environmental pressures, in particular the growing impact of climate change. Agriculture is also a major contributor to climate change. Digital technologies in agriculture can contribute to climate change adaptation and mitigation. This paper examines the interaction

Geometry-Biased Transformer for Robust Multi-View 3D Human Pose Reconstruction

We address the challenges in estimating 3D human poses from multiple views under occlusion and with limited overlapping views. We approach multi-view, single-person 3D human pose reconstruction as a regression problem and propose a novel encoder-decoder Transformer architecture to estimate 3D poses from multi-view 2D pose sequences. The encoder refines 2D skeleton joints detected across different

Cyber-Physical Systems: A Model-Based Approach

In this concise yet comprehensive Open Access textbook, future inventors are introduced to the key concepts of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). Using modeling as a way to develop deeper understanding of the computational and physical components of these systems, one can express new designs in a way that facilitates their simulation, visualization, and analysis. Concepts are introduced in a cross-disc

We address the non-convex optimisation problem of finding a sparse matrix on the Stiefel manifold (matrices with mutually orthogonal columns of unit length) that maximises (or minimises) a quadratic objective function. Optimisation problems on the Stiefel manifold occur for example in spectral relaxations of various combinatorial problems, such as graph matching, clustering, or permutation synchro
