The book’s aim is to systematize normative assessments of the Court of Justice of the European Union’s decision-making process, defining ‘normative’ as an evaluation based on openly acknowledged, theoretically informed standards that take into account the institutional reality of the Court. This is important because the stakes are very high: the Court is a very influential institution, and the mot

Among the many EU law doctrines, none remains as largely uncontroversial as the fundamental normative division between us, the EU citizens at the centre of the legal order and the others, non-EU migrants. Next to the Treaty framework and the different legal bases for free movement of persons and migration, the case law of the Court of Justice of the EU has been central in sustaining the dividing l

Five moulded terracotta votive heads from Tessennano, Te 1-5, three terracotta sarcophagi from Tuscania, Tu 1-3, two terracotta votive heads from Vulci, Vu 1-2 and three votive heads from Tarquinia, Ta 1-3 are presented in this study. They are included in a larger ongoing research and have been dated to the late third and second centuries B.C. Moulds deriving from the same handmade prototype, henc

While sought for over a century, the birth of the distinctive bucket-shaped ceramic technology on the Scandinavian Peninsula has been overshadowed by its enigmatic senescence or ‘death’ in the sixth century AD. This omnipresent Migration Period container was in use for two centuries, from the mid-fourth to the mid-sixth centuries AD, spreading quickly and widely from the western region to the east

Recently, mass spectrometry based peptidomics studies have proven useful in the identification of biomarkers and bioactive peptide-based therapeutics. Here, we present a dataset comprised of temporal wound fluid peptidomics data from highly defined porcine models. Wound fluids from porcine wounds infected with Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and uninfected controls, were sampled

Background: Racial differences in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) genomes have not yet been fully studied. We aimed to investigate transcriptomic, mutational, and clinical differences by race in a large multi-institutional cohort of men with mCRPC. Methods: Genomic and clinicopathologic data from four mCRPC tumor biopsy cohorts were obtained and aggregated. Gene set enrichm

Language anxiety (LA) is among the most researched emotions in language learning research. Mirroring the recent dynamic turn in the broader field, LA researchers are increasingly interested in the situation-specific and dynamic nature of anxiety (Elahi Shirvan & Taherian, 2021; MacIntyre, 2017). In practice, this must be accompanied by a movement towards methodologies sensitive to potential dy

We report the synthesis of bell-shaped Bi/Bi13S18Br2 metal/semiconductor heterostructures as a photocatalyst based on nontoxic and Earth-abundant elements. Their unique morphology arises from a multistep growth process, involving (1) the nucleation of Bi13S18Br2 nanorods, (2) the reduction of a metallic-Bi domain on their surface induced by N,N-didodecylmethylamine, and (3) the heterostructure acc

Spine Computed Tomography (SCT) is essential for identifying fractures, tumors and degenerative spine diseases, assisting medical practitioners in formulating an accurate diagnosis and treatment. One of the core element of SCT is reporting. The effectiveness of spine reporting is often limited by challenges such as an inadequate infrastructure and lack of experts. Automated SCT analysis has the po

The metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) dynamics of beta-gallium oxide (β-Ga2O3) growth using trimethylgallium (TMGa) and oxygen as precursors were investigated through both theoretical thermodynamic analysis and experimental validation in a horizontal low-pressure hot-wall reactor. Thermodynamic analysis revealed that high-purity β-Ga2O3 can be grown through the complete combustion of

Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy disorder characterized by systemic endothelial damage that leads to long-term cardiovascular complications. The endothelial glycocalyx (EG) covers the luminal surface of endothelium playing a critical role in vascular homeostasis. In this study we aimed to evaluate EG thickness and blood pressure (BP) trends in women with a history of PE vs. normotensive pregnancy.

Denna rapport bygger på en genomgång av 289 kommuners och 21 regioners årsredovisningar (Gotland ingår i båda; bortfall en kommun) utifrån frågeställningen om hur förvaltningsberättelsens obligatoriska rubriker enligt RKR R15 Förvaltningsberättelse har implementerats i praxis, dels avseende förekomst och ordning, dels informationsinnehåll. Avseende de obligatoriska rubrikernas förekomst och ordnin

The Gaussian phase distribution approximation enables analysis of restricted diffusion encoded by general gradient waveforms but fails to account for the diffraction-like features that may occur for simple pore geometries. We investigate the range of validity of the approximation by random walk simulations of restricted diffusion in a cylinder using isotropic diffusion encoding sequences as well a

Several studies have reported that heterosexual women's preferences for male faces vary with hormonal fluctuations over the menstrual cycle and that women tend to prefer more masculine faces during ovulation or when not using hormonal contraceptives. While this has been tested using observational data, we provide the first double-blind randomized controlled study testing if oral contraceptives red

Background: Motor fluctuations are routinely documented using the Parkinson's disease (PD) home diary. However, the validity of this diary when compared to clinical observers is limited. Objective: This study disassembled the effects of nonmotor symptoms (NMS) on inter-method agreement between the PD home motor diary and clinical observers (outside validity criterion). Methods: A prospective obser
