Crustaceans inhabit a wide variety of habitats, from the open ocean to ephemeral pools. Within these habitats, crustaceans play key roles as herbivores, detritivores, and predators, and interact with competitors ranging from conspecifics to other crustaceans to diverse assemblages of invertebrates. As with most communities and ecosystems, efforts to understand the impacts of crustacean community d
Purpose of review – Small cell lung cancer (SCLC), particularly its transdifferentiated form, is highly aggressive and has a poor prognosis. The diagnosis of SCLC transdifferentiation is challenging, as repeat biopsies are often not clinically feasible and few noninvasive predictors of this neuroendocrine transformation have been identified to date. Recent findings – Some retrospective studies and
Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is increasingly used for construction of multi-storey buildings. However, ensuring satisfactory vibro-acoustic performance, particularly in the low-frequency range (typically below 200 Hz), remains a significant challenge, often necessitating add-on solutions such as floating floors. In this study, the aim was to investigate how vibration levels for CLT panels can be r
Studies of the Silurian sequence on Gotland have significantly advanced our understanding of Silurian climate dynamics, with much of the research focusing on small outcrops and short cores. Gotland has an extensive network of abandoned oil and gas wells. Most of these include gamma-ray well logs, which have not yet been fully utilised for their stratigraphic value. While the Ordovician succession
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma are heterogeneous respiratory diseases with overlapping symptoms but distinct underlying biology. As both diseases involve dysregulated inflammatory signalling, identifying disease- and compartment-specific pathways and biomarkers could improve diagnosis and treatment. A disintegrin and metalloproteinase 17 (ADAM17) is a key sheddase that inf
We present a genome assembly from a female specimen of Podarcis vaucheri (Andalusian wall lizard; Chordata; Lepidosauria; Squamata; Lacertidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1,614.91 megabases and 1,510.74 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (98.26%) is scaffolded into 20 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. Most of haplotype 2 (98.63%) is sc
Introduction: Umbilical cord blood measurement is the gold standard of evaluating neonatal metabolic status at birth. Dual sampling of cord blood vessels is clinical routine, yet the long-term value of venoarterial differences(ΔpH) is undetermined. The objective was to investigate the association of ΔpH, to long-term mortality and morbidity up to 20 years.Material and methods: This was a retrospecIntroductionUmbilical cord blood measurement is the gold standard of evaluating neonatal metabolic status at birth.

Adeno-associated viral vectors have become a leading choice for gene therapy in the central nervous system due to their safety profile, efficient neuronal transduction, and capacity for sustained transgene expression. We previously reported that AAV2-derived capsids developed using the BRAVE (Barcoded Rational AAV Vector Evolution) approach have enhanced retrograde transport properties in the rode
The 39.4% decline in numbers in the Northeast/Northwest European population of Bewick’s Swan Cygnus columbianus bewickii between 1995 (29,780 birds) and 2010 (18,057 birds) was of major conservation concern, alleviated by a partial recovery to 20,149 recorded in the January 2015 census. The most recent census, in January 2020, however found that the recovery was not sustained. The results describe
As artistic research grows into an established mode of academic inquiry, it has become possible to distinguish a ruling metaparadigm which we denote as the practice paradigm. This paradigm is to a large extent based on the argument that artistic research is not equipped to produce standalone theories, but instead offers ways to develop and disseminate knowledge through sensory media and embodiment
Viral hepatitis remains a global health concern, with growing recognition of the impact of hepatitis A virus (HAV), hepatitis E virus (HEV), and herpesvirus-associated hepatitis, particularly in vulnerable groups. This narrative review from the ESCMID Study Group for Viral Hepatitis (ESGVH) summarizes recent advances and expert perspectives. For HAV, insights into viral evolution, epidemiology, an
The increasing datafication of the workplace is often cast as a means of imposing organisational and managerial control on workers. This reflection note moves beyond this view and coins the term data-driven labour organising to discuss the potential of workplace datafication as a way to inform workers about their working conditions and how to use data to advocate for their collective goals. Forgin
Digital trace data can be used to capture organizational practices in granular detail and enable the automation of a wide range of managerial tasks. One example is Digital Productivity Assistants (DPA) that harness digital trace data about knowledge workers’ performance and make targeted suggestions for how to improve and optimize their work patterns. Previous research shows that despite benevolen
How do you feel about tracking your time? Some of you might welcome it and some might feel it’s an infringement on their freedom and privacy. Stig Nyman will bring some clarity on the topic in this week's episode, Stig is a Ph.D. student at the department for Digitalisation at Copenhagen Business School, he has dedicated his time to study the implications of being managed by an algorithm. His rese
We present a microchannel-based adaptation of mass density-gradient centrifugation for the mass density measurement of cells or microparticles. The workflow consists of three basic steps: Microchannel filling, centrifugation, and microscopy. Microchannel filling and subsequent centrifugation of two liquids with different densities allows the instantaneous, precise, and repeatable generation of a o
Daylight is crucial for the well-being of individuals in indoor environments, providing numerous physiological and psychological benefits. Achieving satisfactory daylight levels can be particularly challenging during adaptive reuse of existing buildings for new purposes. This study determined the feasibility of adapting an office for residential use by assessing interior daylight availability and
