BACKGROUND: Phosphatidylethanol (PEth) is an alcohol use biomarker with higher clinical sensitivity and specificity than commonly used alcohol markers. Since its introduction as a clinical alcohol-marker in 2006, the number of samples sent to our laboratory for the determination of PEth has shown a strong annual increase. This has prompted the need to develop a cost-effective and reliable analytic
This is an overview article regarding artificial intelligence (AI) and its potential normative implications. Technology has always had inherent normative consequences not least due to AI and the use of algorithms. There is a crucial difference between algorithms in a technical sense and from a social-science perspective. It is a question of different orders of normativity - the first related to th
Compared to intensive research on km-sized meteorite impact craters, fewer studies focus on smaller craters. The small craters are often hard or impossible to recognize using “classical” criteria like the presence of shatter cones, shocked quartz, and geochemical indicators. Therefore, a long list of candidate structures awaiting approval/disapproval of their origin has been formed over the last d
The article presents an empirical study of informal leadership in an international high-tech company. The empirical work consisted of qualitative observation and shadowing of managers in the company, and a total of 14 interviews. The transcribed fieldnotes and audio recordings of observations and interviews were analyzed thematically, resulting in three central themes: informality, information bas
We ask what caused poverty to decline in Brazil over the last decade. Our contribution lies in the introduction of a structural change perspective to assess the evolution of poverty by considering the sectoral impact of growth and the social policies at the federal, state and municipal level. We confirm previous findings in the literature that the service sector rather than agriculture contributes
We describe the presumably first intentional ABO-incompatible deceased-donor kidney and pancreas transplantation with a severe antibody-mediated rejection during a rebound of isoagglutinins. Rejection was successfully treated with eculizumab, which inhibits the terminal pathway of complement. Complement analysis (C3, C3d,g, and a modified assay of classical complement-related hemolytic function) d
This paper examines traces of Sámi habitation in southern and central Scandi-navia, particularly Sweden, addressing the late medieval period to the end of thenineteenth century. It begins with Swedish judicial policy against Sámi nomadismin central Sweden, followed by a discussion of medieval Sámi material culture insouthern Scandinavia. Further analysis addresses so-called Parish-Lapp indenture,w
Objective: To investigate the dynamic changes of soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase−1 (sFlt−1), placental growth factor (PlGF) and their ratio in maternal plasma, from preeclampsia diagnosis to postpartum, evaluating its clinical utility. Methods: Single-center prospective longitudinal cohort study with repeated sample collection in women with established preeclampsia (PE). Seventy-five (n = 75) wom
We study the geometric significance of Leinster’s magnitude invariant. For closed manifolds we find a precise relation with Brylinski’s beta function and therefore with classical invariants of knots and submanifolds. In the special case of compact homogeneous spaces we obtain an elementary proof that the residues of the beta function contain the same geometric information as the asymptotic expansi
: Based on the recent progress on research and development on automated vehicles, mass production of partially autonomous driving vehicles is expected to be available in the 2020s. According to the SAE standard level 3, a takeover situation may occur where the vehicle driving party changes if autonomous driving is released for unavoidable reasons resulting from vehicle or system limitations. In th
In this first episode of the podcast Nic and Rebecca invite Michiel Lambrechts to the mic and chat to him about planet formation. Thereafter they take a closer look at one of their favourite astronomical objects: Le Verrier's planet.
Archived radar data has various applications, though it is often underutilised. Nevertheless, this information has the possibility to aid in the development of accurate and relevant climate adaptation tools, inform climate-resilient urban development strategies, and numerous other personal and societal applications. Our work in the RadClim Baltic Sea Region (BSR) project established the potential

This essay aims to analyze the depiction of an ideal soldier in order to research whether these depictions perpetuate values and ideals found in the theoretical framework of militarized masculinity and the logic of masculinist protection. The selected material consists of official documents from both the Swedish Armed Forces as well as the United States Armed Forces, which will be analyzed through
Peru grapples with severe water insecurity due to climate change and ecosystem degradation. In response, the government implemented the Ecosystem Services Compensation Mechanism for Water Security (MERESE), employing Payment for Ecosystem Services to incentivize nature-based solutions. Central to MERESE are Good Governance Platforms, multi-stakeholder bodies overseeing implementation and ensuring
How the melodic sound of Swedish can help Swedes automatically assess new languages How the melodic sound of Swedish can help Swedes automatically assess new languages Publicerad den 8 februari 2021 Learning a second language can feel like a slow and tedious process. Yet, the human brain starts segmenting and categorising new language input virtually from the very second that it is exposed it. It

GLOW submission In Defense of the Merge-Only Hypothesis Koji Fujita / Kyoto University In this presentation I defend and further consolidate the “Merge-only” hypothesis of current minimalism (Chomsky 2008, 2010, Berwick 2011, Berwick & Chomsky 2011, inter alia) by proposing a theory of language evolution according to which it was Merge that gave rise to other major components of the human language
