This study examines processes of transnational alliance-building among political parties in the European Union (EU). It is associated with theories of transnational relations, neofunctionalist integration theory and domestic politics approaches to international co-operation and integration. The overall aim of the study is to contribute to the understanding and growth of knowledge of transnational

Over the past 50 years there has been an unprecedented increase in pollution globally. Population growth and higher standards of living have resulted in increases in global consumption facilitated by industrialisation and globalisation of goods and services thus resulting in the release of environmental pollutants on a mass scale. This article analyses the effects and consequences of pollution on

Hypothesis: The structure and functionality of pea albumin can be described in detail as a combination of its main fractions, PA1 and PA2. Experimental: PA1 and PA2 were purified from a Pea Albumin extract (PA) using size exclusion chromatography, and characterized by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Their secondary structure was analyzed using Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). T

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are proteins that, in comparison with globular/structured proteins, lack a distinct tertiary structure. Here, we use the model IDP, Histatin 5, for studying its dynamical properties under self-crowding conditions with quasi-elastic neutron scattering in combination with full atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The aim is to determine the effects

Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is estimated by creatinine or cystatin C-based GFR-estimating equations. Those based upon creatinine, but not those based upon cystatin C, use ”race” terms due to that different populations differ in average muscular mass, influencing the creatinine, but not the cystatin C, level. “Race” is not a biological, but a sociological term, determined by self-assesment. Ne

Large stocks of soil organic carbon (SOC) accumulated in the Northern Hemisphere permafrost regions may be vulnerable to climatic warming, but global estimates of SOC distribution and magnitude in permafrost regions still have large uncertainties. Based on multiple high-resolution environmental variables and a compiled soil sample dataset (>3000 soil profiles), we used machine-learning methods to

Background and purpose — There is an ongoing debate regarding the appropriate level of constraint in primary TKA. To provide increased stability and better kinematics, more resembling a natural knee, a medial congruent (MC) tibial insert has been introduced. To investigate potential impact on implant migration, we evaluated the cemented Persona TKA, randomizing between MC and cruciate-retaining (C

An exhaustive evaluation of water resources is a prerequisite for evidence-informed planning and implementing sustainable management strategies. However, the lack of sufficient information on water supply and consumption, alongside the technical limitations on comprehensive accounting for inter-relations and interactions between the subsystems, has resulted in decisions with often long-lasting out

Financial institutions and VAT are often like oil and water. If a financial institution is considering centralizing an activity in a certain jurisdiction, non-recoverable VAT could pose a serious problem. In addition to that, ambiguous judgments of the European Court of Justice have contributed to this issue. As of now, even services carried out within the same legal entity may trigger non-recov

OBJECTIVE: To compare the accuracy and reasons for disagreement of two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography findings in the assessment of the atrioventricular valve complex in patients with atrioventricular septal defect. METHODS: A total of 20 children (mean age 8 months) with atrioventricular septal defect were enrolled prospectively into this study. The accuracy of and t

Extracellular levels of striatal γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and taurine were monitored during insulin-induced hypoglycemia using microdialysis. At the onset of isoelectricity in the electroencephalogram (EEG), a transient 5-fold increase in the levels of GABA occurred. Taurine levels increased 5 min following the onset of isoelectricity and continued to increase during the entire isoelectric perio

Separately collected urine is an attractive potential fertilizer because of its high nutrient content, low cost, and inherent linkage of urban wastewater management and peri-urban agriculture. Urine from waterless urinals was applied to corn and lettuce plants to examine the impact of urine application rates and frequency on plant growth and soil parameters. In both corn and lettuce experiments, u
