Based on a review of studies of functional and comparative anatomy of crustacean eyes, a hypothesis is formed on eyes in primitive crustaceans. It is suggested that they were similar to present-day frontal eyes of the malacostracan type. Neuronal architecture suggests that the development to apposition compound eye followed two main routes, one seen in malacostracansand the other in non-malacostra
Disc brakes wear during braking events and release airborne particulates. These particle emissions are currently one of the highest contributors to non-exhaust particle emissions and introduce health hazards as well as environmental contamination. To reduce this problem, wear and corrosion-resistant disc coatings have been implemented on grey cast iron brake disc rotors by using various deposition
Faced with environmental degradation, governments worldwide are developing policies to safeguard ecosystem services (ES). Many ES models exist to support these policies, but they are generally poorly validated, especially at large scales, which undermines their credibility. To address this gap, we describe a study of multiple models of five ES, which we validate at an unprecedented scale against 1
In the area of imitation learning, one of the important research problems is action representation. There has been a growing interest in expressing actions as a combination of meaningful subparts called action primitives. Action primitives could be thought of as elementary building blocks for action representation. In this article, we present a complete concept of learning action primitives to rec
OBJECTIVE - To analyze the effect of antibodies to glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD65Ab) and islet cells (ICA512Ab) on glycemic control early in IDDM. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - GAD65Ab and ICA512Ab were measured twice in 35 patients (10 male, 25 female; age 1040 years) initially within 2 years of diagnosis and again 1 year later. The glycosylated hemoglobin was measured one to four times each
In this paper, we present a side-channel attack on a first-order masked implementation of IND-CCA secure Saber KEM. We show how to recover both the session key and the long-term secret key from 24 traces using a deep neural network created at the profiling stage. The proposed message recovery approach learns a higher-order model directly, without explicitly extracting random masks at each executio
Coarctation of the aorta is a congenital heart anomalyinvolving constriction of an aortic segment, associated with wall thickening of media and the formationof overlapping infolding of neointimal tissue. For thefirst time it was described by Morgagni in 1760. Thispathology represents 5% -7% of all congenital heartdiseases, with an incidence of approximately 3 casesto 10 000 neonates1. The typical
This article draws on social practice theory and wellbeing perspectives to outline a research framework for the study of flight-intensive practices. The framework is then used to discuss, through a non-systematic review, the social science air travel literature and to propose avenues for future research. We study both the work and leisure domains, with sub-cases for travel in academia and visiting
On 31 January 2018, the Danish Competition and Consumer Authority adopted a decision that found the Swedish company CD Pharma, a generic distributor, to be in breach of Article 102(a) TFEU due to having abused its dominant position and imposed excessive and unfair prices for the drug Syntocinon. The company had increased the price of the drug by 2000% on the Danish market in the period April 2014-On 31 January 2018, the Danish Competition and Consumer Authority adopted a decision that found the Swedish company CD Pharma, a generic distributor, to be in breach of Article 102(a) TFEU due to having abused its dominant position and imposed excessive and unfair prices for the drug Syntocinon.

Introduction: Postnatal perineal pain is prevalent following childbirth and can impact women both physically and emotionally. The aim of the study was to study the effect of collegial midwifery assistance on perineal pain and pain medication 1 month after birth and to investigate the associations between the type of tear and perineal pain, satisfaction with healing, and resumption of intercourse.
Planetary health is being or should be added to medical training curricula in accordance with association consensus. Several articles published in recent years have addressed concern on the implementation, and the challenges that can occur if not addressed properly. This scoping narrative literature review focuses on planetary health as a concept, as well as challenges and suggested solutions to a
Motivated by the need for realistic, dynamically self-consistent, evolving galaxy models that avoid the complexity of full, and zoom-in, cosmological simulations, we have developed Nexus, an integral framework to create and evolve synthetic galaxies made of collisionless and gaseous components. Nexus leverages the power of publicly available, tried-and-tested packages: the stellar-dynamics, action
Objective: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised trials and observational studies assessing outcomes of different endovascular management approaches for the treatment of acute lower limb ischaemia (ALI) when adjusted for Rutherford classification. Data Sources: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. Review Methods: A literature search was performed in PubMed
The aim of this work is to aid the development of online handwriting recognition software by using a linguistic approach to the problem of categorizing handwriting styles. This is done by exploring the wide variety of styles among users of the Latin alphabet, trying to explain the variety and finding ways of categorizing the styles. The variety is due to the many variables open to the writer and t
Abstract This is a study of present day dogs with the purpose to establish a method to investigate archaeological dogs and determine their use in the past. The study has focused on measurements of five bone elements, scapula, humerus, radius, ulna and femur. A principal component analysis has been applied in order to decide which measurements to be further used in the analysis. Different proporti
This study undertakes a quantitative and usage-based Cognitive Linguistic study on the representation and conceptualisation of FEMININITY on English Wikipedia. Contemporary information media are changing fundamentally and the place of Wikipedia in the new media space is important not only because of its influence but because it is radically different to traditional media. Unlike news press, the ci
