While some states maintain prohibitions, others, including Kazakhstan, have legalized gambling as a tool for revenue generation and tourism development. This expansion, however, has produced significant social costs, including family disruption, rising indebtedness
There is an increasing body of evidence, based on well-controlled clinical trials and long-term follow-up, that liposuction can result in significant objective and subjective benefit to patients who have long-term chronic primary or secondary lymphedema with long-term results. There are, however, different views on the immediate, short-, and long-term benefits of liposuction for treating lymphedem
This Frontiers paper develops a synthesis on deliberating smart knowledge politics for urban transformations, based on a 3-year collaborative research project conducting case studies in cities in the UK, France, the Netherlands, Germany and Spain (de Hoop et al. 2017). Over the past decade, smart urban initiatives have been presented as a panacea for complex urban challenges (Kummitha and Reddy 20
The lexical bias effect refers to the tendency for phonological speech errors to have lexical rather than non-lexical outcomes. This effect has often been used as a piece of evidence in theories of speech production, informing assumptions about monitoring and spreading activation. However, the lexical bias effect is known only from investigations of a relatively small set of languages, and the fin
This paper compares neologism formation in five Indigenous languages of Northeastern Brazil that are currently undergoing revitalization or post-dormancy recovery. With a focus on the coining of nouns and numerals, the study categorizes neologisms according to morphological (e.g. compounding, derivation, borrowing) and semantic processes (e.g. extension) and assesses their distribution of these ac

Den pågående energiomställningen har inneburit en överhalning av både policy och infrastruktur. Medan beslutsfattare och industrin letar efter nya tillvägagångssätt för att tackla alltmer växande problem som klimatomställningar, resiliens och energifattigdom, är sektorn under total transformation. Det finns en ökad medvetenhet om att energisektorn inte bara består av teknik, utan också av människoDen pågående energiomställningen har inneburit en överhalning av både policy och infrastruktur.
