The core aim of this chapter is to explore the potential of the EU Charter in developing social protection in times of poly-crisis. In the past, EU Member States have gone through a number of events that have been termed as crises, calling for a paradigm shift in EU governance (economic, migration, and more recently health crises). While the effects of these crises are still felt, the EU is faced

Clinical trials frequently include multiple end points that mature at different times. The initial report, typically based on the primary end point, may be published when key planned co-primary or secondary analyses are not yet available. Clinical Trial Updates provide an opportunity to disseminate additional results from studies, published in JCO or elsewhere, for which the primary end point has

Abstract: The Abrasion–Ablation Monte Carlo for Colliders (AAMCC) model is used to study the characteristics of spectator matter in central collisions of relativistic 238U nuclei, which are sensitive to the mutual orientation and the degree of deformation of the colliding nuclei. It is shown that the multiplicity of spectator neutrons and their forward-backward asymmetry substantially depend on th

BackgroundThis study aimed to investigate the exposure to perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and cancer-related toxicity in workers in different Swedish industry sectors with exposures to hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)).MethodsThe study consisted of 111 exposed workers and 72 controls. The exposed workers were performing manufacture/processing of metal products (n=55), working in steel production (n=31

The Horometer instrument in Peter Apian's 1533 Instrument Buch is described and analyzed. This paper is illustrated by several examples of how to manipulate and set up the instrument using the Sun, the Moon and stars to determine time. The paper also contains an Appendix on the mathematics behind its construction.

CONTEXT: Although the importance of palliative care (PC) integration in the emergency department (ED) has long been recognized, few formalized programs have been reported, and none have evaluated the experience of ED clinicians with embedded PC.OBJECTIVES: We evaluate the experience of ED clinicians with embedded PC in the ED during the coronavirus disease pandemic.METHODS: ED clinicians completed

Somatic copy number variations (CNVs), including abnormal chromosome numbers and structural changes leading to gain or loss of genetic material, play a crucial role in initiation and progression of cancer. CNVs are believed to cause gene dosage imbalances and modify cis-regulatory elements, leading to allelic expression imbalances in genes that influence cell division and thereby contribute to can

During the last two decades our understanding of human B cell differentiation has developed considerably. Our understanding of the human B cell compartment has advanced from a point where essentially all assays were based on the presence or not of class-switched antibodies to a level where a substantial diversity is appreciated among the cells involved. Several consecutive transitional stages that

Despite efforts to integrate BIM and BEM, challenges persist, including incomplete data, errors, and the need for manual corrections, all hindering the implementation of sustainable building designs. Professionals in the Swedish architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry have yet to fully adopt standardized practices for exchanging BIM and BEM data. This article explores the challe
