In a time marked by rising geopolitical tensions and societal conflicts, the traditional corporate emphasis on maximizing shareholder value is increasingly evolving towards a more public-oriented approach that includes societal and ethical considerations. Should organizations invest in activities that are not their primary responsibilities? Based on conflict management, corporate social responsibi

Indiana Jones’ staunch anti-Nazism and the franchise’s satirical belittling and ridicule of the Third Reich render its protagonist an antifascist memetic icon. While considerable attention has been devoted to the digital media landscape of the right, less emphasis is given to left-wing movements and memetic warfare. Through analysis of humorous representations of German Nazis in the films, where N

Trademarks increasingly serve as indicators of product innovation and broader industry shifts, encompassing a wide range of innovation activities and soft innovations often overlooked by patents. However, research on the relationship between trademarks and innovation remains in its early stages, with a lack of exploration into China's soft innovation from the trademark perspective. This paper addr
Viral protein X (Vpx) is a unique accessory protein encoded by the genome of the human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV-2) and lineages of the simian immunodeficiency virus of sooty mangabeys. So far, counteracting the cellular restriction factor SAMHD1 and mediating the efficient translocation of viral pre-integration complex have been recognized as key functions of Vpx; however, a thorough exp
Safety in general and fire safety in particular are key concerns in neutron-based research facilities, and the choice of the material that is used to stop neutron radiation is critical in this respect. Borated paraffin has been used at existing research facilities and could potentially be used at new facilities. However, a literature search resulted in very little information about the fire proper
Welfare technology (WT) use is increasingly advocated to facilitate aging in place. However, it remains unclear how older adults and homecare staff perceive these digital technologies in practice. This qualitative study investigated the ways in which current WT either facilitated or fell short in supporting older adults in their daily lives and homecare staff at work. Four key themes were develope
PURPOSE Remote symptom monitoring shows promise in promoting postdischarge contact between patients and clinicians. Unique strategies may be needed to tailor reach and engagement to specific patient populations. We aimed to assess implementation and effectiveness outcomes of a patient-reported symptom assessment tool (Recovery Tracker [RT]) after major urologic operations.MATERIALS AND METHODS Pat
Quantifications of phytoplankton biomass and species composition are crucial for monitoring biodiversity and population dynamics in aquatic environments, and both direct microscopic counts and fluorescence-based methods have been widely used for monitoring. Recent advancements in DNA metabarcoding offer an alternative way of easily assessing diversity and species composition. However, a comprehens
Interconnected societal challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss and food security demand immediate and coordinated action across local to global scales, guided by coherent policies and management mechanisms. Reflecting on the critical need to address societal challenges, Nature-based Solutions in marine and coastal environments, known as blue NBS, have emerged as an important part of
We investigate the impact of employment protection regulation on firms’ reluctance to apply for bank finance (loans and overdrafts). Our findings reveal that longer notice periods reduce the likelihood that firms are discouraged from applying for bank finance in the case of blue-collar workers, but they increase it in the case of white-collar workers. Our interpretation is that, in the case of blu
The maintenance of variation (i.e., different phenotypes) for heritable traits that are under selection, despite expectations of selection eroding variation and favouring only the fittest phenotype, represents an evolutionary paradox. Here, we studied variation in life-history traits in five populations of colour polymorphic tawny owls (Strix aluco) across Europe that have been individually studie
Globally, thousands of apheresis procedures are performed on a daily basis. Besides, these are relatively short and easy-to-perform preparative procedures in healthy volunteers like plasmapheresis or platelet donation; other procedures like hematopoietic cell donation are more complicated and of longer duration. Therapeutic apheresis is somewhat more challenging, especially in critically ill patie
We study the Higgs boson decay into dark matter (DM) in the framework of freeze-in at stronger coupling. Even though the Higgs-DM coupling is significant, up to order one, DM does not thermalize due to the Boltzmann suppression of its production at low temperatures. We find that this mechanism leads to observable Higgs decay into invisible final states with the branching fraction of 10% and below,
High-speed vertical In–Ga–As nanowire MOS field-effect transistor (MOSFET) measurements were analyzed through parametric layout models. Measurements from small and large transistors were used to fit dependencies on the number of gate fingers and the number of wires per finger. Extrapolations via intrinsic and parasitic elements reveal the optimal layout for peak frequency performance. To achieve a
In Sweden, the national security objective to establish a total defence, which has been pending since the end of the Cold War, has been reintroduced. This has increasingly shifted the attention from civil crisis management to military defence, with subsequent increased resources for defence mobilization. A key threat representation in the current Swedish security narrative is the grey zone, which
The “nutmeg lung pattern” on fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) indicates pulmonary lymphangiectasia. This is associated with adverse outcomes, particularly in fetuses with congenital heart defects and impaired pulmonary venous return. Whereas lymphedema is common in fetuses with Turner syndrome, pulmonary lymphangiectasia is not. A 26-year-old woman presented with a fetus with hypoplastic lef
Developmental language disorder (DLD) affects around 7.5 percent of students. The risks of DLD for reduced educational progress are well documented but teachers often do not feel adequately prepared to support this student group. This study aims to broaden the understanding of teachers’ experiences of working with students with DLD in Swedish mainstream secondary schools. Five focus group intervie
In this paper, we propose an approach that combines Vision Language Models (VLMs) and Behavior Trees (BTs) to address failures in robotics. Current robotic systems can handle known failures with pre-existing recovery strategies, but they are often ill-equipped to manage unknown failures or anomalies. We introduce VLMs as a monitoring tool to detect and identify failures during task execution. Addi
