Smart cities promote computational and data-driven understandings of the built environment and have the potential to reconfigure urban planning and governance practices in profound ways. Smart urbanisation is often presented as a politically neutral and socially beneficial approach to achieve urban sustainability goals but the emphasis on data gathering and algorithmic analysis and decision-making
The aim of this chapter is twofold. First, it deliberates the insufficiency of the ethnically loaded hyphenated identity of ‘Euro-Turks’ in defining the diverse diasporic community of Turkey’s citizens and/or their descendants in Europe. Second, it lays out the advantages and disadvantages of using the Türkiyeli concept as an alternative to the hyphenated identity Euro-Turks, which allows peoples
Background: Head computed tomography (CT) is a guideline recommended method to predict functional outcome after cardiac arrest (CA), but standardized criteria for evaluation are lacking. To date, no prospective trial has systematically validated methods for diagnosing hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) on CT after CA. We present a protocol for validation of pre-specified radiological criteria
Lung transplantation is currently the only option for patients with end-stage respiratory diseases, but owing to various complications and adverse effects of the treatment in combination with the increasing demand for and limited access to donor organs, new strategies are needed. Recent advances in materials science, culture techniques, cell-phenotyping and isolation techniques, bioreactor enginee
The US-Japan alliance established over seventy years ago is typically described by leaders on both sides as the ‘cornerstone of peace and security in East Asia.’ While China and North Korea may not share this positive view of the impact of the alliance on the region, the fact is that few alliances in modern international relations rival the US-Japan one in terms of durability, integration and infl
Combinations of theology and anthropology have been criticized for losing track of what theology ought to be about. Yet this loss might be precisely what enables scholars to understand political practices which point towards that which escapes both the theological and the anthropological grasp—a pointer which could be crucial to fashion solidarities that connect faiths in the pursuit of justice.
Introduction. Recently, more attention is being paid to the drug-induced liver injury (DILI) as a consequence of the tuberculos is treatment and the need for new medicine is emphasized. The use of isoniazid and rifampicin has a potentiating effect, which increases the risk of substancial liver damage. In turn, systemic accumulation of toxic metabolites leads to negative changes in various organs,
Listening in public diplomacy is a rather new topic in academic discussions. Early public diplomacy scholarship was dominated, and in large degree continues to be dominated, by a focus on crafting messages and influencing. The more recent focus on relationship management and collaborative public diplomacy allowed for discussions about another role for listening. Yet, as some scholars pointed out,
Popular Abstract in Swedish POPULÄRVETENSKAPLIG SAMMANFATTNING (Popularized summary in Swedish) Monoaminer Monoaminer såsom serotonin, dopamin, noradrenalin, adrenalin och histamin är alla signalsubstanser syntetiserade från enkla aminosyror. Nervceller som innehåller monoaminer är anatomiskt lokaliserade till hjärnstammen och förlängda märgen. Härifrån försörjer de resten av storhjärnan samt ryIn the present study, the mRNA encoding the serotonin transporter (5-HTT) and two isoforms of the vesicular monoamine transporters (VMAT1 and VMAT2) have been mapped in the rat throughout gestation and early postnatal development using in situ hybridization, RT PCR and immunohistochemistry. 5-HTT mRNA was found in serotonergic neurons and VMAT2 mRNA in all monoaminergic neurons from early gestatio
