The article examines the relationship between third-party countermeasures and the Security Council's powers to adopt measures under Chapter vii of the United Nations Charter in response to breaches of obligations erga omnes. It is shown that the resort to third-party countermeasures is neither precluded nor subject to limitations as a result of the relationship to the Security Council's Chapter vi

Purpose: The study aimed to investigate expression of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related proteins and phenotypes during breast cancer progression and to relate this to patient outcome. Methods: Protein expression patterns of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, twist, and vimentin were examined by immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples from primary tumors (PTs) (n = 41

Background: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer form, and one first-line treatment is surgical excision. Complete excision is vital to minimize risk of recurrence. Studies on occurrence of incomplete excisions have given diverse results and seldom include large populations from a dermatological setting. Objectives: The rate of positive surgical margins in primary surgery of B

Background: In emergency department (ED) chest pain patients, it is believed that the diagnostic accuracy of the electrocardiogram (ECG) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is higher during ongoing than abated chest pain. Objectives: We compared patient characteristics and the diagnostic performance of the ECG in ED patients presenting with ongoing, vs. abated, chest pain. Methods: In total, 1132 un

Purpose: Three-dimensional, time-resolved blood flow measurement (4D-flow) is a powerful research and clinical tool, but improved resolution and scan times are needed. Therefore, this study aims to (1) present a postprocessing framework for optimization-driven simulation-based flow imaging, called 4D-flow High-resolution Imaging with a priori Knowledge Incorporating the Navier-Stokes equations and

We have made a systematic combined quantum mechanical and molecular mechanical (QM/MM) investigation of possible structures of the N2 bound state of nitrogenase. We assume that N2 is immediately protonated to a N2H2 state, thereby avoiding the problem of determining the position of the protons in the cluster. We have systematically studied both end-on and side-on structures, as well as both HNNH a

The synthesis of a new unsymmetrical PCN ligand bearing tert-butyl groups on the phosphorus atom and isopropyl groups on the nitrogen donor atom is presented. It reacts with the commercially available Ni(DME)Br2 precursor to offer the corresponding t-BuPCNi-Pr pincer nickel bromide complex 1 together with a paramagnetic species, which was characterized as a tetrahedral nickel complex. Complex 1 re

Memory, Intermediality, and Literature investigates how selected literary works use intermedial strategies to represent and perform cultural memory. Drawing on the theoretical perspectives of cultural memory studies, this engaging, reader-friendly monograph examines new materialism and intermediality studies, analyzying works by Alexander Kluge, W.G. Sebald, Jonathan Safran Foer, Anne Carson, Mett

Abstract på danska:Artiklen læser det eksperimentende bog-værk S. (2013), af Doug Dorst og J.J. Abrams, som en refleksion over, og et udtryk for den trykte romans forandrede status i en digital tidsalder. Som en eksperimenterende roman med gulnede sider og håndskrift i marginen synes S. at reflektere en materiel vending i literaturen. Den idealiserer bogmediet som et rum for materialitet og intimiThis article reads J. J. Abrams and Doug Dorst's S. (2013) as a reflection of the changing status and function of the printed novel in the digital age. As an experimental novel with yellowing pages and handwriting in the margins, S. appears to reflect a “material turn” in literature. It celebrates the book as a space of intimacy and memory, positioned in opposition to new digital media. However, t

Literary culture has recently become aware of the printed book as an object and a medium. The spread of new media results in a situation, where the book can no longer be taken for granted and therefore, it requires new cultural and commercial value. The article investigates how the changing status and function of the printed book in contemporary culture is reflected in two recent experimental nove

Artiklen sætter fokus på en nylig materiel vending i litteraturen; en ny opmærksomhed mod litteraturens materielle diensioner som præger både litteraturkritikken olitteraturen selv. Med udgangspunkt i litterære materialitetsteorier af bl.a. Bill Brown og N. Katherine Hayles undersøger jeg, hvordan denne tendens kommer til udtryk i to værker, Anne Carsons Nox og Oscar K.s Af Olafur Kjartanssons opt

The article discusses a tendency towards “media nostalgia” in contemporary experimental literary works.Authors such as Jonathan Safran Foer, Reif Larsen, Anne Carson, Steven Hall, Umberto Eco, J.J. Abramsand Doug Dorst include images, drawing and photographs in their works, or they experiment with the visualand material qualities of writing and the book. The tendency can be explained as a reflecti

This article discusses a ‘material turn’ in contemporary literature in relation to two recent works: Anne Carson’s NOX (2009) and Oscar K’s Af Olafur Kjartanssons optegnelser om den skjulte skrift (2011). Both works experiment with the medium of the book and modes of writing and print. They confront the book with other media and materials such as photographs, fragments of letters, and handwritten
