We discuss instrumentalism as a component of the social changes that accompanied the second industrial revolution, following particularly the case of Germany. These changes constituted a departure from the Enlightenment tradition of natural philosophers towards a new approach to knowledge. We claim that instrumentalism cannot be separated from the disciplining of science that produced the sciences

Photo-induced dynamics of electronic processes are driven by the coupling between electronic and nuclear degrees of freedom. Here, we construct one- and two-dimensional organic-inorganic tin halides to investigate how dimensionality controls exciton-phonon coupling and exciton self-trapping. The results show that a one-dimensional system has strong exciton-phonon coupling leading to excitation-ind

This commentary re-evaluates the study by Makó et al. which reconstructs dust accumulation rates from loess–paleosol sequences in the Carpathian Basin. Several methodological and factual issues substantially limit the reliability of their interpretations. The study reports linear sedimentation rates (mm a−1) as mass accumulation rates (MARs) without accounting for bulk density, rendering their val

Med socialt arbete i hälso- och sjukvård som exempel menar vi i egenskap av disputerade socialarbetare att ett stärkt socialt arbete i vården kan bana väg för en samhällsutveckling där de sociala aspekterna av hälsa tas på större allvar än idag. Vi måste omsätta vetskapen om att jämlikhet och hälsa hänger samman i konkret praktik. Vi argumenterar för att detta i och med klimatkrisen kräver att vi

Purpose: Direct laryngoscopy (DL) is the standard technique for endotracheal intubation. Video-assisted laryngoscopy (VL) has emerged as an alternative, particularly for difficult airway management. Nevertheless, DL and VL have not been systematically compared for simulation-based endotracheal intubation by inexperienced operators. Method: A prospective, randomized cross-over study was carried out

Highly insulated external wall assemblies are commonly employed to enhance building energy performance. However, research indicates that these assemblies may lead to moisture-related issues, such as mould growth. Recent studies suggest that the use of highly hygroscopic insulation materials, owing to their higher moisture buffering value, may mitigate relative humidity levels and consequently the

Det var en ovanligt omtumlande period i europeisk historia, skiftet mellan 1980- och 1990-tal. Kalla krigets stela ordning rämnade, Berlinmuren föll, Tyskland enades och det sovjetiska imperiet knakade betänkligt i fogarna. Parallellt fördjupades och intensifierades den västeuropeiska integrationen under de dynamiska Delorskommissionernas ledning: Enhetsakten hade trätt i kraft 1987 och 1992 skull

One of the most important travelers of the 18th century was Jakob JonasBjörnståhl. From a young age, he aspired to reach prominence in academiccircles. Greek, Latin, and various Middle Eastern languages were part ofhis studies from the outset, and he distinguished himself by his enthusiasm,thirst for knowledge, and ability to quickly master diverse subjects, alongwith his encyclopedic education.

BACKGROUND: Tumour deposits are an important prognostic factor in colorectal cancer. In tumour node metastasis (TNM)8, the definition became stricter as TNM7's previous requirement for absence of lymphatic tissue was expanded to also include nerve and vascular tissue. TNM8 has been criticised for its limited prognostic value. This study aimed to compare prognostic differences for patients with col

Given that the climate emergency is accelerating, transformative climate action becomes increasingly urgent. Considering social and fairness implications of climate action is critical to avoid widening inequalities and public opposition. The just transitions (JT) and sustainable welfare/eco-social policy (SW/ESP) literatures both address social and fairness issues related to climate action. Howeve
