Comparison of historical medical spending patterns among the BRICS and G7

OBJECTIVE: The past few decades have been marked by a bold increase in national health spending across the globe. Rather successful health reforms in leading emerging markets such as BRICS reveal a reshaping of their medical care-related expenditures. There is a scarcity of evidence explaining differences in long-term medical spending patterns between top ranked G7 traditional welfare economies an

The sensitivity of ginkgo leaf unfolding to the temperature and photoperiod decreases with increasing elevation

Climate change substantially affects plant phenology, resulting in earlier vegetation onset across temperate and boreal regions. Phenological shifts caused by warming may alter species interactions across trophic levels because of species-specific responses, and influence the reproductive success of dioecious species if the phenological sensitivity to warming (ST) differs between genders. We used

Co-regulation of temperature and moisture in the irrigated agricultural ecosystem productivity

Agroecosystem photosynthesis is key to coping with global climate change. In farmland where human activities are highly involved, the interaction between environmental factors and their influences on gross primary productivity (GPP) are insufficiently understood. Particularly, the irrigation and mulching in water-saving agriculture can alter the crop responses to environmental change. Based on edd

A dataset of lake-catchment characteristics for the Tibetan Plateau

The management and conservation of lakes should be conducted in the context of catchments because lakes collect water and materials from their upstream catchments. Thus, the datasets of catchment-level characteristics are essential for limnology studies. Lakes are widely spread on the Tibetan Plateau (TP), with a total lake area exceeding 50000km2, accounting for more than half of the total lake a

Polyamines are involved in the regulation of S phase and DNA synthesis

Popular Abstract in Swedish För att celler ska kunna växa och dela sig behöver de många olika ämnen, till exempel vitaminer, mineraler och polyaminer. Polyaminer finns i alla celler och de krävs för att cellerna ska kunna dela eller specialisera sig. Cellerna kan både själva tillverka polyaminer och ta upp dem från omgivningen. I mänskliga celler finns framför allt de tre polyaminerna putrescin, sOur research group has previously shown that treatment with the polyamine biosynthesis inhibitors a-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) or amidinoindan-1-one 2´-amidinohydrazone (CGP 48664) inhibited S phase progression before any other cell cycle phase was affected. This study was undertaken to further investigate the role of polyamines in the regulation of S phase progression and DNA synthesis. I hav

To shake or not to shake : 13 C-based evidence on anaerobic methane oxidation in paddy soil

The anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) removes most of the biologically produced methane (CH 4 ) from marine ecosystems before it enters the atmosphere and thus mitigates greenhouse gas emissions. As compared to marine environments, surprisingly little is known about the role of AOM in terrestrial ecosystems. Particularly, how AOM controls the CH 4 budget of paddy soils is unexplored, partly

Expression and activity of critical digestive enzymes during early larval development of the veined rapa whelk, Rapana venosa (Valenciennes, 1846)

Metamorphosis is a vital developmental event in the life cycle of molluscs and involves extensive morphological and physiological changes. Remodeling of the digestive system is suggested to occur anticipatorily to enable the larva to shift its diet (from filter feeding on microalgae to feeding on small bivalves) after metamorphosis. Changes in the profiles and activities of digestive enzymes, the

Temperature adaptation of soil microbial respiration in alpine, boreal and tropical soils : An application of the square root (Ratkowsky) model

Warming is expected to stimulate soil microbial respiration triggering a positive soil carbon-climate feedback loop while a consensus remains elusive regarding the magnitude of this feedback. This is partly due to our limited understanding of the temperature-adaptive response of soil microbial respiration, especially over broad climatic scales. We used the square root (Ratkowsky) model to calculat

Getting a Spot on the Street: : Street Vendors’ Access to Public Space in Bogotá, Colombia.

Is it truly the "end" of public space? This handbook presents evidence that the answer is "no". In cities in different parts of the world, people still use public space to pursue activities of their choice.The book is divided into seven sections. The first section presents three emerging types of public space. Each of the subsequent five sections focuses on a type of activity: recreation, commerce

Environmental controls on marine ecosystem recovery following mass extinctions, with an example from the Early Triassic

The recovery of marine ecosystems following a mass extinction event involves an extended interval of increasing biotic diversity and ecosystem complexity. The pace of recovery may be controlled by intrinsic ecosystem or extrinsic environmental factors. Here, we present an analysis of changes in marine conditions following the end-Permian mass extinction with the objective of evaluating the role of

Genredigering - ett nytt sätt att diskriminera på?

Efter att det blev känt att en kinesisk forskare hade genredigerat två embryon, blev genredigering ett mycket omtalat ämne runt om i världen. Händelsen ledde till stora diskussioner på olika nivåer och ledde till många rekommendationer kring de etiska avgränsningar som bör göras. Vetenskapen går ständigt framåt och därför är det av betydelse att göra en omfattande analys av hur rättsläget inom g

Referential iconicity in music and speech within and across sensory modalities

Musical meaning is multifaceted: both highly sensory and yet often abstract, able to cross cultural boundaries and yet embedded in specific traditions. For the most part it is not denotational (Monelle, 1991). Nevertheless, in “programmatic music”, musical themes are intended to refer to worldly objects and events on the basis of iconic (and indexical) grounds. Such non-arbitrariness of the sound-

How is the use of AI in auditing perceived by auditors in social media ?

Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to critically evaluate posts/comments collected from social media on AI auditing to analyze how auditors perceive the application of AI in the auditing industry currently. Methodology: We did qualitative research using content analysis to conduct our research. We scraped posts/comments from Reddit, Quora, and Weibo for information collection purposes. We used

Adherence to the EAT-Lancet reference diet and risk of type 2 diabetes, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, and their co-occurrence

Background and aims: The EAT-Lancet Commission proposed a healthy dietary pattern to prevent diet-related diseases while promoting planetary sustainability, but little is known regarding its associations with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), both of which are highly prevalent and frequently co-exist. We aimed to assess association of this
