The notion of the "adjacent possible'' has been advanced to theorize the generation of novelty across many different research domains. This study is an attempt to examine in what way the notion can be made empirically useful for innovation studies. A theoretical framework is construed based on the notion of innovation as a search process where knowledge is recombined to discover the adjacent possi
Rapid and adaptable diagnostic capabilities are of great importance in the face of emerging infectious diseases. In an outbreak, timely establishment of diagnostic routines is crucial to identifying cases and preventing the spread of the disease, especially when faced with high-consequence pathogens. In this article, we describe a multiagency exercise including the rapid deployment and diagnostic
Economists have debated the issue of state intervention in the economic process in capitalist economies intensively for decades. Often, however, without considering the effects of state intervention on entrepreneurship. In this paper we undertake a critical analysis of the institutionalist theory of state intervention developed by Ha-Joon Chang. He identifies two key roles for the state in facilit
Objective: Secundum atrial septal defect (ASD II) is a common congenital heart defect, and interatrial communications among preterm children is even more common. The objective of this study was to calculate the incidence of ASD II in children, with assessment to gestational age at birth. Further, to assess maternal, prenatal and postnatal risk factors associated with ASD II among children of diffe
The female sex pheromone composition and the male electro-physiological response with respect to the three main sex pheromone components, (Z)-5-decenyl acetate, (Z)-7-dodecenyl acetate, and (Z)-9-tetradecenyl acetate, were investigated in populations of Agrotis segetum from Armenia and Bulgaria. The percentage composition of the female-produced pheromone was 1:52:47 and 1:42:57 for the respective
Data on malignancy in patients with collagenous colitis (CC) is scarce. We aimed to determine the incidence of cancers in patients with CC. In a two-stages, observational study, data on cancers in patients diagnosed with CC during 2000-2015, were collected from two cohorts. The risk was calculated according to the age-standardized rate for the first cohort and according to the standardized inciden
To ease railway traffic between countries in Europe, EU have decided that a new common signalling system should be implemented. This new signalling system is ERTMS, which is a shortening for European Rail Traffic Management System. Beside to ease traffic between countries, ERTMS can improve the level of safety and increase capacity on the railway network. The implementation of ERTMS amount a major
Aims Inflammatory markers are established risk factors for atrial fibrillation (AF), but the role of autoimmune diseases is unknown. The aim of the study was to examine the association between coeliac disease (CD) and AF in a large cohort of patients with biopsy-verified CD. Methods and results We identified 28 637 patients with CD through biopsy reports (defined as Marsh 3: villous atrophy) from
