This essay demonstrates that the origin of modern Russian national conservatism lies in the Soviet underground anti-communist and anti-liberal movement, which developed under the strong influence of the theorists of integral traditionalism, fascism, and the Nouvelle Droite. Vladimir Putin's political ontology, based on the idea of the tragedy of Russia and Europe caused by the weakening of their s
A brief introduction to eulophid wasps (Chalcidoidea: Eulophidae).
This study investigates the disintegrative impact of Brexit on the European Union’s institutional framework. Disintegration may occur in the form of other member states leaving the union. Still, it can also manifest in terms of institutional reform in the direction of increased intergovernmentalism and executive dominance, resulting in a renationalization of the EU’s policymaking competences. The
Bromelain, a proteolytic enzyme isolated from pineapple, is renowned for its therapeutic applications. The present work was designed to investigate the anti-microbial potential of bromelain against dental plaque-causing microbes via in silico and in vitro studies. Firstly, in silico study was conducted where docking between bromelain and eight microbial growthpromoting proteins: Third fibronectin
Certified randomness guaranteed to be unpredictable by adversaries is central to information security. The fundamental randomness inherent in quantum physics makes certification possible from devices that are only weakly characterized, i.e., requiring little trust in their implementation. It was recently shown that the amount of certifiable randomness can be improved using the so-called entropy ac
Background and Purpose Plaque rupture is the underlying cause of most cardiovascular events, such as stroke and myocardial infarction. The co-stimulatory molecule LIGHT (tumor necrosis factor superfamily member 14, TNFSF14) has been detected in foam cell-rich regions of atherosclerotic plaques, but whether it has a role in plaque stability is not known. This study investigates the association betw
Proton Beam Therapy (PBT) is an increasingly utilised modality for treating tumours by utilising the physical properties of accelerated proton beams. This review explores the development of PBT, its dosimetric advantages over conventional x-ray-based radiotherapy, and the rationale behind its use in paediatric oncology whilst simultaneously considering the various challenges associated with its de
Stochastic texture filtering (STF) has re-emerged as a technique that can bring down the cost of texture filtering of advanced texture compression methods, e.g., neural texture compression. However, during texture magnification, the swapped order of filtering and shading with STF can result in aliasing. The inability to smoothly interpolate material properties stored in textures, such as surface n
The real-time interface chemistry between the lithium cobalt oxide (LCO) working electrode and the LiClO4/propylene carbonate (PC) electrolyte is investigated during lithiation/delithiation using dip-and-pull ambient pressure photoelectron spectroscopy (APXPS). The APXPS results appear to exhibit the seldom discussed Co2+ state in the LCO structure, where the operando measurements indicate electro
ObjectiveTo compare speech outcomes in 4 groups of 5-year-olds with cleft of the hard and soft palate: with Robin sequence without additional conditions (RS−), with Robin sequence with additional conditions (RS+), without Robin sequence with additional conditions (CP+), and without Robin sequence without additional conditions (CP−).DesignRegistry-based cohort study.SettingRegional public care univ
Organizations are increasingly turning to sustainability-oriented innovation (SOI) to address pressing environmental and social challenges, yet implementation remains fraught with difficulties. Unlike incremental sustainability efforts, SOI embeds sustainability objectives into the core of innovation processes, encompassing products, services, and business models. This study investigates how the a
Purpose:The purpose of this study is to map different kinds of tensions in product innovation and investigate how top managers use communication to shape subordinates' attention and thereby respond to these tensions.Design/methodology/approach:This study adopted an embedded case study of four innovation centers within a Nordic multinational firm.Findings:This study identifies three kinds of tensio
Purpose: This study aims to understand the formal and informal practices of top managers as they seek to control product innovation processes and how the style of control used differs during development stages and gates. Design/methodology/approach: A qualitative in-depth case study was conducted at a multinational corporation (pseudonym: MEC). The authors examined 12 product innovation projects a
In panel data regression models, it is often not reasonable to expect all cross-sectional units to have identical responses to explanatory variables, or that all relevant variables have been properly accounted for. These concerns have recently motivated the use of interactive effects models with heterogeneous slopes. The workhorse of this literature is the common correlated effects approach, which
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of telemedicine-delivered diet and/or exercise interventions to prevent type 2 diabetes (T2D) in people at risk. Methods: Embase (via Ovid), Medline (via Ovid), Web of Science, CINAHL, Scopus and SciELO were searched from January 2010–December 2020 for intervention studies using a diet and/or exercise intervention delivered through telemedicine for T2D prev
Befrielsen av Auschwitz den 27 januari 1945 har blivit ett datum som är förknippat med minnet av förintelsen. Drygt 80 år efter att Röda armén tågade in i de läger som återfanns i och omkring den polska staden Oświęcim är behovet fortfarande stort att besvara frågor om vad som möjliggjorde genomförandet av förintelsen. Andra viktiga spörsmål handlar om på vilka sätt som de överlevande hanterade övThe liberation of Auschwitz on January 27, 1945, has become a date associated with the memory of the Holocaust. More than 80 years after the Red Army marched into the camps in and around the Polish city of Oświęcim, there is still a great need to answer questions about what made the Holocaust possible. Other important questions concern the ways in which the survivors handled the transition to a li
