This paper deals with the enactment of power in and through a sharing economy business model. The objective of research is to understand business models as a kind of narrative performance that mobilise labour, capital and users on a startup platform within adventure tourism. The paper elaborate on the dynamics between performances and power in terms of how the narratives performed by the platform

Published meta-analyses indicate significant but inconsistent incident type-2 diabetes(T2D)-dietary glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) risk ratios or risk relations (RR). It is nowover a decade ago that a published meta-analysis used a predefined standard to identify validstudies. Considering valid studies only, and using random effects dose-response meta-analysis(DRM) while withdrawing sp

In response to the 2013 Update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics (EPPSU), the Future Circular Collider (FCC) study was launched as a world-wide international collaboration hosted by CERN. The FCC study covered an energy-frontier hadron collider (FCC-hh), a highest-luminosity high-energy lepton collider (FCC-ee), the corresponding 100 km tunnel infrastructure, as well as the physics opp

Shrunken Pore Syndrome was defined in 2015 and is characterised by the glomerular filtration of 5-40 kDa molecules being selectively decreased compared to that of molecules <0.2 kDa, e.g. water and creatinine. The diagnose is based upon identification of a decreased eGFRcystatin C/eGFRcreatinine ratio, and ratios -< 0.6 or 0.7 have most often been used to identify the diagnose. The mortality is st

Future internet-of-things systems need to be able to combine heterogeneous services and support weak connectivity. In this paper, we introduce ComPOS, a new domain-specific language for composing services in IoT systems. We show how Maria, a bird watcher, can use ComPOS to build a system that allows her to spy on birds in the garden while she is not at home. We demonstrate how ComPOS handles the u

The foreign colleagues answer the following questions: Does the current regulation of the standard employment relationship create poverty in your country? Which are the kinds of non-standard employment contracts (i.e. fixed-term contracts, part-time, etc.) that create fragility and poverty? Does the introduction of new technologies (digital platforms, smart work, etc.) contribute to the increase o

BACKGROUND: Data regarding high-sensitivity troponin concentrations in patients presenting to the emergency department with symptoms suggestive of myocardial infarction may be useful in determining the probability of myocardial infarction and subsequent 30-day outcomes. METHODS: In 15 international cohorts of patients presenting to the emergency department with symptoms suggestive of myocardial in

BAY 94-9027 is an extended-half-life, recombinant factor VIII (rFVIII) product conjugated with a 60-kDa branched polyethylene glycol (PEG) molecule indicated for use in previously treated patients (aged ≥ 12 years) with hemophilia A. This randomized, open-label, two-way crossover study compared the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BAY 94-9027 and rFVIII Fc fusion protein (rFVIIIFc) in patients with hemoph

Studies on the interaction between acceptance and pain-related processes after neck trauma are to our knowledge sparse and such treatment strategies are rarely incorporated in management and treatment of posttraumatic neck pain. Thus, the aim of the present study is to investigate how acceptance relates to persistent pain in patients after neck trauma, when controlling for the influence of other p

The morphology and function of the arteries can be directly measured using different established methods. This prospective cohort study aimed to translate 2 of these, aortic pulse wave velocity (aPWV) and carotid intima–media thickness (cIMT), into a combined Vascular Aging Index (VAI) and then evaluate the predictive power of aPWV, cIMT, and VAI. Patients (n = 2718) were included from the cardiov

Background: In typical infant development, parents and their children jointly contribute to establishing frequent episodes of joint attention that boost language acquisition and shape social cognition. Here we used novel live eye-tracking technology to evaluate the degree to which autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is related to reduced responding to others’ joint attention bids in infancy (RJA) and t

Atmospheric deposition is a source of inorganic nutrients and organic matter to the ocean, and can favor the growth of some planktonic species over others according to their nutrient requirements. Atmospheric inputs from natural and anthropogenic sources are nowadays increasing due to desertification and industrialization, respectively. While the impact of mineral dust (mainly from the Saharan des

We attribute the mechanism of "lasing" action of nitrogen ions pumped by femtosecond IR pulses to a laser without inversion scheme. Numerical simulations reproduce well the temporal dynamics and pressure dependence of the emission.

Research on the effects of climate change in the marine environment continues to accelerate, yet we know little about the effects of multiple climate drivers in more complex, ecologically relevant settings - especially in sub-tropical and tropical systems. In marine ecosystems, climate change (warming and freshening from land run-off) will increase water column stratification which is favorable fo
