This chapter critically examines the pervasive belief that economic progress naturally leads to increased leisure time. While early 20th-century thinkers like John Maynard Keynes predicted a future of abundant free time driven by productivity gains, work hours in many high-income countries have stagnated or increased since the 1980s. The chapter argues that this paradox is not the result of indivi
Tudo o que comemos gera impactos ambientais: do uso do solo na lavoura, passando pelo transporte, processamento, consumo e descarte de embalagens e resíduos. Entender esse impacto ambiental da alimentação é complexo, mas já existem informações suficientes para orientar decisões mais bem informadas.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate psychometric properties of newly developed hand and wrist proprioception tests.DESIGN: Cross-sectional and test-retest comparisons.SUBJECTS/PATIENTS: Twenty-six individuals (mean age 40 years) with wrist disability (> 3 months) due to traumatic injury or general instability.METHODS: Pointing acuity (with eyes open and closed), active joint position sense (in extension, flexi
BackgroundUmbilical cord arterial pH (UApH) is the most objective measurement of the metabolic condition of the infant at birth. However, studies have identified changes in UApH with advancing gestational age, as there is limited data examining UApH changes with different modes of birth. The objective was to establish reference values for UApH according to mode of birth and to investigate the infl
Introduction: Implementing new treatment regimens entails a learning phase with a concomitant risk of suboptimal results. High caseload has generally been shown to improve results in complex surgical procedures. This study aimed to evaluate results of Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) and Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (IP), given as Early Postoperative Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (EPIC) or Hyperthermic
PURPOSE – Comparative studies demonstrate that patients who use electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePROs) experience better outcomes; however, research comparing ePRO designs to determine optimal strategies for routine clinical practice is limited. We aimed to determine the impact of a novel checkbox format for presenting items in a postoperative symptom-assessment ePRO tool.METHODS – Patients
We revisit the problem of characterizing cyclic elements for the shift operator in a broad class of radial growth spaces of holomorphic functions on the unit disk, focusing on functions of finite Nevanlinna characteristic. We provide results in the range of Dini regular weights, and in the regime of logarithmic integral divergence. Our proofs are largely constructive and allow for substantial simp
Non-representational and materialist theories have enabled geographers to understand subjectivity as something that is interwoven with intimate and dynamic spaces. While previous work has questioned the political efficacy of integrating subjectivity into the environment, this paper traces a ‘new’ problem to the philosophical naturalism of early non-representational work where the subject was const
Sahej Rahal’s 2022 exhibition ANCESTORS presented findings from an alleged archaeological site to narrate an alien temporality inside the confines of the history museum. We reflect on how the exhibition demonstrates that encounters with appropriately narrated objects constitute a sort of “temporal heist,” forcing its observers to reconsider their present through a new temporality. By articulating
Responding to ideas about ‘geologizing the social’ (Clark and Gunaratnam 2017. “Earthing the Anthropos? From ‘Socializing the Anthropocene’ to Geologizing the Social.” Journal of Social Theory 20 (1): 146–163. doi:10.1177/1368431016661337), this conceptual paper reflects on the requirements for reconsidering the idea of the human in the Anthropocene context. It does so by parsing the Anthropocene
