The effects of development assistance on sexual and reproductive health services in low- and lower-middle-income countries : a cross-country panel data analysis

Using data on 119 low- and lower-middle-income countries from 2002 to 2020, we fit fixed-effects (FE) models to evaluate the impacts of three types of official development assistance (ODA) on access to three types of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services: access to skilled birth attendance, access to modern contraceptives and coverage of antiretroviral therapies against HIV/AIDS. The resul

Impaired SARS-CoV-2 vaccine responsiveness is not associated with subclinical atherosclerosis or cardiovascular disease

AIMS: Although age-related immune deterioration has been implicated as a mechanistic contributor to cardiovascular disease (CVD), evidence for an impairment of adaptive immune function in individuals with clinically verified presence of atherosclerosis is lacking.METHODS AND RESULTS: To test the association between atherosclerosis and immune function, we evaluated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine responsiveness

Long-term migration of monoblock vs modular design in uncemented total knee arthroplasty : a secondary report of a randomized trial using radiostereometric analysis

Background and purpose — Backside wear of the polyethylene insert in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has been described to produce clinically significant levels of polyethylene debris, which can lead to aseptic loosening and osteolysis. Monoblock design eliminates backside wear of the polyethylene and therefore could improve long-term fixation. This randomized clinical trial (RCT) using radiostereom

Shared Battlegrounds: War at the Crossroads of Environmental History and the History of Science

In recent years, the environmental impact of warfare has made front-page news. Discussions about “ecocide”—a term first proposed in 1970 by Yale biologist Arthur W. Galston to describe the large-scale destruction of ecosystems during the Vietnam War—have come into the spotlight. The preparation and conduct of war, along with the social, economic, and scientific reorganisation that accompany it, of

Disorders of Glycosylation

The congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) comprise a large and growing family of genetic disorders, characterized by hypoglycosylation of multiple glycoconjugates. Normal glycosylation requires a large number of enzymes and associated proteins acting in sequence to modify proteins and lipids by the addition of oligosaccharide side chains. This process is essential for normal development and

Boyle Lecture 2025—Science, Technology, Theology, and Spirituality: A Necessary Partnership?

The 2025 Boyle Lecture explores the partnership between science, technology, theology, and spirituality in addressing contemporary challenges. Reflecting on historical and modern dynamics, it emphasizes the need for transdisciplinary collaboration to avoid cultural poverty and handle the current polycrisis in a world prone to polarization, populism, protectionism, post-truth, and patriarchy. The l

Decolonizing Truth : Lessons from Palestine

This essay reflects on the notions of objectivity and truth. Taking Palestine as an urgent political call and a precondition for a decolonial future, it argues that in the context of genocidal violence and the system-atic distortion of reality, objectivity and truth cannot be dismissed merely as tools of oppression. Instead, approaching them as counter-narratives grounded in embodied experiences t

A Road Map for Integrating Academic Skills in a Bachelor’s Programme

Academic skills such as reading, writing, critical thinking and information literacy are foundational to university-level learning. However, although students often have a certain level of academic literacy on arrival, their skills do not necessarily match the context-specific requirements of higher education and often need to be explicitly taught. In contrast to ad hoc and isolated interventions,

Hollywood unsuccessfully copying European Cinema: A comparative remake study of The Intouchables and The Upside

This comparative study aims to analyze the ways Hollywood producers and filmmakers turn European films into ones of their own and why they are often reflected upon as being worse than its predecessors. The analysis primarily uses the French film The Intouchables (2011) and its Hollywood remake, The Upside (2017) as a way to explore this. This study furthermore investigates the reasons behind this

När börden och äran står på spel : genealogiska narrativ i Vita illustrissimi herois Ponti de la Gardie (1690)

This study investigates, through the lens of the humanistic vita with its historiobiographical structure, how Claes Örnhielm, in Vita Ponti de la Gardie, formulates a systematic response to contemporary accusations concerning the legitimacy of the De la Gardie family’s noble origins. Through an integrated examination of the work’s frontispiece, genealogical diagram, textual genealogy and wider nar

Sacred Spectacle: Spiritual Development, Religious Motifs, and Transcendental Style in Contemporary Musical Cinema

This study explores how contemporary musical cinema might employ audio-visual strategies and religious motifs in the depiction of character development, focusing on the examination of Les Misérables (2012), The Greatest Showman (2017), and The Color Purple (2023). By applying the ritual theories of Ronald Grimes, Christine Bell, and Victor Turner, the musicals are viewed from the perspective of ri
