Anti-Imperialism

Focusing on the period from 1870 to 1960, this chapter provides an overview of anarchist approaches to anti-imperialism, offering examples of collaborations, solidarities, antagonisms and syntheses between anarchists and anti-colonialists from across the British, Spanish, French and Portuguese colonial worlds and within the imperial metropoles in Europe. Alongside anti-colonial resistances to thes

“The Bomb Plot of Zurich” : Indian Nationalism, Italian Anarchism and the First World War

This essay explores the so-called ‘Bomb Plot of Zürich’, in which the Indian nationalists Virendranath Chattopadhyaya and Abdul Hafiz of the Indian Independence Committee collaborated with the German Foreign Office and a band of Swiss-based Italian anarchists led by Arcangelo Cavadini and Luigi Bertoni to smuggle German-manufactured bombs, weapons and poison into Switzerland and Italy in the summe

Race/Ethnicity and Gender Representation in Hematology and Oncology Editorial Boards : What is the State of Diversity?

Introduction: Women and underrepresented groups in medicine hold few academic leadership positions in the field of hematology/oncology. In this study, we assessed gender and race/ethnicity representation in editorial board positions in hematology/oncology journals. Materials and Methods: Editorial leadership board members from 60 major journals in hematology and oncology were reviewed; 54 journals

Exposure to hand-held vibrating tools and biomarkers of nerve injury in plasma : A population-based, observational study

Objectives To analyse potential biomarkers for vibration-induced nerve damage in a population-based, observational study. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Malmö Diet Cancer Study (MDCS), Malmö, Sweden. Participants In a subcohort of 3898 individuals (recruited 1991-1996) from MDCS (baseline examination in 28 449 individuals; collection of fasting blood samples in a cardiovascular subcohort

New insights into the disulfide stress response by the Bacillus subtilis Spx system at a single-cell level

Spx is a global transcriptional regulator that orchestrates the Bacillus subtilis response to disulfide stress. The YjbH (SpxH) protein adapts Spx for ClpXP-mediated degradation, playing a critical role in the regulation of the cellular Spx levels. Upon stress, YjbH forms aggregates by a yet unknown mechanism, resulting in increased Spx levels due to reduced proteolysis. Here, we studied how indiv

Growing Inwards : Densification and Ecosystem Services in Comprehensive Plans from Three Municipalities in Southern Sweden

This article analyses how urban densification, primarily in relation to ecosystem services, is addressed in comprehensive plans from three cities in southernmost Sweden: Malmö, Lund and Helsingborg. The aim was to investigate and problematise how the comprehensive plans articulate and negotiate how to build dense cities while preserving and enhancing ecosystem services. A qualitative content analy

Efficient buckling constrained topology optimization using reduced order modeling

We present an efficient computational approach to continuum topology optimization with linearized buckling constraints, using Reduced Order Models (ROM). A reanalysis technique is employed to generate basis vectors that subsequently are used to significantly reduce the size of the generalized eigenvalue problems. We demonstrate the efficacy of this approach by optimizing for stiffness with bucklin

Feminist LCAs : Finding leverage points for wellbeing within planetary boundaries

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies are valuable tools for identifying high impact processes and redesigning supply chains. However, LCAs have limits, in the sense that they offer insight into relative sustainability and don't question whether a product, or its use, is sustainable in absolute terms. In this intentionally provocative paper, you join Emma, a fictional average American 15-year-old, a

Semi-analytical analysis of high-brightness microbunched beam dynamics with collective and intrabeam scattering effects

The studies of incoherent single-particle and collective multi-particle effects are, in general, separated in accelerator beam dynamics in that the two dynamical phenomena involve quite different time scales. Recent experimental measurements indicate that in some parameter regime, the small-angle, multiple scattering effects within a high-brightness electron beam can have a strong influence on mic

Real-Time and Online Segmentation Multi-Target Tracking with Track Revival Re-Identification

The first online segmentation multi-target tracking algorithm with reported real-time speeds is presented. Based on the popular and fast bounding box based tracker SORT, our method called SORTS is able to utilize segmentations for tracking while keeping the real-time speeds. To handle occlusions, which neither SORT nor SORTS do, we also present SORTS+RReID, an optional extension which uses ReID ve

Telomere length in relation to colour polymorphism across life stages in the tawny owl

Telomere erosion has been proposed to be tightly associated with senescence, environmental stressors and life history trade-offs. How telomere dynamics vary across life stages and especially in relation to (heritable) phenotypic traits is still unclear. The tawny owl Strix aluco display a highly heritable melanin-based colour polymorphism, a grey and a brown morph, linked to several fitness traits

Risk Factors for Contra-Lateral Secondary Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury : A Systematic Review with Meta-Analysis

Background: The risk of sustaining a contra-lateral anterior cruciate ligament (C-ACL) injury after primary unilateral ACL injury is high. C-ACL injury often contributes to a further decline in function and quality of life, including failure to return to sport. There is, however, very limited knowledge about which risk factors that contribute to C-ACL injury. Objective: To systematically review in

Understanding conditions for path development after path exhaustion

This paper focuses on path development processes after a sudden path exhaustion. We analyse the decline, the closure and the attempts at the re-orientation of a forestry-based industry agglomeration in Southern Norway, located around the municipality of Hønefoss. In particular, this paper focuses on the Treklyngen holding company in Hønefoss. This paper explores how policy may be influenced by and

Identifying New Antimigraine Targets : Lessons from Molecular Biology

Primary headaches are one of the most common conditions; migraine being most prevalent. Recent work on the pathophysiology of migraine suggests a mismatch in the communication or tuning of the trigeminovascular system, leading to sensitization and the release of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). In the current Opinion, we use the up-to-date molecular understanding of mechanisms behind migrai

Party-system polarisation, legislative institutions and cabinet survival in 28 parliamentary democracies, 1945–2019

The resurgence of radical and populist parties has stimulated renewed discussions about the resilience of parliamentary democracy in Europe. This work contributes to this debate by analysing the extent to which positive parliamentarism, the prime minister’s parliamentary dissolution powers, the government’s power to table votes of confidence and the majority requirements for votes of no confidence

Rational Design of Bright Long Fluorescence Lifetime Dyad Fluorophores for Single Molecule Imaging and Detection

Increasing demand for detecting single molecules in challenging environments has raised the bar for the fluorophores used. To achieve better resolution and/or contrast in fluorescence microscopy, it is now essential to use bright and stable dyes with tailored photophysical properties. While long fluorescence lifetime fluorophores offer many advantages in time-resolved imaging, their inherently low

Terminally sialylated and fucosylated complex N-glycans are involved in the malignant behavior of high-grade glioma

Gliomas are the most common intracranial primary tumors, for which very few therapeutic options are available. The most malignant subtype is the glioblastoma, a disease associated with a 5-year survival rate lower than 5%. Given that research in glycobiology continues highlighting the role of glycans in tumor cell biology, it offers an interesting niche for the search of new therapeutic targets. I

The Mastigamoeba balamuthi genome and the nature of the free-living ancestor of Entamoeba

The transition of free-living organisms to parasitic organisms is a mysterious process that occurs in all major eukaryotic lineages. Parasites display seemingly unique features associated with their pathogenicity; however, it is important to distinguish ancestral preconditions to parasitism from truly new parasite-specific functions. Here, we sequenced the genome and transcriptome of anaerobic fre
