To plan for a sustainable transportation network, we need to understand the values connected to existing structures. In the history of car dependency and petroculture, the promise of speed is everywhere. Through a frame analysis focusing on contestation, this paper examines values connected to fossil fuel infrastructure. Specifically, the paper interrogates the plans to construct a highway on the
The roundtable brings together four authors, and a former journal editor, from the recent JCMS 20th Anniversary Symposium and forthcoming Cooperation and Conflict Anniversary Special Issue to discuss: What does the Arrival of planetary politics tell us about the European Union and normative power in the planetary organic crisis?Ian Manners provides a reflection and prospective intervention on the
Adsorption onto chromium surfaces during heat treatment (65–68°C) of β-lactoglobulin A and B in phosphate buffer, pH 6.88, was investigated byin situellipsometry. Thermal unfolding andin situheat-induced aggregation under the same conditions were studied by differential scanning calorimetry and dynamic light scattering, respectively. A lag phase was observed for buildup of the thickness of th
Focusing on mounting challenges to agro-industrial capitals posed by emerging infectious diseases, this paper revisits longstanding debates in critical agrarian studies scrutinizing the role of turnover time. Analyzing Norway and Denmark's poultry industries' recent confrontations with avian influenza, and by paying close attention to the questions of temporality and disaggregating the agency of c
IntroductionPancreatic cancer has a low survival. The aim of this study was to analyze the role of tumor location on perioperative outcome and survival.MethodData on all patients with resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) identified in the Swedish National Pancreatic and Periampullary Cancer Registry 2010-2020 were included. Tumor locations in the head, body and tail were compared. A mu
This article explores the transformational potential of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly generative AI (genAI) - large language models (LLMs), chatbots, and AI-driven smart assistants yet to emerge - to reshape human cognition, memory, and creativity. First, the paper investigates the potential of genAI tools to enable a new form of human-computer co-remembering, based on prompting rathe
There are ongoing questions about the most effective wavelength for photobiomodulation (PBM) on major salivary glands due to the specific anatomical location and unique optical properties of the tissues surrounding the glands. The aim of this study was to analyze the photon propagation in the major salivary glands region of humans and rats using Monte Carlo (MC) stochastic simulation. Phantoms wer
Prostate cancer (PCa) incidence has steadily increased in Sweden, more steeply in the mid-1990s caused by increased opportunistic prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing. Tallness, normal weight, and non-smoking are associated with more PSA testing, which increases detection of low-risk and localised PCa. We investigated time trends of height, body mass index (BMI), and smoking with PCa risk in 17
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder marked by β-amyloid (βA) accumulation, neuroinflammation, excessive synaptic pruning, and cognitive decline. Despite extensive research, effective treatments remain elusive. Here, we identify potassium channel-interacting protein 3 (KChIP3) as a key driver of AD pathology using the 5XFAD mouse model. KChIP3 levels were significan
According to Jon Elster, mechanisms are frequently occurring and easily recognizable causal patterns that are triggered under generally unknown conditions or with indeterminate consequences. In the absence of laws, moreover, mechanisms provide explanations. In this paper I argue that Elster’s view has difficulties with progressing knowledge. Normally, filling in the causal picture without revising
This paper describes the research stimulated by a fundamental shift that is occurring in the manufacture and marketing of aero engines for commercial and defence purposes, away from the selling of products to the provision of services. This research was undertaken in an aerospace company, which designs and manufactures aero engines and also offers contracts, under which it remains responsible for
