Stabilisation and resuscitation with intact cord circulation is feasible using a wide variety of approaches; a scoping review

Aim: This scoping review identified studies on approaches to intact cord resuscitation and/or stabilisation (ICR/S) for neonates delivered by Caesarean section (C-section). Methods: A systematic literature search was carried out using the PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane and CINAHL databases to identify papers published in English from inception to 14 November 2022. Results: We assessed 26

"I believe in Buddhism and Travelling'' : On Denoting Oneself a Lay Buddhist in Contemporary Taiwan

Buddhists are more frequent in urban than in rural Taiwan - this statistical discovery of the present volume leads to an investigation into the motivations of people who denote themselves as Buddhists. Nine biographical narrative interviews stand central to an analysis following Structural Hermeneutics - a sociological method applied for the first time in an Asian context.Guggenmos analyses why it

Scandalous Design : How Social Media Platforms’ Responses to Scandal Impacts Campaigns and Elections

Given the role of social media in the modern election, scholars should not only study how platforms function for political actors; we should also study how platforms function as political actors. This essay therefore introduces the concept of scandalous design, which refers to programmatic changes in how social media operate in response to scandal. On the one hand, scandals can encourage changes i

High-resolution δ13Corg chemostratigraphy links the Decorah impact structure and Winneshiek Konservat-Lagerstätte to the Darriwilian (Middle Ordovician) global peak influx of meteorites

The precise age of the Winneshiek Shale, a recently discovered Konservat-Lagerstätte located in a very unusual depositional setting inside the Decorah impact structure, has remained uncertain in the absence of biostratigraphically highly diagnostic fossils. This chemostratigraphical study, based on δ13Corg data from 36 drill core samples through the shale, shows that the age ranges from the upper

Human Flags - Scientists and Resource Politics in the Arctic

The Arctic is a popular place to do research. Many countries fund scientific research projects in the region, and international scientists are a considerable part of the Arctic population. Knowledge and expertise about the Arctic is no longer restricted to the Arctic states. Less controversial than flag planting at the North Pole and test drilling for oil, scientists and research stations are ofte

Ficolin-1 is present in a highly mobilizable subset of human neutrophil granules and associates with the cell surface after stimulation with fMLP

Ficolins are soluble molecules that bind carbohydrate present on the surface of microorganisms and function as recognition molecules in the lectin complement pathway. Three ficolins have been identified in humans: ficolin-1, ficolin-2, and ficolin-3. Ficolin-1 is synthesized in monocytes and type II alveolar epithelial cells. Ficolin-1 has been shown to be present in secretory granules of human ne

Wind turbines and seismic hazard : A state-of-the-art review

Wind energy is a rapidly growing field of renewable energy, and as such, intensive scientific and societal interest has been already attracted. Research on wind turbine structures has been mostly focused on the structural analysis, design and/or assessment of wind turbines mainly against normal (environmental) exposures while, so far, only marginal attention has been spent on considering extreme n

Volcanic influence on centennial to millennial Holocene Greenland temperature change

Solar variability has been hypothesized to be a major driver of North Atlantic millennial-scale climate variations through the Holocene along with orbitally induced insolation change. However, another important climate driver, volcanic forcing has generally been underestimated prior to the past 2,500 years partly owing to the lack of proper proxy temperature records. Here, we reconstruct seasonall

Identification of bacterial and fungal components in tobacco and tobacco smoke.

ABSTRACT: The microbiological composition of tobacco products was studied using culture and chemical analysis (of tobacco leaves) or chemical analysis only (tobacco and tobacco smoke). The chemical analyses utilized gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry for determining 3-hydroxy fatty acids, muramic acid, and ergosterol as markers of respectively lipopolysaccharide (LPS), peptidoglycan, and

Palynostratigraphy of the cretaceous-paleogene mass-extinction interval of the Northern Hemisphere

For a long time debate has taken place regarding the trends and extinction rates associated with the Cretaceous- Paleogene (K-Pg) mass extinction event on land. While mainly focussed on vertebrates and more especially non-avian dinosaurs, the dynamics of the plant cover remains nonetheless a major component for the understanding the biological response across the K-Pg interval and associated ecosy

The Role of Infrastructure Projects in Socio-economic Development: Case study of Geheyan dam

Previous research on hydropower projects impact on people’s socio-economic development has mainly focused on relocated people, immediately after they were relocated, arguing that relocation result in underdevelopment of people´s livelihoods. Henceforth, this research contribute to the literature through including a long-term perspective to highlight immediate and long-term impacts on relocated and
