This chapter addresses ten “themes” (or conclusions). It starts with conclusions on the various themes that the author has addressed in many articles, books, and reports over the decades. Each conclusion constitutes a section heading, followed by some of the arguments in a much shorter form than when the conclusions were reached originally – over the decades. Therefore, much of the text is heavily
Background: Treatment with antihypertensives in patients with advanced cancer is often continued until very late in the disease trajectory, despite a considerable risk of hypotension. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the time of deprescribing of antihypertensive agents in patients with cancer receiving palliative care during their last year of life. The monitoring of blood pres
Co-speech head and eyebrow gestures often align with pitch accents in spoken language production, thereby likely instantiating what we could refer to as multimodal prominence. Indeed, when speech is perceived audio-visually, controlled experimental studies have shown that both pitch accents and head and eyebrow gestures, when independently manipulated, have sizable effects on perceived prominence.
Multidimensional diffusion MRI is a promising new MRI approach that has the potential to non-invasively give information about brain microstructure at an unprecedented level of detail. The present contribution briefly reviews the salient features of the novel method, its historical background and differences with conventional methods, as well as the remaining challenges that have to be overcome in
BackgroundSuicide is a leading cause of premature mortality worldwide, but the impact of system-level mental health resources remains unclear despite the central role of psychiatric inpatient care and declining bed capacity. Prior research has yielded inconsistent findings with limited control for confounding. We aimed to estimate the effect of psychiatric inpatient bed availability on suicide mor

Cognitive control is a skill used to control one’s own behaviour to reach a goal. We compared this skill across archosaurs by using the distraction task on American alligators, emus, chickens, and common ravens. We investigated whether the animals would still find a food reward hidden behind one of two identical opaque barriers after picking up a food distraction. Results show that all species can
Proponents of religious non-doxasticism standardly aim to show how a commitment to traditional religion can be rational in the absence of religious belief. We demonstrate how the non-doxastic framework can be given a much wider application. In a study on Swedish semi-secularity, sociologist Ann af Burén has discovered a pattern where subjects simultaneously entertain naturalistic and supernatural
SKA Construction phase we are now in a transition phase that hopefully will prepare us for the next challenge: start building the SKA. One of the targets of this period is to evaluate the suitability of the Taranta (proper Webjive) Suite for creating engineering User Interfaces (UIs). The Taranta suite is a framework that allows the fast creation of web UIs that directly communicate with TANGO dev
This article examines the portrayal of bodily boundaries in the videogame series The Last of Us. Drawing on theories of media ecology and posthumanism (most notably Deer’s notion of radical animism, Haraway’s theories of the cyborg, and Fuller’s account of media assemblages), three aspects of this portrayal are described: first, the game’s narrativization of bodily violence through an amalgamation
Background: The complex polarity of neurons requires specialized mechanisms to allocate sufficient number of mitochondria to neurites and synapses to control local calcium and ATP levels. Deficits in trafficking are directly linked to neurodegeneration. Our objective is to demonstrate that alterations of mitochondrial spatial location and metabolism are interconnected and can lead to point-of-no-r
Remote sensing data has been proven capable and efficient as a powerful resource for large-scale land cover mapping. However, a map is considered acceptable with the required accuracy value. The problem related to sampling is how the sample amount and sample technique affect the accuracy of the land cover mapping. Furthermore, the accuracy assessment for mapping usually only utilizes accuracy meas
