Lymphedema leads to lymph accumulation and adipose tissue deposition. When the lymph has been removed by combined physiotherapy and there still is a significant excess volume, the remaining swelling comprises adipose tissue. Thus, in order to completely reduce the excess volume, the fat needs to be removed with liposuction followed by the use of compression garments. Liposuction is the only method

The article analyses the climate policy of the German Trade Union Federation over the last 30 years. It defines a new form of eco social partnership unionism where unions use existing institutions to adapt to the challenges of climate change without embarking on more transformative avenues questioning the status quo. We show that unions climate policy has been subject to little change over the pas

The purpose of this thesis is to illustrate the purpose structure of company law and stock market law, and the various arguments for interpretation that apply when applying the law in these areas. This is done through the analysis provided the contributions in the second part of the thesis (Part II) of a number of illustrative central corporate law and stock market law issues, and through the the

The Middle East, a pivotal player in global energy markets, faces a confluence of challenges and opportunities as it navigates a transition towards sustainable energy systems. This region is home to five of the top ten oil producers in the world, and three of the top twenty gas producers. Shifting dynamics in energy demand, combined with pressing concerns for mankind to address global climate chan

The use of virtual learning environments is increasing, and it raises the question of how the environments are designed to benefit learning outcomes. The Cognitive Load Theory is a well-established framework for instructional design of learning environments, and introduces different design principles, based on a working memory model. This paper describes how these principles can be used in the des

This chapter summarizes current knowledge and diagnostic criteria for T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (T-PLL). T-PLL is an aggressive disease characterized by a proliferation of small to medium-sized lymphocytes with a postthymic phenotype usually involving the blood, bone marrow, lymph nodes, spleen, and skin. The leukemic cells are usually positive for CD2, CD3 CD5, CD7, CD43, CD52, and CD26, but

Proposals that gesture played a pivotal role in the evolution of language have been highly influential. However, there are many differences between gestural origin theories, including different definitions of 'gesture' itself. We use a cognitive semiotic approach in order to categorize and review these theories. A semiotic system is a combination of signs or signals of particular type, defined by

2023 JCP Emerging Investigators Special Collection: Tuning perovskite nanocrystal superlattices for superradiance in the presence of disorder

Background: Dyspnea is a common and diagnostically challenging symptom in the emergency department (ED), particularly among older adults with multimorbidity. Traditional risk stratification tools often perform poorly in this population. Galectin-3 (Gal-3), a biomarker of inflammation and fibrosis, may reflect biological aging and resilience, potentially improving early mortality risk assessment.Ob
