Practical and structural changes alone are not enough to achieve sustainable transformation of food systems because they are influenced by people’s underlying inner dimensions. Using data from quantitative student surveys and semi-structured interviews with school workers, this study applies three spheres of transformation framework and explores what place Estonian adolescents’ inner dimensions (v

This essay analyzes frequently used adjectives co-occurring with general gender-specific nouns and investigates the sociolinguistic effects that the semantic associations and gender-stereotypical descriptions in sentences have on English speakers. A mixed-methods approach was conducted, with one corpus-based, and one empirical methodology used. Previous researchers have studied gender stereotypes’

5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a versatile bio-based platform chemical that can substitute fossil-derived intermediates in polymers, solvents, and fuels, thereby contributing to a fossil-free chemical industry. While first-generation feedstocks such as high-fructose corn syrup have been widely studied, their use raises concerns about competition with food supply. In contrast, second-generation r

This thesis seeks to analyse the current legal regime on copyright and trade marks in relation to classic European folklore, specifically fairy tales; and to verify whether this regime satisfies the European Union’s goals to safeguard cultural heritage in light of intellectual property protection.

Abstract Title: Knowledge of the Fundamentals of Supply Chain Management – Design and Assessment of an Educational and Pedagogical Tool Authors: Ana Carolina Ramalheira Correia, Areej Ribhi Ibrahim Al-Sabban Background: Traditional pedagogical methods in supply chain management (SCM) education often fail to effectively engage learners, resulting in reduced motivation, limited knowledge retention o

Dead wood is a key element in forest ecosystems and a wide range of organisms are dependent on this substrate for development and reproduction. Saproxylic beetles are important decomposers of dead wood and serve as food for many organisms. Due to the significant forestry-related decrease of dead wood in rural areas, many species of saproxylic beetles are considered threatened. Thus, other spaces h

Introduction: The prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents continues to rise, and there is a lack of long-term follow-up to clarify health and well-being trajectories into adolescence and adulthood. This study investigated anthropometry and quality of life (QoL) trajectories in 7-14-year-old vulnerable children three years after attending a lifestyle camp. Methods: Vulnerab

BACKGROUND: Patients receiving intraoperative ventilation during general anesthesia often have low end-tidal CO2 (etCO2). We examined the association of intraoperative etCO2 levels with the occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in a conveniently-sized international, prospective study named 'Local ASsessment of Ventilatory management during General Anesthesia for Surgery' (LAS

The impact of variations in the three-dimensional structure of the genome has been recognized, but solid cancer tissue studies are limited. Here, we performed integrated deep Hi-C sequencing with matched whole-genome sequencing, whole-genome bisulfite sequencing, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) sequencing and RNA sequencing across a cohort of 80 biopsy samples from patients with metastatic castrati

In this article, we use a crowd theoretical perspective to look at student crowds and how they have been managed through various subdivisions of student housing. How has the student cohort been territorialised and divided into entities according to differences in group sizes, gender, family constellations, etc., and how has housing played a role in these social differentiations? Using the history

IMPORTANCE: Key information is often omitted from pediatric randomized controlled trial (RCT) protocols, including details on dose adjustments of interventions based on age, body surface area, or weight; developmental appropriateness of trial outcome measures and processes; or strategies to minimize participants' anxiety and pain. These deficiencies impair the planning and implementation of potent
