Representations of changing weather conditions and outdoor work in the Swedish media: Legitimization of a risk discourse. by Bo Nilsson, Jenny Lönnroth

“…Together, these categories underpin a general risk discourse that is legitimized using strategies such as scientification, dramatization, and personification. The conclusion is that the media representations are characterized by a de-politization of climate change and changing weather conditions, and by a focus on individual adaptation to these changes.…”

Different behavior of electrosurgical currents between air and saline immersion therapeutic endoscopy by Antonio Capogreco, Roberta Maselli, Markus Enderle, Nermin Salkic, Sandra Keller, Francesco De Gaetano, Elisabetta Mastrorocco, Roberto de Sire, Ludovico Alfarone, Davide Massimi, Jérémie Jacques, Romain Legros, Mathieu Pioche, Yuichi Mori, Cesare Hassan, Alessandro Repici

“…This resulted in a 52-78% reduction in peak voltage (AirRange: 920–1165 V, SalineRange: 257–499 V; p < 0.01 for all settings), and a 237-2030% increase in power delivered (AirRange: 3–19 W, SalineRange: 50–117 W; p < 0.01 for all settings). The dramatic decrease in impedance results in a sharp reduction of voltage, explaining the coagulation effect observed when passing from air to saline-immersion therapeutic endoscopy.…”

UK multiple sclerosis risk-sharing scheme: a new natural history dataset and an improved Markov model by Jacqueline Palace, Martin Duddy, Thomas Bregenzer, Mike Boggild, Joel Oger, Helen Tremlett, Charles Dobson, Fheng Zhu

“…Objectives In 2002, the UK's National Institute for Health and Care Excellence concluded that the multiple sclerosis (MS) disease modifying therapies; interferon-β and glatiramer acetate, were not cost effective over the short term but recognised that reducing disability over the longer term might dramatically improve the cost effectiveness. The UK Risk-sharing Scheme (RSS) was established to ensure cost-effective provision by prospectively collecting disability-related data from UK-treated patients with MS and comparing findings to a natural history (untreated) cohort. …”

Duckweed: a starch-hyperaccumulating plant under cultivation with a combination of nutrient limitation and elevated CO2 by Ling Guo, Ling Guo, Yang Fang, Songhu Wang, Yao Xiao, Yanqiang Ding, Yanling Jin, Xueping Tian, Anping Du, Zhihua Liao, Kaize He, Shuang Chen, Yonggui Zhao, Li Tan, Zhuolin Yi, Yuqing Che, Lanchai Chen, Jinmeng Li, Leyi Zhao, Peng Zhang, Zhengbiao Gu, Fangyuan Zhang, Yan Hong, Qing Zhang, Hai Zhao

“…In this study, we integrated whole-genome sequencing, epigenomics, transcriptomics, enzyme activity, and composition variation to elucidate the mechanisms of efficient starch accumulation in duckweed in terms of starch accumulation and carbon partitioning, regulation of the expression of genes in the starch metabolic pathway, and sucrose biosynthesis and transportation.Results and discussionAlthough Landoltia punctata exhibits dramatic gene family contraction, its starch content and productivity reached 72.2% (dry basis) and 10.4 g m-2 d-1, respectively, in 10 days, equivalent to a yield of 38.0 t ha-1 y-1, under nutrient limitation treatment with elevated CO2 levels. …”

Historical narrative and wisdom. Towards preaching Esther "for such a time as this" by Arie C. Leder

“… This article considers the problem of preaching OT historical narrative from the point of view of the depiction of God’s participation in the drama. It suggests that historical narrative in general depicts a God who reveals himself infrequently, that his presence is normally veiled, and that the reader often has more information about God than the characters in the narrative. …”
