Scaling Laws and Thermodynamic Limits of Modular Thermoelastic Energy Harvesting from Low-Grade Heat
Low-grade thermal energy is widely available in industrial waste-heat streams and natural temperature fluctuations, yet its utilization remains limited because of weak thermodynamic driving forces and the complexity of conventional heat-engine technologies. This study presents a...

Capturing Human-Biodiversity-Ecosystem Interactions in Advanced Models of the Land-System
For many decades, global modelling of processes in land ecosystems has focused on their role in the carbon cycle, given the importance of land carbon sinks and sources in either dampening or amplifying climate change. Despite the rapid progress made in the 1990s and early 2000s,...

The Principle of Good Faith in International Law: Between Morality and Binding Force
The principle of good faith (bona fides) occupies an ambiguous but indispensable position in the architecture of international law. Rooted in Roman private law and moral philosophy, it has gradually migrated into the public international legal order, acquiring normative force thr...

Effectiveness of Simulation-Based Training for Thoracentesis - A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND: Thoracentesis is a common bedside procedure. Complication rates are, among other factors, associated with the clinicians' skills. Simulation-based training (SBT) for teaching procedural skills is widely recommended in medical education. However, the current evidence o...

Maternal nutrition determines the variable expressivity of STRA6-associated eye malformations
Mutations in STRA6 , the high-affinity receptor for retinol-binding protein, cause Matthew-Wood syndrome, a congenital disorder characterized by striking phenotypic variability ranging from isolated ocular anomalies to severe multisystem malformations. The mechanisms underlying t...
