This study examines how tourism affects and reshapes residents’ identities and sense of place in the Sanno-chiku of Takayama City in Gifu Prefecture, Japan. This study focuses on residents’ lived experiences and discusses tourism through the ideas and concepts of place, sense of place, identity, mobility, and commodification. This study asks two research questions: 1) How does tourism shape local

The ALICE Collaboration at the CERN LHC has measured the inclusive production cross section of isolated photons at midrapidity as a function of the photon transverse momentum (pTγ), in Pb–Pb collisions in different centrality intervals, and in pp collisions, at centre-of-momentum energy per nucleon pair of sNN=5.02 TeV. The photon transverse momentum range is between 10–14 and 40–140 GeV/c, depend
Economic policy instruments are commonly used to address environmental problems. This study examines the historical development of the carbon tax in Sweden. By using the concept of epistemic culture, this study shows how carbon emissions, rather than energy use alone, emerged as an object of taxation. While the leading politicians saw the carbon tax as an innovative instrument for demonstrating cl
The concept of bricolage has primarily been used in exploring how entrepreneurs in the formal sector, in addition to social entrepreneurs, mobilise resources in developing their businesses. Little is known, however, about the bricolage experiences of young informal entrepreneurs in the rapidly changing, technologically driven mobile telephony sector. Drawing on qualitative field research with youn
The modified fighting hypothesis (MFH) proposes that most humans are right-handed because it conveyed an advantage during intraspecific fights with sharp weapons, due to the leftward location of the heart and aorta. An examination of the literature on sharp force injury showed that the thoracic region is penetrated more than any other region, and the left thorax is penetrated approximately 2.4 tim
The ability to overcome short-term economic stress has been shown to be a good measure of the standard of living of populations in the past. From micro-level studies conducted across Europe and Asia we have learned that measures taken to smooth consumption, such as delaying births and marriages, and out-migration, were not sufficient to prevent all family members from dying in years with high food
Introduction: Benchmarking colorectal surgery outcomes informs quality improvement. The ESCP CORREA 2022 snapshot audit aimed to assess contemporary colorectal resection practices and short-term outcomes across European countries and beyond. Methods: An international prospective multicentre audit was conducted in which adults undergoing elective or emergency colorectal resection during a 6-week pe
This study tests the viability of multiple sorting tasks (MST) as a method to explore perceptions of public space and its potential for people that are vulnerable to loneliness. The procedure integrates qualitative and quantitative aspects and obviates the challenge of people articulating how they interact with their surroundings, especially being aware of what features of their environment are in
This study investigates the impact of a 10-week Arts on Prescription (AoP) program in Denmark designed for young adults aged 18–30 who were disengaged from education and unemployed. Eighteen participants took part in four semi-structured focus group interviews, and four completed a survey; most reported experiences of anxiety, depression, and stress, with some describing chronic pain, ADHD, or aut
Serglycin (SRGN) has been found overexpressed and secreted in glioblastoma (GBM), associated with tumorigenic signaling and poor prognosis. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the involvement of SRGN in the unfolded protein response (UPR), an oncogenic signaling pathway implicated in protein recycling and cell fate. Herein, we developed stably transduced LN-18shSCR GBM cells, expressing high leve
The exploration of tunable superconductivity in strongly correlated electron systems is a central pursuit in condensed matter physics, with implications for both fundamental understanding and potential applications. The Laves phase CeRu2, a pyrochlore compound, exhibits a three-dimensional (3D) kagome lattice type geometry giving rise to flat bands and degenerate Dirac points, where band structure
The interplay between superconductivity and charge or spin order is a key focus in condensed matter physics, with kagome lattice systems providing unique insights. The kagome superconductor LaRu3Si2 (Tc ≃ 6.5 K) features a characteristic kagome band structure and a hierarchy of charge order transitions at Tco,I ≃ 400 K and Tco,II ≃ 80 K, along with an additional transition at T* ≃ 35 K associated
The two-dimensional kagome lattice is an experimental playground for novel physical phenomena, from frustrated magnetism and topological matter to chiral charge order and unconventional superconductivity. A newly identified kagome superconductor, Ta2V3.1Si0.9 has recently gained attention for possessing a record high critical temperature, TC = 7.5 K for kagome metals at ambient pressure. In this s
Purpose: The study aimed to describe patients’ experiences of physical, psychological, social, and existential symptoms and challenges during the first year after allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). Methods: Quantitative and qualitative data were collected and analysed with descriptive methods as part of a large retrospective cross-sectional online survey of patients who und
Sustainable water resources management in arid and semi-arid areas needs robust models, which allow accurate and reliable predictive modeling. This issue has motivated the researchers to develop hybrid models that offer solutions on modelling problems and accurate predictions of groundwater potential zonation. For this purpose, this research aims to investigate the capability and robustness of a n
Owing to the complexity in the chemical composition of plant essential oils, they often display enhanced insecticidal activity when applied as a mixture. Although the insecticidal activity of plant essential oils has been gaining more attention recently, understanding in the mechanism of synergy has not been studied as much. In the present study, insecticidal activity of 28 individual essential oi
