Credibility and intent are important but imprecise legal categories that need to be assessed in criminal trials as neither common nor civil legal systems provide decision-makers with clear rules on how to evaluate them in practice. In this article, drawing on ethnographic data from trials and deliberations in Italian courts and prosecution offices, we discuss the emotive-cognitive dynamics at playCredibility and intent are important but imprecise legal categories that need to be assessed in criminal trialsas neither common nor civil legal systems provide decision-makers with clear rules on how to evaluatethem in practice.

Exploring the rationales behind legal anger, its logic and origins, this book builds on the perspectives of judges and prosecutors in Italy, Sweden, the United States, and Scotland. When do judges and prosecutors become angry in court, what do they become angry about, and which other emotions open up for anger? Anger brings people to court and is essential in evaluating wrongdoing and attributing

The use of artificial intelligence in law represents one of the biggest challengesacross different legal systems. Supporters of predictive systems believe thatdecisionmaking could be more efficient, consistent and predictable by usingAI. European legislation and legal scholars, however, identify areas where AIdevelopments are at high risk or too dangerous to be used in judicial proceedings.In thisThe use of artificial intelligence in law represents one of the biggest challenges across different legal systems.

Gold particles are commonly used as catalysts in the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth of GaAs nanowires, but the incorporation of gold into the nanowires can negatively affect their electronic and optical properties. In this work, we investigate the equilibrium concentration of Au in GaAs nanowires using density functional theory calculations combined with thermodynamically assessed chemical potent

Pancreatic cancer remains one of the deadliest cancers due to its resistance to conventional therapies, necessitating the development of novel treatment strategies. This study investigates the anticancer potential of caulerpin, a bisindole alkaloid derived from the invasive marine alga Caulerpa cylindracea, encapsulated in biocompatible cubosomes. Caulerpin was sustainably extracted via microwave-

In the Law and Emotion field, the integration of reason and emotion finds support in empirical research. Legal practice, however, still maintains that ‘rational, objective’ law is devoid of emotion. This raises the question of how to incorporate the divide itself in a theoretical understanding of the role of emotions in legal practice. The legal system is congenial with other modern bureaucratic iIn the Law and Emotion field, the integration of reason and emotion finds support in empirical research.

Det här kapitlet tar avstamp i en av dessa händelser ’från fältet’, i detta fall en teater, som hänger sig kvar många år efteråt men som inte använts eftersom den innehåller för många trådar: lite om metod, lite om etik, mycket om kroppar och om närvaro och om kön om man vill. Händelsen börjar i ett misstag som jag utnyttjar men sen får betala för och som väckte känslor både hos mig och hos den ja

Background Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) prevents malnutrition in people with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, including those with cystic fibrosis (CF). We developed a lipase that is stable against proteolysis and at the pH of the fed stomach, so it can be taken during a meal to promote mixing of enzyme and substrate. We designed a dose-ranging study of ANG003, a microbial PERT c

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is now recognized as a multisystem, heterogeneous neurodegenerative disease with fluctuating trajectories and complex symptom profiles. Despite therapeutic advances, many patients (particularly women and those in late stages) and their caregivers face substantial unmet needs across physical, psychological, social, and spiritual domains, which highlight the need for a more

BACKGROUND: Dapagliflozin improved cardiometabolic outcomes following myocardial infarction in patients without prior type-2 diabetes (T2DM) in the DAPA-MI (dapagliflozin in patients with myocardial infarction) trial. The effect of glycemic status and body mass index (BMI) post–myocardial infarction requires elucidation. METHODS: Participants with T2DM diagnosis, without baseline hemoglobin A1c, o

Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) is an additive manufacturing (AM) process bringing many advantages over conventional processes such as allowing to obtain complex geometries and personalized designs at a lower cost. However, this process does not allow to reach tight surface roughness nor dimensional tolerances. To overcome these limits, post-production finishing techniques are required, such as f

Introduction: There is a lack of comprehensive data on complications following sinus surgery (SS) in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of SS-related complications in CRSwNP patients and examine patient characteristics, predictors of revision surgery, healthcare use, and associated costs using secondary care data from Swedis
