ABSTRACT The study investigates how the Best Interests of the Child principle in the UN Children's Rights Convention (Article 3) has been adapted in custody disputes in Egypt, Sweden, and Uzbekistan. Although the Convention on the Rights of the Child offers a common normative benchmark, divergent legal cultures shape its domestic meaning: Egypt is ...

A three‐dimensional biomechanical model of the musculoskeletal system is used to analyse the potential locomotor functions of the small (~1 kg) Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Gracilisuchus stipanicicorum. The study finds that, potentially like the ancestral archosaur, this taxon was probably quadrupedal, plantigrade and neither strongly sprawling ...

Graphical overview of 2D and 3D length measurements of the free Achilles tendon. The figure also illustrates how the typical distal morphology of the soleus muscle affects 2D measurement. Abstract Quantifying strain in the free Achilles tendon (ATF) is essential for understanding its mechanical function, yet existing in vivo studies report inconsistent

The Generics Revolution and the New Economic Geography of the Global Pesticide Industry
ABSTRACT The global pesticide industry transformed from one dominated by patented products and legacy multinationals with strong manufacturing bases in the United States and EU to one dominated by generic products produced in India and China. We use proprietary market research data, data from regulatory filings, industry press and bilateral trade data ...

Psychophysical changes after total sleep deprivation and experimental muscle pain
Summary Sleep disturbances exacerbate chronic pain, increase psychological load, and increase inflammation. Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) mimics aspects of chronic pain, predominantly affecting peripheral pain mechanisms, while experimental sleep provocations have been shown to impact central pain mechanisms.

Increased p‐Tau181 Levels After Overnight Wakefulness Are Associated With Neuroticism in Young Women
Overnight wakefulness, mimicking night shift conditions, impaired morning vigilance in healthy, reproductive‐aged women, regardless of estradiol or neuroticism. However, the overnight wakefulness‐related rise in the Alzheimer's disease blood biomarker p‐Tau181 was greater in women with higher neuroticism, suggesting that neurobiological vulnerability ...

Abstract In this article, we conceptualize how Davis’ two concepts of uneven reproduction and obstetric racism—both rooted in the US context—are effectuated in the Netherlands. We consider uneven reproduction to consist of bio‐ and necropolitics, namely the management and regulation of a population's bodies, life and death.

Anaemia Among Mother–Child Dyads in India: Trends, Drivers, and Future Projections
ABSTRACT Anaemia among mothers and their children is a widespread public health challenge with profound consequences for individuals and societies. While anaemia has been studied separately in women and children, there remains a literature gap examining anaemia in mother‐child dyads, limiting insights on interventions that may simultaneously address ...
