The uncomfortable science in the womb: How biological experience disrupts surrogacy narratives
Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract The discourse surrounding surrogacy portrays pregnancy as a temporary process, depicting surrogates as neutral “carriers” whose involvement concludes at birth. This narrative minimizes gestation's biological significance despite evidence of its lasting effects on both women and children.

Managing Missing Pavement Performance Data in Pavement Management System [PDF]
, 2015 Missing data in pavement condition and performance records of pavement management systems (PMS) are ubiquitous in practice. Imputation of missing data is often required in the analysis of pavement performance and decision making for pavement management ...

Pavement Management System [PDF]
, 2007 All kinds of motorways enable motor vehicles to travel. Pavement structures and pavement surfaces are exposed to various loadings (traffic, climate etc.) which cause deformations and deterioration (changes of condition).

Sociology of Health &Illness, Volume 48, Issue 8, November 2026.ABSTRACT Clinical knowledge production is fundamentally centred on patient problems, improving the lives of patients. If patients die, physicians also need to administer death. What is their responsibility to generate knowledge about causes of death? Based on semi‐structured interviews with 35 physicians, we show what sources physicians draw on, what ...

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 56, 9 October 2026.In bladder cancer, LRG1 binds to ANXA2 to trigger mitochondrial ROS‐dependent NETosis. This pathogenic cascade actively uncouples endothelial‐mural cell interactions, driving profound vascular destabilization. Consequently, targeting the LRG1‐ANXA2 axis attenuates the neutrophil burden and induces structural vascular normalization, offering a powerful ...

Generating Infrastructure Funds Through Innovative Pavement Management
, 2015 The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) estimates that there will be a need for $3.6 trillion in infrastructure investment by 2020. A portion of this need can be made available through judicious management of the Nation's pavement systems.

Health Care Science, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 495-513, October 2026.This review elucidates the crosstalk between Parkinson's disease and colorectal cancer, driven by shared genetics (PRKN, PINK1, DJ‐1) involving oxidative stress, cell cycle regulation, and inflammation. It identifies the gut microbiota—via functional amyloids and short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs)—as a mechanistic bridge, offering insights for dual ...

Preparing for the Next Transformation in Pavement Management
, 2015 Since the initial development of a systems approach for managing pavements in the late 1970's and early 1980's, there have been tremendous changes in the way transportation agencies have designed, constructed, and managed their pavement networks. In just
