This paper explores how Danish legal professionals assess the trustworthiness of victims in criminal cases based on emotional expressions. It focuses on the alignment of these expressions with the nature of the crime, the social context, and the victims' social identities, and is based on findings from several ethnographic projects involving extensive observations of crime cases and interviews with criminal justice professionals. The research analyzes how victims' emotional expressions are scrutinized and interpreted within the context of Danish cultural norms, which favor "calm and quiet" behavior.

Aim: To investigate liver biochemistry in infants screened for biliary atresia (BA) at the time of hepatobiliary scintigraphy (HS) and to evaluate the effect of change in threshold for HS.

Methods: Infants born from 2010 to 2021, who underwent HS <6 months postpartum for BA, were included and data sourced from electronic medical records. The change in threshold in 2018 from ≥20 (and/or if conjugated bilirubin exceeds 20% of total bilirubin) to ≥17 μM (regardless of total bilirubin) was evaluated.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the prevalence of omphalocele, a serious congenital defect, in a large cohort of live births in Denmark from 1997-2021.
  • More than half of the infants with omphalocele were found to have additional major malformations, indicating a significant risk for complications.
  • These findings emphasize the need to consider the long-term healthcare requirements for infants with omphalocele and associated syndromes.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study examined trends in gastroschisis prevalence among Danish infants over 28 years, revealing a significant annual increase of 2.8%, reaching a prevalence of 1.64 per 10,000 live births.
  • - The majority of infants (77.7%) presented with isolated gastroschisis, while a smaller percentage (21.9%) had co-occurring malformations, particularly cardiovascular and intestinal issues.
  • - Overall, while gastroschisis cases have risen, the occurrence of associated malformations has not shown a similar increase; future research will focus on healthcare patterns and long-term outcomes for these infants.
