AI Article Synopsis

Article Abstract

This dataset represents bridging matrices between two different data classification systems: consumption by purpose (COICOP) and products by activity (CPA). While the former classification is used in household budget and expenditure surveys, the latter represents the industry sector dimension that is typically adopted in national accounts and input-output tables. We collect input data from Eurostat on total household consumption for 35 COICOP and 63 CPA categories for the year 2015. Based on these data, we construct bridging or concordance tables for 30 European countries using recently developed matrix balancing techniques. The resulting tables enable data conversion between consumption- and production-based statistics, facilitating research that integrates macroeconomics, multi-sectoral international trade and heterogeneous agents in household-level expenditure micro-data. Although they are a necessary input in several types of research, they are often constructed on an ad hoc and region-specific basis and not shared publicly. As such, making this dataset available will be useful for computable general equilibrium and input-output models and for carbon footprint and life cycle analyses that incorporate rich consumption micro-data, for instance to shed light on distributional aspects of climate and energy policies. Furthermore, by eliminating a barrier raised by differences in statistical classifications, this dataset may foster collaboration between different research teams and may facilitate soft-linking between complementary analytical tools used for policy support.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease marked by systemic inflammation. While RA primarily affects the joints, its systemic effects may lead to an increased cerebro- and cardiovascular risk. Atherosclerosis of the carotid arteries is a significant risk factor for cerebrovascular events and serves as a surrogate marker for cardiovascular risk.

Background: The Montreal classification has been widely used in Crohn's disease since 2005 to categorize patients by the age of onset (A), disease location (L), behavior (B), and upper gastrointestinal tract and perianal involvement. With evolving management paradigms in Crohn's disease, we aimed to assess the performance of gastroenterologists in applying the Montreal classification.

Methods: An online survey was conducted among participants at an international educational conference on inflammatory bowel diseases.

A four-level model of political polarization over science: Evidence from 10 European countries.

Public Underst Sci

January 2025

Radboud University, The Netherlands; University of Gothenburg, Sweden; Leibniz University Hannover, Germany.

Citizens' trust in science increasingly depends on their political leaning. Structural equation models on survey data from 10 European countries ( = 5306) demonstrate that this can be captured by a model with four levels of generalization. Voters of populist parties distrust the in general, which indirectly fuels a broad science skepticism.

Biological invasions are a major threat to biodiversity, ecosystem functioning and nature's contributions to people worldwide. However, the effectiveness of invasive alien species (IAS) management measures and the progress toward achieving biodiversity targets remain uncertain due to limited and nonuniform data availability. Management success is usually assessed at a local level and documented in technical reports, often written in languages other than English, which makes such data notoriously difficult to collect at large geographic scales.

Background: Health systems across Europe are facing a workforce crisis, with some experiencing severe shortages of doctors. In response, many are exploring greater task-sharing, across established professions, such as doctors, nurses, and pharmacists, with patients and carers, and with new occupational groups, in particular ones that can assist doctors and relieve their workload.

Case Presentation: In the early 2000s the United Kingdom created a new occupational role, that of physician assistant.
