ZusammenfassungSeit 1964 hat sich das Freiwillige Soziale Jahr (FSJ) vielfältig weiterentwickelt und ausdifferenziert. Nicht nur die Ausweitung an Personenzahl und Trägern, sondern auch die Möglichkeit, das FSJ in verschiedenen Bereichen und im Ausland zu absolvieren, sind Teil dieses Prozesses, ebenso wie die Einführung von Modellprojekten (FSJ INGLOS (2015) sei hier exemplarisch genannt). In diesem Beitrag wird das Freiwillige Soziale Jahr im Internationalen fokussiert und zunächst einige Zahlen und Entwicklungen des FSJ im Ausland und das FSJ Incoming vorstellt. Daran anschließend wird der Incoming-Freiwilligendienst im Fokus stehen und insbesondere Notwendigkeiten und Möglichkeiten der Weiterentwicklung diskutiert.
The Impact of Cultural Values on the Association Between Family Relations and Children’s Life Satisfaction. A Comparison of Children in Two-Parent Families Across 39 Countries
Authors: Hess Stephanie 
Published: August 2024

AbstractDespite increasing interest in country differences and the identification of macro-societal circumstances that shape children’s well-being, cross-national comparisons of children’s subjective well-being are still rare. This study investigates the effect of family relations on children’s life satisfaction in 39 countries from multiple world regions, with the aims of unveiling differences in average life satisfaction, comparing the effect of family relations on life satisfaction and testing the moderating effect of cultural values, emphasizing differences between collectivist and individualistic countries. Single-country regressions and multilevel modelling are used to analyse data from 129,018 children from two-parent families who participated in the first, second or third wave of the International Survey of Children’s Lives and Well-Being. The results reveal that average life satisfaction is slightly higher in individualistic societies, but that the association between the Individualism Index and life satisfaction is not linear. Good family relations are shown to improve life satisfaction in all countries, but the effect strength differs considerably. The life satisfaction of children from individualistic countries, compared to that of children from collectivist countries, suffers considerably more from the experience of bad family relations. These findings highlight the necessity of considering children’s cultural environment when examining their life satisfaction.

Abstract
Objective
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are accompanied by symptoms that can vastly affect patients’ representations of their bodies. The aim of this study was to investigate alterations in body evaluation and body ownership in IBD and their link to interoceptive sensibility, gastrointestinal-specific anxiety, and history of childhood maltreatment.

Methods
Body evaluation and ownership was assessed in 41 clinically remitted patients with IBD and 44 healthy controls (HC) using a topographical self-report method. Interoceptive sensibility, gastrointestinal-specific anxiety and a history of childhood maltreatment were assessed via self-report questionnaires.

Results
Patients reporting higher interoceptive sensibility perceived their bodies in a more positive manner. Higher gastrointestinal-specific anxiety was linked to a more negative body evaluation particularly of the abdomen in patients with IBD. Childhood maltreatment severity strengthened the positive association between interoceptive sensibility and body ownership only in those patients reporting higher trauma load.

Conclusion
Altered body representations of areas associated with abdominal pain are linked to higher symptom-specific anxiety and lower levels of interoceptive sensibility in IBD. Particularly in patients with a history of childhood maltreatment, higher levels of interoceptive sensibility might have a beneficial effect on the patients’ sense of body ownership.

Abstract
Objective
The goal of this in vitro pilot study was to compare the osteogenic potential of different ground human tooth preparations.

Methods
Twelve maxillary third molars were included and divided into four groups: FT (full tooth), containing all dental tissues (enamel, dentin, pulp, cementum, and periodontal ligament); WE, without enamel; WPL, without periodontal ligament; and WEPL, without enamel and periodontal ligament. The teeth were ground to macroscopically homogeneous particles. The new bone formation was the primary variable evaluated. Pre-osteoblastic cells were incubated with protein extracted from this substrate to verify their osteoinductive potential. Cell proliferation, viability assays, mRNA expression of type I Collagen (COL-I), RUNX-2, BMP-2, and mineral nodules were assessed to achieve the main outcome. Data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA and Tukey tests, considering alpha = 5%.

Results
The FT group had the lowest proliferation cell rates, whereas WEPL had the highest rates (p < 0.05). Moreover, there was an increased gene expression of all genes studied in the WEPL group and a greater formation of phosphate nodules (p < 0.05).

Conclusion
The dental substrate without enamel and periodontal ligament (WEPL) showed better and improved results than the other groups, revealing promising osteogenic potential for use as a biomaterial for grafting.

AbstractThe presented study investigates the dynamics of DOC concentrations in headwater peatbog areas with respect to the extreme rainfall-runoff (R-R) events hydrometeorological catchment preconditions (23 variables in total). The main data sources were automatic devices for monitoring of groundwater level, discharges and rainfalls providing data in 10 min steps installed in the Vydra River catchment and one automatic water sampler ISCO in sub-catchment of the Rokytka River basin in the Šumava (Bohemian Forest) National Park. The study period was 2018–2021, in which 18 R-R events were analysed. Data of DOC variability and catchment conditions were analysed using Spearman’s correlation coefficient, Principal Component Analysis and DOC/Q hysteresis loops. Changes in groundwater level and discharges had the greatest influence on DOC concentrations. Higher mean and maximum DOC were measured during events after a longer period without an extreme R-R event. The greater lag time of maximum DOC after peak flow and the higher mean DOC during the event were primarily due to hydrometeorological preconditions of the catchment. The highest DOC was in autumn after the previous summer period with low discharges and low groundwater levels. DOC was also positively correlated with air and water temperatures.
Achsensymmetrisch?! Praktiken, soziale und sozio-mathematische Normen der Begründung der Achsensymmetrie ebener Figuren in der Grundschule

Published: August 2024

Zusammenfassung
Soziale Aushandlungsprozesse sind wesentlicher Bestandteil des Unterrichts. In ihnen konstituieren sich geteilte Erkenntnisse, aber auch Erwartungen, z. B. darüber, was bei einer Lösung oder Begründung erwartet wird und als akzeptabel und vollständig gilt. Dieser Beitrag befasst sich mit dem fachlichen Gegenstand Achsensymmetrie und analysiert, welche sozialen, sozio-mathematischen Normen und Praktiken sich bei der Überprüfung und der Begründung von Achsensymmetrie bei ebenen Figuren im Klassengespräch etablieren. Die Daten stammen aus Design-Experimenten einer fachdidaktischen Entwicklungsforschungsstudie mit dritten Klassen im Lehr-Lern-Labor an der Universität Paderborn. Basis ist eine Lernumgebung mit Fokus auf der Klassifikation quadratischer achsensymmetrischer und nicht achsensymmetrischer Figuren.
Als Ergebnis der Studie in Form lokaler Theorien zeigt sich, dass sich ein Begründungsbedarf einer Klassifikation als soziale Norm nur durch Einforderung einer Begründung durch die Lehrkraft ergibt. Des Weiteren zeigen sich die Praktiken des Verweisens auf ein Überprüfungsverfahren und das Kontrastieren als bedeutsam, bedingt durch die sich etablierenden sozio-mathematischen Normen zum Beleg für die Achsensymmetrie einer Figur, einen empirischeren Beleg anzuführen oder ein begriffsbestimmendes Merkmal zu erläutern. Zudem konnten Erwartungen an die Vollständigkeit einer Begründung sichtbar gemacht werden. Inwiefern sich Praktiken etablieren, scheint wesentlich davon abzuhängen, ob und wie Begründungsbedarf angezeigt wird.

AbstractThymus is considered a non-functional remnant in adults, but some evidence suggest that it may harbor residual activity. Lung cancer patients represent the ideal model to study thymic residual activity, as their thymus can be easily harvested during surgery. This study was designed to confirm the presence of residual thymic activity both in adult mice (step 1) and in humans (step 2). In step 1, lung cancer was induced by activating k-ras mutation in a cohort of 20 young and adult mice. After killing, thymus and lungs were analyzed. Thymus was considered active when medullary was evident, cortico-medullary ratio was 50:50 or higher and adipose involution was present. In step 2, a cohort of 20 patients, undergoing surgery for lung cancer, had biopsy of pericardial fat pad, site of ectopic thymus. Thymus was considered present if Hassall’s bodies were detected. In mice, active thymus was detected in a high proportion of cases, without significant difference between adult and young (70% vs 44.4% respectively). Two cases without evidence of lung tumor had a fully functional thymus. In humans, ectopic thymus was detected in the pericardial fat pad in 2 cases (10.5%), confirmed by immunohistochemistry. Signs of previous thymic activity were detected in 8 additional patients. Results confirmed thymus activity in animal models and humans with lung cancer, providing the rationale for future systematic mediastinal thymic biopsy. The comprehension of interactions between thymus, lymphocytes and tumor may open a new potentially targetable perspective in lung cancer.
To each Technology Its Own Ethics? A Reply to Sætra & Danaher (and Their Critics)
Authors: Pareto Júlia , Torras Carme 
Published: August 2024

AbstractContemporary ethics is currently ramifying into different sub-ethics specific to each type of technology. Although this trend has been very timely and rightly called into question by Sætra and Danaher, both these authors and their critics Llorca Albareda and Rueda leave the matter unsolved from a discipline point of view. In this commentary, we clarify the statute of the ethics of technology, which corresponds to that of a subsidiary applied ethics, and show how it is precisely that, what renders the creation of an ethics for each technology inappropriate. We thus provide a disciplinary reason to support Sætra and Danaher’s concern on tech ethics proliferation and to refute Llorca Albareda and Rueda’s relativization of it. In turn, we conclude by drawing some guidelines for tech ethics in practice.

Abstract

Purpose
The consequent use of malaria rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) preceding a treatment decision has improved the global management of malaria. A combination RDT, including an inflammation marker to potentially guide antibiotic prescription, could improve the management of acute febrile illness (AFI).

Methods
We performed a prospective, cross-sectional study in Gabon evaluating the STANDARD Malaria/CRP DUO (S-DUO) RDT. Participants aged 2 to 17 years with fever at presentation and/or a history of fever < 7 days were enrolled. Expert microscopy, SD Bioline Malaria Ag P.f/Pan test for malaria detection, and NycoCard CRP device for CRP were used as comparators. AFI cases were classified on a spectrum encompassing bacterial vs. non-bacterial infection.

Results
415 participants with AFI were enrolled. S-DUO RDT sensitivity and specificity for malaria detection vs. microscopy were 99·1% (95·2–100%) and 72·7% (64·3–80·1%); and for CRP detection (20 mg/L and above) 86·9% (80–92%) and 87% (79·2–92·7%), respectively. The difference in CRP levels between bacterial infection (mean = 41·2 mg/L) and other causes of fever, measured from our study population using the Nycocard device, was statistically significant (p < 0·01); CRP precision-recall AUC to distinguish bacterial infection class vs. non-bacterial classifications was 0·79.

Conclusion
S-DUO RDT is suitable for malaria detection in moderate-to-high malaria transmission settings such as in Lambaréné; however, a CRP band detection limit > 40 mg/L is more adequate for indication of antibiotic prescription for AFI cases in Gabon.
Dynamic control simulation of a new joint model with energy recovery during walking, using magnetorheological fluids, for lower limb prosthesis

Published: August 2024

AbstractResearchers can now utilize new materials to create innovative models for lower limb prostheses and explore novel ways to use them for efficient dynamic control. To achieve user-friendliness, one area of research focuses on recovering and reusing kinetic walking energy for dynamic control. This paper proposes a new design for a magnetorheological (MR) valve, along with a rotary actuator which offers a dynamic control for a lower limb prosthesis. The design will allow the storage of the energy during heel and mid-foot contact phases and to utilize it during toe support to lift the foot off the ground and establish a balance for the lower limb prosthesis. The energy is transferred through a magnetorheological hydraulic circuit and stored using a pneumatic system. The speed of energy transfer is regulated by magnetorheological valves. A series of MR valve designs were proposed and evaluated experimentally, which allowed the identification of the most suitable variant in the targeted application context. The design of the lower limb prosthesis was simulated using SolidWorks, and its dynamic behavior was analyzed in ANSYS.

Abstract
Background
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication of traumatic hemorrhagic shock. The risk factors for AKI after traumatic hemorrhagic shock remain unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors for AKI after traumatic hemorrhagic shock.

Methods
This was a ten-year retrospective cohort study of patients who experienced traumatic hemorrhagic shock between January 2013 and April 2023. Patient characteristics and clinical data were recorded for 417 patients. The outcome was the occurrence of AKI, defined as a serum creatinine increase of ≥ 0.3 mg/dL (≥ 26.5 μmol/L) within 48 h, or an increase to 1.5 times the baseline, or a urine volume of < 0.5 mL/(kg h.). Risk factors for AKI were tested by logistic regression models.

Results
The incidence of AKI after traumatic hemorrhagic shock was 29.3% (122/417 patients). Multivariable analysis revealed that the independent risk factors for AKI included age (OR, 1.048; 95% CI, 1.022–1.074; p < 0.001), B-type natriuretic peptide (OR, 1.002; 95% CI, 1.000–1.004; p = 0.041), sepsis (OR, 4.536; 95% CI, 1.651–12.462; p = 0.030) and acute myocardial injury (OR, 2.745; 95% CI, 1.027–7.342; p = 0.044). Road traffic accidents (OR, 0.202; 95% CI, 0.076–0.541; p = 0.001), mean arterial pressure (OR, 0.972; 95% CI, 0.950–0.995; p = 0.017), and base excess (OR, 0.842; 95% CI, 0.764–0.929; p = 0.001) were negatively correlated with AKI. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for prediction by this model was 0.85 (95% CI, 0.81–0.90).

Conclusion
The incidence of AKI after traumatic hemorrhagic shock was 29.3% in our series. Indicators of blood perfusion, sepsis and acute myocardial injury may be independent risk factors for AKI after traumatic hemorrhagic shock. Early detection and effective intervention on these risk factors could reduce the occurrence of AKI and improve outcomes.

Published: August 2024

AbstractAlzheimer's disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia, characterized by neuropathological features such as amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques, neurofibrillary tau tangles, and neurodegeneration. Immunotherapy offers a promising potentially disease-modifying treatment for AD. We review recent advances in AD immunotherapy, specifically focusing on Aβ, tau, and neuroinflammation-targeted approaches, and gain insights from randomized controlled trials to propose disease-modifying directions.
Worried (and) sick: how environmental hazards affect Americans’ health-related risk attitudes
Authors: Dvir Rotem , Vedlitz Arnold , Ye Xinyue 
Published: August 2024

AbstractThis study explores risk attitudes towards environmental hazards by adapting the Comprehensive Conceptual Risk Perception Model (CCRPM) and applying it in the context of health-related implications of these hazards. We argue that personal experience and a deeper understanding of environmental hazards increase risk perceptions, while a strong social context reduces health concerns. Utilizing data from a national survey (N = 1207), our findings reveal higher health-related risk perceptions among individuals with pre-existing health conditions. Additionally, those with greater knowledge of environmental threats exhibit heightened concern about health complications. Conversely, individuals in communities with robust social ties report lower risk attitudes. An in-depth analysis further indicates that residents of high-risk communities, characterized by higher levels of air pollution, have increased risk perceptions compared to those in less polluted areas. These findings reinforce the dimensions described in the CCRPM and highlight the significance of structural conditions in shaping individuals' risk perceptions.
Artificial intelligence and computer-mediated communication: the text analysis and undergrad’s class observation
Authors: Baskota Prateet , Poudel Tikaram 
Published: August 2024

AbstractThe term “computer-mediated communication” (CMC) describes the transmission of messages and information using computer technology. With the extensive use of email, instant messaging, social media, and other digital platforms in Nepal in recent years, this style of communication has grown in popularity. The article examines how computer-mediated communication (CMC) and artificial intelligence (AI) have grown in significance in Nepal’s undergrad English education. This article allows students to collaborate on projects and tasks, which improves their learning experience, by examining the potential of AI and CMC. The facts of Nepal’s education have been examined using the four different basic literature reviews. Despite the need for further literature on artificial intelligence and computer-mediated communication in Nepal’s English classes for undergrads between 2018 and 2023, the studies reviewed shed light on the possibilities of technology and AI in language acquisition. Undergraduate class observation, self-administered text analysis, social information processing theory and experimental research, which involves adjusting variables to see how they affect learning results, were used to gather data. The study’s findings also demonstrate how using CMC platforms encourages students to practice their digital literacy. They gain knowledge on how to move through online spaces, efficiently communicate with a variety of digital tools, and assess the reliability of information sources. Students can communicate with their teachers outside of the classroom via video conferencing software and online discussion boards. This may result in more in-depth discussions and debates as well as greater student engagement.
Information ecosystems in early academic career building: how do researchers in the social sciences and humanities learn the tricks of the trade?

Published: August 2024

AbstractEarly career investigators (ECIs) in the Social Sciences and Humanities need to receive adequate information so that they will be empowered to progress in their academic career and deal with the various evaluation processes that constitute an essential part of their professional development. This article relies on an informational-ecosystemic approach originally developed in the context of resilience studies and crisis communication and uses it as a theoretical framework to analyse and understand the “early academic career building information ecosystems” (EACBIEs), into which ECIs professionally develop. The characteristics of these ecosystems are then refined through the analysis of interviews conducted with ECIs from all around Europe in the framework of the European Network for Research Evaluation in Social Sciences and Humanities (ENRESSH), European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) Action. The analysis reveals the remarkable heterogeneity of the information ecosystems into which early career researchers have to build their career in Europe, articulating a diversity of formal, non-formal and informal learning environments, and several related information channels, as well as showing a geographical spread that covers institutional, national and international levels. Furthermore, although the diverse information channels at hand and geographical levels at which they operate appear in some cases to be complementary, and even mutually reinforcing, they can also, in other cases, be dysfunctional, fragmented and unfair to some extent.
