description: Barchans are eolian dunes of crescent shape found on Earth, Mars and other celestial bodies. Among the different types of barchan-barchan interaction, there is one, known as chasing, in which the dunes remain close but without touching each other. In this paper, we investigate the origins of this barchan-barchan dune repulsion by carrying out grain-scale numerical computations in which a pair of granular heaps is deformed by the fluid flow into barchan dunes that interact with each other. In our simulations, data such as position, velocity and resultant force are computed for each individual particle at each time step, allowing us to measure details of both the fluid and grains that explain the repulsion. We show the trajectories of grains, time-average resultant forces, and mass balances for each dune, and that the downstream barchan shrinks faster than the upstream one, keeping, thus, a relatively high velocity although in the wake of the upstream barchan. In its turn, this fast shrinkage is caused by the flow disturbance, which induces higher erosion on the downstream barchan and its circumvention by grains leaving the upstream dune. Our results help explaining the mechanisms behind the distribution of barchans in dune fields found on Earth and Mars.

description: Religious properties are the centerfold of small rural communities, often functioning as the catalysis and setting for local community social life. Understanding the role of these properties within the field of historic preservation provides an avenue for establishing significance within the National Register program. Historic religious properties not only serve spiritual needs within communities, but they also are the settings for many components of social life, as meeting places, local wayfinding landmarks, cornerstones to familial histories, homes for clubs, educational resources, all contributing to the expansive story of local history. I assert that historic preservation practitioners must make greater efforts to expand their gaze in order to build upon existing National Register frameworks, for the purposes of critically evaluating these properties under Criterion A. Many of these properties are first evaluated during reconnaissance level survey work, typically under environmental review or Certified Local Government survey work. This study examines the ways in which historic preservation practitioners currently approach the survey and evaluation of religious properties and provides advice for considering small rural communities as the context of the evaluation. This study provides expanded ways to approach survey work, based on available National Register guidance and building on my own experiences as a historic preservation practitioner. Drawing upon the National Register program and studies of place attachment and sense of place in aligned fields, I present three case studies that incorporate the components of social history and community development through the interactions of people most closely tied to the place. Ultimately, rural religious properties offer deep insight into the ways in which communities create local social history.

description: Employee engagement, and the competitive edge it is perceived to provide to organizations, is of considerable interest to the fields of business, human resource management (HRM), psychology, and human resource development (HRD). Yet, few scholars have chosen to focus on the identity- and relationally based factors that may impact LGBTQ+ experiences of employee engagement or disengagement. Leveraging the insights of stigma, shame, heteronormativity, queer, belongingness and spillover, organizational justice, and critical HRD and HRM theories, this dissertation represents the first quantitative, explanatory analysis that includes LGBTQ+ and non-LGBTQ+ perceptions of organizational belonging and organizational justice in the workplace to identify and provide awareness of where and how we fall short in promoting employee engagement. The study design consisted of a quantitative, cross-sectional survey with closed, Likert-scale questions supplemented with three qualitative, open-ended questions. Quantitative data from LGBTQ+ (258 responses) and non-LGBTQ+ (244 responses) employees in the United States was analyzed using mediated regression. Results showed Organizational Belonging (β = .29, p < .001), Procedural Justice (β = .29, p < .001), and Distributive Justice (β = .29, p < .001) had direct and indirect mediating effects on the relationship between sexual orientation and employee engagement. Qualitative themes reinforced the quantitative findings; progressive organizations whose policies and supportive relationship practices embody and enforce diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) by championing the voices of LGBTQ+ employees are perceived to advance organizational culture. This study offers implications for business, HRM, and HRD researchers, scholars, and practitioners to support erosion of gendered norms (e.g., heteronormativity, cisnormativity) within the employee engagement literature and practical applications through DEIB initiatives for including LGBTQ+ perspectives to advance employee engagement for all workplace identities.

description: Regular physical activity can have a positive effect on health at any age. Today’s lifestyles, however, can often be characterised as sedentary. Therefore, the promotion of physical activity and sports has become an integral part of public health measures. The representative data of adults aged 18 to 79 years in Germany obtained from the “German Health Interview and Examination Survey for Adults” (DEGS1) provide an overview of self-estimated current physical activity behaviour. The results show that one third of the adult population claims to pay close attention to reaching a sufficient level of physical activity and one fourth participates in sports for at least 2 h/week on a regular basis. Thus, the percentage of adults regularly engaged in sports has increased compared to the previous “German National Health Interview and Examination Survey 1998”. Still, four out of five adults do not achieve at least 2.5 h/week of moderate-intensity physical activity as recommended by the World Health Organisation. Consequently, future individual-level and population-level interventions should focus on target group-specific measures while continuing to promote regular physical activity in all segments of the population.

description: The analysis focuses on the connection between socioeconomic status (SES) and five health outcomes in the 18- to 79-year-old population of Germany. It uses data from the German Health Interview and Examination Survey for Adults (DEGS1) which the Robert Koch Institute conducted in the period from 2008–2011 (n=8,152). Socioeconomic status is recorded via a multidimensional index which includes information on education attainment, occupational status and household income. The results show that persons with a low socioeconomic status have a self-rated health status which is worse than that of persons with a medium or high socioeconomic status, and that they have diabetes more frequently. They also have a higher risk of depressive symptoms, obesity and no sports activity. The results illustrate that health chances and the risk of illness are still very socially unevenly distributed, thus emphasising the significance of political interventions to reduce health inequalities.

Kontaktlinsen kaufen fast nur Personen unter 40 Jahren. Der Markt für Brillen ist für die Käufer ab 45 Jahre besonders groß, denn die Weitsichtigkeit wird fast ausschließlich mit einer Brille korrigiert. Schwerhörigkeit ist bei 8% der Erwachsenen verbreitet, aber nur 2,5% der Bevölkerung im Alter von 18 bis 79 Jahren haben eine Hörhilfe. Die Schwerhörigen sind zu 59% Männer und 41% Frauen. Die Schwerhörigkeit steigt steil mit dem Alter an. Eine Behinderung geben 12,4% der Befragten an. Es existieren sowohl regionale als auch geschlechtsspezifische Unterschiede. Mit zunehmendem Alter und der Anzahl der Krankheiten nimmt der Anteil der Behinderten deutlich zu.
description: More than 2/3 of German adults are using seeing aids. Individuals who are wearing eyeglasses are consulting their opthalmic practitioner about every 3rd year while persons with contact lenses see their practitioner every 2nd year. Almost only people under age 40 are buying contact lenses. The market for spectacles is very large for consumers older than 45 years since hypermetropia is mainly corrected with eyeglasses in this age group. The prevalence of hard of hearing is 8% for adults and is increasing with age, but only 2,5% of the study population are equipped with hearing aids. The distribution between males and females is 59% vs. 41% for hard of hearing.12,4% of the interviewed persons report a handicap. There are regional and gender-specific differences. The proportion of handicapped person raises with increasing age and counts of diseases.

description: Die HIV-Epidemie in Deutschland kann bis zu den frühen neunziger Jahren am besten mittels Back-calculation-Modellen beschrieben werden. Solche von den bereits diagnostizierten AIDS-Fällen aus rückrechnenden Modelle können prinzipiell die aktuellere Entwicklung der HIV-Epidemie der letzten drei bis vier Jahre nicht gut erfassen. Darüber hinaus verliert diese Methodik durch die stärkeren Einflüsse der Behandlung der HIV-Infektion auf den natürlichen Infektionsverlauf an Aussagekraft. Zur Beschreibung des aktuellen Verlaufes der HIV-Epidemie muss man sich mangels anderer Datenquellen auf die Meldungen von HIV-Diagnosen stützen. Danach dürfte die Zahl der jährlichen HIV-Neuinfektionen in Deutschland seit einigen Jahren relativ stabil zwischen 2000 und 2500 pro Jahr liegt. Größte Betroffenengruppe sind noch immer homo- und bisexuelle Männer, i.v.-Drogengebraucher sind von Migranten aus Hochprävalenzregionen und heterosexuell infizierten Personen auf den zahlenmäßig vierten Rang verdrängt worden. Eine Zunahme von Risikoverhalten und HIV-Neuinfektionen kann derzeit in Deutschland weder bestätigt, noch mit Sicherheit ausgeschlossen werden. Zur frühzeitigen Erfassung einer Änderung von Risikoverhalten wäre eine Verbesserung der epidemiologischen Erfassung von STDs mit kurzen Inkubationszeiten wünschenswert.

description: Invasive fungal diseases (IFD) due to opportunistic fungi are commonly treated using empirical antifungal therapy. Therefore, a comprehensive study of organisms associated with IFD is essential to define successful empiric therapies in each setting. Current diagnostic tests, such as culture, histology and serology are suboptimal, leading to delays in the initiation of antifungal therapies and resulting in high mortality rates despite the availability of several new antifungal agents. Using molecular methods to identify fungal pathogens directly from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues is emerging as a diagnostic approach. The goal of this molecular approach is to complement conventional diagnostic tests through the reliable detection and identification of fungal nucleic acids or antigens in tissues so as to direct antiinfective therapies and improve patient outcomes. Here we review challenges and recent advances in the identification of fungal pathogens from tissue samples by conventional and molecular methods.

Typhimurium DT104 in Veröffentlichungen der einschlägigen Fachliteratur als Epidemietyp der Salmonellose des Menschen beigemessen wird, wurde zum Anlaß genommen, die Ergebnisse der Lebensmitteluntersuchungen im LUA N im Hinblick auf das Vorkommen dieses Klons zu überprüfen. Danach spielte die Serovar S. Enteritidis, insbesondere PT4/6, im nordbayerischen Raum bei Lebensmitteln vom Jahr 1987 bis 1996 die führende Rolle. Im Zeitraum von 1990 bis 1996 erreichten die S. Enteritidis-Nachweise einen durchschnittlichen Anteil von rund 41 %, während S. Typhimurium mit einem mittleren Anteil von rund 18 % lediglich die zweite Stelle der Salmonella-Nachweise einnahm. Der im humanmedizinischen Bereich als wachsendes Problem angesehene Lysotyp DT104 der Serovar S. Typhimurium wurde bei Lebensmitteln in den Jahren 1990 und 1995 gar nicht, 1991 bis 1993 jeweils bei zwei, 1994 bei vier und 1996 bei insgesamt neun (28,1%) Isolaten ermittelt. Eine retrospektive Analyse zeigte, daß der S. Typhimurium-Lysotyp DT104 bei durch Lebensmittel bedingten Ausbrüchen in Nordbayern nicht ermittelt wurde. Einige Befunde zeigen jedoch, daß er bei Einzelerkrankungen von Kindern in Bayern nachweisbar war.

THE ISSUE OF STRESS IN UZBEK PHONETICS: THEORY AND PRACTICE

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: This article investigates the theoretical and practical aspects of stress (accentuation) in Uzbek phonetics, focusing on its classification, placement rules, phonological patterns, and implications for pronunciation and orthography. Uzbek, as a Turkic language, presents a unique system of stress that differs significantly from both Indo-European and Semitic languages. While generally considered to exhibit fixed final stress in standard forms, actual spoken Uzbek shows considerable variation depending on dialectal differences, syntactic structure, word formation, and borrowed elements. The article explores how stress interacts with morphological boundaries, affects vowel reduction and intonation, and plays a role in speech rhythm and meaning differentiation. Using a combination of descriptive analysis, field recordings, and a corpus-based review of stress placement in spontaneous speech, this study reveals patterns of regularity and exceptions that are pedagogically and linguistically significant. Practical implications include the development of pronunciation models for Uzbek as a foreign language and the need for stress-sensitive speech synthesis tools. The findings emphasize the necessity of integrating phonetic theory with applied linguistic instruction and propose steps toward standardizing stress models in dictionaries and educational materials.

description: DivIVA proteins are curvature-sensitive membrane binding proteins that recruit other proteins to the poles and the division septum. They consist of a conserved N-terminal lipid binding domain fused to a less conserved C-terminal domain. DivIVA homologues interact with different proteins involved in cell division, chromosome segregation, genetic competence, or cell wall synthesis. It is unknown how DivIVA interacts with these proteins, and we used the interaction of Bacillus subtilis DivIVA with MinJ and RacA to investigate this. MinJ is a transmembrane protein controlling division site selection, and the DNA-binding protein RacA is crucial for chromosome segregation during sporulation. Initial bacterial two-hybrid experiments revealed that the C terminus of DivIVA appears to be important for recruiting both proteins. However, the interpretation of these results is limited since it appeared that C-terminal truncations also interfere with DivIVA oligomerization. Therefore, a chimera approach was followed, making use of the fact that Listeria monocytogenes DivIVA shows normal polar localization but is not biologically active when expressed in B. subtilis. Complementation experiments with different chimeras of B. subtilis and L. monocytogenes DivIVA suggest that MinJ and RacA bind to separate DivIVA domains. Fluorescence microscopy of green fluorescent protein-tagged RacA and MinJ corroborated this conclusion and suggests that MinJ recruitment operates via the N-terminal lipid binding domain, whereas RacA interacts with the C-terminal domain. We speculate that this difference is related to the cellular compartments in which MinJ and RacA are active: the cell membrane and the cytoplasm, respectively.

description: Human noroviruses (HuNoVs) cause significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, despite substantial efforts, a small-animal model for HuNoV has not been described to date. Since "humanized" mice have been successfully used to study human-tropic pathogens in the past, we challenged BALB/c mice deficient in recombination activation gene (Rag) 1 or 2 and common gamma chain (γc) (Rag-γc) engrafted with human CD34(+) hematopoietic stem cells, nonengrafted siblings, and immunocompetent wild-type controls with pooled stool isolates from patients positive for HuNoV. Surprisingly, both humanized and nonhumanized BALB/c Rag-γc-deficient mice supported replication of a GII.4 strain of HuNoV, as indicated by increased viral loads over input. In contrast, immunocompetent wild-type BALB/c mice were not infected. An intraperitoneal route of infection and the BALB/c genetic background were important for facilitating a subclinical HuNoV infection of Rag-γc-deficient mice. Expression of structural and nonstructural proteins was detected in cells with macrophage-like morphology in the spleens and livers of BALB/c Rag-γc-deficient mice, confirming the ability of HuNoV to replicate in a mouse model. In summary, HuNoV replication in BALB/c Rag-γc-deficient mice is dependent on the immune-deficient status of the host but not on the presence of human immune cells and provides the first genetically manipulable small-animal model for studying HuNoV infection. IMPORTANCE Human noroviruses are a significant cause of viral gastroenteritis worldwide, resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. Antivirals and vaccines are currently not available, in part due to the inability to study these viruses in a genetically manipulable, small-animal model. Herein, we report the first mouse model for human noroviruses. This model will accelerate our understanding of human norovirus biology and provide a useful resource for evaluating antiviral therapies.

description: Background: The number of patients seeking health care is a central indicator that may serve several different purposes: (1) as a proxy for the impact on the burden of the primary care system; (2) as a starting point to estimate the number of persons ill with influenza; (3) as the denominator data for the calculation of case fatality rate and the proportion hospitalized (severity indicators); (4) for economic calculations. In addition, reliable estimates of burden of disease and on the health care system are essential to communicate the impact of influenza to health care professionals, public health professionals and to the public. Methodology/Principal Findings: Using German syndromic surveillance data, we have developed a novel approach to describe the seasonal variation of medically attended acute respiratory infections (MAARI) and estimate the excess MAARI attributable to influenza. The weekly excess inside a period of influenza circulation is estimated as the difference between the actual MAARI and a MAARI-baseline, which is established using a cyclic regression model for counts. As a result, we estimated the highest ARI burden within the last 10 years for the influenza season 2004/05 with an excess of 7.5 million outpatient visits (CI95% 6.8–8.0). In contrast, the pandemic wave 2009 accounted for one third of this burden with an excess of 2.4 million (CI95% 1.9–2.8). Estimates can be produced for different age groups, different geographic regions in Germany and also in real time during the influenza waves.

description: Accurate determination of stellar parameters is crucial for understandingstellar evolution, exoplanet habitability, and chemical peculiarities in stellaratmospheres. Our work aims to improve the precision of predicting stellarproperties—effective temperature (Teff), metallicity ([Fe/H]), and surfacegravity (log g)—by leveraging advanced machine learning techniques. [1]We employ a medium-density neural network with a non-linear activationfunction, trained using a dataset of 588 F-type stars selected from theXSHOOTER, [2] ELODIE 3.0, MILES, and Indo-US stellar libraries. [3]Focusing on hydrogen Balmer lines and metallic lines in the visible range(390–550 nm), as given by the LICK/ADS database, [4] we reprocess stellarspectra through pseudo-continuum normalization, equivalent widthmeasurements, and model fitting using the SPECTRUM code within theiSpec library. [5] Given the limited and potentially noisy nature of thedataset, Bayesian regularization [6] is implemented to prevent overfittingand enhance generalization. Our study also investigates the spectralevolution of F-type stars across their population distribution—spanningdwarfs, subgiants, and giants—providing insight into how key spectralfeatures change with stellar age and composition. Since F-type stars sharemany properties with G- and K-type stars, which are known to hosthabitable zones, a refined understanding of their stellar characteristics isessential for exoplanet studies. Moreover, our model can identify chemicallypeculiar F-type stars, [7] particularly those in pre-main-sequence stages, bycorrelating fundamental parameters with spectral line strengths. Byimproving the precision of stellar parameter determination, our workcontributes to a deeper understanding of F-type stars, their potential forhosting habitable planets, and the broader implications for stellarastrophysics

description: Hintergrund: Das Monitoring erhebt kontinuierlich Daten auf Bevölkerungsebene, die die Bedarfsermittlung und den Wirkungsnachweis von Maßnahmen der Prävention und Gesundheitsförderung unterstützen. Je nach Art der herangezogenen Daten lassen sich Gesundheits-, Interventions-, Medien- oder Politikmonitoring unterscheiden. Ergebnisse: Mit dem Gesundheitsmonitoring lassen sich die Verbreitung von Erkrankungen, Risiko- und Schutzfaktoren sowie die Inanspruchnahme von Leistungen des Gesundheitswesens beobachten. Das Interventionsmonitoring führt Daten über die praktische Umsetzung und die Wirkung von Maßnahmen der Prävention und Gesundheitsförderung zusammen. Mit Politikmonitoring lassen sich die Gesetzgebung und die von der Politik veranlassten Programme verfolgen. Das Medienmonitoring liefert eine Analyse der Berichterstattung zu gesundheitsrelevanten Themen in den Medien. Schlussfolgerung: Der erweiterte „Public Health Action Cycle“ zeigt, auf welche Weise die Daten der verschiedenen Monitoringsysteme zur Entwicklung datengestützter und wissensbasierter Maßnahmen der Prävention und Gesundheitsförderung beitragen.
description: Background: Monitoring continuously collects data on the population level, which supports the identification of needs and effects of prevention and health promotion. Depending on the nature of the data used, a distinction can be made between health monitoring, intervention monitoring, media monitoring, and policy monitoring. Results: Health monitoring allows the spread of diseases, risk and protective factors, and the use of health care services to be observed. Intervention monitoring brings together information concerning the practical implementation and impact of measures of prevention and health promotion. Policy monitoring provides an analysis of health-related legislation and programmes initiated by politics. Media monitoring observes the coverage of health issues in the media. Conclusion: The advanced public health action cycle shows how data from different monitoring systems contribute to develop data-driven and knowledge-based measures of prevention and health promotion.
