Creators: name: G. Deepa*, P.D. Gokulan*, S. Rahul, C. Lokeshwaran, K. Senthamil selvan
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: Deflazacort, a corticosteroid employed in the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, lacked a UV method utilizing minimal organic solvent according to our literature review. Therefore, a novel UV method development consuming very little organic solvent was undertaken in this study. Several key validation parameters, including accuracy, linearity, and precision, were evaluated in accordance with ICH guidelines. UV spectroscopic determination was performed at the absorption maximum of 245 nm, employing a mixture of methanol and water as the solvent system. The obtained results underwent statistical validation. The developed method demonstrated simplicity, rapidity, precision, and accuracy, rendering it suitable for UV analysis of deflazacort. In this UV method development, linearity was established within the range of 0.5-8 μg/mL, with a correlation coefficient (r²) of 0.9998.

description: Das SPPC-D soll das Selbstbild von Kindern in den vier Bereichen (1) Kognitive Kompetenz, (2) Sportkompetenz, (3) Peerakzeptanz und (4) Aussehen sowie das bereichsunspezifische Globale Selbstwertgefühl durch 30 verbale Items erfassen (6 pro Subskala). Die deutsche Version beruht auf dem Self-Perception Profile for Children (SPPC) von Harter (1985). Reliabilität: In der deutschen Stichprobe lagen die internen Konsistenzen für alle Subskalen bei Drittklässlern bei Cronbachs Alpha = .74-.81; bei Viertklässlern waren sie meist noch etwas höher. Validität: Die Subskaleninterkorrelationen variierten zwischen r = .25 und r = .50 mit Ausnahme der in beiden Altersgruppen sehr hohen Korrelationen zwischen Globalem Selbstwertgefühl und Aussehen (r = .70-.59). Konfirmatorische Faktorenanalysen mit LISREL VI bestätigten eine gerade noch ausreichende Passung für ein hierarchisches Strukturmodell mit dem Globalen Selbstwertgefühl als übergeordnetem Faktor und den vier bereichsspezifischen Subskalen als untergeordneten Faktoren. Korrelationen mit externen Kriterien wie fachspezifisches Selbstkonzept, Schulnoten, IQ, motorische Koordination, Lehrerurteil Beliebtheit in der Klasse und Einsamkeit bestätigten die Bereichsspezifität der Subskalen.
description: The SPPC-D is designed to measure children's self-image in the four areas of (1) cognitive competence, (2) sports competence, (3) peer acceptance and (4) appearance, as well as the area-unspecific global self-esteem through 30 verbal items (6 per subscale). The German version is based on the Self-Perception Profile for Children (SPPC) by Harter (1985). Reliability: In the German sample, the internal consistencies for all subscales in third graders were Cronbach's Alpha = .74-.81; in fourth graders they were usually slightly higher. Validity: The subscale intercorrelations varied between r = .25 and r = .50 with the exception of the very high correlations between global self-esteem and appearance in both age groups (r = .70-.59). Confirmatory factor analyses with LISREL VI confirmed a just sufficient fit for a hierarchical structural model with global self-esteem as the superordinate factor and the four area-specific subscales as subordinate factors. Correlations with external criteria such as subject-specific self-concept, school grades, IQ, motor coordination, teacher judgement, popularity in class and loneliness confirmed the area specificity of the subscales.

description: Introduction In 2012, the German transplant scandal was uncovered and reported in the national and international media. This article offers an anthropological analysis of the scandal and examines its ‘scandalous’ characteristics by taking a close look at its extraordinary and ordinary features. Methods The article is based on ethnographic research using multiple methods including participant observation, interviewing as well as media and document analysis. Results The transplant scandal in Germany revealed systemic ‘scandalous’ features of the national transplant system. From a significant lack of transparency in decision making, a weak legal framework for accountability, adherence to moralizing rules about alcohol and abstinence, to media coverage that individualized the scandal. Conclusions Looking at extraordinary events such as transplant scandals from an anthropological perspective offers an analysis that goes beyond the singular, scandalous event. An anthropological analysis allows to highlight the ordinary and ambivalent ‘scandalous’ features of transplant medicine It examines transplant medicine at the intersection of biomedicine, politics, and morality.

description: Das PVS ist ein Diagnostikinstrument zur Erfassung von häuslicher Gewalt speziell bei Frauen. Dabei legt es den Fokus auf körperliche und sexualisierte Gewalt. Es besteht aus fünf Items, die jeweils bejaht oder verneint werden können. Eine einzige Bejahung gilt bereits als positives Ergebnis, das für eine häusliche Gewaltbelastung der Frau spricht. Reliabilität: Keine Angaben. Validität: Um die konvergente Validität zu messen, wurden die Ergebnisse des PVS mit dem Index of Spouse Abuse (ISA) verglichen. Von n = 74 Teilnehmerinnen bestimmte das PVS mit den ursprünglichen drei Items (Sensitivität 79%, Spezifität 70%) 36 als positiv, also häusliche Gewalt erlebend, und 38 als negativ. Der ISA wertete von den von dem PVS als positiv identifizierten 22 ebenfalls als positiv und 14 als negativ und bei den von dem PVS als negativ identifizierten Teilnehmerinnen 6 als positiv und 32 als negativ. Von n = 65 Teilnehmerinnen bestimmte das PVS in der 12-Monate Version mit fünf Items (Sensitivität 80%, Spezifität 78%) 29 als positiv und 36 als negativ. Der ISA wertete von den vom PVS als positiv identifizierten 20 ebenfalls als positiv und 9 als negativ und bei den von dem PVS als negativ identifizierten Teilnehmerinnen 5 als positiv und 31 als negativ.
description: The PVS is a diagnostic instrument for identifying domestic violence, especially among women. It focuses on physical and sexualised violence. It consists of five items, each of which can be affirmed or denied. A single affirmative answer is already considered a positive result, which indicates that the woman is exposed to domestic violence. Reliability: No data. Validity: To measure convergent validity, the results of the PVS were compared with the Index of Spouse Abuse (ISA). Of n = 74 participants, the PVS with the original three items (sensitivity 79%, specificity 70%) determined 36 as positive, i.e. experiencing domestic violence, and 38 as negative. Of the 22 participants identified as positive by the PVS, the ISA also rated 22 as positive and 14 as negative, and of the participants identified as negative by the PVS, 6 as positive and 32 as negative. Of n = 65 participants, the PVS in the 12-month version with five items (sensitivity 80%, specificity 78%) determined 29 as positive and 36 as negative. Of the 20 participants identified as positive by the PVS, the ISA also assessed 29 as positive and 9 as negative, and of the participants identified as negative by the PVS, 5 as positive and 31 as negative.

Exploring Lifespan Modulation in C. elegans Through RNAi-Mediated DAF-2 Knockdown Across Variable Temperature Conditions
Creators: name: Vashnavi Vashist
Publisher: name: Capilano University
Year: 2024

description: One important factor influencing lifespan and aging in Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is the insulin/IGF-1 signaling (IIS) pathway, which is controlled by the daf-2 gene. In C. elegans, environmental factors like temperature are known to significantly alter lifespan and stress responses, while RNA interference (RNAi) provides a reliable technique for examining gene function. With an emphasis on comprehending the interplay between genetic and environmental factors in aging, this study investigates the effects of R NAi-mediated knockdown of daf-2 on lifespan across four different temperature conditions (4°C, 10°C, 20°C, and 30°C). Synchronized populations of C. elegans were exposed to daf-2 RNAi and maintained under controlled temperature conditions to assess their lifespan. Although the study is ongoing and results have not yet been collected, it is hypothesized that daf-2 knockdown will result in reduced lifespan relative to controls, with the most pronounced effects occurring at temperature extremes (4°C and 30°C). This research seeks to elucidate the complex interplay between IIS signaling and environmental stressors in lifespan regulation, contributing to the broader understanding of genetic and environmental influences on aging and resilience mechanisms.

description: In this research note, I explore the extent to which affectively polarized voters drive winner and loser effects in electoral confidence. Using panel data from the ANES 2016–2020 Panel Sample, I present statistical evidence suggesting that those who were most likely to express a different level of electoral confidence in 2020 relative to 2016 were those who strongly “liked” a candidate while simultaneously strongly “disliking” that candidate’s opponent. To a lesser extent, those who were more polarized in their feelings towards the Democratic and Republican Parties were also more likely to exhibit a change in electoral confidence. Additionally, affective polarization towards the candidates appears to play a greater role in electoral confidence than affective polarization towards political parties for less partisan voters. Taken together, the evidence suggests that movement in electoral confidence is largely an emotional reaction to the election results. This research highlights the consequences of the broader shift to candidate-focused campaigning on electoral confidence in American elections.

description: Tree roots contribute significantly to soil strength on hillslopes. In the case of wildfires, this effect may abruptly vanish and be lacking for a considerable period of time depending on the resistance and resilience of the forest. Despite its importance, quantitative data on the impact and dynamics of wildfires on slope stabilization is still lacking. We use the study case of the Fagus sylvatica L. to quantify the medium-term evolution of root reinforcement and its effect on slope stability in fire-injured forests. In the study, we upscale root reinforcement using field data for the calibration of the Root Bundle Model and detailed information on forest structure in 244 plots, and calculate the spatio-temporal dynamics of forest protective capacity using a three-dimensional probabilistic slope stability model (slideforNET) for different site types. In unburnt and low-burn forests, the protective capacity was found to remain constant over time. Forests hit by moderate burns continue to provide adequate protection for shallow (depth < 0.5 m) and cohesive soils only, whereas in the case of high severity fires, the protective capacity vanishes for 15 years and an increased shallow landslide probability remains for at least 40 years. These conditions call for appropriate sylvicultural post-fire measures.

description: Chronic heart failure as a complication causes disability and death of many people. Despite the improvement of treatment methods and the abundance of modern medicinal methods, chronic heart failure remains one of the most urgent problems of human society. Even in the most developed countries of the world, the incidence of chronic heart failure remains high. The pathogenesis of chronic heart failure develops on the basis of several complex mechanisms and models, and requires a pathogenetic approach to treatment.

description: In semi-arid sub-Saharan Africa, farming populations face harsh climatic conditions but also very unequal and dynamic social processes that affect their resilience. This study addresses aspects of power and social justice related to the social-ecological system of the Niayes coastal region of Senegal and examines the potential of agroecology to improve the adaptive capacity of smallholder farmers. We performed a knowledge co-production process with a local farmer union to identify the main social-ecological nexuses that matter for smallholder farmers, their dynamics and the influence of powerful actors and institutions on them. We also look at the potential actions of the farmer union under the banner of agroecology to transform these dynamics. We found that social-ecological dynamics involve reinforcing feedback loops that undermine the resilience of smallholder farmers and that powerful actors such as agribusinesses have a strong influence on these processes. Union actions promoting agroecology have enhanced system thinking and related solutions, but observed social justice claims are very recent and have a limited scope. Our findings expand the notion of resilience grabbing, understood as the undermining of resilience through the loss of commons, to include systemic degradations due to direct and indirect actions of involved stakeholders. We also propose to expand the notion of resilience justice vertically, integrating procedural and recognition justice, and horizontally, integrating linked social-ecological issues. We conclude that agroecology can become a transformative bridge from resilience grabbing to resilience justice, but must be more sensitive to power relations, in particular around labour.

Planning, design and use of the public space Wahlenpark (Zurich, Switzerland): functional, visual and semiotic openness
Creators: name: Kaspar, Heidi
name: Bühler, Elisabeth
Year: 2009

description: Wahlenpark is currently one of Zurich’s most recent urban public parks. It is located in a neighbourhood which has been totally rebuilt during the last 20 years. Based on a constructivist conception of space, this article looks at the kind of spaces that have been, and still are, produced at Wahlenpark. It is argued that various groups of actors are, and have been, involved in this production of spaces: city planners in the role of constructors, landscape architects in the role of designers and «the population» in the role of users. By defining requirements, city planners constitute space, at first on a mental level «only». As constructors they perform – through the designers’ plans – a powerful spacing act: they physically construct a park. Park users in their dual role as actors and «park element» subsequently (re-)produce manifold spaces by uniting social goods and people to spaces (see Löw 2001). It is argued that openness is an important reference point in the production and appropriation of space at Wahlenpark by planners, designers and users, albeit with different meanings. The statements of park users show that they experience openness differently, sometimes even in a contradictory manner, thereby highlighting the variability of subjective perception, resulting in both the inclusion and exclusion of the perceiver. In view of greater inclusiveness of public spaces, a better understanding of the manner in which people perceive and use these spaces is needed.

description: Background:One of the most prominent characteristics of fast food and take-away food is that it is convenient, meaning that it saves time, it reduces therequired effort for food provisioning and culinary skills are transferred. Studiesthat investigate the unique effect of these factors on dietary behaviours arelacking. Therefore, the present study aimed to examine the associations of time,effort, time spent cooking and cooking skills with fast food and take-away foodconsumption.Methods:Between May and June 2009, a random postal survey was sent out to2323 Swiss households. The response rate was 44% (n= 1017). Spearman rankcorrelations and logistic regression analysis were used to determine the multiplerelationships of fast food and take-away food intake with gender, age, educa-tional level, income, mental effort, physical effort, working status, cooking skillsand time spent cooking.Results:Fast food consumption was found to be associated with gender (males)[odds ratio (OR) = 1.61,P< 0.05], age (40–59 years) (OR = 0.41,P< 0.001),age (‡60 years) (OR = 0.13,P< 0.001), time spent cooking (OR = 0.99;P< 0.01) and cooking skills (OR = 0.81,P< 0.05). Take-away food consump-tion was found to be associated with gender (males) (OR = 1.86,P< 0.01), age(40–59 years) (OR = 0.58,P< 0.01), age (‡60 years) (OR = 0.28,P< 0.001),income (OR = 1.11,P<0.01), education (middle) (OR = 0.65,P< 0.05) andmental effort (OR = 1.25,P< 0.05).Conclusions:Take-away and fast food consumption are behaviours that sharethe same demographic determinants of age and gender, although they areinfluenced by different life style determinants. It is very likely that motivationsrelated to time, effort and cooking are of increasing importance for food deci-sions in our society.

Corporate Social Responsibility in Family Firms: Status and Future Directions of a Research Field

description: This systematic literature review contributes to the increasing interest regarding corporate social responsibility (CSR) in family firms—a research field that has developed considerably in the last few years. It now provides the opportunity to take a holistic view on the relationship dynamics—i.e., drivers, activities, outcomes, and contextual influences—of family firms with CSR, thus enabling a more coherent organization of current research and a sounder understanding of the phenomenon. To conceptualize the research field, we analyzed 122 peer-reviewed articles published in highly ranked journals identifying the main issues examined. The results clearly show a lack of research regarding CSR outcomes in family firms. Although considered increasingly crucial in family firm research, a study investigating family outcomes (e.g., family community status, family emotional well-being), as opposed to firm outcomes, is missing. This literature review outlines the current state of research and contributes to the actual debate on CSR in family firms by discussing how family firms can use CSR activities as strategic management tools. Moreover, our analysis shows a black box indicating how CSR links different antecedents and outcomes. The black box is significant since firms generally need to know where to allocate their scarce resources to generate the best outcomes. We identify nine research questions based on these findings, which we hope will inspire future research.

description: The rise of 3D-printing technology is opening up new possibilities for arranging two or more sensorily distinct phases in a specific manner, and thus potentially creating new sensory experiences. Particularly interesting is the spatial configuration of multiple phases for adjusting flavor and texture perception without changing the overall composition, as such configuration would represent a step towards individualization. In the present study, different 3D configurations of two rheologically and texturally very distinct phases were investigated as to their effect on mechanical properties and sensory perception. Chocolate and cream cheese masses were arranged three-dimensionally (cube-in-cube; layered) by additive manufacturing and characterized by measuring penetration resistance as well as by hedonic, descriptive, and temporal dominance of sensation (TDS) methodologies. By comparing samples with identical phase ratios, three characteristic texture profiles could be generated. How much the samples were liked depended significantly on perceived mouthfeel/texture and product hardness. The mouthfeel was in turn determined by the 3D configuration of the phases. TDS characterization showed either two or three dominance areas of one of the phases, depending on whether chocolate or cream cheese was perceived initially. While the dominance time of chocolate increased with increasing chocolate fraction in samples with chocolate as the external phase, the dominance time of cream cheese in samples with cream cheese as the external phase hardly changed with increasing phase fraction. This was mainly attributed to the very different rheological phase properties of cream cheese and chocolate. Based on the TDS evolution at the later stages of consumption that is rather independent of the initial configuration, the renewal of the relevant interface in the oral cavity was mainly determined by the mixing kinetics of both phases, and secondarily by what phase was perceived to be dominant before a phase dominance change took place. This study shows that in defining the 3D configuration of phases with differing rheological properties, there is considerable potential for adjusting the sensory properties. This is a step towards broader coverage of consumer needs through 3D product design without the need for formulation adjustments.
Origins of Relative Age Effects in Youth Football - A Nationwide Analysis

description: Introduction: Relative age effects (RAEs) refer to the overrepresentation of players born earlier in the selection year compared to late-born players within the same age category. To date, the origins and mechanisms of RAEs are still unclear. To evaluate the development of RAEs in terms of age group and selection level, we analyzed data of all registered child and adolescent football players in Switzerland. Methods: Age category, selection level, and birthdate from all licensed 101,991 Swiss child and youth football players assigned to a specific team [9,149 girls (9.0%) and 92,842 boys (91.0%); age range: 4.6–19.6 years] were analyzed. Additionally, out of 1,128 clubs, 54 clubs provided their documented waiting lists (1,224 players). Birthdate distributions were split by age category, sex, and birth quarter (Q1 = January to March, Q4 = October to December). RAEs were calculated using odds ratios (Q1 vs. Q4) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Results: We found small RAEs among U8 players (OR 1.44 [95% CI 1.31, 1.59]) and U10 (OR 1.24 [95% CI 1.16, 1.32]). The RAE was negligible in all other age categories, independent of gender. In children's football, 5,584 (71.3%) teams performed selections. In teams without selection, there were no obvious RAEs. However, teams with selections for the same age category showed small RAEs with an overrepresentation of Q1 athletes in the first team (OR = 1.29 [95% CI 1.24, 1.35]) and inverse RAEs with an underrepresentation of Q1 athletes in the last team (OR = 0.85 [95% CI 0.82, 0.89]). Only small RAEs were observed on the waiting lists for the U8 (OR = 1.48 [1.13, 1.95]). Discussion and Conclusion: RAEs have a small, but consistent effect on participation in Swiss children's football at the grassroots level. Contrary to expectations, no inverse RAEs were found on the waiting lists. Nonetheless, first time coach selections seem to be the origin of RAEs. To protect young athletes from discrimination, RAE biases should be analyzed and eliminated at all stages of sport participation, selection, and dropout situations. Modifications to the organizational structure of sport and athlete development systems are recommended to prevent RAE-related discrimination in youth sports.

Une retraitée sur deux n'a pas de rente du IIe pilier : L’écart entre les sexes est énorme en matière de fonds de prévoyance. Les femmes bénéficiaires d’une rente touchent 37 % moins que les hommes. Le fait que nombre d’entre elles n’ont pas pu se constituer une prévoyance professionnelle en est la cause principale

description: Une étude de la Haute école spécialisée bernoise Travail social a analysé en profondeur, pour la première fois, les rentes de vieillesse des hommes et des femmes en Suisse. Des différences considérables apparaissent, puisque l’écart s’élève à 37 % et correspond à celui observé en Europe. Ces grandes différences se trouvent exclusivement dans la prévoyance professionnelle et l’épargne du IIIe pilier, qui bénéficie d’avantages fiscaux. Un taux d’activité professionnelle élevé et constant des femmes et la diminution des différences salariales pourraient les faire baisser. Le choix du modèle familial, soit la répartition de l’activité lucrative et du travail au sein de la famille, a également une grande importance pour la prévoyance vieillesse.
