title: Ein neues Fragment von Konrad Steckels Übersetzung des Reiseberichts des Odorico da Pordenone (Klosterneuburg Cod. 1065)
Creators: name: Bauer, Julian
Year: 2017

description: Gilbert Strasmann besorgte die kritische Ausgabe der Übertragung des Chinareiseberichts von Odorico de Pordenone durch Konrad Steckel. Seit der Veröffentlichung 1968 gab es, bedingt durch die unveränderte Handschriftensituation, keinen Grund für etwaige Nachträge. Durch einen Handschriftenfund in Klosterneuburg, bei dem es sich um ein Fragment einer Abschrift der deutschen Übersetzung der Reise nach China von Odorico da Pordenone handelt, wurde dies nun notwendig. Die Aufgabe der Masterarbeit ist nichts anderes, als eben diesen Nachtrag zu liefern. Strasmann (1968) nennt in seiner Ausgabe noch vier Handschriften; dies war zu korrigieren. Bei der gefundenen Handschrift handelt es sich um den letzten Text des Klosterneuburger Codex 1065; die Sammelhandschrift als CCL 1065 an sich war zwar dem Inventar bekannt, jedoch blieb verborgen, dass es sich bei einem nicht weiter identifizierten und stark beschädigten Text (206ar–217) um eine Übertragung Konrad Steckels handelte. Das Hauptaugenmerk der vorliegenden Masterarbeit lag darin, die neue Handschrift in einen Überlieferungszusammenhang einzuordnen. Strasmann scheidet in seinem Handschriften-Stammbaum zwei „Äste“ der Steckelschen Überlieferung: Die Handschriftengruppe, die einer Vorlage Z* folgen, sind B (Cgm. 7364, ca. 1455) und C (Badische Landesbibliothek Cod. L. 1603, 1466). Hingegen folgt die älteste Hs. A (Cod. 1083, 1425) und die jüngste D (München 4° M. Mon. 22, ca. 1490) einer Vorlage Y*. Zur Beantwortung der möglichen Überlieferungssituation und zur Erschließung der bislang nicht identifizierten Handschrift, wurde der Text vollständig und getreu abgedruckt und dem Transkript der Hs. E ein Variantenapparat beigegeben, welcher alle nennenswerten Einstellungen gegenüber den übrigen Hss., wie sie in der Ausgabe Strasmanns angegeben sind, enthält. Dem eigentlichen Textes der Hs. E, mitsamt des Variantenapparats, stellten wir eine Beschreibung des Cod. 1065, und insbesondere des Seitenbereichs der Hs. E, voran. Dem folgte die Geschichte des Textes. Die relativ junge Abschrift E steht in keinem direkten Abschreibverhältnis zu den übrigen, bekannten Handschriften, griff auf einen umfangreicheren, also wohl älteren, Textzeugen (X*) zurück, behielt größtenteils den textlichen Umfang der Vorlage und interpolierte an Stellen, die ihm, entweder aus Unwissenheit oder zu großer sprachlicher Distanz, unverständlich erschienen.
On the dynamics of two photons interacting with a two-qubit coherent feedback network}

description: The purpose of this paper is to study the dynamics of a quantum coherent feedback network composed of two two-level systems (qubits) driven by two counter-propagating photons, one in each input channel. The coherent feedback network enhances the nonlinear photon-photon interaction inside the feedback loop. By means of quantum stochastic calculus and the input-output framework, the analytic form of the steady-state output two-photon state is derived. Based on the analytic form, the applications on the Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) interferometer and marginally stable single-photon devices using this coherent feedback structure have been demonstrated. The difference between continuous-mode and single-mode few-photon states is demonstrated.

title: Grammatikerwerb bei bilingualen Vorschulkindern
Creators: name: Muñoz Izarra, Lorena
Year: 2017

description: Zweisprachigkeit sowie Spracheinfluss im bilingualen Spracherwerb bei Kindern sind Themen die in der Wissenschaft ausgiebig studiert worden sind, die Fachliteratur ist umfangreich. Jedoch sind epistemologische Arbeiten in der kontrastiven Grammatik, insbesondere bei Spanisch-Deutsch bilingualen Vorschulkindern, eher eine Rarität. Vor allem im grammatikalischen Erwerb sind die möglichen Interferenzen bei der Verbstellung beider Sprachen eher wenig erforscht worden. Es entsteht an dem Punkt nicht nur die Problematik der Definition von Zweisprachigkeit, sondern auch inwiefern der Spracheinfluss sich im bilingualen Sprachererb manifestiert. Ausgegangen wird von der Annahme, dass die möglichen Interferenzen, die bei der Verbstellung zwischen den zwei Sprachen Deutsch und Spanisch bei zweisprachigen Kindern vorkommen mögen, vom vorhandenen grammatikalischen Muster, welches in der Sprache A und/oder in der Sprache B vorhanden ist, abhängig sind. Der Fokus der Dissertation wird jedoch nicht nur auf die Definition der Begriffstermini und deren unterschiedliche Auslegungen gelegt werden, die hier als Erklärung dienen, es soll der Verbstellungserwerb bei den Probanden, vor allem die Beeinflussung des Deutschen auf die spanische Sprache, die Frequenz der beobachtbaren Interferenzen und die Entwicklung des Verbstellungserwerbs sowie die Verbalmorphologie in Bezug auf Tempus und Modus analysiert werden.
description: Bilingualism as well as language influence on bilingual language acquisition in children are topics that have been studied extensively in the sciences, and the literature is substantial. However, epistemological work in contrastive grammar, especially in Spanish-German bilingual preschool children, is rather scarce. Most notably, the possible interferences in the verb position of both languages during grammar acquisition have not yet been researched comprehensively. My study assumes that possible verb position interferences between the Spanish and German languages by bilingual children are dependent on the grammatical pattern available of language A and/or language B. This means that the dominance of one language over another is not the only decisively influential factor, but that both the dominant and the subordinate or less used language can influence the other grammatically. The focus of the thesis is the analysis of verb position acquisition in the test subjects, especially the influence of German in the Spanish language, the frequency of observable interference and the development of the verb position acquisition and verbal morphology regarding tense and mode.

description: After a failed transition to democracy in the 1990s in Togo, the opposition took refuge in Ghana, outside of the regime’s reach. Why and how did the regime react to transnational dissent? Analyzing an unpublished RPT-produced press review and the opposition press in Ghana and Togo, Raunet argues that the Togolese regime used the foreign press, the language of legality, and the politics of belonging to consolidate itself and shape a public image of apparent legitimacy. She suggests that the skillful adaptation of legitimation narratives is key in understanding the “internal logic” of authoritarian regimes and their prospects of survival.
description: Après l’échec d’une transition démocratique au Togo dans les années 1990, l’opposition s’est réfugiée au Ghana, hors de la portée du régime. Comment et pourquoi le régime a-t-il réagi à la dénonciation du régime par l’opposition à l’étranger? Basé sur l’analyse d’une revue de presse produite par le RPT (non-publiée) et la presse de l’opposition, Raunet démontre que le régime togolais a utilisé la presse étrangère, le langage du droit, et le thème de l’identité pour consolider son pouvoir et forger une image publique de légitimité apparente. Cet article suggère que l’adaptation habile des récits de légitimité par les régimes autoritaires est clé dans notre compréhension de « leur logique interne » et pour leurs perspectives de survie.
description: Após uma transição falhada para a democracia no Togo, na década de 1990, a oposição refugiou-se no Gana, foram do alcance do regime. Por que motivos e como reagiu o regime a esta dissidência transnacional? Com base na análise de uma resenha de imprensa produzida pelo RPT (Rally of the Togolese People), que não chegou a ser publicada, e na imprensa de oposição do Gana e do Togo, Raunet argumenta que o regime togolês utilizou a imprensa estrangeira, a linguagem legalista e as políticas de pertença para se consolidar e criar uma imagem pública de aparente legitimidade. No texto sugere-se que a hábil adaptação das narrativas de legitimação é a chave para compreender a “lógica interna” dos regimes autoritários e das suas perspetivas de sobrevivência.

Αυτό ισχύει τουλάχιστον όταν κοιτάζουμε απόλυτους αριθμούς. Αν, δεύτερον, η ποιότητα περιλαμβάνεται στα διαθέσιμα κεφάλαια, τα πράγματα φαίνονται διαφορετικά. Αντιμετωπίζοντας την πανδημία COVID-19, το σύστημα υγείας μας έδειξε τις βασικά υψηλές επιδόσεις του. Με το υψηλό επίπεδο δέσμευσης και τη μεγάλη τους ικανότητα, οι πάροχοι υπηρεσιών στην κλινική και η πρακτική μπόρεσαν να διατηρήσουν τις επιπτώσεις στην υγεία για τον πληθυσμό εντός ορίων κατά τη διάρκεια της εκθετικής φάσης. Οι γιατροί στην ιδιωτική πρακτική εξασφάλισαν ότι μόνο ασθενείς με υψηλότερους βαθμούς σοβαρότητας εισήχθησαν για θεραπεία σε εσωτερικούς ασθενείς. Οι κλινικές έχουν εργαστεί σκληρά για τη θεραπεία σοβαρών ασθενών COVID-19, ασθενών σε μονάδες εντατικής θεραπείας και σταθμούς εξαερισμού. Τόσο στους εξωτερικούς όσο και στους εσωτερικούς ασθενείς, οι εγκαταστάσεις έχουν αναπτύξει τις δικές τους λύσεις προκειμένου να διατηρήσουν τις θεραπείες παρά τις αντίξοες περιστάσεις και να προστατεύσουν τους υπαλλήλους και τους ασθενείς που έλαβαν θεραπεία από μόλυνση. Η ηγεσία αποτελεί στην ουσία το βασικότερο στοιχείο.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Tätigkeit der GerichtsdolmetscherInnen und konkret mit der Sachverständigentätigkeit unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Kulturmittlung. Dabei wird dieser Gegenstand so detailliert wie möglich dargestellt, indem die unterschiedlichen Aufgaben der GerichtsdolmetscherInnen und die ihnen zugeschriebenen Rollen konkret behandelt werden. Vor allem die ihnen in jüngerer Zeit zugesprochenen Rollen der KulturmittlerInnen und Sachverständigen werden zentral behandelt, da diese für diese Arbeit und die empirische Untersuchung primär von Be-deutung sind. Um festzustellen, ob GerichtsdolmetscherInnen im Rahmen ihrer Tätigkeit eine Kulturmittlung ausüben, die auch als Sachverständigentätigkeit verstanden werden kann, wurden exemplarische Beispiele daraufhin untersucht. Bei der Untersuchung dieser Beispiele konnte erkannt werden, dass DolmetscherInnen in fast keinen der Fälle eine Kulturmittlung vorgenommen haben, somit konnte auch selten eine sachverständige Kulturmittlung festgestellt werden, obwohl diese in mehreren Fällen von Notwendigkeit gewesen wäre. Dies kann als ein Zeichen dafür verstanden werden, dass ein stärkeres Bewusstsein für die Wichtigkeit der Kulturmittlung sowohl bei DolmetscherInnen als auch BehördenvertreterInnen notwendig ist, da Kulturmittlung vor allem in Settings wie Dolmetschen bei Gericht und in asylrechtlichen Einvernahmen von wesentlicher Bedeutung sein kann. Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich allerdings nicht nur mit der Kulturmittlung als Sachverständigentätigkeit, sondern auch mit den möglichen Gründen, die dafür ausschlaggebend sein könnten (oder sogar sollten?), dass Gerichts-dolmetscherInnen eine Kulturmittlung im Rahmen ihrer Tätigkeit vornehmen.

description: On almost every occasion when an act of the National Legislature has been declared invalid by the Supreme Court of the United States there has been some adverse criticism because the Court's decision was contrary to the views of some particular section, party or class. It has been asserted on numerous occasions by those opposed to the exercise of this power by the Court that the framers of the Constitution did not intend to grant such power and there were no precedents to support this doctrine. In the introduction It will be my purpose to show that certain state courts had recognized this doctrine prior to the Convention and also that it was intended by the framers of the Constitution that the Supreme Court should exercise this power.In reviewing several of the criticisms it was noted there was a general tendency on the part at the writers to cite specific cases in support of their contention that the Supreme Court had abused its power. Thus, in arriving at such conclusion only a few cases were actually considered. This method of criticism is obviously open to the objection that the conclusion in each instance was reached without a consideration of the whole subject.It will, therefore, be my purpose in Chapter V to analyze all cases in which acts of Congress have been weld unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. An attempt will be made to indicate as clearly as possible, in each case, the constitutional question involved and the Court's reason for holding the particular statute Invalid.

description: Recent transient absorption experiments on CdS nanorods suggest that photoexcited holes rapidly trap to the surface of these particles and then undergo diffusion along the rod surface. In this paper, we present a semiperiodic DFT model for the CdS nanocrystal surface, analyze it, and comment on the nature of both the hole-trap states and the mechanism by which the holes diffuse. Hole states near the top of the valence band form an energetic near continuum with the bulk, and localize to the non-bonding sp$^3$ orbitals on surface sulfur atoms. After localization, the holes form nonadiabatic small polarons that move between the sulfur orbitals on the surface of the particle in a series of uncorrelated, incoherent, thermally-activated hops at room temperature. The surface-trapped holes are deeply in the weak-electronic coupling limit and, as a result, undergo slow diffusion.

description: The notion of metric dimension, $dim(G)$, of a graph $G$, as well as a number of variants, is now well studied. In this paper, we begin a local analysis of this notion by introducing $cdim_G(v)$, \emph{the connected metric dimension of $G$ at a vertex $v$}, which is defined as follows: a set of vertices $S$ of $G$ is a \emph{resolving set} if, for any pair of distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ of $G$, there is a vertex $z \in S$ such that the distance between $z$ and $x$ is distinct from the distance between $z$ and $y$ in $G$. We call a resolving set $S$ \emph{connected} if $S$ induces a connected subgraph of $G$. Then, $cdim_G(v)$ is defined to be the minimum of the cardinalities of all connected resolving sets which contain the vertex $v$. The \emph{connected metric dimension of $G$}, denoted by $cdim(G)$, is $\min\{cdim_G(v): v \in V(G)\}$. Noting that $1 \le dim(G) \le cdim(G) \le cdim_G(v) \le |V(G)|-1$ for any vertex $v$ of $G$, we show the existence of a pair $(G,v)$ such that $cdim_G(v)$ takes all positive integer values from $dim(G)$ to $|V (G)|-1$, as $v$ varies in a fixed graph $G$. We characterize graphs $G$ and their vertices $v$ satisfying $cdim_G(v) \in \{1, |V(G)|-1\}$. We show that $cdim(G)=2$ implies $G$ is planar, whereas it is well known that there is a non-planar graph $H$ with $dim(H)=2$. We also characterize trees and unicyclic graphs $G$ satisfying $cdim(G)=dim(G)$. We show that $cdim(G)-dim(G)$ can be arbitrarily large. We determine $cdim(G)$ and $cdim_G(v)$ for some classes of graphs. We further examine the effect of vertex or edge deletion on the connected metric dimension. We conclude with some open problems.

Ein eigenes Kapitel widmet sich dem Begriff Medizintourismus und der Situation in Österreich. Weiterhin wird das Auf-gaben- und Anforderungsprofil der DolmetscherInnen anhand der quantitativen Studie von Pöchhacker (2000) vorgestellt. Das Rollenrepertoire der DolmetscherInnen aus der Dolmetscherperspektive wird in Anlehnung an die Studie von Angelelli (2004a) und die Studie von Hsieh (2008) untersucht. Im Weiteren werden die Ergebnisse der empiri-schen Studie dargestellt, in der anhand von fünf qualitativen Interviews die Dolmet-scherrolle aus der Nutzerperspektive analysiert wird. Das Rollenbild der medizinischen DolmetscherInnen wird mit dem Rollenbild aus der Eigenperspektive verglichen.
description: This Master’s Thesis deals with the role of the interpreter in the field of medical tourism in Austria as exemplified by a health care provider. First the thesis analyzes the role of the hospital as an institution as well as the communication between the physician and the patient from the perspective of the interpreting studies and medicine. A separate chapter deals with the concept of medical tourism and the situation in Austria. Further-more, the thesis presents the profile of requirements and tasks of the interpreter on the basis of the quantitative study carried out by Pöchhacker (2000), followed by an exami-nation of the repertoire of the interpreter from the interpreter’s perspective on the basis of the studies by Angelelli (2004a) and Hsieh (2008). Then the thesis presents the results of the author’s empirical study, which analyzes the role of the interpreter from the user’s perspective on the basis of five qualitative interviews. Finally, the thesis compares the role model of the medical interpreter with the role model from the interpreter’s own perspective.

description: This article concerns the problem of computing solutions to state-constrained optimal control problems whose trajectory is affected by a flow field. This general mathematical framework is particularly pertinent to the requirements underlying the control of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles in realistic scenarii. The key contribution consists in devising a computational indirect method which becomes effective in the numerical computation of extremals to optimal control problems with state constraints by using the maximum principle in Gamkrelidze's form in which the measure Lagrange multiplier is ensured to be continuous. The specific problem of time-optimal control of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle in a bounded space set, subject to the effect of a flow field and with bounded actuation, is used to illustrate the proposed approach. The corresponding numerical results are presented and discussed.

description: A obesidade é um problema das sociedades actuais, tanto em populações adultas, como em crianças e adolescentes. Sabendo-se que a obesidade infantil é um factor preditivo da obesidade na idade adulta, os autores procederam à caracterização somatométrica da população escolar da área do Centro de Saúde do Lumiar, de modo a avaliar se este é um problema nessa população. Foram incluídas no estudo, crianças e adolescentes dos seis aos 15 anos, inclusivé, matriculados durante o ano de 2000 nas escolas do ensino público da área de influência do referido Centro. A amostra consistiu em 951 crianças e adolescentes (17% do número total de alunos inscritos). Para cada aluno foram estudadas as variáveis: sexo, idade, peso, altura e índice de Massa Corporal. Para a definição de excesso de peso e obesidade foram usados os valores de referência para o índice de Massa Corporal da International Obesity Task Force.Dos resultados obtidos, salienta-se que: 31.4% das crianças e adolescentes estudados eram obesos ou tinham excesso de peso; a prevalência global de obesidade foi de 9.6%, sendo ligeiramente maior no sexo feminino (10.2%) do que no sexo masculino (8.8%); a prevalência global de excesso de peso foi de 21.9%, sendo igualmente maior no sexo feminino (23%) do que no masculino (20.6%); as prevalências mais elevadas de obesidade e excesso de peso, em ambos os sexos, registaram-se acima dos nove anos. Os resultados encontrados neste estudo vão de encontro a outros já anteriormente publicados na literatura que alertam para o facto da obesidade e do excesso de peso serem problemas importantes em crianças e adolescentes em idade escolar. Os autores chamam, por isso, a atenção para a necessidade de adoptar estratégias que visem prevenir e minorar o impacto deste problema.

Morphological study of a sample of dwarf tidal galaxies using the C-A plane

description: In this investigation, we determined the Concentration (C) and Asymmetry (A) parameters in a sample of Tidal Dwarf Galaxies (TDG) or candidate galaxies. Most of the galaxies in the sample were found to be in a very precise region of the C-A plane, which clearly separates them from other galaxies. In addition, the stellar mass ($M_{star}$) and the star formation rate ($SFR$) in the sample were determined using optical images and GALEX observations. The main results are: the $M_{star}$ and the $SFR$ in the TDG sample do not follow a linear correlation with the $C$ and $A$ respectively, as observed in the rest of galaxies and the $M_{star}$ and the $SFR$ have a linear correlation similar to that followed by galaxies at high redshift. Then, we can conclude that the C-A plane can be a useful method for the morphological identification of candidates for TDG or dwarf objects from very turbulent environments.

Responding to Sexual Violence: How (De-)Politicization and Technicalization Shape Donor-Funded Interventions

description: This article introduces an analytical framework for studying and interpreting the sometimes surprisingly different ‘shapes’ (key topics and approaches) of donor-funded responses to sexual violence in and after armed conflict. Our framework highlights processes of politicization, depoliticization, and technicalization and their influence on interventions. Drawing on available studies, published documents, and our own field research in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Sierra Leone, we show that donor-funded responses to sexual violence since the early 2000s have taken remarkably different shapes – despite the emergence of influential international policy narratives and roughly similar forms of sexual violence in both contexts. A focus on context-specific processes of politicization, depoliticization, and technicalization reveals how these differences came about and persisted over time. (De-)Politicization and technicalization of sexual violence as a ‘weapon of war’ in DRC have led to medicalized and security-centred statebuilding interventions in the county's eastern conflict zones. By contrast, donor-funded responses in Sierra Leone framed and addressed sexual violence as ‘domestic violence’ even before the war had officially ended. We find that these different shapes emerged from initial differences in (de)politicization and technicalization processes driven by different ‘first responders’ in both contexts, which created enduring path dependencies.

description: We show that homogeneous Einstein metrics on Euclidean spaces are Einstein solvmanifolds, using that they admit periodic, integrally minimal foliations by homogeneous hypersurfaces. For the geometric flow induced by the orbit-Einstein condition, we construct a Lyapunov function based on curvature estimates which come from real GIT.

description: A enurese nocturna é um problema comum em crianças em idade escolar. Os autores realizaram um estudo com os objectivos de determinar a prevalência da enurese nas crianças do primeiro ciclo no concelho de Vila Nova de Famalicão; identificar factores associados; determinar o impacto da enurese nos pais e nas crianças e identificar os métodos terapêuticos utilizados e a sua eficácia.Efectuou-se um estudo epidemiológico tipo descritivo tendo sido incluídas 564 crianças distribuídas por várias escolas do primeiro ciclo do concelho, no ano lectivo de 2000/2001. Pediu-se aos pais para responderem a um questionário especialmente elaborado para o efeito.

Resultados: foram respondidos 489 questionários (86.7%). A prevalência da enurese nocturna foi de 6.1% (n=30), com um ligeiro predomínio no sexo masculino. A prevalência da enurese nocturna e diurna associada foi de 0.6% (n=3). A idade das crianças com enurese variava entre os 5 e os 11 anos (média 7.76 ± 1.47), com predomínio do sexo masculino. Em 15 crianças a enurese era primária e em 7 secundária. Havia história familiar em 53% dos casos.

Conclusões: A prevalência de enurese nocturna é ligeiramente inferior à referida noutros estudos. Verificou-se um aumento da enurese com o aumento do nível de escolaridade da mãe e do nível profissional do pai e da mãe. Não se encontrou relação com o nível de escolaridade do pai, a presença de famílias numerosas e a ordem de nascimento dos irmãos. A maioria dos pais mostrava preocupação relativamente à patologia dos filhos embora menos de 25% notasse interferência na vida social destes. A maioria das crianças não fizeram tratamento farmacológico, recorrendo apenas a medidas preventivas. As abordagens terapêuticas não se mostraram eficazes, embora não seja possível determinar o grau de cumprimento das mesmas.Dada a etiologia multifactorial da enurese, os autores acreditam que só um trabalho conjunto da criança, da família e do médico asseguram a melhor estratégia para a resolução do problema.

description: We give a hierarchy of $k$-point bounds extending the Delsarte-Goethals-Seidel linear programming $2$-point bound and the Bachoc-Vallentin semidefinite programming $3$-point bound for spherical codes. An optimized implementation of this hierarchy allows us to compute~$4$, $5$, and $6$-point bounds for the maximum number of equiangular lines in Euclidean space with a fixed common angle.

Avaliação Clínica da Gravidade da Doença em Cuidados Intensivos Pediátricos

description: A avaliação da gravidade da doença representa uma das mais importantes habilitações clínicas. É pela ponderação de diversos factores que o médico, na sua prática diária, consegue avaliar a gravidade da doença que pretende tratar e desta forma actuar da forma que considera mais eficaz e apropriada. Esta avaliação da gravidade feita individualmente é, no entanto, subjectiva e não é de estranhar que, perante uma mesma situação, dois clínicos possam divergir na sua avaliação do prognóstico a transmitir ao doente ou aos seus familiares.

Foi objectivo deste trabalho avaliar de forma objectiva o desempenho da avaliação clínica da gravidade da doença e compará-lo com o obtido pelas as escalas objectivas Pediatric Risk of Mortality (PRISM) e Pediatric Index of Mortality (PIM). A avaliação subjectiva da gravidade da doença feita pelo clínico na primeira hora após a admissão da criança mostrou um desempenho bom (SMR=0,90; x2(p)=0,42; AUC=0,93). No confronto directp com as escalas objectivas, a avaliação clínica mostrou um poder discriminativo semelhante (2e(p)=0,78).

description: A sépsis meningocócica representa uma importante causa de internamento e mortalidade em cuidados intensivos pediátricos. Estão descritas diversas escalas específicas de avaliação da gravidade nesta situação mas existem muitas dúvidas sobre o seu desempenho relativo em crianças. As escalas preditivas de mortalidade para utilização mais geral em cuidados intensivos pediátricos como a PRISM e a PIM têm igualmente sido utilizadas para a avaliação da gravidade neste grupo de crianças.

Neste estudo avaliamos de forma prospectiva o desempenho relativo de diferentes escalas numa mesma população de crianças com suspeita clínica de sépsis meningocócica internadas numa unidade de cuidados intensivos.Durante o período do estudo foram internadas 35 crianças com o diagnóstico clínico de sépsis meningocócica das quais duas vieram a falecer.

Nestas crianças, as escalas de gravidade específicas para sépsis (Sinclair, Algren, Nurnberger e Roterdão) apresentaram uma sensibilidade de 100% e uma especificidade variável na previsão da mortalidade. O melhor desempenho foi conseguido pela escala de Roterdão que é simultaneamente a mais simples e objectiva. As escalas preditivas de mortalidade apresentaram um desempenho inferior ao da escala de Roterdão.

Creators: name: Rajic, Martha
Year: 2017

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit dem Thema Gerichtsdolmetschen in Österreich. Im theoretischen Teil der Arbeit werden die Kompetenzen, die Rolle, der Tätigkeitsbereich sowie der Zertifizierungsprozess von GerichtsdolmetscherInnen genau untersucht. Der Dolmetscheinsatz vor Gericht wird in Bezug auf unterschiedliche Schwerpunkte analysiert. Die Erwartungshaltung an GerichtsdolmetscherInnen aus Sicht der RichterInnen sowie fremdsprachigen Prozessbeteiligten stellen einen fundamentalen Grundstein der vorliegenden Arbeit dar. Ziel der Arbeit ist es herauszufinden, welche Erwartungen die Anwaltschaft an GerichtsdolmetscherInnen stellt. Es soll erforscht werden, wie ihr Rollenverständnis aussieht, welche Kompetenzen sowie Aufgaben die Anwaltschaft den GerichtsdolmetscherInnen in Österreich zuschreibt. Zusätzlich dazu werden ihre Erfahrungen mit GerichtsdolmetscherInnen beleuchtet um ein umfassendes Bild dieses Berufsstandes zu geben. Es soll begründet werden, wie es mit der Zufriedenheit der Anwaltschaft um die Dolmetschpraxis bei Gericht bestellt ist, wo es ein eventuelles Manko gibt und wie die Zukunftsperspektiven in diesem Berufsfeld ihrer Meinung nach aussehen. Diesen Fragestellungen wird mittels leitfadengestützter Experteninterviews nachgegangen.
description: This study deals with the subject of court interpreting in Austria. The theoretical part is focusing on the competence, the role, the field of activities and the certification process of court interpreters. The commitment in the law court is analysed from different key aspects. The expectations of judges and foreign people, who are involved in the court case, regarding court interpreters is a major topic of the study. The goal is to find out which expectations lawyers have on court interpreters. One part is to explore their perception of the roles and also which competences and tasks lawyers put to court interpreters. In addition also the experience of lawyers with court interpreters will be considered to get an broad picture of this profession. The other part aims to investigate the satisfaction of lawyers regarding court interpretations, to find out where possible weak points are and how they see the profession of court interpreters in future. These questions will be discussed via a guided interview with experts on this field.

description: In this paper we first formulate a dually gauged harmonic map model, suggested from a product Abelian Higgs field theory arising in impurity-inspired field theories, and obtain a new BPS system of equations governing coexisting vortices and antivortices, which are topologically characterized by the first Chern class of the underlying Hermitian bundle and the Thom class of the associated dual bundle. We then establish existence and uniqueness theorems for such vortices. For the equations over a compact surface, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions. For the equations over the full plane, we obtain all finite-energy solutions. Besides, we also present precise expressions giving the values of various physical quantities of the solutions, including magnetic charges and energies, in terms of the total numbers of vortices and antivortices, of two species, and the coupling parameters involved.
