Tourism in Southeast Asia: New Local Development Chances through Individual Backpacking?
Creators: name: Spreitzhofer, Günter
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: Individual tourism, formerly often mislabelled alternative tourism, has become a well-established and mostly welcome way of travelling in Third World countries. Whereas the economic and socio-cultural consequences of low-budget backpacking in Southeast Asia, both one of the most dynamic tourism destinations and the cradle of Lonely Planet-guided travellers, were considered negative, even devastating for a long time, the Asian crisis of the late 1990s has made many governments rethink their dependence on international tour operators and large-scale package tourism. After a short discussion of both history and dimensions of international tourism within the region, the concept of backpacking as a form of sustainable development is introduced, which offers opportunities for grass-roots development for a wide range of people.

Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: The democratization of Cambodia is a major challenge for the national political elite and the International Community in their efforts to consolidate the peace process after a protracted civil war between 1970 and 1991. Free and fair elections are perceived as an important step in this process. This study examines the last parliamentary elections in July 2003. They saw improvements in administration and organization, but also an ongoing deep polarization between the parties. Apart from flaws of the election system, political violence, biased media and partial election commissions at the provincial and local level call the democratic character of the elections into question. Political instability prevails in Cambodia and a new government has still to be formed.

title: Classical and Quantum Dots Photoredox Catalyzed Synthetic Methods
Creators: name: Colson, Eloïse
Publisher: name: Universität Bern
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: 540 Chemistry
subject: 570 Life sciences; biology

description: Quantum dots are nanometer-sized semiconductors composed of an inorganic core and surrounded by an organic layer of ligands. Due to their nanometric size, quantum dots exhibit discrete atomic-like states and are able, upon light excitation, to engage in electron transfers with small organic molecules. 
Their use as photocatalysts in preparative organic synthesis is developing rapidly but is largely limited to net reductive processes. In addition, quantum dots are still far from being adopted as common photocatalysts by organic chemists, despite the current craze for photoredox protocols. As part of a collaboration with a team of physical-chemists from the CEA in Grenoble (France), we had the objective to develop quantum dot photocatalysts (in Grenoble) and to use them for preparative organic chemistry (in Bern).
A first phase was devoted to the development of redox neutral photochemical methods using iridium photocatalysis. We investigated boronate complexes as radical precursors by one-electron oxidation and found that alcoholate-substituted boronate complexes where efficient at generating not the corresponding alkoxyl radical, but the phenyl radical. The alcohol substituent was important to reduce the formation of a biphenyl side-product. The utility of the generated phenyl radical was demonstrated by an allylation reaction as well as by its ability to engage in iodine abstraction. No substrate scope was investigated for these transformations and quantum dot photocatalysis was not applied in this case.
Next, we turned our intention to alpha-aminoalkyl radicals as key intermediates in a radical [3+3]-annulation reaction leading to biologically relevant tropane and related alkaloid skeletons. We demonstrated that a broad scope of aniline derivatives could be engaged in this transformation. The products are distinct from the Robinson annulated products and functional handles are available for further derivatization. In addition, important milestones towards the total synthesis of (+)- euphococcinine were achieved.
After the development of suitable quantum dots in Grenoble, these photocatalysts were used for the radical annulation reaction. Despite limitations observed in the scope for reaction scale exceeding 0.05 mmol, promising results were obtained with N-phenylpyrrolidine on 0.2 mmol scale.
The Power of Maps and the War against Terrorism in Afghanistan: A Critical Review of German News Maps
Creators: name: Clemens, Jürgen

Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: Contrary to the general perception of maps as objective sources, new approaches in the social sciences strongly deny any objective and neutral representation since maps are socially or politically constructed artefacts. The new task is to deconstruct the map, to explore political interests and power relations underlying the production of maps. In the present study, implicit connotations of map meanings are particularly important aspects. Protagonists of the "Clash of Civilisations" argue that wars will occur especially along the divisions between cultures and that wars will lead to new global "white spots". Contrary to such generalizations, it is, however, obvious that the current media coverage of wars has, in spite of different technical as well as topical shortcomings, actually erased "white spots", at least if "Western" interests are directly involved. In this study, new maps on the "War against Terror" in Afghanistan - taken from a sample of German papers - are analysed and compared with maps in South Asian papers.

description: Background: Trauma-informed care can be defined as “a system development model that is grounded in and directed by a complete understanding of how trauma exposure affects service user’s neurological, biological, psychological, and social development” (Patterson, 2014). It is widely acknowledged that trauma informed approaches are designed to have a positive influence on both staff and service users. However, there is limited evidence that exists on implementing trauma-informed approaches in service provision. This limited evidence has also focused mainly on the influence of trauma-informed care on service users rather than staff members (Hales et al. 2017). Given the high prevalence of trauma in forensic populations and the fact that staff members are participants in an organisation’s culture and the processes through which services are delivered, it would be important to gain an understanding of how staff members are impacted by the process of moving towards trauma informed care within the NHS context in the UK. Aims: The aim of this study is to provide an in -depth description of the impact of transitioning to a trauma-informed service model on staff working in an inpatient forensic unit in the North of England and the factors that influence the progress of this transition. Method: The study employs a qualitative design and the data were collected via four focus groups comprising of staff members working in the four wards of a female forensic unit. All participants in this study were female. Thematic analysis (Braun and Clarke, 2006) was used to analyse the data through a social constructionist epistemology (Burr, 1995). Findings: Four themes were identified: Reconstructing your professional identity; Redefining group dynamics; Navigating new clinical practices; Managing longer term challenges of trauma-informed change. Implications: Implications for policy, practice and research are discussed.

description: Flood damage has increased significantly and is expected to rise further in many parts of the world. For assessing potential changes in flood risk, this paper presents an integrated model chain quantifying flood hazards and losses while considering climate and land use changes. In the case study region, risk estimates for the present and the near future illustrate that changes in flood risk by 2030 are relatively low compared to historic periods. While the impact of climate change on the flood hazard and risk by 2030 is slight or negligible, strong urbanisation associated with economic growth contributes to a remarkable increase in flood risk. Therefore, it is recommended to frequently consider land use scenarios and economic developments when assessing future flood risks. Further, an adapted and sustainable risk management is necessary to encounter rising flood losses, in which non-structural measures are becoming more and more important. The case study demonstrates that adaptation by non-structural measures such as stricter land use regulations or enhancement of private precaution is capable of reducing flood risk by around 30 %. Ignoring flood risks, in contrast, always leads to further increasing losses-with our assumptions by 17 %. These findings underline that private precaution and land use regulation could be taken into account as low cost adaptation strategies to global climate change in many flood prone areas. Since such measures reduce flood risk regardless of climate or land use changes, they can also be recommended as no-regret measures.

description: As part of the US neoconservative "forward strategy of freedom" for the Greater Middle East, Afghanistan has become a first test of regime change. During the second Afghanistan conference in Berlin, donors committed US$ 8.2 billion "to establish a democratic and market-oriented government in an Islamic country". However, lessons learnt from development assistance dating back to the 1970s may still be noteworthy. Very long time horizons will be necessary to rebuild physical infrastructure and human capital, and to establish the rule of law, mutual trust and cooperation as opposed to rivalling clan agendas. Foreign finance and foreign troops alone will not eliminate the lack of basic institutions, the shortage of feasible projects ("project gap"), and the weaknesses of policy formulation and implementation. A paper written in 1976 may shed some light on similar donor insights three decades ago.

description: At the first Afghan Conference in November/December 2001 it was decided that a new Afghan constitution should be passed within two years. In June 2003 452 delegates, among them 90 women, were elected and another 50 persons appointed directly by interim president Hamid Karsai, in order to decide upon a constitution, which had already been drafted by a committee. Not least because of bribery and other irregularities during the election process, 70% of the delegates were former commanders of the Mojahedins and war lords. When the Loya Jirga opened on December 14, 2003, the American ambassador and UN envoys had already laid down the agenda and instructed the delegates. Despite strong opposition from different groups (monarchists, ethnic minorities, secularists etc.) and some compromises he had to make with Islamists, Karsai and his Western allies managed to confirm his strong position. On the whole, the new constitution reflects more the global interests of the USA than the requirements of the Afghan people.

description: Background: Ophiostoma piceae is a wood-staining fungus that grows in the sapwood of conifer logs and lumber. We sequenced its genome and analyzed its transcriptomes under a range of growth conditions. A comparison with the genome and transcriptomes of the mountain pine beetle-associated pathogen Grosmannia clavigera highlights differences between a pathogen that colonizes and kills living pine trees and a saprophyte that colonizes wood and the inner bark of dead trees. Results: We assembled a 33 Mbp genome in 45 scaffolds, and predicted approximately 8,884 genes. The genome size and gene content were similar to those of other ascomycetes. Despite having similar ecological niches, O. piceae and G. clavigera showed no large-scale synteny. We identified O. piceae genes involved in the biosynthesis of melanin, which causes wood discoloration and reduces the commercial value of wood products. We also identified genes and pathways involved in growth on simple carbon sources and in sapwood, O. piceae’s natural substrate. Like the pathogen, the saprophyte is able to tolerate terpenes, which are a major class of pine tree defense compounds; unlike the pathogen, it cannot utilize monoterpenes as a carbon source. Conclusions: This work makes available the second annotated genome of a softwood ophiostomatoid fungus, and suggests that O. piceae’s tolerance to terpenes may be due in part to these chemicals being removed from the cells by an ABC transporter that is highly induced by terpenes. The data generated will provide the research community with resources for work on host-vector-fungus interactions for wood-inhabiting, beetle-associated saprophytes and pathogens.

description: Objective: Several different measures of heart rate variability, and particularly of respiratory sinus arrhythmia, are widely used in research and clinical applications. For many purposes it is important to know which features of heart rate variability are directly related to respiration and which are caused by other aspects of cardiac dynamics. Approach: Inspired by ideas from the theory of coupled oscillators, we use simultaneous measurements of respiratory and cardiac activity to perform a nonlinear disentanglement of the heart rate variability into the respiratory-related component and the rest. Main results: The theoretical consideration is illustrated by the analysis of 25 data sets from healthy subjects. In all cases we show how the disentanglement is manifested in the different measures of heart rate variability. Significance: The suggested technique can be exploited as a universal preprocessing tool, both for the analysis of respiratory influence on the heart rate and in cases when effects of other factors on the heart rate variability are in focus.

Publisher: name: Hertie School
Year: 2024

description: Child penalties in labour market outcomes are well-documented: after childbirth, mothers' employment and earnings drop persistently compared to fathers. Beyond gender norms, a potential driver could be the loss in labour market skills due to mothers' longer employment interruptions. This paper estimates child penalties in adult cognitive skills by adapting the pseudo-panel approach to a single cross-section of 29 countries in the PIAAC dataset. We find a persistent drop in numeracy skills after childbirth for both parents between 0.13 (short-run) and 0.16 standard deviations (long-run), but no statistically significant difference between mothers and fathers. Estimates of child penalties in skills strongly depend on controlling for pre-determined characteristics, especially education. Additionally, there is no evidence for worse occupational skill matches for mothers after childbirth. Our findings suggest that changes in general labour market skills cannot explain child penalties in labour market outcomes, and that a cross-sectional estimation of child penalties can be sensitive to characteristics of the outcome variable.

description: Purpose: Public policies targeting the school setting are increasingly being used to address childhood obesity; however, their effectiveness depends on their implementation. This study explores the factors which impeded or facilitated the implementation of publicly mandated school-based physical activity and nutrition guidelines in the province of British Columbia (BC), Canada. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 50 school informants (17 principals - 33 teacher/school informants) to examine the factors associated with the implementation of the mandated Daily Physical Activity (DPA) and Food and Beverage Sales in Schools (FBSS) guidelines. Coding used a constructivist grounded theory approach. The first five transcripts and every fifth transcript thereafter were coded by two independent coders with discrepancies reconciled by a third coder. Data was coded and analysed in the NVivo 9 software. Concept maps were developed and current theoretical perspectives were integrated in the later stages of analysis. Results: The Diffusion of Innovations Model provided an organizing framework to present emergent themes. With the exception of triability (not relevant in the context of mandated guidelines/policies), the key attributes of the Diffusion of Innovations Model (relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, and observability) provided a robust framework for understanding themes associated with implementation of mandated guidelines. Specifically, implementation of the DPA and FBSS guidelines was facilitated by perceptions that they: were relatively advantageous compared to status quo; were compatible with school mandates and teaching philosophies; had observable positive impacts and impeded when perceived as complex to understand and implement. In addition, a number of contextual factors including availability of resources facilitated implementation. Conclusions: The enactment of mandated policies/guidelines for schools is considered an essential step in improving physical activity and healthy eating. However, policy makers need to: monitor whether schools are able to implement the guidelines, support schools struggling with implementation, and document the impact of the guidelines on students’ behaviors. To facilitate the implementation of mandated guidelines/policies, the Diffusion of Innovations Model provides an organizational framework for planning interventions. Changing the school environment is a process which cannot be undertaken solely by passive means as we know that such approaches have not resulted in adequate implementation.
Service differentiation in Wireless Local Area Networks

description: Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) have significantly developed as a means to provide Internet access at many places. There are different types of Internet traffic over WLANs such as data and voice, with different Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. This raises the need for the provision of service differentiation in WLANs. The traditional approach prioritizes voice over data, which gives an incentive for data applications to mark themselves as voice to gain higher QoS. This may lead to the degradation of the whole network and hence worsen QoS perceived by end users. In contrast, the service differentiation scheme proposed in my thesis provides different but equal services for different traffic types, which can eliminate the incentive mentioned above and has simple implementation.

 Remarks. The holotype of Herpetotherium marsupium, a partial right dentary with p3-m3 (YPM 13518), came from an undetermined stratigraphic level (either Br2 or Br3) of the Bridger Formation in the Bridger Basin (Troxell, 1923a). Subsequently, numerous specimens of Herpetotherium marsupium have been recorded from the Blacks Fork and Twin Buttes members (biochrons Br2 and Br3) in the Bridger Basin (Gazin, 1976; Krishtalka and Stucky, 1983a, 1983b). Gunnell (1998) referred to Herpetotherium marsupium three specimens collected from exposures of the lowermost Bridger Formation (early Bridgerian, biochron Br1a = Bridger A of Matthew [1909]) in the northern portion of the Bridger Basin near the town of Opal. West and Hutchinson (1981) described a single upper molar (MPM 5888) of Herpetotherium marsupium from locality MPM 2970, which occurs low in the TBM on the southwest flank of Sage Creek Mountain. Herpetotherium marsupium has also been recorded from the early Eocene (late Wasatchian, biochron Wa6) through the middle Eocene (Duchesnean, biochron Du) of North America (Krishtalka and Stucky, 1983b; Korth, 2008), resulting in a geochronologic range of about 12.4 Ma.

description: Στόχος της εργασίας είναι η διερεύνηση της συμβολής του μοντέλου ΑΙ Learning στις στάσεις και στην αυτό-αποτελεσματικότητα των εκπαιδευτικών Α-βαθμιας εκπαίδευσης στη διδασκαλία των Φυσικών Επιστημών. Στην έρευνα έγινε εκπαιδευτική παρέμβαση σε ένα δείγμα 13 εκπαιδευτικών Πρωτοβάθμιας εκπαίδευσης. Στους εκπαιδευτικούς χορηγήθηκε το ερωτηματολόγιο DAS πριν και μετά την παρέμβαση. Το ερωτηματολόγιο έχει τις εξής διαστάσεις: αξία φυσικών επιστημών, υποκειμενική δυσκολία, ευχαρίστηση, άγχος, αυτοαποτελεσματικότητα, εξάρτηση από το πλαίσιο, πρόθεση συμμετοχής. Αρχικά, σημαντικό ποσοστό εκπαιδευτικών εξέφρασε διαφωνία (53,8%) σχετικά με τη σημασία της Φυσικής στην Πρωτοβάθμια Εκπαίδευση. Ωστόσο, μετά την παρέμβαση, σημειώθηκε μια ουσιαστική μετατόπιση, με την πλειοψηφία (38,5%) να αναγνωρίζει τη σημασία της Φυσικής. Προ της παρέμβασης, παρατηρήθηκε αρνητική στάση (46,2%) όσον αφορά στην εισαγωγή της Φυσικής, η οποία άλλαξε σε θετική πρόθεση (38,5%) μετά την παρέμβαση. Ομοίως, οι δάσκαλοι αρχικά διαφώνησαν (61,5%) με τη συμμετοχή των μαθητών σε προβλήματα τεχνολογίας και κοινωνίας στη Φυσική, αλλά αυτό άλλαξε θετικά (46,2%) μετά την παρέμβαση. Η παρέμβαση επηρέασε επίσης τα επίπεδα άγχους των εκπαιδευτικών. Επιπλέον, η παρέμβαση επηρέασε θετικά την απόλαυση των εκπαιδευτικών, καθώς το 53,8% εξέφρασε χαρά για τη διδασκαλία της Φυσικής αφού αρχικά διαφώνησε (46,2%). Τέλος η παρέμβαση επηρέασε θετικά τις αντιλήψεις των εκπαιδευτικών για την επάρκεια των γνώσεών τους για την υποστήριξη των μαθητών. Πριν από την παρέμβαση, οι δάσκαλοι ένιωθαν λιγότερο προετοιμασμένοι να παράσχουν την απαιτούμενη βοήθεια, αλλά μετά την παρέμβαση, υπήρξε μια αξιοσημείωτη θετική αλλαγή. Η βαθμολογία DAS, που αντικατοπτρίζει τις γενικές στάσεις για τη διδασκαλία της Φυσικής με τη χρήση συγκεκριμένων βοηθητικών εργαλείων, έδειξε αξιοσημείωτη βελτίωση. Η μέση βαθμολογία αυξήθηκε σημαντικά από 68,15 πριν από την παρέμβαση σε 89,15 μετά από αυτήν. Αυτή η αλλαγή υποδηλώνει ότι η παρέμβαση συνέβαλε σε μια πιο θετική στάση μεταξύ των εκπαιδευτικών σχετικά με τη χρήση συγκεκριμένων πρακτικών στη διδασκαλία της Φυσικής.

description: Background: Although some studies show higher antiretroviral concentrations in women compared to men, data are limited. We conducted a cross-sectional study of HIV-positive women to determine if protease inhibitor (PI) and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) Cmin and Cmax values were significantly different than historical general population (predominantly male) averages and to evaluate correlates of higher concentrations. Methods: HIV-positive women with virologic suppression (viral load < 50copies/mL) on their first antiretroviral regimen were enrolled. Timed blood samples for Cmin and Cmax were drawn weekly for 3 weeks. The ratio of each individual’s median Cmin and Cmax to the published population mean values for their PI or NNRTI was calculated and assessed using Wilcoxon sign-rank. Intra- and inter-patient variability of antiretroviral drug levels was assessed using coefficient of variation and intra-class correlation. Linear regression was used to identify correlates of the square root-transformed Cmin and Cmax ratios. Results: Data from 82 women were analyzed. Their median age was 41 years (IQR=36-48) and duration of antiretrovirals was 20 months (IQR=9-45). Median antiretroviral Cmin and Cmax ratios were 1.21 (IQR=0.72-1.89, p=0.003) (highest ratios for nevirapine and lopinavir) and 0.82 (IQR=0.59-1.14, p=0.004), respectively. Nevirapine and efavirenz showed the least and unboosted atazanavir showed the most intra- and inter-patient variability. Higher CD4+ count correlated with higher Cmin. No significant correlates for Cmax were found. Conclusions: Compared to historical control data, Cmin in the women enrolled was significantly higher whereas Cmax was significantly lower. Antiretroviral Cmin ratios were highly variable within and between participants. There were no clinically relevant correlates of drug concentrations. Trial registration: NCT00433979

description: Background Evidence-based policy measures need non-interest-guided information about the health status of a population and the diseases that affect the population the most. In such cases, a national burden of disease study can provide reliable insights at the regional level. Aim This article presents the potential of the BURDEN 2020 project and its expected outcome for Germany at the national and regional level. Methods The BURDEN 2020 project uses several indicators including years of life lost (YLL) to cover the impact of mortality and years lived with disability (YLD) to cover morbidity. The sum of both is the measure of population health called disability adjusted life years (DALY). Results The study ranks individual diseases and risk factors based on their impact on population health. The burden of disease approach is assumed to be sensitive to subnational differences and may generate immediate benefits for regional planning. The BURDEN 2020 study will pilot a national burden of disease study for Germany that will later be transformed into a continuous data processing and visualization tool. This is done by using, modifying and supplementing the methodology employed by the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study to better fit the needs of health policy in Germany. This study is aimed at calculating the disease burden for up to 17 preselected diseases. Furthermore, the estimates of burden of disease are attributed to a selected set of risk factors. Conclusion The Burden 2020 study will provide the results of a new, health-related data processing system to the public. This includes a noninterest-guided presentation of the burden of disease (DALY) in Germany at the national and regional level.

description: The genetic code is degenerate; thus, protein evolution does not uniquely determine the coding sequence. One of the puzzles in evolutionary genetics is therefore to uncover evolutionary driving forces that result in specific codon choice. In many bacteria, the first 5-10 codons of protein-coding genes are often codons that are less frequently used in the rest of the genome, an effect that has been argued to arise from selection for slowed early elongation to reduce ribosome traffic jams. However, genome analysis across many species has demonstrated that the region shows reduced mRNA folding consistent with pressure for efficient translation initiation. This raises the possibility that unusual codon usage is a side effect of selection for reduced mRNA structure. Here we discriminate between these two competing hypotheses, and show that in bacteria selection favours codons that reduce mRNA folding around the translation start, regardless of whether these codons are frequent or rare. Experiments confirm that primarily mRNA structure, and not codon usage, at the beginning of genes determines the translation rate.
