description: Anhand der vorgelegten Arbeit wird die Umsetzung der Digitalisierungsrichtlinie (RL (EU) 2019/1151) untersucht und ein umfassender Überblick über die Fortschritte und Herausforderungen bei der Umsetzung ins österreichische Rechtssystem geliefert. Ziel der von der EU im Jahr 2019 verabschiedeten Digitalisierungsrichtlinie ist die Förderung des Einsatzes digitaler Tools und Technologien und die Erleichterung der Digitalisierung in verschiedenen Bereichen. Die Richtlinie enthält Bestimmungen zu elektronischen Identifizierungssystemen, Vertrauensdiensten, elektronischen Transaktionen, Online-Plattformen, Online-Verfahren und zur Online-Einreichung von Gesellschaftsunterlagen. In der Arbeit wird aufgezeigt, dass Österreich im Allgemeinen bestrebt war, die Digitalisierungsrichtlinie fristgerecht und vollständig umzusetzen. Eine Herausforderung für den österreichischen Gesetzgeber besteht bei der Umsetzung und Ausgestaltung von Regelungen für disqualifizierte Geschäftsführer. Es bedarf zudem einer Harmonisierung von Online-Plattformen und der Förderung grenzüberschreitender elektronischer Dienstleistungen zwischen den EU-Mitgliedstaaten sowie einer einheitlichen Umsetzung, welche mit einer komplexen Anpassung nationaler Rechtsvorschriften der einzelnen Mitgliedstaaten einhergeht. Somit besteht weiterhin Handlungsbedarf für den österreichischen Gesetzgeber.
description: On the basis of the presented master thesis, the implementation of the Digitalization Directive (RL (EU) 2019/1151) is examined and a comprehensive overview of the progress and challenges in the implementation into the Austrian legal system is provided. The aim of the Digitization Directive, adopted by the EU in 2019, is to promote the use of digital tools and technologies and to facilitate digitization in various areas. The Directive contains provisions on electronic identification systems, trust services, electronic transactions, online platforms, online procedures and online filing of company documents. Austria has generally strived to implement the Digitization Directive on time and in full. A challenge for the Austrian legislator is the implementation and legal content of regulations for disqualified directors. There is also a need for harmonization of online platforms and the promotion of cross-border e-services between EU Member States as well as uniform implementation, which is accompanied by a complex adaptation of national legislation of the individual Member States. Thus, there is still a need for action on the part of the Austrian legislator.
Evaluations of the sum-score-based and item response theory-based tests of group mean differences under various simulation conditions

description: 
The use of patient-reported outcomes measures is gaining popularity in clinical trials for comparing patient groups. Such comparisons typically focus on the differences in group means and are carried out using either a traditional sum-score-based approach or item response theory (IRT)-based approaches. Several simulation studies have evaluated different group mean comparison approaches in the past, but the performance of these approaches remained unknown under certain uninvestigated conditions (e.g. under the impact of differential item functioning (DIF)). By incorporating some of the uninvestigated simulation features, the current study examines Type I error, statistical power, and effect size estimation accuracy associated with group mean comparisons using simple sum scores, IRT model likelihood ratio tests, and IRT expected-a-posteriori scores. Manipulated features include sample size per group, number of items, number of response categories, strength of discrimination parameters, location of thresholds, impact of DIF, and presence of missing data. Results are summarized and visualized using decision trees.

description: We perform a lattice study of charmonium-like mesons with $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ and three quark contents $\bar cc \bar du$, $\bar cc(\bar uu+\bar dd)$ and $\bar cc \bar ss$, where the later two can mix with $\bar cc$. This simulation with $N_f=2$ and $m_π=266$ MeV aims at the possible signatures of four-quark exotic states. We utilize a large basis of $\bar cc$, two-meson and diquark-antidiquark interpolating fields, with diquarks in both anti-triplet and sextet color representations. A lattice candidate for X(3872) with I=0 is observed very close to the experimental state only if both $\bar cc$ and $D\bar D^*$ interpolators are included; the candidate is not found if diquark-antidiquark and $D\bar D^*$ are used in the absence of $\bar cc$. No candidate for neutral or charged X(3872), or any other exotic candidates are found in the I=1 channel. We also do not find signatures of exotic $\bar cc\bar ss$ candidates below 4.3 GeV, such as Y(4140). Possible physics and methodology related reasons for that are discussed. Along the way, we present the diquark-antidiquark operators as linear combinations of the two-meson operators via the Fierz transformations.

description: 
COVID-19 threatens lives, livelihoods, and civic institutions. Although restrictive public health behaviors such as social distancing help manage its impact, these behaviors can further sever our connections to people and institutions that affirm our identities. Three studies (N = 1,195) validated a brief 10-item COVID-19 Threat Scale that assesses (1) realistic threats to physical or financial safety and (2) symbolic threats to one’s sociocultural identity. Studies reveal that both realistic and symbolic threats predict higher distress and lower well-being and demonstrate convergent validity with other measures of threat sensitivity. Importantly, the two kinds of threats diverge in their relationship to restrictive public health behaviors: Realistic threat predicted greater self-reported adherence, whereas symbolic threat predicted less self-reported adherence to social disconnection behaviors. Symbolic threat also predicted using creative ways to affirm identity even in isolation. Our findings highlight how social psychological theory can be leveraged to understand and predict people’s behavior in pandemics.

Cognitive Barriers to Reducing Income Inequality
Creators: name: Payne, Keith
name: Jackson, Joshua Conrad
Publisher: name: SAGE Publications
Year: 2021

description: 
As economic inequality grows, more people stand to benefit from wealth redistribution. Yet in many countries, increasing inequality has not produced growing support for redistribution, and people often appear to vote against their economic interest. Here we suggest that two cognitive tendencies contribute to these paradoxical voting patterns. First, people gauge their income through social comparison, and those comparisons are usually made to similar others. Second, people are insensitive to large numbers, which leads them to underestimate the gap between themselves and the very wealthy. These two tendencies can help explain why subjective income is normally distributed (therefore most people think they are middle class) and partly explain why many people who would benefit from redistribution oppose it. We support our model’s assumptions using survey data, a controlled experiment, and agent-based modeling. Our model sheds light on the cognitive barriers to reducing inequality.

description: We consider unitary conjugation channels with continuous random phases. The spectral properties of the channel average are examined, thereby the asymptotic behaviors of the repeated quantum interactions of the motion are derived. We then study the channels with uniformly distributed continuous phases on an interval. In this context, it is shown that discrete phases are sufficient to achieve the channel average.

Transiting Planets with LSST II. Period Detection of Planets Orbiting 1 Solar Mass Hosts

description: The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will photometrically monitor approximately 1 billion stars for ten years. The resulting light curves can be used to detect transiting exoplanets. In particular, as demonstrated by Lund et al. (2015), LSST will probe stellar populations currently undersampled in most exoplanet transit surveys, including out to extragalactic distances. In this paper we test the efficiency of the box-fitting least-squares (BLS) algorithm for accurately recovering the periods of transiting exoplanets using simulated LSST data. We model planets with a range of radii orbiting a solar-mass star at a distance of 7 kpc, with orbital periods ranging from 0.5 to 20 days. We find that standard-cadence LSST observations will be able to reliably recover the periods of Hot Jupiters with periods shorter than approximately 3 days, however it will remain a challenge to confidently distinguish these transiting planets from false positives. At the same time, we find that the LSST deep drilling cadence is extremely powerful: the BLS algorithm successfully recovers at least 30% of sub-Saturn-size exoplanets with orbital periods as long as 20 days, and a simple BLS power criterion robustly distinguishes approximately 98% of these from photometric (i.e. statistical) false positives.

description: With the growth of wireless networks, security has become a fundamental issue in wireless communications due to the broadcast nature of these networks. In this work, we consider MIMO wiretap channels in a fast fading environment, for which the overall performance is characterized by the ergodic MIMO secrecy rate. Unfortunately, the direct solution to finding ergodic secrecy rates is prohibitive due to the expectations in the rates expressions in this setting. To overcome this difficulty, we invoke the large-system assumption, which allows a deterministic approximation to the ergodic mutual information. Leveraging results from random matrix theory, we are able to characterize the achievable ergodic secrecy rates. Based on this characterization, we address the problem of covariance optimization at the transmitter. Our numerical results demonstrate a good match between the large-system approximation and the actual simulated secrecy rates, as well as some interesting features of the precoder optimization.

description: Purpose:
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a chronic progressive disease with no curative treatments. Understanding the variables involved with improving patients’ quality of life is important in managing this population. The literature investigating the relationship of anxiety and depression with RP relies on the analysis of smaller subset populations of patients with RP, and no study has quantified the effect size of the potential association. This study aims to elucidate and quantify the association between RP, anxiety, and depression.


Methods:
A retrospective case-control study was conducted of 6 093 833 medical records within the University of North Carolina Hospital and outpatient clinic system from July 1, 2004, to August 30, 2019. Patients with a diagnosis of RP, anxiety, and depression were identified within the Carolina Data Warehouse for Health by International Classification of Diseases, Ninth and Tenth Revision codes.


Results:
From the base population of 6 093 833 patients' medical records, 690 patients were diagnosed with RP, 253 065 with anxiety, and 232 541 with depression. Patients with RP have an odds ratio, adjusted for sex and age, of 4.915 (95% CI, 4.035-5.987) for having comorbid anxiety, 5.609 (95% CI, 4.622-6.807) for comorbid depression, and 4.130 (95% CI, 3.187-5.353) for comorbid anxiety and depression.


Conclusions:
Patients with RP have a higher prevalence of anxiety and depression, with increased odds of approximately 5 to 6 times for also carrying a diagnosis of anxiety or depression and about 4 times for carrying diagnoses of anxiety and depression compared with the general population.

Purpose:
This case report describes a rare organism causing endogenous endophthalmitis in a patient with sickle cell disease.


Methods:
A case report was conducted.


Results:
A 41-year-old man with sickle cell disease presented with acute onset of blurry vision of the right eye. His visual acuity was counting fingers in the right eye and 20/20 in the left eye. He had ophthalmic findings of hypopyon and vitritis in the right eye, consistent with endophthalmitis. He was treated with intravitreal and systemic antibiotics. Vitreous cultures grew Bordetella holmesii. His visual acuity at follow-up visits improved to 20/40 in the setting of improved vitritis.


Conclusions:
This is the first case describing B holmesii, a rare causative organism of endogenous endophthalmitis, in a patient with sickle cell disease. More studies are needed to improve the early detection and treatment of this unusual organism.

description: In November 2020, Oregon voters passed an historic measure to decriminalize possession of small amounts of all drugs and invest substantially in healthcare, substance use disorder treatment, and harm reduction and social services for people who use drugs. Already several jurisdictions across the U.S. are looking to replicate and improve upon Measure 110 (M110 also known as the Drug Addiction Treatment and Recovery Act of 2020), and there is broad interest in evaluating the impact of the measure. Too often, however, researchers neglect to consult with people on the ground who are directly impacted by policy changes when they craft their evaluations. The failure to do so can lead to evaluations that ask the wrong questions, do not answer questions of interest to the community, or fail to take into account significant confounding variables and complexities that can affect outcomes. In addition, some evaluators focus on outcome measures but never look at how the implementation of a policy (or the failure to implement it fully) impacts those outcomes. High quality evaluations will address how M110 is being operationalized, outcomes linked to those activities, and how the broader context may or may not affect those outcomes.
To encourage thoughtful policy evaluations, we describe how M110 changes existing laws related to unregulated substances, and then provide evaluation principles and candidate metrics derived from interviews with people who use drugs (PWUD) in Oregon and our working group.

description: Resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) tuned for the Cu L edge is a possible tool to detect charge excitations in cuprate superconductors. We theoretically investigate the possibility for observing a collective charge excitation by the RIXS. The RIXS process via the intermediate state inevitably makes the spectral weight of charge excitation stronger in electron doping than in hole doping. Electron-hole asymmetry also appears in the dynamical charge structure factor, showing a new enhanced small-momentum low-energy mode in electron doping. These facts indicate a possibility of detecting the new charge mode by RIXS in electron-doped systems.

description: Based on a construction method introduced by J. Bourgain and F. Delbaen, we give a general definition of a Bourgain-Delbaen space and prove that every infinite dimensional separable $\mathcal{L}_\infty$-space is isomorphic to such a space. Furthermore, we provide an example of a $\mathcal{L}_\infty$ and asymptotic $c_0$ space not containing $c_0$.

description: Many viruses rely on the self-assembly of their capsids to protect and transport their genomic material. For many viral systems, in particular for human viruses like hepatitis B, adeno or human immunodeficiency virus, that lead to persistent infections, capsomeres are continuously produced in the cytoplasm of the host cell while completed capsids exit the cell for a new round of infection. Here we use coarse-grained Brownian dynamics simulations of a generic patchy particle model to elucidate the role of the dynamic supply of capsomeres for the reversible self-assembly of empty T1 icosahedral virus capsids. We find that for high rates of capsomere influx only a narrow range of bond strengths exists for which a steady state of continuous capsid production is possible. For bond strengths smaller and larger than this optimal value, the reaction volume becomes crowded by small and large intermediates, respectively. For lower rates of capsomere influx a broader range of bond strengths exists for which a steady state of continuous capsid production is established, although now the production rate of capsids is smaller. Thus our simulations suggest that the importance of an optimal bond strength for viral capsid assembly typical for in vitro conditions can be reduced by the dynamic influx of capsomeres in a cellular environment.

description: Given the dearth of regulatory guidance and empirical research on practices of providing payments to research participants, our study aimed to examine whether there were significant differences in payment amounts between sociobehavioral and biomedical studies and to examine study factors that may explain payment differences. This study reviewed 100 sociobehavioral and 31 biomedical protocols. Results showed that both biomedical studies and sociobehavioral studies had a wide variation of payments and, on average, the biomedical studies paid significantly more. Additionally, more biomedical studies offered payment than sociobehavioral studies. The primary factors that explained differences in payment amounts between sociobehavioral and biomedical studies were the number of study visits, study time, participation type, risk level, and research method. These findings provide pilot data to help inform future ethical decision-making and guidance regarding payment practices.

description: Precursors and postcursors (PPCs) are rare emission components detected in a handful of pulsars that appear beyond the main pulse emission, in some cases far away from it. In this paper we attempt to characterize the PPC emission in relation to the pulsar main pulse geometry. In our analysis we find that PPC components have properties very different from that of outer conal emission. The separation of the PPC components from the main pulse center remains constant with frequency. In addition the beam opening angles corresponding to the separation of PPC components from the pulsar center are much larger than the largest encountered in conal emission. Pulsar radio emission is believed to originate within the magnetic polar flux tubes due to the growth of instabilities in the outflowing relativistic plasma. Observationally, there is strong evidence that the main pulse emission originates at altitudes of about 50 neutron star radii for a canonical pulsar. Currently, the most plausible radio emission model that can explain main pulse emission is the coherent curvature radiation mechanism, wherein relativistic charged solitons are formed in a non-stationary electron-positron-pair plasma. The wider beam opening angles of PPC require the emission to emanate from larger altitudes as compared to the main pulse, if both these components originate by the same emission mechanism. We explore this possibility and find that this emission mechanism is probably inapplicable at the height of the PPC emission. We propose that the PPC emission represents a new type of radiation from pulsars with a mechanism different from that of the main pulse.

description: OBJECTIVE: To describe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) severity in pregnant patients and evaluate the association between disease severity and perinatal outcomes. METHODS: We conducted an observational cohort study of all pregnant patients with a singleton gestation and a positive test result for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) who delivered at 1 of 33 U.S. hospitals in 14 states from March 1 to July 31, 2020. Disease severity was classified by National Institutes of Health criteria. Maternal, fetal, and neonatal outcomes were abstracted by centrally trained and certified perinatal research staff. We evaluated trends in maternal characteristics and outcomes across COVID-19 severity classes and associations between severity and outcomes by multivariable modeling. RESULTS: A total of 1,219 patients were included: 47% asymptomatic, 27% mild, 14% moderate, 8% severe, 4% critical. Overall, 53% were Hispanic; there was no trend in race–ethnicity distribution by disease severity. Those with more severe illness had older mean age, higher median body mass index, and pre-existing medical comorbidities. Four maternal deaths (0.3%) were attributed to COVID-19. Frequency of perinatal death or a positive neonatal SARS-CoV-2 test result did not differ by severity. Adverse perinatal outcomes were more frequent among patients with more severe illness, including 6% (95% CI 2–11%) incidence of venous thromboembolism among those with severe–critical illness compared with 0.2% in mild–moderate and 0% in asymptomatic (P<.001 for trend across severity). In adjusted analyses, severe–critical COVID-19 was associated with increased risk of cesarean birth (59.6% vs 34.0%, adjusted relative risk [aRR] 1.57, 95% CI 1.30–1.90), hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (40.4% vs 18.8%, aRR 1.61, 95% CI 1.18–2.20), and preterm birth (41.8% vs 11.9%, aRR 3.53, 95% CI 2.42–5.14) compared with asymptomatic patients. Mild–moderate COVID-19 was not associated with adverse perinatal outcomes compared with asymptomatic patients. CONCLUSION: Compared with pregnant patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection without symptoms, those with severe–critical COVID-19, but not those with mild–moderate COVID-19, were at increased risk of perinatal complications.

description: As the city’s population grows and a new transit network comes to fruition, Austin needs not only more housing, but also more types of housing that support walkable, transit-friendly, and equitable neighborhoods, and that are available at all ranges of prices. Part of the strategy for providing such variety includes fostering missing middle housing (MMH): a spectrum of housing types between detached single-family homes and large apartment complexes. Previous efforts to revise the city’s land development code tried to foster MMH. While much literature and many precedents exist regarding duplex, accessory dwelling unit, and townhome MMH types, little precedent exists for creating small-scale, stacked flats in Austin such as 6- and 12-plexes. This report builds on prior efforts to promote MMH in Austin, leverages interviews with 23 local and national experts, and employs financial modeling of for-rent projects to identify the key barriers facing stacked flats. Interviewees stressed that zoning, permitting, and other regulations (e.g., single-family compatibility, impervious cover restrictions, heritage tree protections, etc.) inhibit MMH and stacked flats. Such projects would benefit from relaxed regulations around impervious cover, a less burdensome and less expensive site plan review process, eliminated parking requirements, and more thorough reviews of the aggregate impacts City regulations have on housing supply and affordability. For Affordability Unlocked projects, additional recommended changes include tying development waivers to the least restrictive development regulation applicable. I find that stacked flats do not seem viable as market-rate rental developments given current market conditions, but that they may be viable as affordable rental housing or as for-sale condos.
A conceptual model to guide research on the activities and effects of innovation champions
Creators: name: Shea, Christopher M.
Publisher: name: SAGE Publications Ltd

description: Background: The importance of having a champion to promote implementation efforts has been discussed in the literature for more than five decades. However, the empirical literature on champions remains underdeveloped. As a result, health organizations commonly use champions in their implementation efforts without the benefit of evidence to guide decisions about how to identify, prepare, and evaluate their champions. The goal of this article is to present a model of champion impact that draws upon previous literature and is intended to inform future research on champions and serve as a guide for practitioners serving in a champion role. Methods: The proposed model is informed by existing literature, both conceptual and empirical. Prior studies and reviews of the literature have faced challenges in terms of operationalizing and reporting on champion characteristics, activities, and impacts. The proposed model addresses this challenge by delineating these constructs, which allows for consolidation of factors previously discussed about champions as well as new hypothesized relationships between constructs. Results: The model proposes that a combination of champion commitment and champion experience and self-efficacy influence champion performance, which influences peer engagement with the champion, which ultimately influences the champion's impact. Two additional constructs have indirect effects on champion impact. Champion beliefs about the innovation and organizational support for the champion affect champion commitment. Conclusion: The proposed model is intended to support prospective studies of champions by hypothesizing relationships between constructs identified in the champion literature, specifically relationships between modifiable factors that influence a champion?s potential impact. Over time, the model should be modified, as appropriate, based on new findings from champion-related research. Plain language summary: An innovation champion is an individual who works within an organization and who dedicates themselves to promoting a change within the organization, such as implementing a new intervention or a new quality improvement effort. Health organizations commonly rely on innovation champions, and existing literature on champions suggests they are important for successful organizational change. However, many questions remain about what effective champions do and what types of support they need to perform their champion role well. The goal of this article is to present a model of champion impact that draws upon previous literature and is intended to serve as a guide for future research on champions. In doing so, the model could support coordinated research efforts that answer questions about the characteristics, activities, and impacts of champions. Ultimately, this research could lead to development of useful guidance and tools for health system leaders to support champions within their organizations.
