description: Using asteroseismic data from the Kepler satellite, we explore the systematic uncertainties arising from changes in the input physics used when constructing evolution models of solar-type stars. We assess the impact of including atomic diffusion and of varying the metallicity mixture on the determination of global stellar parameters (i.e., radius, mass, and age). We find significant systematic uncertainties on global stellar parameters when diffusion is included in stellar grids. Furthermore, we find the systematic uncertainties on the global stellar parameters to be comparable to the statistical uncertainties when a different metallicity mixture is employed in stellar grids.

description: OBJECTIVES This study examined the value of endothelial shear stress (ESS) estimated in 3-dimensional quantitative coronary angiography (3D-QCA) models in detecting plaques that are likely to progress and cause events. BACKGROUND Cumulative evidence has shown that plaque characteristics and ESS derived from intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-based reconstructions enable prediction of lesions that will cause cardiovascular events. However, the prognostic value of ESS estimated by 3D-QCA in nonflow limiting lesions is yet unclear. METHODS This study analyzed baseline virtual histology (VH)-IVUS and angiographic data from 28 lipid-rich lesions (i.e., fibroatheromas) that caused major adverse cardiovascular events or required revascularization (MACE-R) at 5-year follow-up and 119 lipid-rich plaques from a control group that remained quiescent. The segments studied by VH-IVUS at baseline were reconstructed using 3D-QCA software. In the obtained geometries, blood flow simulation was performed, and the pressure gradient across the lipid-rich plaque and the mean ESS values in 3-mm segments were estimated. The additive value of these hemodynamic indexes in predicting MACE-R beyond plaque characteristics was examined. RESULTS MACE-R lesions were longer, had smaller minimum lumen area, increased plaque burden (PB), were exposed to higher ESS, and exhibited a higher pressure gradient. In multivariable analysis, PB (hazard ratio: 1.08; p = 0.004) and the maximum 3-mm ESS value (hazard ratio: 1.11; p = 0.001) were independent predictors of MACE-R. Lesions exposed to high ESS (>4.95 Pa) with a high-risk anatomy (minimal lumen area <4 mm2 and PB >70%) had a higher MACE-R rate (53.8%) than those with a low-risk anatomy exposed to high ESS (31.6%) or those exposed to low ESS who had high- (20.0%) or low-risk anatomy (7.1%; p

description: Extremely high temperatures pose an immediate threat to humans and ecosystems. In recent years, many regions on land and in the ocean experienced heat waves with devastating impacts that would have been highly unlikely without human‐induced climate change. Impacts are particularly severe when heat waves occur in regions with high exposure of people or crops. The recent 2018 spring‐to‐summer season was characterized by several major heat and dry extremes. On daily average between May and July 2018 about 22% of the populated and agricultural areas north of 30° latitude experienced concurrent hot temperature extremes. Events of this type were unprecedented prior to 2010, while similar conditions were experienced in the 2010 and 2012 boreal summers. Earth System Model simulations of present‐day climate, that is, at around +1 °C global warming, also display an increase of concurrent heat extremes. Based on Earth System Model simulations, we show that it is virtually certain (using Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change calibrated uncertainty language) that the 2018 north hemispheric concurrent heat events would not have occurred without human‐induced climate change. Our results further reveal that the average high‐exposure area projected to experience concurrent warm and hot spells in the Northern Hemisphere increases by about 16% per additional +1 °C of global warming. A strong reduction in fossil fuel emissions is paramount to reduce the risks of unprecedented global‐scale heat wave impacts.

description: We experimentally investigate the spectro-temporal characteristics of coherent supercontinuum (SC) pulses generated in several implementations of silica and soft-glass all-normal dispersion (ANDi) photonic crystal fibers optimized for pumping with Erbium (Er):fiber femtosecond laser technology. We characterize the resulting SC using time-domain ptychography, which is especially suitable for the measurement of complex, spectrally broadband ultrashort pulses. The measurements of the ANDi SC pulses reveal intricate pulse shapes, considerable temporal fine structure, and oscillations on time scales of < 25 femtoseconds, which differ from the smoothness and simplicity of temporal profiles obtained in numerical simulations and observed in previous experiments. We link the measured complex features to temporal sub-structures of the pump pulse, such as pre- and post-pulses and low-level pedestals, which are common in high pulse energy ultrafast Er:fiber systems. We also observe spectro-temporal structures consistent with incoherent noise amplification in weakly birefringent fiber samples. Our results highlight the importance of the pump source and polarization-maintaining (PM) fibers for high-quality SC generation and have practical relevance for many ultrafast photonics applications employing ANDi fiber-based SC sources.

description: Reference values for radius and tibia strength using multiple-stack high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) with homogenized finite element analysis are presented in order to derive critical values improving risk prediction models of osteoporosis. Gender and femoral neck areal bone mineral density (aBMD) were independent predictors of bone strength. INTRODUCTION The purpose was to obtain reference values for radius and tibia bone strength computed by using the homogenized finite element analysis (hFE) using multiple stacks with a HR-pQCT. METHODS Male and female healthy participants aged 20-39 years were recruited at the University Hospital of Bern. They underwent interview and clinical examination including hand grip, gait speed and DXA of the hip. The nondominant forearm and tibia were scanned with a double and a triple-stack protocol, respectively, using HR-pQCT (XCT II, SCANCO Medical AG). Bone strength was estimated by using the hFE analysis, and reference values were calculated using quantile regression. Multivariable analyses were performed to identify clinical predictors of bone strength. RESULTS Overall, 46 women and 41 men were recruited with mean ages of 25.1 (sd 5.0) and 26.2 (sd 5.2) years. Sex-specific reference values for bone strength were established. Men had significantly higher strength for radius (mean (sd) 6640 (1800) N vs. 4110 (1200) N; p

description: OBJECTIVE To determine risk factors for negative global treatment outcomes (GTO) as self-assessed by patients undergoing surgical treatment for lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). METHODS Patients from the Spine Tango registry undergoing first-time surgery for LSS were analyzed. The primary outcome was GTO measured at the last available follow-up ≥3 months postoperatively using a single question rating how much the operation had helped the patient's back problem (negative=no change/operation made things worse). A 2-level logistic mixed effects model with the treating department as the random effect was used to assess factors associated with a negative outcome. RESULTS 4,504 patients from 39 departments in ten countries were include. Overall, 14.4% of patients reported a negative GTO after an average follow-up of 1.3 years. In patients with dominant leg pain, negative outcome was associated with higher baseline back pain; in those with dominant back pain, it was associated with higher baseline back pain, ASA≥3, lower age, not having rigid stabilization, not having disc herniation, and the vertebral level of the most severely affected segment (L5/S1 vs L3/4). Four departments had significantly higher odds of a negative outcome, while one department had significantly lower odds. Three out of the four negative effects were related to two departments from one country. CONCLUSIONS LSS surgery fails to help at least one in 10 patients. High baseline back pain is the most important factor associated with a negative treatment outcome. Department-level and potentially country-level factors of unknown origin explained a non-negligible variation in the treatment results.

description: This article aims to develop a more profound understanding of the heterogeneous behaviour in the field of Information Systems (IS) Outsourcing in German organizations. Based on multiple case studies in the German Manufacturing Industry, it demonstrates that resource deficits serve as an overriding contingency for the outsourcing decision. However, specific knowledge on internal business processes may lead to production cost advantages for the firm and, thus, inhibits the outsourcing of IS functions. Furthermore, cultural variables like distrust and sociability serve as additional contingencies for explaining heterogeneous outsourcing patterns.

description: The growing number of applications of doped organic semiconductors drives the development of highly conductive and stable materials. Lack of under- standing about the formation and properties of mobile charges limits the ability to improve material design. Thus the largely unexplored photophysics of doped systems are addressed here to gain insights about the characteris- tics of doping-induced polarons and their interactions with their surround- ings. The study of the ultrafast optical processes in a self-doped conjugated polyelectrolyte reveals that polarons not only affect their environment via Coulomb effects but also strongly couple electronically to nearby neutral sites. This is unambiguously demonstrated by the simultaneous depletion of both the neutral and polaronic transitions, as well as by correlated excited state dynamics, when either transition is targeted during ultrafast experiments. The results contrast with the conventional picture of localized intragap polaron states but agree with revised models for the optical transitions in doped organic materials, which predict a common ground level for polarons and neighboring neutral sites. Such delocalization of polarons into the frontier transport levels of their surroundings could enhance the electronic connectivity between doped and undoped sites, contributing to the formation of conductive charges.

description: Organic–inorganic perovskites are one of the most promising photovoltaic materials for the design of next generation solar cells. The lead-based perovskite prepared with methylammonium and iodide was the first in demonstrating high power conversion efficiency, and it remains one of the most used materials today. However, perovskites prepared by mixing several halides and several cations systematically yield higher efficiencies than “pure” methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI3) devices. In this work, we unravel the excited-state properties of a mixed-halide (iodide and bromide) and mixed-cation (methylammonium and formamidinium) perovskite. Combining time-resolved photoluminescence, transient absorption, and optical-pump–terahertz-probe experiments with density functional theory calculations, we show that the population of higher-lying excited states in the mixed material increases the lifetime of photo-generated charge carriers upon above- bandgap excitation. We suggest that alloying different halides and different cations reduces the structural symmetry of the perovskite, which partly releases the selection rules to populate the higher-energy states upon light absorption. Our investigation thus shows that mixed halide perovskites should be considered as an electronically different material than MAPbI3, paving the way toward further materials optimization and improved power conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells.

description: Background: Cannot intubate-cannot ventilate situations in healthy children are uncommon but are often associated with poor outcome. Several airway management algorithms suggest emergency tracheal access. Little agreement exists on how to perform emergency front of the neck access (eFONA) in children <8 yr. We studied the learning curves of clinicians performing simulated paediatric eFONA. Methods: After watching an instructional video, 50 physicians, from five medical specialties, performed 10 emergency tracheotomies on rabbit cadavers. We analysed their learning curves relative to performance time and concurring injuries. Results: With an overall success rate of 94%, performance time decreased from 107 s (standard deviation [sd], 45) to 55 s (sd 17) over 10 attempts. The learning curve was steep between the first and the fourth attempts with an 11% decrease in performance time (95% confidence interval [CI], 9-13%; P<0.001) per attempt and then flattened to a 4% (95% CI, 3-5%; P<0.001) decrease per attempt between the fourth and the tenth attempt. Age, years of clinical experience, and sex showed a significant effect on the learning curve, whereas medical specialty and adult eFONA experience did not. The 58% (95% CI, 44-72%) probability for severe injury during the first attempt decreased to 14% (95% CI, 8-20%) at the second attempt. Men were more likely to cause minor injuries than women (P<0.001). Conclusions: Irrespective of medical specialty, paediatric clinicians acquired the eFONA technique within four attempts and were on average able to establish an airway in <1 min when performing emergency tracheotomy on a paediatric airway simulator.

description: Future lightweight, flexible, and wearable electronics will employ visible-light- communication schemes to interact within indoor environments. Organic photodiodes are particularly well suited for such technologies as they enable chemically tailored optoelectronic performance and fabrication by printing techniques on thin and flexible substrates. However, previous methods have failed to address versatile functionality regarding wavelength selectivity without increasing fabrication complexity. This work introduces a general solution for printing wavelength-selective bulk-heterojunction photodetectors through engineering of the ink formulation. Nonfullerene acceptors are incorporated in a transparent polymer donor matrix to narrow and tune the response in the visible range without optical filters or light-management techniques. This approach effectively decouples the optical response from the viscoelastic ink properties, simplifying process development. A thorough morphological and spectroscopic investigation finds excellent charge-carrier dynamics enabling state-of-the-art responsivities >102 mA W−1 and cutoff frequencies >1.5 MHz. Finally, the color selectivity and high performance are demonstrated in a filterless visible-light-communication system capable of demultiplexing intermixed optical signals.

description: reldist estimates and analyzes the relative distribution of outcomes between two groups (two-sample relative distribution) or between two variables (paired relative distribution). The relative distribution is the distribution of the relative ranks that the outcomes from one distribution take on in the other distribution. An example would be the relative positions that female wages take on in the distribution of male wages. reldist can be used to estimate and plot the relative density function (relative PDF), a histogram of the relative distribution, or the relative distribution function (relative CDF). Furthermore, it computes relative polarization indices as well as descriptive statistics of the relative data, and supports the decomposition of the relative distribution by adjusting for location, scale, and shape differences.

description: Using longitudinal data on university leaver cohorts in the period from 2006 to 2016, we investigate the impact of the Bologna reform on Swiss graduates’ returns to higher education. Drawing on the job market signaling model, we expect lower returns for graduates who enter the labor market with a bachelor’s degree. Moreover, we expect that the initial wage difference between bachelor and master graduates will become less volatile over time, since employers constantly update their beliefs about graduates’ employability. Controlling for selection into employment and a number of different signals sent by the graduates, we find a persistent advantage of a master’s over a bachelor’s degree. The new degrees, and especially a bachelor’s degree, did indeed serve as a noisy signal about graduates’ productivity in the first years of the Bologna process.

description: In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird eine nichtparametrische Identifikationsmethode für stark nichtlineare Systeme entwickelt, welche in der Lage ist, die Nichtlinearitäten basierend auf Schwingungsmessungen in Form von allgemeinen dreidimensionalen Rückstellkraft-Flächen zu rekonstruieren ohne Vorkenntnisse über deren funktionale Form. Die Vorgehensweise basiert auf nichtlinearen Kalman Filter Algorithmen, welche durch Ergänzung des Zustandsvektors in Parameterschätzer verwandelt werden können. In dieser Arbeit wird eine Methode beschrieben, die diese bekannte parametrische Lösung zu einem nichtparametrischen Verfahren weiterentwickelt. Dafür wird ein allgemeines Nichtlinearitätsmodell eingeführt, welches die Rückstellkräfte durch zeitvariable Koeffizienten der Zustandsvariablen beschreibt, die als zusätzliche Zustandsgrößen geschätzt werden. Aufgrund der probabilistischen Formulierung der Methode, können trotz signifikantem Messrauschen störfreie Rückstellkraft-Charakteristiken identifiziert werden. Durch den Kalman Filter Algorithmus ist die Beobachtbarkeit der Nichtlinearitäten bereits durch eine Messgröße pro Systemfreiheitsgrad gegeben. Außerdem ermöglicht diese Beschreibung die Durchführung einer vollständigen Identifikation, wobei die restlichen konstanten Parameter des Systems zusätzlich geschätzt werden. Die Leistungsfähigkeit des entwickelten Verfahrens wird anhand von virtuellen und realen Identifikationsbeispielen nichtlinearer mechanischen Systeme mit ein und drei Freiheitsgraden demonstriert.

description: The representation and processing of numerosity is a crucial cognitive capacity. Converging evidence points to the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) as primary "number" region. However, the exact role of the left and right PPC for different types of numerical and arithmetic tasks remains controversial. In this study, we used high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) to further investigate the causal involvement of the PPC during approximative, nonsymbolic mental arithmetic. Eighteen healthy participants received three sessions of anodal HD-tDCS at 1-week intervals in counterbalanced order: left PPC, right PPC, and sham stimulation. Results showed an improved performance during online parietal HD-tDCS (vs. sham) for subtraction problems. Specifically, the general tendency to underestimate the results of subtraction problems (i.e., the "operational momentum effect") was reduced during online parietal HD-tDCS. There was no difference between left and right stimulation. This study thus provides new evidence for a causal involvement of the left and right PPC for approximate nonsymbolic arithmetic and advances the promising use of noninvasive brain stimulation in increasing cognitive functions.

Shocking Interest Rate Floors

description: We analyze central bank debt as a tool to control money market rates. We show in a theoretical model that the money market rate increases with the volume of, and yield on, central bank debt. Moreover, issuing central bank debt implements an interest rate floor, similar to paying interest on reserves. We then exploit the unique institutional setting of a Swiss debt security program to identify the dynamic causal effects of two orthogonal shocks through heteroscedasticity. The money market rate shock has modest effects on other financial market variables. The expectation shock causes a strong and persistent appreciation of the Swiss franc, a decline in stock prices, a decline in long-term interest rates, and a rise in corporate bond risk premia. The two shocks explain up to 80% of the forecast-error variance in these variables.

description: The development of monoclonal antibodies has dramatically changed the outcome of patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), the most common hematological malignancy. However, despite the satisfying results of monoclonal antibody treatment, only few NHL patients are permanently cured with single-agent therapies. In this context, radioimmunotherapy, the administration of radionuclides conjugated to monoclonal antibodies, is aimed to augment the single-agent efficacy of immunotherapy in order to deliver targeted radiation to tumors, particularly CD20+ B-cell lymphomas. Based on evidence from several trials in NHL, the radiolabeled antibodies 90Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan (Zevalin, Spectrum Pharmaceuticals) and 131I-tositumomab (Bexxar, GlaxoSmithKline) received FDA approval in 2002 and 2003, respectively. However, none of the two radioimmunotherapeutic agents has been broadly applied in clinical practice. The main reason for the under-utilization of radioimmunotherapy includes economic and logistic considerations. However, concerns about potential side effects have also been raised. Driven by these developments, we performed retrospective analysis of adverse events reporting Zevalin or Bexxar, extracted from the FDA's Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) and the World Health Organization's VigiBase repository. Our results indicate that the two radioimmunotherapeutic agents have both related and distinct side effect profiles and confirm their known toxicological considerations. Our work also suggests that computational analysis of real-world post-marketing data can provide informative clinical insights. While more prospective studies are necessary to fully characterize the efficacy and safety of radioimmunotherapy, we expect that it has not yet reached its full therapeutic potential in modern hematological oncology.

description: PURPOSE To investigate whether autofluorescence lifetime patterns within retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) atrophy differ between age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and Stargardt disease (STGD). METHODS Mean retinal autofluorescence lifetimes were measured in a short and a long spectral channel (SSC: 498-560 nm; LSC: 560-720 nm). Mean retinal fluorescence lifetimes were analyzed with corresponding clinical features, fundus images, fundus autofluorescence intensity images, and optical coherence tomography. Mean fluorescence lifetime values of atrophic areas were compared between the two cohorts and within the same patient to adjacent nonatrophic regions. RESULTS Mean fluorescence lifetimes within areas with RPE atrophy of 13 patients with STGD (mean age ± SEM 43.7 ± 5 years) and 30 patients with geographic atrophy (mean age: 78 ± 2 years) were analyzed and compared to age-matched healthy participants. The mean area of RPE atrophy in STGD and AMD was 6.6 ± 2.3 mm2 (range: 0.66-33.17 mm2) and 17.5 ± 3.8 mm2 (range: 0.58-50.02 mm2), respectively. In patients with AMD, atrophic areas revealed significantly longer mean fluorescence lifetime values as compared with patients with STGD (SSC: 997 ± 60 vs. 363 ± 26 ps; LSC: 880 ± 46 vs. 393 ± 23 ps; p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS This study established that RPE atrophy in patients secondary to STGD and AMD display distinctive mean fluorescence lifetime characteristics. As retinal fluorescence lifetimes within areas of RPE atrophy were significantly longer in AMD patients, the analysis of specific lifetime patterns may provide additional insight into the disease processes and the pathogenetic mechanisms in the development of atrophic patches in AMD and STGD.

description: Segmented deep brain stimulation leads feature directional electrodes, that allow for a finer spatial control of electrical stimulation compared to traditional ring-shaped electrodes. These segmented leads have demonstrated enlarged therapeutic windows and have thus the potential to improve the treatment of Parkinson’s disease patients. However, this is accompanied by complex and time-consuming device programming. Here, we investigated whether directional local field potentials can help identify the best stimulation direction to assist device programming. Four Parkinson’s disease patients underwent routine implantation of the subthalamic nucleus. First, local field potentials were recorded in three directions for two conditions: In one condition the patient was at rest, in the other condition the patient moved their arm. Second, current thresholds for therapeutic and side effects were identified intraoperatively for directional stimulation. This determined the 1st, 2nd and 3rd best stimulation direction. The spectral power of the beta frequency band (13–35 Hz) and its sub-bands were analyzed in more detail post-hoc. The direction with the highest spectral power in the total beta band was most indicative of the 1st best stimulation direction. The resting condition seemed to be slightly more informative about the best stimulation direction than the moving condition. Directional local field potentials can therefore help identify the best stimulation direction. Further studies with larger sample sizes are needed to better distinguish the informative value of different conditions and the beta sub-bands.

title: Musik und Tanz bei der Knabenbeschneidungszeremonie "savatsy"
Creators: name: Gruber, Cornelia
Year: 2010

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit basiert auf einem Forschungsaufenthalt bei den Antanosy des Onilahy-Tals in der Gemeinde Belamoty und Umgebung in Südmadagaskar. Gegenstand der Arbeit ist die Musik und der Tanz bei der Knabenbeschneidungszeremonie savatsy. Neben der Darstellung der methodischen Vorgangweise während der Feldforschung - wie etwa Beobachtung, Teilnahme an Festen sowie Interviews - und Beschreibungen der vorgefundenen Aufnahmesituationen wird anfänglich besonders auf den Kontext von Musik und Tanz bei der Knabenbeschneidungszeremonie savatsy eingegangen. Im Zuge der über mehrere Tage andauernden Feier, deren essentielle Bestandteile Musik und Tanz sind, wird der Knabe zum Mann und somit zum vollwertigen Mitglied der Lineage väterlicherseits initiiert. Eine Einführung in die gesellschaftliche Strukturen der Antanosy, den Ahnenglauben und das Verhältnis der Lineages der beiden Elternteile des Knaben zueinander sowie die Beschreibung des Ablaufs der Zeremonie sollen zu einem Verständnis für die Bedeutung dieses Ereignisses beitragen. Das Kapitel über die Trommel-Flöten-Ensembles, die typischerweise beim savatsy auftreten, gewährt einen Einblick in die große Vielfalt der Trommeltypen und Flöten Madagaskars. Die unterschiedlichen Arten und Kontexte dieses Ensembletyps, in den Gemeinden Belamoty und Fenoandala als aponga-Ensembles bezeichnet, werden beschrieben und die während der Feldforschung aufgenommenen Ensembles vorgestellt. Das Kapitel zur musikalischen Analyse zeigt die Struktur ausgewählter vorort aufgenommener Stücke auf. Zwei der drei Trommeln, die in diesen Ensembles eingesetzt werden, die aponga denony, eine beidseitig bespielte Doppelfelltrommel und die karataky, eine Doppelfelltrommel mit Schnarrsaite, bilden den Bezugsrahmen der Stücke: die Elementarpulsation und den Beat, der die Pulsation ternär unterteilt. Die dritte Trommel, die beidseitig bespielte Doppelfelltrommel aponga fagnotany, die jedoch höher als die aponga denony gestimmt ist, wird üblicherweise vom Leiter des Ensembles gespielt. Dieser nützt die vielseitige Teilbarkeit der Formzahl zwölf aus und spielt in seinem individuellen Stil polymetrische, binäre und ternäre Patterns. Die beiden Flöten, in Belamoty als sesoly bezeichnet, spielen zwei unterschiedliche Parts. Der höhere ist in seiner Patternstruktur variantenreicher während der tiefere das harmonische Fundament der Stücke bildet. Neben der Musik wird in dieser Arbeit auch auf den Tanz der Männer und Frauen beim savatsy eingegangen. Die Tänze - der Tanz der Frauen mit dem Regenschirm, bereny, und der Tanz der Männer mit dem Speer, mamoandevo - finden bei den Festen bei jedem Aufeinandertreffen der beiden Lineages des Knaben statt. Der Diplomarbeit liegt eine Begleit-DVD bei
