ΑΤΛΑΣ

description: Στην σημερινή εποχή η στροφή στην τεχνολογία και κυρίως στα πληροφοριακά συστήματα αποτελεί μονόδρομο για επιχειρήσεις και οργανισμούς τόσο δημόσιους όσο και ιδιωτικούς. Μέσω των τεχνολογιών πληροφορικής οργανώνεται πλέον αυτόματα το σύνολο των δομών και των λειτουργιών των περισσότερων φορέων και απλουστεύονται οι διαδικασίες. Μέσω της διπλωματικής αυτής διερευνάται αν τα πληροφοριακά συστήματα που έχουν εισβάλλει κατά κόρον σε όλες τις πτυχές της ζωής μας συμβάλλουν αποτελεσματικά στην σωστή εφαρμογή των αρχών της Διοίκηση Ολικής Ποιότητας στο δημόσιο τομέα. Συγκεκριμένα γίνεται εστίαση στο πληροφοριακό σύστημα Υποστήριξης Υπηρεσιών Πληροφορικής Άτλας, μια εφαρμογή εξυπηρέτησης χρηστών του Υπουργείου Μετανάστευσης και Ασύλου, καθώς και προσπάθεια συσχέτισής του με την Διοίκηση Ολικής Ποιότητας. Για το σκοπό αυτό αναζητήθηκαν αρχικά μέσω βιβλιογραφίας όλα εκείνα τα στοιχεία προκειμένου να αποδειχθεί η συσχέτιση των Πληροφοριακών Συστημάτων με την έννοια της Διοίκησης Ολικής Ποιότητας, ενώ στη συνέχεια πραγματοποιήθηκε πρωτογενής εμπειρική έρευνα μέσω της συμπλήρωσης ερωτηματολογίου από το σύνολο των υπαλλήλων του Υπουργείου μετανάστευσης και Ασύλου. Κύριος στόχος της παρούσας εργασίας είναι να αποδειχθεί πως το Πληροφοριακό Σύστημα «ΑΤΛΑΣ» προάγει τη Διοίκηση Ολικής Ποιότητας και συνεισφέρει στην παροχή ποιοτικότερων υπηρεσιών στους χρήστες του.

description: The dense O-glycosylation of mucins plays an important role in the defensive properties of the mucus hydrogel. Aberrant glycosylation is often correlated with inflammation and pathology such as COPD, cancer, and Crohn’s disease. The inherent complexity of glycans and the diversity in the O-core structure constitute fundamental challenges for the analysis of mucin-type O-glycans. Due to coexistence of multiple isomers, multidimensional workflows such as LC-MS are required. To separate the highly polar carbohydrates, porous graphitized carbon is often used as a stationary phase. However, LC-MS workflows are time-consuming and lack reproducibility. Here we present a rapid alternative for separating and identifying O-glycans released from mucins based on trapped ion mobility mass spectrometry. Compared to established LC-MS, the acquisition time is reduced from an hour to two minutes. To test the validity, the developed workflow was applied to sputum samples from cystic fibrosis patients to map O-glycosylation features associated with disease.

description: Today, assumptions about probable future developments (at least as far as they make use of quantifiable scientific methods and are not pure speculation) are generally based on data from the past. An interesting way to analyze the future through this type of data is text mining or individual methods out of the spectrum of text mining, such as topic modeling. Topic Modeling itself is a combination of quantitative and qualitative methodology and is based on the full spectrum of social science methodology. Therefore, the method is an interesting way for futures research to analyze futures. This publication addresses the question of how a combination of different methods can contribute to trend monitoring or trend mining. For this purpose, a set of scientific publications was first generated with the help of a search query in the Web of Science (WoS), which is the basis for all evaluations and statements and topics. In essence, the method considered here should be more fully integrated into the scientific practice of futures research because it can make a valuable contribution to estimating future development based on past development.

description: Quantum machine learning models have shown successful generalization performance even when trained with few data. In this work, through systematic randomization experiments, we show that traditional approaches to understanding generalization fail to explain the behavior of such quantum models. Our experiments reveal that state-of-the-art quantum neural networks accurately fit random states and random labeling of training data. This ability to memorize random data defies current notions of small generalization error, problematizing approaches that build on complexity measures such as the VC dimension, the Rademacher complexity, and all their uniform relatives. We complement our empirical results with a theoretical construction showing that quantum neural networks can fit arbitrary labels to quantum states, hinting at their memorization ability. Our results do not preclude the possibility of good generalization with few training data but rather rule out any possible guarantees based only on the properties of the model family. These findings expose a fundamental challenge in the conventional understanding of generalization in quantum machine learning and highlight the need for a paradigm shift in the study of quantum models for machine learning tasks.

description: Oxide-derived copper (OD-Cu) materials exhibit extraordinary catalytic activities in the electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR), which likely relates to non-metallic material constituents formed in transitions between the oxidized and the reduced material. In time-resolved operando experiment, we track the structural dynamics of copper oxide reduction and its re-formation separately in the bulk of the catalyst material and at its surface using X-ray absorption spectroscopy and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy. Surface-species transformations progress within seconds whereas the subsurface (bulk) processes unfold within minutes. Evidence is presented that electroreduction of OD-Cu foams results in kinetic trapping of subsurface (bulk) oxide species, especially for cycling between strongly oxidizing and reducing potentials. Specific reduction-oxidation protocols may optimize formation of bulk-oxide species and thereby catalytic properties. Together with the Raman-detected surface-adsorbed *OH and C-containing species, the oxide species could collectively facilitate *CO adsorption, resulting an enhanced selectivity towards valuable C2+ products during CO2RR.

description: Several bacterial toxins and viruses can deform membranes through multivalent binding to lipids for clathrin-independent endocytosis. However, it remains unclear, how membrane deformation and endocytic internalization are mechanistically linked. Here we show that many lipid-binding virions induce membrane deformation and clathrin-independent endocytosis, suggesting a common mechanism based on multivalent lipid binding by globular particles. We create a synthetic cellular system consisting of a lipid-anchored receptor in the form of GPI-anchored anti-GFP nanobodies and a multivalent globular binder exposing 180 regularly-spaced GFP molecules on its surface. We show that these globular, 40 nm diameter, particles bind to cells expressing the receptor, deform the plasma membrane upon adhesion and become endocytosed in a clathrin-independent manner. We explore the role of the membrane adhesion energy in endocytosis by using receptors with affinities varying over 7 orders of magnitude. Using this system, we find that once a threshold in adhesion energy is overcome to allow for membrane deformation, endocytosis occurs reliably. Multivalent, binding-induced membrane deformation by globular binders is thus sufficient for internalization to occur and we suggest it is the common, purely biophysical mechanism for lipid-binding mediated endocytosis of toxins and pathogens.

description: Taking the example of conspiracy-related communication online as one form of contentious politics, this study examines the data collection challenges for multidimensional comparative research across platforms, time, and cultural embeddings. It compares the architectures and features relevant to data collection, access regimes, and use cultures for a set of digital platforms and communication venues. Differentiating between actor- and content-based strategies, this study discusses the potentials and limitations of these approaches, considering differences in platforms, temporal dynamics, and cultural embeddings as well as several layers of equivalence. The discussion highlights crucial insights into designing data collection strategies in multidimensional comparative studies.

description: ABSTRACT

For the last 15 years, the University of Vienna has supported innovation in the field of research data management by offering needs-oriented resources to researchers, students, and scientific support staff. Since 2022, the university has renewed its focus on creating discipline-specific services that permeate hierarchies and support long-term researcher competency with the goal of guiding a shift in scientific culture towards FAIR practices. The RDM Policy of the University of Vienna mandates that researchers receive advice and support on ways to publish, share, or preserve their research data long-term. To meet this need, the research data management team at the university has designed dedicated training courses for data stewards, researchers and (PhD) students. In this presentation, we will share our program’s development process, challenges, and hard-earned successes.

Data stewards: The Data Steward Certificate Course is a two-semester (part-time) continuing education program. Data stewards serve as a link between researchers, infrastructure providers, policy-makers, and funding agencies. The certificate course prepares individuals to provide support, deliver training, assess needs, and manage requirements. The course participants acquire relevant competences from (inter)national experts as well as in exchange with each other. The training program also offers concrete use cases of how embedded data stewards can support researchers and build relationships. This summer, 25 data stewards from 10 countries finished the course. The next round will begin again in October 2023. The lessons learned throughout the development and the first round of the course can serve as an example of creating coordinated data stewardship training on the national level.

Researchers and PhD students: Since 2021, the University of Vienna committed itself to evaluating and re-working its RDM training portfolio and services. Between 2022 and 2023, three discipline-specific embedded data stewards were hired to support faculties in the life sciences and humanities. In addition to the pre-existing training courses offered at the university, new discipline-specific workshops and open educational resources (OER) have been developed to support student and researcher growth and learning. During this talk, we will share our experiences in expanding this program and highlight our most successful strategies for engagement and methods of adapting to the ever-shifting RDM landscape.

Overall, the University of Vienna strives for excellence in RDM education. In this presentation, we will discuss our experiences and hopefully inspire RDM professionals as well as research and teaching staff from various disciplines currently developing OER and cultivating sustainable communities of practices.

description: Deserts represent an extreme challenge for photosynthetic life. Despite their aridity, they are often inhabited by diverse microscopic communities of cyanobacteria. These organisms are commonly found in lithic habitats, where they are partially sheltered from extremes of temperature and UV radiation. However, living under the rock surface imposes additional constraints, such as limited light availability, and enrichment of longer wavelengths than are typically usable for oxygenic photosynthesis. Some cyanobacteria from the genus Chroococcidiopsis can use this light to photosynthesize, in a process known as far-red light photoacclimation, or FaRLiP. This genus has commonly been reported from both hot and cold deserts. However, not all Chroococcidiopsis strains carry FaRLiP genes, thus motivating our study into the interplay between FaRLiP and extreme lithic environments. The abundance of sequence data and strains provided the necessary material for an in-depth phylogenetic study, involving spectroscopy, microscopy, and determination of pigment composition, as well as gene and genome analyses. Pigment analyses revealed the presence of red-shifted chlorophylls d and f in all FaRLiP strains tested. In addition, eight genus-level taxa were defined within the encompassing Chroococcidiopsidales, clarifying the phylogeny of this long-standing polyphyletic order. FaRLiP is near universally present in a generalist genus identified in a wide variety of environments, Chroococcidiopsis sensu stricto, while it is rare or absent in closely related, extremophile taxa, including those preferentially inhabiting deserts. This likely reflects the evolutionary process of gene loss in specialist lineages.

description: Protein palmitoylation, a cellular process occurring at the membrane-cytosol interface, is orchestrated by members of the DHHC enzyme family and plays a pivotal role in regulating various cellular functions. The M2 protein of the influenza virus, which is acylated at a membrane-near amphiphilic helix serves as a model for studying the intricate signals governing acylation and its interaction with the cognate enzyme, DHHC20. We investigate it here using both experimental and computational assays. We report that altering the biophysical properties of the amphiphilic helix, particularly by shortening or disrupting it, results in a substantial reduction in M2 palmitoylation, but does not entirely abolish the process. Intriguingly, DHHC20 exhibits an augmented affinity for some M2 mutants compared to the wildtype M2. Molecular dynamics simulations unveil interactions between amino acids of the helix and the catalytically significant DHHC and TTXE motifs of DHHC20. Our findings suggest that the binding of M2 to DHHC20, while not highly specific, is mediated by requisite contacts, possibly instigating the transfer of fatty acids. A comprehensive comprehension of protein palmitoylation mechanisms is imperative for the development of DHHC-specific inhibitors, holding promise for the treatment of diverse human diseases.

description: Sharks a critical group of elasmobranchs face severe threats from over-exploitation driven by high demand for shark fin soup in the USA and China. They are targeted for sport, commercial fisheries, and bycatch. Sharks and rays, related species, provide products such as meat, fins, liver, skin, cartilage, jaws, and teeth. Finning, removing fins and discarding the body is notably wasteful. Shark meat is used for human and livestock consumption while fins are prized in East Asia. Shark skin is utilized for luxury items and cartilage and liver oil are marketed for unproven health benefits.

description: Background Zoonotic microorganisms are increasingly impacting human health worldwide. Due to the development of the global population, humans and animals live in shared and progressively crowded ecosystems, which enhances the risk of zoonoses. Although Campylobacter species are among the most important bacterial zoonotic agents worldwide, the molecular mechanisms of many host and pathogen factors involved in colonisation and infection are poorly understood. Campylobacter jejuni colonises the crypts of the human colon and causes acute inflammatory processes. The mucus and associated proteins play a central host-protective role in this process. The aim of this study was to explore the regulation of specific glycosyltransferase genes relevant to differential mucin-type O-glycosylation that could influence host colonisation and infection by C. jejuni. Results Since microRNAs are known to be important regulators of the mammalian host cell response to bacterial infections, we focussed on the role of miR-125a-5p in C. jejuni infection. Combining in vitro and in vivo approaches, we show that miR-125a-5p regulates the expression of the sialyltransferase ST3GAL1 in an infection-dependent manner. The protein ST3GAL1 shows markedly increased intestinal levels in infected mice, with enhanced distribution in the mucosal epithelial layer in contrast to naïve mice. Conclusion From our previous studies and the data presented here, we conclude that miR-125a-5p and the previously reported miR-615-3p are involved in regulating the glycosylation patterns of relevant host cell response proteins during C. jejuni infection. The miRNA-dependent modulation of mucin-type O-glycosylation could be part of the mucosal immune response, but also a pathogen-driven modification that allows colonisation and infection of the mammalian host.

description: Background Escherichia coli bacteria capable of producing the toxin Stx2e and possessing F18-fimbriae (edema disease E. coli, EDEC) are considered causative agents of porcine oedema disease. This disease, which usually occurs in piglets shortly after weaning, has a high lethality in affected animals and can lead to high economic losses in piglet rearing. The aim of this cross-sectional field study was to determine the prevalence of EDEC in weaned piglets in Germany at pen and farm levels. Results Ninety-nine farms with unknown history of infections with shigatoxin-producing E. coli (STEC) and oedema disease were sampled. On each farm, up to five pens were selected for sampling (n = 481). The piglets in these pens were at an age 1–3 weeks after weaning. Single faecal samples (n = 2405) and boot swabs (n = 479) were collected from the floor. On 50 farms, cotton ropes were additionally used to collect oral fluid samples (n = 185) and rope wash out samples (n = 231) from the selected pens. All samples were analyzed by bacterial culture combined with a duplex PCR for the presence of the corresponding genes stx2e and fedA (major subunit protein of F18 fimbriae). In addition, whole DNA specimens extracted from boot swabs, oral fluid samples, and rope wash out samples were directly examined by duplex PCR for DNA of stx2e and fedA. A pen was classified as positive if at least one of the samples, regardless of the technique, yielded a positive result in the PCR, and farms were considered positive if at least one pen was classified as positive. Overall, genes stx2e and fedA were found simultaneously in 24.9% (95% CI 22.1–29.1%) of sampled pens and in 37.4% (95% CI 27.9–47.7%) of sampled farms. Regardless of the presence of F18-fimbriae, Escherichia coli encoding for Stx2e (STEC-2e) were found in 35.1% (95% CI 31.0–39.1%) of the pens and 53.5% (95% CI 44.4–63.6%) of the farms sampled. Conclusions Escherichia coli strains considered capable to cause oedema disease in swine (EDEC) are highly prevalent in the surveyed pig producing farms in Germany. Due to intermittent shedding of EDEC and a potentially low within-farm prevalence, we recommend a combination of different sampling techniques for EDEC monitoring at pen and farm levels. Further studies are needed to understand which STEC-2e strains really pose the risk of causing severe porcine disease.

description: As a significant variable related to individual differences, gender affects people’s attitudes and perceptions. The main concern of this study is to investigate the importance of gender in the architectural design process. To this end, it measures architectural perception using neuroscientific measurement tools such as fMRI and objectively examines how the brains of men and women respond to the built environment. A survey experiment was conducted to determine differences between the measurement of spatial features in men and women. The fMRI results showed a significant gender difference between the neural activation of the brain areas involved in architectural perception. In support of the brain imaging results, the survey experiment indicated that women perceive an architectural setting and its visual elements in greater detail than men. In contrast, men rate three-dimensional perception and mental visualization significantly better and pay more attention to it than women.

description: Holographic quantum-error correcting codes are models of bulk/boundary dualities such as the anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory (AdS/CFT) correspondence, where a higher-dimensional bulk geometry is associated with the code’s logical degrees of freedom. Previous discrete holographic codes based on tensor networks have reproduced the general code properties expected from continuum AdS/CFT, such as complementary recovery. However, the boundary states of such tensor networks typically do not exhibit the expected correlation functions of CFT boundary states. In this work, we show that a new class of exact holographic codes, extending the previously proposed hyperinvariant tensor networks into quantum codes, produce the correct boundary correlation functions. This approach yields a dictionary between logical states in the bulk and the critical renormalization group flow of boundary states. Furthermore, these codes exhibit a state-dependent breakdown of complementary recovery as expected from AdS/CFT under small quantum gravity corrections.

description: This study talks about the use of Nanite in Unreal Engine 5.3 in a VR environment and evaluates its impact on scene performance and image quality. Through experimental studies, it was found that Nanite significantly reduced the number of triangles and draw calls for complex scenes. However, Nanite may have caused FPS drops and excessive GPU load, limiting its application areas. Additionally, as a prior condition for Nanite, disabling forward shading reduces performance even though it has positive impacts on graphic quality. The results show that Nanite may have potential in VR environments but requires further optimization to improve its performance. Future research should focus on new optimization methods and expand the use of Nanite in different fields while hardware technology improves.

description: The De Ritis ratio (=aspartate transaminase/alanine transaminase) has shown prognostic value in different cancer types. This is the first such analysis in prostate cancer patients undergoing radioligand therapy (RLT) with [Lu-177]Lu-PSMA-617. This retrospective monocentric analysis included 91 patients with a median of 3 RLT cycles (range 1-6) and median cumulative activity of 17.3 GBq. Univariable Cox regression regarding overall survival (OS) included age, different types of previous treatment, metastatic patterns and different laboratory parameters before RLT. Based on multivariable Cox regression, a prognostic score was derived. Seventy-two patients (79%) died (median follow-up in survivors: 19.8 months). A higher number of previous chemotherapy lines, the presence of liver metastases, brain metastases, a higher tumor load on PSMA-PET, a higher prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, lower red blood cell count, lower hemoglobin, higher neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and higher De Ritis ratio were associated with shorter OS (each p < 0.05). In multivariable Cox, a higher number of chemotherapy lines (range, 0-2; p = 0.036), brain metastases (p < 0.001), higher PSA (p = 0.004) and higher De Ritis ratio before RLT (hazard ratio, 1.27 per unit increase; p = 0.023) remained significant. This prognostic score separated five groups with a significantly different median OS ranging from 4.9 to 28.1 months (log-rank test, p < 0.001). If validated independently, the De Ritis ratio could enhance multifactorial models for OS after RLT.

description: Im Rahmen ihrer Jahresabschlüsse müssen viele Unternehmen in Deutschland nicht nur über ihre finanziellen Kennzahlen berichten. Seit einigen Jahren verlangt der Gesetzgeber vermehrt auch Auskünfte zu nichtfinanziellen Aspekten wie der Beteiligung von Frauen an Führungspositionen. Dieser zweite Teil des DIW Managerinnen-Barometers 2023 zeigt auf Basis einer quantitativen Textanalyse von Unternehmensberichten, dass die großen börsennotierten Konzerne in Deutschland die Vorgaben sehr unterschiedlich umsetzen. Zwar hat die Berichterstattung über Frauen und Führungspositionen entsprechend der Vorgaben im Untersuchungszeitraum von 2009 bis 2020 insgesamt stark zugenommen. Allerdings treten auch deutliche Unterschiede in der Themenschwerpunktsetzung zu Tage: So findet sich eine gleichstellungsorientierte Gruppe von Unternehmen, die umfangreich über konkrete Maßnahmen zur Erhöhung des Frauenanteils in Führungspositionen berichtet. Diese Gruppe weist eine deutlich höhere Beteiligung von Frauen im Aufsichtsrat auf als Unternehmen, die eher complianceorientiert berichten und in erster Linie daran interessiert scheinen, die gesetzlichen Vorgaben zu erfüllen. Die Berichterstattung der Unternehmen zu Frauen und Führungspositionen ist also ein Indikator und damit nützliches Signal nach außen, wie ernst es Unternehmen mit der Gleichstellung ist.

description: Many companies in Germany must provide information beyond financial figures in their annual reports. For some years now, legislators have increasingly required information on non-financial aspects, such as the shares of women in leadership positions. Using a quantitative text analysis of annual reports, this second report in the 2023 DIW Berlin Women Executives Barometer shows that the major publicly listed corporations in Germany implement the reporting requirements very differently. Reporting about women and leadership positions increased overall between 2009 and 2020 in line with the requirements. However, there were clear differences in the companies’ focus: There is an equality-oriented group of companies that reports extensively about concrete measures to increase the share of women in leadership positions. This group has significantly more women on their supervisory boards than the other group, compliance-oriented companies, which seem to be mainly concerned with fulfilling the legal requirements. Companies’ reporting on women and leadership positions is thus an indicator and useful signal to outside stakeholders of how serious companies are about gender equality.

description: The upward trend in women’s representation on executive and supervisory boards of major companies in Germany continued in 2022, although the overall momentum has slowed yet again. Growth on executive boards in particular has slowed, as the most recent DIW Berlin Women Executives Barometer shows: Following a significant increase at the 200 largest companies from 2020 to 2021, there was only a one-percentage-point increase to just under 16 percent in the share of women on executive boards in 2022. The greatest increases were in the DAX-40 companies, where there was a share of women on executive boards of over 20 percent for the first time, and companies with government-owned shares, where the share reached 30 percent for the first time. A similar development can be seen in supervisory boards, albeit on a higher level. This development suggests that the companies subject to the inclusion requirement for executive boards, which has been in effect since 2021, implemented it quickly, but have since slowed their efforts. With the Equal Participation of Men and Women in Leadership Positions Act and its successor, policymakers have recently significantly improved the conditions for more women in top bodies. Now companies must do the work, as gender parity remains a distant prospect in many places. Most importantly, companies should make efforts to create an inclusive work culture.
