description: Diesem hat er in seinem letzten Brief tatsächlich Hermann an seiner statt empfohlen, aber keine Antwort erhalten.
description: Joh. B. hat Burnets undatierten Brief während der Hochzeitsfeier seiner Schwägerin, an der auch Werenfels teilnahm, erhalten. Er freut sich, dass Burnet von Italien über Deutschland glücklich in Den Haag angekommen ist. Craig scheint sich um seine Pflicht, Joh. B. öffentlich Satisfaktion zu geben, drücken zu wollen. Der angeblich verlorene Brief ist wahrscheinlich nie geschrieben worden. Joh. B. kennt aber Mittel, Craig zu zwingen, das zu tun, dessen er sich weigert. Was die Berufung nach Leiden betrifft, so hat Joh. B. Noodt keine Absage erteilt, sondern nur um ein besseres Angebot gebeten. Noodt hat aber nicht geantwortet. Als Gegengründe zu Burnets Argumenten für die Annahme des Rufes nach Leiden nennt Joh. B. seine Familie, nämlich seine Frau und vier Kinder, sowie den Bau eines Hauses, der ihn sehr viel Geld gekostet hat. Bei dessen Verkauf würde er einige Tausend Francs verlieren. Sein verstorbener Vater hat ihm soviel vererbt, dass er sein Brot nicht anderswo verdienen muss. Er besitzt Obligationen, Renten, Mobilien und Immobilien. Ausserdem wollen die Schwiegereltern ihre Tochter nicht nach auswärts geben. Wenn sie in seiner Abwesenheit sterben, kann er sich nicht um das Erbe kümmern. Und wenn er in der Fremde stirbt, was wird dann aus seiner Frau und den Kindern? In Utrecht hat man ihm im Falle seines Todes wenigstens eine Pension für seine Frau versprochen. Wenn er ohne Familie nach Holland reist, garantiert ihm niemand, dass sein Basler Lehrstuhl für ihn reserviert bleibt. Wenn man de Volder nicht mehr bezahlt hat, dann weil dieser keine Frau und keine Kinder hatte. Wenn Burnet ihm allerdings wirklich 1000 Pfund Sterling pro Jahr anbieten könnte, würde er die Berufung sofort annehmen, auch wenn man ihm keine Versorgung für seine Frau nach seinem Tod garantierte. Burnet möge aber über dies alles schweigen. Joh. B. bestellt Grüsse an Obdam und Noodt.

description: Misuse and overconsumption of certain consumer products have become major global risk factors for premature deaths, with their total costs in trillions of dollars. Progress in reducing such deaths has been slow and difficult. To address this challenge, this review introduces the definition of market-driven epidemics (MDEs), which arise when companies aggressively market products with proven harms, deny these harms, and resist mitigation efforts. MDEs are a specific within the broader landscape of commercial determinants of health. We selected three illustrative MDE products reflecting different consumer experiences: cigarettes (nicotine delivery product), sugar (food product), and prescription opioids (medical product). Each met the MDE case definition with proven adverse health impacts, well-documented histories, longitudinal product consumption and health impact data, and sustained reduction in product consumption. Based on these epidemics, we describe five MDE phases: market expansion, evidence of harm, corporate resistance, mitigation, and market adaptation. From the peak of consumption to the most recent data, U.S. cigarette sales fell by 82%, sugar consumption by 15%, and prescription opioid prescriptions by 62%. For each, the consumption tipping point occurred when compelling evidence of harm, professional alarm, and an authoritative public health voice and/or public mobilization overcame corporate marketing and resistance efforts. The gap between suspicion of harm and the consumption tipping point ranged from one to five decades–much of which was attributable to the time required to generate sufficient evidence of harm. Market adaptation to the reduced consumption of target products had both negative and positive impacts. To our knowledge, this is the first comparative analysis of three successful efforts to change the product consumption patterns and the associated adverse health impacts of these products. The MDE epidemiological approach of shortening the latent time to effective mitigation provides a new method to reduce the impacts of harmful products.
Peanut butter, phones, and photos: The (re)creation of home and identity abroad
Creators: name: Shakespeare, Rebecca
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 440107
subject: Social and cultural anthropology

description: Despite many psychological studies of travelers' cross-cultural adaptation and ethnographies of diasporic enclaves, there are few descriptive accounts of sojourner 'home' creation abroad. Looking specifically at the student sojourner (study abroad) experience, this project will explore how students enact and understand their home culture identity while they are abroad for a specific length of time. Through unstructured interviews with student sojourners and sojourner responses to an open-ended, online questionnaire, two separate and divergent concepts of home emerged: home as a place of origin, and home as a sense of comfort and familiarity. Sojourners use both to add depth to stereotypes of their home culture and to create a sense of home around them. Through their ritual enactments of home while abroad, such as the American student peanut butter pilgrimage, they reinforce their membership in their home culture and their home culture becomes salient in their experience of their identity.

title: Zahlungsverkehr Regulierung in Europa
Creators: name: Seniv, Taras
Year: 2015

description: Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Beschreibung der Zahlungsverkehr-Regulierung in Europa. Es werden die Gründe und Arten der Regulierung auf der europäischen Ebene untersucht, inklusive den Bereichen des Zahlungsverkehrs, die sie beeinflussen. In den ersten Kapiteln, die theoretischer Natur sind, erfolgt die Beschreibung des Zahlungsverkehrs und seiner Bestandteile und wie diese auf der europäischen Ebene reguliert werden. Im zweiten Teil der Arbeit wird SEPA, als ein aus der Regulierung stammendes Projekt, und dessen Umsetzung in Österreich untersucht. Primär werden im empirischen Teil der Arbeit die Auswirkungen von SEPA auf die Akteure (Kreditinstitute, Privat- und Geschäftskunden) des Zahlungsverkehrs in Österreich analysiert. Als ein Exkurs zum Thema Zahlungsverkehr wird im Rahmen dieser Forschungsarbeit das Unterthema „Schecks“ untersucht und deren Rolle im bargeldlosem Zahlungsverkehr. Um die empirischen Funde dieser Arbeit zu unterstützen, wurde eine Umfrage unter 200 Teilnehmern, sowie Interviews mit Fachexperten durchgeführt.
description: This Master Thesis has its focus on the topic of payments regulation in Europe. Firstly, all kinds and reasons of regulation are being distinguished in accordance with the European payments landscape, which also include the effects on the whole payments branch. The first chapters describe the payments landscape in Europe and its components theoretically and how those are being regulated in Europe. In the second more empirical part, SEPA as a Pan-European project is being described with the emphasis on the SEPA implementation in Austria. The primary emphasis is on finding the impact of SEPA on participants of payments landscape in Europe and Austria. In terms of excursion, a special topic is being examined, namely the „Check“ and its role in the payments landscapes all over the world. In support of the empirical part of this thesis an online survey with over 200 participants and interviews with payments professionals were held.
Examining modification of the associations between air pollution and birth outcomes by neighborhood deprivation in a North Carolina birth cohort, 2011–2015

description: Background: Evidence from studies of air pollutants and birth outcomes suggests an association, but uncertainties around geographical variability and modifying factors still remain. As neighborhood-level social characteristics are associated with birth outcomes, we assess whether neighborhood deprivation level is an effect measure modifier on the association between air pollution and birth outcomes in a North Carolina birth cohort. Methods: Using birth certificate data, all North Carolina residential singleton live births from 1 January 2011 to 31 December 2015 with gestational ages of 20–44 weeks (n = 566,799) were examined for birth defect diagnoses and preterm birth. Exposures were daily average fine particulate matter (PM2.5), daily 8-h maximum nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and daily 8-h maximum ozone (O3) modeled concentrations, and the modifier of interest was the neighborhood deprivation index (NDI). Linear binomial models were used to estimate the prevalence differences and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the association between ambient air pollution and birth defect diagnoses. Modified Poisson regression models were used to estimate risk differences (RDs) and 95% CIs for air pollution and preterm birth. Models were stratified by the neighborhood deprivation index group (low, medium, or high) to assess potential modification by NDI. Results: Approximately 3.1% of the study population had at least one birth defect and 8.18% were born preterm. For preterm birth, associations with PM2.5 and O3 did not follow a conclusive pattern and there was no evidence of modification by NDI. The associations between NO2 and preterm birth were generally negative across exposure windows except for a positive association with NO2 and preterm birth for high NDI [RD: 34.70 (95% CI 4.84–64.56)] for entire pregnancy exposure. There was no evidence of associations between pollutants examined and birth defects. Conclusions: There may be differences in the association between NO2 exposure and preterm birth by NDI but we did not observe any evidence of associations for birth defects. Our results support the public health protection afforded by reductions in air pollution, even in areas of neighborhood deprivation, but future research conducted in areas with higher levels of air pollution and evaluating the potential for modification by neighborhood deprivation level would be informative.

Erstens könne man zwecks Mittelerhöhung an die Kuratoren gelangen, zweitens könne man hoffen, dass ein Professor der Jurisprudenz, der Medizin oder der Theologie sterbe, so dass man dort etwas zugunsten von Joh. B.s Berufung abzwacken könne. Burnet möge Joh. B. mitteilen, dass man an eine Erhöhung des Angebots auf 2200 holl. Silbergulden denke. Joh. B. möge seine Briefe besser an Obdam statt an Noodt richten. Er wohnt in Den Haag bei 'sGravesande.

description: Soluble angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) can act as a decoy molecule that neutralizes severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) by blocking spike (S) proteins on virions from binding ACE2 on host cells. Based on structural insights of ACE2 and S proteins, we designed a “muco-trapping” ACE2-Fc conjugate, termed ACE2-(G4S)6-Fc, comprised of the extracellular segment of ACE2 (lacking the C-terminal collectrin domain) that is linked to mucin-binding IgG1-Fc via an extended glycine-serine flexible linker. ACE2-(G4S)6-Fc exhibits substantially greater binding affinity and neutralization potency than conventional full length ACE2-Fc decoys or similar truncated ACE2-Fc decoys without flexible linkers, possessing picomolar binding affinity and strong neutralization potency against pseudovirus and live virus. ACE2-(G4S)6-Fc effectively trapped fluorescent SARS-CoV-2 virus like particles in fresh human airway mucus and was stably nebulized using a commercial vibrating mesh nebulizer. Intranasal dosing of ACE2-(G4S)6-Fc in hamsters as late as 2 days postinfection provided a 10-fold reduction in viral load in the nasal turbinate tissues by Day 4. These results strongly support further development of ACE2-(G4S)6-Fc as an inhaled immunotherapy for COVID-19, as well as other emerging viruses that bind ACE2 for cellular entry.

description: The most influential time in a child's life is those few years in middle school, the ages between 11 and 14. Not only are these children going through massive physical changes, but they are also going through even greater mental and psychological adjustments as they learn how to be a member of a group while developing their own individuality. These young adolescents, who want respect, power, and love, also need new ways to handle their changing emotions and disputes with peers, teachers, and parents. In the aftermath of extremely public incidents of school violence such as the shootings at Columbine High School in Colorado and terror events of September 11th, the need for Conflict Resolution Education has increased exponentially in today's world. My research focuses on: the substantive need for comprehensive Conflict Resolution curriculum and developing a Conflict Resolution course for middle schoolers. These objectives shall be reached through the analysis of current Conflict Resolution Education programs and implementation of a Conflict Resolution course by the author in a local Washington, D.C. middle school.

Dieser versichert, dass er Joh. B. alle Genugtuung geben wird. Er sei aber bisher noch nicht genügend über dessen Methode informiert, um gemäss dieser die Gleichung der der Ellipse längengleichen Kurve deduzieren zu können. Er bittet Joh. B. um die Darlegung dieser Operation. Burnet fühlt sich ausser Stande, dies an Joh. B.s Stelle zu tun. Craig zweifelt nicht, dass Joh. B. ihm eine ganze Liste längengleicher Kurven vorlegen kann. Um ihn aber zu überzeugen, dass dies nach der Methode des motus reptorius geht, möge Joh. B. ihm diese Methode am Beispiel der Ellipse darlegen. Burnet hofft auf Joh. B.s Bereitschaft, da er an der Harmonie zwischen ihm und Craig interessiert ist. Burnet wird bald nach England reisen. Adresse ist nach wie vor 'sGravesande, Advokat in den Haag.

description: The role of stressors, insect bites, and infections on disease relapse of ANCAvasculitis has yet to be entirely explored, with limited retrospective studies focused on disease onset from small participant cohorts. Our study analyzes longitudinal survey data from 2011–2022 to evaluate this perspective from a large ANCA vasculitis cohort. We collected surveys every three to six months to obtain information on self-reported psychological stressors and significant life events, insect bites, and infections throughout clinical disease. We defined cohorts as those who relapsed (Relapse Cohort) and controls as those who did not relapse (Remission Cohort) during the study period. Survey responses were retrospectively reviewed during a 15-month timeframe prior to relapse or during 15 months of remission and categorized by type of stress event, insect bite, and infections at every available 3-month interval. There were no significant differences in stress and insect bites between the relapse and remission cohorts. Patients who relapsed reported more frequent upper respiratory infections and other infections, such as those affecting the skin and eyes, but therewere no significant differences in the incidence of pulmonary or urinary infections compared to the remission cohort. There was a significant difference in reported upper respiratory infections 9 to 15 months prior to the relapse date, indicating a remote history of infections as a potentially significant physical stressor that may contribute to disease relapse. More frequent patient-reported infections, specifically upper respiratory infections, may contribute to patient vulnerability to relapse. Counseling and close monitoring of patients after infectious symptoms could aid inearlierdetectionof diseaseflares. Future studies are essential to further understand the importance of distal risk factors and how they impact relapse.

description: Die vorliegende Masterarbeit setzt sich mit den Phänomenen Manipulation, Ideologie und Macht beim Übersetzen auseinander. Das Ziel der Arbeit ist, auf diese Themen aufmerksam zu machen und zu zeigen, wie das untersuchte Werk manipuliert wurde. Des Weiteren ist ein Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit, ein Bewusstsein dafür zu schaffen, dass das Feld Übersetzen besonders anfällig für die Phänomene: Manipulation, Macht und Ideologie ist. Um das zu erreichen, werden zunächst die Entwicklung der Disziplin Translationswissenschaft und die Ansätze, die sich im Laufe der Jahre herausbildeten, beleuchtet und welche Auswirkungen jene auf die Tätigkeit Übersetzen haben. Da Übersetzen in ein Machtspannungsfeld eingebettet ist, werden die Aspekte des Machtgefälles beim Übersetzen ebenso erläutert. Weiters werden die Begriffe Manipulation, Manipulation beim Übersetzen und Manipulationsformen dargestellt und es wird ein Versuch unternommen sie zu differenzieren und auseinander zu halten. Außerdem werden im weiteren Teil der Arbeit Zwänge aufgezeigt, denen ÜbersetzerInnen unterliegen (können). Im praktischen wird das untersuchte Werk vorgestellt und es wird an konkreten Beispielen gezeigt, welche der angeführten Manipulationsformen im untersuchten Werk angewandt wurden. Ferner wird ein Versuch unternommen eine Erklärung für die stattgefundene Manipulation zu finden.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Untersuchung der CSR-Kommunikation in der österreichischen Automobilbranche. Nach einer theoretischen Einleitung in das Thema CSR und Nachhaltigkeit wird die empirische Untersuchung mit Hilfe der qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse durchgeführt. Untersucht werden die vier österreichische Automobilhersteller BMW, Opel, Audi und Mercedes-Benz zum Thema Nachhaltigkeit. Das Forschungsinteresse liegt in der Feststellung von umgesetzten Maßnahmen, durch welche CSR und Nachhaltigkeit sowohl nach außen als auch nach innen kommuniziert werden. Hauptsächlich drei Bereiche der Nachhaltigkeit – sozial, ökologisch und ökonomisch – werden untersucht. Ziel ist es auch festzustellen, ob diese CSR Maßnahmen im Einklang mit der Unternehmensstrategie umgesetzt werden und ob Informationen, die das Thema Nachhaltigkeit zum Inhalt haben der Öffentlichkeit zugänglich gemacht werden. Aus der Untersuchung resultiert, die Nachhaltigkeit in der österreichischen Automobilbranche eine wichtige Rolle spielt und ist ein fester Bestandteil der Unternehmensstrategie, was sich auf allen Unternehmensebenen sowie auch in allen drei Bereichen der Nachhaltigkeit widerspiegelt – im sozialen, ökologischen sowie dem ökonomischen Bereich.
description: The primary research interest of this master thesis is the CSR communication in the Austrian automotive industry. The first part of this thesis includes a theoretical introduction with focus on Corporate Social Responsibility. The empirical study is based on the research of four automotive producer in Austria - BMW, Opel, Audi und Mercedes-Benz - and their CSR strategies. It is carried out by a qualitative content analysis. The main research question is: What measures are taken to communicate the Corporate Social Responsibility strategy outside and inside the company? Three dimensions had to been researched – social, ecological and financial. Another aim is also to determine, if the CSR strategies are integrated into the corporate strategy and if the information about CSR is easily available to the public. The analysis shows that Corporate Social Responsibility has become a very important issue for the Austrian automotive industry and also an integral part of the corporate strategy.

description: Evidence suggests that bi-annual mass drug administration (MDA) of single-dose azithromycin to 1–11 month-old children reduces child mortality in high child-mortality settings. Several countries conduct annual MDAs to distribute azithromycin to individuals ages 6 months and older to prevent trachoma infection. This study examined the feasibility and acceptability of reaching 1–11 months-old children during a trachoma MDA in Côte d’Ivoire by extending azithromycin distribution to infants 1–5 months old during the campaign. In November 2020, the study piloted single-dose azithromycin for 1–5 month-olds during a trachoma MDA in one health district. Monitoring data included the number of children reached and occurrences of adverse drug reactions. Feasibility, the extent to which the target population received the intervention (coverage), was assessed through a population-based, household survey with parents/caregivers of eligible children conducted after the MDA. Acceptability was explored through in-depth interviews (IDIs) with parents/caregivers of eligible children, focus group discussions (FGDs) with community drug distributors (CDDs), and IDIs with their supervisors. CDD FGDs and supervisor IDIs also documented implementation challenges and recommendations for scale-up. 1,735 1–5 month-olds received azithromycin during the pilot activity (estimated population coverage of 90.2%). Adverse drug reactions were reported for 1% (n = 18) infants; all were mild and self-limited. The post-MDA coverage survey interviewed 267 parents/caregivers; survey-based intervention coverage was 95.4% of 1–5 month-olds. Qualitative data revealed high intervention acceptability among parents, CDDs, and supervisors. Implementation challenges included the need to weigh babies to calculate dosage for 1–5 month-olds and the need to obtain written informed consent from parents to provide the drug to 1–5 month-olds. CDDs also indicated the need for more information on azithromycin and possible side effects during training. Delivering azithromycin to younger infants appears acceptable to parents and implementers; >90% coverage indicates feasibility to integrate into a trachoma MDA.

description: Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States, with more than one million cases diagnosed annually. Inflammation is believed to be a critical component to skin cancer progression, and therefore understanding genes that control inflammation is highly desirable. MAP3K8 (Tpl2) is a protein kinase in the MAPK signal transduction cascade. It has previously been shown that mice that lack MAP3K8 (Tpl2 -/- mice) have significantly higher tumor incidence and inflammation than wild-type (WT) controls. My thesis investigated the mechanism behind these effects by using inhibitors specific to the p38, JNK, PKC, and NF-kappaB pathways. Western blot analysis revealed differences in p38, JNK and NF-kappaB pathway activity between the WT and Tpl2 -/- mouse primary keratinocytes. In vivo experiments confirmed these differences and illustrated that the NF-kappaB pathway is the primary pathway responsible for the increased incidence of inflammation and tumorigenesis observed in Tpl2 -/- mice.

description: Bulky DNA adducts such as those induced by ultraviolet light are removed from the genomes of multicellular organisms by nucleotide excision repair, which occurs through two distinct mechanisms, global repair, requiring the DNA damage recognition-factor XPC (xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group C), and transcription-coupled repair (TCR), which does not. TCR is initiated when elongating RNA polymerase II encounters DNA damage, and thus analysis of genome-wide excision repair in XPC-mutants only repairing by TCR provides a unique opportunity to map transcription events missed by methods dependent on capturing RNA transcription products and thus limited by their stability and/or modifications (5’-capping or 3’-polyadenylation). Here, we have performed eXcision Repair-sequencing (XR-seq) in the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans to generate genome-wide repair maps in a wild-type strain with normal excision repair, a strain lacking TCR (csb-1), and a strain that only repairs by TCR (xpc-1). Analysis of the intersections between the xpc-1 XR-seq repair maps with RNA-mapping datasets (RNA-seq, long- and short-capped RNA-seq) reveal previously unrecognized sites of transcription and further enhance our understanding of the genome of thtableis important model organism.

description: Joh. B. hofft, dass die vorliegende Antwort auf Burnets Brief von 1710 07 08 diesen noch in Holland erreicht. Joh. B. hat nämlich vor kurzem einen Brief von Noodt erhalten, in dem dieser ihm mitteilt, dass die Berufungsverhandlungen nach seiner ersten Absage nicht mehr fortgeführt würden. Man habe den Holländern einen in Amerika weilenden Schotten namens Keill empfohlen, der die Stelle auch bei geringem Lohn annehmen würde. Joh. B. kennt von Keill nur ein kleines Büchlein zur Physik, das voll von Stücken nach Newton und auch nach denen von Newtons kontinentaler Gegenpartei ist, ohne dass Keill die Autoren nennt [Eventuell J. Keill, Introductio ad veram physicam, Oxonii 1705]. Joh. B. weiss nun nicht, was er Noodt antworten soll. Er wird ihm wohl Obdams Äusserungen gegenüber Burnet besser nicht mitteilen. Craigs Bitte, ihm den motus reptorius im Fall der Ellipse zu erläutern, ist ein blosser Vorwand, um sich um eine öffentliche Entschuldigung zu drücken. Die Methode ist in den AE deutlich erklärt und der analytische Ausdruck für die neue Kurve folgt so natürlich, dass es einem guten Mathematiker wie Craig kaum schwer fallen dürfte, diesen herzuleiten. Um alle Zweifel zu zerstreuen, will aber Joh. B. dies hier noch einmal auch um Burnets willen tun. [Es folgt eine ausführliche Herleitung der Gleichung der transformierten Kurve, welche gleiche Bogenlänge wie die Ellipse hat.] Joh. B. dankt für die Absicht, ihm 'sGravesandes Schrift über die Perspektive zu senden.

description: Burnet hat gerade Joh. B.s Brief erhalten. Er hat in einem Brief Joh. B.s Meinung in der Berufungsangelegenheit an Obdam weitergeleitet und diesen gebeten, dem Überbringer 'sGravesande seine Antwort an Joh. B. zu übergeben. Craig wird nächste Woche Burnet besuchen und dann Joh. B.s Analyse lesen können. Burnet wird Joh. B. sofort mitteilen, was Craig dazu gesagt hat. Keill gilt als guter Philosoph. Man möchte ihn aber nicht nach Leiden gehen lassen, einerseits wegen seines Lebenswandels und andererseits, weil er als Libertin gilt. Burnet will den Rest des Briefes 'sGravesand überlassen. Dieser meint, dass man Keill nur als Vorwand benutzt habe, um Joh. B. erneut zu berufen. Obdam hat über seine Pläne noch mit niemand gesprochen. Wenn man Noodt dessen Pläne mitteilte, könnte dies Intrigen auslösen. So kann Joh. B. Noodt lediglich seine Ablehnung der ersten Bedingungen bestätigen.

description: This study examines HIV/AIDS-associated knowledge and attitudes towards treating disadvantaged communities among predoctoral dental students in U.S. dental schools who have not yet commenced their Community-Based Dental Education (CBDE) training. It also compares the difference in the knowledge and attitudes between students with reported community engagement with PLWHA and those without. Our study comprised 89 predoctoral dental students within their D1–D3 years of dental school who had not yet initiated their Community-Based Dental Education (referred to as pre-CBDE dental students). Their responses were collected via an online survey. The participants were 68% females, 94% heterosexual, and with a mean age (years) of 25.9 ± 3.5 SD. The majority (62%) were in their first (D1) and second (D2) years of dental education. Of the thirty knowledge questions, only five received a minimum of 90% correct responses. Similarly, we found no statistical differences in most of the knowledge/attitude sections between those with and without prior PLWHA exposure. Encouragingly, 90% of our participants reported prior experience working with disadvantaged communities. Early community engagement fosters a sense of professional responsibility towards administering dental care to disadvantaged communities and we propose that it must be encouraged among aspiring dental school students.
title: Kinosterben und Festival-Boom
Creators: name: Valent, Alexandra
Year: 2015

description: Die vor allem in den Medien verwendeten Begriffe Kinosterben und Festival-Boom stellen zwei wesentliche Entwicklungen dar, die in den vergangenen zehn Jahren an Intensität gewonnen haben. Bisher kaum miteinander in Beziehung gesetzt, sind sie Ausdruck und Ergebnis eines Wandels der Auswertung und Wahrnehmung von Film. Während die Lichtspielhäuser seit Jahrzehnten im Verschwinden begriffen sind, erfreut sich das Filmfestival als Kulturveranstaltung großer Beliebtheit und globaler Ausbreitung. Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der gegenläufigen und doch eng verschränkten Geschichte dieser beiden Phänomene und legt den Fokus dabei auf Wien. Filmfestivals stellen wie Kinos einen unverzichtbaren Teil der Filmkultur dar und befinden sich zumeist in einem produktiven Abhängigkeitsverhältnis zueinander. Ausgehend von der Entstehungsgeschichte beider Institutionen in Wien werden anhand verschiedener film- und kulturtheoretischer, philosophischer und praktischer Betrachtungsmethoden die Gründe für die jeweilige Entwicklung untersucht und anhand von Zahlen und Fakten auf ihre Relevanz überprüft. Dabei werden Überlegungen u.a. zum Kino als gebautem Raum und Wirtschaftsfaktor, zum veränderten Freizeitverhalten und Umbrüchen in der Verwertung, zur Faszination für Events und zum Festival als Marke formuliert. Das Kino ist eine Konstante der Filmgeschichte und hat sich durch zahlreiche alternative Möglichkeiten des Filmkonsums von Fernsehen, Internet und digitalen Datenträgern zu einem von vielen Orten der Filmwahrnehmung entwickelt. Die Gegenüberstellung von Kinosterben und Festival-Boom folgt der These, dass der Erlebnischarakter des Kinobesuchs durch bestimmte Inszenierungen und die Schaffung diskursiver und sozialer Räume im Rahmen eines Festivals dem Kino zurück zu geben vermag, was es durch die Konkurrenz alternativer Präsentationsformen verloren hat.

description: Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection has been associated with severe neurological consequences, including stroke or seizures, and less severe neurological sequelae, including headaches, dizziness, and anosmia. Earlier COVID-19 variants were associated with high morbidity and mortality; however, knowledge of the impact of neurological conditions in the setting of COVID-19 on healthcare outcomes is limited. We sought to determine the impact of acute neurological conditions and acute COVID-19 infection on inpatient hospitalization outcomes. Methods: This was a retrospective, observational study of adult patients who were admitted to a large academic medical center in the Southeastern US between April 2020 and December 2021 with acute COVID-19 infection and a neurological diagnosis. Patient demographics, medical history, neurological diagnoses, and hospitalization outcomes were obtained from the medical record. Descriptive statistics and unadjusted and adjusted logistic regression analyses were performed. Results: Of the 1,387 patients included in this study, 27% died and 23% were kept under ventilation during hospitalization. The mean +/− standard deviation (SD) age was 64.6+/−16.9 years, with 52.8% women and 30.1% identifying as Black/African American. The most common neurological conditions included ischemic stroke (35.0%), movement disorder (12.0%), and hemorrhagic stroke (10.7%). In-hospital death was most common among those with epilepsy (p = 0.024), headache (p = 0.026), and dementia (p < 0.0001) compared to individuals without those conditions. Ventilation support was given more commonly to dementia patients (p = 0.020). Age was a significant risk factor for death (p < 0.001) and hospital length of stay (LOS) for ventilation (p < 0.001), but no neurological condition was a significant factor in adjusted logistic regression analyses. Discussion: Mortality was high in this study, with more than one-quarter of patients dying in the hospital. Death was the most common among those with epilepsy, headache, or dementia, but no neurological condition increased the risk of in-hospital mortality or ventilation. Future studies would determine the long-term neurological sequelae of those discharged from the hospital with COVID-19 and a neurological condition.
