description: Previously, it was assumed that somatic cells in male and female individuals had the same molecular pathways of ontogenesis. However, it has been shown that the course of various pathologies is associated with, among other things, genetic sexual dimorphism. It is known that glial cells are associated with the pathogenesis of various diseases, while the effect of sex chromosomes in glial cells has not been studied to date.

description: In 1926, Erwin Schrodinger wrote a series of papers that invented wave mechanics and set the foundation for much of the single-particle quantum mechanics that we teach today. In his first paper, he solved the Schrodinger equation using the Laplace method, which is a technique that is quite powerful, but rarely taught. This is unfortunate, because it opens the door to examining quantum mechanics from a complex-analysis perspective. Gaining this experience with complex analysis is a useful notion to consider when teaching quantum mechanics, as these techniques can be widely used outside of quantum mechanics, unlike the standard Frobenius summation method, which is normally taught, but rarely used elsewhere. The Laplace method strategy is subtle and no one has carefully gone through the arguments that Schrodinger did in this first paper, instead it is often just stated that the solution was adopted from Schlesinger's famous differential equation textbook. In this work, we show how the Laplace method can be used to solve for the quantum-mechanical energy eigenfunctions of the hydrogen atom, following Schrodinger's original solution, with all the necessary details, and illustrate how it can be taught in advanced instruction; it does require familiarity with intermediate-level complex analysis, which we also briefly review.

description: Background: acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized as an aggressive blood cancer with rapid growth of immature leukemic cells. It appears that each subtype of AML displays a distinct miRNA profile. miRNAs play a role in regulating gene expression that is implicated in AML pathogenesis. This study was designed to assess the level of miRNA-155 gene expression in relation to chemotherapy resistance in various AML patient groups, with the hope of developing a novel marker for targeted therapy and early diagnosis and prognosis of cancer stem cells in AML patient. Methods: 120 AML cases were studied. Based on chemotherapy stage, 40 patients were assigned to each group (newly diagnosed, under treatment, and relapsed). Baghdad Teaching Hospital (Iraq) provided the cases and samples from February 2022 to April 2023. This study also included 40 healthy controls. The qRT-PCR method, which uses the ∆Ct-value and fold change (2-∆∆Ct), was used to count the genes after they were standardized to the level of a housekeeping gene (U6). Results: in this study, significantly elevated levels of miRNA-155 were observed in AML patients compared to controls, with a higher fold change detected in the newly diagnosed group. Conclusions: upregulation of miRNA-155 is suggested to be linked to AML development and is strongly associated with the progression of leukemic stem cells. These results might serve as accurate predictors of AML and potential therapeutic targets for the elimination of LSCs.

description: Die Autoren dieser Bachelorarbeit begegnen in ihrem Berufsalltag häufig diskussionsbedürftigen Aussagen in Bezug auf Geschlecht, insbesondere hinsichtlich Männlichkeit. Vorliegende Bachelorarbeit versucht diesbezüglich zentrale Fragen zu klären und somit die Profession der Sozialen Arbeit zu bereichern. Dafür werden zuerst grundlegende Geschlechtertheorien beleuchtet. Es zeigt sich, dass Geschlecht ein Konstrukt der Gesellschaft ist, welches der ständigen Reproduktion unterliegt. So entstehen durch Geschlecht Machtpositionen und Kategorisierungen, welche die Menschen prägen und zu sozialen Ungleichheiten führen. Der Bezug zur Ethik Sozialer Arbeit und zu rechtlichen Grundlagen weist auf einen Handlungsbedarf für die Soziale Arbeit hin. Dafür wird die Jungenarbeit als Feld der Sozialen Arbeit und damit die Zielgruppe der Jungen näher betrachtet. Es werden Handlungsempfehlungen aufgezeigt, um den erkannten Handlungsbedarf mit der Jungenarbeit zu decken. Konkret werden Professionellen der Jungenarbeit anwendbare Reflexionsfragen zur Verfügung gestellt, um die eigene Haltung auf verschiedenen Ebenen zu reflektieren. Zudem wird eine Methodik vorgestellt, mit der ein Bewusstsein für die Anwendung von geschlechterreflektierten Methoden geschaffen werden kann. Grundlegend dafür sind die Erkenntnisse über Geschlecht und geschlechts- sowie sexualitätsbedingter sozialer Ungleichheit. Um die Erkenntnisse und Handlungsempfehlungen zu verdeutlichen, begleitet ein praxisnahes fiktives Beispiel durch die gesamte Bachelorarbeit.

Arsenic may be targeted therapy for cancers harboring trim-domain containing fusion proteins
Creators: name: Al-Hraishawi, Husam Raheem Mohammed
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2021

description: Aberrant rearrangements in chromosome structure, leading to oncogenic fusion genes, occur in many hematological and solid tumors. The number of newly identified chromosomal rearrangements has rapidly increased during the past decade because of the widespread use of high-throughput DNA sequencing. Tyrosine kinase fusion result significant subset of oncogenic-rearrangement, which can function as driver oncogenes in multiple human cancers. Cancers harboring fusion genes involving such kinases are often initially highly sensitive to treatment with relevant kinase inhibitors. Unfortunately, resistance to kinase inhibitors almost always develops, highlighting the need for alternative treatment strategies. One approach is also to target the non-kinase partner of these fusion genes. For example, in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APML), which harbors the PML-RARA fusion gene, Arsenic trioxide (ATO) is an effective therapeutic solution. ATO specifically binds a cysteine motif in the PML region of the PML-RAR, leading to poly-SUMOylation and RNF4-mediated ubiquitination and degradation of the fusion protein. The combination of ATO and ATRA targets both the tripartite-motif (TRIM) domain found in the N-terminal of PML (also known as TRIM19), and the C-terminal ligand-binding domain of RARA, respectively, will lead to a long-term cure in the majority of APML patients harboring the fusion gene. Next-generation sequencing of cancers has identified that multiple TRIM family members, such as TRIM24 and TRIM33, are also found to be involved in gene rearrangements with oncogenic kinases in different cancer types, including a novel TRIM33-RET fusion (found in non-small cell lung cancer and thyroid cancer) and TRIM24-BRAF fusion (found in NSCLC as well as in melanoma). Both TRIM33 and TRIM24 also contain similar tripartite motifs found in PML (TRIM19). We hypothesize that ATO can specifically target fusion genes with a conserved TRIM domain for degradation and be part of rationally designed combination therapy for cancers harboring such fusion genes. We have shown with cell-based models that ATO can specifically degrade oncogenic TRIM33-RET fusion protein by RNF4 mediated ubiquitination and degradation. The combination of (As2O3) along with RET kinase inhibitor cabozantinib is more effective than that of cabozantinib alone. Our data provide a novel non-cross resistant strategy to treat a wide set of cancers driven by TRIM-domain containing oncogenic fusions.

description: We discuss how primordial (e.g. inflationary) non-Gaussianity in the cosmological perturbations is left imprinted in the Large-Scale Structure of the universe. Our findings show that the information on the primordial non-Gaussianity set on super-Hubble scales flows into Post-Newtonian terms, leaving an observable imprint in the Large-Scale Structure. Future high-precision measurements of the statistics of the dark matter density and peculiar velocity fields will allow to pin down the primordial non-Gaussianity, thus representing a tool complementary to studies of the Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropies.

description: All major exporting countries of agricultural commodities have some form of credit guarantee program. As the importance of credit programs escalates, it is incumbent on policy makers to examine the value of their program relative to those of competitors. In this study, a model based on option pricing theory was developed to estimate the value of credit guarantees extended to importers and applied to U.S. and competing countries' programs. The Canadian guarantee has the lowest implicit value, followed by the U.S., Australian, and French guarantees. French guarantees had the highest implicit value due to higher coverage for interest and freight and insurance.

description: It is shown that the first-order differential acreage allocation model developed by Bettendorf an Bloome and by Barten and Vanloot, and based on certainty equivalent profit maximization, may be extended to a levels version. The levels model, referred to as a linear approximate acreage allocation model, is potentially useful when panel or cross-sectional data are employed. An empirical application with U.S. state-level corn flex acreage data for the period 1991-95 indicates the feasibility of the approach. Estimated price and scale elasticities are generally larger than previous estimates, and are perhaps indicative of acreage response under the provisions of the 1996 Farm Act.

description: Die stationäre Heimerziehung stellt eine Form der Fremdunterbringung für Jugendliche dar, die in ihrer Entwicklung gefährdet sind. Dabei werden sie von Fachpersonen in ihrer individuellen Lebenslage unterstützt, begleitet und gefördert. Ziel der Fremdunterbringung ist es, die Jugendlichen in ihrer Persönlichkeitsentwicklung so zu fördern, dass diese in der Lage sind, ihr Leben nach dem Austritt selbstständig bewältigen zu können. Um eine adäquate Hilfe zu gewährleisen, erstellen Bezugspersonen gemeinsam mit den Jugendlichen mithilfe von Fallverstehen eine Hilfeplanung. Es wird untersucht, wie Fachpersonen Fallverstehen anwenden und dabei Sozialpädagogische Diagnostik in die Hilfeplanung integrieren. Dazu wurden vier Gruppendiskussionen mit Fachpersonen aus vier Institutionen durchgeführt, die als Sozialpädagog*innen täglich mit Jugendlichen zusammenarbeiten. Die persönlichen Haltungen und Erfahrungen der Fachpersonen standen dabei im Fokus der Forschung. In diesem Zusammenhang wurde die Komplexität von dialogischer und diagnostischer Anwendung von Fallverstehen in der Hilfeplanung deutlich. Dies deutet darauf hin, dass Hilfeleistungen unterschiedlich zustande kommen und keinem Standartverfahren unterstehen. Die Fachpersonen sehen sich mehrdimensionalen Spannungsfeldern ausgesetzt und sind bestrebt, sich mit diesen auseinanderzusetzen sowie die Grundsätze der Sozialen Arbeit zu achten.

Content-based retrieval of arbitrarily shaped video objects in the uncompressed and compressed domains
Creators: name: Erol, Berna
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Advancements in video object segmentation technology and the availability of efficient object-based video representations, such as MPEG-4 [1], have resulted in the increased availability of arbitrarily shaped digital video content. While this enables many exciting applications, the process of locating and accessing a desired video sequence can still be challenging because of the large volume of data associated with even compressed video. This dissertation proposes generic methods for the retrieval of arbitrarily shaped video objects in the MPEG-4 compressed domain, using their shape, local motion, and color content. Considering that a one-minute long video sequence may contain more than 1,500 frames, summarization of video content is necessary as a first step to efficiently retrieve video. Therefore, we first suggest a method for the summarization of arbitrarily shaped video objects. This is achieved by selecting the temporal instants of video objects -based on their compressed domain shape information- that efficiently represent the objects' salient content. Next, we propose to extend some well-proven still shape retrieval techniques to retrieve video objects in the compressed domain. We compute the Fourier and ART (Angular Radial Transform) descriptors on the shape approximations obtained from the MPEG-4 shape coding modes. We also present a method to compute the shape distances between two video objects based on these still shape features. Unlike in the case of still objects, one of the key features that describe a video object is motion. Classification of video objects by their local motion is addressed in this thesis by presenting three new motion descriptors. These descriptors are computed based on the shape deformations of arbitrarily shaped video, and assume no prior knowledge about the video content. Color is one of the most widely used low level features in content-based retrieval. In this thesis, we also study efficient color content matching of arbitrarily shaped video, and in particular, color histogram computation in the MPEG-4 compressed domain. Our experimental results demonstrate that our techniques enable effective and low complexity content-based retrieval. Employing MPEG-4 compressed domain information not only obviates the need for full decompression of the bit stream, hence yielding substantial computational savings, but also allows our techniques to be more robust to segmentation errors.

description: Observational effects of cosmic string loops depend on how loops are distributed in space. Chernoff \cite{Chernoff} has argued that loops can be gravitationally captured in galaxies and that for sufficiently small values of $Gμ$ their distribution follows that of dark matter, independently of the loop's length. We re-analyze this issue using the spherical model of galaxy formation with full account taken of the gravitational rocket effect -- loop accelerated motion due to asymmetric emission of gravitational waves. We find that only loops greater than a certain size are captured and that the number of captured loops is orders of magnitude smaller than estimated by Chernoff.

description: Laboratory methods are used to investigate the impacts of supply and demand risks in a forward market on prices, quantities traded, and earnings when the choice of transacting in a forward or spot market is endogenous. Forward market activity dominates spot trading, with 80-90% of the trades taking place in the forward market regardless of how risk arises. Buyer earnings tend to be higher than earnings for sellers when there is risk. A correspondence exists between risk type and the relative increase in buyer earnings. Buyer earnings increase significantly when demand is random, and also when both supply and demand are random.

description: We study sustained oscillations in two-dimensional oscillator systems driven by Rayleigh-type negative friction. In particular we investigate the influence of mismatch of the two frequencies. Further we study the influence of external noise and nonlinearity of the conservative forces. Our consideration is restricted to the case that the driving is rather weak and that the forces show only weak deviations from radial symmetry. For this case we provide results for the attractors and the bifurcations of the system. We show that for rational relations of the frequencies the system develops several rotational excitations with right/left symmetry, corresponding to limit cycles in the four-dimensional phase space. The corresponding noisy distributions have the form of hoops or tires in the four-dimensional space. For irrational frequency relations, as well as for increasing strength of driving or noise the periodic excitations are replaced by chaotic oscillations.

description: The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is an oncogenic virus that persists in a latent state within B-lymphocyte cells. This virus has been associated with numerous forms of haematologic malignancies, including leukaemia. The focus has been on the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), such as those in Interleukin-10, and leukaemia patients. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was employed to identify Epstein-Barr virus EBNA-1-IgG, whereas the Sanger sequencing approach was utilised to detect Interleukin-10 SNPs. This study aimed to ascertain the presence of Epstein-Barr virus EBNA-1-IgG in patients with acute lymphocytic leukaemia and to investigate Interleukin-10 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) -819T˃C (rs1800871) and -592A˃C (rs1800872) in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. The statistical examination of the immunological assay indicated no significant difference between the proportion of patients positive for EBV EBNA-1-IgG and the positive controls. The statistical analysis reveals a substantial disparity in the proportion of CC genotype carriers at IL10 -819T˃C (rs1800871) between patients and controls within the molecular study framework. A notable difference was seen in the prevalence of TC genotype carriers at IL10 -819T˃C (rs1800871) between patients and controls. A significant difference was observed between healthy controls and patients with AC, AA, and CC genotype carriers at IL10 -592A>C (rs1800872). This study illustrates the notable prevalence of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in individuals with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. This study demonstrates the association between acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and the CC and TC genotypes at IL10 -819T˃C (rs1800871), along with the AC, CC, and AA genotypes at IL10 -592A˃C (rs1800872).

description: The impact of proportional profit taxes on input use is analyzed under conditions of production uncertainty and risk aversion. Two kinds of profit taxes are considered: proportional profit taxes with perfect loss offset and revenue-neutral profits taxes. Their impact on optimal input use is examined under various forms of production uncertainty, such as the Just-Pope model and the cases of multiplicative and additive uncertainty. It is shown that the structure of risk attitudes, the form of production uncertainty, the underlying (stochastic) technical interdependencies, and the risk-input relations are crucial features in determining the impact of proportional profit taxes on optimal input use.

Die Ernennungspraxis von Beistandspersonen im Erwachsenenschutz im Kanton Luzern: Eine qualitative Untersuchung
Creators: name: Jacomet, Fabio
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: Bei der Ernennung von Beistandspersonen muss die Kindes- und Erwachsenenschutzbehörde bzw. das jeweilige Behördenmitglied fortlaufend ermessen, wer sich als Beistandsperson eignet. Die Orientierungspunkte dafür sind zurzeit vor allem normativ, da sie vorwiegend auf den entsprechenden Gesetzestexten (ZGB) und deren Interpretationen in der Forschungsliteratur basieren. Daraus ergibt sich das Problem fehlender empirischer Daten, da bisher nicht untersucht wurde, wie der Ernennungsprozess in der Praxis vollzogen wird. In der vorliegenden Bachelorarbeit geht Fabio Jacomet der Frage nach, wie sich die Ernennung von Beistandspersonen im Erwachsenenschutz im Kanton Luzern gestaltet. Um den Ist-Zustand zu erheben, wurden die Grundlagen aus der Forschungsliteratur und des ZGB mit den Aussagen der Experteninterviews von Behördenmitgliedern der Sozialen Arbeit unterschiedlicher KESB verglichen. Als zentrales Ergebnis dieser Arbeit ist festzuhalten, dass die Behördenmitglieder im Kanton Luzern nur begrenzten Einfluss auf die Eignungsprüfung und die konkrete Auswahl von potenziellen Beistandspersonen haben, obwohl diese gemäss Gesetz und Forschungsliteratur durch die KESB zu erfolgen hätten. Es wurde zudem ersichtlich, dass der vorhandene Ermessensspielraum der KESB im Ernennungsprozess durch die in der Praxis als zentral erachteten Gesetzesgrundsätze der Subsidiarität, Verhältnismässigkeit und Selbstbestimmung sowie durch fundierte Sozialabklärungen legitimiert und limitiert wird. Die Eignungshürden einer angehörigen Beistandsperson sind in der Praxis reduziert, da sie als wertvolle Ressource betrachtet und ihre Ernennung dementsprechend gefördert wird.

description: We present the results of our high-resolution spectroscopic follow-up of 42 planetary transit candidates in Carina from the OGLE survey. This follow-up has already allowed the discovery of three new transiting exoplanets, OGLE-TR-111, 113 and 132, presented in earlier Letters (Bouchy et al. 2004, Pont et al. 2004). Here we analyse the data for the remaining 39 candidates. The radial velocity data show that most of them are eclipsing binaries, in very varied configurations. Precise radial velocity orbits were derived for 15 binaries, revealing 9 transits of small stars (generally M-dwarfs) in front of F-G dwarfs, 1 grazing equal-mass eclipsing binary, 4 triple and 1 quadruple systems. A remaining 14 systems appear binary, but the exact orbit is uncertain or was not determined. 2 objects do not show any radial velocity variations in phase with the transit signal, and 6 do not possess spectral lines strong enough for a reliable cross-correlation function to be measured. Among these last two categories, up to 6 objects are suspected false positives of the photometric transit detection. Finally 2 objects are unsolved cases that deserve further observations. Our study illustrates the wide variety of cases that can mimic photometric planetary transits, and the importance of spectroscopic follow-up. Multi-fiber capacities and an optimized follow-up strategy, which we present here, can help deal with the high number of candidates that are likely to turn up in the near future. (abridged)

description: We present Face2Face, a novel approach for real-time facial reenactment of a monocular target video sequence (e.g., Youtube video). The source sequence is also a monocular video stream, captured live with a commodity webcam. Our goal is to animate the facial expressions of the target video by a source actor and re-render the manipulated output video in a photo-realistic fashion. To this end, we first address the under-constrained problem of facial identity recovery from monocular video by non-rigid model-based bundling. At run time, we track facial expressions of both source and target video using a dense photometric consistency measure. Reenactment is then achieved by fast and efficient deformation transfer between source and target. The mouth interior that best matches the re-targeted expression is retrieved from the target sequence and warped to produce an accurate fit. Finally, we convincingly re-render the synthesized target face on top of the corresponding video stream such that it seamlessly blends with the real-world illumination. We demonstrate our method in a live setup, where Youtube videos are reenacted in real time.

description: In dieser Arbeit werden geeignete Techniken für die Arbeit mit einzelnen Personen für das Arbeitsfeld Soziale Arbeit in der Schule untersucht. Strukturiert sind die Techniken nach dem Prozessmodell der Kooperativen Prozessgestaltung. Nach vielen Jahren der Einführung und Konsolidierung wird innerhalb der Sozialen Arbeit in der Schule die Frage gestellt, welche Konzepte, Theorien und Methoden sich für dieses Arbeitsfeld der Sozialen Arbeit eignen. Die vorliegende Arbeit will einen Beitrag zu dieser Diskussion leisten. Diese Arbeit zielt darauf ab, einen Werkzeugkoffer für die Arbeit mit einzelnen Kindern in der Soziale Arbeit in der Schule zu gestalten. In einem ersten Schritt werden hierfür geeignete Methoden festgelegt und anschliessend deren Techniken anhand eines Phasenmodells der Kooperativen Prozessgestaltung bewertet. Als geeignete Methoden kristallisierten sich die systemisch-lösungsorientierte Beratung und Methoden mit partizipativen Eigenschaften heraus. Das Ergebnis ist ein massgeschneiderter Werkzeugkoffer mit 29 Techniken, die aufgrund der Bewertung des Phasenmodelles in sich logisch strukturiert sind. Keine Techniken liessen sich für folgende zwei Prozessschritte finden: die Diagnose und die Interventionsdurchführung. Es zeigt sich, dass sich mit den in dieser Arbeit festgelegten Methoden eine grosse Vielfalt an Techniken innerhalb von fünf Prozessschritten finden lässt, jedoch eine Lücke innerhalb der Diagnose und Interventionsdurchführung besteht. Es stellt sich nun die Frage an die Professionellen der Sozialen Arbeit, wie sich diese Lücke schliessen lässt.

description: We develop a model to measure the degree of oligopsony power in the beef packing industry, while accommodating variable proportions technology, that can be estimated with fewer data requirements. In particular, nonspecialized input quantities, which are often not available, are not needed. Through application of the envelope theorem, we show that the relationship between value marginal product and marginal factor cost can be defined over the prices of the nonspecialized inputs rather than their corresponding quantities. When applied to the beef packing industry, we find no evidence of oligopsony power over our 1967-93 sample period.

Wie kann sich die Soziokulturelle Animation in Alters- und Pflegeheimen etablieren? Eine Untersuchung im Praxisfeld.

description: Im Zuge des demografischen Wandels nimmt der Anteil älterer Menschen an der Gesamtbevölkerung deutlich zu und gewinnt das Thema «Alter» zunehmend an Bedeutung. Im Fokus des gesellschaftlichen Diskurses stehen meist die «fitten, jungen und gesunden Alten», doch auch die Zunahme von pflegebedürftigen Menschen steigt Schätzungen zufolge bis zum Jahr 2030 um bis zu 45 Prozent an. Alters- und Pflegeheime, welche oftmals bereits heute an ihre Kapazitätsgrenzen stossen, stehen daher vor grossen Herausforderungen, die nur mit innovativen Ansätzen zu lösen sein werden. Die neuen Generationen bringen komplett andere Ansprüche mit, welchen sich das Betreuungsangebot anzupassen hat (heterogen und individuell). Bewohner_innen von Alters- und Pflegeheimen sind aufgrund ihres Gesundheitszustandes oft physisch und psychisch eingeschränkt, was eine soziale Exklusion begünstigen kann. Die soziale Teilhabe ist aber für den Gesundheitszustand der Bewohner_innen von zentraler Bedeutung und hilft auch bei der Sensibilisierung der Altersthematik in der Gesellschaft. Mit diesem zentralen Ansatz arbeitet die Soziokulturelle Animation in diversen Alters- und Pflegeheimen und leistet einen wertvollen Beitrag. Durch Interviews mit Soziokulturellen Animator_innen und Stellenleitungen Aktivierung von Alters- und Pflegeheimen wurde erforscht, dass die Soziokulturelle Animation durchaus ihr Potenzial im Handlungsfeld des 4. Alters hat und dass sie sich bislang aus verschiedenen Gründen noch nicht etablieren konnte.

description: Die soziale Integration ist als ein Prozess zu verstehen, welcher die Gesellschaft als Ganzes miteinbezieht. Laut dem Staatsekretariat für Migration ist ein friedliches Zusammenleben zwischen der Aufnahmegesellschaft und den Zugewanderten das Ziel. Soziale Integration aber betrifft nicht nur die Geflüchteten, sondern auch Gruppen, die sich sozial und finanziell in einer benachteiligten Lage befinden. Gemeinden und Städte werden in Bezug auf den Sozialraum vor neue Herausforderungen gestellt. Dies verlangt nach einem Umdenken und einer Anpassungsfähigkeit der Bautätigkeit und der Gestaltung von Raum, um auf die stetige Veränderung der Lebenswelten der Bewohnenden eingehen zu können, der Separierung von bestimmten Gruppen entgegenzuwirken und gleichzeitig deren Teilhabe-Chancen zu erhöhen. In Zürich Altstetten wurde durch eine Zusammenarbeit der Asylorganisation Zürich und des Jugendwohnnetzes mit der Siedlung der Stiftung Einfach Wohnen das erste Projekt der Schweiz gestartet, welches versucht die soziale Integration mit neuen Ansätzen anzugehen. Zum ersten Mal leben Geflüchtete und junge Erwachsene in Ausbildung in dieser Siedlung Tür an Tür. Dieses neuartige Projekt bildet der Untersuchungsgegenstand dieser Forschungsarbeit, wobei der Fokus auf das Zusammenleben der zwei unterschiedlichen Gruppen gerichtet wird. Verschiedene Faktoren, welche das Zusammenleben beeinflussen können, werden kritisch beleuchtet, um anschliessend aus den gewonnenen Erkenntnissen Handlungsempfehlungen abzuleiten.

description: The coexistence of charge density wave (CDW) and superconductivity in tantalum disulfide (2H-TaS$_2$) at ambient pressure, is boosted by applying hydrostatic pressures up to 30GPa, thereby inducing a typical dome-shaped superconducting phase. The ambient pressure CDW ground state which begins at TCDW = 76 K, with critically small Fermi surfaces, was found to be fully suppressed at Pc = 8.7GPa. Around Pc, we observe a superconducting dome with a maximum superconducting transition temperature Tc = 9.1 K. First-principles calculations of the electronic structure predict that, under ambient conditions, the undistorted structure is characterized by a phonon instability at finite momentum close to the experimental CDW wave vector. Upon compression, this instability is found to disappear, indicating the suppression of CDW order. The calculations reveal an electronic topological transition (ETT), which occurs before the suppression of the phonon instability, suggesting that the ETT alone is not directly causing the structural change in the system. The temperature dependence of the first vortex penetration field has been experimentally obtained by two independent methods and the corresponding lower critical field H$_{c1}$ was deduced. While a d wave and single-gap BCS prediction cannot describe our H$_{c1}$ experiments, the temperature dependence of the H$_{c1}$ can be well described by a single-gap anisotropic s-wave order parameter.

description: Urinary bladder cancer (UBC) is the most common malignancy of urinary tract, ranking tenth worldwide. In Iraq, UBC is the seventh among 10 most prevalent cancers. This study is designed to assess the expression of CD276 in different bladder tissue specimens from Iraqi UBC patients using immunohistochemistry (IHC). A total of 70 paraffin-embedded tissue blocks of bladder cancer were collected from the archive of the Histopathology Unit of several public hospitals and private labs in Baghdad, following formal authorizations, in addition to ten biopsies of bladder tissues without significant pathology assembled from the forensic medicine department and used for comparison purposes. The results showed that the expression of CD276 was positive in 41.43% of malignant cases and negative in 100% of normal bladder tissues with significant differences of P = 0.011 between the studied groups. It can be concluded that the present investigation reported elevated expression of CD276 in Iraqi UBC patients, correlated negatively with clinical features including patients′ age, sex, tumor′s size, stage, grade, and histological type. This suggests that this marker may be considered a target molecule in diagnosis or therapy of UBC.

description: In a dynamic contracting environment, increasing standards over time in light of past performance is known as the ratchet effect. Despite the recent theoretical attention given to the ratchet effect, models that include these effects have not been empirically tested against contract data. In this study, we use farm-level data on modern Great Plains agricultural cash rent and cropshare contracts to test for the presence of ratchet effects in the context of a principal-agent model with moral hazard. We find limited evidence for the ratchet effect within share contracts, and no evidence that it is important for the choice of contract between cash rent and cropshare.
