description: The Pneumatron device measures gas diffusion kinetics in the xylem of plants. The device provides an easy, low-cost, and powerful tool for research on plant water relations and gas exchange. Here, we describe in detail how to construct and operate this device to estimate embolism resistance of angiosperm xylem, and how to analyse pneumatic data. Simple and more elaborated ways of constructing a Pneumatron are shown, either using wires, a breadboard, or a printed circuit board. The instrument is based on an open-source hardware and software system, which allows users to operate it in an automated or semi-automated way. A step-by-step manual and a troubleshooting section are provided. An excel spreadsheet and an R-script are also presented for fast and easy data analysis. This manual aims at helping users to avoid common mistakes, such as unstable measurements of the minimum and maximum amount of gas discharged from xylem tissue, which has major consequences for estimating embolism resistance. Major advantages of the Pneumatron device include its automated and accurate measurements of gas diffusion rates, including highly precise measurements of the gas volume in intact, embolised conduits. It is currently unclear if the method can also be applied to woody monocots, gymnosperm species that possess torus-margo pit membranes, or to herbaceous species.

description: Abstract SARS‐CoV‐2 infection has emerged as not only a pulmonary but also potentially multi‐organ disease, which may cause long‐term structural damage of different organ systems including the lung, heart, vasculature, brain, liver, kidney, or intestine. As a result, the current SARS‐CoV‐2/COVID‐19 pandemic will eventually yield substantially increased numbers of chronically diseased patients worldwide, particularly suffering from pulmonary fibrosis, post‐myocarditis, chronic heart failure, or chronic kidney disease. Exercise recommendations for rehabilitation are complex in these patients and should follow current guidelines including standards for pre‐exercise medical examinations and individually tailored exercise prescription. It is of utmost importance to start exercise training at an early stage after COVID‐19 infection, but at the same time paying attention to the physical barriers to ensure safe return to exercise. For exercise recommendations beyond rehabilitation programs particularly for leisure time and elite athletes, more precise advice is required including assessment of sports eligibility and specific return‐to‐sports exercise programs. Because of the current uncertainty of long‐term course of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection or COVID disease, long‐term follow‐up seems to be necessary.

description: We derive a general formula for the early time dependence of a phase space distribution evolving according to the kinetic Boltzmann equation. Assuming that the early evolution of the system created in high-energy nuclear collisions can be described by kinetic theory, we calculate the scaling behaviors for the onset of various characteristics of the transverse dynamics. In particular, we show that the scaling behavior of the anisotropic flow coefficients $v_n$ at early times does not depend on the details of the collision kernel or the system composition, while at the same time it differs from the prediction of fluid dynamics.

description: Introduction The effects of intranasal administration of the neuropeptide oxytocin on social cognition and behavior are highly specific. Potentially situational and personal variables influence these effects. The aim of the present study was to investigate effects of oxytocin administration on self-serving lying, including situational effects. Methods A total of 161 adult males participated in a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled between-subject intranasal oxytocin administration (24 international units) study. Self-serving lying was assessed using three subsequent rounds of the die-in-a-cup paradigm, in which different degrees of lying can be implemented by the participants that can be determined on group level. Results Oxytocin administration seemed to promote self-serving lying, particularly in the third (last) round and only to a certain degree (not to the maximum possible). Conclusions Our findings demonstrate that oxytocin administration can promote self-serving lying when given repeated opportunities to lie. Moreover, exploratory results presented in the Supplementary Material indicate that the sensitivity to the effects of intranasal oxytocin in this domain might be moderated by individual differences in the oxytocin receptor gene.

description: Abstract Aiming at a deeper understanding of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation on carbon anodes in lithium‐ion batteries, we performed a combined electrochemical and spectroscopic model study using structurally well‐defined graphite model electrodes (highly oriented pyrolytic graphite, HOPG) and simplified model electrolytes (ethylene carbonate (EC)+1 M LiPF6 or dimethyl carbonate (DMC)+1 M LiPF6). In cyclic voltammetry measurements, we find initial activation of the reductive electrolyte decomposition at faster scan rates (1 or 10 mV s−1), whereas this is not the case at a slower scan rate (0.1 mV s−1). This activation effect, which is more pronounced for DMC, is explained by an increase in the HOPG surface area, presumably by electrode exfoliation; it is not observed on surface‐defect‐rich samples. XPS analysis shows that, regardless of the solvent and the scan rate, the SEI is mainly composed of LiF and only small amounts of solvent and other salt decomposition products.
description: The stage is set for the model: Solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation from simplified electrolytes on well‐defined model electrodes is investigated by employing cyclic voltammetry and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. On highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG), competition between initial activation and passivation is observed. image

description: For patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) lifestyle changes and disease management are key aspects of treatment that could be facilitated by mobile health applications (MHA). However, the quality and functions of MHA for CHD are largely unknown, since reviews are missing. Therefore, this study assessed the general characteristics, quality, and functions of MHA for CHD. Hereby, the Google Play and Apple App stores were systematically searched using a web crawler. The general characteristics and quality of MHA were rated with the Mobile Application Rating Scale (MARS) by two independent raters. From 3078 identified MHA, 38 met the pre-defined criteria and were included in the assessment. Most MHA were affiliated with commercial companies (52.63%) and lacked an evidence-base. An overall average quality of MHA (M = 3.38, SD = 0.36) was found with deficiencies in information quality and engagement. The most common functions were provision of information and CHD risk score calculators. Further functions included reminders (e.g., for medication or exercises), feedback, and health management support. Most MHA (81.58%) had one or two functions and MHA with more features had mostly higher MARS ratings. In summary, this review demonstrated that a number of potentially helpful MHA for patients with CHD are commercially available. However, there is a lack of scientific evidence documenting their usability and clinical potential. Since it is difficult for patients and healthcare providers to find suitable and high-quality MHA, databases with professionally reviewed MHA are required.

description: Abstract The aggregation of antibody light chains is linked to systemic light chain (AL) amyloidosis, a disease where amyloid deposits frequently affect the heart and the kidney. We here investigate fibrils from the λ-III FOR005 light chain (LC), which is derived from an AL-patient with severe cardiac involvement. In FOR005, five residues are mutated with respect to its closest germline gene segment IGLV3-19 and IGLJ3. All mutations are located close to the complementarity determining regions (CDRs). The sequence segments responsible for the fibril formation are not yet known. We use fibrils extracted from the heart of this particular amyloidosis patient as seeds to prepare fibrils for solid-state NMR. We show that the seeds induce the formation of a specific fibril structure from the biochemically produced protein. We have assigned the fibril core region of the FOR005-derived fibrils and characterized the secondary structure propensity of the observed amino acids. As the primary structure of the aggregated patient protein is different for every AL patient, it is important to study, analyze and report a greater number of light chain sequences associated with AL amyloidosis.

description: Objective Previous research suggests that patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) show an impaired capacity to mentalize (reflective functioning, RF). RF is discussed as a possible predictor of outcome in psychotherapeutic processes. The study aimed to explore RF in sessions of patients with AN and its association with outcome and type of treatment. Methods A post-hoc data analysis of selected cases from a randomized trial on outpatient psychotherapy for AN was conducted. Transcripts from 84 sessions of 28 patients (early phase, middle phase, and end of treatment) were assessed using the In-Session-Reflective-Functioning-Scale [14 cognitive-behavior therapy, enhanced (CBT-E); 14 focal psychodynamic therapy (FPT); 16 with good, 12 with poor outcome after 1 year]. Relations between the level of RF, type of treatment, and outcome were investigated using mixed linear models. Additionally, associations with depressive symptoms, weight gain, and therapeutic alliance were explored. Results Mean in-session RF was low. It was higher in FPT when compared to CBT-E treatments. The findings point to an association between RF increase and a positive outcome. An increase in BMI in the first half of treatment was associated with higher subsequent in-session RF. There was no association between RF and depressive symptoms or the therapeutic alliance. Discussion Patients with AN show a low capacity to mentalize in sessions, which seems to be at least partly dependent on the degree of starvation. The results suggest a possible relationship between an increase in in-session RF and outcome, which has to be replicated by further studies.

description: Many systems today rely heavily on virtual private network (VPN) technology to connect networks and protect their services on the Internet. While prior studies compare the performance of different implementations, they do not consider adversarial settings. To address this gap, we evaluate the resilience of VPN implementations to flooding-based denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. We focus on a class of stateless flooding attacks, which are particularly threatening to real connections, as they can be carried out by an off-path attacker using spoofed IP addresses. We have implemented various attacks to evaluate DoS resilience for three major open-source VPN solutions, with surprising results: On high-performance hardware with a $40\,\mathrm{Gb/s}$ interface, data transfer over established WireGuard connections can be fully denied with $700\,\mathrm{Mb/s}$ of attack traffic. For strongSwan (IPsec), an adversary can block any legitimate connections from being established using only $75\,\mathrm{Mb/s}$ of attack traffic. OpenVPN can be overwhelmed with $100\,\mathrm{Mb/s}$ of flood traffic denying data transfer through the VPN connection as well as connection establishment completely. Further analysis has revealed implementation bugs and major inefficiencies in the implementations related to concurrency aspects. These findings demonstrate a need for more adversarial testing of VPN implementations with respect to DoS resilience.

description: The development of current neuroleptics was largely aiming to decrease excessive dopaminergic signaling in the striatum. However, the notion that abnormal dopamine creates psychotic symptoms by causing an aberrant assignment of salience that drives maladaptive learning chronically during disease development suggests a therapeutic value of early interventions that correct salience-related neural processing. The mesolimbic dopaminergic output is modulated by several interconnected brain-wide circuits centrally involving the hippocampus and key relays like the ventral and associative striatum, ventral pallidum, amygdala, bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, nucleus reuniens, lateral and medial septum, prefrontal and cingulate cortex, among others. Unraveling the causal relationships between these circuits using modern neuroscience techniques holds promise for identifying novel cellular—and ultimately molecular—treatment targets for reducing transition to psychosis and symptoms of schizophrenia. Imaging studies in humans have implicated a hyperactivity of the hippocampus as a robust and early endophenotype in schizophrenia. Experiments in rodents, in turn, suggested that the activity of its output region—the ventral subiculum—may modulate dopamine release from ventral tegmental area (VTA) neurons in the ventral striatum. Even though these observations suggested a novel circuit-level target for anti-psychotic action, no therapy has yet been developed along this rationale. Recently evaluated treatment strategies—at least in part—target excess glutamatergic activity, e.g. N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC), levetiracetam, and mGluR2/3 modulators. We here review the evidence for the central implication of the hippocampus-VTA axis in schizophrenia-related pathology, discuss its symptom-related implications with a particular focus on aberrant assignment of salience, and evaluate some of its short-comings and prospects for drug discovery.

association testing

description: Objective: Case-control study designs are commonly used in retrospective analyses of Real-World Evidence (RWE). Due to the increasingly wide availability of RWE, it can be difficult to determine whether findings are robust or the result of testing multiple hypotheses. Materials and Methods: We investigate the potential effects of modifying cohort definitions in a case-control association study between depression and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2D). We used a large (>75 million individuals) de-identified administrative claims database to observe the effects of minor changes to the requirements of glucose and hemoglobin A1c tests in the control group. Results: We found that small permutations to the criteria used to define the control population result in significant shifts in both the demographic structure of the identified cohort as well as the odds ratio of association. These differences remain present when testing against age and sex-matched controls. Discussion: Analyses of RWE need to be carefully designed to avoid issues of multiple testing. Minor changes to control cohorts can lead to significantly different results and have the potential to alter even prospective studies through selection bias. Conclusion: We believe this work offers strong support for the need for robust guidelines, best practices, and regulations around the use of observational RWE for clinical or regulatory decision making.

Mammals persist near communities practicing subsistence livelihoods in southeastern Nicaragua

description: In tropical regions, reliance on protected areas to conserve wildlife has come under increased criticism. Remote communities on the southeastern coast of Nicaragua are shifting from predominantly fisheries-based livelihoods to forest-based—creating challenges for conservation of terrestrial mammals. We hypothesized that as hunting and farming pressure increased, occupancy would decrease due to increasing human pressures on the forest. We expected large-bodied mammals to experience the greatest decrease in occupancy, followed by meso-carnivores and, ultimately, generalist prey species. We placed cameras in lowland rainforest adjacent to nine small villages to capture images of terrestrial mammals at 80 unique sites in 2010, 2012 and 2014. We analyzed detection/non-detection data using single-season occupancy models with disturbance, livelihood, and interaction covariates. In 2010 and 2014, occupancy of low-sensitivity species (agouti, paca, armadillo, coati, white-tailed deer) was affected by distance from road (-), distance from coastline (+), and the interaction between livelihood and distance from community (+). Moderate-sensitivity species (ocelot, margay, jaguarundi, tayra, collared peccary) were only affected by gathering (+) and distance from road and coastline (+). High-sensitivity species (jaguar, puma, tapir, white-lipped peccary, red brocket deer) were affected by distance from road (+) and distance from fresh water (- 2010, + 2014). These effects may be closely related to the increasing human presence on the coast. The increase in farming likely provided food and edge habitat to support generalist herbivores in the low-sensitivity group, preventing rapid decline and supporting meso-carnivores within the moderate-sensitivity group. High-sensitivity species persisting at low occupancy throughout the study, but responded negatively to riparian development. These results indicate that while the impact of subsistence livelihoods on occupancy may be low, the effect of an advancing cattle-ranching frontier may be very high and warrants immediate action to prevent further decline in mammalian occupancy.

title: Die Erstanwendung der International Financial Reporting Standards
Creators: name: Brandl, Claudia
Year: 2009

description: Spätestens seit dem Jahr 2002, in dem die EU in ihrer IAS-Verordnung alle kapitalmarktorientierten Unternehmen zur Anwendung der IFRS verpflichtet hat, ist die Bedeutung der internationalen Rechnungslegungsstandards klar ersichtlich. In den letzten Jahren ging der Trend eindeutig in Richtung IFRS. Der IASB ist sich dieser wachsenden Anteilnahme bewusst und versucht, nicht zuletzt mit Hilfe eines Konvergenzprojekts mit dem amerikanischen Standardsetter, einheitliche internationale Rechnungslegungsvorschriften zu schaffen. Die steigende Bedeutung der IFRS ist auch im deutschen Sprachraum spürbar. Das zeigt sich zum Beispiel in einem neuen Bilanzrechtsmodernisierungsgesetz in Deutschland, welches die Unterschiede zwischen HGB und IFRS weiter reduziert. Geht der Trend in Zukunft so weiter, kann kein Unternehmen die Augen vor einer IFRS-Bilanzierung verschließen. Diese Ausarbeitung reagiert auf den derzeitigen Trend zu den IFRS und versucht eine erstmalige Anwendung der IFRS und ihre Auswirkungen auf einige Bilanzierungsbereiche zu zeigen. Anhand eines mittelständischen Unternehmens, welches Teil eines deutschen, nicht kapitalmarktorientierten Konzerns ist, wird eine IFRS-Erstanwendung beschrieben. Neben den möglichen Vor- und Nachteilen einer IFRS-Bilanzierung wird der Standard zur erstmaligen Anwendung der IFRS genau erläutert. Die Arbeit erklärt alle Wahlrechte und Ausnahmeregelungen für mittelständische Unternehmen und beschreibt die Vorgehensweise bei der Erstellung eines ersten IFRS-Abschlusses. In den letzten Abschnitten werden die Hauptauswirkungen der IFRS-Erstanwendung auf das mittelständische Unternehmen im Vergleich mit dem UGB dargestellt. Die Ausarbeitung zeigt, dass eine Anwendung der internationalen Rechnungslegungsstandards zu wesentlichen Veränderungen im Bilanzbild der Unternehmungen führen kann. Die Unterschiede zwischen IFRS und UGB erstrecken sich auf nahezu alle Bilanzierungsbereiche und können, abhängig vom bilanzierenden Unternehmen, große Auswirkungen haben. Zusätzlich gilt es den erhöhten Kosten- und Zeitaufwand zu berücksichtigen. Nach den aktuellen Entwicklungen zu schließen, werden sich in Zukunft viele Unternehmungen mit den IFRS auseinandersetzen müssen. Dabei sind eine gute Vorbereitung und eine detaillierte Planung der Schlüssel zum Erfolg. Kein Unternehmen sollte die erstmalige Anwendung der IFRS unterschätzen.

      called EUDE, by comparing its main principles and practices with the Path
      of Purification (Visuddhimagga), the work of a 5th century CE Buddhist

      sense of the EUDE practices and provide a conceptual framework for its
      methodology. The resulting comparison of both programmes will show the
      importance of phenomenological discipline in ethical development, that is,
      the programmatic and practical strategies for developing an ethical
      response to interaction with others.

      EUDE and Buddhaghosacārya share many of the same concerns and offer
      similar approaches to ethical development. They both address the
      conditions in experience that underlie moral choices and actions. Both
      work towards dismantling harmful conditions in experience through
      techniques that bring discipline, vision and understanding. Therefore, to
      a certain extent, the thesis is a comparative exploration of two practical
      disciplinary ethical programmes: The EUDE programme for children aged four
      to fifteen, and the Vissudhimaggha for Buddhist monks as well as the large
      virtuous (followers of sīla) Buddhist community. However, it is important
      to clarify that this thesis is more than a simple comparative exercise; it
      is a constructive effort to use Buddhaghosacārya’s systematic
      phenomenological methodology to provide a conceptual grounding for EUDE.
      This is because, although up to this point EUDE has been a highly
      successful and practical programme, its conceptual and philosophical
      principles have yet to be fully systematised and articulated. In a
      fascinating and productive way, this Buddhist thinker helps in that
      endeavour.

      My aim is to show how both programmes involve scrutiny of the conditions
      of thought and action as the means to make precise and structured
      interventions in ethical development. Their sustained attention to the
      psychological factors prior to decision-making or character formation
      allows for a very close comparative project of identifying and analysing
      ethical resources. Thus, we will see how the techniques for analytical
      attention to the conditions in experience in both programmes makes
      possible systematic ethical change, underlying an important contribution
      to the study of an essential area of ethical development.

description: Mature B cells co-express IgM and IgD B cell antigen receptors (BCR) on their surface. While IgM BCR expression is already essential at early stages of development, the role of the IgD-class BCR remains unclear as most B cell functions appeared unchanged in IgD-deficient mice. Here, we show that IgD-deficient mice have an accelerated rate of B cell responsiveness as they activate antibody production within 24h after immunization, whereas wildtype (WT) animals required 3 days to activate primary antibody responses. Strikingly, soluble monovalent antigen suppresses IgG antibody production induced by multivalent antigen in WT mice. In contrast, IgD-deficient mice were not able to modulate IgG responses suggesting that IgD controls the activation rate of B cells and subsequent antibody production by sensing and distinguishing antigen-valences. Using an insulinderived peptide we tested the role of IgD in autoimmunity. We show that primary autoreactive antibody responses are generated in WT and in IgD-deficient mice. However, insulin-specific autoantibodies were detected earlier and caused more severe symptoms of autoimmune diabetes in IgD-deficient mice as compared to WT mice. The rapid control of autoimmune diabetes in WT animals was associated with the generation of high-affinity IgM that protects insulin from autoimmune degradation. In IgD-deficient mice, however, the generation of high-affinity protective IgM is delayed resulting in prolonged autoimmune diabetes. Our data suggest that IgD is required for the transition from primary, highly autoreactive, to secondary antigen-specific antibody responses generated by affinity maturation.

description: HoSbTe was predicted to be a weak topological insulator, whose spin-orbit coupling (SOC) gaps are reported to be as large as hundreds of meV. Utilizing infrared spectroscopy, we find that the compound is of metallic nature from 350 K down to 10 K. Particularly, both of its itinerant carrier density and scattering rate are demonstrated to decrease with temperature cooling, which is responsible for the appearance of a broad hump feature in the temperature dependent resistivity around 200 K. More importantly, we reveal the appearance of a charge density wave (CDW) gap in addition to the SOC related gap. The energy scale of the CDW gap is identified to be 364 meV at 10 K, which shift to 252 meV at 350 K. The coexistence of CDW and SOC gaps in the same compound paves a new avenue to explore more intriguing physics.

Hydraulic architecture of Sierra Nevada conifers

Year: 2017

description: Background/Question/Methods

Trees are susceptible to the interactive effects of climate and individual ecology due to their long life span and lack of mobility. Tree response to climatic stress may be tempered or exacerbated by competition and individual physiology. The 2012-2016 California drought is the most severe in half a century in terms of snowpack and water availability, and has resulted in at least 27 million dead trees. Surviving trees are ostensibly more drought-resilient than dead trees, and may or may not exhibit more drought-resilient traits, but little work has been conducted to specifically test this premise. I used dendrochronological approaches to examine anatomy of tracheids (the primary water-conducting structure in conifers) in Pinus ponderosa and Pinus jeffreyi in the Sierra Nevada mountains. The hydraulic safety factor (HSF, the ratio of tracheid wall thickness to tracheid diameter) is a representation of resistance to xylem collapse or cavitation under drought stress. I tested for differences in HSF between drought-killed and surviving individuals along an elevation and drought stress gradient. I then quantified the degree of drought resilience (a measure of both drought tolerance and recovery from drought) afforded by various trait combinations.

Results/Conclusions

I find that drought stress induces thicker tracheid walls both during and after drought. P. ponderosa has a lower HSF than P. jeffreyi across all samples. Living and dead trees exhibited differences in HSF. Trees of both species killed in the last year have a lower HSF and larger tracheid diameter than living trees, but also had lower HSF than trees killed in prior years, demonstrating that HSF itself does not predict drought tolerance. Living P. ponderosa trees have a higher HSF at moist higher elevation areas than at more stressed sites. The opposite was observed in P. jeffreyi. Overall drought resilience is higher at more stressed sites, with pre-stressed trees more able to recover following returns to mesic conditions. These results demonstrate the range of drought tolerance strategies used by pines. No one strategy confers better drought resilience, but living trees employ intermediate HSFs, demonstrating potential tradeoffs between drought defenses, growth, and other resource uses. Current models of hydraulic architecture predict direct relationships between hydraulic safety and resistance to drought, but this was not consistently observed. Further exploration of these traits will allow development of trait-based models of forest response to climate change that scale from the cell through the individual to the stand.

description: This paper deals with a case study in the formal derivation of data-parallel algorithms by means of program transformations. Particular emphasis is on the observation that a careful choice of suitable operations on abstract data structures and a thorough investigation of their algebraic properties can reduce substantial parts of the development activities to pure algebraic calculation.
