description: The quiescent and bursty radio emission observed in about 10% of Ultra-Cool Dwarfs (UCDs; spectral class > M7) indicates the presence of strong, persistent magnetic fields. Radio frequency observations have been key to characterising the radio emission mechanisms as well as the magnetospheric structure for some radio-loud UCDs. However, important questions remain unanswered, including the generation, structure, and evolution of UCD magnetic fields; and how the UCD magnetosphere is populated with non-thermal electrons responsible for the radio emission. The majority of studies of UCDs at radio frequencies have been in the 4-8 GHz band. Hence the nature of UCD radio emission at low frequencies (< 1.4 GHz) remains relatively unexplored, and could provide key insights into these questions. In this talk, I will present the results of GMRT observations of 9 UCDs taken at ~610 and 1300 MHz. These are the first observations of UCDs in this frequency range to be published in the literature. Using these observations, we are able to constrain the shape of the spectral energy distribution for the detected UCDs, LSPM J1314+1320 and 2MASS J0746+20. We are also able to determine if there is a low-frequency counterpart to the bursty and pulsed radio emission observed at higher radio frequencies. These results provide new insights into the physical conditions in UCD magnetospheres.

Raspberry, not a car: context predictability and a phonological advantage in early and late learners’ processing of speech in noise

description: Second language learners perform worse than native speakers under adverse listening conditions, such as speech in noise (SPIN). No data are available on heritage language speakers’ (early naturalistic interrupted learners’) ability to perceive SPIN. The current study fills this gap and investigates the perception of Russian speech in multi-talker babble noise by the matched groups of high-and low-proficiency heritage speakers (HSs) and late second language learners of Russian who were native speakers of English. The study includes a control group of Russian native speakers. It manipulates the noise level (high and low), and context cloze probability (high and low). The results of the SPIN task are compared to the tasks testing the control of phonology, AXB discrimination and picture-word discrimination, and lexical knowledge, a word translation task, in the same participants. The increased phonological sensitivity of HSs interacted with their ability to rely on top–down processing in sentence integration, use contextual cues, and build expectancies in the high-noise/high-context condition in a bootstrapping fashion. HSs out performed oral proficiency-matched late second language learners on SPIN task and two tests of phonological sensitivity. The outcomes of the SPIN experiment support both the early naturalistic advantage and the role of proficiency in HSs. HSs’ ability to take advantage of the high-predictability context in the high-noise condition was mitigated by their level of proficiency. Only high-proficiency HSs, but not any other non-native group, took advantage of the high-predictability context that became available with better phonological processing skills in high-noise. The study thus confirms high-proficiency (but not low-proficiency) HSs’ nativelike ability to combine bottom–up and top–down cues in processing SPIN.

description: Objective. To understand the relationships between participation in different types of leisure time sport activity and adolescent obesity, and how those relationships might differ based on race, gender, and household income. Methods. Data consisted of 6667 students that took part in the 1999 to 2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The authors used adjusted Wald tests to examine differences in the prevalence of obesity (body mass index >95th percentile for age and sex) by sport for boys and girls separately. Results. Among adolescent youth age 12 to 19 years, 16.6% of male leisure time sport participants and 15.3% of female sport participants were obese, compared with 23.6% for male nonathlete participant-in-other-activities and 17.0% obesity rate for female nonathlete/participant-in-other-activities. For both males and females, reported participation in leisure time sports decreased between middle school and high school, and this reduction was associated with higher body mass index.

description: Although endogenous glucocorticoids (GCs) are important regulators of bone integrity and the immune system, their role in bone repair after fracture—a process highly dependent on inflammation and bone formation–is unclear. Because most effects of GCs are mediated by the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), we used an inducible global GR knockout (GRgtROSACreERT2) mouse model to eliminate endogenous GC action in all cells contributing to bone repair. The healing process was analyzed by cytokine/chemokine multiplex analysis, flow cytometry, histology, gene-expression analysis, microcomputed tomography, and biomechanical analysis. We observed increased early systemic and local inflammatory responses, as well as a significantly higher number of T cells infiltrating the fracture callus. Later in the healing process, we found impaired endochondral ossification in the absence of the GR, leading to persistent cartilage in the calli of the GRgtROSACreERT2 mice, decreased bending stiffness, and a significantly lower proportion of healed bones. Collectively, our data show that the absence of the GR significantly impairs fracture healing associated with a defective cartilage-to-bone transition, underscoring an important role of GCs during fracture healing.

description: Emerging plant pathogens have been increasing exponentially over the last century. To address this issue, it is critical to determine whether these pathogens are native to ecosystems or have been recently introduced. Understanding the ecological and evolutionary processes fostering emergence can help to manage their spread and predict epidemics/epiphytotics. Using restriction site-associated DNA sequencing data, we studied genetic relationships, pathways of spread, and evolutionary history of Phellinus noxius, an emerging root-rotting fungus of unknown origin, in eastern Asia, Australia, and the Pacific Islands. We analyzed patterns of genetic variation using Bayesian inference, maximum likelihood phylogeny, populations splits and mixtures measuring correlations in allele frequencies and genetic drift, and finally applied coalescent based theory using Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) with supervised machine learning. Population structure analyses revealed five genetic groups with signatures of complex recent and ancient migration histories. The most probable scenario of ancient pathogen spread is movement from an unsampled population to Malaysia and the Pacific Islands, with subsequent spread to Taiwan and Australia. Furthermore, ABC analyses indicate P. noxius spread occurred thousands of generations ago, contradicting previous assumptions that this pathogen was recently introduced to multiple geographic regions. Our results suggest that recent emergence of P. noxiusin eastern Asia, Australia, and the Pacific Islands is likely driven by anthropogenic and natural disturbances, such as deforestation, land-use change, severe weather events, and/or introduction of exotic plants. This study provides a novel example of applying genome-wide allele frequency data to unravel dynamics of pathogen emergence under changing ecosystem conditions.

title: Edward L. Bernays - eine kulturgeschichtliche Biografie
Creators: name: Lichtenberger, Bettina
Year: 2009

description: Edward L. Bernays war einer der wichtigsten Pioniere auf dem Gebiet der Public Relations. Sein Leben und seine Arbeit wurden bisher in der deutschsprachigen Literatur noch nicht sehr ausführlich behandelt. Diese Arbeit präsentiert die Person Bernays in seinem Schaffen und Wirken auf die Öffentlichkeit. Eine kurze Biografie erklärt seine familiären Hintergründe. Erinnerungen seiner Tochter Anne runden die familiäre Sicht ab. Bernays Beitrag zur Etablierung des Begriffes PR und Entwicklung des Berufes Public Relations-Berater, der als maßgeblich für die Weiterentwicklung der Öffentlichkeitsarbeit als Kommunikationspraxis und Wissenschaft angesehen werden kann, bildet die Basis der vorliegenden Arbeit. In diesem Zusammenhang wird aber auch Aufschluss darüber gegeben, durch welche Faktoren wiederum Bernays in seinem Handeln selbst beeinflusst wurde. Als Neffe Sigmund Freuds war die Massenpsychologie einer der bestimmendsten Faktoren sowohl in seinen theoretischen Ansätzen als auch in seiner kommunikativen Praxis. Seine Ideen und Ausführungen legten den Grundstein für viele theoretische Ansätze anderer Wissenschafter. Bernays war weiters in seinem Beruf als PR-Berater hoch angesehen. Dennoch waren einige seiner Kampagnen sehr umstritten. Die Autorin präsentiert daher nicht nur die positiven Aspekte von Bernays Schaffen, sondern zeigt ebenso, dass seine Arbeit nicht immer positiv geprägt war.

description: Arrays of single crystal TiO2 rutile nanorods (RNRs) appear highly promising as electroncollecting substrates in hybrid photoanodes as the RNRs offer direct charge carriers transport pathways, contrary to the conventional electrodes prepared from TiO2 powders that suffer from the numerous charge traps at the grain boundaries. However, the specific surface area of the nanorods is highly limited by their smooth morphology, which might be detrimental in view of utilizing the RNR as a substrate for immobilizing other functional materials. In this study, we developed a novel anatase-wrapped RNR (ARNR) material fabricated by a facile seed layer-free hydrothermal method. The ARNR comprises polycrystalline anatase nanoparticles formed on the surface of RNR, resulting in a large surface area that provides more deposition sites compared to the bare nanorods. Herein, we functionalize ARNR and RNR electrodes with polymeric carbon nitride (CNx) coupled with a CoO(OH)x cocatalyst for dioxygen evolution. The anatase wrapping of the rutile nanorod scaffold is found to be crucial for effective deposition of CNx and for improved photoanode operation in visible light-driven (λ > 420 nm) oxygen evolution, yielding a significant enhancement of photocurrent (by the factor of ∼3.7 at 1.23 V vs. RHE) and faradaic efficiency of oxygen evolution (by the factor of ∼2) as compared to photoanodes without anatase interlayer. This study thus highlights the importance of careful interfacial engineering in constructing photoelectrocatalytic systems for solar energy conversion and paves the way for the use of ARNR-based electron collectors in further hybrid and composite photochemical architectures for solar fuel production.

Safely extending procedure types to allow nested procedures as values (corrected version)
Creators: name: Heinlein, Christian
Publisher: name: Universität Ulm
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Process control. Data processing

description: The concept of nested procedure values, i. e., the possibility of using nested procedures as values of procedure types, is a useful and powerful concept. Nevertheless, it is not allowed in languages such as Modula-2 and Oberon(-2), because it creates a serious security hole when used inappropriately. To prevent such misuse while at the same time retaining the benefits of the concept, alternative language rules as well as a small language extension for Oberon-2 are suggested, which allow nested procedures to be safely used as values of procedure types and especially to pass them as parameters to other procedures.

description: Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are biomolecules with antimicrobial activity against a broad group of pathogens. In the past few decades, AMPs have represented an important alternative for the treatment of infectious diseases. Their isolation from natural sources has been widely investigated. In this sense, mollusks are promising organisms for the identification of AMPs given that their immune system mainly relies on innate response. In this report, we characterized the peptide fraction of the Cuban freshwater snail Pomacea poeyana (Pilsbry, 1927) and identified 37 di erent peptides by nanoLC-ESI-MS-MS technology. From these peptide sequences, using bioinformatic prediction tools, we discovered two potential antimicrobial peptides named Pom-1 (KCAGSIAW AIGSGLFGGAKLIKIKKYIAELGGLQ) and Pom-2 (KEIERAGQRIRDAIISAAPAVETLAQAQKIIKGG). Database search revealed that Pom-1 is a fragment of Closticin 574 previously isolated from the bacteria Clostridium tyrobutyrium, and Pom-2 is a fragment of cecropin D-like peptide first isolated from Galleria mellonella hemolymph. These sequences were chemically synthesized and evaluated against di erent human pathogens. Interestingly, structural predictions of both peptides in the presence of micelles showed models that comprise two alpha helices joined by a short loop. The CD spectra analysis of Pom-1 and Pom-2 in water showed for both structures a high random coil content, a certain content of -helix and a low -sheet content. Like other described AMPs displaying a disordered structure in water, the peptides may adopt a helical conformation in presence of bacterial membranes. In antimicrobial assays, Pom-1 demonstrated high activity against the Gram-negative bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa and moderate activity against Klebsiella pneumoniae and Listeria monocytogenes. Neither of the two peptides showed antifungal action. Pom-1 moderately inhibits Zika Virus infection but slightly enhances HIV-1 infectivion in vitro. The evaluation of cell toxicity on primary human macrophages did not show toxicity on THP-1 cells, although slight overall toxicity was observed in high concentrations of Pom-1. We assume that both peptides may play a key role in innate defense of P. poeyana and represent promising antimicrobial candidates for humans.

description: In dieser Arbeit werden Kinder im Kinderschwimmkurs bezüglich geschlechts(un)typischer Verhaltensweisen untersucht. Die Kinder werden während und nach dem Schwimmkurs beobachtet und ihr Verhalten mittels Video aufgezeichnet und analysiert. Aus den Videos werden verschiedene Situationen identifiziert und in typisch und untypisch weibliche und männliche eingeteilt. Es zeigt sich, dass 75% aller Situationen geschlechtertypische Verhaltensweisen der Kindergartenkinder beinhalten und weniger als 30% der Kinder geschlechtsneutrale Badekleidung bezüglich ihrer Muster und Formen trugen. Es ist daher bedeutsam, die TrainerInnen und LehrerInnen im Schwimmsport auch hinsichtlich der Genderthematik zu sensibilisieren, damit traditionelle Geschlechterrollen überarbeitet werden können.
description: This paper deals with children in swimming situations and investigates their gender-(un)specific behaviour in the lessons. The children have been observed during, as well as after the swimming lessons, and their behaviour has been taped and analysed. Various situations have been identified from the videotapes and classified as typically and atypically male and female behaviour patterns. This research shows that 75% of all the situations investigated demonstrate typical gender-specific behaviour among the children, and less than 30% of the children were wearing unisex swimwear, as far as pattern and design are concerned. Consequently, it is of utmost importance to make trainers, coaches and teachers working in swimming sensitive to the issue of gender in order to rethink traditional gender roles.

description: The understanding of human and non-human microstructural brain alterations in the course of neurodegenerative diseases has substantially improved by the non-invasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Animal models (including disease or knockout models) allow for a variety of experimental manipulations, which are not applicable to humans. Thus, the DTI approach provides a promising tool for cross-species cross-sectional and longitudinal investigations of the neurobiological targets and mechanisms of neurodegeneration. This overview with a systematic review focuses on the principles of DTI analysis as used in studies at the group level in living preclinical models of neurodegeneration. The translational aspect from in-vivo animal models toward (clinical) applications in humans is covered as well as the DTI-based research of the non-human brains’ microstructure, the methodological aspects in data processing and analysis, and data interpretation at different abstraction levels. The aim of integrating DTI in multiparametric or multimodal imaging protocols will allow the interrogation of DTI data in terms of directional flow of information and may identify the microstructural underpinnings of neurodegeneration-related patterns.
Seasonal elevational patterns and the underlying mechanisms of avian diversity and community structure on the eastern slope of Mt. Gongga

description: This dataset contains bird survey data (Appedenix 2) and bird trait data (Appedenix 1) in the paper: "He et al. (2022) Seasonal elevational patterns and the underlying mechanisms of avian diversity and community structure on the eastern slope of Mt. Gongga. Diversity and Distributions". Main results of the paper are that TD, PD and FD showed similar hump-shaped elevational patterns in both seasons. In the breeding season, TD, PD and FD for small-ranged species, were highly correlated with climatic factors (mean daily temperature, seasonal temperature range) and vegetation factors (enhanced vegetation index), while large-ranged species were correlated with spatial factors (mid-domain effect). In the non-breeding season, TD, PD and FD for all species groupings were positively correlated with climate factors. For small-ranged species in both seasons, community structure was more overdispersed at low and high elevations, and more clustered at middle elevations. For large-ranged species, community structure differed between seasons, showing a general trend toward clustering as elevations increase in the breeding season and trends toward overdispersion and/or evenness as elevations increase in the non-breeding season.

description: In software product lines, variability models are used to explicitly capture commonalities and variability of a set of software systems. Many variability modeling approaches have been developed over a period of more than 30 years. Most of them are only described in academic papers, which makes it difficult to assess their properties and find the right approach for a specific use case. New approaches are developed regularly, adding to the ever-growing plethora of variability modeling approaches. Transforming variability models, i.e., of one type to another, would help to better understand and compare existing approaches and would also enable users to switch between approaches. Since variability modeling approaches differ especially in terms of scope and expressiveness, it is difficult to implement transformations without information loss. Thus, in this paper, we analyze concrete variability modeling approaches, present a mapping of key concepts between them, and identify and classify the information lost in one-way and roundtrip transformations. We evaluate their applicability by transforming different models of varying size and complexity using an existing implementation of transformations. We argue that our classification of information loss contributes to a better understanding of different variability modeling approaches, simplifies the comparability, and allows users to grasp the impact of transformations.

description: A new semi-quantitative method was developed to detect Li deposition on Si/graphite anodes. This method is based on Post-Mortem glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy (GD-OES) depth profiling. Based on the contents of Si, Li, and O in the GD-OES depth profiles, we define a corridor, in which the minimum amount of metallic Li on the anode is located. This method was applied to three types of commercial 18650 cells with Si/graphite anodes in the fresh state and with Li plating intentionally produced by cycling at low temperatures. Additional cells were cycling aged at 45 °C to 80% SOH. The main aging mechanisms at 45 °C were determined using differential voltage analysis (DVA), SEM, and half cell experiments. Subsequently, the cells aged at 45 °C were further cycled under the conditions that had led to Li deposition for the fresh cells. Furthermore, the anode coating thickness for 18 types of commercial Li-ion cells are correlated with the specific energy, while distinguishing between graphite anodes and Si/graphite anodes.

description: Connected and cooperative driving requires precise calibration of the roadside infrastructure for having a reliable perception system. To solve this requirement in an automated manner, we present a robust extrinsic calibration method for automated geo-referenced camera calibration. Our method requires a calibration vehicle equipped with a combined GNSS/RTK receiver and an inertial measurement unit (IMU) for self-localization. In order to remove any requirements for the target's appearance and the local traffic conditions, we propose a novel approach using hypothesis filtering. Our method does not require any human interaction with the information recorded by both the infrastructure and the vehicle. Furthermore, we do not limit road access for other road users during calibration. We demonstrate the feasibility and accuracy of our approach by evaluating our approach on synthetic datasets as well as a real-world connected intersection, and deploying the calibration on real infrastructure. Our source code is publicly available.

description: As responses of immortalized endothelial cells of the bovine retina (iBREC) to VEGF-A165 depend on exposure time to the growth factor, we investigated changes evident after long-term treatment for nine days. The cell index of iBREC cultivated on gold electrodes—determined as a measure of permeability—was persistently reduced by exposure to the growth factor. Late after addition of VEGF-A165 protein levels of claudin-1 and CD49e were significantly lower, those of CD29 significantly higher, and the plasmalemma vesicle associated protein was no longer detected. Nuclear levels of β-catenin were only elevated on day two. Extracellular levels of VEGF-A—measured by ELISA—were very low. Similar to the binding of the growth factor by brolucizumab, inhibition of VEGFR2 by tyrosine kinase inhibitors tivozanib or nintedanib led to complete, although transient, recovery of the low cell index when added early, though was inefficient when added three or six days later. Additional inhibition of other receptor tyrosine kinases by nintedanib was similarly unsuccessful, but additional blocking of c-kit by tivozanib led to sustained recovery of the low cell index, an effect observed only when the inhibitor was added early. From these data, we conclude that several days after the addition of VEGF-A165 to iBREC, barrier dysfunction is mainly sustained by increased paracellular flow and impaired adhesion. Even more important, these changes are most likely no longer VEGF-A-controlled.

description: Background: Currently, there are 2 strategies to increase the effect of systemic thrombolysis with alteplase (rtPA) in acute major stroke: endovascular treatment via stent retrieval and ultrasound enhancement (sonothrombolysis). This study compares these 2 approaches in patients with proximal intracranial occlusion of the anterior circulation. Methods: Consecutive data on the treatment outcome of acute middle cerebral artery (M1) or carotid T occlusion were collected from 2 stroke centers: one center used rtPA plus endovascular stent retrieval as standard treatment and the other rtPA plus ultrasound (sonothrombolysis). The primary outcome was functional independence (modified Rankin scale (mRS) 0-2) after neurorehabilitation. Results: A total of 132 patients were assessed (n = 73 endovascular, n = 59 sonothrombolysis). The rate of functional independence was higher for endovascular treatment (adjusted OR 3.89 (95% CI 1.36-12.58)). Additionally, ordinal mRS analysis favored the endovascular strategy (adjusted common OR 1.70 (95% CI 0.88-3.31)). Subgroup analysis showed that endovascular treatment was superior for carotid T occlusion (adjusted common OR 5.61 (95% CI 1.60-20.93)), but not for middle cerebral artery occlusion (adjusted common OR 1.07 (95% CI 0.47-2.43)). Symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage occurred in 3 patients from the endovascular group. Conclusions: This observational study suggests that endovascular treatment of acute major anterior circulation stroke is superior to sonothrombolysis in terms of functional outcome. This benefit seems to pertain primarily to patients with carotid T occlusion, whereas patients with M1 occlusion seem to profit in a similar way from both methods.
