 Abstract  Estetrol/drospirenone is a combined oral contraceptive (COC) with a plant-synthesised foetal oestrogen (estetrol) and a well-established progestin (drospirenone). In preclinical models, estetrol has lower binding affinity for the oestrogen receptor-α (ER-α) in contrast to estradiol and has antagonistic properties against membrane ER-α in several tissues, including the breast, while retaining agonistic activity on receptors located in the nucleus. The low oestrogenicity of estetrol may potentially contribute to reduced thrombotic risk. Estetrol/drospirenone was an effective contraceptive in phase II and III clinical trials, with regular and predictable bleeding cycles maintained in the majority of women. Estetrol/drospirenone was generally well-tolerated with metrorrhagia reported as the most common treatment-related adverse event, which is consistent with other COCs. Cases of migraines with aura (or severe migraines), deep vein thrombosis, hyperkalaemia and depression were rarely reported during the phase III trials. Overall, estetrol/drospirenone is an effective and generally well-tolerated COC, with a potentially reduced risk of thrombosis.

title: Die "letzte Hürde" am Weg zum "Sportstudium"
Creators: name: König, Florian
Year: 2017

description: Um zu einem Studium der Sportwissenschaft bzw. einem Lehramtsstudium für das Unterrichtsfach Bewegung und Sport an einer österreichischen Universität zugelassen zu werden, ist die erfolgreiche Absolvierung einer „Ergänzungsprüfung zum Nachweis der körperlich motorischen Eignung“ erforderlich. Im Zuge dieser Ergänzungsprüfung, die einmal pro Semester stattfindet und sich über mehrere Tage erstreckt, kommt es zur Überprüfung verschiedener sportmotorischer Fähigkeiten und sportartenspezifischer Fertigkeiten, wobei die Anforderungen in den einzelnen Fertigkeitsbereichen sehr vielseitig und damit auch relativ anspruchsvoll sind. Eine Vielzahl an Bewerber(inne)n scheitert an dieser Prüfung, am Institut für Sportwissenschaft der Universität Wien lag die Erfolgsquote im Herbst 2016 bei etwa 50%. Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Diplomarbeit wurde untersucht, welche Faktoren einen relevanten Einfluss auf die erfolgreiche Absolvierung der Ergänzungsprüfung haben. Von besonderem Interesse waren dabei soziodemographische Merkmale, die Sportsozialisation und das Sportengagement der Studienanwärter(innen), sowie diverse Faktoren, die die Ergänzungsprüfung selbst betreffen. Dabei wurden sowohl Zusammenhänge zwischen den genannten Merkmalen und dem Ergebnis der Ergänzungprüfung, als auch Unterschiede zwischen erfolgreichen und nicht erfolgreichen Teilnehmer(inne)n untersucht. Aus methodischer Sicht wurde die Untersuchung so angelegt, dass im September 2016 eine Vollerhebung aller Teilnehmer(innen) der Ergänzungsprüfung am Institut für Sportwissenschaft der Universität Wien durchgeführt wurde. Alle zu dieser Prüfung angemeldeten Kandidat(inn)en wurden dazu gebeten, einen schriftlichen Fragebogen auszufüllen. Die Rücklaufquote betrug zwei Drittel der Kandidat(inn)en. Die Ergebnisse der Auswertung der erhobenen Daten zeigen, dass die Anzahl an Fami-lienangehörigen, die Mitglied in einem Sportverein sind bzw. die die Dienste kommerziel-ler Sportanbieter in Anspruch nehmen, als Prädikatoren für eine erfolgreiche Absolvierung der Ergänzungsprüfung betrachtet werden können. Des Weiteren waren die erfolgreichen Kandidat(inn)en signifikant besser über die Prüfungskriterien informiert, als die nicht er-folgreichen Teilnehmer(innen). Den größten Einfluss auf eine erfolgreiche Absolvierung der Ergänzungsprüfung haben jedoch die Teilnahme an den Vorbereitungswochen des Universitätssportinstituts Wien, sowie der Besuch einer Schule mit sportlichem Schwerpunkt.

description: Der Translationsprozess innerhalb der Filmsynchronisation wird hauptsächlich durch die speziellen Bestandteile des multimedialen Textes bestimmt. Die komplexe Aufgabe des Translators besteht darin, das Zusammenspiel der visuellen und verbalen Codes aufrechtzuerhalten, damit die multimediale Kommunikationssituation auch in der Synchronfassung gewährleistet werden kann. In der vorliegenden Masterarbeit wird die englische Version des Fanfilmes „Regrets of the Past“ beleuchtet, die von Fans produziert und übersetzt wurde. Bevor jedoch die Qualitätsbeurteilung der Synchronfassung nach dem übersetzungskritischen Analysemodell von Margret Ammann durchgeführt wird, wird zunächst der wissenschaftstheoretische Rahmen für die gegenständliche Arbeit bestimmt. Im Anschluss werden von der Verfasserin dieser Masterarbeit drei unterschiedliche Szenen der synchronisierten Version nach Ammanns funktionalem Schema analysiert. Am Ende werden die Forschungsergebnisse präsentiert und die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse in der abschließenden Diskussion reflektiert.
description: The translation process within the field of film dubbing is mainly determined by the specific components of the multimedia text. The complex task of the translator is to ensure that the interaction of visual and verbal codes can be maintained, in order to guarantee the communication situation in the dubbed version of the film. In the present Master´s thesis the English version of the fan film “Regrets of the Past” is examined. “Regrets of the Past” was produced and translated into English by fans. Before, however, a quality assessment of the dubbed version according to Margret Ammann’s analysis model of translation critique is conducted, first of all a scientific-theoretical frame is determined for this thesis. Then three different scenes of the dubbed version which have been selected by the author of this thesis are examined according to Margret Ammann´s functional analysis model. In the end the results of the research are presented and reflected in the final discussion.

description: Experimental measurements show that the angular dependence of the anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) in L1$_0$ ordered FePt epitaxial films on the current orientation and magnetization direction is a superposition of the corresponding dependences of twofold and fourfold symmetries. The twofold AMR exhibits a strong dependence on the current orientation, whereas the fourfold term only depends on the magnetization direction in the crystal and is independent of the current orientation. First-principles calculations reveal that the fourfold AMR arises from the relaxation time anisotropy due to the variation of the density of states near the Fermi energy under rotation of the magnetization. This relaxation time anisotropy is a universal property in ferromagnetic metals and determines other anisotropic physical properties that are observable in experiment.

description: The planetary nebula (PN) IC 4997 is one of a few rapidly evolving objects with variable brightness and nebular emission around a hydrogen-deficient star. In this study, we have determined the physical conditions and chemical abundances of this object using the collisionally excited lines (CELs) and optical recombination lines (ORLs) measured from the medium-resolution spectra taken in July 2014 with the FIbre-fed Échelle Spectrograph on the Nordic Optical Telescope at La Palma Observatory. We derived electron densities of $\gtrsim 3 \times 10^4$ cm$^{-3}$ and electron temperatures of $\gtrsim 14,000$ K from CELs, whereas cooler temperatures of $\sim 11,000$ and $\sim 7,000$ K were obtained from helium and heavy element ORLs, respectively. The elemental abundances deduced from CELs point to a metal-poor progenitor with [O/H]$\lesssim-0.75$, whereas the ORL abundances are slightly above the solar metallicity, [O/H]$\approx 0.15$. Our abundance analysis indicates that the abundance discrepancy factors (ADFs$\equiv$ORLs/CELs) of this PN are relatively large: ADF(O$^{2+})\gtrsim 8$ and ADF(N$^{2+})\gtrsim 7$. Further research is needed to find out how the ADFs and variable emissions are formed in this object and whether they are associated with a binary companion or a very late thermal pulse.

First, today’s interpreter training and its development over time is described. Different curricula are compared to each other, including common teaching methods, the material that is being used in the classroom as well as teaching goals. Furthermore, examples are given for well-implemented authentic classes leading to the description of the so-called SIMinar – a class combining theoretical and authentic elements at the University of Vienna. It is explained how re-search data was collected. It is then presented and analysed. Lastly, this thesis evaluates the SIMinar by also stating ways of improving individual elements.

description: The elastic crust of a neutron star fractures repeatedly as it spins down electromagnetically. An idealised, macroscopic model of inhomogeneous crustal failure is presented based on a cellular automaton with nearest-neighbour tectonic interactions involving strain redistribution and thermal dissipation. Predictions are made of the size and waiting-time distributions of failure events, as well as the rate of failure as the star spins down. The last failure event typically occurs when the star spins down to approximately 1% of its birth frequency with implications for rotational glitch activity. Neutron stars are commonly suggested as sources of continuous gravitational waves. The output of the automaton is converted into predictions of the star's mass ellipticity and gravitational wave strain as functions of its age, with implications for future observations with instruments such as the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO), the Virgo interferometer, or the Kamioka Gravitational Wave Detector (KAGRA).

description: The multiplicity of wars and armed conflicts in Africa, coupled with diverse security threats and challenges, has refocused international policy and academic attention on the peace-securitydevelopment nexus. A particular area of concern is what role African regional economic and security organisations can play in conflict stabilisation, conflict management and winning the peace in transition societies in post-Cold War Africa. This article critically explores the nexus of peace, security and development within the framework of the resurgence of economic and security regionalisms with a particular focus on regionalist projects in Africa, including ECOWAS in West Africa, SADC in Southern Africa and IGAD in the Horn of Africa. It explores the role of viable, strong and modern states in driving and strengthening the nexus within the framework of economic and security regionalism in Africa.

description: We present H-band (1.65 $μ$m) and SOFIA HAWC+ 154 $μ$m polarization observations of the low-mass core L483. Our H-band observations reveal a magnetic field that is overwhelmingly in the E-W direction, which is approximately parallel to the bipolar outflow that is observed in scattered IR light and in single-dish $^{12}$CO observations. From our 154 $μ$m data, we infer a $\sim$ 45$^{\circ}$ twist in the magnetic field within the inner 5" (1000 au) of L483. We compare these new observations with published single-dish 350 $μ$m polarimetry and find that the 10,000 au scale H-band data match the smaller scale 350 $μ$m data, indicating that the collapse of L483 is magnetically regulated on these larger scales. We also present high-resolution 1.3 mm ALMA data of L483 which reveals it is a close binary star with a separation of 34 au. The plane of the binary of L483 is observed to be approximately parallel to the twisted field in the inner 1000 au. Comparing this result to the $\sim$ 1000 au protostellar envelope, we find that the envelope is roughly perpendicular to the 1000 au HAWC+ field. Using the data presented, we speculate that L483 initially formed as a wide binary and the companion star migrated to its current position, causing an extreme shift in angular momentum thereby producing the twisted magnetic field morphology observed. More observations are needed to further test this scenario.

description: The great quest for adopting AI-based computation for safety-/mission-critical applications motivates the interest towards methods for assessing the robustness of the application w.r.t. not only its training/tuning but also errors due to faults, in particular soft errors, affecting the underlying hardware. Two strategies exist: architecture-level fault injection and application-level functional error simulation. We present a framework for the reliability analysis of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) via an error simulation engine that exploits a set of validated error models extracted from a detailed fault injection campaign. These error models are defined based on the corruption patterns of the output of the CNN operators induced by faults and bridge the gap between fault injection and error simulation, exploiting the advantages of both approaches. We compared our methodology against SASSIFI for the accuracy of functional error simulation w.r.t. fault injection, and against TensorFI in terms of speedup for the error simulation strategy. Experimental results show that our methodology achieves about 99\% accuracy of the fault effects w.r.t. SASSIFI, and a speedup ranging from 44x up to 63x w.r.t. TensorFI, that only implements a limited set of error models.

description: Introdução: A toxicodependência é uma condição grave, tornando-se mais preocupante quando se associa uma gestação. O ambiente sócio-familiar desfavorável leva habitualmente a gestações de risco. Os recém-nascidos podem desenvolver síndrome de abstinência, sendo importante a sua identificação, tratamento, e posterior seguimento destas crianças.

Objectivos: Conhecer a prevalência de recém-nascidos de mãe toxicodependente num concelho da Área Metropolitana do Porto, e avaliar: morbilidade, terapêutica usada e crescimento e desenvolvimento destas crianças.

Material e métodos: Revisão casuística dos 37 casos de recém-nascidos de mãe toxicodependente, internados desde 1 de Abril de 2000 a 31 de Março de 2006. Definimos mãe toxicodependente a que consumiu, de um modo reiterado, opiáceos e/ou cocaína durante a gravidez.

Resultados: A prevalência encontrada foi de 2,7‰ nados-vivos, com média de 6 casos/ano. Apenas 43% das gestações foram vigiadas. Vinte e um RN (56%) apresentavam baixo peso. Cerca de 71% desenvolveram síndrome de abstinência. Em 70% dos casos foi usado fenobarbital, e nos restantes, solução de morfina (0,4 mg/ml). Até à data, com um tempo médio de acompanhamento de 3 anos, a maioria parece apresentar um crescimento e desenvolvimento adequados.

Conclusões: O consumo de drogas variou ao longo dos anos. Avigilância da gravidez permaneceu insuficiente durante este período. Os RN habitualmente nascem com baixo peso e desenvolvem síndrome de abstinência. O fenobarbital e a morfina controlam a síndrome. Apesar da toxicodependência materna, as crianças parecem apresentar crescimento e desenvolvimento normais. Assim, os clínicos deverão investir no acompanhamento das grávidas toxicodependentes e nos seus filhos.

description: Apresenta-se um caso de varicela numa criança de 5 anos medicada com hidroxizina oral e difenidramina tópica, que no terceiro dia de doença inicia subitamente alterações do comportamento com alucinações visuais e auditivas. Foi internada, tendo suspendido a aplicação tópica de difenidramina, mantendo apenas terapêutica sintomática. Teve alta 24 horas depois clinicamente bem, com remissão completa da sintomatologia. A possível etiologia deste quadro é a intoxicação pela difenidramina, conforme está descrito na literatura. Este caso
alerta os profissionais de saúde para a potencial toxicidade da difenidramina nas crianças com varicela.

description: A malformação adenomatoideia quística pulmonar congénita (MAQPC) é a segunda malformação pulmonar congénita mais comum. É actualmente diagnosticada no período intraute rino ou neonatal precoce, sendo raras as formas de apresentação tardias. Estas deverão ser consideradas no diagnóstico diferencial de pneumonia com imagem radiológica persistente. Descreve-se uma adolescente de dez anos com pneumonia extensa à esquerda e imagens de cavitação. A ecografia e tomografia computorizada (TC) torácicas confirmaram a existência de múltiplas lesões quísticas. A TC com contraste i.v efectuada 6 meses depois permitiu o diagnóstico. Efectuou-se lobectomia inferior esquerda e ressecção da língula. O exame anatomo-patológico confirmou o diagnóstico de MAQP tipo I. Realça-se a necessidade de acompanhamento posterior à cirurgia e a importância de reeducação respiratória.

Lorentz Violation in Neutrino Oscillations using IceCube Atmospheric Neutrino Interferometry
Creators: name: Skrzypek, Barbara
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Lorentz invariance is a fundamental symmetry of spacetime underpinning the Standard Model (SM) and our understanding of high-energy phenomena in particle physics. However, beyond the quantum gravity scale, we expect the SM to be replaced with a more fundamental, covariant theory giving a quantum description of gravity. The effective theory arising from this theory can break Lorentz invariance and thus predicts observables that exhibit low-energy manifestations of Lorentz violation. In particular, these observables could be a subleading contribution to neutrino oscillations and could therefore explain anomalous flavor measurements. The Standard Model Extension (SME) formalism describing such an effective theory predicts terms whose characteristic oscillation length becomes significant at atmospheric neutrino energies accessible by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. Past measurements provide the most stringent bounds on Lorentz-violating operators in the SME. We extend these analyses using ten years of starting and through-going events along with a new energy reconstruction to study nu_{mu} disappearance in the atmospheric neutrino spectrum at IceCube. In this talk, I will present IceCube's current statistical and systematic sensitivities to various dimensions of Lorentz-violating operators in the SME.

description: Há cerca de oitocentos anos, o Sacro Império Romano tinha à frente do seu destino o Imperador Frederico II, um homem curioso, com espírito científico e que emprestou o nome a uma Universidade de Nápoles. Se bem que muito ocupado com estratégias e lutas militares e ideológicas, ainda encontrou tempo para se dedicar à investigação científica. Curioso, quis saber que linguagem adquiriria o ser humano se nunca ouvisse falar. Os métodos da investigação foram simples e claros: retirou das famílias uns quantos recém-nascidos e recomendou que se deveria fornecer-lhes apenas o suporte básico da vida: comer, beber e cuidados mínimos de higiene. De resto nada de mais nada. Que aprendeu? Nada do que esperava: as crianças morreram todas. Um crítico da época concluiu que o trabalho do Imperador foi em vão pois ninguém sobrevive sem mimos. Algo idêntico passou-se (pas sa-se) no fim do século passado, na ex-Jugoslávia, em orfanatos em que as crianças pouco mais que vegetavam. Tomografias cerebrais obtidas por emissão de positrões revelaram múltiplas áreas hipofuncionais, irreversivelmente afectadas.

Optical photon detectors for CUPID using Transition-Edge Sensors
Creators: name: Singh, Vivek
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: CUPID is a proposed next-generation experiment that will search for neutrinoless double-β (0νββ) decay using light-emitting (scintillation or Cherenkov) crystals operated as low-temperature calorimeters close to ∼10mK. It will leverage the crystal's energy loss mechanism to tag particle type by simultaneously measuring thermal and light signals. We will use an auxiliary low-temperature calorimeter to detect light with high photon collection efficiency. The light detectors must have a low energy threshold (~100eV) and good timing resolution to tag α background and 2νββ pile-up events in the region of interest. The light detectors are crucial to reach the CUPID background goal of <1E-4 counts/(keV.kg.yr) for its baseline design. This work will discuss the baseline design of the CUPID light detectors and the R&D status of a future upgrade with transition-edge sensor (TES) based light detectors which may further help suppress the pile-up background.
