description: The hot water (HW) extraction of Norway spruce (Picea abies [Karst.]) delivers condensed tannins and considerable amounts of other compounds. Yield and composition of the HW extracts were investigated as a function of natural weathering for up to 15 months. Total phenol monomers and oligomers were detected by Folin-Ciocaltau assay after fractionation by solid phase extraction (SPE). Procyanidins (PC) were determined by HPLC-UV after acid thiolysis and carbohydrates by HPLC combined with acid hydrolysis. Topochemistry of the bark before and after extraction was investigated by UV- microspectrometry (UMSP) and non-extractable PC analyzed by direct thiolysis on the bark. The influence of the parameters on the yield and composition of the extracts were evaluated, such as the extraction temperature, time and the addition of sodium sulfate and urea. Prolonged weathering resulted in a considerable decrease of the total extraction yield, partly because of leaching of phenolic monomers, mono- and oligosaccharides. The yield of phenolic oligomers also decreased at a moderate rate, while the yield of polysaccharides (pectins) was almost stable. Nonextractable and non-leachable compounds deposited in the cell lumens represent the majority of the phenolic extractives in spruce bark. Sequential extractions performed at increasing temperature proved to be a suitable method for the recovery of tannin-rich extracts.

Social connectivity

description: Purpose: In the context of rural development, the question how farmers are interconnected with local rural communities is crucial, as farmers historically have played a key role in rural areas, always shaped by the cultural-systemic context in which they acted. The purpose of this paper is to explore this connection in North-East (NE) Germany and Switzerland, two countries whose agricultural systems can be seen as diametrically opposed to each other with respect to their structure. Design/methodology/approach: The authors conducted a survey on NE German and Swiss farmers to assess the connectivity between farms and rural communities in terms of the farm managers’ perceptions of their social networks, social support, sense of belonging, and active involvement in organizations. Findings: The results show commonalities and differences between both study regions. Smaller farms are characterized by strongly locally based networks and a higher sense of community belonging, whereas larger farms rather have networks with strong ties outside the local dimension. Moreover, farmers’ local origin and farm diversification are positively associated with strengthening the connection between farms and local communities. Off-farm work is a means for this connection only in NE Germany. Originality/value: This paper contributes to the discussion about adverse effects of farming scale and corporate farming on community well-being by simultaneously delivering insights into two structurally different agricultural systems. At the same time the approach allows for a comparison between the systems.

description: Relative age refers to age differences between children in the same selection year. The present study investigated the prevalence of relative age effects (RAEs) at the Grand Prix Migros (GPM), which is the most popular alpine skiing race for children aged 7 to 14 years in Europe. In total, 17,992 Swiss junior alpine skiers, separated into female skiers (n = 7,227) and male skiers (n = 10,765), were evaluated in the 2010, 2011, and 2012 races. Chi-square analyses revealed no RAEs (p > 0.05) for the entire group of finishers in the qualification race for females in the Under U-8 to U-13 categories (n = 7,010) and all males (n = 10,410). Significant inverse RAEs were detected in the qualification race among female skiers in the U-14 and U-15 age categories (p < 0.01; odds ratio OR = 0.79; 95% confidence interval (CI) [0.64–0.98], and among disqualified male skiers (p < 0.01; OR = 0.54; [CI, 0.40–0.74]. However, significant RAEs were found for the entire group of both female and male skiers who qualified for the final race (p < 0.01; OR = 1.49; [CI, 1.28–1.73] of females, respectively OR = 2.18; [CI, 1.87–2.53] of males). RAEs were additionally apparent in all age categories of female and male finalists. The GPM is apparently influenced by RAEs, which may be an initial step towards RAEs in youth sports and may lead to an unequal participation in Swiss skiing.

Um dies vermehrt zu ermöglichen, benötigt es neben Gesundheitsfachpersonen, die Betroffene und ihre Angehörigen begleiten, auch Bildungsangebote zur Stärkung der Ressourcen im Umgang mit dem Lebensende. Im Rahmen des Projektes «Compassionate City Lab der Berner Bevölkerung» wurden Erfahrungen im Umgang mit dem Lebensende gesammelt und veröffentlicht sowie ein Kursangebot zur gesundheitlichen Vorausplanung für Menschen im dritten Lebensalter und betreuende Angehörige entwickelt. Das Projekt ist finanziert von Gesundheitsförderung Schweiz und getragen von einer Partnerschaft zwischen Berner Hochschulen und spezialisierten Institutionen der Palliative Care, der Grundversorgung, des Gemeinwesens sowie Ehrenamtlichen in der Stadt Bern und im Berner Oberland.
description: People at the end of life often wish to remain at home for as long as possible. To make this possible to a greater extent, not only health professionals who accompany those affected and their relatives are needed, but also educational programmes to strengthen health literacy at the end of life. Within the framework of the project “Compassionate City Lab of the Bernese People”, experiences in dealing with the end of life were collected and published, and a course on advance care planning for elderly people was developed. The project is funded by Health Promotion Switzerland and supported by a partnership between Bernese institutions of higher education, specialised palliative care and primary care, the community, and volunteers in the city of Bern and the Bernese Oberland.

Welte vs. Audio. Chopins vielbesprochenes Nocturne Fis-Dur op. 15/2 im intermedialen Vergleich

description: Heutzutage sind die allermeisten bedeutenden akustischen Aufnahmen ab etwa 1920 gut zugänglich. Es ist ein Leichtes, sich vom Spiel eines Pianisten anhand seiner Einspielungen ein scheinbar präzises Bild zu machen. Die «unhörbare Generation» der Virtuosen, die vor der Jahrhundertwende starben, wie die Überväter Franz Liszt, Anton Rubinstein und Hans von Bülow, haben einen umso legendäreren Ruf. Aber auch die Generation ihrer Schüler, Freunde und Gegenspieler ist teilweise klanglich defizitär dokumentiert; oft gibt es gar keine (Bernhard Stavenhagen, Claude Debussy) oder nur wenige schlechte akustische Aufnahmen, wie bei Eugène D’Albert oder Teresa Carreño. Das Aufnahmenrepertoire des Welte-Systems beinhaltet viele bedeutende und umfangreiche Aufnahmen dieser Übergangsgeneration. Bezogen auf das Beispiel von Chopins Nocturne lässt sich bestätigen, dass beide Systeme, Welte und Audio, für die Bedürfnisse der Interpretationsforschung brauchbare Resultate liefern. Der intermediale Vergleich erlaubt darüber hinaus durch die technischen und zeitlichen Gegebenheiten gegenseitige quellenkritische und aufführungspraktische Kontextualisierung.

Remarks
Tenagomysis macropsis was established on the basis of specimens collected from northern New Zealand by Tattersall (1923). This species had not since been recorded.
The Timaru specimens agree with the original description except for the carpopropodus of the eighth thoracopod. In the original description the distal subsegment of the carpopropodus is shorter than the middle subsegment, whereas it is twice as long as the middle subsegment in the present specimens (Fig. 6 G).
The mouthparts of T. macropsis are first illustrated here (Fig. 6 C–E).
The female pleopods of T. macropsis differ from those of T. longisquama in that they are slender and gradually narrowed distally (Fig. 6 J) as opposed to the knife­shaped pleopods of T. longisquama (Fig. 3E–I).

Seram Flying Fox
Pteropus ocularis
French: Roussette de Céram / German: Seram-Flughund / Spanish: Zorro volador de Ceram
Other common names: Ceram Fruit Bat, Moluccan Spectacled Flying Fox
Taxonomy. Pteropus ocularis Peters, 1867,
“Ceram [= Seram Island],” Moluccas, Indonesia.
Pteropus ocularis is in the ornatus species group. Monotypic.
Distribution. Endemic to CC Moluccas (Buru, Ambon, and Seram Is).
Descriptive notes. Head-body 195 mm (tailless), ear 26 mm, hindfoot 47 mm, forearm 132-145 mm; weight 200-400 g. Greatest lengths of skulls are 59-63 mm and tibias 60 mm. The Seram Flying Fox is dark colored, with light mantle, small skull, and short and narrow muzzle. Dentition and overall size are similar to those of the Spectacled Flying Fox (P. conspicillatus), but it is considerably smaller in size. Ears are short and have more rounded tips than those of the Spectacled Flying Fox;it is generally black all over front and back, with yellow-brown to buffy mantle that extends around sides of neck. Eyes are surrounded by russet to cinnamon spectacles, which are less conspicuous than in the Spectacled Flying Fox. Uropatagium is reduced; calcar is small. Skull is typical pteropine but smaller than in the Spectacled Flying Fox.
Habitat. Old-growth forests and recently mangrove forests.
Food and Feeding. No information.
Breeding. No information.
Activity patterns. The Seram Flying Fox is nocturnal.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. The Seram Flying Fox is primarily solitary and does not form large colonies.
Status and Conservation. CITES Appendix II. Classified as Vulnerable on The IUCN Red List. The Seram Flying Fox has declined 30% overthree generations. Hunting and habitat loss have madeit relatively rare, and reduction of available habitat will further threaten it. [and conversion from deforestation, mining, oil exploration, and agroforestry resulted in loss of one-half oftotal forest coverage. It occurs in Manusela National Park on Seram, but habitat quality is in decline due to illegal logging. No protected area exists on Buru, and it is likely extinct on Ambon, which is already mostly developed and deforested.

Remarks
Tenagomysis producta has only been previously recorded from the Bay of Islands, northern New Zealand (Tattersall 1923).
The material reported here agrees with the original description except for the armature of the uropodal endopod, which is armed with four to eight spines arranged irregularly on the ventral surface of the basal part in addition to the spines on the mesial ventral margin (Fig. 7 G); in the original description the existence of these spines was not noted, possibly having been overlooked.
All the pleopods of the present female specimens are knife­shaped, as are those of T. longisquama. The apex is rounded however.

description: Zusammenfassung Diese Studie hat zum Ziel, die verschiedenen Frühstücksmuster der Schweizer Bevölkerung zu ermitteln und ihren Zusammenhang mit der Gesamtqualität der Ernährung zu analysieren. Die Teilnehmenden der Nationalen Ernährungserhebung «menuCH» (N = 2057; 18 bis 75 Jahre) wurden auf der Grundlage von zwei 24-Stunden-Erinnerungsprotokollen und einem Fragebogen über die Ernährungsgewohnheiten in zwei Gruppen eingeteilt, je nachdem, ob sie regelmässig oder nicht regelmässig frühstücken. Bei den Personen, die regelmässig ein Frühstück einnehmen, wurden Frühstücksmuster auf der Grundlage des Verzehrs von 22 Lebensmittelgruppen mithilfe einer Hauptkomponentenanalyse definiert. Der Zusammenhang mit der Gesamtqualität der Ernährung, die anhand des Alternate Healthy Eating Index (AHEI, hoher Wert = gute Qualität) Schweizer Ernährungsbulletin 2019 | Welche Arten von Frühstück werden in der Schweiz eingenommen? | 4 festgelegt wurde, wurde durch lineare Regression analysiert. 34,8 % der Teilnehmenden nehmen kein regelmässiges Frühstück ein. Bei den Personen, die regelmässig frühstücken, wurden vier Frühstücksmuster ermittelt: – « Brot» (Weissbrot, Butter und gezuckerter Brotaufstrich; 18,7 %); – « Getreide mit Zucker» (gezuckerte Frühstückscerealien; 15,0 %); – « salzig» (Wurstwaren und Käse; 13,7 %); und – « Birchermüesli» (ungezuckerte Getreideflocken, Joghurt, Nüsse und Früchte; 17,8 %). Die Einnahme eines Frühstücks des Typs «Birchermüesli» wird mit einem um 10,8 Punkte höheren AHEI (von insgesamt 110 Punkten) bewertet als der Verzehr eines Frühstücks des Typs «Brot».

description: Aims: Impact activities like running are known to elicit symptoms of stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The aim of this study was to investigate and compare pelvic floor muscle activity in continent and SUI women during running at three different speeds and thereby elucidate contraction characteristics of the pelvic floor during impact. Methods: Surface electromyographic (EMG) activity from the pelvic floor muscles during running on a treadmill was recorded with a tripolar vaginal probe. EMG was measured during 10 s at the speeds 7, 11, and 15 km/h. Data from 30 ms before to 150 ms after heel-strike were parameterised to time intervals of 30 ms. The reference value set as 100% for EMG normalisation was calculated as the mean of the peak values of two maximum voluntary contractions. Results: No statistically significant differences between continent and incontinent subjects could be found for the EMG values for all time intervals. Mean EMG preactivity and reflex activity increased significantly with speed (P < 0.05). Mean EMGactivity during running was significantly above PFM onset activation. Values in women with SUI exceeded 100 %MVC for all time intervals at the highest speed of 15 km/h. Conclusions: Running appears to trigger pre-activation before and reflex-activation after heel-strike and should therefore not only be regarded with caution due to its SUI related effects. Running training stimuli may serve as a beneficial complement to a PFM training rationale, leading to reflex activity of the pelvic floor muscles, when used in sense of power training methodology.

description: On vault in artistic gymnastics, a high run-up speed is thought to be important when performing difficult vaults. To test this assumption in a large cohort of elite athletes, we calculated the correlations between the run-up speed, scores, height and length of flight for handspring-, Tsukahara- and Yurchenko-style vaults and compared the performances of male and female elite and junior athletes (n = 407) during the 2016 European Championships. In females, run-up speed correlated significantly with the difficulty (D-) score and height of flight for all vaulting styles (r ≤ 0.80). In males, run-up speed correlated significantly with the D-score, height and length of flight of Tsukahara (r ≤ 0.69) and Yurchenko vaults only (r ≤ 0.65). Males reached 8-9% higher run-up speeds performing handspring and Tsukahara vaults than did females, but similar run-up speeds performing Yurchenko vaults. Elite females achieved higher run-up speeds than junior females performing Yurchenko vaults. Elite males displayed higher run-up speeds than junior males performing handspring and Tsukahara vaults. We conclude that, in females, more difficult vaults require higher run-up speeds than vaults with lower D-scores and thus, within the measured range of speeds, the faster the run-up, the better, regardless of vaulting style. Males, on the other hand, may not need to exhaust their sprinting capacity, even for the most difficult vaults. Finally, the knowledge of the required run-up speed for each vault helps coaches to estimate each athlete's potential and/or to focus the training on developing the required physical qualities.

NIWA 3957: 1 ɗ (broken, 6.2 mm from tip of rostrum to posterior end of last abdominal somite), stn NE071, 41°25.6´S 173°27.6´E, Nelson, 24 Jan. 2002, 7 m, epibenthic sled. Remarks
This unidentified specimen lacks the uropods and the telson. However, it is readily distinguished from other species of the genus, except for T. novaezealandiae Thomson, 1900, by the armature of the fourth pleopod (Fig. 8 F, G).
The fourth male pleopod of T. novaezealandiae has not been described (Thomson 1900, Tattersall 1923). The present specimen can be distinguished from T. novaezealandiae by the rounded anterolateral corner of the carapace, which is pointed in T. novaezealandiae.
This unidentified specimen is probably a new species, but as the specimen is not fully intact, it is recorded as Tenagomysis sp. in the present study.

description: Abstract The purpose of this study was to compare the validity and output of the biaxial ActiGraph GT1M and the triaxial GT3X (ActiGraph, LLC, Pensacola, FL, USA) accelerometer in 5- to 9-year-old children. Thirty-two children wore the two monitors while their energy expenditure was measured with indirect calorimetry. They performed four locomotor and four play activities in an exercise laboratory and were further measured during 12 minutes of a sports lesson. Validity evidence in relation to indirect calorimetry was examined with linear regression equations applied to the laboratory data. During the sports lessons predicted energy expenditure according to the regression equations was compared to measured energy expenditure with the Wilcoxon-signed rank test and the Spearman correlation. To compare the output, agreement between counts of the two monitors during the laboratory activities was assessed with Bland-Altman plots. The evidence of validity was similar for both monitors. Agreement between the output of the two monitors was good for vertical counts (mean bias = -14 ± 22 counts) but not for horizontal counts (-17 ± 32 counts). The current results indicate that the two accelerometer models are able to estimate energy expenditure of a range of physical activities equally well in young children. However, they show output differences for movement in the horizontal direction

description: This research investigates the level of agreement between instructors and their students regarding analytical rubrics within a creative design context. Current literature reports some tension and balance between users’ perspectives regarding key characteristics of rubrics which affects the learning process. Therefore, this paper compares instructors’ and students’ views regarding a) usability, b) design, and c) management of rubrics in three design programs. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected through questionnaires, results were presented as mean scores and relative importance rates (RII%), then ranked and compared. Findings showed more disagreement than agreement between the two user groups in several aspects regarding rubrics’ 1) perceived comprehension, 2) effectiveness, and 3) support of creative design learning. A noticeable gap was found in views about the functions of a rubric; while instructors recognized its evaluative role, students appreciated its reflective role in supporting meta-cognitive learning. Assessing design creativity held contradicting views, while more areas of agreement were found in terms of the rubrics’ design and perceived comprehension. Finally, this research highlights several pedagogical approaches to reduce perception gaps and create a shared understanding of the rubrics’ roles in supporting studio-based design learning, hence, optimizing its educational value to effectively assess creative design outcomes.

patient action plan

description: Background: Management and treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD) are complex and therefore bear the risk of therapeutic failure. Individualised patient action plans for patients and for caregivers have been shown to improve AD management, eczema monitoring and therapy adherence. Little is known about the use of patient action plans in the adult setting. Objectives: This project aimed at implementing a patient action plan to improve eczema management and evaluating its effects on disease severity and patient‐related outcomes. Methods: This quality improvement project had a pretest–posttest design and evaluated AD severity and patient‐related outcomes after implementing a patient action plan. A convenience sample of 20 adult patients with AD was included. Socio‐demographic, diagnostic and clinical variables were collected from the electronic health records. Trained staff assessed AD severity using SCORing Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) and person‐centred dermatology selfcare index (PeDeSI‐G) pre as well as 1‐month postintervention. Patients completed dermatology life quality index (DLQI) and patient benefit index (PBI). For comparison of SCORAD, DLQI, PeDeSI‐G, paired t‐test was applied. PBI was presented using descriptive statistics. Results: Upon intervention, a significant decrease of disease severity (p < 0.0001), in parallel with a significant decrease of DLQI (p < 0.001) and PeDeSI‐G (p < 0.0001) was observed. A PBI ≥ 1 was reached in 95% of participants (mean 2.73; SD 0.9). Conclusions: Our findings confirm the importance of providing patient action plans to AD patients to achieve best treatment results. Based on our experience, we plan to modify the action plan by including both topical and systemic therapies, and to translate it into several languages.

description: This paper contributes to the field of regional poverty literature by using linked tax data to examine poverty in a large district in Switzerland with one million inhabitants and rural and urban parts. We measure poverty using income and asset-based approaches. Our regional comparison of the social structure of the poor shows that poor people in rural areas are more likely to be of retirement age. Among the workforce, the share of poor is larger for those who work in agriculture compared to those working in industry or the service sector. In urban areas, the poor are more often freelancers and people of foreign origin. Despite where they live, people with little education, single parents, and people working in gastronomy/tourism are disproportionately often poor. We then use a random forest based variable importance assessment to clarify whether the importance of poverty risks factors differs in urban and rural locations. It shows little regional differences among the major poverty risk factors, and it demonstrates that the opportunity structure, like density of workplaces or aggravated access in mountain areas, seem to be of minor importance compared to risk factors that relate to the immediate social situation.
