Background: A large number of idiosyncratic drug induced liver injury (iDILI) and herb induced liver injury(HILI) cases of variable quality has been published but some are a matter of concern if the cases were not evaluated for causality using a robust causality assessment method (CAM) such as RUCAM (Roussel Uclaf Causality Assessment Method) as diagnostiinjuryc algorithm. The purpose of this analysis was to evaluate the worldwide use of RUCAM in iDILI and HILI cases. Methods: The PubMed database (1993–30 June 2020) was searched for articles by using the following key terms: Roussel Uclaf Causality Assessment Method; RUCAM; Idiosyncratic drug induced liver injury; iDILI; Herb induced liver injury; HILI. Results: Considering reports published worldwide since 1993, our analysis showed the use of RUCAM for causality assessment in 95,885 cases of liver injury including 81,856 cases of idiosyncratic DILI and 14,029 cases of HILI. Among the top countries providing RUCAM based DILI cases were, in decreasing order, China, the US, Germany, Korea, and Italy, with China, Korea, Germany, India, and the US as the top countries for HILI. Conclusion: Since 1993 RUCAM is certainly the most widely used method to assess causality in IDILI and HILI. This should encourage practitioner, experts, and regulatory agencies to use it in order to reinforce their diagnosis and to take sound decisions.
Manipulation of neuronal or muscular activity by optogenetics or other stimuli can be directly linked to the analysis of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) body length. Thus, WormRuler was developed as an open-source video analysis toolbox that offers video processing and data analysis in one application. Utilizing this novel tool, the super red-shifted channelrhodopsin variant, ChrimsonSA, was characterized in C. elegans. Expression and activation of ChrimsonSA in GABAergic motor neurons results in their depolarization and therefore elongation of body length, the extent of which providing information about the strength of neuronal transmission.
"Die Goethe-Universität ist eine weltoffene Werkstatt der Zukunft mitten in Europa. 1914 von BürgerInnen für BürgerInnen gegründet, hat sie seit 2008 als autonome Stiftungsuniversität an diese Tradition wieder angeknüpft. Ihrer wechselvollen Geschichte kritisch verpflichtet, ist sie geleitet von den Ideen der Europäischen Aufklärung, der Demokratie und der Rechtsstaatlichkeit und wendet sich gegen Rassismus, Nationalismus und Antisemitismus. Die Goethe-Universität ist ein Ort argumentativer Auseinandersetzung; Forschung und Lehre stehen in gesellschaftlicher Verantwortung."
Dieses Leitbild strahlt an einem Freitagabend im Januar 2018 zwei Stunden lang über einem voll besetzten, unruhigen Hörsaal. Der groß an die Wand projizierte Text richtet sich an das Publikum einer Veranstaltung der "Frankfurter Bürgeruniversität" mit dem Titel "Diskurskultur im Zwielicht – Wie viel Meinungsfreiheit verträgt die Uni?" Die Atmosphäre ist für eine öffentliche Abendveranstaltung ungewöhnlich angespannt: Menschen mit unterschiedlichen politischen Einstellungen sitzen dicht beieinander, ein paar Burschenschaftler mit Schärpe nehmen die Mitte des Saales ein, es gibt Gerüchte, die AfD habe zu der Veranstaltung mobilisiert. ...
Highlights
• We present a novel alternative to the die-in-the-cup experiment.
• Participants’ payoffs depend on their reported mothers’ birthdays.
• We find that subjects lied to obtain real monetary payoffs.
• The extent of lying is small and insensitive to several design variations.
Abstract
We ask a representative sample of German household decision-makers to enter their mother's birthday, with potential payments depending on the month and the day they state. Thus, we create an incentive to lie. Compared to the die-under-the-cup experiment, our alternative has a lower probability that the income-maximizing outcome is true. Furthermore, it is better suited for online surveys and samples in which gambling is socially stigmatized. We conduct different variations of this game to crystalize design recommendations for researchers interested in our tool. Participants lied to receive higher payoffs, but only with real monetary incentives and only to a relatively small extent. Our results are largely insensitive to several design elements that we vary, such as the probability of being paid and the magnitude of the payoffs.
In the past, the genetically diabetic-obese diabetes/diabetes (db/db) and obese/obese (ob/ob) mouse strains were used to investigate mechanisms of diabetes-impaired wound healing. Here we determined patterns of skin repair in genetically normal C57Bl/6J mice that were fed using a high fat diet (HFD) to induce a diabetes-obesity syndrome. Wound closure was markedly delayed in HFD-fed mice compared to mice which had received a standard chow diet (CD). Impaired wound tissue of HFD mice showed a marked prolongation of wound inflammation. Expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was delayed and associated with the disturbed formation of wound margin epithelia and an impaired angiogenesis in the reduced granulation tissue. Normal wound contraction was retarded and disordered. Wound disorders in obese C57Bl/6J mice were paralleled by a prominent degradation of the inhibitor of NFκB (IκB-α) in the absence of an Akt activation. By contrast to impaired wound conditions in ob/ob mice, late wounds of HFD mice did not develop a chronic inflammatory state and were epithelialized after 11 days of repair. Thus, only genetically obese and diabetic ob/ob mice finally developed chronic wounds and therefore represent a better suited experimental model to investigate diabetes-induced wound healing disorders.

Es ist kaum noch zu ertragen. Immer wieder diese alten Fragen. Warum Aufklärung? Was können wir wissen? Wozu sollen wir das oder jenes wissen? Turfanforschung – schon das Sujet ist dem Normalsterblichen ein Rätsel. Ägyptologie – hier verspricht der Gegenstand wenigstens eine vorstellbare und noch heute erlebbare Exotik. Zwei Wochen Nilfahrt. Aber das alte Schreiben und Denken und Musizieren der Turkmenen? Wer will das kennen lernen? Wem mögen die Kenntnisse über die Turkmenenkultur nutzen? Dann doch lieber gleich Kulturwissenschaft tout court. Das kommt an. Also etwa die Kultur des Riechens, von der Toilette über das Parfum zu den Gerüchen der Städte. Damals und heute. Da kann, zu welchem Behufe auch immer, jeder mitriechen – auch der kultivierte Steuerzahler, der die Kulturwissenschaft bezahlt. Die ebenso zahlenden unkultivierten Bürger interessieren nicht weiter. Oder das sagenhafte Gehör der Wüstenspringmaus. Das ist Grundlagenforschung, bei der sich immerhin ahnen lässt, es könnte à la longue etwas dabei herauskommen, ein neues Hörgerät, nicht für Mäuse, sondern für Menschen. ...

Focused electron beam induced deposition (FEBID) is a direct-write nanofabrication technique able to pattern three-dimensional magnetic nanostructures at resolutions comparable to the characteristic magnetic length scales. FEBID is thus a powerful tool for 3D nanomagnetism which enables unique fundamental studies involving complex 3D geometries, as well as nano-prototyping and specialized applications compatible with low throughputs. In this focused review, we discuss recent developments of this technique for applications in 3D nanomagnetism, namely the substantial progress on FEBID computational methods, and new routes followed to tune the magnetic properties of ferromagnetic FEBID materials. We also review a selection of recent works involving FEBID 3D nanostructures in areas such as scanning probe microscopy sensing, magnetic frustration phenomena, curvilinear magnetism, magnonics and fluxonics, offering a wide perspective of the important role FEBID is likely to have in the coming years in the study of new phenomena involving 3D magnetic nanostructures.

Background: Patient information materials and decision aids are essential tools for helping patients make informed decisions and share in decision-making. The aim of this study was to investigate the quality of the written patient information materials available at general practices in Styria, Austria.
Methods: We asked general practitioners to send in all patient information materials available in their practices and to answer a short questionnaire. We evaluated the materials using the Ensuring Quality Information for Patients (EQIP-36) instrument.
Results: A total of 387 different patient information materials were available for quality assessment. These materials achieved an average score of 39 out of 100. The score was below 50 for 78% of all materials. There was a significant lack of information on the evidence base of recommendations. Only 9 % of the materials provided full disclosure of their evidence sources. We also found that, despite the poor quality of the materials, 89% of general practitioners regularly make active use of them during consultations with patients.
Conclusion: Based on international standards, the quality of patient information materials available at general practices in Styria is poor. The vast majority of the materials are not suitable as a basis for informed decisions by patients. However, most Styrian general practitioners use written patient information materials on a regular basis in their daily clinical practice. Thus, these materials not only fail to help raise the health literacy of the general population, but may actually undermine efforts to enable patients to make shared informed decisions. To increase health literacy, it is necessary to make high quality, evidence-based and easy-to-understand information material available to patients and the public. For this, it may be necessary to set up a centralized and independent clearinghouse.
Die mediane Sternotomie ist in der Kardio-Chirurgie der wichtigste Zugang zum Herzen. Postoperative Wundheilungsstörungen in diesem Bereich sind seltene, jedoch gefürchtete Komplikationen, die zu schwerwiegenden Konsequenzen führen können. Die zunächst einfache oberflächliche Wundheilungsstörung kann sich verkomplizieren und über eine Osteomyelitis des Sternums zu einer Mediastinitis mit eventuell letalen Konsequenzen führen. Aktuell geben unterschiedliche Autoren eine Inzidenz von 1 % – 8 % an. Die Mortalität der Sternumosteitis wird dabei zwischen 10 % und 30 % angegeben. Wird der Pathomechanismus der Erkrankung zu einem Algorithmus zusammengefasst, so kann sich über einen descendierenden Verlauf eine oberflächliche Wundheilungsstörung zu einer Sternumosteitis und schließlich zu einer Mediastinitis entwickeln. Natürlich kann sich die Infektion auch ascendierend ausbreiten. Über eine Infektion des Mediastinums oder des Sternums kann sich eine Infektion über die Weichteile bis an die Körperoberfläche ausdehnen. Der typische Patient, der eine Wundheilungsstörung erleidet ist in aller Regel polymorbide. Besonders bei diesem Patientenkollektiv sind eine kurze Behandlungsdauer und eine schnelle, postoperative Rehabilitation für das Ergebnis vorrangig. Ist der gewählte Therapieplan nicht aggressiv genug, so kommt es häufig zu chronischen Erkrankungen mit Fistelungen und einem konsekutiven Fortschreiten der Infektion in Weichteilen und Knochen. Neben medizinischen Gesichtspunkten kommen auch der wirtschaftliche Aspekte zu tragen. Wiederholte Operationen, lange Liegezeiten auf der Intensivstation und wiederholte sowie langwierige Rehabilitationsphasen sind nur wenige Beispiele der kostenintensiven Therapiebestandteile. Aufgrund der schwer beherrschbaren Infektsituation ist eine konsequent aggressive, definitive und zuverlässige Versorgung der infizierten Wunden von höchster Priorität. Dabei spielt es keine Rolle, ob es sich dabei um Wundheilungsstörungen im Bereich der Haut- und Unterhautweichteile, des Sternums oder des Mediastinums handelt. Zur Behandlung der Wundheilungsstörung nach medianer Sternotomie existieren verschiedene Behandlungsansätze und Therapieoptionen. Diese reichen von einfachen Debridements mit Sekundärvernähungen über Spül-Saug-Drainagen mit Antibiotika versetzen Lösungen bis hin zu Sternumteilresektionen, Vakuumverbänden und komplexen Lappenplastiken. ...
W±-boson production in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 8.16 TeV and Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV
(2022)
The production of the W± bosons measured in p−Pb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon−nucleon collision sNN−−−−√=8.16 TeV and Pb−Pb collisions at sNN−−−−√=5.02 TeV with ALICE at the LHC is presented. The W± bosons are measured via their muonic decay channel, with the muon reconstructed in the pseudorapidity region −4<ημlab<−2.5 with transverse momentum pμT>10 GeV/c. While in Pb−Pb collisions the measurements are performed in the forward (2.5<yμcms<4) rapidity region, in p−Pb collisions, where the centre-of-mass frame is boosted with respect to the laboratory frame, the measurements are performed in the backward (−4.46<yμcms<−2.96) and forward (2.03<yμcms<3.53) rapidity regions. The W− and W+ production cross sections, lepton-charge asymmetry, and nuclear modification factors are evaluated as a function of the muon rapidity. In order to study the production as a function of the p−Pb collision centrality, the production cross sections of the W− and W+ bosons are combined and normalised to the average number of binary nucleon−nucleon collision ⟨Ncoll⟩. In Pb−Pb collisions, the same measurements are presented as a function of the collision centrality. Study of the binary scaling of the W±-boson cross sections in p−Pb and Pb−Pb collisions is also reported. The results are compared with perturbative QCD (pQCD) calculations, with and without nuclear modifications of the Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs), as well as with available data at the LHC. Significant deviations from the theory expectations are found in the two collision systems, indicating that the measurements can provide additional constraints for the determination of nuclear PDF (nPDFs) and in particular of the light-quark distributions.
