Datenschutzgerechter Einsatz von Generativer KI bei besonders schützenswerten Personendaten
Die rasante Verbreitung von Generativer KI stellte Organisationen wie die Gewerkschaft Unia, die täglich mit besonders schützenswerten Personendaten arbeiten, vor grosse Herausforderungen. Es fehlte an klaren Prozessen, um die Risiken von KI-Projekten fundiert zu bewerten. Dies führte zur Gefahr einer unkontrollierten Nutzung öffentlicher Tools durch Mitarbeitende («Schatten-IT»), was erhebliche rechtliche Risiken barg und die zentrale Problemstellung dieser, im Auftrag der Unia erstellten, Arbeit bildete

Electrocochleography latency. correlation with electrode position during cochlear implantation
Objectives:
Cochlear implant (CI) candidates increasingly exhibit some degree of residual hearing, which should be preserved despite the implantation. Today, cochlear health is monitored during CI surgery by tracking the cochlear microphonic (CM) amplitude from intracochlear electrocochleography (ECochG) measurements. However, recent studies indicate that the insertion depth of the measuring electrode must be considered to accurately interpret these signals. The acoustic path from the cochlear base to the apex induces excitation delays in deeper regions, which should be reflected in the CM measurements. In this study, we analyzed the potential of cochlear microphonic latency (CML) as an objective method for continuously tracking CI electrode position during cochlear implantation. In addition, we examined whether CML can be associated with residual hearing

Extraction of Table Information from Annual Reports Supported by CNN and Transformer-Based Approaches
Financial tables often feature multi-level headers, grouped categories, and implicit semantics that stretch the limits of current extraction pipelines. Existing literature largely focuses on synthetic or academic datasets, leaving a methodological gap between model development and real-world application. This thesis evaluates TFLOP, a state-of-the-art table extraction model, on a curated set of native PDF annual reports from Swiss companies
Barriers and facilitators to the use of virtual wards: a systematic review of the qualitative evidence
Background
Virtual wards offer an alternative to traditional inpatient care, delivering acute care, monitoring, and treatment at home to prevent hospital admissions or facilitate early discharge. The aim of our qualitative systematic review was to understand the barriers to and facilitators for the successful implementation and sustainability of virtual wards from the perspective of any involved stakeholder, using behavioural change models.
Methods
The review protocol was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42024519627). The following databases were searched: Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Academic Search Complete. A three-stage deductive content analysis, as recommended for applying the COM-B (Capability, Opportunity, and Motivation–Behaviour) model and TDF (Theoretical Domains Framework) to qualitative data, was conducted to categorize and map the barriers and facilitators to virtual wards identified in the included studies, using the TDF domains as a guiding framework.
Results
Searches initially identified 7489 articles. Sixteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Common barriers for patients and family members were a lack of language skills, technical skills, and medical knowledge. Caregivers were also required to take on significant medical responsibilities, while patients had to remain self-motivated. The introduction of appropriate training was seen as a valuable facilitator. Healthcare providers faced numerous technological barriers that had the potential to affect care delivery. Strong leadership was an essential facilitator for effective care coordination in virtual wards. From a healthcare system perspective, the availability of resources — such as staffing, equipment, and funding —along with standardized protocols, is crucial for the successful implementation of virtual wards.
Conclusions
Virtual wards can ease hospital capacity issues and support the delivery of safe and effective care in patients’ own homes. However, to realize this potential, we must understand the barriers to, and facilitators of, the use and successful implementation of virtual wards for patients, carers, and healthcare professionals. This understanding will allow targeted strategies and interventions to be developed to support both the delivery and receipt of care on virtual wards
Ceres – the urban garden. Ein aeroponisches Planzenregal
«Ceres» ist ein modulares, aeroponisches Urban-Gardening-System für Innenräume, bei dem die Wurzeln einer Pflanze mit Wasser und darin gelösten Nährstoffen benetzt werden. Es ermöglicht erdloses, wassersparendes Gärtnern mit minimalem Aufwand. Sensoren steuern Bewässerung und Nährstoffe.

Men's Health. Eine ästhetische Operation der Ideologiekritik
Diese Arbeit untersucht das emanzipatorische Potenzial der künstlerischen Ideologiekritik des Men’s Health Magazins und seiner Ideologien vom gesunden Mannsein. Dabei wird aus dem Prozess und seiner Wirkung auf das forschende Subjekt reflektiert, wie die Kritik eines Objekts in Vermittlungssituationen gestaltet werden könnte, um auch in polarisierten Konfliktfeldern ihre Potenziale zu entfalten.https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11806/data/NextGen25-vk4ndla
