    PODCAST KLEINKIRCHEN-PILGERN 6: Der Architekt Markus Vogl zu einer radikalen Öffentlichkeit

    No full text
    <p>Privatheit wird heute gut geschützt, so der Stuttgarter Architekt Markus Vogl, aber wer kümmert sich um die öffentlichen Räume? Im Buch <a href="https://www.m-books.eu/store/taeglich/">“täglich”</a>, herausgeben mit seiner Kollegin Martina Bau, wird ein solch radikal öffentlicher Ort entworfen. Auch Kirchen könnten das sein, so Vogl im Gespräch mit moderneREGIONAL. Wenn man nur die Schwellen zu reduzieren und zugleich das Besondere dieser Räume zu bewahren wüsste.

    Artificial intelligence in local government: enabling artificial intelligence for good governance in UK local authorities

    No full text
    In this, OxCAIGG’s second major research output of the year, author Thomas Vogl explores the use of artificial intelligence by UK local authorities. While there have been a number of successful projects related to back-office automation, predictive analytics for decision support, or the use of chatbots for interactions with resident, Vogl finds that governments face important practical challenges in successfully adopting AI. This briefing note identifies three key challenges and three key enablers that local authorities face when working with AI

Methods: Using the 2006 round of Health Survey for England data (n = 13,241), this paper aims to examine the impact of smoking status on health-related quality of life in English population. Depending upon the nature of the EQ-5D data (i.e. tariff or domains), linear or logistic regression models were fitted to control for biology, clinical conditions, socio-economic background and lifestyle factors that an individual may have regardless of their smoking status. Age- and gender-specific predicted values according to smoking status are offered as the potential 'utility' values to be used in future economic evaluation models. Results: The observed difference of 0.1100 in EQ-5D scores between never-smokers (0.8839) and heavy-smokers (0.7739) reduced to 0.0516 after adjusting for biological, clinical, lifestyle and socioeconomic conditions. Heavy-smokers, when compared with never-smokers, were significantly more likely to report some/severe problems in all five domains - mobility (67%), self-care (70%), usual activity (42%), pain/discomfort (46%) and anxiety/depression (86%) -. 'Utility' values by age and gender for each category of smoking are provided to be used in the future economic evaluations. Conclusion: Smoking is significantly and negatively associated with health-related quality of life in English general population and the magnitude of this association is determined by the number of cigarettes smoked. The varying degree of this association, captured through instruments such as EQ-5D, may need to be fed into the design of future economic evaluations where the intervention being evaluated affects (e.g. tobacco control) or is affected (e.g. treatment for lung cancer) by individual's (or patients') smoking status

    Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Liver Disease Technical Approach, Diagnostic Imaging of Liver Neoplasms, Focus on a New Superparamagnetic Contrast Agent

    No full text
    Early and accurate diagnosis forms the basis for appropriate and successful treatment of patients with liver tumours. Pre- and post-therapeutic imaging techniques, such as ultrasound, CT, and MRI imaging - unenhanced as well as contrast-enhanced - are used to detect liver tumours and differentiate between malignant and benign lesions. Once a lesion is detected, the ratio of involved versus non-involved liver segments must be assessed. Preoperative imaging in patients with hepatocellular carcinomas and liver metastases directly influences further therapeutic considerations, e.g., resection, liver transplantation, or regional therapeutic procedures, such as transcatheter arterial infusion therapy for arterial embolization, percutaneous ethanol instillation, chemotherapy, laser or radio frequency. Iron oxide-enhanced MRI as a non-invasive technique provides a high preoperative diagnostic efficacy for diagnosis of liver disorders. Superparamagnetic iron oxide particles are absorbed by the Kupffer cells of normal liver parenchyma and by tumors consisting of RES. This results in a signal change in MR images and various types of characteristic features of tissues. Resovist is a new iron oxide contrast agent that can be applied via intravenous bolus injection. It allows dynamic iron oxide-enhanced imaging for the first time. In this book, both the basic principles and the latest results in the use of contrast-enhanced MRI of the liver are presented. This work will allow the reader to understand and use superparamagnetic contrast agents for evaluating various diseases of the liver

    Teachers as foreign Language Makers : on standard language ideology, authenticity and language expertise

    No full text
    The aim of this article is twofold: first, we apply the concept of “Language Making” – which is introduced in this thematic issue – to the domain of foreign language learning and teaching. More specifically, we investigate the role of teachers, as well as other social actors in the domain of foreign language education, in the making of foreign languages, i.e., their role in selecting varieties and forms that they deem appropriate to be learned. We assess how they justify their selections and which language ideologies inform their choices. A specific focus is on how these “foreign Language Makers” construe their linguistic expertise: how do they argue for the legitimacy of their “foreign Language Making”? Second, we argue that present day conceptions of the “ideal language teacher” have their roots in the past. Therefore, we include two case studies: our first case study zooms in on the Early Modern period and draws on introductions to foreign language textbooks from the 16th and 17th centuries. Our main sources are the multilingual textbooks of the Colloquia, et dictionariolum as well as the work of Gerard De Vivre, a language teacher and textbook author from Ghent who published French language textbooks for Dutch- and German-speaking learners in the second half of the 16th century. The second case study focuses on present-day teachers who teach Dutch as a foreign language at universities outside of the Dutch-speaking language area. For this analysis, we make use of data from qualitative interviews with 20 teachers, collected in 2015. We analyse, contrast and compare these cases, thereby taking into account the dynamics of socio-political and language ideological changes of the past centuries

    Sequence alignment of fourfold degenerate sites of the 3L chromosome arm

    We analyzed genome-wide fourfold degenerate sites from an African (Malawi) D. melanogaster population (Release 1.0), provided by the Drosophila Population Genomics Project (http://www.dpgp.org/; Langley et al., 2012). To obtain outgroup sequences, we downloaded (http://genome.ucsc.edu/ ) aligned single genome-wide sequences of D. simulans, D. sechellia, D. erecta and D. yakuba (Begun et al., 2007; Clark et al., 2007) (Release 5), and combined them with the D. melanogaster sequences for all autosomes. We wrote Python and R scripts to extract the data according to the annotation of the D. melanogaster genome reference file (Release 5.31) from Flybase and to perform the analyses. We compared the data of fourfold degenerate sites to short introns (bases 8 to 30 of introns < 66 bp) from the same dataset (doi:10.5061/dryad.t201q). A detailed description of short introns can be seen in Clemente and Vogl (2012)
