    Abstract: 〈 b 〉 〈 i 〉 Introduction: 〈 /i 〉 〈 /b 〉 The aim of the study is to compare length of hospital stay, transfusion rates, and re-intervention rates during hospitalization for transurethral resection of the prostate (TUR-P), open prostatectomy (OP), and laser therapy (LT) for surgical treatment of benign prostatic obstruction (BPO). 〈 b 〉 〈 i 〉 Methods: 〈 /i 〉 〈 /b 〉 URO-Cert is an organization, in which clinical data of prostatic diseases from 2 university, 19 public, and 3 private hospitals and 270 office-based urologists are collected in order to document treatment quality. Data on diagnostics, therapy, and course of disease are recorded web based. The analysis includes datasets from 2005 to 2017. 〈 b 〉 〈 i 〉 Results: 〈 /i 〉 〈 /b 〉 Of 10,420 patients, 8,389 were treated with TUR-P, 1,334 with OP, and 697 with LT. Median length of hospital stay was 6 days (IQR: 4–7) for TUR-P, 9 days (IQR: 7–11) for OP, and 5 days (IQR: 4–6) for LT ( 〈 i 〉 p 〈 /i 〉 & #x3c; 0.001). Risk for a hospital stay ≥7 days was higher for OP versus TUR-P (OR: 7.25; 95% CI = 6.27–8.36; 〈 i 〉 p 〈 /i 〉 & #x3c; 0.001) and LT (OR: 17.89; 95% CI = 14.12–22.65; 〈 i 〉 p 〈 /i 〉 & #x3c; 0.001) and higher for TUR-P versus LT (OR: 2.47; 95% CI = 2.03–3.01; 〈 i 〉 p 〈 /i 〉 & #x3c; 0.001). OP had a significantly higher risk for transfusions than TUR-P (OR: 2.44; 95% CI = 1.74–3.41; 〈 i 〉 p 〈 /i 〉 & #x3c; 0.001) and LT (OR: 3.32; 95% CI = 1.56–7.01; 〈 i 〉 p 〈 /i 〉 & #x3c; 0.001). Transfusion rates were not significantly different between TUR-P and LT (OR: 1.36; 95% CI = 0.66–2.79; 〈 i 〉 p 〈 /i 〉 = 0.51). Risk of re-intervention was not different between all 3 approaches. 〈 b 〉 〈 i 〉 Conclusion: 〈 /i 〉 〈 /b 〉 OP was associated with higher transfusion rates and longer hospital stay than TUR-P and LT. Risk of transfusion was not different between TUR-P and LT, but TUR-P was inferior to LT concerning length of hospital stay. Re-intervention rates during hospitalization did not differ between the groups.

    Abstract: The transformation of functional proteins into amyloidic plaques is responsible for the impairment of neurological functions in patients fallen victim to debilitating neurological conditions like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's diseases. The nucleating role of amyloid beta (A β 1‐40 ) peptide into amyloids is well established. Herein, lipid hybrid‐vesicles are generated with glycerol/cholesterol‐bearing polymers aiming to alter the nucleation process and modulate the early phases of A β 1‐40 fibrillation. Hybrid‐vesicles (±100 nm) are prepared by incorporating variable amounts of cholesterol‐/glycerol‐conjugated poly(di(ethylene glycol) m acrylates) n polymers into 1,2‐dioleoyl‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phosphocholine (DOPC) membranes. The in vitro fibrillation kinetics coupled to transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is employed to investigate the role of hybrid‐vesicles on A β 1‐40 fibrillation without destroying the vesicular membrane. Both polymers, when embedded in hybrid‐vesicles (up to 20%) significantly prolonged the fibrillation lag phase (t lag ) compared to a small acceleration in the presence of DOPC vesicles, irrespective of the amount of polymers inside the hybrid‐vesicles. Along with this notable retardation effect, a morphological transformation of the amyloid's secondary structures to amorphous aggregates or the absence of fibrillar structures when interacting with the hybrid‐vesicles is confirmed by TEM and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy.

    Abstract: 本文分析和比较了图尔库(芬兰)、格罗宁根(荷兰)、罗斯托克和波茨坦(均位于德国)这几个领先城市的气候政策与转型路径。我们的研究将国际比较和国家比较相结合,前者聚焦于三个国家的城市,后者聚焦于两个德国城市。该研究设计基于“国家情境很重要”这一假设。我们论证认为,在相类似的匹配城市之间进行规模化的本地实验的可能性特别高。这些城市有能力通过匹配的方式在国内和国际间相互学习。这四个城市都是几乎一样大的中等规模城市,位于北欧和欧洲大陆的发达民主国家。此外,这四个城市在各自国家内都获得了气候政策领域先行者的声誉。第一,我们聚焦于比较四个城市,并识别各自气候政策的优势和劣势。第二,我们评估了本地实验的规模化潜力,特别是制度和组织创新、综合方法和参与式方法、以及领导力。第三,我们分析了具有相同国家情境的两个德国城市之间的实际规模化。我们从更广泛的方面探究了匹配城市如何从本地先行者发展为国际公认的领导者,后者有能力在国内和国际上推广成功的本地倡议。

    Abstract: Abstract. Research into local climate adaptation has often focused on highly visible, intentional public policies that seek to improve resilience to climate threats or how societal actors have reacted to changing climatic conditions. We argue that these approaches neglect a range of unintentional and/or hidden initiatives, which deliver implicit and/or hitherto under-appreciated adaptation benefits. We present an analytical framework to organise studies of these under-explored initiatives, which advances social scientific conceptualisations of what local climate adaptation consists of and provides a heuristic for selecting appropriate methods of enquiry to examine it. Drawing on empirical research into the adaptation activities of municipalities and small businesses in Germany, we apply this framework to expand our knowledge of how communities are building climate resilience, gain a better understanding of the full range of adaptation activities within individual localities, and pose questions about the role of state and societal actors in addressing common problems.

    Abstract: Drawing on data for the 104 largest German cities, and deeper analysis of six mid-sized cities (including forerunners, followers and latecomers in climate mitigation and adaptation), we find that the spread of local mitigation and adaptation strategies across Germany can be explained by a combination of horizontal diffusion and vertical upscaling. Specifically, while the spread of climate mitigation initiatives in the 1990s was triggered primarily by transnational municipal networks (horizontal diffusion), the development and revision of climate mitigation strategies and the emergence of climate adaptation strategies during the last decade have been driven mainly by national and subnational funding programmes (vertical upscaling). Notably, forerunner cities are less dependent on external funding than followers and latecomers, because they have more internal capacity to act. By arguing that upscaling of local climate policies from forerunners to followers and latecomers depends on interventions by national and subnational authorities, we stress that the majority of German municipalities require external support in order to develop and implement effective climate strategies.

    Abstract: Die medikamentöse Therapie mit Sympathomimetika bildet einen Grundpfeiler der Behandlung relevanter Blutdruckabfälle, so auch der intraoperativen Hypotonie (IOH). Dieses häufige Problem ist mit Endorganschäden assoziiert, wobei Nierenversagen und eine erhöhte Rate kardiovaskulärer Komplikationen am besten dokumentiert sind. Die Datenlage verdeutlicht die Notwendigkeit, dass eine IOH schnell und konsequent therapiert werden muss. Obwohl Cafedrin/Theodrenalin (C/T) in Deutschland häufig in dieser Indikation eingesetzt wird, fehlte bislang ein Wirksamkeitsvergleich mit international verfügbaren Alternativen wie Ephedrin (E). Methoden HYPOTENS ist eine prospektive, nationale, multizentrische (53 Kliniken mit 66 operativen Abteilungen), offene, zweiarmige, nicht-interventionelle Studie zum Vergleich der Wirksamkeit von C/T und E bei der IOH-Therapie unter klinischen Routinebedingungen. Diese Studie beschreibt eine prospektiv definierte Kohorte von Patienten im Alter von ≥50 Jahren mit Komorbiditäten, deren Allgemeinanästhesie mit Propofol und Fentanyl (≥0,2 mg oder Äquivalent) eingeleitet wurde. Alle Patienten hatten intraoperativ eine therapiepflichtige IOH entwickelt und wurden nach dem jeweiligen lokalen Standard mit C/T oder E therapiert. Die primären Studienziele waren Präzision und Schnelligkeit des Blutdruckanstiegs auf einen vor der Behandlung individuell festgelegten Mindest-Zielblutdruck, ohne dabei einen relevanten Anstieg der Herzfrequenz zu verursachen. Die Therapiezufriedenheit der Anästhesisten und die Anzahl zusätzlicher Bolusinjektionen oder weiterer kreislaufstabilisierender Maßnahmen waren sekundäre Endpunkte. Ergebnisse Insgesamt 1496 Patienten wurden protokollgemäß behandelt und ausgewertet. Eine Kreislaufstabilisierung wurde mit beiden Therapieoptionen erreicht. Post-hoc-Analysen zeigen, dass der Blutdruckanstieg unter C/T ausgeprägter war und gleichzeitig weniger zusätzliche Boli der jeweiligen Substanz appliziert und zusätzliche kreislaufstabilisierende Interventionen durchgeführt werden mussten. Die Inzidenz von Tachykardien war in beiden Behandlungsgruppen vergleichbar. Unter E kam es jedoch zu einer dosisabhängigen Erhöhung der Herzfrequenz, während bei den mit C/T behandelten Patienten die Herzfrequenz stabil blieb. Die Therapiezufriedenheit der Anästhesisten war im C/T-Arm höher. Schlussfolgerung Hinsichtlich der Kreislaufstabilisierung war keine der beiden Therapieoptionen überlegen. Post-hoc-Analysen deuten darauf hin, dass C/T unter Routinebedingungen eine zielorientiertere und einfacher zu steuernde Kreislaufstabilisierung ermöglicht. Die seltener erforderlichen erweiterten Therapiemaßnahmen zur ergänzenden IOH-Korrektur stellen einen möglichen Grund für die höhere Anwenderzufriedenheit dar.

    Abstract: Developing sustainable, carbon-neutral, and climate-resilient districts seems to be particularly challenging with respect to historic city centers. However, barriers posed by legal requirements for historical buildings are counterbalanced by opportunities because historic cities have not undergone urban modernization and did not embrace the concept of functional cities, which nowadays impedes urban sustainability transformations. Thus, this paper focuses on the relationship between cultural heritage, urban sustainable development, and climate policy. We study continuity and change in the mid-sized UNESCO World Heritage cities Potsdam (Germany) and Bern (Switzerland). These matching forerunner cities share many characteristics, which enables them to transfer policies and jointly create new solutions for common problems. We find that national context matters, but we also identify functional equivalents like referenda and active citizen participation. Despite many similarities, Potsdam is ahead of Bern with respect to the institutionalization and integration of climate mitigation and adaptation. The comparative analysis (interviews and document analysis) identifies innovations that can be transferred between the two cities (e.g., Potsdam’s integrative climate policy or Bern’s efforts to become a role model for stakeholders and citizens). Moreover, the challenge to coordinate heritage management and climate governance offers chances for cooperation between matching cities like Bern and Potsdam.
