Treatment with melatonin, a cytoprotective neurohormone with anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and anti-apoptotic effects, has been shown to attenuate early brain injury (EBI) and to prevent delayed cerebral vasospasm in experimental aSAH models. Less is known about the role of endogenous melatonin for aSAH outcome and how its production is altered by the pathophysiological cascades initiated during EBI. In the present observational study, we analyzed changes in melatonin levels during the first three weeks after aSAH.}, language = {en} } @article{WaldvogelFreylerHelmetal.2023, author = {Waldvogel, Janice and Freyler, Kathrin and Helm, Michael and Monti, Elena and St{\"a}udle, Benjamin and Gollhofer, Albert and Narici, Marco V. and Ritzmann, Ramona and Albracht, Kirsten}, title = {Changes in gravity affect neuromuscular control, biomechanics, and muscle-tendon mechanics in energy storage and dissipation tasks}, series = {Journal of Applied Physiology}, volume = {134}, journal = {Journal of Applied Physiology}, number = {1}, publisher = {American Physiological Society}, address = {Bethesda, Md.}, issn = {1522-1601 (Onlineausgabe)}, doi = {10.1152/japplphysiol.00279.2022}, pages = {190 -- 202}, year = {2023}, abstract = {This study evaluates neuromechanical control and muscle-tendon interaction during energy storage and dissipation tasks in hypergravity. During parabolic flights, while 17 subjects performed drop jumps (DJs) and drop landings (DLs), electromyography (EMG) of the lower limb muscles was combined with in vivo fascicle dynamics of the gastrocnemius medialis, two-dimensional (2D) kinematics, and kinetics to measure and analyze changes in energy management. Comparisons were made between movement modalities executed in hypergravity (1.8 G) and gravity on ground (1 G). In 1.8 G, ankle dorsiflexion, knee joint flexion, and vertical center of mass (COM) displacement are lower in DJs than in DLs; within each movement modality, joint flexion amplitudes and COM displacement demonstrate higher values in 1.8 G than in 1 G. Concomitantly, negative peak ankle joint power, vertical ground reaction forces, and leg stiffness are similar between both movement modalities (1.8 G). In DJs, EMG activity in 1.8 G is lower during the COM deceleration phase than in 1 G, thus impairing quasi-isometric fascicle behavior. In DLs, EMG activity before and during the COM deceleration phase is higher, and fascicles are stretched less in 1.8 G than in 1 G. Compared with the situation in 1 G, highly task-specific neuromuscular activity is diminished in 1.8 G, resulting in fascicle lengthening in both movement modalities. Specifically, in DJs, a high magnitude of neuromuscular activity is impaired, resulting in altered energy storage. In contrast, in DLs, linear stiffening of the system due to higher neuromuscular activity combined with lower fascicle stretch enhances the buffering function of the tendon, and thus the capacity to safely dissipate energy.}, language = {en} } @incollection{DigelSadykovTemizArtmannetal.2015, author = {Digel, Ilya and Sadykov, R. and Temiz Artmann, Ayseg{\"u}l and Artmann, Gerhard}, title = {Changes in intestinal microflora in rats induced by oral exposure to low lead (II) concentrations}, series = {Lead Exposure and Poisoning: Clinical Symptoms, Medical Management and Preventive Strategies}, booktitle = {Lead Exposure and Poisoning: Clinical Symptoms, Medical Management and Preventive Strategies}, publisher = {Nova Science Publ.}, isbn = {9781634826990}, pages = {75 -- 99}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{FeuchtSchoenbachLanzletal.2013, author = {Feucht, Nikolaus and Sch{\"o}nbach, Etienne Michael and Lanzl, Ines and Kotliar, Konstantin and Lohmann, Chris Patrick and Maier, Mathias}, title = {Changes in the foveal microstructure after intravitreal bevacizumab application in patients with retinal vascular disease}, series = {Clinical Ophthalmology}, volume = {7}, journal = {Clinical Ophthalmology}, publisher = {Dove Medical Press}, address = {Auckland, New Zealand}, issn = {1177-5483}, pages = {173 -- 178}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{Hanrath1989, author = {Hanrath, Wilhelm}, title = {Character tables of some factor groups of space groups}, series = {Perfect groups / Derek F.

These sensors are built up in form of a differential set-up of a catalytically active and passive temperature-sensitive structure. Although, various types of catalytically active dispersions have been studied, the passivation layer has to be established and therefore, chemically as well as physically characterised. In the present work, fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP), perfluoralkoxy (PFA) and epoxy-based SU-8 photoresist as temperature-stable polymeric materials have been investigated for sensor passivation in terms of their chemical inertness against H₂O₂, their hygroscopic properties as well as their morphology. The polymeric materials were deposited via spin-coating on the temperature-sensitive structure, wherein spin-coated FEP and PFA show slight agglomerates. However, they possess a low absorption of humidity due to their hydrophobic surface, whereas the SU-8 layer has a closed surface but shows a slightly higher absorption of water. All of them were inert against gaseous H₂O₂ during the characterisation in H₂O₂ atmosphere that demonstrates their suitability as passivation layer for calorimetric H₂O₂ gas sensors.}, language = {en} } @article{SchrothLuethHummeletal.2001, author = {Schroth, P. and L{\"u}th, H. and Hummel, Hans E. and Sch{\"u}tz, S. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Characterising an insect antenna as a receptor for a biosensor by means of impedance spectroscopy}, series = {Scaling down in electrochemistry : electrochemical micro- and nanosystem technology ; proceedings of the 3rd International Symposium on Electrochemical Microsystem Technologies, Garmisch-Patenkirchen, Germany, 11 - 15 September 2000 / ed. by J.

The important input parameters are interface mobility, nucleation density, etc. A contribution was made to include austenite to bainite transformation in MICRESS®. This is useful to predict the microstructure in the fast cooling segments. The phase transformation model is capable to predict the microstructure along the heating and cooling cycles of welding.

To achieve an optimal operating condition, a good characterization of the lamp in terms of radio frequency equivalent circuits under operating conditions is necessary, enabling the design of an efficient matching network. This paper presents the characterization technique for such lamps and presents the design of the required matching network. For the characterization, a high-intensity discharge lamp was driven by a monofrequent large signal at 2.45 GHz, whereas a frequency sweep over 300 MHz was performed across this signal to measure so-called small-signal hot S-parameters using a vector network analyzer. These parameters are then used as an equivalent load in a circuit simulator to design an appropriate matching network. Using the measured data as a black-box model in the simulation results in a quick and efficient method to simulate and design efficient matching networks in spite of the complex plasma behavior. Furthermore, photometric analysis of high-intensity discharge lamps are carried out, comparing microwave operation to conventional operation.}, language = {en} } @article{SelmerKimDarleyetal.2006, author = {Selmer, Thorsten and Kim, Jihoe and Darley, Daniel and Buckel, Wolfgang}, title = {Characterization of (R)-2-hydroxyisocaproate dehydrogenase and a family III coenzyme A transferase involved in reduction of L-leucine to isocaproate by Clostridium difficile / Kim, J. ; Darley, D. ; Selmer, T. ; Buckel, W.}, series = {Applied and Environmental Microbiology. 72 (2006), H. 9}, journal = {Applied and Environmental Microbiology. 72 (2006), H. 9}, isbn = {0099-2240}, pages = {6062 -- 6069}, year = {2006}, language = {en} } @article{JossekBongaertsSprenger2001, author = {Jossek, Ralf and Bongaerts, Johannes and Sprenger, Georg A.}, title = {Characterization of a new feedback-resistant 3-deoxy-D-arabinoheptulosonate 7-phosphate synthase AroF of Escherichia coli}, series = {FEMS microbiology letters}, volume = {Vol. 202}, journal = {FEMS microbiology letters}, number = {Iss. 1}, issn = {1574-6968}, pages = {145 -- 148}, year = {2001}, language = {en} }
