The present study investigated the occurrence of common harmful algal bloom (HAB) taxa within the Southern California Bight, using cross-correlation functions to determine potential dependencies between HAB taxa and environmental factors, and potential links to algal transport via local hydrography and currents. A simulation study, in which Lagrangian particles were released, was used to assess travel times due to advection by prevailing ocean currents in the bight. Our results indicate that transport of some taxa may be an important mechanism for the expansion of their distributions into other regions, which was supported by mean travel times derived from our simulation study and other literature on ocean currents in the Southern California Bight. In other cases, however, phytoplankton dynamics were rather linked to local environmental conditions, including coastal upwelling events. Overall, our study shows that complex current patterns in the Southern California Bight may contribute significantly to the formation and expansion of HABs in addition to local environmental factors determining the spatiotemporal dynamics of phytoplankton blooms.}, language = {en} } @article{BialonskiAnsmannKantz2015, author = {Bialonski, Stephan and Ansmann, Gerrit and Kantz, Holger}, title = {Data-driven prediction and prevention of extreme events in a spatially extended excitable system}, series = {Physical Review E}, volume = {92}, journal = {Physical Review E}, number = {4}, issn = {2470-0053}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevE.92.042910}, pages = {042910}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{MulhernBialonskiKantz2015, author = {Mulhern, Colm and Bialonski, Stephan and Kantz, Holger}, title = {Extreme events due to localization of energy}, series = {Physical Review E}, volume = {91}, journal = {Physical Review E}, number = {1}, issn = {2470-0053}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevE.91.012918}, pages = {012918}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{GeierLehnertzBialonski2015, author = {Geier, Christian and Lehnertz, Klaus and Bialonski, Stephan}, title = {Time-dependent degree-degree correlations in epileptic brain networks: from assortative to dissortative mixing}, series = {Frontiers in Human Neuroscience}, journal = {Frontiers in Human Neuroscience}, publisher = {Frontiers Research Foundation}, address = {Lausanne}, issn = {1662-5161}, doi = {10.3389/fnhum.2015.00462}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{GeierBialonskiElgeretal.2015, author = {Geier, Christian and Bialonski, Stephan and Elger, Christian E. and Lehnertz, Klaus}, title = {How important is the seizure onset zone for seizure dynamics?}, series = {Seizure}, volume = {25}, journal = {Seizure}, issn = {1059-1311}, doi = {10.1016/j.seizure.2014.10.013}, pages = {160 -- 166}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{LehnertzAnsmannBialonskietal.2014, author = {Lehnertz, Klaus and Ansmann, Gerrit and Bialonski, Stephan and Dickten, Henning and Geier, Christian and Porz, Stephan}, title = {Evolving networks in the human epileptic brain}, series = {Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena}, volume = {267}, journal = {Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0167-2789}, doi = {10.1016/j.physd.2013.06.009}, pages = {7 -- 15}, year = {2014}, abstract = {Network theory provides novel concepts that promise an improved characterization of interacting dynamical systems.

This increase was observed to occur earlier in complex partial seizures than in secondarily generalized seizures. We here address the question whether such an increase of neuronal correlation prior to seizure end is indeed a global phenomenon, involving both hemispheres or whether there are side-specific differences. Methods: We analyzed 20 focal onset seizures (10 complex partial, 10 secondarily generalized seizures) recorded in 13 patients who underwent presurgical evaluation of focal epilepsies of different origin. EEG was recorded intracranially from bilaterally implanted subdural strip and intrahippocampal depth electrodes. Utilizing a moving window approach, we investigated the evolution of the maximum cross correlation for all channel combinations during seizures. For each moving window the mean value of the maximum cross correlation (MCC) between all electrode contacts was computed separately for each hemisphere. After normalization of seizure durations, MCC values of the ipsi- and contralateral hemisphere for all seizures were determined. Results: We observed that the MCC of the contralateral hemisphere in complex partial seizures increased during the first half of the seizure, whereas, for the same time interval, the MCC of the ipsilateral hemisphere even declined below the level of the pre-seizure period. In contrast, no significant differences between both hemispheres could be observed for secondarily generalized seizures where both hemispheres showed a simultaneous increase of MCC during the second half of the seizures. The level of MCC for the contralateral hemisphere was higher for complex partial seizures than for secondarily generalized seizures during the first half of the seizure. Conclusions: Our findings indicate that there are indeed lateralized differences in the evolution of global neuronal correlation during complex partial and secondarily generalized seizures. The observed contralateral increase of neuronal correlation during complex partial seizures might indicate an emerging self-organizing mechanism for preventing the spread of seizure activity.}, language = {en} } @article{AllefeldBialonski2007, author = {Allefeld, Carsten and Bialonski, Stephan}, title = {Detecting synchronization clusters in multivariate time series via coarse-graining of Markov chains}, series = {Physical Review E}, volume = {76}, journal = {Physical Review E}, number = {6}, issn = {2470-0053}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevE.76.066207}, pages = {066207}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{LehnertzMormannOsterhageetal.2007, author = {Lehnertz, Klaus and Mormann, Florian and Osterhage, Hannes and Andy, M{\"u}ller and Prusseit, Jens and Chernihovskyi, Anton and Staniek, Matth{\"a}us and Krug, Dieter and Bialonski, Stephan and Elger, Christian E.}, title = {State-of-the-art of seizure prediction}, series = {Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology}, volume = {24}, journal = {Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology}, number = {2}, issn = {1537-1603}, doi = {10.1097/WNP.0b013e3180336f16}, pages = {147 -- 153}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{BialonskiLehnertz2006, author = {Bialonski, Stephan and Lehnertz, Klaus}, title = {Identifying phase synchronization clusters in spatially extended dynamical systems}, series = {Physical Review E}, volume = {74}, journal = {Physical Review E}, number = {5}, issn = {2470-0053}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevE.74.051909}, pages = {051909}, year = {2006}, language = {en} } @article{BialonskiWellmerElgeretal.2006, author = {Bialonski, Stephan and Wellmer, J{\"o}rg and Elger, Christian E. and Lehnertz, Klaus}, title = {Interictal focus localization in neocortical lesional epilepsies with synchronization cluster analysis}, series = {Epilepsia}, volume = {47}, journal = {Epilepsia}, issn = {0013-9580}, pages = {36}, year = {2006}, language = {en} } @article{RichterBraunsteinWinnardetal.2017, author = {Richter, Charlotte and Braunstein, Bjoern and Winnard, Andrew and Nasser, Mona and Weber, T.}, title = {Human Biomechanical and Cardiopulmonary Responses to Partial Gravity - A Systematic Review}, series = {Frontiers in physiology}, journal = {Frontiers in physiology}, number = {8, article 583}, doi = {10.3389/fphys.2017.00583}, pages = {22 Seiten}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RichterBraunsteinStaeudleetal.2018, author = {Richter, Charlotte and Braunstein, Bjoern and St{\"a}udle, Benjamin and Attias, Julia and Suess, Alexander and Weber, T. and Rittweger, Joern and Green, David A. and Albracht, Kirsten}, title = {In vivo fascicle length of the gastrocnemius muscle during walking in simulated martian gravity using two different body weight support devices}, series = {23rd Annual Congress of the European College of Sport Science, Dublin, Irland}, booktitle = {23rd Annual Congress of the European College of Sport Science, Dublin, Irland}, year = {2018}, language = {en} } @incollection{SchoeningPoghossian2018, author = {Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Poghossian, Arshak}, title = {Enzyme und Biosensorik}, series = {Einf{\"u}hrung in die Enzymtechnologie}, booktitle = {Einf{\"u}hrung in die Enzymtechnologie}, publisher = {Springer Spektrum}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-662-57619-9}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-662-57619-9_18}, pages = {323 -- 347}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Enzymbasierte Biosensoren finden seit mehr als f{\"u}nf Jahrzehnten einen prosperierenden Wachstumsmarkt und werden zunehmend auch in biotechnologischen Prozessen eingesetzt.

Under 1 g, pre-activity before and muscle activity after ground contact, scale muscle stiffness, which is crucial for the recoil properties of the MTU in the subsequent push-off. This study aimed to examine the neuro-mechanical coupling of the stretch-shortening cycle in response to gravity levels ranging from 0.1 to 2 g. During parabolic flights, 17 subjects performed drop jumps while electromyography (EMG) of the lower limb muscles was combined with ultrasound images of the gastrocnemius medialis, 2D kinematics and kinetics to depict changes in energy management and performance. Neuro-mechanical coupling in 1 g was characterized by high magnitudes of pre-activity and eccentric muscle activity allowing an isometric muscle behavior during ground contact. EMG during pre-activity and the concentric phase systematically increased from 0.1 to 1 g. Below 1 g the EMG in the eccentric phase was diminished, leading to muscle lengthening and reduced MTU stretches. Kinetic energy at take-off and performance were decreased compared to 1 g. Above 1 g, reduced EMG in the eccentric phase was accompanied by large MTU and muscle stretch, increased joint flexion amplitudes, energy loss and reduced performance. The energy outcome function established by linear mixed model reveals that the central nervous system regulates the extensor muscles phase- and load-specifically. In conclusion, neuro-mechanical coupling appears to be optimized in 1 g. Below 1 g, the energy outcome is compromised by reduced muscle stiffness. Above 1 g, loading progressively induces muscle lengthening, thus facilitating energy dissipation.}, language = {en} } @article{HugenrothNeidlinEngelmannetal.2021, author = {Hugenroth, Kristin and Neidlin, Michael and Engelmann, Ulrich M. and Kaufmann, Tim A.

Structure and physicochemical properties of the BC and its modifications were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and infrared Fourier spectroscopy as well as by measurements of mechanical and water holding/absorbing capacities. Topographic analysis of the surface revealed multicomponent thick fibrils (150-160 nm in diameter and about 15 µm in length) constituted by 50-60 nm nanofibrils weaved into a left-hand helix. Distinctive features of Ca-phosphate-modified BC samples were (a) the presence of 500-700 nm entanglements and (b) inclusions of Ca3(PO4)2 crystals. The samples impregnated with Ag nanoparticles exhibited numerous roundish inclusions, about 110 nm in diameter. The boundaries between the organic and inorganic phases were very distinct in both cases. The Ag-modified samples also showed a prominent waving pattern in the packing of nanofibrils. The obtained BC gel films possessed water-holding capacity of about 62.35 g/g. However, the dried (to a constant mass) BC-films later exhibited a low water absorption capacity (3.82 g/g). It was found that decellularized BC samples had 2.4 times larger Young's modulus and 2.2 times greater tensile strength as compared to dehydrated native BC films.

With the advent of new long flexible cannulas an advancement of the tip up to the ascending aorta has become feasible. To investigate the impact of such long endoluminal cannulas on upper body perfusion, a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) study was performed considering different support levels and three cannula positions. Methods: An idealized literature-based- and a real patient proximal aortic geometry including an endoluminal cannula were constructed. The blood flow was considered continuous. Oxygen saturation was set to 80\% for the blood coming from the heart and to 100\% for the blood leaving the cannula. 50\% and 90\% venoarterial support levels from the total blood flow rate of 6 l/min were investigated for three different positions of the cannula in the aortic arch. Results: For both geometries, the placement of the cannula in the ascending aorta led to a superior oxygenation of all aortic blood vessels except for the left coronary artery. Cannula placements at the aortic arch and descending aorta could support supra-aortic arteries, but not the coronary arteries. All positions were able to support all branches with saturated blood at 90\% flow volume. Conclusions: In accordance with clinical observations CFD analysis reveals, that retrograde advancement of a long endoluminal cannula can considerably improve the oxygenation of the upper body and lead to oxygen saturation distributions similar to those of a central cannulation.}, language = {en} } @article{LenzKahmannBehbahanietal.2022, author = {Lenz, Maximilian and Kahmann, Stephanie Lucina and Behbahani, Mehdi and Pennig, Lenhard and Hackl, Michael and Leschinger, Tim and M{\"u}ller, Lars Peter and Wegmann, Kilian}, title = {Influence of rotator cuff preload on fracture configuration in proximal humerus fractures: a proof of concept for fracture simulation}, series = {Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery}, journal = {Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin, Heidelberg}, issn = {1434-3916}, doi = {10.1007/s00402-022-04471-9}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Introduction In regard of surgical training, the reproducible simulation of life-like proximal humerus fractures in human cadaveric specimens is desirable. The aim of the present study was to develop a technique that allows simulation of realistic proximal humerus fractures and to analyse the influence of rotator cuff preload on the generated lesions in regards of fracture configuration. Materials and methods Ten cadaveric specimens (6 left, 4 right) were fractured using a custom-made drop-test bench, in two groups. Five specimens were fractured without rotator cuff preload, while the other five were fractured with the tendons of the rotator cuff preloaded with 2 kg each. The humeral shaft and the shortened scapula were potted. The humerus was positioned at 90° of abduction and 10° of internal rotation to simulate a fall on the elevated arm. In two specimens of each group, the emergence of the fractures was documented with high-speed video imaging. Pre-fracture radiographs were taken to evaluate the deltoid-tuberosity index as a measure of bone density. Post-fracture X-rays and CT scans were performed to define the exact fracture configurations. Neer's classification was used to analyse the fractures. Results In all ten cadaveric specimens life-like proximal humerus fractures were achieved. Two III-part and three IV-part fractures resulted in each group. The preloading of the rotator cuff muscles had no further influence on the fracture configuration. High-speed videos of the fracture simulation revealed identical fracture mechanisms for both groups. We observed a two-step fracture mechanism, with initial impaction of the head segment against the glenoid followed by fracturing of the head and the tuberosities and then with further impaction of the shaft against the acromion, which lead to separation of the tuberosities. Conclusion A high energetic axial impulse can reliably induce realistic proximal humerus fractures in cadaveric specimens. The preload of the rotator cuff muscles had no influence on initial fracture configuration. Therefore, fracture simulation in the proximal humerus is less elaborate.

The applied forces are transmitted to the tooth root and the periodontal ligaments which is compressed on one side and tensed up on the other side. Indeed, strong forces can lead to tooth root resorption and the crown-to-tooth ratio is reduced with the potential for significant clinical impact. The cementum, which covers the tooth root, is a thin mineralized tissue of the periodontium that connects the periodontal ligament with the tooth and is build up by cementoblasts. The impact of tension and compression on these cells is investigated in several in vivo and in vitro studies demonstrating differences in protein expression and signaling pathways. In summary, osteogenic marker changes indicate that cyclic tensile forces support whereas static tension inhibits cementogenesis. Furthermore, cementogenesis experiences the same protein expression changes in static conditions as static tension, but cyclic compression leads to the exact opposite of cyclic tension. Consistent with marker expression changes, the singaling pathways of Wnt/ß-catenin and RANKL/OPG show that tissue compression leads to cementum degradation and tension forces to cementogenesis. However, the cementum, and in particular its cementoblasts, remain a research area which should be explored in more detail to understand the underlying mechanism of bone resorption and remodeling after orthodontic treatments.}, language = {en} } @article{AngermannGuenthnerHanssenetal.2022, author = {Angermann, Susanne and G{\"u}nthner, Roman and Hanssen, Henner and Lorenz, Georg and Braunisch, Matthias C. and Steubl, Dominik and Matschkal, Julia and Kemmner, Stephan and Hausinger, Renate and Block, Zenonas and Haller, Bernhard and Heemann, Uwe and Kotliar, Konstantin and Grimmer, Timo and Schmaderer, Christoph}, title = {Cognitive impairment and microvascular function in end-stage renal disease}, series = {International Journal of Methods in Psychiatric Research (MPR)}, volume = {31}, journal = {International Journal of Methods in Psychiatric Research (MPR)}, number = {2}, publisher = {Wiley}, issn = {1049-8931 (Print)}, doi = {10.1002/mpr.1909}, pages = {1 -- 10}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Objective Hemodialysis patients show an approximately threefold higher prevalence of cognitive impairment compared to the age-matched general population.

A possibility to include both topics in a single approach is working on a very general space for the underlying observations, such as a separable Hilbert space. We propose a general method for consistently hypothesis testing on the basis of random variables with values in separable Hilbert spaces. We avoid concerns with the curse of dimensionality due to a projection idea. We apply well-known test statistics from nonparametric inference to the projected data and integrate over all projections from a specific set and with respect to suitable probability measures. In contrast to classical methods, which are applicable for real-valued random variables or random vectors of dimensions lower than the sample size, the tests can be applied to random vectors of dimensions larger than the sample size or even to functional and high-dimensional data. In general, resampling procedures such as bootstrap or permutation are suitable to determine critical values. The idea can be extended to the case of incomplete observations. Moreover, we develop an efficient algorithm for implementing the method. Examples are given for testing goodness-of-fit in a one-sample situation in [1] or for testing marginal homogeneity on the basis of a paired sample in [2]. Here, the test statistics in use can be seen as generalizations of the well-known Cram{\´e}rvon-Mises test statistics in the one-sample and two-samples case. The treatment of other testing problems is possible as well. By using the theory of U-statistics, for instance, asymptotic null distributions of the test statistics are obtained as the sample size tends to infinity. Standard continuity assumptions ensure the asymptotic exactness of the tests under the null hypothesis and that the tests detect any alternative in the limit. Simulation studies demonstrate size and power of the tests in the finite sample case, confirm the theoretical findings, and are used for the comparison with concurring procedures. A possible application of the general approach is inference for stock market returns, also in high data frequencies. In the field of empirical finance, statistical inference of stock market prices usually takes place on the basis of related log-returns as data. In the classical models for stock prices, i.e., the exponential L{\´e}vy model, Black-Scholes model, and Merton model, properties such as independence and stationarity of the increments ensure an independent and identically structure of the data. Specific trends during certain periods of the stock price processes can cause complications in this regard. In fact, our approach can compensate those effects by the treatment of the log-returns as random vectors or even as functional data.}, language = {en} } @article{DitzhausGaigall2022, author = {Ditzhaus, Marc and Gaigall, Daniel}, title = {Testing marginal homogeneity in Hilbert spaces with applications to stock market returns}, series = {Test}, volume = {2022}, journal = {Test}, number = {31}, publisher = {Springer}, issn = {1863-8260}, doi = {10.1007/s11749-022-00802-5}, pages = {749 -- 770}, year = {2022}, abstract = {This paper considers a paired data framework and discusses the question of marginal homogeneity of bivariate high-dimensional or functional data.
