    Title translation Interaktives Testbett für die Autismusforschung - das SARA-Projekt (DeepL)
    Abstract The project Stylized Animations for Research on Autism (SARA) aims to develop a better understanding of the cognitive processes behind emotional categorization in children and adolescents with high-functioning autism spectrum disorder (ASD), in comparison with neurotypically developed peers. To this end, we combine novel real-time non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) algorithms, emotional facial animations, and eye-tracking technologies in a framework that serves as an interactive testbed for empirical research. In this paper, we focus on three experiments that: (1) validate real-time facial animations of virtual characters, (2) evaluate the NPR algorithms to create abstracted facial expressions, and (3) elucidate the relation between eye gaze behavior, ASD and alexithymia (i.e., difficulties in expressing ones emotions). The results show that our animations can be used in the proposed experiments; however, more evaluation is needed regarding the NPR abstractions, especially with individuals with ASD. Finally, even though no correlation was found between gaze behavior, ASD and alexithymia, the study opened several questions that will be addressed in future work.

    Abstract Objectives: To assess aerosol formation during processing of model samples in a simulated real-world laboratory setting, then apply these findings to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) to assess the risk of infection to laboratory operators.
    Design: This study assessed aerosol formation when using cobas e analyzers only and in an end-to-end laboratory workflow. Recombinant hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was used as a surrogate marker for infectious SARS-CoV-2 viral particles. Using the HBsAg model, air sampling was performed at different positions around the cobas e analyzers and in four scenarios reflecting critical handling and/or transport locations in an end-to-end laboratory workflow. Aerosol formation of HBsAg was quantified using the Elecsys
    Results: Following application to SARS-CoV-2, mean HBsAg uptake/hour was 1.9 viral particles across the cobas e analyzers and 0.87 viral particles across all tested scenarios in an end-to-end laboratory workflow, corresponding to a maximum inhalation rate of <16 viral particles during an 8-hour shift.
    Conclusion: Low production of marker-containing aerosol when using cobas e analyzers and in an end-to-end laboratory workflow is consistent with a remote risk of laboratory-acquired SARS-CoV-2 infection for laboratory operators.

    Abstract The cognitive process model "SARA" aims to explain the anchoring effect and hindsight bias by making detailed assumptions about the representation and alteration of item-specific knowledge. The model assumes that all processes, namely generating an estimate, encoding new information (i.e., the "anchor"), and reconstructing a previously generated estimate, are based on a probabilistic sampling process. Sampling probes long-term memory in order to retrieve information into working memory. Retrieval depends on the associative strength between this information and the currently active retrieval cues. Encoding the anchor may alter this associative pattern ("selective activation") or the anchor may serve as a retrieval cue, thus directing memory search ("biased reconstruction"). Both processes lead to systematically changed retrieval probabilities, thus causing the anchoring effect or hindsight bias. The model is completely formalised and implemented as a computer program. A series of simulations demonstrates the power of SARA to reproduce empirical findings and to predict new ones.

    Abstract Background: This study assessed formation of potentially infectious aerosols during processing of infectious samples in a real-world laboratory setting, which could then be applied in the context of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Methods: This two-part study assessed aerosol formation when using cobas e analyzers only and in an end-to-end laboratory workflow. To estimate aerosol formation, recombinant hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was used as a surrogate marker for infectious virus particles to evaluate the potential risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection to laboratory operators. Using the HBsAg model, air sampling was performed at different positions around the cobas e analyzers and in four scenarios reflecting critical handling and/or transport locations in an end-to-end laboratory workflow. Aerosol formation of HBsAg was quantified using the Elecsys<sup>®</sup> HBsAg II quant II assay. The model was then applied to a SARS-CoV-2 context using SARS-CoV-2 infection-specific parameters to calculate viral RNA copies. Results: Following application to SARS-CoV-2, the mean HBsAg uptake per hour when recalculated into viral RNA copies was 1.9 viral RNA copies across the cobas e analyzers and 0.87 viral RNA copies across all tested scenarios in an end-to-end laboratory workflow. This corresponds to a maximum aspiration rate of <16 viral RNA copies during an 8-hour shift when using cobas e analyzers and/or in an end-to-end laboratory workflow. Conclusions: The low production of marker-containing aerosol when using cobas e analyzers and in an end-to-end laboratory workflow is consistent with a remote risk of laboratory-acquired SARS-CoV-2 infection for laboratory operators.

    Abstract Five crude oils with a wide range of API gravities were characterized by means of nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR) and SARA (saturates, aromatics, resins, and asphaltenes) composition. From NMR analyses, the concentrations of aromatic-hydrogen (Hₐᵣ) and aromatic-carbon (Cₐᵣ) were obtained, with which the corresponding aromaticity factors FHA and FCA were calculated. Aromaticity factors were used to develop correlations to predict the SARA concentration of crude oils. The developed correlations showed good accuracy when comparing experimental and calculated values.

    Title variant VACCELERATE Webinar JULY 05 2023: eConsent - Chances and Challenges for a Multistakeholder Community
    Institution VACCELERATE
    Author's details Presenter: Hilde Vanaken, PhD ; Moderator: Prof. Jacques Demotes ; Organizor: VACCELERATE (Coordinator: Prof. Oliver A. Cornely)
    Abstract The consent document is not only the input but also the output and final agreement between participant and investigator. The ability to store and retrieve the document (e.g. by printing, downloading) is a "must have" digital feature of each eConsent tool. eConsent tools should be simple, self-explanatory, and easy-to-use. If they multiply investigator’s workload or frustrate participants, it will not work. But there is no "one size fits all" eConsent model. Each disease, each study, each site, each participant might have different needs. Clearly the COVID-19 pandemic increased the awareness and openness for eConsent, but it also showed that the impact of in-person contacts should not be underestimated. Different aspects should be considered when selecting the eConsent digital features for a disease, study, sites and participants. Ultimately, eConsent tools should be flexible and become as easy to use and create as a paper consent. In this webinar, Hilde Vanaken will speak about eConsent terminologies, requirements, advantages, and hurdles, and share some insights in the harmonization activities ongoing in the multistakeholder EFGCP initiative.
