    Abstract Kultureller Bildung wird als Erfahrungs- und Lernbereich ein bedeutsames Potenzial zugesprochen. Es besteht jedoch keine hinreichende empirische Evidenz bezüglich vieler mit kultureller Bildung verbundener Fragen: Mit welchen Angeboten kultureller Bildung an welchen Orten können welche Ergebnisse für wen erzielt werden? Wie können Prozesse und das komplexe Zusammenspiel ihrer Voraussetzungen und Wirkungen wissenschaftlich solide untersucht werden? In diesem Band werden in 24 Beiträgen Ergebnisse aus Forschungsprojekten präsentiert, die sich diesen Fragen widmen. Die Studien zu verschiedenen Genres, Räumen, Akteuren und Formen der kulturellen Bildungspraxis wie ihrer Grundlagen und Implikationen eröffnen neue Diskussionslinien zur Bedeutung und Komplexität kultureller Bildung. Methodologisch werden neue Wege ausgelotet und ausgehend von den empirischen Befunden vorliegende Erkenntnisse theoretisch erweitert. Die Studien wurden vom Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung gefördert

    Abstract Photorespiration is an inevitable trait of all oxygenic phototrophs, being the only known metabolic route that converts the inhibitory side-product of Rubisco's oxygenase activity 2-phosphoglycolate (2PG) back into the Calvin-Benson (CB) cycle's intermediate 3-phosphoglycerate (3PGA). Through this function of metabolite repair, photorespiration is able to protect photosynthetic carbon assimilation from the metabolite intoxication that would occur in the present-day oxygen-rich atmosphere. In recent years, much plant research has provided compelling evidence that photorespiration safeguards photosynthesis and engages in cross-talk with a number of subcellular processes. Moreover, the potential of manipulating photorespiration to increase the photosynthetic yield potential has been demonstrated in several plant species. Considering this multifaceted role, it is tempting to presume photorespiration itself is subject to a suite of regulation mechanisms to eventually exert a regulatory impact on other processes, and vice versa. The identification of potential pathway interactions and underlying regulatory aspects has been facilitated via analysis of the photorespiratory mutant phenotype, accompanied by the emergence of advanced omics' techniques and biochemical approaches. In this mini-review, I focus on the identification of enzymatic steps which control the photorespiratory flux, as well as levels of transcriptional, posttranslational, and metabolic regulation. Most importantly, glycine decarboxylase (GDC) and 2PG are identified as being key photorespiratory determinants capable of controlling photorespiratory flux and communicating with other branches of plant primary metabolism.

    Abstract Photorespiration is inevitable for oxygenic photosynthesis. It has fascinated researchers over decades because of its multicompartmental organization. Recently, Lin and Tsay identified a vacuole glycerate transporter contributing to photorespiratory metabolism under short-term nitrogen depletion. This key finding adds a fifth interacting subcellular compartment and extends the photorespiratory metabolic repair module.

    Abstract This Letter considers the design for computing facilities that are complementary to the leadership class High Performance Computing (HPC) facilities. This design envisions a future where funding agencies are allocating greater resources for leadership class facilities and these facilities will provide a significant part of the total compute cycles for HEP Experiments. While a leadership class facility (LCF) may provide cycles and advanced architectures, the facility does not necessarily provide all of the services needed to help HEP users make the best use of the HPC facility, as well as the services needed to provide computing for workflows that are not a good fit for the HPC facilities. This Letter outlines some of the necessary components of a facility designed to provide those services and capabilities.

    Abstract Aim: During COVID-19 restrictions, the paediatric clinic only accepted essential outpatient visits, schools closed, sports activities and social life were limited. Most employees worked at home. This quasi-experiment evaluates how this affected glycaemic control and use of health services among children with diabetes.
    Methods: Paired t-tests were used to compare HbA1c-values before, during and after lockdown. Sub-analyses were stratified by pre-lockdown HbA1c-values.
    Results: Overall mean HbA1c decreased from 58.3 to 56.9 mmol/mol (p = 0.025) from pre- to post-lockdown, a decrease also seen during the same season the previous year. HbA1c decreased by -4.2 mmol/mol (p = 0.002) for patients with pre-lockdown HbA1c > 59 mmol/mol, but increased slightly by 0.8 mmol/mol (p = 0.176) for patients with HbA1c < 52 mmol/mol. HbA1c measured 8 months post-lockdown increased again, most pronounced for patients with lowest HbA1c. During lockdown, virtual contacts increased from 0.1 to 0.5 contacts/patient/month and stayed post-lockdown at 0.3 contacts/patient/month.
    Conclusion: Compared to 2019, overall the COVID-19 restrictions did not influence the glycaemic control negatively. However, patients with pre-lockdown HbA1c < 52 mmol/mol experienced a deterioration, whereas those with HbA1c > 59 mmol/mol experienced an improvement. Less stress and more contact with parents may contribute to the last-mentioned finding. The lockdown enforced more virtual contacts between patients and the clinic.

    Abstract Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Early diagnosis is pivotal for the prognosis. There is a notable overlap between lung cancer and chronic bronchitis, and the potential use of methylated tumor DNA in sputum as a biomarker for lung cancer detection is appealing. This systematic review and meta-analysis followed the PRISMA 2020 statement. A comprehensive search was conducted in Embase, Medline, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library, using these search strings: Lung cancer, sputum, and methylated tumor DNA. A total of 15 studies met the eligibility criteria. Studies predominantly utilized a case-control design, with sensitivity ranging from 10 to 93% and specificity from 8 to 100%. A meta-analysis of all genes across studies resulted in a summary sensitivity of 54.3% (95% CI 49.4-59.2%) and specificity of 79.7% (95% CI 75.0-83.7%). Notably, two less explored genes (TAC1, SOX17) demonstrated sensitivity levels surpassing 85%. The study's findings highlight substantial variations in the sensitivity and specificity of methylated tumor DNA in sputum for lung cancer detection. Challenges in reproducibility could stem from differences in tumor site, sample acquisition, extraction methods, and methylation measurement techniques. This meta-analysis provides a foundation for prioritizing high-performing genes, calling for a standardization and refinement of methodologies before potential application in clinical trials.

    Abstract Background: Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROM) provide important information, however, missing PROM data threaten the interpretability and generalizability of findings by introducing potential bias. This study aims to provide insight into missingness mechanisms and inform future researchers on generalizability and possible methodological solutions to overcome missing PROM data problems during data collection and statistical analyses.
    Methods: We identified 10,236 colorectal cancer survivors (CRCs) above 18y, diagnosed between 2014 and 2018 through the Danish Clinical Registries. We invited a random 20% (2,097) to participate in a national survey in May 2023. We distributed reminder e-mails at day 10 and day 20, and compared Initial Responders (response day 0-9), Subsequent Responders (response day 10-28) and Non-responders (no response after 28 days) in demographic and cancer-related characteristics and PROM-scores using linear regression.
    Results: Of the 2,097 CRCs, 1,188 responded (57%). Of these, 142 (7%) were excluded leaving 1,955 eligible CRCs. 628 (32%) were categorized as initial responders, 418 (21%) as subsequent responders, and 909 (47%) as non-responders. Differences in demographic and cancer-related characteristics between the three groups were minor and PROM-scores only marginally differed between initial and subsequent responders.
    Conclusion: In this study of long-term colorectal cancer survivors, we showed that initial responders, subsequent responders, and non-responders exhibit comparable demographic and cancer-related characteristics. Among respondents, Patient-Reported Outcome Measures were also similar, indicating generalizability. Assuming Patient-Reported Outcome Measures of subsequent responders represent answers by the non-responders (would they be available), it may be reasonable to judge the missingness mechanism as Missing Completely At Random.
