Neue Herausforderungen für das Gesundheitssystem – Zugang zu Gesundheitsdienstleistungen in diversen StadtquartierenNARA Subscribed
Zusammenfassung Der Zugang zu Gesundheitsdienstleistungen wird durch sechs Dimensionen von Barrieren und Anreizen geprägt und stellt für das Gesundheitswesen eine zentrale Kenngröße dar. In diversen Stadtquartieren besteht eine Mischung soziokulturell beeinflusster Zugangsbarrieren und -anreize. Aufbauend auf einem Überblick über die Forschungsfelder migrantischer Gesundheit und Zugangsforschung werden Einflussfaktoren erläute...

The Toxicology Investigators Consortium 2023 Annual ReportNARA Subscribed
Mesoscale eddies cause deviations from the background physical and biogeochemical states of the oligotrophic oceans, but how these perturbations manifest in microbial ecosystem functioning, such as community macromolecular composition or carbon export, remains poorly characterized. We present comparative lipidomes from communities entrained in two eddies of opposite polarities (cyclone–anticyclone) in the North Pacific Subtrop...
Transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) and Coomassie stainable particles (CSP), two prominent classes of gel−like particles in the ocean primarily produced by phytoplankton, play crucial roles in ecological and biogeochemical processes, influencing microbial nutrition, growth, and particle aggregation. The distribution of these particles is intricately linked to the spatiotemporal dynamics of phytoplankton. Mesoscale cyclonic...

Acid sphingomyelinase expression is associated with survival in resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomaNARA Subscribed
Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide. Unfortunately, the prognosis of PDAC is rather poor, and for instance, in the USA, over 47,000 people die because of pancreatic cancer annually. Here, we demonstrate that high expression of acid sphingomyelinase in PDAC strongly correlates with long-term survival of patients, as revealed by the analysis of two independent data sources. The positive e...
NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES : A dataset of occurrence and abundance of freshwater fishes in the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
The Neotropical region hosts 4225 freshwater fish species, ranking first among the world's most diverse regions for freshwater fishes. Our NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES data set is the first to produce a large‐scale Neotropical freshwater fish inventory, covering the entire Neotropical region from Mexico and the Caribbean in the north to the southern limits in Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay. We compiled 185,787 distri...
Particles afloat in the ocean are important components of marine element cycles. Most of this particulate matter is suspended in the sunlit surface layer and is mainly composed of microscopic living and dead organisms and fecal pellets. Aggregation of small, suspended particles into large, rapidly sinking aggregates can transport surface-derived material to the deep ocean and the seafloor, contributing to the so-called biolog...
Variations of microbial communities and substrate regimes in the eastern Fram Strait between summer and fallNARA Subscribed
Summary Seasonal variations in day length and temperature, in combination with dynamic factors such as advection from the North Atlantic, influence primary production and the microbial loop in the Fram Strait. Here, we investigated the seasonal variability of biopolymers, microbial abundance and microbial composition within the upper 100 m during summer and fall. Flow cytometry revealed a shift in the autotrophic community fro...
Prochlorococcus extracellular vesicles: molecular composition and adsorption to diverse microbesNARA Subscribed
Summary Extracellular vesicles are small (~50–200 nm diameter) membrane‐bound structures released by cells from all domains of life. While vesicles are abundant in the oceans, their functions, both for cells themselves and the emergent ecosystem, remain a mystery. To better characterize these particles – a prerequisite for determining function – we analysed the lipid, protein, and metabolite content of vesicles produced by the...
Brooded coral offspring physiology depends on the combined effects of parental press and pulse thermal historyNARA Subscribed
Reef‐building corals respond to the temporal integration of both pulse events (i.e., heat waves) and press thermal history (i.e., local environment) via physiological changes, with ecological consequences. We used a “press‐pulse‐press” experimental framework to expose the brooding coral Porites astreoides to various thermal histories to understand the physiological response of temporal dynamics within and across generations. W...
In an investigation of stromatic Xylariales in Thailand, several specimens of Daldinia were discovered. Three novel species ( D. flavogranulata , D. phadaengensis , and D. chiangdaoensis ) were recognized from a molecular phylogeny based on concatenated ITS, LSU, RPB2 , and TUB2 sequence data, combined with morphological characters and secondary metabolite profiles based on high performance liquid chromatography coupled to dio...
