Ethische Herausforderungen der COVID-19-Pandemie im internationalen Vergleich: Erkenntnisse aus 39 Expert*inneninterviews
(2025-03-06)Since spring 2020, the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus has spread worldwide, causing profound medical, political, economic, cultural, and bioethical challenges in the ensuing pandemic. While the resulting conflicts initially appeared ... -
Optogenetic characterization of targeting-optimized Chronos and f-Chrimson variants for auditory encoding in mice
(2024-12-03)Electrical cochlear implants bypass the physiological micromechanics and synaptic sound encoding by sensory hair cells in the cochlea and provide state-of-the-art treatment of sensorineural hearing loss. To overcome the ... -
Evaluation of desmoplastic and replacement type histopathological growth patterns of colorectal cancer liver metastases at single-cell resolution
(2024-09-10)This thesis project evaluated molecular differences between desmoplastic and replacement colorectal liver metastases, with the focus on the heterogeneity between ECs in livers colonized by CRCLM. Stratifying the sample ... -
Exakte Methoden zur Analyse von Changepoints in binomial-verteilten Sequenzen mit verbesserter Power bei kleinen Fallzahlen
(2024-05-03)Several asymptotic and exact methods exist to detect a change in a sequence of independent binomial random variables. Whenever the sample size or the event rate is small, asymptotic methods may suffer from type I error ... -
Extending the classical histological routine through microcomputed tomography imaging and multimodal image processing
(2024-04-08)Histological analysis has proven to be the de facto gold standard for the characterization of hard and soft tissue samples at cellular resolution in both clinical routine and biomedical research. After the tissue sample ... -
Molekulare und elektrophysiologische Untersuchung der Exozytose in der Maus-Cochlea
(2023-12-20)The afferent synapses between inner hair cells (IHC) and spiral ganglion neurons are specialized to faithfully encode sound with sub-millisecond precision over prolonged periods of time. Here, I studied the role of Rab3 ... -
Gesundheitsbezogene Lebensqualität von Kindern, Jugendlichen und Erwachsenen nach einem Schädel-Hirn-Trauma
(2023-12-07)Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is considered as a major burden on public healthcare systems worldwide. The negative consequences of TBI might affect various aspects of people’s lives, leading to enormous negative effects on ... -
Physical activity and developmental psychopathology in children and adolescents: cross-sectional, longitudinal follow-up and concurrent developmental relationships
(2023-09-26)The current cumulative dissertation aimed to investigate the cross-sectional and longitudinal relationships between mental health problems, including symptoms of ADHD, and physical activity (PA) in children and adolescents. ... -
Klinische und polysomnografische Charakteristika von Patienten mit Restless-Legs-Syndrom unter Augmentation
(2023-05-30)Restless legs syndrome (RLS), as a circadian movement disorder, can have a high impact on the quality of sleep and everyday life. For RLS-treatment multiple substances including dopamine agonists are recommended in the ... -
Direct optogenetic stimulation of smooth muscle cells to control gastric contractility
(2023-05-02)Rationale: Antral peristalsis is responsible for gastric emptying. Its failure is called gastroparesis and often caused by dysfunction of enteric neurons and interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC). Current treatment options, ... -
Methods for Blinded Sample Size Recalculation in Adaptive Enrichment Designs
(2022-12-21)In precision medicine the potential heterogeneity of patient populations becomes more accessible through technical and medical innovations. A population might be heterogeneous and different strata may in turn respond ... -
Extracellular vesicles derived from adipose mesenchymal stem cells (AMSCs) reduce autophagic flux via microRNA-25-3p transfer after ischemic stroke
(2022-03-03)Causal therapy of ischemic stroke remains available to only a minority of patients despite the success of systemic thrombolysis and thrombectomy. Consequently, new adjuvant therapeutic options are urgently needed. MSC ... -
Ethische Implikationen der Prädiktion und Früherkennung einer Late-onset-Demenz
(2021-06-24)The focus on diagnosing dementia as early as possible has entered clinical practice, often supported by the use of an increasing number of available biomarkers. New diagnostics in this topic area are the subject of intense ... -
Blinded Sample Size Re-estimation for Longitudinal Overdispersed Count Data in Randomized Clinical Trials with an Application in Multiple Sclerosis
(2021-02-22)In many clinical experiments, particularly in randomized clinical trials, the sample size required needs to be assessed and justified. For calculating a clinical trial’s sample size, assumptions have to be made regarding ... -
