Abstract
The advancing digitalisation is one of the great challenges of our times. Related activities also concern the wastewater sector. In the field of building construction, one emerging approach is building information modelling (BIM). The presented work investigates to which extent BIM practices have already found their way to wastewater management, and what kind of benefits and constraints are incorporated. Information is collected by means of a literature review and international expert surveys. Results indicate that several BIM-related key elements are already well established in the sector, but not necessarily in the intended manner. Consequently, the digital transition in the wastewater sector is not about replacing existing procedures and techniques but to rethink and optimise them. This primarily concerns data and information management in combination with the application of digital tools. Furthermore, wastewater management requires more integrated approaches, involving interdisciplinary/collaborative concepts and life cycle perspectives. Appropriate change management is necessary to give support and guidance to employees during the transition process. Furthermore, also from the political side, a clear definition and communication of the pursued digital vision is important. This article aims at stimulating discussion and research to optimise wastewater management from the digital perspective.

Abstract
The first measurement of lepton-jet momentum imbalance and azimuthal correlation in lepton-proton scattering at high momentum transfer is presented. These data, taken with the H1 detector at HERA, are corrected for detector effects using an unbinned machine learning algorithm (multifold), which considers eight observables simultaneously in this first application. The unfolded cross sections are compared with calculations performed within the context of collinear or transverse-momentum-dependent factorization in quantum chromodynamics as well as Monte Carlo event generators.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An effective treatment is needed for long-COVID patients which suffer from symptoms of vision and/or cognition impairment such as impaired attention, memory, language comprehension, or fatigue. OBJECTIVE Because COVID-19infection causes reduced blood flow which may cause neuronal inactivation, we explored if neuromodulation with non-invasive brain stimulation using microcurrent (NIBS), known to enhance blood flow and neuronal synchronization, can reduce these symptoms. METHODS Two female long-COVID patients were treated for 10-13 days with alternating current stimulation of the eyes and brain. While one patient (age 40) was infected with the SARS CoV-2 virus, the other (age 72) developed symptoms following AstraZeneca vaccination. Before and after therapy, cognition was assessed subjectively by interview and visual fields quantified using perimetry. One patient was also tested with a cognitive test battery and with a retinal dynamic vascular analyser (DVA), a surrogate marker of vascular dysregulation in the brain. RESULTS In both patients NIBS markedly improved cognition and partially reversed visual field loss within 3-4 days. Cognitive tests in one patient confirmed recovery of up to 40-60% in cognitive subfunctions with perimetry results showing stable and visual field recovery even during follow-up. DVA showed that NIBS reduced vascular dysregulation by normalizing vessel dynamics (dilation/constriction), with particularly noticeable changes in the peripheral veins and arteries. CONCLUSIONS NIBS was effective in improving visual and cognitive deficits in two confirmed SARS-COV-2 patients. Because recovery of function was associated with restoration of vascular autoregulation, we propose that (i) hypometabolic, "silent" neurons are the likely biological cause of long-COVID associated visual and cognitive deficits, and (ii) reoxygenation of these "silent" neurons provides the basis for neural reactivation and neurological recovery. Controlled trials are now needed to confirm these observations.

Abstract
Background HIV prevalence in correctional facilities may be 2 to 10 times higher than in the general adult population. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) interruption is frequent after an incarceration. This, in combination with post-release high-risk behaviors, may have detrimental consequences on the epidemic. Although return to care after release from correctional facilities has been described in many North American settings, data from South America seemed scarce. French Guiana is the only French territory located in South America. In 2014, HIV prevalence was estimated at 1.2% among pregnant women and oscillated around 4% in the only correctional facility. Method HIV-infected adults released from the French Guiana correctional facility between 2007 and 2013 were included in a retrospective cohort survey. The first objective was to describe the cascade of care in the 4 years following release. The secondary objectives were to describe contacts with care and to identify factors associated with return to HIV care, 1 year after release. Results We included 147 people, mostly males (81.6%). The median time before the first ambulatory consultation was 1.8 months. Within 1 year after release, 27.9% came for unscheduled emergency consultations, 22.4% were hospitalized. Within 4 years after release, 40.0–46.5% were in care, 22.4% archieved virological success. Being on ART when incarcerated was associated with HIV care (aIRR: 2.0, CI: 1.2–3.0), whereas being HIV-diagnosed during the last incarceration was associated with poor follow-up (aIRR: 0.3, CI: 0.1–0.9). Conclusion The risk of HIV-follow-up interruption is high, after an incarceration with HIV. ART supply should be sufficient to cover the timespan following release, several months if possible. Those not on ART at the time of incarceration may require special attention, especially those newly HIV-diagnosed while in custody. Comprehensive programs are necessary to support ex-offenders to stay on ART after incarceration.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION More than 30 million adults are released from incarceration globally each year. Many experience complex physical and mental health problems, and are at markedly increased risk of preventable mortality. Despite this, evidence regarding the global epidemiology of mortality following release from incarceration is insufficient to inform the development of targeted, evidence-based responses. Many previous studies have suffered from inadequate power and poor precision, and even large studies have limited capacity to disaggregate data by specific causes of death, sub-populations or time since release to answer questions of clinical and public health relevance. OBJECTIVES To comprehensively document the incidence, timing, causes and risk factors for mortality in adults released from prison. METHODS We created the Mortality After Release from Incarceration Consortium (MARIC), a multi-disciplinary collaboration representing 29 cohorts of adults who have experienced incarceration from 11 countries. Findings across cohorts will be analysed using a two-step, individual participant data meta-analysis methodology. RESULTS The combined sample includes 1,337,993 individuals (89% male), with 75,795 deaths recorded over 9,191,393 person-years of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS The consortium represents an important advancement in the field, bringing international attention to this problem. It will provide internationally relevant evidence to guide policymakers and clinicians in reducing preventable deaths in this marginalized population. KEY WORDS Mortality; incarceration; prison; release; individual participant data meta-analysis; consortium; cohort.

Abstract
We describe the design and implementation of a stable high-power 1064 nm laser system to generate optical lattices for experiments with ultracold quantum gases. The system is based on a low-noise laser amplified by an array of four heavily modified, high-power fiber amplifiers. The beam intensity is stabilized and controlled with a nonlinear feedback loop. Using real-time monitoring of the resulting optical lattice, we find the stability of the lattice site positions to be well below the lattice spacing over the course of hours. The position of the harmonic trap produced by the Gaussian envelope of the lattice beams is stable to about one lattice spacing and the long-term (six-month) relative root-mean-square stability of the lattice spacing itself is 0.5%.

Abstract
We describe a method to produce U2O5 films in situ using the Labstation, a modular machine developed at JRC Karlsruhe. The Labstation, an essential part of the Properties of Actinides under Extreme Conditions laboratory (PAMEC), allows the preparation of films and studies of sample surfaces using surface analytical techniques such as X-ray and ultra-violet photoemission spectroscopy (XPS and UPS, respectively). All studies are made in situ, and the films, transferred under ultra-high vacuum from their preparation to an analyses chamber, are never in contact with the atmosphere. Initially, a film of UO2 is prepared by direct current (DC) sputter deposition on a gold (Au) foil then oxidized by atomic oxygen to produce a UO3 film. This latter is then reduced with atomic hydrogen to U2O5. Analyses are performed after each step involving oxidation and reduction, using high-resolution photoelectron spectroscopy to examine the oxidation state of uranium. Indeed, the oxidation and reduction times and corresponding temperature of the substrate during this process have severe effects on the resulting oxidation state of the uranium. Stopping the reduction of UO3 to U2O5 with single U(V) is quite challenging; first, uranium-oxygen systems exist in numerous intermediate phases. Second, differentiation of the oxidation states of uranium is mainly based on satellite peaks, whose intensity peaks are weak. Also, experimenters should be aware that X-ray spectroscopy (XPS) is a technique with an atomic sensitivity of 1% to 5%. Thus, it is important to obtain a complete picture of the uranium oxidation state with the entire spectra obtained on U4f, O1s, and the valence band (VB). Programs used in the Labstation include a linear transfer program developed by an outside company (see Table of Materials) as well as data acquisition and sputter source programs, both developed in-house.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This survey aimed to determine the influence of physician evaluation portals (PEP) on a patient's choice of physicians, particularly orthodontists. MATERIALS AND METHODS Questionnaires were used to collect sociodemographic data, reasons for orthodontist selection, type of Internet use, as well as information on the knowledge, use and evaluation of 14 popular PEPs. A total of 506 questionnaires were evaluated, and a descriptive statistical evaluation was conducted using the χ2 test. RESULTS The majority of the respondents selected orthodontists on the basis of personal recommendations by other physicians (35%), family/friends (33%) or patient referral (14%). Currently, the most popular portals in Germany, which are mostly found through Internet searches, are jameda.de (36%) and arztauskunft.de (19%). A total of 5% of the respondents have already used a PEP to evaluate a physician. Moreover, 70% of the respondents described PEPs as helpful, 28% as recommendable and 2% use PEPs regularly. Knowledge of PEPs is correlated with the level of educational attainment (p = 0.024) and the frequency of Internet use (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION On the selection of healthcare providers, particularly orthodontists, PEPs have little influence. Patients select physicians on the basis of personal recommendations. Physicians' concerns about negative evaluations on PEPs are unfounded given the low level of awareness of PEPs by the general populace.

Abstract
The strong coupling constant α s is determined from inclusive jet and dijet cross sections in neutral-current deep-inelastic ep scattering (DIS) measured at HERA by the H1 collaboration using next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD predictions. The dependence of the NNLO predictions and of the resulting value ofα s ( m Z ) at the Z-boson mass m Z are studied as a function of the choice of the renormalisation and factorisation scales. Using inclusive jet and dijet data together, the strong coupling constant is determined to beα s ( m Z ) = 0.1157 ( 20 ) exp ( 29 ) th . Complementary,α s ( m Z ) is determined together with parton distribution functions of the proton (PDFs) from jet and inclusive DIS data measured by the H1 experiment. The valueα s ( m Z ) = 0.1142 ( 28 ) tot obtained is consistent with the determination from jet data alone. The impact of the jet data on the PDFs is studied. The running of the strong coupling is tested at different values of the renormalisation scale and the results are found to be in agreement with expectations.

Abstract
Scanning probe microscopy can be used to probe the internal atomic structure of flat organic molecules. This technique requires an unreactive tip and has, until now, been demonstrated only at liquid helium and liquid nitrogen temperatures. We demonstrate intramolecular and intermolecular force contrast at room temperature on PTCDA molecules adsorbed on a Ag/Si(111)-(√[3]×√[3]) surface. The oscillating force sensor allows us to dynamically measure the vertical decay constant of the tunneling current. The precision of this method is increased by quantifying the transimpedance of the current to voltage converter and accounting for the tip oscillation. This measurement yields a clear contrast between neighboring molecules, which we attribute to the different charge states.

Abstract
The response of two well-characterized human breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231) to a series of nutrient deficiencies is investigated with a label-free cell assay platform. The motivation of the research is to analyze adaptive responses of tumor cell metabolism and to find limiting conditions for cell survival. The platform measures extracellular values of pH and dissolved oxygen saturation to provide data of extracellular acidification rates and oxygen uptake rates. Additional electric cell substrate impedance sensing and bright-field cell imaging supports the data interpretation by providing information about cell morphological parameters. A sequential administration of nutrient depletions does not cause metabolic reprogramming, since the ratios of oxygen uptake to acidification return to their basal values. While the extracellular acidification drops sharply upon reduction of glucose and glutamine, the oxygen uptake is not affected. In contrast to other published data, cell death is not observed when both glucose and glutamine are depleted and cell proliferation is not inhibited, at least in MCF-7 cultures. It is assumed that residual concentrations of nutrients from the serum component are able to maintain cell viability when delivered regularly by active flow like in the cell assay platform, and, in a similar way, under physiological conditions.

Abstract
Die Acidolyse von Tetraorganoplumbanen PbR4 mit verschiedenen aciden Verbindungen HX (z. B. CH3COOH, CF3COOH, CCl3COOH, C (CH3)3COOH) wurde hinsichtlich des Einflusses der Reste R und der Acidität von HX auf die präparative Anwendbarkeit dieser Reaktion zur Darstellung von R3PbX und/bzw. R2PbX2 untersucht.
Tetraphenylplumban reagierte in allen Fällen deutlich schneller mit HX als Tetraalkylplumbane.
Mit Trifluoressigsäure ließen sich (alkyl) 3PbX, (alkyl) 2PbX2 und (C8H5) 2PbX2, nicht jedoch (C6H5) 3PbX gewinnen.
Trimethylessigsäure reagiert mit Pb (alkyl) 4 so langsam, daß Zersetzungsreaktionen überwogen und die Darstellung von hydrolysierbarem (!) (C2H5)2PbX2 nur unter SiO2-Katalyse gelang.
Pb (II) -Verbindungen entstanden in mehr oder weniger großer Menge besonders dann, wenn bei der Acidolyse Carbonsäuren bzw. deren Derivate oder HS-acide Verbindungen (C6H5SH, HOCH2CH2SH) eingesetzt wurden.

Abstract
Malignant melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, is characterized by a predominant mutation in the BRAF gene. Drugs that target tumours carrying this mutation have recently entered the clinic. Accordingly, patients are routinely screened for mutations in this gene to determine whether they can benefit from this type of treatment. The current gold standard for mutation screening uses real-time polymerase chain reaction and sequencing methods. Here we show that an assay based on microcantilever arrays can detect the mutation nanomechanically without amplification in total RNA samples isolated from melanoma cells. The assay is based on a BRAF-specific oligonucleotide probe. We detected mutant BRAF at a concentration of 500 pM in a 50-fold excess of the wild-type sequence. The method was able to distinguish melanoma cells carrying the mutation from wild-type cells using as little as 20 ng µl(-1) of RNA material, without prior PCR amplification and use of labels.

Abstract
Despite their overwhelming complexity, living cells display a high degree of internal mechanical and functional organization which can largely be attributed to the intracellular biopolymer scaffold, the cytoskeleton. Being a very complex system far from thermodynamic equilibrium, the cytoskeleton's ability to organize is at the same time challenging and fascinating. The extensive amounts of frequently interacting cellular building blocks and their inherent multifunctionality permits highly adaptive behavior and obstructs a purely reductionist approach. Nevertheless (and despite the field's relative novelty), the physics approach has already proved to be extremely successful in revealing very fundamental concepts of cytoskeleton organization and behavior. This review aims at introducing the physics of the cytoskeleton ranging from single biopolymer filaments to multicellular organisms. Throughout this wide range of phenomena, the focus is set on the intertwined nature of the different physical scales (levels of complexity) that give rise to numerous emergent properties by means of self-organization or self-assembly.

Abstract
We studied tracer (Tritiated Water (HTO); Tritium replaces one of the stable hydrogen atoms in the H(2)O molecule) and nanoparticle (quantum dots (QD)) transport by means of column migration experiments and comparison to 3D CFD modeling. Concerning the modeling approach, a natural single fracture was scanned using micro computed tomography (μCT) serving as direct input for the model generation. The 3D simulation does not incorporate any chemical processes besides the molecular diffusion coefficient solely reflecting the impact of fracture heterogeneity on mass (solute and nanoparticles) transport. Complex fluid velocity distributions (flow channeling and flowpath heterogeneity) evolve as direct function of fracture geometry. Both experimental and simulated solute and colloidal breakthrough curves show heavy tailing (non-Fickian transport behavior), respectively. Regarding the type of quantum dots and geochemical conditions prevailing (Grimsel ground water chemistry, QD and diorite surface charge, respectively and porosity of the Äspö diorite drill core) experimental breakthrough of the quantum dots always arrives faster than the solute tracer in line with the modeling results. Besides retardation processes like sorption, filtration, straining or matrix diffusion, the results show that natural 3D fracture heterogeneity represents an important additional retardation mechanism for solutes and colloidal phases. This is clearly verified by the numerical simulations, where the 3D real natural fracture geometry and the resulting complex flow velocity distribution is the only possible process causing solute/nanoparticle retardation. Differences between the experimental results and the simulations are discussed with respect to uncertainties in the μCT measurements and experimental and simulation boundary conditions, respectively.

Abstract
AbstractThe surface adsorption and reaction of water with PuO2thin films was investigated by X-ray and ultra-violet photoelectron spectroscopies (XPS and UPS, respectively). Initial motivation of the work was to further investigate the potential role of water in promoting the surface oxidation of PuO2to Pu(IV)/Pu(V) mixed oxides formerly discussed in literature which may seriously impede the stability of spent nuclear fuel. Water may act as oxidant, as catalyst for the oxidation by O2, or as reactant leading to formation of hydrous oxide being oxidized by O2instead of PuO2(cr). In order to obtain high water coverage under the experimentally required ultra-high vacuum conditions, water was adsorbed at low temperature (77 K) as thick ice film. Results were compared to thin water layers adsorbed at room temperature.When adsorbed at 298 K, water dissociates forming a thin hydroxyl (OH−) layer with small amounts of molecularly adsorbed water but no further reaction (in the sense of oxidation or reduction) is detected. At 77 K, water condenses as ice film. Here, a mainly non-dissociative adsorption of water is observed for layers ∼1 ML while for higher dosages, only molecular water/ice is observed and no significant contribution of OH (in the water layers) is detected. When exposing the sample to UV light while warming it up, the ice layer thaws and desorbs leaving behind a Pu2O3surface. This surprising reduction of PuO2stands in sharp contrast to the radiolytically driven oxidation of spent fuel in presence of water. It is discussed in terms of a photochemically driven interface reaction.

Abstract
Abstract
Thin films of the actinides from Th to Am were investigated concerning their oxidation with molecular oxygen and the more reactive atomic oxygen. Photoemission spectroscopy was used to perform chemical analysis of the surface/near surface (bulk) region of actinide thin films produced by sputter deposition, therewith giving insight into oxidation and corrosion processes on these surfaces, as well as providing direct evidence on their electronic structure. Reaction intermediates (chemisorbed species, top-surface oxides) and the stable bulk oxides were identified and characterised. Their formation throughout the actinide series is interpreted in the framework of the electronic structure information.

Abstract
We present the results of x-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy of NpPd(3) and PuPd(3). The spectra indicate that for both compounds, the 5f electrons are well localized on the actinide sites. Comparison with bulk measurements indicates that for NpPd(3) the electrons have a valence of Np(3+) and thus a ground state 5f(4) with a Hund's rules (5)I(4) configuration. Similarly for PuPd(3), we find a Pu(3+) valence, 5f(5) ground state and a Hund's rules (6)H(5/2) configuration.

Abstract
Risk factors for death in an HIV-infected cohort in French Guiana were studied in 1374 patients between 1996 and 2005. Of these patients, 48.5% were male and 76% were immigrants. Covariates were measured at the time of consultation. There were 223 deaths. Addictions [adjusted hazard ratio (HR)=13; 95% confidence interval (CI) 5.5-30.6; P<0.001], age>60 years (HR=1.5; 95% CI 0.9-2.5; P=0.13), male gender (HR=1.5; 95% CI 1.03-2.5; P=0.03) and CD4 count<50 cells/microL (HR=9.1; 95% CI 5.1-16.3; P<0.001) were independently associated with death. These results suggest that strategies promoting early diagnosis and better follow-up of addicted patients would have a significant impact on mortality.
