Visualität und Multimodalität in wissenschaftlichen Präsentationen
Abstract In recent times presentations have drawn the attention of scientific interest as a new form of communication. In visualization of abstract structures or relationships in scholarly presentations using diagrams, different medial layers of meaning are conjoined in a very special way. The present paper examines firstly the multimodal structure of presentations and the mechanisms of establishing cross-modality coherence. Then the results of a reception experiment are discussed that gives rise to the assumption that multimodality can in fact improve the understanding of scholarly presentations. In the final part of the paper the production of an abstract visualization in a scholarly presentation is exemplified with regard to the solution of disambiguation and linearization problems. We claim that abstract visualizations in presentations are used to produce narratives by the speaker, and without such narratives this kind of visualization cannot be understood properly.

Assessment of Gap between Knowledge and Practices among Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients at a Tertiary-Care Hospital in Bangladesh
Newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (T2 DM) patients who do not receive diabetes education (DE) have average knowledge on DM, and their practices about diabetes need to be improved. This prompted us to evaluate what happens when old diagnosed patients receive DE. The study therefore assessed the association between knowledge and practices in terms of Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), body mass index (BMI), and waist circumference (WC) among 500 diagnosed T2 DM using a cross-sectional design. An interviewer-administered questionnaire was used for assessing their knowledge. The mean knowledge score of the patients was 15.29 ± 3.6. A significant negative association was found between the knowledge score and the HbA1c level. Age was positively associated with HbA1c and WC. Duration of DM was positively and education was negatively associated with HbA1c. Gender was negatively associated with BMI while income was positively associated with BMI and WC. All the associations were significant. The diagnosed T2 DM patients are deficient of sufficient knowledge; the knowledge score and HbA1c have a significant negative relationship, not other actions. The risk factors for the patients’ outcome include old age, female gender, years of education, economic status, and duration of DM.

Triton Field Trials: Promoting Consistent Environmental Monitoring Methodologies for Marine Energy Sites
Uncertainty surrounding the potential environmental impacts of marine energy (ME) has resulted in extensive and expensive environmental monitoring requirements for ME deployments. Recently, there have been more ME deployments and associated environmental data collection efforts, but no standardized methodologies for data collection. This hinders the use of previously collected data to inform new ME project permitting efforts. Triton Field Trials (TFiT), created at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory by the United States (U.S.) Department of Energy, explores ways to promote more consistent environmental data collection and enable data transferability across ME device types and locations. Documents from 118 previous ME projects or ME-related research studies in the U.S. and internationally were reviewed to identify the highest priority stressor–receptor relationships to be investigated and the technologies and methodologies used to address them. Thirteen potential field sites were assessed to determine suitable locations for testing the performance of relevant monitoring technologies. This introductory paper provides an overview of how priority research areas and associated promising technologies were identified as well as how testing locations were identified for TFiT activities. Through these scoping efforts, TFiT focused on four activity areas: collision risk, underwater noise, electromagnetic fields, and changes in habitat. Technologies and methodologies were tested at field sites in Alaska, Washington, California, and New Hampshire. Detailed information on the effectiveness of the identified methodologies and specific recommendations for each of the four focus areas are included in the companion papers in this Special Issue.

Abstract 10646: The Use of Beta Blockers and Renin Angiotensin System Inhibitors Among Patients with Concurrent HFrEF and Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD)
Introduction: Recent data suggests that patients with concurrent HFrEF and ADRD (HF+ADRD) have markedly higher mortality than HFrEF patients without ADRD. One of the proposed mechanisms for this is a lower rate of guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT) use in the HF+ADRD population. The aim of this study is to determine the change in GDMT use before and after HFrEF hospitalization for patients with HF+ADRD. Methods: We used 100% Medicare Parts A and B and a random 40% sample of Part D to create a cohort of 397,680 fee-for-service beneficiaries with ≥1 hospitalization for HFrEF between 2012 and 2018. We used previously validated ICD-9/10 codes to define ADRD. We created 4 exposure groups for both evidenced-based beta-blockers (BB) and renin angiotensin system inhibitors (RASI): “continued” (on drug before and after hospitalization); “initiated” (not on before, but on after); “discontinued” (on before, but not after) and “never started” (not on before or after). Results: Rates of BB continuation (42% vs. 37%, pTable 1 ). Rates of BB discontinuation (13% vs. 10%, p Conclusions: Rates of BB/RASI continuation and initiation are higher among HFrEF patients without ADRD while rates of BB/RASI discontinuation and never starting are higher among HF+ADRD patients. Additional work is needed to understand why GDMT use is lower in patients with HF+ADRD and to determine whether, in this population, there are adverse outcomes associated with failing to receive GDMT, such as increased HFrEF symptoms, hospital admissions, and mortality.

Numerical Modeling of Sperm Swimming
Due to rising human infertility, sperm motility has been an important subject. Among the hundreds of millions of sperms on the journey up the oviducts, only a few excellent travelers will reach the eggs. This journey is affected by many factors, some of which include sperm quality, sperm density, fluid rheology and chemotaxis. In addition, the sperm swimming through different body tracks and fluids involves complex sperm flagellar, complex fluid environment, and multi-sperm and sperm-wall interactions. Therefore, this topic has generated substantial research interest. In this paper, we present a review of computational studies on sperm swimming from an engineering perspective with focus on both simplified theoretical methods and fluid–structure interaction methods. Several open issues in this field are highlighted.

A new era for castrate resistant prostate cancer: A treatment review and update
Purpose: The purpose of this review article is to present the current treatment options for castrate resistant prostate cancer in addition to the recently approved agents and their role in treatment. Summary: The biology of prostate cancer and the data supporting the use of traditional chemotherapeutic options in castrate resistant prostate cancer are reviewed. The newly approved agents, sipuleucel-T, cabazitaxel, and abiraterone, are presented as well. The studies that led to the approval of these three agents are discussed in this article as well as their current and potential roles in the treatment of castrate resistant prostate cancer. Conclusion: New mechanisms, drugs, and clinically relevant molecular targets show survival advantage and are new options available for patients after traditional chemotherapy. The roles of these new agents have yet to be further clarified in future studies.

Abstract P2-26-10: Statins exhibit an anti-tumor effect by attenuating PD-L1 in breast cancer cells and macrophages and reducing breast tumor progression in xenograft mouse model
Abstract Background: Statins were suggested for repurposed drugs, having multifaceted effects which include anti-tumor activities by modulating the immune response. Here, we aimed to demonstrate the effect of statins on programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells. Methods: Thirteen human TNBC cell lines, mouse macrophage cell line (RAW 264.7), cholesterol and 27-hydroxycholesterol, and clinically approved lovastatin and simvastatin were used. Flow cytometry, Annexin V/propidium iodide assay, western blot, qRT-PCR, transwell migration assay, and immunohistochemistry were employed. A co-culture of macrophages with various breast cancer cells was performed. An orthotopic breast tumor mouse model and metastasis model by injection of GFP-tagged MDA-MB-231 cells into mammary gland fat pad and the tail vein injection were produced. In tumor model mice, lovastatin(10mg/kg) was daily injected intraperitoneally. In vivo fluorescent imaging was used to identify primary tumor development and lung metastasis. Results: Among thirteen TNBC cell lines, MDA-MB-231, HCC38, and HCC70 highly expressed endogenous/constitutive PD-L1. Statins reduced PD-L1 expression and exerted anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects in MDA-MB-231, HCC38, HCC70, and Raw264.7 in a dose- and time-dependent manner (p< 0.05). Meanwhile, statins increased the expression of PD-L1 in Hs578T and MDA-MB-468. STAT3 phosphorylation was inhibited in MDA-MB-231 and HCC70, but not in Hs578T, while AKT phosphorylation was reduced in MDA-MB-231, HCC70, Hs578T, and MDA-MB-468 when statins were treated. The migration of MDA-MB-231 and Raw264.7 in statin-treated conditioned media was decreased (p< 0.05). Cholesterol and 27-hydroxy cholesterol did not restore PD-L1 expression in statin-treated MDA-MB-231. Statins suppressed the expression of M2 markers (PD-L1, CD206, YM-1, Fizz1, arginase-1) in RAW26437 stimulated by a conditioned medium of MDA-MB-231. Lovastatin suppressed the primary tumor growth and metastasis in xenograft tumor mice. Conclusions: Our findings show that statins have an anti-tumor effect, which kills breast cancer cells and triggers macrophage reprogramming by reducing PD-L1 expression, impairing the AKT, ERK, and STAT3 signal pathways, and decreasing M2 markers. Further study is needed to investigate an in-depth molecular mechanism study by which statins regulate PD-L1 expression in TNBC and to confirm the safe and effective use of statins as adjuvant therapy in TNBC.

Lipoblastoma mediastínico en pediatría
Objetivo: Describir dos casos de lipoblastoma mediastínico, patología de baja incidencia y poco conocida, siendo aún más infrecuente en mediastino, sin haber reportes descritos en nuestro país.Casos Clínicos: 2 pacientes, ambos de sexo masculino, menores de 3 años, en los que se encontró como hallazgo incidental una masa mediastínica en una radiografía de tórax. El estudio se complementó con una tomografía computada y en uno de los pacientes con una biopsia toracoscópica. En ambos se logró extirpación completa de la lesión vía toracotomía, siendo apoyado vía toracoscópica previa a la extracción de la lesión en uno de ellos. Uno de los pacientes evolucionó con Síndrome de Claude Bernard Horner el cual resolvió de manera espontánea luego de dos años y el segundo caso no presentó complicaciones.Conclusiones: el lipoblastoma mediastínico es una patología muy poco frecuente, las descripciones de la literatura se asemejan a los casos expuestos en este artículo, concluyendo que presentan un patrón muy similar entre ellos. Teniendo un pronóstico favorable si se logra la resección completa y siendo fundamental diferenciarlo de sus diagnósticos diferenciales para descartar malignidad.

Fault Tolerance Analysis of Five-Level Neutral-Point-Clamped Inverters under Clamping Diode Open-Circuit Failure
Multilevel inverters are increasingly used in industrial applications in which service continuity is crucial. This paper presents an original approach to ensure the fault-tolerant operation of neutral-point-clamped (NPC) inverters in the case of an open-circuit fault event in a clamping diode, which is rarely investigated in the conducted research work. The proposed fault-tolerant strategy meets the following criteria: restoring rated output voltage and current during post-fault operation, realizing fault-tolerant operation without additional components, maintaining rated total harmonic distortion (THD) during fault-tolerant operation, and fast transition between faulty operation and remedial operation. In the proposed approach, prior to applying the appropriate remedial action, identification of the defective clamping diode is required. In this respect, a very fast and simple logic-based fault diagnosis is presented whose implementation does not need any additional components and external circuit. Moreover, it does not require any component modeling and complicated calculations. The proposed strategy is validated by simulation and experimentation.
