MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data of 50 consecutive patients, who underwent HPB surgery from 04/2018 to 07/2018 were prospectively collected for this study. During surgery, IOUS with a high-resolution ultrasound device using CEUS after bolus injection of 2.4-5 ml Sulphur hexafluoride microbubbles using a 6-9 MHz probe and a share wave and strain elastography was performed by an experienced examiner. Process and time analysis were carried out using mobile phone timer. RESULTS: The IOUS with CEUS and elastography correctly identified 42 malignant tumors and 4 benign lesions. In 3 cases, the examination provided false positive result (identifying 3 benign lesions as malignant) and in 1 case a malignant lesion was incorrectly assessed as benign (sensitivity 97,7\%, specificity 57,1\%, PPV 93,3\% and NPV 80\%). The specific question by the surgeon could be answered successfully in 98\% of the cases. In 76\% of the cases, there was a modification (42\%) or a fundamental change (34\%) of the planned surgical approach due to the information provided by the IOUS. Within the last group, the IOUS had a major impact on therapy outcome. In 7 patients an additional tumor resection was required, in 5 patients the tumor was assessed as inoperable, and in total in 5 patients an intraoperative RFA (4/5) or postoperative RITA (1/5) was required. Regarding procedural input, there was only a slight, but significant difference between the transport and set-up times before the intraoperative use (mean: 14 min 22 s) and the return transport (mean 13 min 6 s), (p = 0,038). The average examination time was 14 minutes, which makes only one third of the overall time demand. CONCLUSION: Combination of IOUS with CEUS and elastography in oncological HPB surgery provides valuable information that affects surgical decision-making. The procedural input of about 45 minutes seems to be a good investment considering the improvement of the surgical procedure and a significant modification of the therapy approach in the majority of the cases.}, language = {en} } @misc{BielefeldtBasenerKhanetal., author = {Bielefeldt, Jens and Basener, Kai-Uwe and Khan, Siddique R. and Massah, Mozhdeh and Wiesbrock, Hans-Werner and Scharoba, Stefan and H{\"u}bner, Michael}, title = {DeepTest: How Machine Learning Can Improve the Test of Embedded Systems }, series = {10th Mediterranean Conference on Embedded Computing (MECO), 7-10 June 2021}, journal = {10th Mediterranean Conference on Embedded Computing (MECO), 7-10 June 2021}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Piscataway, NJ}, isbn = {978-1-6654-3912-1}, doi = {10.1109/meco52532.2021.9460182}, pages = {1 -- 6}, language = {en} } @misc{ScharobaBasenerBielefeldtetal., author = {Scharoba, Stefan and Basener, Kai-Uwe and Bielefeldt, Jens and Wiesbrock, Hans-Werner and H{\"u}bner, Michael}, title = {Towards Machine Learning Support for Embedded System Tests}, series = {24th Euromicro Conference on Digital System Design, DSD 2021, virtual conference, 1-3 September 2021}, journal = {24th Euromicro Conference on Digital System Design, DSD 2021, virtual conference, 1-3 September 2021}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Piscataway, NJ}, isbn = {978-1-6654-2703-6}, doi = {10.1109/dsd53832.2021.00034}, pages = {166 -- 173}, language = {en} } @misc{BielefeldtBasenerKhanetal., author = {Bielefeldt, Jens and Basener, Kai-Uwe and Khan, Siddique R. and Massah, Mozhdeh and Wiesbrock, Hans-Werner and Scharoba, Stefan and H{\"u}bner, Michael}, title = {Einsatz von Deep Learning f{\"u}r den Test Eingebetteter Systeme }, series = {Informatik 2021: computer science \& sustainability, 27.

Little is known about fire ecology in this region, and therefore, appropriate approaches for the management and reforestation of burned sites are mostly lacking. In a Scots pine plantation region in Brandenburg (northeast Germany), the early tree regeneration of two nearby areas that burned 1 year apart was investigated. We observed that 3 years after the fire events, the forest in one study area showed a relatively high regeneration with a mean density of 7765 saplings/ha, clearly dominated by European aspen (93\%); whereas the other study area showed a lower mean density of 5061 saplings/ha, dominated by Scots pine (71\%) and aspen (15\%). Three years after the fires, the difference in aspen density was 11-fold between the two areas. We studied the effects of several variables about soil and environmental properties on the aspen establishment in these two study areas in the second and third years after the fire events. We found that the post-fire aspen regeneration was influenced by several factors, including soil texture, soil disturbance from forest management, volume of deadwood, and browsing. We also discussed that weather conditions during seed production and germination might have played a role in the difference in aspen establishment between the two study areas. We concluded that the post-fire forest regeneration potential in the study region is highly variable and could come under critical pressure as climate change progresses.}, language = {en} } @incollection{UlrichSchlegelMertensetal., author = {Ulrich, Rainer G. and Schlegel, Matthias and Mertens, Marc and Groschup, Martin H. and Schmidt-Chanasit, Jonas and Plenge-B{\"o}nig, Anita and Jacob, Jens and Pelz, Hans-Joachim and Freise, Jona and Wenk, Matthias and Thiel, J{\"o}rg and Triebenbacher, Cornelia and Schmolz, Eric and Kurth, Andreas and Kr{\"u}ger, Frank and R{\"u}he, Ferdinand and Kiffner, Christian and Ansorge, Hermann and Gerwin, Werner and Wegener, Wolfgang and M{\"u}ller, J{\"o}rg and Bemmann, Margit and Wolf, Ronny and Otto, Lutz-Florian and Oehme, Rainer and Pfeffer, Martin and Heckel, Gerald and Schex, Susanne and Essbauer, Sandra S.}, title = {Netzwerk Nagetier-{\"u}bertragene Pathogene: Monitoring von Hantavirus-Infektionen in Deutschland}, series = {Wildhygiene, Wildtierkrankheiten, Parasiten, Epidemiologie}, booktitle = {Wildhygiene, Wildtierkrankheiten, Parasiten, Epidemiologie}, publisher = {Ges. f{\"u}r Wildtier- und Jagdforschung}, address = {Halle/Saale}, isbn = {978-378-88131-2-3}, issn = {1436-3895}, pages = {229 -- 250}, language = {de} } @misc{HuettlGerwinKoegelKnabneretal., author = {H{\"u}ttl, Reinhard F. and Gerwin, Werner and K{\"o}gel-Knabner, Ingrid and Schulin, Rainer and Hinz, Christoph and Subke, Jens-Arne}, title = {Ecosystems in transition: interactions and feedbacks with an amphasis on the initial development}, series = {Biogeosciences}, volume = {11}, journal = {Biogeosciences}, doi = {doi:10.5194/bg-11-195-2014}, pages = {195 -- 200}, abstract = {In this Special Issue of Biogeosciences on "Ecosystems in transition: Interactions and feedbacks with an emphasis on the initial development", we bring together research on ecosystems undergoing state transitions, including artificially created and naturally formed sites, most of them in an initial stage of development. State transitions of an ecosystem may occur either when a formerly stable system state is disturbed or when a developing system gradually achieves new functions during succession. This special issue presents a collection of observational and experimental studies that focus on processes occurring during state transitions in the development of ecosystems and provide insights into the feedback mechanisms controlling them. These state transitions are studied at multiple scales, ranging from the pore scale to the catchment scale. The contributions collected in this issue can be divided into two main groups: (i) studies dealing with state transition occurring in initial ecosystems without active human interference, and (ii) studies dealing with active restoration of ecosystems after severe disturbances.}, language = {en} } @misc{HeinkenBlumroederAdhikarietal., author = {Heinken, Thilo and Blumr{\"o}der, Jeanette S. and Adhikari, Yojana and Balthasar, Cathrina and Binder, Anja and Birkhofer, Klaus and Bischoff, Antje and Brosinsky, Arlena and Bubner, Ben and Clerc, Danica and Djoudi, El Aziz and Dobkowitz, Sophia and Francke, Till and Gerwin, Werner and Hartong, Heinrich and Hess, Carsten and Jarling, Ren{\´e} and Jouy, Florent and Leinen, Loretta and Meißner, Andreas and Raab, Thomas and Repmann, Frank and R{\"o}nnefarth, Susanne and Schaaf, Wolfgang and Schirrmacher, Marina and Schmehl, Marie-Therese and Schmitt, Thomas and Schr{\"o}der, Jens and Sch{\"u}le, Maren and Sturm, Knut and Welle, Torsten and Ibisch, Pierre L.}, title = {PYROPHOB - A post-fire ecosystem research project to inform management for resilient forest development}, series = {Tuexenia}, volume = {44}, journal = {Tuexenia}, issn = {0722-494X}, doi = {10.14471/2024.44.004}, pages = {35}, abstract = {PYROPHOB (fire-resistant) is the name of an interdisciplinary research project that is running for five years from 2020 to 2025. In this project, eight institutions are investigating the ecological effects of wildfires and subsequent forest management strategies in pine forests (plantations) in Brandenburg (NE Germany), with the aim of formulating practical recommendations for managing fire-prone forests and the effective restoration of post-fire forest areas. We provide a brief overview of what is known about the effects of wildfire on abiotic and biotic parameters in temperate pine forests, as well as the effects of silvicultural treatments. To date, we know little about how different components of biodiversity are linked in post-fire forest ecosystems and how management affects their functioning. By describing the project, we illustrate the requirements for the implementation of such an applied research project. We emphasize the importance of the study design for dealing with interdisciplinary questions and for the quantitative synthesis of research results. The project comprises a set of standardised field plots in two wildfire areas covering different post-fire management options. Fifteen study sites were established, including two reference sites in unburned pine stands, each with ten study plots as replicates. In situ nitrogen mineralisation, litter decomposition tests and soil biological activity are used for soil biological characterisation. Microclimate data is measured continuously. Standing and lying dead wood and tree regeneration are recorded as key indicators of the success of forestry treatments. Further methods com-prise terrestrial laser scanning, remote sensing techniques as well as surveys of vegetation and above and below ground biomass. Identification of fruiting body-forming fungi, phytoparasites and ectomycorrhizal fungi is supported by marker gene sequencing. Faunistic indicators comprise predatory soil arthropods (pairs of emergence tents and soil traps), saproxylic beetles (flight traps and funnel traps), moths (automated window traps), mammals (camera traps), and breeding birds (visual and acoustic observation). We discuss the strengths and limitations of the project design. We are able to systematically capture short-term temporal shifts in parameters and trends in post-fire ecosystem development. Research in a real landscape with ongoing environmental changes and interventions pres-ents challenges for experimental design, data analysis and interpretation. The drivers of ecosystem development are rarely completely independent or perfectly balanced, and lack of replication is ine-vitable. The two fires did not occur in the same year and season, resulting in different initial conditions for the colonisation of the burned areas. Finally, a large part of one study area was again affected by a fire in 2022, which destroyed direct comparability with the other sites. Despite these obstacles the project has started to generate valuable results to address management and conservation challenges.}, language = {en} } @misc{SchmehlAdhikariBalthasaretal., author = {Schmehl, Marie-Therese and Adhikari, Yojana and Balthasar, Cathrina and Binder, Anja and Clerc, Danica and Dobkowitz, Sophia and Gerwin, Werner and G{\"u}nther, Kristin and Hartong, Heinrich and Heinken, Thilo and Hess, Carsten and Ibisch, Pierre L. and Jouy, Florent and Leinen, Loretta and Raab, Thomas and Repmann, Frank and R{\"o}nnefarth, Susanne and Rohlfs, Lilly and Schirrmacher, Marina and Schr{\"o}der, Jens and Sch{\"u}le, Maren and Vieth-Hillebrand, Andrea and Francke, Till}, title = {Monitoring abiotic and biotic parameters of forest regrowth under different management regimes on former wildfire sites in northeastern Germany - data from the PYROPHOB project}, series = {Earth system science data}, volume = {17}, journal = {Earth system science data}, number = {11}, publisher = {Copernicus GmbH}, address = {G{\"o}ttingen}, issn = {1866-3516}, doi = {10.5194/essd-17-6295-2025}, pages = {6295 -- 6313}, abstract = {We present the data recorded by eight institutions within the PYROPHOB project, running from 2020 to 2024 at two forest research sites in the south-west of Brandenburg, Germany. The aim of the project was to monitor abiotic and biotic parameters of forest regrowth under different management regimes on former wildfire sites in northeastern Germany. The observations comprised intermittent and continuous measurements or surveys on meteorological parameters (rainfall, temperature, vapour pressure deficit), soil (soil type and texture, soil chemistry and leaching, water content, soil temperature), deadwood, stand structure, vegetation regrowth, abundance of selected fauna (moths, beetles, mammals), UAV-based remote sensing (stand structure, spatial overview), and photo monitoring (succession).
