Schnell kehrte jedoch Ern{\"u}chterung ein, da die Nutzung der Marktpl{\"a}tze weitaus langsamer voranging als allgemein erwartet wurde. Daf{\"u}r wird als ein Hauptgrund die mangelnde Erfahrungen sowohl auf Seiten der Marktplatzbetreiber als auch der nachfragenden Unternehmen hinsichtlich der ganzheitlichen Betrachtung und Restrukturierung der Beschaffungsprozesse unter Einsatz des „Hilfsmittels" Internettechnologie-basierter Marktplatz angef{\"u}hrt. Mit der einhergehenden Versachlichung der Diskussion wurde aber auch deutlich, dass viele nachfragende Unternehmen mittlerweile in diesen Plattformen ein unentbehrliches Instrument zur Unterst{\"u}tzung des zwischenbetrieblichen Leistungsaustauschs sehen. Die steigende Akzeptanz der virtuellen Handelsplattformen darf nicht dar{\"u}ber hinweg t{\"a}uschen, dass die Mehrzahl der nachfragenden Unternehmen erst seit kurzer Zeit und nur bei einigen der angebotenen Marktplatzdiensten Erfahrungen sammeln konnten. {\"A}hnliches ist auf Seiten der Marktplatzbetreiber zu konstatieren, die zum Teil die Leistungen und Funktionen ihrer Systeme in den vergangenen Jahren mehrfach neu gestalteten, da sich bei vielen Plattformen der Fokus von konkurrenzorientierten hin zu kollaborativen Szenarien verschob. In der Konsequenz existiert nach wie vor eine hohe Unsicherheit, welche Gestaltungsanforderungen an die Plattformen zu stellen sind, um die Beschaffungsabl{\"a}ufe sicher, effizient und durchg{\"a}ngig zu unterst{\"u}tzen. Im Rahmen der Dissertation wird daher ein beschaffungsobjektzentrierter Anforderungskatalog an Internettechnologie-basierte Marktpl{\"a}tze systematisch erarbeitet, um eine betriebswirtschaftlich fundierte Bewertung dieser Plattformen aus Sicht der industriellen Beschaffung zu erm{\"o}glichen. Neben der Einleitung und der Schlussbetrachtung gliedert sich die Untersuchung in f{\"u}nf Hauptteile. Im zweiten Kapitel werden zun{\"a}chst die f{\"u}r die Arbeit relevanten Grundlagen der industriellen Beschaffung herausgearbeitet. Das dritte Kapitel dient der Einordnung elektronischer Marktpl{\"a}tze in den zwischenbetrieblichen Beschaffungsprozess. Dabei steht im ersten Teil der Markt als grundlegender {\"o}konomischer Koordinationsmechanismus im Mittelpunkt. Ausgehend von der volks- und betriebswirtschaftlichen Definition werden die relevanten Faktoren herausgearbeitet, die einen Markt aus Beschaffungssicht fixieren. Darauf aufbauend erfolgt eine Analyse der marktm{\"a}ßig organisierten Leistungskoordination, die in einem idealtypischen Phasenmodell einer Gesch{\"a}ftstransaktion m{\"u}ndet. Der im Anschluss skizzierte Aufbau elektronischer Marktpl{\"a}tze, in den das Phasenmodell integriert wird, stellt die strukturelle Grundlage zur Ableitung der Gestaltungsanforderungen dar. Die in der Arbeit fokussierte Teilmenge der elektronischen Marktpl{\"a}tze - die Internettechnologie-basierten Marktpl{\"a}tze - werden im zweiten Teil des dritten Kapitels aus Beschaffungssicht diskutiert und anderen interorganisationalen Systemen zur Unterst{\"u}tzung des Transaktionsprozesses gegen{\"u}bergestellt. Abschließend wird veranschaulicht, auf welche dieser Systeme die Erkenntnisse dieser Arbeit {\"u}bertragbar sind. Die Zielstellung des vierten Kapitels besteht im Entwurf eines Klassifizierungssystems f{\"u}r Beschaffungsobjekte, das zur Entwicklung des objektzentrierten Analyseschemas Internettechnologie-basierter Marktpl{\"a}tze geeignet ist. Durch eine Auswertung sowohl der wissenschaftlichen als auch praxisnahen Fachliteratur werden die f{\"u}r die Untersuchung einzubeziehenden Objektmerkmale ermittelt. Die nachfolgende Verdichtung und Verkn{\"u}pfung der Eigenschaften resultiert in drei zu ber{\"u}cksichtigenden Objektmerkmalen - Spezifit{\"a}t, Komplexit{\"a}t und strategische Bedeutung - mit jeweils bipolaren Auspr{\"a}gungen, die zusammen einen W{\"u}rfel mit acht Beschaffungsobjektgruppen bilden. Im f{\"u}nften Kapitel werden ausgehend vom Aufbau elektronischer Marktpl{\"a}tze die m{\"o}glichen Funktionalit{\"a}ten und Leistungen in den einzelnen Untersuchungsbereichen aufgezeigt. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei neben der Unterst{\"u}tzung der einzelnen Phasen einer Gesch{\"a}ftstransaktion die {\"u}bergeordnete Organisationsebene, welche die Ausrichtung und Positionierung des Marktplatzes sowie die durchf{\"u}hrbaren Gesch{\"a}ftsvorf{\"a}lle bzw. Prozessabl{\"a}ufe determiniert. Nachfolgend wird aus den gewonnenen Erkenntnissen f{\"u}r jede der acht Objektgruppen der spezifische Anforderungskatalog aus Beschaffungssicht abgeleitet.

Methods To assess the role of deleterious BRIP1 germline mutations in BC/OC predisposition, 6341 well-characterized index patients with BC, 706 index patients with OC, and 2189 geographically matched female controls were screened for loss-of-function (LoF) mutations and potentially damaging missense variants. All index patients met the inclusion criteria of the German Consortium for Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer for germline testing and tested negative for pathogenic BRCA1/2 variants. Results BRIP1 LoF mutations confer a high OC risk in familial index patients (odds ratio (OR) = 20.97, 95\% confidence interval (CI) = 12.02-36.57, P < 0.0001) and in the subgroup of index patients with late-onset OC (OR = 29.91, 95\% CI = 14.99-59.66, P < 0.0001). No significant association of BRIP1 LoF mutations with familial BC was observed (OR = 1.81 95\% CI = 1.00-3.30, P = 0.0623). In the subgroup of familial BC index patients without a family history of OC there was also no apparent association (OR = 1.42, 95\% CI = 0.70-2.90, P = 0.3030). In 1027 familial BC index patients with a family history of OC, the BRIP1 mutation prevalence was significantly higher than that observed in controls (OR = 3.59, 95\% CI = 1.43-9.01; P = 0.0168). Based on the negative association between BRIP1 LoF mutations and familial BC in the absence of an OC family history, we conclude that the elevated mutation prevalence in the latter cohort was driven by the occurrence of OC in these families. Compared with controls, predicted damaging rare missense variants were significantly more prevalent in OC (P = 0.0014) but not in BC (P = 0.0693) patients. Conclusions To avoid ambiguous results, studies aimed at assessing the impact of candidate predisposition gene mutations on BC risk might differentiate between BC index patients with an OC family history and those without. In familial cases, we suggest that BRIP1 is a high-risk gene for late-onset OC but not a BC predisposition gene, though minor effects cannot be excluded.}, language = {en} } @article{WildeLiebLeichtetal.2021, author = {Wilde, Anne-Christin Beatrice and Lieb, Charlotte and Leicht, Elise and Greverath, Lena Maria and Steinhagen, Lara Marleen and Wald de Chamorro, Nina and Petersen, J{\"o}rg and Hofmann, Wolf Peter and Hinrichsen, Holger and Heyne, Renate and Berg, Thomas and Naumann, Uwe and Schwenzer, Jeannette and Vermehren, Johannes and Geier, Andreas and Tacke, Frank and M{\"u}ller, Tobias}, title = {Real-world clinical management of patients with primary biliary cholangitis — a retrospective multicenter study from Germany}, series = {Journal of Clinical Medicine}, volume = {10}, journal = {Journal of Clinical Medicine}, number = {5}, issn = {2077-0383}, doi = {10.3390/jcm10051061}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-234003}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Background: Clinical practice guidelines for patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) have been recently revised and implemented for well-established response criteria to standard first-line ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) therapy at 12 months after treatment initiation for the early identification of high-risk patients with inadequate treatment responses who may require treatment modification. However, there are only very limited data concerning the real-world clinical management of patients with PBC in Germany. Objective: The aim of this retrospective multicenter study was to evaluate response rates to standard first-line UDCA therapy and subsequent Second-line treatment regimens in a large cohort of well-characterized patients with PBC from 10 independent hepatological referral centers in Germany prior to the introduction of obeticholic acid as a licensed second-line treatment option. Methods: Diagnostic confirmation of PBC, standard first-line UDCA treatment regimens and response rates at 12 months according to Paris-I, Paris-II, and Barcelona criteria, the follow-up cut-off alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ≤ 1.67 × upper limit of normal (ULN) and the normalization of bilirubin (bilirubin ≤ 1 × ULN) were retrospectively examined between June 1986 and March 2017. The management and hitherto applied second-line treatment regimens in patients with an inadequate response to UDCA and subsequent response rates at 12 months were also evaluated. Results: Overall, 480 PBC patients were included in this study. The median UDCA dosage was 13.2 mg UDCA/kg bodyweight (BW)/d. Adequate UDCA treatment response rates according to Paris-I, Paris-II, and Barcelona criteria were observed in 91, 71.3, and 61.3\% of patients, respectively. In 83.8\% of patients, ALP ≤ 1.67 × ULN were achieved. A total of 116 patients (24.2\%) showed an inadequate response to UDCA according to at least one criterion. The diverse second-line treatment regimens applied led to significantly higher response rates according to Paris-II (35 vs. 60\%, p = 0.005), Barcelona (13 vs. 34\%, p = 0.0005), ALP ≤ 1.67 × ULN and bilirubin ≤ 1 × ULN (52.1 vs. 75\%, p = 0.002). The addition of bezafibrates appeared to induce the strongest beneficial effect in this cohort (Paris II: 24 vs. 74\%, p = 0.004; Barcelona: 50 vs. 84\%, p = 0.046; ALP < 1.67 × ULN and bilirubin ≤ 1 × ULN: 33 vs. 86\%, p = 0.001). Conclusion: Our large retrospective multicenter study confirms high response rates following UDCA first-line standard treatment in patients with PBC and highlights the need for close monitoring and early treatment modification in high-risk patients with an insufficient response to UDCA since early treatment modification significantly increases subsequent response rates of these patients.}, language = {en} } @article{KoleKošćakAmaretal.2022, author = {Kole, Goutam Kumar and Košćak, Marta and Amar, Anissa and Majhen, Dragomira and Božinović, Ksenija and Brkljaca, Zlatko and Ferger, Matthias and Michail, Evripidis and Lorenzen, Sabine and Friedrich, Alexandra and Krummenacher, Ivo and Moos, Michael and Braunschweig, Holger and Boucekkine, Abdou and Lambert, Christoph and Halet, Jean-Fran{\c{c}}ois and Piantanida, Ivo and M{\"u}ller-Buschbaum, Klaus and Marder, Todd B.}, title = {Methyl Viologens of Bis-(4'-Pyridylethynyl)Arenes - Structures, Photophysical and Electrochemical Studies, and their Potential Application in Biology}, series = {Chemistry - A European Journal}, volume = {28}, journal = {Chemistry - A European Journal}, number = {40}, doi = {10.1002/chem.202200753}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-287126}, year = {2022}, abstract = {A series of bis-(4'-pyridylethynyl)arenes (arene=benzene, tetrafluorobenzene, and anthracene) were synthesized and their bis-N-methylpyridinium compounds were investigated as a class of π-extended methyl viologens. Their structures were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction, and their photophysical and electrochemical properties (cyclic voltammetry), as well as their interactions with DNA/RNA were investigated. The dications showed bathochromic shifts in emission compared to the neutral compounds. The neutral compounds showed very small Stokes shifts, which are a little larger for the dications. All of the compounds showed very short fluorescence lifetimes (<4 ns). The neutral compound with an anthracene core has a quantum yield of almost unity. With stronger acceptors, the analogous bis-N-methylpyridinium compound showed a larger two-photon absorption cross-section than its neutral precursor. All of the dicationic compounds interact with DNA/RNA; while the compounds with benzene and tetrafluorobenzene cores bind in the grooves, the one with an anthracene core intercalates as a consequence of its large, condensed aromatic linker moiety, and it aggregates within the polynucleotide when in excess over DNA/RNA. Moreover, all cationic compounds showed highly specific CD spectra upon binding to ds-DNA/RNA, attributed to the rare case of forcing the planar, achiral molecule into a chiral rotamer, and negligible toxicity toward human cell lines at ≤10 μM concentrations. The anthracene-analogue exhibited intracellular accumulation within lysosomes, preventing its interaction with cellular DNA/RNA. However, cytotoxicity was evident at 1 μM concentration upon exposure to light, due to singlet oxygen generation within cells. These multi-faceted features, in combination with its two-photon absorption properties, suggest it to be a promising lead compound for development of novel light-activated theranostic agents.}, language = {en} } @article{KoleMerzAmaretal.2021, author = {Kole, Goutam Kumar and Merz, Julia and Amar, Anissa and Fontaine, Bruno and Boucekkine, Abdou and Nitsch, J{\"o}rn and Lorenzen, Sabine and Friedrich, Alexandra and Krummenacher, Ivo and Košćak, Marta and Braunschweig, Holger and Piantanida, Ivo and Halet, Jean-Fran{\c{c}}ois and M{\"u}ller-Buschbaum, Klaus and Marder, Todd B.}, title = {2- and 2,7-substituted para-N-methylpyridinium pyrenes: syntheses, molecular and electronic structures, photophysical, electrochemical, and spectroelectrochemical properties and binding to double-stranded (ds) DNA}, series = {Chemistry - A European Journal}, volume = {27}, journal = {Chemistry - A European Journal}, number = {8}, doi = {10.1002/chem.202004748}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-256642}, pages = {2837-2853}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Two N-methylpyridinium compounds and analogous N-protonated salts of 2- and 2,7-substituted 4-pyridyl-pyrene compounds were synthesised and their crystal structures, photophysical properties both in solution and in the solid state, electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical properties were studied. Upon methylation or protonation, the emission maxima are significantly bathochromically shifted compared to the neutral compounds, although the absorption maxima remain almost unchanged.
