Abstract:
ZusammenfassungDas pathologische Horten (DSM-5 300.3) scheint mit ca. 2% Punktprävalenz eine häufige Störung zu sein, die aber bei Psychiatern und Psychotherapeuten Zurückhaltung auslöst. Für Betroffene ist es schwer, eine angemessene Therapie zu bekommen. Das hat mehrere Gründe: Die diagnostische Einordnung ist umstritten. Ist es eine Form der Zwangsstörung? Gesichert ist die Tatsache, dass die klassische kognitive Verhaltenstherapie bei Zwangsstörung gut, beim pathologischen Horten kaum hilft. Andere Syndrome wie ADHS, bipolare Störung, soziale Phobie und Depression spielen komorbid oder als Teil des Syndroms mit hinein. Die Störung wird teilweise ich-synton präsentiert. Mit anderen Worten: die Therapie ist schwierig. Während sich die Fachleute zurückhalten, sind Ratgeberbücher, Fernsehen und Selbsthilfegruppen hoch interessiert am „Messie-Syndrom“, einer im Grunde diskriminierenden Bezeichnung für das Pathologische Horten. Der vorliegende Beitrag stellt sich die Aufgabe, Therapieprinzipien bekannt zu machen, die sich in Studien als wirksam erwiesen haben. Eine auf das Störungsbild des Pathologischen Hortens ausgerichtete Therapie kann nicht in allen Fällen zur Vollremission führen, bietet aber gute Chancen für eine symptomatische Verbesserung in vielen Fällen und die Wiederherstellung der Funktionalität in einem Teil der Fälle.

Abstract:
Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome is a rare X-linked neurologic condition caused by mutations in monocarboxylate transporter 8 ( MCT8), which leads to deficient thyroid hormone transport. Typical features include severe cognitive impairment, truncal hypotonia, spastic paraplegia, weakness, and speech difficulties. Minimal literature exists describing the ocular findings in patients with Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome. We describe 4 male siblings affected with Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome with a novel nonsense mutation (Q90X) in the MCT8 protein. All affected siblings presented with classic findings of Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome, and each of the siblings also developed intermittent esotropia. This group of affected siblings represents the first consistent documentation of strabismus in Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome, suggesting a possible association between this clinical finding and the neurologic syndrome.

Abstract:
Thyroid hormone is essential for normal proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes. Thus, untreated congenital hypothyroidism is marked by severe short stature. The monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) is a highly specific transporter for thyroid hormone. The hallmarks of Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome, caused by MCT8 mutations, are severe psychomotor retardation and elevated T3 levels. However, growth is mostly normal. We therefore hypothesized that growth plate chondrocytes use transporters other than MCT8 for thyroid hormone uptake. Extensive analysis of thyroid hormone transporter mRNA expression in mouse chondrogenic ATDC5 cells revealed that monocarboxylate transporter 10 (Mct10) was most abundantly expressed among the transporters known to be highly specific for thyroid hormone, namely Mct8, Mct10, and organic anion transporter 1c1. Expression levels of Mct10 mRNA diminished with chondrocyte differentiation in these cells. Accordingly, Mct10 mRNA was expressed most abundantly in the growth plate resting zone chondrocytes in vivo. Small interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of Mct10 mRNA in ATDC5 cells decreased [125I]T3 uptake up to 44% compared with negative control (P < 0.05). Moreover, silencing Mct10 mRNA expression abolished the known effects of T3, i.e. suppression of proliferation and enhancement of differentiation, in ATDC5 cells. These results suggest that Mct10 functions as a thyroid hormone transporter in chondrocytes and can explain at least in part why Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome patients do not exhibit significant growth impairment.

Abstract:
Thyroid hormone is a pleiotropic hormone with widespread biological actions. For instance, adequate levels of thyroid hormone are critical for the development of different tissues such as the central nervous system, but are also essential for the regulation of metabolic processes throughout life. The biological activity of thyroid hormone depends not only on serum thyroid hormone levels, but is also regulated at the tissue level by the expression and activity of deiodinases, which activate thyroid hormone or mediate its degradation. In addition, thyroid hormone transporters are necessary for the uptake of thyroid hormone into target tissues. With the discovery of monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) as a specific thyroid hormone transporter and the finding that mutations in this transporter lead to a syndrome of severe psychomotor retardation and elevated serum 3,3′,5-tri-iodothyronine levels known as the Allan–Herndon–Dudley syndrome, the interest in this area of research has greatly increased. In this review, we will focus on the molecular aspects of thyroid hormone transporters, including MCT8, MCT10, organic anion transporting polypeptides, and the effects of genetic variation in these transporters.

Abstract:
Thyroid hormone (TH) is important for normal brain development. The TH transporter protein monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) is crucial to maintain adequate TH levels in the brain during development and throughout life. Mutations in MCT8 result in the Allan–Herndon–Dudley syndrome (AHDS), which is characterized by a severe delay in neurocognitive development, combined with abnormal serum thyroid function tests (TFTs). The combination of an increased (F)T3 and decreased (F)T4 and rT3 serum levels are characteristic for the presence of AHDS in male patients with moderate to severe delay in neurocognitive development. Here, we provide an overview of current insights, challenges and pitfalls in the diagnosis and management of patients with AHDS.

How do artists scare us? Horror filmmakers and novelists alike can accomplish fear, revulsion, and disturbance in their respective audiences. The rhetorical and stylistic strategies employed to evoke these feelings are unique to the genre. Divulging these strategies will be the major focus of this thesis, yet there will also be discussion on the social and cultural background of the Horror genre.

Abstract:
Though the cinematic genre of horror was not designated until the twentieth century, elements of this genre have appeared onstage since the time of the Greeks. Theatre history is rife with examples of theatrical ghosts and horrors, whose ever-changing representation indicates society's evolving relationship to and expectation for horror onstage. In 2019, Virginia Tech presented the installation Poe's Shadows, which combined elements of traditional theatre, original art, and innovative technology to present an immersive experience of Edgar Allan Poe's work. This production was a unique collaborative work that combined the creative labor of both faculty and students, while also invoking past horror theatre techniques and technologies. The properties of the Cube performance space allowed the Poe's Shadows creative team to imitate hand-cranked panoramas, magic lantern shows, and shadow plays, while also using sound effects and narration that combined elements of theatrical tradition and ghost shows. By studying the history of Poe's Shadows, as well as the reception of the installation, one can see how the theatre's evolving relationship with horror is effected by audience demand and expectation, as well as newly available technologies.

Abstract:
Schilddrüsenhormone benötigen als geladene Proteine Transporter um Zellmembranen zu durchqueren. Ein sehr spezifisches Transportprotein ist der Monocarboxylattransporter 8 (Mct8). Mutationen in MCT8 führen beim Menschen zu einer schweren X-gekoppelten mentalen Retardierung, die mit sehr speziellen Veränderungen der Schilddrüsenhormonwerte im Serum einher geht. Zur genaueren Untersuchung der Funktion von Mct8 sowie Mechanismen der Erkrankung wurde ein Knock-out Mausmodell für Mct8 generiert und mit dem menschlichen Phänotyp verglichen. Mct8-defiziente Mäuse replizieren den humanen Phänotyp in Hinsicht auf veränderte Schilddrüsenhormonparameter im Serum. Dennoch weisen diese Mäuse keine morphologischen Veränderungen des Gehirns auf. Ein in dieser Arbeit erstmalig nachgewiesenes ähnlich einer Hyperthyreose verändertes Angstverhalten sowie ein ähnlich einer Hypothyreose verändertes Putzverhalten führte zu der Hypothese, dass es andere Transporter gibt, die den Verlust von Mct8 kompensieren. Ein Kandidat mit einem ähnlichen Expressionsmuster in verschiedenen Geweben und auch in Zelltypen des Gehirns ist der L-Typ Aminosäuretransporter 2 (Lat2). Mct8 ist bei der Maus und beim Menschen während der Entwicklung stark in Neuronen und anderen Zelltypen des Gehirns exprimiert. LAT2 ist jedoch anders als bei der Maus beim Menschen während der Entwicklung in Neuronen nicht nachweisbar. Lat2 könnte also bei der Maus, jedoch nicht beim Menschen den Verlust von Mct8 während der Gehirnentwicklung kompensieren und somit den Unterschied zwischen beiden Phänotypen erklären. Die Untersuchung von Mct8-defizienten Mäusen konnte jedoch auch einen neuen Phänotyp aufdecken: das Fehlen von Mct8 führt bei Mäusen mit zunehmendem Alter zu Hyperplasien der Schilddrüse, die als papilläre Schilddrüsenkarzinome klassifiziert wurden. Bei einem Patienten mit Allan-Herndon-Dudley-Syndrom konnten hierauf ebenfalls hyperplastische Veränderungen der Schilddrüse gefunden werden.
Thyroid hormones are charged molecules and therefore need transporters to cross the cell membrane. One very specific transport protein is the monocarboxylatetransporter 8 (Mct8). Mutations in MCT8 lead to a severe form of X-linked mental retardation in humans in combination with very specific changes in thyroid hormone serum parameters. A mouse model of Mct8-deficiency was generated and compared to the human phenotype to be able to precisely analyze functions of Mct8 and mechanisms of the disease. Mct8-deficient mice do replicate the human phenotype concerning changes of thyroid hormones in serum. However, these mice did not show any morphological changes in the brain. This work could show for the first time changes in anxiety-related behaviour indicative of hyperthyroidism as well as changes in grooming behaviour indicative of hypothyroidism. This led to the hypothesis that other transporters exist that can compensate for the loss of Mct8. One candidate that has a similar expression pattern in different tissues and cell types of the brain is the L-type amino acid transporter 2 (Lat2). Mct8 is highly expressed in neurons and other cell types of mice and humans during development. LAT2 is in contrast to the mouse not detectable in human developing neurons. Therefore, Lat2 could compensate in the mouse but not in the human for the loss of Mct8 during brain development. This could explain the differences between both phenotypes. Nevertheless, the analysis of Mct8-deficient mice could also disclose a new phenotype: the loss of Mct8 leads to thyroid hyperplasia in mice that increases with age and could be classified as papillary thyroid carcinoma. Thereupon, hyperplastic changes of the thyroid could also be detected in a patient with Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome.

This study utilized large-scale gene expression data to define the regulatory networks of genes expressing in the hippocampus to which multiple disease pathologies may be associated. Specific aims were: ident i fy key regulatory transcription factors (TFs) responsible for observed gene expression patterns, reconstruct transcription regulatory networks, and prioritize likely TFs responsible for anatomically restricted gene expression. Most of the analysis was restricted to the CA3 sub-region of Ammon&rsquo
s horn within the hippocampus. We identified 155 core genes expressing throughout the CA3 sub-region and predicted corresponding TF binding site (TFBS) distributions. Our analysis shows plausible transcription regulatory networks for twelve clusters of co-expressed genes. We demonstrate the validity of the predictions by re-clustering genes based on TFBS distributions and found that genes tend to be correctly assigned to groups of previously identified co-expressing genes with sensitivity of 67.74% and positive predictive value of 100%. Taken together, this study represents one of the first to merge anatomical architecture, expression profiles and transcription regulatory potential on such a large scale in hippocampal sub-anatomy.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the history of Commonwealth Government higher education policy in Australia between 1958 and 1997 and its impact on the development of two groups of academic librarians: the Association of Librarians in Colleges in Advanced Education (ALCAE) and the Committee of Australian University Librarians (CAUL). Although university librarians had met occasionally since the late 1920s, it was only in 1965 that a more formal organisation, known as CAUL, was established to facilitate the exchange of ideas and information. ALCAE was set up in 1969 and played an important role helping develop a special concept of library service peculiar to the newly formed College of Advanced Education (CAE) sector. As well as examining the impact of Commonwealth Government higher education policy on ALCAE and CAUL, the thesis also explores the influence of other factors on these two groups, including the range of personalities that comprised them, and their relationship with their parent institutions and with other professional groups and organisations. The study focuses on how higher education policy and these other external and internal factors shaped the functions, aspirations, and internal dynamics of these two groups and how this resulted in each group evolving differently. The author argues that, because of the greater attention given to the special educational role of libraries in the CAE curriculum, the group of college librarians had the opportunity to participate in, and have some influence on, Commonwealth Government statutory bodies responsible for the coordination of policy and the distribution of funding for the CAE sector. The link between ALCAE and formal policy-making processes resulted in a more dynamic group than CAUL, with the university librarians being discouraged by their Vice-Chancellors from having contact with university funding bodies because of the desire of the universities to maintain a greater level of control over their affairs and resist interference from government. The circumstances of each group underwent a reversal over time as ALCAE's effectiveness began to diminish as a result of changes to the CAE sector and as member interest was transferred to other groups and organisations. Conversely, CAUL gradually became a more active group during the 1980s and early 1990s as a result of changes to higher education, the efforts of some university librarians, and changes in membership. This study is based principally on primary source material, with the story of ALCAE and CAUL being told through the use of a combination of original documentation (including minutes of meetings and correspondence) and interviews with members of each group and other key figures.

Abstract Edgar Allan Poe is a master of tales of horror. He produces horror not only for the readers, but for the characters involved, and the narrators. To achieve heightened horror effects, he employs various devices deftly. This thesis, therefore, examines five major horror elements (in four chapters) systematically in terms of (1) unreliable and mentally ill narrators; (2) descriptions of body parts; (3) asphyxia; (4) acoustics; and, (5) brutality and moral ambiguity. Chapter One focuses on unreliable and mentally ill narrators. There are four indicators to measure the narrator’s unreliability. With a mentally ill narrator-murderer, the horror involved is both physical and mental. Some prominent symptoms of mental disorder, such as hallucination, monomania, and schizophrenia, greatly intensify the horror and give psychological depth to the narratives. Chapter Two explores how body parts, such as eyes and teeth, are employed to enhance horror. Some body parts may be depicted positively, but they often turn into an obsession of the narrator, like Ligeia’s eyes and Berenice’s teeth. Some other body parts may be perceived negatively and associated with evil forces and horror, like the black cat’s eye and the old man’s vulture-like eye. Chapter Three investigates how asphyxia and acoustics are exploited to enhance horror. Asphyxia-related elements include claustrophobia, suffocation, and being buried alive, like Berenice (pronounced “bury nice”) and Madeline Usher, both buried alive by other characters knowingly or unknowingly. Acoustics involves various “sound effects” that help create and heighten horror, like real or imagined weird noises, shrieks from a cat, or the sound of heartbeat. Chapter Four analyzes how brutal behaviors and moral ambiguity help to enhance horror. Despite occasional moments of possible moral concerns, Poe’s narratives invariably downplay morality and focus on the art of presenting brutal actions, and mental and emotional responses. Leaving morality aside gives horror and art a free rein. Each horror element may work well singlehandedly, but more often than not, some of these elements work together to intensify atmosphere, characterization, interactions, brutality, and mental illness.

This chapter analyses the artistic aspects of House of Usher (1960) to reveal how Roger Corman's crew managed to successfully fuse the dark Romantic tradition to which Edgar Allan Poe belongs with a more expressionist horror film aesthetic that made the film more directly appealing to 1960s horror-movie audiences. Used in the context of low-budget horror films, expressionism should be understood as a term denoting ‘art which depends on free and obvious distortions of natural forms to convey emotional feeling’. House of Usher is not expressionistic because its frames resemble the art of Edvard Munch, but because its mise-en-scène is not naturalistic but functions as a visual vehicle for the expression of subjective states of mind and emotions. In developing House of Usher, Corman told his crew: ‘I never want to see “reality” in any of these scenes’. The décor of the Usher mansion is not designed for verisimilitude, but to give the audience a glimpse at the fear that lurks in the darkest corners of Roderick's psyche.

Abstract:
This chapter makes explicit the influence of Valéry whose poem La Pythie [The Pythoness] is quoted by Merleau-Ponty in the penultimate sentence of The Visible and the Invisible. Merleau-Ponty discussed the work and life of Paul Valéry (1871–1945) for the entire first half of the first course of 1953, Recherches sur l’usage littéraire du langage. After early poetic successes, Valéry experienced a deep personal crisis that led him to impose a silence upon himself, which lasted for a period of twenty-five years from 1892 until 1917, after which he emerged reborn as a writer. Merleau-Ponty recognizes the power of silence to nourish both poetic and philosophical language in relation to three orders or dimensions: “the horizon of the visible, the horizon of the nameable, and the horizon of the thinkable.” The notions of the “chiasma of two destinies” and the “implex of words” derive directly from Valéry, who leads on to Mallarmé and Baudelaire together with Edgar Allan Poe, as well as to Francis Ponge, who captured this overlapping exchange among the dimensions of Being in Taking the Side of Things [Le parti pris des choses].

Abstract:
This chapter juxtaposes Edgar Allan Poe's and Roger Corman's artistic theory and artistic method to shine a light on the creative synergy of their collaboration. Poe and Corman are existential artists, fascinated by the theme of death not as a source of outright horror — to shock an audience with graphic portrayals of murder and mayhem — but as a trope through which to explore questions concerning the meaning and purpose of individual as well as collective human lives. Poe expressed this most succinctly in his poem ‘The Conqueror Worm’. That Corman also reflected on the meaning of human lives and the ethics of human thought and behaviour in his art becomes apparent by his inclusion of the voice of God in the opening sequence of Attack of the Crab Monsters (1956). While it may be tempting to call Poe a poor man's Percy Shelley and Corman a cheapskate Jack Arnold, the chapter considers them both producers of the thinking person's fantastic fiction.

Abstract:
This introductory chapter provides an overview of The Descent (Neil Marshall, 2005). By the end of the millennium, it was easy to think that horror was a spent force. But by the middle of the 2000s, things looked different. British critic Alan Jones coined the term the 'Splat Pack' to describe a group of directors — including Neil Marshall — who were making films that were throwbacks, indeed often explicit homages, to a 1970s US independent horror sensibility. The phrase caught on and the film industry paid attention: these movies were cheap to make and sold extremely well. However, the most commercially successful of them tended towards a cartoonish posturing. Fortunately, not all the films celebrated under the 'Splat Pack' rubric were so throwaway; some of the more intelligent, effective works even did well at the box office. To some viewers, The Descent marked a true return to form. The chapter then presents a brief background of Neil Marshall.

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on the emergence of rival publishers and how Albatross Press responded to the challenge. After the Germans bombarded his London office, John Holroyd-Reece took up his defense of Albatross from a new location: 13 New Square. The continental market for English books was open to competition, and Holroyd-Reece saw rivals rising up over the horizon. One of them, the Swedish publisher Albert Bonnier, opened a New York office in an attempt to win American rights for his own continental English edition: Clipper Books. As war dragged on, publishers became bolder about challenging Albatross and Bernhard Tauchnitz. On July 30, 1935, Allen Lane launched his Penguin Books into the British market. One of Lane's chief American allies was Kurt Enoch.

Abstract:
This introductory chapter provides an overview of House of Usher (1960), which was a part of American International Pictures' TV series The Curse of Corman. This TV series introduced American International's Poe pictures to a new generation. It is the emotional intensity conveyed through the mise-en-scène that sets the Poe pictures apart from their immediate rivals. The Poe pictures appealed to AIP's target audience — teenagers — because their aesthetics were also akin to the look and feel of EC horror comics. More than any of the other Poe pictures, House of Usher is a work of pulp expressionism that appeals to the angst holed up inside the minds of many a teenage audience member. Like a magic lantern, the film projector reveals a series of beautifully crafted, colourful tableau that in sequence give expression to Edgar Allan Poe's vision of human frailty and corruption, and the void that awaits beyond the threshold of life. This book explains why House of Usher has attracted a cult audience for nearly 60 years.

Abstract:
Meniscal injuries frequently occur in combination with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears. Tears in the menisci that occur acutely with ACL injury are located either medially or laterally, but in ACL deficient knees chronic instability most commonly leads to meniscal tears in the posterior horn of medial meniscus (Smith & Barrett, 2001). Levy et al. (1982) suggested that medial meniscus might act as a mechanical wedge preventing tibial anterior translation due to its firm attachment to the tibia at the posterior horn. Previous biomechanical studies infer the role of the meniscus through measurements of alternations in forces or knee motions (Shoemaker & Markolf, 1986; Allen, 2000), however no study has provided clear images of the motion or deformation of the meniscus itself. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of anterior cruciate ligament resection, as well as partial and complete meniscectomies on knee kinematics in response to anterior loading. Application of loads during magnetic resonance (MR) imaging allows us to visualize the motion and deformation of the menisci, and therefore obtain a more clear understanding of its role in knee stability.
