[Prevalence of sexualized harassment in an academic hospital - a cross-sectional survey].

Background: Sexualized harassment, discrimination and violence (SHDV) in the workplace, during training and studies can affect people regardless of their gender. The Equality team at the University Medicine Greifswald (UMG) conducted a survey to determine the current status of such experiences within the company and to derive targeted preventive measures.

Method: Over a period of four months, employees from various professional groups and students were asked online about their experiences and knowledge of sexualized harassment, discrimination and violence, as well as their need for support options.

Simulated data for census-scale entity resolution research without privacy restrictions: a large-scale dataset generated by individual-based modeling.

Background: Entity resolution (ER) is the process of identifying and linking records that refer to the same real-world entity. ER is a fundamental challenge in data science, and a common barrier to ER research and development is that the data fields used for this fuzzy matching are personally identifiable information, such as name, address, and date of birth. The necessary restrictions on accessing and sharing these authentic data have slowed the work in developing, testing, and adopting new methods and software for ER.

Microcirculation disorders of the skin.

Changes in the microcirculation of the skin are a frequently observed accompanying phenomenon of many diseases, far beyond the spectrum of dermatological diseases. Not all of these changes are pathological, many are transient and have no serious consequences. This is true for many inflammatory diseases such as psoriasis vulgaris or atopic eczema.

Representing Sex and Gender Information in Biomedical Research.

In medicine and biomedical research, sex- and gender-related aspects are ubiquitous. If not considered adequately, a lower quality of research data can be expected together with a lower generalizability of study results with real-world settings. From a translational perspective, a lack of sex- and gender-sensitivity in acquired data can have negative implications for diagnosis, treatment (outcome and side effects), and risk prediction.

[Telemedical aftercare of patients with skin diseases].

Background: Improved technologies, an increased need for medical healthcare as well as the shortage of specialist personnel lead to a growing importance of telemedical applications. Dermatology is especially suitable for telemedical applications because of the visual appearance of skin diseases. This can contribute to optimizing the care and aftercare of patients with skin diseases.
