OSGeo conference videos as a resource for scientific research: The TIB|AV Portal
This paper reports on new opportunities for research and education in Free and Open Source Geoinformatics as a translational part of Open Science, enabled by a growing collection of OSGeo conference video recordings at the German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB). Since 2015, OSGeo conference recordings have been included to the collection sphere of TIB in information sciences. Currently, video content from selected national (FOSSGIS), regional (FOSS4G-NA) and global (FOSS4G) conferences is being actively collected. The annual growth exceeds 100 hours of new content relating to the OSGeo software projects and the OSGeo scientific-technical communities. This is seconded by retrospective acquisition of video material dating from past conferences, going back until 2002 to preserve this content, ensuring both long term availability and access. The audiovisual OSGeo-related content is provided through the TIB|AV Portal, a web-based platform for scientific audiovisual media providing state-of-the art multimedia analysis and retrieval. It implements the requirements by research libraries for reliable long term preservation. Metadata enhancement analysis provides extended search and retrieval options. Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) enable scientific citation of full videos, excerpts and still frames, use in education and also referral in social networks. This library-operated service infrastructure turns the audiovisual OSGeo-related content in a reliable source for science and education

Concept for Setting up the Persistent Identifier Services Working Group in the NFDI Section "Common Infrastructures"
The aim of this NFDI working group is to develop a common strategy for the implementation and extension of PID services that is closely aligned with the needs of NFDI consortia. Resulting solutions should enable FAIR research workflows balancing out generic metadata requirements for PIDs that maximise resource discoverability on the one hand and subject-specific needs on the other. At the technical level, the partners want to realise interoperability between PID types and established systems and build on a high level of maturity here; jointly developed services should be able to be rolled out for the entire NFDI

Effectiveness of a national quality improvement programme to improve survival after emergency abdominal surgery (EPOCH): a stepped-wedge cluster-randomised trial
Background: Emergency abdominal surgery is associated with poor patient outcomes. We studied the effectiveness of a national quality improvement (QI) programme to implement a care pathway to improve survival for these patients. Methods: We did a stepped-wedge cluster-randomised trial of patients aged 40 years or older undergoing emergency open major abdominal surgery. Eligible UK National Health Service (NHS) hospitals (those that had an emergency general surgical service, a substantial volume of emergency abdominal surgery cases, and contributed data to the National Emergency Laparotomy Audit) were organised into 15 geographical clusters and commenced the QI programme in a random order, based on a computer-generated random sequence, over an 85-week period with one geographical cluster commencing the intervention every 5 weeks from the second to the 16th time period. Patients were masked to the study group, but it was not possible to mask hospital staff or investigators. The primary outcome measure was mortality within 90 days of surgery. Analyses were done on an intention-to-treat basis. This study is registered with the ISRCTN registry, number ISRCTN80682973. Findings: Treatment took place between March 3, 2014, and Oct 19, 2015. 22 754 patients were assessed for elegibility. Of 15 873 eligible patients from 93 NHS hospitals, primary outcome data were analysed for 8482 patients in the usual care group and 7374 in the QI group. Eight patients in the usual care group and nine patients in the QI group were not included in the analysis because of missing primary outcome data. The primary outcome of 90-day mortality occurred in 1210 (16%) patients in the QI group compared with 1393 (16%) patients in the usual care group (HR 1·11, 0·96â1·28). Interpretation: No survival benefit was observed from this QI programme to implement a care pathway for patients undergoing emergency abdominal surgery. Future QI programmes should ensure that teams have both the time and resources needed to improve patient care.

Die Rolle der ORCID iD in der Wissenschaftskommunikation
Die steigende Zahl von Forschenden, das wachsende Publikationsaufkommen und die im Kontext von Open Science breiter werdende Definition von Publikationen einschlieĂlich Forschungsdaten und Forschungssoftware verschĂ€rfen das Problem der eindeutigen Zuordnung von Forschenden zu ihrem Forschungsoutput. Bei der automatischen Erfassung und Aggregation der Publikationen kann die ORCID iD dahingehend fĂŒr eine QualitĂ€ts- und Effizienzsteigerung sorgen. Die eindeutige Identifikation der Forschenden, die persistente VerknĂŒpfung zwischen ihnen und ihren Publikationen sowie zu weiteren Identifikatoren sind nur drei Nutzungsszenarien fĂŒr die Verwendung von ORCID iDs in der Wissenschaftskommunikation. Die vielseitig integrierbare ORCID-Datenbank ermöglicht es Forschungsförderern, wissenschaftlichen Einrichtungen und Forschenden einrichtungs-ĂŒbergreifende, verifizierte Informationen ĂŒber sĂ€mtliche ForschungsaktivitĂ€ten, wie Textpublikationen und Forschungsdaten sowie empfangene Fördermittel, zu erhalten. Diese werden zum einen als Leistungsindikatoren fĂŒr Forschende, Hochschulen und auĂeruniversitĂ€re Forschungseinrichtungen herangezogen. Zum anderen mĂŒssen sich die Einrichtungen regelmĂ€Ăig der Herausforderung stellen, institutsĂŒbergreifende sowie detaillierte fakultĂ€ts-, instituts- oder lehrstuhlbezogene Publikationslisten vorzuhalten. Zu diesem Zweck implementieren sie institutionelle Repositorien, Publikationsdatenbanken, Hochschulbibliographien und FIS. SpĂ€testens hier zeigt sich der Bedarf nach einer eindeutigen Identifizierung der wissenschaftlichen Mitarbeiter*innen und deren Zuordnung zur internen Organisationsstruktur. Das seit Mai 2016 von der DFG geförderte Projekt ORCID DE gemeinsam mit dem ORCID-Deutschland-Konsortium unterstĂŒtzt die Hochschulen und auĂeruniversitĂ€ren Forschungseinrichtungen bei der Implementierung von ORCID
