    Abstract In the postnatal period, extensive peripheral arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are associated with high morbidity, especially when localized in the liver. Their urgent treatment is always a challenging problem in neonates and infants. We analyzed four consecutive children aged three days to three years who underwent eight liquid embolization procedures with ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer. The AVM were situated on the thoracic wall, in the liver, and on the lower leg. In three cases, the malformations showed total regression. The tibial AVM degenerated widely. If impaired beforehand, cardiac or hepatic function normalized after the interventions. There were no embolization-associated complications such as nontarget embolization or tissue ischemia. We conclude that application of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer seems to be a safe therapeutic option and can be used in neonates and infants with peripheral AVM in consideration of the agent's characteristics. Nevertheless, there are still hardly any data concerning young children.

    Abstract Background: Congenital heart defects (CHD) are still associated with an increased morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to analyze trends of mortality rates in patients with CHD between 1998 and 2018 in Germany.
    Methods: Data of registered deaths with an underlying diagnosis of CHD were used to evaluate annual mortality between 1998 and 2018. Polynomial regressions were performed to assess annual changes in CHD-associated mortality rates by age groups.
    Results: During the 21-year study period, a total of 11,314 deaths were attributed to CHD with 50.9% of deaths in infants (age < 1 year) and 28.2% in neonates (age ≤ 28 days). The most frequent underlying CHDs associated with death were hypoplastic left heart syndrome (n = 1498, 13.2%), left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (n = 1009, 8.9%), atrial septal defects (n = 771, 6.8%), ventricular septal defects (n = 697, 6.2%), and tetralogy of Fallot (n = 673, 5.9%), and others (n = 6666, 58.9%). Among all patients, annual CHD-related mortality rates declined significantly between 1998 and 2010 (p < 0.0001), followed by a significant annual increase until 2018 (p < 0.0001). However, mortality rates in 2018 in all ages were significantly lower than in 1998.
    Conclusion: Mortality in CHD patients decreased significantly between 1998 and 2010, but a substantial number of deaths still occurred and even significantly increased in the last 3 years of the observation period particularly in neonates and infants. This renewed slight increase in mortality rate during the last years was influenced mainly by high-risk neonates and infants. Assessment of factors influencing the mortality rate trends in association with CHD in Germany is urgently needed. Obligatory nationwide registration of death cases in relation to surgical and catheter interventions in CHD patients is necessary to provide additional valuable data on the outcome of CHD.

    Abstract The heat resistance of Bacillus cereus ATCC 14579 spores enclosed between a silicone-rubber seal and a stainless-steel surface was determined in a temperature range from 90°C to 112°C. Under these conditions spores exhibited a markedly higher resistance than in distilled water. Attachment of spores to one of the surfaces had no effect on the heat resistance if the spores were still in direct contact with the heating medium (water or saturated steam). At 90°C suspended spores were killed 1.7 times, at 98°C 2.2 times, at 106°C 14 times, and at 112°C 18 times faster than the enclosed spores. The minor temperature dependence of the heat destruction under the seals resulted in an Arrhenius activation energy of 135 kJ/mol, in comparison with 285 kJ/mol for the suspended spores. It is suggested that the free water initially present is completely replaced by the elastic seal as it is pressed onto the seal surface. The environment of the enclosed spores therefore might be compared to an environment of reduced water activity which is known to bring about a drastic increase in heat resistance.

    Abstract Die DLG hat bereits in den 1980er Jahren Abluftreinigungsanlagen geprüft und zertifiziert. Damals – wie auch heute – mit dem Ziel, die Belange der Genehmigungsbehörden, der Landwirtinnen und Landwirte sowie der Hersteller gleichermaßen zu berücksichtigen. Eine unabhängige Kommission prüft Anlagen nach deren Wirkungsgrad, Arbeitssicherheit, Handhabung und Funktion im praktischen Einsatz. Die im Prüfrahmen enthaltenen Grenzwerte für die Reinigungsleistung wurden festgesetzt, um den Belangen der zu schützenden Umwelt gerecht zu werden. Funktionierende Filteranlagen ermöglichen in vielen Regionen erst die Erweiterung bestehender oder den Bau neuer Stallanlagen, wenn alle anderen Maßnahmen zur Emissionsminderung im Stall ausgereizt sind. Das vorliegende Merkblatt ist der zweite Teil der Reihe „Hinweise um Betrieb von Abluftreinigungsanlagen für die Schweinehaltung“ und gibt wertvolle Hinweise zur Reduzierung der Betriebskosten. Die beispielhaften Betriebsdaten und Verbrauchswerte zertifizierter Anlagen aus der DLG-Prüfung ergänzen diese Hinweise. Abluftreinigungsanlagen müssen zu dem jeweiligen Stall und den örtlichen Gegebenheiten passen. Die Hilfestellungen und Informationen der beiden Merkblätter 483 und 484 sollen Betriebsleiterinnen und Betriebsleiter bei der Entscheidung für das richtige System unterstützen. Auch anderen Beteiligten eines Genehmigungsverfahrens sollen mit den beiden Merkblättern die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen von Abluftreinigungsanlagen in der Schweinehaltung aufgezeigt werden.
