    Abstract Drei Viertel der Weltbevölkerung leben in Städten, jeder Achte wohnt in einem Großballungsraum. Millionenstädte und Megacitys verschlingen Land, Energie und Ressourcen - und sind zugleich von der Klimakrise, die sie anheizen, schon jetzt besonders betroffen. Doch in den Metropolen der übervollen Welt haben viele engagierte Menschen die Warnsignale vernommen und vernetzen sich, um das Potenzial der Städte für den dringend erforderlichen partizipativen und sozial-ökologischen Umbau zu nutzen. Die Beiträge dieses Jahrbuchs Ökologie beschäftigen sich aus den unterschiedlichsten Perspektiven mit Gegenwart und Zukunft der Städte und zeigen Perspektiven für ihre kreative Transformation in Richtung lebenswerter Nachhaltigkeit auf.

    Abstract Patients suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) or post-COVID syndrome (PCS) exhibit a reduced physiological performance capability. Impaired mitochondrial function and morphology may play a pivotal role. Thus, we aimed to measure the muscle mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) capacity and assess mitochondrial morphology in CFS and PCS patients in comparison to healthy controls (HCs). Mitochondrial OXPHOS capacity was measured in permeabilized muscle fibers using high-resolution respirometry. Mitochondrial morphology (subsarcolemmal/intermyofibrillar mitochondrial form/cristae/diameter/circumference/area) and content (number and proportion/cell) were assessed via electron microscopy. Analyses included differences in OXPHOS between HC, CFS, and PCS, whereas comparisons in morphology/content were made for CFS vs. PCS. OXPHOS capacity of complex I, which was reduced in PCS compared to HC. While the subsarcolemmal area, volume/cell, diameter, and perimeter were higher in PCS vs. CFS, no difference was observed for these variables in intermyofibrillar mitochondria. Both the intermyofibrillar and subsarcolemmal cristae integrity was higher in PCS compared to CFS. Both CFS and PCS exhibit increased fatigue and impaired mitochondrial function, but the progressed pathological morphological changes in CFS suggest structural changes due to prolonged inactivity or unknown molecular causes. Instead, the significantly lower complex I activity in PCS suggests probably direct virus-induced alterations.

    Abstract This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. Several studies in recent years have shown that the physical examination skills of medical students are inadequate. In response to this deficit, a new teaching intervention has been developed consisting of five physical examination courses and a set of corresponding bedside teaching modules. The bedside modules are primarily intended to provide the opportunity for practical application of the examination techniques learned. One particularity of the bedside teaching was the use of handheld ultrasound (HHU) units in order to be able to visualize and verify/falsify diagnostic findings immediately. Since this demonstration of findings was standardized according to the specifications of the Rapid Ultrasound in Shock and Hypotension (RUSH) protocol, it constituted the basis for the communication of basic emergency ultrasound skills. A pilot study, which included an initial evaluation, has demonstrated this concept is feasible and is met with great interest on the part of the students.

    Abstract Die Entwicklung hin zu einer durchdigitalisierten Gesellschaft geht mit dem Versprechen einher, die ökologische Krise technisch lösen zu können. Doch nach wie vor ist unklar, ob und in welchem Ausmaß die Digitalisierung von Kommunikation, Dienstleistung und industrieller Produktion den Übergang in die Nachhaltigkeit fördert - oder ihn gar behindert. Mehr digital macht die Welt nicht automatisch »zu einem besseren Ort«, wie es das Mantra der digitalen Startups behauptet. Das vorliegende JAHRBUCH ÖKOLOGIE skizziert eine »Ökologie der digitalen Gesellschaft«, ein sozial-ökologisches Einhegen der Digitalisierung. Dies ist die Voraussetzung, damit Digitalisierung die Grundlage einer Transformation hin zu einer regenerativen und das globale Ökosystem schonenden Lebens- und Wirtschaftsweise wird und eben nicht zum Instrument totalitärer Politik mit verheerenden Folgen für den Planeten und die Menschheit.

    Abstract Speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) has become an established, widely available diagnostic method in the past few years, making its value clear in cases of COVID-19 and the further course of the disease, including post-COVID syndrome. Since the beginning of the pandemic, many studies have been published on the use of STE in this condition, enabling, on the one hand, a better understanding of myocardial involvement in COVID-19 and, on the other, a better identification of risk to patients, although some questions remain unanswered in regard to specific pathomechanisms, especially in post-COVID patients. This review takes a closer look at current findings and potential future developments by summarising the extant data on the use of STE, with a focus on left and right ventricular longitudinal strain.

    Abstract Background: SARS-CoV-2 infection is a risk factor for the development of depressive symptoms such as lack of energy, loss of interest, and depressed mood. Inflammatory processes might underline this association. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between inflammatory markers and the severity of depression after SARS-CoV-2 infection and the predictive effect of inflammatory markers on the severity of depressive symptoms. Lifestyle factors and lifestyle-related diseases can influence inflammation and depressive symptoms. As these lifestyle factors and lifestyle-related diseases are less common in physically active individuals, they are a suitable population for investigating this research question.
    Methods: We investigated 61 at least moderate physically active individuals on average ∼6 months (
    Results: Concentrations of KYN were negatively related to the severity of depressive symptoms at t
    Conclusions: KYN, LBP and LMR might be useful as a predictive factor of depressive symptoms in physically active individuals after SARS-CoV-2 infection. While the results for KYN confirm the current scientific evidence, our results highlight the importance of the innovative inflammatory markers LMR and LBP. LMR and LBP might be interesting targets for predicting the development of depressive symptoms in SARS-CoV-2 infected populations and should be further investigated in future studies.

    Abstract Blood profiling data in athletic populations and their respective responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection are lacking. Thus, this exploratory pilot study aimed to analyze and compare clinical blood markers in previously infected trained athletes (ATH; 30 m/29 f) and a not previously infected healthy athletic control group (HC; 12 m/19 f). The ATH group undertook a sports medical examination which included extended blood analyses. Blood profiles with a total of 74 variables were assessed (blood counts, pro-/inflammatory and immunological markers, and micronutrients), and the ATH group was compared to the age-matched, vaccinated HC group with comparable athletic back grounds, though without previous SARS-CoV-2-infections. The ATH group showed lower IgG, Troponin-T levels, and they had a lower complement/acute-phase protein activation. Furthermore, Vitamin D levels were lower and electrolyte/micronutrient concentrations were higher in ATH. Soluble transferrin receptor as a marker of erythrocyte turnover was decreased whereas PTT as a coagulation marker was increased. Subgroup analyses according to sex revealed more differences between the women of the ATH and HC groups (for 25 different variables) than between the men (for 5 different variables), especially for immunological and metabolic variables. In particular, the immune system and electrolyte/micronutrient status should be observed frequently and sex-specifically in this athletic cohort.
